    • Facebook, dokumenter og virkeligheten. Et teoretisk perspektiv på dokumentutvikling 

      Mikalsen, Lill-Iren Gabrielsen (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2014-05-15)
      Oppgaven tar for seg dokumentbegrepet utvikling, fra tidligste kjente betydning til de dokumenter vi finner i Facebook i dag. Gjennom analyser av eksempler fra et utvalg offentlige institusjoners Facebooksider og institusjonenes bruk av dokumenter innenfor Facebook, ser vi på hvordan den utbredte bruken av sosiale medier kan påvirke vår oppfatning av dokumenter og virkeligheten.

    • Facilitating For a Conscious Awareness of Oneself Through Literature. Using 2001: A Space Odyssey as a facilitator in the classroom for enhancing student’s perspective taking and capacity to mentally time travel 

      Skare, Vebjørn Elvemo (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2022-05-15)
      This thesis aims to show how literature can be used to facilitate a deeper understanding of ourselves and our imaginative mind, inside and outside the classroom. The novel that will be used as an example is Arthur C. Clarke’s renowned 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). The novel revolves around Clarke’s worldview and prospections about the future, musing on the existential questions which have puzzled ...

      Gaare, Haakon (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-14)
      There are innumerable methodologies linked with instructed LT, each of which are based on whatever theoretical SLA rationale a researcher or teacher should fancy at a given time. In line with recent trends regarding learner-focused instruction and emphasis on communication and interaction, there has been a shift away from traditional teaching approaches linked with a structural linguistic syllabus. ...

Booth to provide a theoretical framework for analysis. The study focuses on two classic dystopian novels, George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451. It analyzes how these novels invite reflections on ...

    • «The Fair Weather which All the Signs in the Sky Seem to Promise at Sea»: Water as a Soul’s Topography and a Discursive Memory Connector in the Trials of Persiles and Sigismunda 

      Poza Diéguez, Mónica (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Cervantes, en <i>Los trabajos de Persiles y Sigismunda</i>, emplea dinámicamente memoria e imaginatio y moderniza el género, por medio del uso de la <i>imitatio compuesta</i>. El agua, que en el Persiles adopta, entre otras, la forma del ‘mar’, los ‘ríos’, pero también del ‘hielo’, <i>vincula</i> las diversas aventuras que se suceden, así como el fluir narrativo, memorístico e imaginario, para ...

    • Familjen som pesthärd: Sjukdom och förbrytelse i Vigdis Hjorths Arv og miljø 

      Johnsson, Henrik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-19)
      This article conducts a close reading of Vigdis Hjorth’s novel <i>Arv og miljø</i> (2016). I argue that the novel is informed by an imagery of contagion and disease which is used to express a theme of dysfunctional familial relationships. A related imagery of boundaries and cleanliness is used to relay the narrator’s experience of having been sexually assaulted by her father. In closing, I maintain ...

    • Farsfigurer, skeive døtre og voldens egendynamikk i "The Last of Us: Part II" 

      Pötzsch, Holger (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-26)
      Denne artikkelen gir en fortolkning av Naughty Dogs skytespill <i>The Last of Us: Part II</i> (2020). Med utgangspunkt i Judith Butlers kritikk av krigsdiskurser viser jeg hvordan spillet rekalibrerer kjønnsnormer, undergraver skytesjangerens konvensjoner og fremtvinger en kritisk granskning av vold og eskalering. Gjennom måten spillet avslører voldens ødeleggende egendynamikk og introduserer skeive ...

    • Fear in Detective Stories: The representation of crime as threatening or nonthreatening in A Study in Scarlet and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde 

      Hovstøl, Charlotte (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-11)
      This thesis explores the representation of crime and fear in detective stories. I will particularly look at this in Arthur Conan Doyle’s A Study in Scarlet and Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Three main concepts will be used to analyze these texts: the detective novel as a genre, the presence of an unreliable police force, and the elements of a sensation novel. ...

      Høgetveit, Åsne Ø. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      In this article I will discuss a number of (post-) Soviet sci-fi films, stretching over a hundred years or so, to look into what function (post-) Soviet female superhuman characters have, and what they might tell us about fundamental discussions of humanity and its relation to technology, identity and gender. By looking into the traditional function of women in Russian and Soviet culture, the Marxist ...

      Skare, Roswitha (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)

With help of 2 cuesheets - probably compiled in 1922 - the music of one scene ("Winter") is examined, before the article takes a look into 2 original scores composed by Stanley Silvermanand Timothy Brock for either VHS or DVD editions of the film. It turns out that these original scores give much more priority to the pictures than the ...

    • Final devoicing and vowel lengthening in Friulian : a representational approach 

      Iosad, Pavel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      This paper proposes an account of final devoicing in Friulian which relies on contrastive feature specification and feature geometry to explicate the connection between final devoicing and vowel lengthening. It is proposed that obstruents which are the outcome of final devoicing are phonologically distinct from true voiceless obstruents, being completely unspecified for laryngeal features. It is ...
