The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. A Gendered Undertaking: The Feminisation of After-Death Work in Aotearoa New Zealand A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology Massey University Palmerston North Aotearoa New Zealand Bronwyn Watson 2005 ii iii Abstract Long after women have successfully entered many other occupational fields once considered to be 'men's work' they have remained a small minority in after-death work in the fu neral industry in Aotearoa New Zealand. Women and their contributions to the funeral industry have been excluded, marginalised and devalued. In the last decade, however, there has been a marked increase in the numbers of women funeral directors and embalmers. In the same decade, the occupational specialism of funeral celebrant, comprising a large majority of women, has been established to fu lfila growing demand fo r non-religious funeral ceremonies. This thesis examines the means by which men have excluded and marginalised women from the fu neral industry in Aotearoa New Zealand. More importantly; it examines the ways women are successfully overcoming exclusion and marginalisation by men. To this end 1 analyse research material from a range of sources. These include: unstructured interviews with funeral directors, embalmers, celebrants, clerical workers and members of clergy; my observations from previous funeral industry research and fifteen years' experience as organist in the industry; plus data fr om the association magazines of the Funeral Directors Association of New Zealand.

  • The Pentagon Labyrinth Aims to Help Both Newcomers and Seasoned Observers Learn How to Grapple with the Problems of National Defense
    The Pentagon Labyrinth aims to help both newcomers and seasoned observers learn how to grapple with the problems of national defense. In tended for readers who are frustrated with the supercial nature of the debate on national securit y, this handbook takes advantage of the insights of ten unique prof essionals, each with decades of experience in the armed services, the Pe ntagon bureaucrac y, C ongress, the intelligence community, military history, journalism and other disciplines . The short but provocative essays will help you to : • identify the decay— moral, mental and physical—in America ’s defenses, • understand the various “tribes ” that run bureaucratic life in the Pe ntagon, • appreciate what too many def ense journalists are not doing , but should, • conduct rst rate national security oversight instead of second rate theate r, • separate careerists from ethical prof essionals in senior militar y and civilian ranks , • learn to critique strategies , distinguishing the useful from the agenda-driven, • recognize the per vasive inuence of money in defense decision-mak ing , • unravel the budget games the Pe ntagon and Congress love to pla y, • understand how to sort good weapons from bad—and avoid high cost failures , and • re fo rm the failed def ense procurement system without changing a single law. The handbook ends with lists of contac ts , readings and Web sites carefully selected to facilitate fur ther understanding of the above, and more. The World Security Institute’s Center for Defense Information (CDI) provides expert analysis on U.S. national security, and defense policy, the Pentagon’s budget and its weapon systems.

  • The Jericho River, Carthage , 2012, 098545170X, 9780985451707
    The Jericho River, Carthage , 2012, 098545170X, 9780985451707. Jason explores a world of centaurs and angels, pharaohs and philosophers, priestesses and slaves. His tale reveals the history of Western Civilization and its roots in the ancient Middle East. The Jericho River flows through a magical world shaped by myth and history. Young Jason Gallo sails the river on a dangerous quest to rescue his father. He battles minotaurs and pirates, flees barbarians, stumbles into mummies' tombs, and outwits fairies, philosophers, and scientists. Along the way, he discovers friendship, love, and betrayal - and faces a hidden foe who threatens all he holds dear. The Jericho River flows like a timeline, carrying its hero through historic lands: Sumer, Babylonia, ancient Greece, Medieval Europe, Napoleon's empire, and many others, all in chronological order - tracing the history of Western Civilization, from its Middle Eastern origins to the modern era. Professor Gallo, Jason's father, is a historian, and his notes outline the journey, revealing the truth about Cleopatra, King Arthur, and the fall of the Roman Empire. He explains how Snow White began as a promiscuous goddess and why Eve was created from Adam's rib, as well as the origins of coffee, the cat, chivalry, the Internet, Atlantis - and much more.

    30.08 – 01.09.2019 LABIENNALE.ORG VENICEPRODUCTIONBRIDGE.ORG BOOK ADAPTATION RIGHTS MARKET 76. Mostra Internazionale d’Arte Cinematografica La Biennale di Venezia La Biennale di Venezia Director General and its collaborators for Andrea Del Mercato Book Adaptation Rights Market Erika Giorgianni Artistic Director Laura Kirlum of the Cinema Department Eugenia Leonardi Alberto Barbera Mariachiara Manci Chiara Marin Venice Production Bridge Alessandro Mezzalira Pascal Diot Nikolas Montaldi Savina Neirotti [email protected] The 4th edition of the Book Adaptation Rights Market, which will take labiennale.org place within the context of the 76th Venice International Film Festival, veniceproductionbridge.org confirms the increasing success of this initiative dedicated to publishers, as well as to producers. The Venice Production Bridge team is proud to announce that, in 2019, we are welcoming more international publishers than last year and who will be pitching their new titles as well as to present their complete catalogues, as opposed to other events dedicated to publishing within the context of Film Festivals that focus on a single book or volume. Producers will be offered a worldwide tour of 25 publishing companies coming from France, Germany, Greece, Japan, Italy, Spain, Sweden, The Netherlands, the UK and the USA. The uniqueness of this 3-day event consists not only in the organization of 1-to-1 meetings between the publishers and the producers, but also in enabling them to develop their network in a productive and welcoming setting. With the Book Adaptation Rights Market, the Venice Production Bridge renews its vocation to foster the development and production of international and European projects across a wide range of audiovisual forms.
