    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoO propósito desta dissertação é analisar as atitudes de Dylan Thomas perante a morte, expressas em dezoito de seus poemas, e compará-las com a tradição cristã protestante, buscando pontos de similaridade e pontos de divergência. O tema da morte é importante e central na poesia de Dylan Thomas. Em minha análise eu concluo que os poemas de Dylan Thomas apresentam uma atitude ambígua diante da morte, algumas vezes sugerindo uma certa resistência, às vezes sugerindo uma calma aceitação, sempre expressa em termos de metáforas e alusões à tradição cristã. A visão de Dylan Thomas da morte pode ser basicamente entendida em termos de uma reabsorção do indivíduo nos elementos da natureza, contrastando assim com a noção cristã de ressurreicão da carne. No primeiro capítulo eu apresento a visão cristã da morte conforme é descrita na Bíblia, na teologia de Martinho Lutero, em João Calvino, e na filosofia de Soren Kierkegaard, mostrando que a visão cristã da morte é resultado de um longo desenvolvimanto histórico. No segundo capítulo apresento a análise dos poamas de Dylan Thomas, tentando focalizar suas atitudes diante da morte do outro, da morte do eu, e da morte da raca humana. E na conclusão apresento uma comparação entre as atitudes de Dylan Thomas e os valores da tradição cristã, mostrando que o poeta usa símbolos e conceitos cristãos mas que os reinterpreta de acordo com sua visão da vida e da morte, e de acordo também com seus propósitos estéticos

    The Richmond-Tweed region: an economic profile

    Examines the Richmond-Tweed region in New South Wales, looking at its administrative and productive structure and the influences that currently bear on it. Introduction The Richmond-Tweed region (also known as the Northern Rivers) has experienced substantial changes. During the nineteenth century the driving force in production and employment, throughout the region, was primary production. During the twentieth century, the region effectively divided into two: a relatively urbanised coastal strip growing faster in association with neighbouring Queensland, and an inland zone that retains more of the region’s rural origins. In both portions of the region, nevertheless, the services sector has emerged as the predominant area of employment. This e-brief examines the region, looking at its administrative and productive structure and the influences that currently bear on it. There are at least four outstanding features which define the region: the sub-tropical climate; the long length of coastline (around 120 kilometres); the significant tracts of rainforest (preserved in areas such as the Mount Warning, Nightcap and Border Ranges national parks); and its proximity to Queensland. In this e-brief the name “Richmond-Tweed” is used primarily because that is the nomenclature adopted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) in its new regional geography, which is relied on here for labour force data. Geographically, this region is very nearly identical to the Regional Development Australia (RDA) Northern Rivers region: with the exception that the RDA region includes the Clarence Valley LGA, which the ABS “Richmond-Tweed” SA4 does not
