The aim of this thesis is a comparative study of Djuna Barnes' 1928 book Ladies Almanack and turn of the century sexological texts focusing on Havelock Ellis' studies of 'sexual inversion in women'. The study is based on queer theory concepts from Judith Butler and Fanny Ambjörnson as well as Michel Foucault's studies of the history of sexuality. After a presentation of the theoretical concepts and a short introduction of earlier research on Barnes' works my reading and conclusions are presented in five chapters focusing on different theoretical and thematic aspects of the studied texts. A recapitulation and discussion ends the thesis.In short, my conclusions are that Ladies Almanack contrary to earlier research can be read as a queer text, and a form of counter-discourse to the general one regarding lesbianism in the early 1900's. The text also reveals itself as a pointed critique and a satire of Havelock Ellis' writings on 'sexual inversion in women'.

Syftet med det här arbetet är att få reda på hur barn, femåringar respektive sjuåringar, märker av genusperspektivet i reklam riktad till dem. Jag har använt mig av gruppintervjuer där jag tillsammans med barn undersökt hur barn reflekterar över genusperspektivet i reklamen riktad till barn. Frågeställningarna har undersökts genom fem olika reklamavsnitt som vänder sig till barn. Uppsatsens teoretiska perspektiv vilar på en grund från genusvetenskapen och socialiseringsprocessen. Resultatet av min analys där jag använt mig av gruppintervjuer, visar att barn ser genusperspektivet och enligt femåringarna så är det färgen som mest visar vem reklamen är riktad till.

Each time you pass a stand full of magazines it?s hard not to absorb the many exhortations that are being thrown at you. The range of different lifestyle magazines have more or less exploded during the last years. All magazines, each one trying to outmatch the other, want to help you improve to be the best you can.People get affected by their surroundings including what they see and what they read. Therefore we chose to do this study, as an opportunity to get a closer look on what the Swedish lifestyle magazines Cosmopolitan and Café tell us about women and men.

For youths leisure activity the organized sport is vital. Young people become increasingly sedentaryand the healths of young people are the various municipalities responsibility. In Eskilstuna, thehandball is very popular but there are only three grounds that meet the standards of the dimensions ofa handball pitch, 40x20 meters. The same dimensions are used by floorball. Eskilstuna municipalityowns one of these, the other two is privately built and owned and the municipality rents time in thehalls.IF Guif and HK Eskil are two handballclubs in the central part of Eskilstuna.

In this paper an upper level compulsory school is examined from a gender perspective. The purpose of the paper is to analyse how girls and boys acquire space in the classroom (during a Swedish lesson) and in the sports hall (during a lesson in physical education). To fullfil the purpose of this paper a seventh grade class was observed during a lesson in Swedish as well as in sports. In addition to this on pupil was interviewed. In this paper the results are compared to and measured against results from earlier research in the field. Used as a theoretical basis are Simone de Beauvoir?s theories on gender.The results attained indicate that girls and boys claims space in different ways during time in the classroom as well as in the sports hall.

This paper is a case study on Bradley E. Manning, famous for leaking classified intelligence to media, or in the charge sheet?s words: ?knowingly give intelligence to the enemy, through indirect means.? My opinion is that this sort of dilemma is a question of values, how you view the world and, most important of all, human rights and the philosophy of rights. Therefore I decided to sort out the arguments regarding the issue of freedom of speech versus the state?s need for protection.

Badminton är en inomhussport som människor i alla åldrar och på alla nivåer kan utöva. Ju högre nivå sporten utövas på ju mer krav ställs på belysningen. I många badmintonhallar används idag armaturer som bidrar till bländning och som inte ger en god synkomfort. Badminton är världens snabbaste racketsport vilket gör att kraven på belysningen är hög. Utan tillräckliga riktlinjer gällande belysningsanläggningens utformning som ska säkerställa en god belysning för spelarna kan det bli svårt för dessa att hinna uppfatta fjäderbollen, då spelet går väldigt snabbt och mycket rörelser sker på badmintonplanen.Syftet är att öka förståelsen för vilka faktorer som är viktiga att ta hänsyn till vid planering av ny belysning i badmintonhallar.Metoderna som användes i studien var observationer, ljusmätningar, intervjuer och enkätundersökningar.

When constructing an industrial- or hall building, the most common framework materials thatis used are wood, steel or concrete. Due to an assignment from Byggnadstekniska Byrån ABhas a document been created that makes it possible to investigate how the final costs is af-fected by gapes in between elements and which used foundation. And this with steel as thematerial. The purpose with this essay is to investigate which is the most well fitted materialwhen constructing an industrial- or hall building wood, steel or concrete. Information aboutthe different materials has been collected by litterateurs and by different internet pages.

I denna uppsats använder jag Johannes Anyurus diktsamling Städerna inuti Hall, i en sociologisk diskussion kring samtiden. Min teoretiska utgångspunkt ligger i Anthony Giddens texter kring det senmoderna samhället.  Med syftet att se hur Giddens och Anyurus resonemang kring samtidsindividen skiljer sig åt, samt att utreda om, och hur, sociologin kan lära av poesin, ställer jag frågan: Hur kan senmoderniteten , så som Giddens diskuterar den, spåras i Anyurus Städerna inuti Hall? För att besvara min fråga definierar jag först vad Giddens menar att senmoderniteten innebär, för att sedan visa på några specifika sätt som han menar att senmoderniteten påverkar individen. Därefter skapar jag ett verktyg för att söka senmoderniteten, så som Giddens beskriver den, i poesin.  Jag finner på en strukturell nivå att det finns stora likheter mellan de två, men på individnivå diskuterar Anyuru och Giddens skilda samhällen. Dess perspektiv och världssyn skiljer sig på flera punkter betänkligt.

Teching aid in form of schoolbooks plays an importent role. The teacher uses schoolbooks as a tool in its tutoring. I have examined how and whether the pictures in the schoolbooks are presenting people and ethnic minorities biased and stereotypical. The material I have examined consisted of a series of schoolbooks (So-direkt 1-3, samhällskunskap av Bonnier 2003).To find out if that is the case I have used a theory by Stuart Hall, his theory is about people and how they are represented in different types of media, like pictures and text. I studied it by using the method of image analysis where I investigated and interpreted the denotation and konnontation of the pictures.

Since product placement is a relatively new phenomenon in Swedish television, there is a lack of research on what attitudes Swedish TV-viewers hold towards it. This is where our paper will contribute to the research. The purpose of this reserachpaper is to describe and analyze what attitude Swedish TV-viewers has towards product placement. Kim Schröders multidimensional model of mass media reception were used, which is a developed model from Stuart Hall?s ?encoding/decoding? one-dimensional model.
