WALLS THAT CAN TALK... DREAM, UTOPIA OR FANTASY? TWO ROADS DIVERGED IN A WOOD, AND I, I TOOK THE LESS TRAVELED BY, THAT HAS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE... ROBERT FROST CITY MUSEUM FOR ISTANBUL by ELIF ERTEKIN A THESIS PROJECT SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE VIRGINIA POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE AND STATE UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE APPROVED BY: PAUL EMMONS JAAN HOLT MARCO FRASCARI Commitee Member Chairman Commitee Member BRIAN KANE SUSAN PIEDMONT-PALLADINO Commitee Member Commitee Member JUNE 04, 2004 WAAC ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA i COPYRIGHT 2005, ELIF ERTEKIN ABSTRACT Victor Hugo Victor MY THESIS; “ CITY MUSEUM FOR ISTANBUL” TELLS THE STORY OF ISTANBUL . THE PROJECT; FROM ITS PLANS TO ITS ELEVATIONS AND SECTIONS IS DESIGNED BY A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE CITY AND ITS LONG HISTORY. EVERY DETAIL THAT HAS BEEN INSERTED IN THE BUILDING HAS BEEN USED IN ISTANBUL, IS A PROOF OF SOMETHING THAT BELONGS TO THE CITY AND monument in this and its page ght has its THE TASTE OF ITS PEOPLE. THE MOST STRIKING CHARACTERISTIC OF THE MUSEUM IS; ITS GIANT AND POWERFUL WALLS. THE IDEA OF USING WALLS CAME FROM THE FACT THAT ISTANBUL WAS FOUNDED AS A WALLED CITY. FOLLOWING THE HISTORY OF ISTANBUL, I PICKED UP THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF THE CITY AND WITH RESPECT TO THEIR ORIGINAL FUNCTIONS, I USED THEM IN MY DESIGN. THE CITY WALLS WERE JUST THE BEGINNING; THEY HELPED ME TO DIVIDE MY SITE INTO DIFFERENT PARTS, DEFINING SPACES AND HANDLING EVERY FUNCTION IN THE MUSEUM. -
Post-Cold War Experimental Theatre of China: Staging Globalisation and Its Resistance
Post-Cold War Experimental Theatre of China: Staging Globalisation and Its Resistance Zheyu Wei A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The School of Creative Arts The University of Dublin, Trinity College 2017 Declaration I declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at this or any other university and it is my own work. I agree to deposit this thesis in the University’s open access institutional repository or allow the library to do so on my behalf, subject to Irish Copyright Legislation and Trinity College Library Conditions of use and acknowledgement. ___________________ Zheyu Wei ii Summary This thesis is a study of Chinese experimental theatre from the year 1990 to the year 2014, to examine the involvement of Chinese theatre in the process of globalisation – the increasingly intensified relationship between places that are far away from one another but that are connected by the movement of flows on a global scale and the consciousness of the world as a whole. The central argument of this thesis is that Chinese post-Cold War experimental theatre has been greatly influenced by the trend of globalisation. This dissertation discusses the work of a number of representative figures in the “Little Theatre Movement” in mainland China since the 1980s, e.g. Lin Zhaohua, Meng Jinghui, Zhang Xian, etc., whose theatrical experiments have had a strong impact on the development of contemporary Chinese theatre, and inspired a younger generation of theatre practitioners. Through both close reading of literary and visual texts, and the inspection of secondary texts such as interviews and commentaries, an overview of performances mirroring the age-old Chinese culture’s struggle under the unprecedented modernising and globalising pressure in the post-Cold War period will be provided. -
Nora's Performance in China
Nora’s Performance in China (1914-2010): Inspiration, Communities and Political Theatre By Xiaofei Chen Master thesis Center for Ibsen Studies UNIVERSITETET I OSLO Spring semester, 2010 Acknowledgements I came to Oslo University by serendipity. When I was searching the resources for my thesis Nora’s rewriting in China(1914-1948), by accident the website of Ibsen Center jumped out. Then I came to Norway and studied at Ibsen Center. Whether in Norway or in China, many people asked me why I had chosen Ibsen studies and had come to Norway. I always said because I liked Ibsen’s plays and Norway has an Ibsen Center. It turned out that I had chosen correctly. At the Ibsen Center, professors and students from all over the world gave me lots of chances to access different ideas and insights into Ibsen studies, especially from theatre and performance aspects. I could access the original Ibsen’s texts and understand Norwegian society in Ibsen’s times, and I could watch Ibsen’s performances from different countries either in the National Theatre or through DVDs in class. Thanks to Ibsen Center for giving me the opportunity to study here, and I also want to show my appreciation for all the professors at the Ibsen Center: especially Frode Helland, Astrid Sæther, Jon Nygaard, Atle Kittang, Erika Fischer-Lichte and Nilu Kamaluddin, Julie Holledge, Knut Brynhildsvoll, who gave me the latest information about Ibsen studies through lectures and seminars. My special thanks for my professor, Jon Nygaard, who gave me the inspiration to write this topic with fresh insight. -

