Esta tesis analiza la novela Casas vacías (2019) de Brenda Navarro desde una perspectiva socioliteraria y feminista, con el objetivo de mostrar cómo la obra desmitifica la maternidad como fuente de identidad y realización personal. A través de las voces de dos mujeres –una madre biológica y otra que secuestra a su hijo– la novela cuestiona los ideales de la “buena madre” y revela cómo las ...

This thesis explores the intersection of Norwegian extractivism and its colonial echoes in Barcarena, Pará, Brazil, with a focus on the impact of mining activities tied to Norsk Hydro’s Alunorte/Albras complex, specifically in the bauxite refining and aluminum production processes. Drawing on decolonial and activist research frameworks, this study critically examines the contradictions in Norway’s ...

Denne oppgaven diskuterer funn fra Avaldsnes, Karmøy k., med en «bricolage»-tilnærming. Det vil si at det teoretiske grunnlaget ble plukket fra forskjellige plasser. Fenomenlogi, objekt-orientert ontologi, filosofi, ting-teori og ikke-atroposentrisme er noen av de mest fremtredende vinklingene i den forbindelse. Istedenfor å kun gjøre en kulturhistorisk analyse av materialet fra Avaldsnes, blir det ...

Large volcanic eruptions strongly influence the internal variability of the climate system. Reliable estimates of the volcanic eruption response as simulated by climate models are needed to reconstruct past climate variability. Yet, the ability of models to represent the response to both single-eruption events and a combination of eruptions remains uncertain. We use the Community Earth System Model ...

I dagens samfunn utvikler teknologien seg med stormskritt. Dette gjelder både innenfor vitenskapen og naturvitenskapen. På bakgrunn av den økende teknologiske utviklingen i samfunnet, må samfunnet stadig finne nye måter å tilpasse seg hverdagen på, både i hvordan vi bruker teknologien og rettferdiggjør bruken av teknologien. Et eksempel på dette er bruken av genetisk matreale som sædceller og ...

Successful adoption of evidence-based primary prevention interventions by schools is important for public health but relies on multiple factors. Using a systems perspective enables the identification of the interconnectivity and feedback loops among these factors, which can facilitate or hinder adoption. This study aimed to conceptualize a system structure showing how adoption factors are interrelated, ...

This article presents characteristics of geological and tectonic structures of the Kuljuktau Mountains, mineralogical and geochemical features of its volcanic and intrusive rocks and associated mineralisation of critical elements. The Taskazgan graphite, Shaidaraz lithium, and Tozbulak high-purity quartz deposits, and new prospects for rare earth mineralisation have been identified as the most ...

Video games present a very distinct form of storytelling; while some games use the elements of interactivity and narrative as auxiliary features to one another, some of the greatest games blend these two facets to make interaction an intrinsic part of the narrative experience. This thesis focuses on how this is achieved through the controversial character Edelgard von Hresvelg in the video game Fire ...

This thesis investigates how chaos theory, as both scientific paradigm and literary metaphor, informs narrative structure, thematic development, and character formation in the works of Thomas Pynchon and Stephen King. Focusing primarily on The Crying of Lot 49 and “Entropy” by Pynchon and The Dark Tower series by King, the study traces the ways in which concepts such as entropy, strange attractors, ...
