  • Christian Rock Eine Betrachtung Unter Kulturästhetischen Und
    JOHANN WOLFGANG GOETHE UNIVERSITÄT FRANKFURT AM MAIN Fachbereich Sprach- und Kulturwissenschaften Die Arbeit wird im Rahmen des Studiengangs Musikwissenschaft vorgelegt zur Erlangung des Magister Artium. Christian Rock Eine Betrachtung unter kulturästhetischen und musikalischen Aspekten vorgelegt von: Tobias Rux aus: Zwickau (Geburtsort) 1. Gutachter/in: Prof. Dr. Linda Maria Koldau 2. Gutachter/in: PD Dr. Andreas Meyer Abgabedatum: 30.01.2009 Christian Rock – Eine Betrachtung unter kulturästhetischen und musikalischen Aspekten Vorwort Seite 2/139 Vorwort Ich bin seit meiner Jugendzeit Hörer von Rockmusik. Über Tonträger oder auf Konzerten kam ich mit vielen Spielarten des Rock in Berührung. Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, wie unterschiedlich sich Performance, Text und Kontext auf meine Wahrnehmung auswirkten. Es schien mir, als ob dabei die innere Einstellung des Protagonisten einen großen Einfluss auf die Rezeption von Musik hat – was sich im Rock noch augenscheinlicher niederschlug als in anderen Ausdrucksformen populärer Musik. Einerseits vom persönlichen Ausdruck des Interpreten bzw. der Aussage und Ausstrahlung seiner Musik angetan, riefen andere Darbietungen in diesen Punkten Enttäuschung in mir hervor. Mit dem Studium der Musikwissenschaft, besonders des Seminars Musikwissenschaft und Popularmusik, entstand ein persönliches Interesse, herauszufinden, ob und inwieweit bestimmte Strömungen des Rock sich hinsichtlich musikalischer, ideologischer und soziologischer Kriterien unterscheiden und welchen Wert bzw. Unwert sie für die Gesellschaft besitzen. Auch die Kritik an der vielleicht authentischsten Ausdrucksform der (jugendlichen) Gesellschaft veranlasste mich, jene Aspekte, hier auf Christian Rock bezogen, auf wissenschaftlicher Ebene zu beleuchten. Mein Dank gilt in erster Linie meiner Professorin Linda Maria Koldau, die mir in inhaltlichen sowie formalen Fragen für die Zeit meines Schreibens zur Verfügung stand.

  • Nominalization in Puaar
    Nominalization in Pulaar By Copyright 2017 Ibrahima Ba Submitted to the graduate degree program in Linguistics and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr Andrew McKenzie ________________________________ Dr Alison Gabriele ________________________________ Dr Isaac Gould ________________________________ Dr Utako Minai ________________________________ Dr Peter Ojiambo ________________________________ Dr Harold Torrence Date Defended: 27 January 2017 The Dissertation Committee for Ibrahima Ba certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Nominalization in Pulaar ________________________________ Chairperson Dr Andrew McKenzie Date approved: 27 January 2017 ii Abstract There are a few strategies to construct nominal structures and phrases. The Pulaar infinitive, for instance is used genitive nominalization and other non-finite clauses with nominal properties. Relative clause (RC) nominalization (headed relative clause and factive clauses) is also another nominalization process in the language. This dissertation lays out a description of these nominalization processes with a main focus on constructions involving the infinitive and relative clause nominalizations. The infinitive in Pulaar can have both nominal and verbal properties and this is usually indicated by an agreeing determiner but also through adjectival or adverbial modification. RC nominalization is a very prominent and productive in the language. The verb within the relative clause can occur with functional morphemes such as tense, aspect and negation. In addition, a relativized verb can have derivational morphemes like valency-changing affixes attached to it. The factive RC nominals can have an event, factive and manner interpretation whereas the GN nominal can have a generic, event and factive interpretation.

  • Re-Thinking South Korean Postcolonial Multiculturalism in the Fine Art Textbook for Fifth- and Sixth- Graders
    Re-thinking South Korean Postcolonial Multiculturalism in the Fine Art Textbook for Fifth- and Sixth- Graders Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Young Lim Nam, M.A. Graduate Program in Art Education The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Professor Christine Ballengee-Morris Advisor Professor Deborah L. Smith-Shank Professor Shari Savage Professor Vesta Daniel Copyright by Young Lim Nam 2014 i Abstract This study is a critical analysis of the context of image examples for the multicultural art education portion in a Fine Art textbook, which is currently used in South Korea for 5th and 6th graders. The purpose of this research is to evaluate how multiculturalism is represented in the text. To this end, this research focuses on ethnicity construction: how politico-economic contexts and cultural representation of ethnic arts have influenced the content of the textbook. Postcolonial multiculturalism is designated as a theoretical framework and a critical discourse analysis (CDA) as a methodological framework for this research. Through CDA, I understand invisible beliefs and cultural identities that people share by paying attention to power, ideology, and intertextuality that are infiltrated in language. The findings revealed that inside/outside the Fine Art textbook promotes the pedagogy of South Korean ethnicity construction through postcolonial multiculturalism, which disrupts the idea of multiculturalism. The government is involved in narrating South Korean ethnicity and its visual art forms in a traditional artistic format. This seems to be a response to the political context where this competitive particular culture is desired and promoted to engage and respond to both opportunity and crisis in the global economy.

  • Without a Doubt, Stryper Is One of the Top Christian Rock Bands of All-Time, and Certainly the Most Celebrated Christian Metal Band of All Time
    Without a doubt, Stryper is one of the top Christian rock bands of all-time, and certainly the most celebrated Christian metal band of all time. Comprised of Michael Sweet (vocals/guitar), Oz Fox (guitar), Tim Gaines (bass), and Robert Sweet (drums), Stryper has been rocking since 1983, and is responsible for such '80s metal classic albums as 'Soldiers Under Command,' 'To Hell with the Devil,' In God We Trust,' and such MTV hit singles/videos as "Calling on You," "Free," and "Honestly." After a sabbatical for much of the 1990's, Stryper returned strong in the early 21st century. But it was not until their 2011 covers set, 'The Covering,' that the aforementioned definitive Stryper was reinstated, as the band welcomed Gaines back into the fold. "Tim is an original member, so there's a certain magic and chemistry that you have with the original line-up, that you can't replace with someone else," explains Michael Sweet. "It's just there, it is what it is. And Tim brings that to the band. He's a very talented bass player, singer, and keyboard player. He brings a certain chemistry and energy to the band, and it takes the four of us to recreate that." Running the gamut from 1970's era classic rock (Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song," Deep Purple's "Highway Star," Kiss' "Shout It Out Loud," etc.) to 1980's era heavy metal (Black Sabbath's "Heaven and Hell," the Scorpions' "Blackout," "Iron Maiden's "The Trooper," etc.), 'The Covering' is certain to be a most welcomed addition to Stryper fan's album collections.