BUKET CENGİZ Leiden University, Institute for Area Studies S1108743 1 INTRODUCTION Background and Central Question I started working on the proposal for this dissertation in September 2010, at the beginning of the last quarter of a year that had been spent in celebrations of Istanbul 2010, European Capital of Culture. There were numerous events in the city – concerts, exhibitions, film screenings, panel discussions and so forth. From outside, everything looked fine; Istanbul 2010 seemed to mesh in a perfect way with the city’s acceleration on the list of the hip cities of the world. On the other hand, things were not that positive for those who were being pushed out of a rapidly gentrifying city centre. Neighbourhoods such as Sulukule were being removed from the memory of the city, rents and flat prices were getting higher and higher, while in numerous neighbourhoods, people were living in anxious expectation of urban transformation projects. This made me think about these people who were suffering the most because of the drastic changes, as Istanbul was competing in the race to become a global city: these people living in poor neighbourhoods in the city centre, or in ex-shanty-towns which were whetting the appetites of building contractors. -

FOREWORD Having assumed the universal mission of acting as the voice of all senior citizens regardless of their re- ligion, language, race or gender, Turyak Seniors Council Association is determined to hold an international congress annually, one which each year will bring up one of the important common problems on the world’s agenda. These congresses will be held in İstanbul and invite from all countries of the world senior citizens who are distinguished for their wisdom, to deliver papers on the congress topic, choosing them as authorities in that field. Pertinent international organizations will also be invited to these congresses, reports of which will be submitted to all political leaders in the world. Our first congress, on the subject of bridging the cultural gap, is being attended by thirty-nine highly distin- guished participants from thirty-four countries, and this plus the fact of His Excellency. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s keen interest and attendance as guest of honor suffice to provide us with great encourage- ment for the future. We would like to extend our thanks to him on behalf of our board of directors as well as all our senior citizens and participants. That such an extremely sensitive and vital topic as bridging the cultural gap has been taken up by such an eminent delgation of distinguished senior citizens in all their wisdom marks a groundbreaking event for the entire world, and as such is a source to us of excitement, pleasure and pride. With all our hearts we believe that the congress will make observations beneficial to humankind in general while offering proposals toward a solution. -

Here Has Been a Substantial Re-Engagement with Ibsen Due to Social Progress in China
2019 IFTR CONFERENCE SCHEDULE DAY 1 MONDAY JULY 8 WG 1 DAY 1 MONDAY July 8 9:00-10:30 WG1 SAMUEL BECKETT WORKING GROUP ROOM 204 Chair: Trish McTighe, University of Birmingham 9:00-10:00 General discussion 10:00-11:00 Yoshiko Takebe, Shujitsu University Translating Beckett in Japanese Urbanism and Landscape This paper aims to analyze how Beckett’s drama especially Happy Days is translated within the context of Japanese urbanism and landscape. According to Routledge Encyclopedia of Translation Studies, “shifts are seen as required, indispensable changes at specific semiotic levels, with regard to specific aspects of the source text” (Baker 270) and “changes at a certain semiotic level with respect to a certain aspect of the source text benefit the invariance at other levels and with respect to other aspects” (ibid.). This paper challenges to disclose the concept of urbanism and ruralism that lies in Beckett‘s original text through the lens of site-specific art demonstrated in contemporary Japan. Translating Samuel Beckett’s drama in a different environment and landscape hinges on the effectiveness of the relationship between the movable and the unmovable. The shift from Act I into Act II in Beckett’s Happy Days gives shape to the heroine’s urbanism and ruralism. In other words, Winnie, who is accustomed to being surrounded by urban materialism in Act I, is embedded up to her neck and overpowered by the rural area in Act II. This symbolical shift experienced by Winnie in the play is aesthetically translated both at an urban theatre and at a cave-like theatre in Japan. -
