An analysis in the work of Martin Kellermans comic ?Rocky? of the interaction between the male and female characters and of how each of their gender are portrayed. We are going to find out if it is probable for young adults to be affected by any eventual gender-stereotypes that we can find in ?Rocky? or if ?Rocky? consolidates a stereotypical image of men and women that young adults might have developed through different media. We conduct this analys by first reading through random seleceted ?Rocky? books and present some of the comic strips where men and women interact with each other or discuss the opposite sex..

The purpose of this bachelor?s thesis is to examine whether there was an elite on Gotland during Roman Iron Age or not. To explain this focus has been put on the roman goods. The contexts in which the roman artifacts are found indicate that they can be tied to what might have been an elite on Gotland during Roman Iron Age. They might also have been used as means of expressing wealth and prestige.

The purpose of this study was to see how Luke depicted the Roman Empire and in particularits people through his gospel. Around the time of the gospels? composition, 70-80 A.D., tensions were high between the Jewish people and their Roman occupants. However, it was during this period of high tension that a small group of Jews distinguished themselves not only by claiming that the promised savior, the Messiah, had arrived but also by including non-Jewish members into their ranks. The stated question is how this group of Christians reasoned both among themselves but also with their surroundings.

Our purpose was to investigate the schools and the social welfare´s experiences of Roman children´s school situation in a Scanian town. We have done a qualitative investigation, interviewing 14 persons from both school and social welfare. Through the interviews we wanted to find the factors which influences the Roman pupils schooling and which efforts the professionals has to their disposition to influence these children´s school situation in a positive direction.The main result of our study is that the majority of the Romans is an isolated group, both in the Swedish school system and in the society. The Romans got access to the Swedish comprehensive school first in 1965, which implies that the Romans have a young school tradition. Most of the Roman pupils have a high absent, which is grounded in a complex of problems.

The purpose of this paper is to make an analysis of the urban Roman water system. I have chosen to work with the system as a general field, not as a case study of a single town. In my opinion such a study would not give a proper and fair view of the subject. Therefore, this paper will discuss the different parts of the system, each one for itself and name examples wherever possible, to give a wide survey of the reality of the Roman water supply system. The aim is to give the reader a clear picture of different solutions used in the time of the early Roman Empire and a good understanding of the subject..

Uppsatsen studerar hur Oscar Wildes roman 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' har överförts till filmen, genom att jämföra centrala karaktärer, förhållandet mellan 'story' och 'plot' samt hur man skildrar tiden och rummet i de olika medierna. Detta för att se vilken form av adaptation som använts. Teorin baseras på Brian McFarlane, Susan Hayward och Louis Giannetti m.fl..

The purpose of this study is to understand how roman children and young people?s relations are to school and education from a family point of view.I have used a qualitative method and by means of that studied different information sources.  I have proceeded from two different theories: culture conception and categorizing. My first theory choice - Culture conception - represents a value of how we see the culture and the prospective of it.My second theory choice ? categorizing ? represents that we humans classify consciously or unconscious ourselves and others into categories, with the consequence that we understand the world by categorizing. Question I have proceeded from are: - Which roll does the family has for children and young persons from roman society? - Which expectations do children and young persons from roman society have from the family when it comes to education? Throughout my study I have come to the conclusion that roman culture looks differently upon boys and girls.

As long as envy and the will of harming others for what they possess have existed, the evileye has been a present belief system in many cultures around the world. This study, based onarchaeological evidence and texts by ancient writers that reflect this ancient superstition,explores how the evil eye was being averted and practiced by ancient cultures. What measureswere taken to ward off the evil eye? How have these measures been represented in thematerial culture? What can we learn from the context of the material culture involving the evileye? Discussions and theories of protective measures that have been depicted on the walls ofthe roman city of Pompeii will hopefully give a wider comprehension of the evil eye, and its influence on Roman society..

Uppsatsen är en biografisk och receptionshistorisk studie av en svensk nutida konstnär. Tidningarnas recensioner och artiklar, personliga samtal med Johan Thunberg och analys av Thunbergs målningar ger underlag till uppsatsen. Materialet har hämtats från bibliotekets mikrofilmsarkiv, tidningarnas internetarkiv och konstnärens hemsida på Internet med länkar till Konstnärslexikonet Amanda och Svenska konstnärer. Vid informationsinsamlandet av underlaget till uppsatsen har långsamt en ?bild? av Johan Thunbergs konstnärliga verksamhet vuxit fram som idag år 2011 kan ses som en mindre affärsrörelse. En intressant del i affärsrörelsen, förutom den konstnärliga kreativiteten att framställa originalmålningar, är marknadsföringen av enmansföretaget.

Som motiv har åldrandet inte fått alltför mycket plats i litteraturvetenskapliga studier. Denna uppsats granskar på vilket sätt åldrandet skildras i Bo Carpelans postuma roman Blad ur höstens arkiv (2011)..

This essay focuses on the technical systems and functions behind how a Roman bath operated. I will present a general view by going through each part of the waters path through the bath one by one. Since there is no such thing as a standardised Roman bath I will, under each headline, present the sub subject with a presentation of the workings and then exemplifying through archaeological findings and ancient literary sources.This essay is therefore meant to present a thorough and clear presentation of the technical aspects of a roman bath. The aim is to give the reader an understanding of how a bathhouse worked in general and why. To this I want to present problems that the Romans were faced with and how they solved them..

Syftet med min uppsats är undersöka Carl Johan De Geers konstnärsmyt utifrån De Geers egna perspektiv. Det har tidigare inte gjorts några studier kring De Geers myt utan främst har det funnits intresse kring hans förflutna. Mitt mål har varit att tillföra något nytt inom Carl Johan De Geers konstnärskap och ge en modern bild av vem han är. För att förstå De Geers framställning av sig själv krävdes svar på följande frågeställningar:Hur framställer De Geer sin resa från borgerlig slottsadel till kommunistisk multikonstnär?Hur skildrar De Geer sin barndom i sina verk?Hur förhåller han sig till sin familj och sin bakgrund?Hur går han till väga för att framhäva myten om sig själv?.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att ställa tre bildtolknikngssätt, det presskritiska, det essäistiska och det semiotiska enligt Peirce, vid sidan av varandra för att förtydliga och därmed också öka bildförståelsen. De sex porträtten, som presenteras kronologiskt, har följande titlar: Självporträtt, Wilhelm Claus, Målaren; Anders Österling, Carl Sam Åsberg och Jägaren.De huvudsakliga källorna för uppsatsen är, förutom recensioner i dagspressen, Ragnar Hoppes bok Johan Johansson och brevsamlingen "Johansson, Johan, Albin 1879-1951, konstnär, målare, handskriftsavdelningen LUB. Andra väsentliga källor är: Från Pilo till X-et av Ragnar Hoppe, Från Skovgaard till Martin Emond av Hakon Hedemann-Gade, Nutida skånskt måleri, band II och slutligen artikeln "Johan Johansson" i Svenskt konsnärslexikon författad av Greta Åkerlund. För den semiotiska tolkningen av har jag använt mig av Göran Sonessions bok Bildbetydelser. Inledning till bildsemiotiken som vetenskap, och Att tolka bilder, Jan-Gunnar Sjölin, red..
