In the present thesis, I ask why immanence (the world) and transcendence (God) has often been thought to be in conflict with each other, and attempt to think their relation differently. Both are done by interpreting immanence as revolving around the phenomenon of enjoyment. I argue that the Christians of the early Church saw detachment from worldly pleasures through ascetic practice as a requirement ...

In this paper we characterize the validity of the Hardy-type inequality &#8741 &#8741 &#8747 _s&#8734) h(z)dz &#8741 p,u,(0,t) &#8741 q,w,(=,&#8734≤ c&#8741h&#8741 1,v(0,&#8734) where 0 < p < ∞,0< q ≤ +∞, u, w and v are weight functions on (0,∞). It is pointed out that this characterization can be used to obtain new characterizations for the boundedness between weighted Lebesgue spaces ...

Denne studien har hatt som mål å undersøke hvordan elever og lærere ved musikklinjer opplever arbeid med økt selvverd i samspillfaget, og hvordan undervisningen kan legges til rette for å underbygge dette. Studiens teorigrunnlag bygger på to tradisjoner innen forskning på selvoppfatning: forventningstradisjonen og selvvurderingstradisjonen. Her vil teorier av Albert Bandura, Morris Rosenberg og ...

<p>Cod caught with bottom trawls and gillnets have often been associated with poor and variable quality, and little is known about how changes in gear design and fishing practices may influence the quality of fish caught by these two fishing gears. It is difficult, if not impossible, to improve catch quality if fish are damaged during the capture process. Therefore, preventing the deterioration of ...

There is considerable variation across North Germanic when it comes to the composition of noun phrases that contain a wh-word, i.e. interrogative noun phrases such as English which N, what N and what kind of N or exclamative noun phrases such as English what a N.

There has been growing discussion in Denmark regarding the decriminalisation of psychoactive drug use. In this context, we propose Axel Honneth’s theory of recognition as a useful approach to both understand the causes of dependency on psychoactive drugs and to provide an ethical lens through which to discuss whether drug use should be decriminalised or not. We propose that psychoactive drugs ...

Denne rapporten er en oppsummering av hovedtrekkene i forskningslitteraturen om barnevernets undersøkelsesarbeid. Rapporten inneholder oversikt over (i) erfaringer med bruk av utredningsmaler internasjonalt, (ii) risikovurderinger, (iii) brukernes erfaringer med barnevernundersøkelser og (iv) forhold som har betydning for barnevernets beslutninger etter en undersøkelse.

The degradation mechanisms of faecal pellets are still poorly understood, although they determine their contribution to vertical fluxes of carbon. The aim of this study was to attempt to understand the microbial (bacteria and protozooplankton) degradation of faecal pellets by measuring the faecal pellet carbon-specific degradation rate (FP-CSD) as an indicator of pellet degradation. ‘In situ’ and ...

The theory of oscillations can be studied from a mathematical point of view in terms of differential equations. The differential equation is written and then the solution or solutions worked out and mathematically analysed. Provided physical, economic, social, or other phenomena can be modelled in terms of equivalent differential equations, the solutions and results are applicable to all phenomena ...

The role of the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) employment specialist is a new type of occupation within mental healthcare. High turnover among employment specialists necessitates improvement in their recruitment and retention. One element that impacts retention is job satisfaction. We assessed the personality of 38 employment specialists (Big 5 Inventory-2) and measured job satisfaction ...
