Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur det svenska utrikespolitiska ställningstagandet har förändrats över tid från andra världskriget till 2000-talet. Studien har formen av en diskursanalys och fokuserar med den svenska utrikespolitiska diskursen under 1941, 1972 och 2004. För att undersöka den diskursiva förändringen tar vi avstamp i Michel Foucault teori kring diskursernas maktförhållande.

En hermeneutisk undersökning av hur manlighet skildras i kvinnliga trubadurers minnelyrik från högmedeltida Occitanien. Uppsatsen diskuterar lyrikens kontext och trobairitzernas korpus, för att sedan analysera de 26 dikter som med störst sannolikhet verkligen är skrivna av trobairitzerna. Analysen fokuserar på vilka egenskaper männen i lyriken tillskrivs, hur männen figurerar i förhållande till ly

I denna uppsats kommer därför en granskning av den offentliga apparatens efterkontroller att göras. Uppsatsen utgörs av en fallstudie som granskar Lunds komm

The urbanization term is widely used in contexts, when discussing urban emergence. However, the term linked to processes multidimensional which requires a wide perspective on what forms the basis for changes in the landscape.

This thesis focuses on the medieval city walls of Bonn and Cologne in Germany. Both of these cities had elaborate city walls and are located in close proximity to each other, but the size of the cities differs widely. When the walls were built the towns needed them as defence but this was only the main reason for the existence of the walls for the next few hundred years. The walls did, however, re

Syftet med projektet är att undersöka vad användandet av EPS - cellplast som isolering i platta på mark kan ha för risker och konsekvenser ur byggnadsfysikaliska - och konstruktions aspekter i ett långtidsperspektiv. Arbetet har fokuserat på minskad isoleringsförmåga av fukt, och sättningsskador som beror på krypning av isoleringsmaterialet. Detta undersöks för att kunna uppskatta EPS - cellplaste

These nymphic girls and their lovers, when ap

Ruts bok får inte särskilt ofta uppmärksamhet och hamnar lätt i periferin. Trots detta har det kring berättelsen om moabitiskan Rut, som söker skydd hos israeliten Boas, skapats en variation av tolkningar. Dessa tolkningar kan dels vara att berättelsen talar om hur en främling ansluter sig till JHWH:s utvalda folk eller till kyrkan, dels kan berättelsen tala om kärleken mellan två kvinnor. Dessuto
