This article emerges from a wider study on bicultural film archiving practice. It focuses on Jonathan Dennis as a subject of (my) archiving, and as a distinctive archivist himself in relation to a specific archive at a particular moment. Dennis practice differed significantly from North American and European conventions contemporaneous with his life work. The charismatic founding director of Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision (formerly The New Zealand Film Archive) Jonathan Dennis (1953–2002) became a conduit for tensions and debates during the 1981–2002 period in relation to indigenous and non indigenous presentation of (film) archival materials. This resulted in a film archive and curatorship practice which differed significantly from that of the North American and European archives he originally sought to emulate. As a Pākehā (non Māori/indigenous New Zealander) with a strong sense of social justice he argued for an awareness of geographical location and cultural context in his work. He supported a philosophical shift in archival practice, by engaging indigenous peoples in developing creative and innovative exhibitions and programmes from the 1980s period until his death.
Note: From 1988 the official name for the New Zealand Film Archive was Ngā Kaitiaki o ngā Taonga Whitiāhua (Guardians of the Treasured Images of Light). Since August 2014 the institution is called Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision, New Zealand Archive of Film, Television and Sound Ngā Taonga Whitiāhua Me Ngā Taonga Kōrero to acknowledge the acquisition of the state-owned Television NZ Archive and Sound Archives from Radio NZ. For brevity’s sake the Archive is referred to throughout as NTSV (Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision).
Key: NTSV PP JD refers to the NTSV Personal Papers of Jonathan Dennis (uncatalogued at time of writing). 相似文献
AbstractThis article describes a method for using the United States Census data to open a differential equations course. The question of finding a model for the United States population data gives students a first experience with creating a model using differential equations, and also understanding derivatives, what they mean, and how to calculate them in the context of real data. This model-building start motivates further exploration in many of the standard differential equations topics: the method of separation of variables, slope fields, autonomous equations, equilibria, and stability. 相似文献
There are child soldiers fighting with government forces and opposition groups in more than 30 countries worldwide. Although
studies have been conducted on the impact of war-related trauma on children, very few have focused on those children who do
not exhibit trauma-related symptoms after experiencing armed combat. The purpose of this study was to identify and understand
some of the mechanisms and resources that resilient children draw upon to overcome the trauma of child soldiering. Six Colombian
child soldiers were recruited through purposive sampling techniques to participate in a narrative study focusing on their
lived experiences and their personal understanding of how they were able to overcome the effects of war trauma. Six narrative
themes were identified and discussed in terms of the literature on trauma and childhood resilience and also related to counselling
needs and services. 相似文献
Retention of female faculty is an important issue for institutions of higher education aiming for excellence and diversity. However, an essential first step in understanding retention is to examine what contributes to career satisfaction for academic women. This study is based on data from a census survey of faculty conducted in 1996 at a Research I university located in the Midwest. Using Hagadorn's (2000) model for conceptualizing faculty job satisfaction, the study identifies domains of environmental condition, departmental climate, and demographics that play a role in female faculty's overall career satisfaction. 相似文献
The aim of the present study was to further validate the Parental Stress Index (PSI; Abidin, 1990) which claims to measure distinct sources of stress related to the parent and the child. Two hundred and forty five mothers completed the French version of the PSI and other questionnaires including the DAS (Spanier, 1976), the CBCL (Achenbach & Edelbrock, 1981) and the BDI (Beck, et al., 1961). A subsample of 218 mothers and their preschoolers were also directly observed during a problem solving task in the laboratory. In general, regression analyses indicated that both parent and child scales contributed significantly and independently to the prediction of marital adjustment, depression, the child's problems as reported by the mother and behaviors observed in the laboratory. As expected, the parent's scale when entered first explained most of the variance for factors related to the mother, such as marital adjustment (29%) and depression (45%), and the child's scale obtained no significant results when entered last. Moreover, the child's scale contributed over and above the parent's scale in predicting the child's difficulties (12%) as reported by the mother, and accounted for all the variance when entered first (31%). Intriguingly, results showed that the child scale significantly predicted mother and child behavior in the laboratory situation, but the parent scale contributed to the explained variance only when entered first. In general, these results suggest that the two main factors of the PSI represent valid and relatively independent sources of information. Considering clinical and research applications, the PSI may be particularly useful in assessing combinations of stressors, which appear to be specifically harmful for the parent-child relationship. 相似文献
