This thesis analyses the intertextual relation between Birgitta Trotzig?s I Kejsarens tid and the works of the Polish author Bruno Schulz, using a hermeneutical method. The application of Manfred Pfister?s model for qualification of intertextual intensity initially motivates that the most important intertextual relations should be sought in the realm of ?refer to? rather than ?use?. According to the hermeneutical approach, the conclusion demands an exposition of Birgitta Trotzig?s interpretative practices in relation to intertexts.

De senaste tre åren har ca 34000 personer i Sverige varit sjukskrivna för någon typ av stressreaktion, under det sammanfattande diagnosnumret F.34, anpassningsstörningar och svår stress, som i verkligheten kan rymma allt från lättare till mycket svåra tillstånd.Ett av de formulär som används vid arbetslivsrehabilitering är Maastricht Vital Exhaustion Index. Det används både vid kartläggning och vid värdering av insats. Det består av 23 frågor rörande förekomst av symtom och besvaras enligt 3-gradiga svarsalternativ (Ja=2, Vet ej=1, Nej=0). I en redan identifierad sjuk grupp har det visat sig att höga poäng (=hög stressnivå) på denna skala gav ökad risk för såväl hjärtinfarkt, depression samt stroke.SyfteAtt kartlägga en personalgrupp enligt Maastricht Vital Exhaustion Index hos personal vid ett bank/finansbolag med kontor i Stockholms innerstad. Metod och undersökt gruppStudien som var en enkätstudie gällde anställda som var i tjänst vecka 7 och 8 2008.Enkäten utdelades till 46 personer.

This study was an assignment for the company Holmen which is located in the region of Örnsköldsvik, Sweden. The study was focusing on the responsibilities of a forestry planner during the planning season. The study was investigating about how much time the planner spent in the office, in the car and out in the forest. Any other issues that would cause delays were also identified. To be more effective and to increase the number of objects to a district bank, a better preparation in the planning stage (for thinning?s or clear cuts) is needed as well as faster transition on to the next area.

Many archaeologists have been intrigued by how often symbolic houses of varying forms are used on the burialgrounds of the Scandinavian Bronze Age. Some scholars even claim that to deal with the dead did not mean to set them apart from the world of the living during this period. Since several examples show that there seem to be an active connection between the ship-setting and different types of symbolic houses, this study seek to demonstrate and interpret how the ideology behind these symbols vary between three regionally different Swedish areas: Halland, Småland and Gotland. The purpose is to show that the way chosen to shape the symbols materially not only had fundamental impact on the organization of the burialground itself, but also on how the surrounding world came to comprenhend and use them. This study suggests that even though the special shapes of the graves and the gravefield itself can carry meaning, the materialization of the monuments can be interpreted as incorporated in a practice of remembrance in where the individual shaping of the grave most probably formed part of a greater story..

Abstract Title: Veckorevyn.com. A study from power relations in the world of blogs Author: Klara Sigfridsson Department for Media and Cultural Studies, Malmö Högskola Tutor: Kristoffer Gansing This is a report that aims to research upon Fairclough´s Critical discourse analysis to emphasise the power relationship between professional bloggers and former amateur bloggers at the fashion-entertainment web page Veckorevyn.com. Professional bloggers as they appear in the research object and their power within the Media seem to be a subject that is very relevant these days. This paper will look at different factors that make professional bloggers popular and as an example on their responsibility as a role model. However, amateur bloggers do have an importance in this discussion as they are more and more competing with the professionals.

Banker liksom andra verksamheter möter dagligen risker och det är extra viktigt att förebygga och hantera dessa i en bank då deras viktigaste handelsvara är pengar. Bankerna möter många risker och de mest förekommande är likviditetsrisk, kreditrisk, valutarisk och ränterisk. Hand i hand med dessa risker och övriga går riskhantering, vilken varierar från risk till risk. I och med den pågående finanskrisen är riskhantering i den finansiella verksamheten ett mycket aktuellt ämne som inte bara har påverkat de svenska storbankerna utan hela världen. Syftet med vår forskning är att kartlägga tre av de fyra svenska storbankernas risker och riskhantering samt att söka förståelse för vilka risker som förekommer och hur de hanteras.

Volvo Hauler & Loader Division in Arvika produces wheel loaders which they deliverthroughout the world. The factory which is situated in Arvika is the largest wheel loader plant in the whole world, with its 1 100 employees. The different models stretch from L60E all theway up to the brand new L350F, with a loader capacity from six tons up to a staggering 35.The assembly of the different models are divided into three different assembly lines, Small(L60-L90), Medium (L110-L120) and Large (L150-L220). The assembly of Heavy (L350)has just been started with an upcoming pre series.This examination paper gives recommendations of improvements and necessary modifications to rationalize the pre-assembly of boom units. Three different scenarios are presented in the paper.

Background and research problem: The former highly inflationary property market is currently undergoing a stagnation process. Investors have been used to annual growth figures in double digits,but now this is no longer considered to be a realistic outlook for future years. According to a report from PriceWaterhouseCoopers and Urban Land Institute, published by Avanza Wealth Management,the three most attractive markets for property investment in Europe are London, Paris and Stockholm. Because of this the authors have focused their investigation on two companies in the London andStockholm. The authors will additionally use an international bank, an estate agent and a consultancy firm for further information, with regards to the property market and risks associated with these typesof investment in particular.

The aim of this thesis is to discuss and analyse the American cotton subsidies? effect on the world market in general and developing countries in particular.

This master thesis examines commercial video games and their relation to the concept of immersion and realism. Games as a communicative medium is quite a new area of interest within rhetorical research in Sweden. Most of the research conducted has, however, been focused on gaming and formation on opinion ? games that explicitly tries to persuade the player, unlike commercial games that focus on entertainment, that is. But that does not mean that commercial games cannot influence us.

The purpose with this study is to map the research front and the research base in information science, by using the bibliometric methods bibliographic coupling and author-co citation analysis. The research questions are: 1. What is the nature of the research front in information science, regarding which areas that are being studied? 2. What is the nature of the research base in information science, regarding which authors who are most cited, and how they can be grouped? The data used in the study were gathered from articles published in the journal Journal of the American society for information science and technology, published between 2004-2006, respectively 1986-2006.

Uppsatsen berör kommunikationen mellan de inblandade parterna vid en ombildning från hyresfastighet till bostadsrättsförening.

Undersökningen bygger på en kvalitativ metod där vi har gjort djupintervjuer med bank, tidigare hyresgäster som har varit delaktiga i en ombildning samt fastighetskonsulter. Uppsatsen har som problemformulering: Hur skall kommunikationsprocessen genomföras under ombildningens gång för att generera så goda förutsättningar som möjligt mot en god utgång med långsiktig och god ekonomi åt bostadsrättsföreningen och dess medlemmar?.

Tjänstesektorn utgör idag över 70 % av BNP i Sverige (The World Bank group.org, 2005), vilket innebär att tjänster är en viktig del i Sveriges ekonomi. Dock är misslyckandegraden hög när nya tjänster skall introduceras. En tänkbar orsak till detta är att företagen inte lyckas hitta de latenta behoven deras kunder har. Det finns tankar inom forskarvärlden att dessa skulle kunna hittas genom att involvera kunden i tjänsteutvecklingsprocessen (se till exempel Sandén 2007). I dagsläget är forskningen inom kundinvolvering vid tjänsteutveckling dock begränsad.Denna uppsats kommer att behandla kundinvolvering i tjänsteutvecklingen.
