  • Podolak Multifunctional Riverscapes
    Multifunctional Riverscapes: Stream restoration, Capability Brown’s water features, and artificial whitewater By Kristen Nicole Podolak A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Professor Louise Mozingo Professor Vincent H. Resh Spring 2012 i Abstract Multifunctional Riverscapes by Kristen Nicole Podolak Doctor of Philosophy in Landscape Architecture and Environmental Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor G. Mathias Kondolf, Chair Society is investing in river restoration and urban river revitalization as a solution for sustainable development. Many of these river projects adopt a multifunctional planning and design approach that strives to meld ecological, aesthetic, and recreational functions. However our understanding of how to accomplish multifunctionality and how the different functions work together is incomplete. Numerous ecologically justified river restoration projects may actually be driven by aesthetic and recreational preferences that are largely unexamined. At the same time river projects originally designed for aesthetics or recreation are now attempting to integrate habitat and environmental considerations to make the rivers more sustainable. Through in-depth study of a variety of constructed river landscapes - including dense historical river bend designs, artificial whitewater, and urban stream restoration this dissertation analyzes how aesthetic, ecological, and recreational functions intersect and potentially conflict. To explore how aesthetic and biophysical processes work together in riverscapes, I explored the relationship between one ideal of beauty, an s-curve illustrated by William Hogarth in the 18th century and two sets of river designs: 18th century river designs in England and late 20th century river restoration designs in North America.

  • Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Transforming the Law of One: Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath from a Kristevan Perspective A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Areen Ghazi Khalifeh School of Arts, Brunel University November 2010 ii Abstract A recent trend in the study of Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath often dissociates Confessional poetry from the subject of the writer and her biography, claiming that the artist is in full control of her work and that her art does not have naïve mimetic qualities. However, this study proposes that subjective attributes, namely negativity and abjection, enable a powerful transformative dialectic. Specifically, it demonstrates that an emphasis on the subjective can help manifest the process of transgressing the law of One. The law of One asserts a patriarchal, monotheistic law as a social closed system and can be opposed to the bodily drives and its open dynamism. This project asserts that unique, creative voices are derived from that which is individual and personal and thus, readings of Confessional poetry are in fact best served by acknowledgment of the subjective. In order to stress the subject of the artist in Confessionalism, this study employed a psychoanalytical Kristevan approach. This enables consideration of the subject not only in terms of the straightforward narration of her life, but also in relation to her poetic language and the process of creativity where instinctual drives are at work. This study further applies a feminist reading to the subject‘s poetic language and its ability to transgress the law, not necessarily in the political, macrocosmic sense of the word, but rather on the microcosmic, subjective level.

  • The Potential of Tourism in the Prešov County Regions
    Folia geographica 14 Prešov 2009 THE POTENTIAL OF tourism IN THE PREŠOV COUNTY REGIONS Martin ROSIČ1, Radoslav KLAMáR2 Abstract: Slovakia has suitable natural and cultural-historical conditions for tourism that could help the economic situation to improve here. The article is concerned with the potential of tourism in the Prešov County regions. The potential is evaluated in the medium-term and long-term horizons for particular activities of tourism, but also for each region of tourism in Prešov Region. The second part of the report is concerned with the evaluation of basic indicators of accommodation facilities, which are the part of the material and technical basis of tourism and a precondition for implementation of tourism. Key words: potential of tourism(t), activity of t, form of t, type of t, regionalization INTRODUCTION tourism has become an inseparable part of the inhabitants’ lifestyle and standard of living. It fulfills a priority function in providing for the recuperation of human physical and spiritual powers by means of recreational and other social activities performed in people’s free time. the recreational-health function, representing one of the significant forms of useful free time utilization, is important and even principal for participants in tourism. Its position increases in proportion to the inhabitants’ participation in tourism on the one hand, and to the worsening quality of the environment on the other hand. besides this function, tourism is also characterized by a cultural-cognitive function and, with the development of science and technology, also a scientific-information function. (Mariot, 1983). Nowadays, tourism at international level is evaluated as a significant economic branch with a powerful influence on the economy of the state and its individual regions.
