    • Learning to aspire, aspiring to subvert: Namibian San youths' narratives about the future as mimetic work of resistance 

      Ninkova, Velina; Paksi, Attila (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-06)
      This article examines Namibian San youths’ aspirations about the future. Based on 170 essays, the analysis shows that disadvantaged San students aspire for future lives radically different from the lives of their families. We argue that San students have acquired the repertoire of “the good Namibian citizen” as a form of resistance through mimesis. These assertions create an opening for the projection ...

      Selvmordsraten er fremdeles høy i Norge, selv med velferdsstat og gode støtteordninger. I denne oppgaven undersøkes selvmord i forhold til sosial integrasjon i Norge i dag, ved hjelp av aggregerte data på kommunenivå og tidligere forskning. I tillegg vil Durkheims bidrag fra tidlig 1900-tall være til nytte for å undersøke selvmord mellom kommuner i forhold til sosial integrasjon og modernitetsbevegelsen. ...

    • Rupture: Exposing the Instability of a State Apparatus Through Poetic Descriptions of a Natural World 

      Dwyer, William F. III (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-23)
      The thesis uses the critical lens of Deleuze and Guattari on the poetry of George Gordon Byron, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Bobby Sands to illustrate the way natural elements deconstruct the power of a state apparatus by exposing it as a temporary social construct. I argue that literature creates the idea of a nation by perpetuating narratives that divide the world into borders; conversely, literature ...

      Jupiter, Michael Xavier Andrew (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-15)
      Engagement with the Gothic often brings readers into the realms of the unknown and that which is difficult to represent. In this thesis, I intend to convey to you the fin de siècle’s fascination with representing powerful women as monstrous, something that was analogous with the representations of the New Woman. Whilst there has been much research and discussions around the subject of gender in late ...

I oppgaven ses det på hvordan omgivelser og landskap kan være deltagende i betrakterens møte med skulpturen og på hvordan skulptur kan framheve omgivelsene -like mye som omgivelsene kan framheve skulpturen. Hva vi ser når vi betrakter en skulptur ...

      Hoefer, Hannah L. (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-30)

However, the focus on technical aspects of mine closure have ...

      Montoya Espín, David (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-07)
      A pesar de la cantidad de estudios que hay al respecto, no disponemos de una definición clara sobre la delimitación gramatical de los compuestos en español. Si bien hay cierto consenso sobre la adscripción gramatical de los compuestos univerbales, éste se desvanece en el instante en el que estas raíces léxicas se manifiestan de forma separada, como hombre clave o coche cama. Esta falta de consenso ...
