Helena Kolody, carbono & diamante: uma biografia ilustrada
Get PDFTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em LiteraturaHelena Kolody, carbono & diamante - uma biografia ilustrada conta a vida da escritora Helena Kolody, a partir de sua inscrição na literatura, questionando sua identidade, o mundo que a cercava e o sentido de sua existência. Equivale a dizer: em sua lírica, reflexões e sentimentos se entretecem a partir de uma matéria pessoal e localizada. Da estação ferroviária à estação tubo; da Ucrânia ao centro de Curitiba; de Paisagem interior a Reika; do século XIX ao século XXI, a literatura de Helena Kolody gerencia sua presença na consolidação do binômio arte-vida. O retrato da autora acaba se constituindo também por meio de farto aparato iconográfico; pelos mais de quinhentos textos críticos elencados e por sua obra completa. Fragmentação deliberadamente assumida, a pessoa se revela em sua inteireza.Helena Kolody, carbon & diamond - an illustrated biography tells the life of Helena Kolody, from her very insertion in literature, as it questions her identity, the world surrounding her, and the meaning of her existence. That is equivalent to saying that in her poetry there is the intermingling of reflections and feelings that derive from personal and localized material. From the railroad station to the tube-shaped bus stops; from Ukraine to downtown Curitiba; from Paisagem interior to Reika; from the nineteenth century to the twenty-first century, Helena Kolody's literature guarantees her presence in the consolidation of the art/life binomial. The portrait of the author ends up by also being made up of an abundant iconographic apparatus, of the over five hundred critical texts listed, and of her complete work. The person, although deliberately accepting her own fragmentation, reveals herself in her entireness
Transient observations : the textualizing of St Helena through five hundred years of colonial discourse
No full textThis thesis explores the textualizing of the South Atlantic island of St Helena (a
British Overseas Territory) through an analysis of the relationship between
colonizing practices and the changing representations of the island and its
inhabitants in a range of colonial 'texts', including historiography, travel writing,
government papers, creative writing, and the fine arts.
Part I situates this thesis within a critical engagement with post-colonial
theory and colonial discourse analysis primarily, as well as with the recent
'linguistic turn' in anthropology and history. In place of post-colonialism's rather
monolithic approach to colonial experiences, I argue for a localised approach to
colonisation, which takes greater account of colonial praxis and of the continuous
re-negotiation and re-constitution of particular colonial situations.
Part II focuses on a number of literary issues by reviewing St Helena's
historiography and literature, and by investigating the range of narrative tropes
employed (largely by travellers) in the textualizing of St Helena, in particular
with respect to recurrent imaginings of the island in terms of an earthly Eden.
Part III examines the nature of colonial 'possession' by tracing the island's
gradual appropriation by the Portuguese, Dutch and English in the sixteenth and
early seventeenth century and the settlement policies pursued by the English
East India Company in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century.
Part IV provides an account of the changing perceptions, by visitors and
colonial officials alike, of the character of the island's inhabitants (from the late
eighteenth to the early twentieth century) and assesses the influence that these
perceptions have had on the administration of the island and the political status of
its inhabitants (in the mid- to late twentieth century).
Part V, the conclusion, reviews the principal arguments of my thesis by
addressing the political implications of post-colonial theory and of my own
research, while also indicating avenues for further research.
A localised and detailed exploration of colonial discourse over a period of
nearly five hundred years, and a close analysis of a consequently wide range of
colonial 'texts', has confirmed that although colonising practices and
representations are far from monolithic, in the case of St Helena their continuities
are of as much significance as their discontinuities
Novel as a genre in Tomas Espedal's work
No full textThe master thesis discusses novel as a geme. The first, theoretical part focuses on general characteristics ofthe studied geme, e.g. problems of defining the geme, theme and language constituting components, comparison with other genres as well as typology and history of novel. AH mentioned characteristics are afterwards supposed to work as a basis for the practical analysis of selected work of the Norwegian author Tomas Espedal. The analysis concentrates on answering the question if the studied works can be considered as a novel

Oncocnemis helena Mustelin, NEW SPECIES
