Doctoral Dissertations. 1161. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1161 Notions of Self and Nation in French Author-Aviators of World War II: From Myth to Ambivalence Christopher Steven Kean, PhD University of Connecticut, 2016 The traditional image of wartime aviators in French culture is an idealized, mythical notion that is inextricably linked with an equally idealized and mythical notion of nationhood. The literary works of three French author-aviators from World War II – Antoine de Saint- Exupéry, Jules Roy, and Romain Gary – reveal an image of the aviator and the writer that operates in a zone between reality and imagination. The purpose of this study is to delineate the elements that make up what I propose is a more complex and even ambivalent image of both individual and nation. Through these three works – Pilote de guerre (Flight to Arras), La Vallée heureuse (The Happy Valley), and La Promesse de l’aube (Promise at Dawn) – this dissertation proposes to uncover not only the figures of individual narratives, but also the figures of “a certain idea of France” during a critical period of that country’s history.

Carlos Roldán López Madrid, Julio de 2015 INFORME DEL DIRECTOR DE LA TESIS. TITULO DE LA TESIS: FILOSOFIA Y ESTETICA DEL CUERPO EN EL CIRCO DESDE LA PERSPECTIVA DEL CONCEPTO DE BIOPODER. La tesis doctoral de D. Jorge Gallego Silva contextualiza adecuadamente el complejo pensamiento de Michel Foucault para desde esta contextualización responder a la vocación fundamental de toda su obra: Ser utilizado como una caja de herramientas. Michel Foucault analizó pormenorizadamente los dispositivos de subjetivación que nos llevaron a ser lo que somos. Con una especial incidencia en los procesos de normalización corporal sobre el conjunto de las poblaciones. La Tesis que aquí se presenta viene a desarrollar la premisa Foucaltiana de la existencia de los llamados espacios heterotópicos, siendo el circo uno de ellos, sin que el pensador francés desarrollará la razón de ello. De una forma coherente y sistematizada, rigurosamente adepta al legado genealógico de Michel Foucault, que es necesario conocer para entender no sólo que se investiga, sino sobre todo como se investiga, la tesis aquí presentada presenta el circo como espacio heterotópico a través de un estudio casuístico de los dispositivos de subjetivación o técnicas del cuidado de sí que los trabajadores circenses aplican sobre sus propios cuerpos. La tesis doctoral que aquí se presenta cumple, a mi juicio, con todos los requisitos de fondo y forma para proceder a su lectura y defensa como el procedimiento otorga.

With a billion users on Facebook and Twitter, social networks have become indispensable. Internet users spend more time on these platforms than on any other site. Today, social networks are used by numerous NGOs to spread their ideas to a larger public and to combat apathy. They enable the beneficiaries, employees and partners of Terre des hommes ( Tdh ) to have a voice. Utilised in the right way, they will help promote the work done by Tdh by informing the public about the situation of children around the world and permitting the public to present new concerns.
