It was at this time, he tells us, that "Weiz- sacker, like so many young German idealists, mistakenly believed at that time that possibly Hitler and his movement, despite certain features of it which Weizsacker himself repudiated, might be the preliminary symptoms of something really admirable, the beginning of a social and religious revival in revolt against the spirit of commerce and arid intellectualism. He made no secret of his hopes in this respect. ." Jungk goes on to tell us that subsequently Weizsacker "got over his illusions about National Socialism", though "this fact was only known to his most intimate friends in Germany". Just as well, in view of his role as one of the directors of the German uranium project! Similarly, Heisenberg, another of Dr. Jungk's secret anti-Nazis, became Director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physics, succeeding Peter Debye, the Dutch physicist, who escaped to the U.S. after being required either to become a German citizen or to publish a book in favour of National Socialism. Dr. Jungk is forced to admit that "this decision on Heisenberg's part was much criticised by his physicist friends abroad. ."

Study Program of English, Department of Languages and Literature, Faculty of Cultural Studies, Universitas Brawijaya, Malang. Supervisor : Iis Nur Rodliyah; Co-supervisor : Istiqomah Wulandari. Keywords : semantics, connotative meaning, song lyrics, Linkin Park and A Thousand Suns album Language is a fundamental device used by people to communicate. A sentence or an utterance in which people use to express their feelings and thoughts is generally containing either literal meaning or non-literal meaning. One kind of non-literal meaning is connotative meaning which is subjective and not perceived the same way by the speakers of a language. This research focuses on analysing the connotative meaning contained in Linkin Park’s song lyrics by using Leech’s theory (1990). This research is aimed to show the interpretation of the connotations found in the song lyrics, the messages of the songs, and the contribution of the connotations to the messages. The problems of the study are (1) what are the expressions containing connotative meanings in the song lyrics of Linkin Park’s A Thousand Suns album, (2) what are the messages of the songs in Linkin Park’s A Thousand Suns album, and (3) how do the connotations contribute to the messages conveyed in the songs.

The consequences of a nuclear test are far from easy to bear, however: economic sanctions can be crippling and nuclear capability automatically makes one a nuclear target. Why, then, do states test nuclear weapons? This thesis aims to determine the answer to this question using India as a model. It is well known that India tested nuclear weapons in 1974 and in 1998, but less well known are the near-tests of 1983, 1995, and 1996. This thesis examines the situation in these years and the details of the nuclear decisions based on four hypotheses: technical concerns, security and power, domestic politics, and norms and ideas.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study a Thousand Splendid Suns Is an Originally English Novel Written by Khaled Ho
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study A Thousand Splendid Suns is an originally English novel written by Khaled Hosseini. It was first published on May 22, 2007 by Riverhead Books, a member of Penguin Group (USA) Inc, New York. It consists of 384 pages and 51 chapters, with ISBN 978-1-59448-950-1 (first edition, hardcover). The title itself comes from a poem about Kabul by Saib-e-Tabrizi, a seventeenth-century Persian poet, who wrote it after a visit to the city left him deeply impressed. Hosseini was searching for English translations of poems about Kabul, to be used in a scene where a character‟s sadness that caused by leaving his beloved city, when he found this particular verse. He realized that he had found not only the right line for the scene, but also a remaining title in the phrase “a thousand splendid suns” which appears in the next-to-last stanza. The poem was translated from Farsi by Dr. Josephine Davis. It refers to a poem in which the city of Kabul was described as having a thousand splendid suns. It also is a symbol for Mariam who “is in Laila's own heart, where she shines with the bursting radiance of a thousand suns” (ATSS, 2007: 246). Hosseini began his writing by his first novel, The Kite Runner, in March of 2001. In 2003, it was published and has since become an international bestseller, published in 70 countries. His second novel, A Thousand Splendid Suns was 1 2 published in May of 2007, in 60 countries (http://www.khaledhosseini.com/ hosseini-bio.html).

  • Download Minutes to Midnight Full Album Minutes to Midnight
    download minutes to midnight full album Minutes to Midnight. Damned if they do, damned if they don't -- that was the conundrum facing Linkin Park when it came time to deliver Minutes to Midnight, their third album. It had been four years since their last, 2003's Meteora, which itself was essentially a continuation of the rap-rock of their 2000 debut, Hybrid Theory, the blockbuster that was one of the biggest rock hits of the new millennium. On that album, Linkin Park sounded tense and nervous, they sounded wiry -- rap-rock without the maliciousness that pulsed through mock-rockers like Limp Bizkit. Linkin Park seemed to come by their alienation honestly, plus they had hooks and a visceral power that connected with millions of listeners, many of whom who were satisfied by the familiarity of Meteora. They may have been able to give their fans more of the same on their sophomore effort, but Linkin Park couldn't do the same thing on their third record: they would seem like one-trick ponies, so they'd be better off to acknowledge their advancing age and try to mature, or broaden their sonic palette. Yet like many other hard rockers, they were the kind of band whose audience either didn't want change or outgrew the group -- and considering that it had been a full seven years between Hybrid Theory and Minutes to Midnight, many fans who were on the verge of getting their driver's license in 2000 were now leaving college and, along with it, adolescent angst. So, Linkin Park decided to embrace the inevitable and jumped headfirst into maturity on Minutes to Midnight, which meant that poor Mike Shinoda was effectively benched, rapping on just two songs.