No full textOncocnemis helena Mustelin, NEW SPECIES Figs. 4, 29 a, 29 b, and 66 Type material. Holotype: Male, Barton Flats, San Bernardino Mountains, San Bernardino County, California, 1980 m, 21 July 2001, T. & S. Mustelin. Paratypes: 4 males, 4 females. San Bernardino County: Same data as holotype (2 males and 4 females), same locality, 14 July 2004, T. & S. Mustelin (1 male). Los Angeles County: Buckhorn Flats, 30 June 1954 (1 male). Holotype and genitalic slide # 270 /TM deposited in SDNHM, paratypes in LACM and in the private collections of J. Troubridge and the author. Etymology. The specific name is derived from three sources: it represents a permutation of the name of its closest relative, Oncocnemis homogena Grote, 1877; in Greek mythology, the beautiful Helena was kidnapped and taken far from home (thus sparking the War of Troy), akin to the geographical separation of O. helena populations from those of O. homogena; and this is also the first name of the first author's oldest daughter. Diagnosis. The new species is related to O. homogena. It has a pale yellowish ground color with dark dusting in the median field and black maculation, while O. homogena is brownish gray, often with a reddish tone in the median field. Oncocnemis helena has a cream prothoracic collar (Fig. 4 a), weaker antemedial and postmedial lines (Fig. 4 b, c), a very pale hindwing (Fig. 4 d), and the underside of the wings are mostly pale, not gray as in O. homogena. O. helena apparently is separated from O. homogena by the Mojave Desert; it flies in open pine forest at 2000 m above sea level, while O. homogena flies at much lower elevations in arid desert areas. Thus, the two species probably use different larval food plants. Description. Antenna filiform in both sexes; eyes naked, lashes in front of eyes prominent; palps covered in long cream colored scales mixed with a few dark scales; frons covered in black hairs with cream tips, top of head cream colored, black around eye; prothoracic collar covered in cream colored scales with a dark transverse stripe near head, collar somewhat raised; tegula and thorax covered in mix of cream and black long hairs and scales; venter covered in long pale yellowish gray hairs; legs concolorous; tarsi black with cream scales at joints; abdomen covered in pale cream hairs and scales, longer creamcolored hair tufts at base; venter same color; forewing length 17–18 mm; forewing ground color pale yellow; basal line single, black, absent on lower half of wing; antemedial line single, black, slightly wavy; median field with pale brown scales intermixed with ground color; orbicular spot round, faintly outlined in gray, filled with pale yellow; reniform spot kidneyshaped, outlined in gray, filled with pale yellow, center with few tan scales; claviform spot a few gray scales; postmedial line single, thin gray to absent, incurved between veins, close to reniform spot; space beyond postmedial line pale yellow, intermixed with back scales distally; subterminal line black, serrated; space beyond pale yellow; terminal line black chevrons; fringe pale yellow with two gray lines; ventral side pale yellowish gray with broad marginal dark shade; discal spot gray; hindwing inner two thirds offwhite with gray marginal shade; discal spot small, gray; fringe whitish with dark stripe; ventral side similar to dorsal side, but marginal shade narrower. Male genitalia (Figs. 29 a and 29 b): Uncus stout, curved, apex a pointed claw; juxta oval, thin; sacculus small; valve length 3.3 mm, maximum width 0.95 mm, broadest at middle, outer half dorsally curved; cucullus width 0.95 mm, apex pointed dorsally, clasper width 0.2 mm at middle, length 0.55 mm, slightly Scurved, with sharp, clawlike apex; aedeagus length 3.2 mm, width basally 0.65 mm, distally 0.5 mm; everted vesica length approximately 5.0 mm, width 1.3 mm at base, 1.0 mm at middle, tapering at apex, slightly Scurved, curves 80 ° at apex, basal patch of approximately fifteen 0.5–0.7 mm long stout spines, another patch of approximately twenty to twenty five 0.1–0.3 mm long spines, most of dorsal side of vesica densely covered in thin 0.4–0.5 mm long spines, at midlength a dense, ventral patch of very stout, 0.5 –1.0 mm long spines; apically a small spine patch and a stout 0.7 mm long spine. Female genitalia (Fig. 66): Ovipositor lobes 0.75 mm long, rounded, decorated with a row of stout spines; posterior apophyses 3.9 mm long; anterior apophyses 2.4 mm long; ductus bursae 2.6 mm long and 0.15 mm wide at narrowest constriction, weakly sclerotized, slowly widens and angles to right at junction with corpus bursae; corpus bursae consists of two large oval sacks connected as an upsidedown U, left side (perhaps corresponding to appendix bursae) larger, 5.2 x 1.5 mm, and drawn to point distal end, right portion (corpus bursae) 3.0 x 1.6 mm, oval, with longitudinal stripes. Distribution and habitat. Only 10 specimens are known the type series plus one from Mono County and one from Inyo County, both of the latter taken at high elevations in the southern Sierra Nevada. The type series consists mostly of freshly emerged specimens taken the same night with a blacklight trap at the type locality, which is an opening in a dry pine forest. All known specimens were collected in late June and July.Published as part of Mustelin, Tomas, 2006, Taxonomy of southern California Erebidae and Noctuidae (Lepidoptera) with descriptions of twenty one new species, pp. 1-47 in Zootaxa 1278 on pages 11-13, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.27350

Franciszek Kostrzewski, warszawska publiczność i Helena Modrzejewska
No full textThe article describes a little-known collage documenting the huge success of Helena Modrzejewska’s first guest performances in Warsaw in October and November of 1868. The author of the Benefis Heleny Modrzejewskiej (a collage kept in the collection of the National Museum in Warsaw) is Franciszek Kostrzewski. This excellent cartoonist and “pencil humorist” presented a triumphant procession of the actress’ admirers. He used a then fashionable technique of combining satirical drawings with pasted fragments of photographs. The participants of the ceremonial procession include mainly representatives of the Warsaw press and theatre scene. The author of the article tried to decipher the people portrayed. She managed to identify and describe nearly 30 people who participated in this extraordinary event, which was Modrzejewska’s Warsaw debut
