"Antavat anteeksi ovenvieret" : Matjoi Plattosen kuolinriittikuvaukset siirtymäriittiteorian valossa
2019
Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan suistamolaiselta itkijältä Matjoi Plattoselta vuosina 1908−1920 tallennettuja kuolinrituaalien kuvauksia ja niihin liittyviä itkuvirsiä siirtymäriittiteorian avulla. Tutkimuksen aineiston Plattosen kanssa ovat tuottaneet Matti Kaisla, U. T. Sirelius ja A. O. Väisänen. Tutkimuksessa kiinnitetään huomiota erityisesti rituaalisen itkemisen merkitykseen kuolinrituaalien osana. Yksilön tai ryhmän sosiaalisen kategorisen muutoksen yleismaailmallisesti kolmeen vaiheeseen jakavan siirtymäriittiteorian kehitti etnologi Arnold van Gennep (1873−1957). Hän väitti, että rituaaliset seremoniat, jotka liittyvät ihmiselämän tärkeimpiin muutoksiin, eroavat toisistaan eri ku…
Le silence des fous chez Zola et Maupassant
2017
Itis difficult to define all the meanings and connotations of silence depicted in literary works. In the 19th century, where the Realism and the Naturalism paid much attention to the study of both physical and mental illnesses, silence was considered as one of the distinctive signs of madness. The paper analyzes four examples of this phenomenon in selected Zola s and Maupassant s texts (novels and short stories) whose characters, all mad or maniac, embody various aspects of the silence regarded as a pathological condition of a human being.
The sirocco chambers: passive cooling structures in the XVI century Palermo area
2014
In the past centuries, the plain surrounding the city of Palermo saw the construction of tens of suburban manor houses, called villas, which were referred to as “places of delight” for the amenities they offered during the good season. These architectural machines were built by aristocrats to make living in the countryside more pleasant and to exhibit their families’ richness and power. Among the delights, the Sirocco rooms were very common in Palermo from the Renaissance, and especially beyond to the XVIII century. They were artificial subterranean structures, built close to a water spring in order to reproduce the pleasant conditions of freshness that could be experienced in a natural cav…
Smart Technology for the passive house
2013
Planning for sustainable policies aimed at identifying Smart urban spaces is determined by the parameters of Smart Cities model that encourage the production of intelligent building for construction energy efficient. The proposed article analyzes the effectiveness of the passive house in the Mediterranean area, offered by traditional building techniques, proposing a re-reading technology for the detection of a smart design methodology that can lead to the use of technologies with high energy efficiency.
Multispectral filter arrays: Recent advances and practical implementation
2014
Thanks to some technical progress in interferencefilter design based on different technologies, we can finally successfully implement the concept of multispectral filter array-based sensors. This article provides the relevant state-of-the-art for multispectral imaging systems and presents the characteristics of the elements of our multispectral sensor as a case study. The spectral characteristics are based on two different spatial arrangements that distribute eight different bandpass filters in the visible and near-infrared area of the spectrum. We demonstrate that the system is viable and evaluate its performance through sensor spectral simulation. Multispectral filter arrays: Recent advan…
Self-compassion and social functioning of people – research review
2015
Abstract Self-compassion is considered to be a healthy and adaptive attitude towards oneself, occurring both as a feature, as well as a state. Self-compassionate attitude towards oneself is composed of: a) kindness and understanding given to oneself b) mindfulness of one’s own experiences and c) a sense of community of experiences with humanity. Compassion towards oneself is structurally and functionally distinct from the self-commiseration and self-pity that lead to worse adaptation. Research shows that self-compassion is associated with better regulation of negative emotions. Neff (2003 a) in her theoretical assumption states that due to more effective emotion regulation , people with a h…
Decomposing issue patterns in crisis communication: the case of the lost airliner
2018
This research explores the relation between a crisis and public discussion on related issues. In organisational crisis communication, a singleissue strategy is often proposed. Such a strategy, however, may not be adequate in more complex crises where the crisis lifecycle is likely to encompass shorter lifecycles of issues that generate media attention. Decomposing the online crisis debate into a pattern of issues supports understanding of public perceptions, and hence of crisis response and communication. This is investigated through an analysis of Facebook posts prompted by the loss of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 in 2014. The analysis shows that during the life of the crisis a variety o…
Paysages de la solitude féminine : Flaubert, Zola, Maupassant
2019
The paper analyses three cases of feminine solitude as depicted in three novels belonging to the Realist and Naturalist movement. Flaubert’s Emma Bovary considers herself superior to the others who neither understand her nor see who she really is, and thus suffers during all her life and finally commits suicide. Zola’s Hélène Grandjean (One Page of Love) is not aware of the falseness of her life mode of an honest widow incapable of having a passionate love affair, and this unawareness costs her the life of her child. Maupassant’s Christiane Andermatt (Mont-Oriol), an aristocrat married to a Jewish banker in order to repair the family’s fortune, has an affair with a lady-killer who abandons …
Le dévoilement du sens à travers les avatars différents de la féminité chez Marguerite Duras
2016
Madness is an inherent quality of female protagonists in the prose of Marguerite Duras. It manifests itself through melancholy, sadness, loneliness, misunderstanding or absence arising from abandonment. The behaviour of female characters, marked by distress or “the disease of death”, is irrational, nonsensical and difficult to understand. Their attitude defies logic and attempts to capture this specificity of writing focused on the emotive sphere, on what is inexpressible. This article discusses the perception of femininity and its various incarnations, manifesting themselves through specific language, sexuality and obsessions inscribed in the nature of the weaker sex. The destruction of pe…
Development of microfluidics for sorting of carbon nanotubes
2018
Sorting of carbon nanotubes by their chirality is the current bottleneck in the way to their broad employment based on their exceptional electronic and optical properties. Despite the extensive effort, there is no known method, which would result in really pure chirality ensembles. Previously reported sorting protocols result in enrichment rather than in sorting, alter electronic structure, and suffer from low yield. This is mostly due to the statistical approach, where the nanotubes with mixed chiralities are treated as a set. In this thesis, we propose a new sorting technique based on nanotube-by-nanotube compartmelization, characterization, and sorting in a continuously running droplet-b…
