Ända sedan perspektivläran började utvecklas under renässansen har realistiska bilder fångade på målarduk utgjort stommen i den västerländska konsten. I slutet av 1800-talet vinnlade sig konstnärerna emellertid inte bara om att måla realistiskt utan också om att skapa bilder som återspeglade en värld mitt inne i en snabb industrialiseringsprocess. Kärnan i denna naturalistiska konst utgörs av vanliga människors liv i en tid av så stora sociala, ekonomiska och kulturella förändringar. Fattigdom och orättvisa är ofta förekommande motiv. Många konstnärer var bekymrade över att den traditionella bondekulturen höll på att försvinna och över den eländiga situationen bland städernas fabriksarbetare. Detta gav upphov till stor social och politisk oro i de flesta länder i Europa. Vardagens hjältar. Naturalismen i bildkonsten, fotografiet och filmen 1875-1918 utforskar förhållandet mellan olika konstformer som använde sig av en naturalistisk estetik: måleriet, filmen, teatern, fotografiet och litteraturen. Boken erbjuder en fräsch tolkning av hur de naturalistiska konstnärerna försökte förstå och förklara snabba och genomgripande förändringar i samtiden med hjälp av en estetik som var tänkt att fungera djupt inspirerande för konstnärer inom alla medier. Bokens huvudredaktör och medförfattare Gabriel P.Weisberg är professor i konsthistoria vid University of Minnesota i Minneapolis. han har skrivit ett flertal verk om 1800-tals- och tidig 1900-talskonst.

The Thorn in the Chrysanthemum

The Thorn in the Chrysanthemum

Mamoru Iga; Edwin S. Shneidman; David K. Reynolds

University of California Press
2018
pokkari
Japanese society is frequently held up to the Western world as a model of harmony and efficiency, but the price it pays tends to be overlooked. In a searching analysis that will fascinate students and admirers of Japan as much as it will inform psychologists and suicidologists, Mamoru Iga discusses the precise nature of the “thorn in the chrysanthemum,” a thorn that may hurt both the Japanese and the outsider who conducts business with them. The author, who was reared and educated in Japan, is uniquely qualified to interpret the value orientations of a society in which suicide is all too common. He finds that the traits leading to homogeneity and extreme adaptability in that society as a whole are the very traits that can produce painful reactions in the individual. Those traits are described as monism, groupism, authoritarianism, familism, and accommodationism, and together they comprise the Japanese “social character.” Because the individual’s behavior is based on the images, assumptions, and ideas about the world that make up his or her culture, conformism in the individual is one major manifestation of Japan’s social character. In Japan, the need to fill one’s socially prescribed role may make it doubly difficult to think independently and creatively and to find solutions for the resulting stress. Suicide notes and other personal documents reveal the painful cost of modern Japan’s success story, as the examination of individual suicides is related both to the theoretical framework of Durkheim’s types of suicide and to the sociological patterns that characterize suicide in Japan. It is in personal value orientations, however, that Iga finds the common ground between suicide and economic success. American readers will find especially interesting the contrast between value orientations in Japan and in the United States. Nearly the opposite of the Japanese traits described above, American values of rationalism, individualism, competition, and change create their own problems. There is much to be learned from this expert analysis of the problem of suicide in Japan. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1986.

Principles of CASE Tool Integration

Principles of CASE Tool Integration

Oxford University Press Inc
1994

Computer Aided Software Engineering tools typically support individual users in the automation of some task within a software development process. Used this way, CASE tools have undoubtedly helped many organisations in their efforts to develop better quality software to budget, within precedented time scales. This book will address the increasing activity within the software engineering community for automated support in the software development process. The authors integrate CASE tools into the overall software life cycle with emphasis on the following factors: scale=size and complexity; lack of maturity=limited expertise; diversity=many classes of users; technology base=extended operating system.

Mammon and the Pursuit of Empire Abridged Edition

Mammon and the Pursuit of Empire Abridged Edition

Lance Edwin Davis; Robert A. Huttenback

Cambridge University Press
1988
pokkari
Historians have so far made few attempts to assess directly the costs and benefits of Britain's investment in empire. This book presents answers to some of the key questions about the economics of imperialism: how large was the flow of finance to the empire? How great were the profits on empire investment? What were the social costs of maintaining the empire? Who received the profits, and who bore the costs? The authors show that colonial finance did not dominate British capital markets; returns from empire investment were not high in comparison to earnings in the domestic and foreign sectors; there is no evidence of continued exploitative profits; and empire profits were earned at a substantial cost to the taxpayer. They depict British imperialism as a mechanism to effect an income transfer from the tax-paying middle class to the elites in which the ownership of imperial enterprise was heavily concentrated, with some slight net transfer to the colonies in the process.
