...The Phenomenon of “ Father Absence” Reflections on Zweig’s Letter from an Unknown Woman. Abstract The father-absence is a widespread phenomenon in the society nowadays. However, it is recently that people notice the psychological importance of father as a significant influence on female character development. Empirical research has demonstrated various negative outcomes for females in single-parent homes such as being overshy, self-abandoned as well as indifferent to the sorrounding, all of which influence their life-choice. This paper deals with this problem mainly from how psychologically father-absence affects the development of the female character which strongly decides their fate based on Stephan Zweig’s novel: Letter from an Unknown Woman. Key words: father-absence， the Name-of-the-Father 1. Introduction Letter from an Unknown Woman is one of the most famous novels composed by Austrian writer Stephan Zweig. Its cyclically-told tale of romantic yearning and pining for love is embodied in the doomed, delusional relationship of the two romantic leads: a young neighbor girl's steadfast, sacrificial love for a self-absorbed, dilettante writer. Zweig uses the form of the woman’s monologue as a letter to show us a tragic story of her whole life: how she falls in love with her neighbor, keeps faith for him through her whole life while the man has never recognized or remembered her. Many critics believe that the root-cause of this love-tragedy lies in...

Zero CSA Innovation을 통한 중소기업 경쟁력 강화의 필요성 1) CSA Innovation 가설 설정 배경 대한민국 기업들은 90년대 후반 IMF Crisis를 극복하는 과정에서 다양한 혁신활동을 전개해왔다. 중장기 전략 수립부터 각 Value Chain 상에서의 효율화를 통한 생산성 향상 및 Cost 절감, 이를 전사적으로 관리할 수 있는 IT System 구축 (ERP), 그리고 이를 꾸준히 유지 관리할 수 있는 인적자원에 대한 전략적인 육성에 이르기까지 전 방위적으로 행해져 왔으며, 주로 외부의 전문기관 (Consulting Firm, 학술기관, 정부기관, 관련 협회)를 통해서 전문성과 실행력을 지원받아왔다. 이러한 혁신 활동은 대기업 중심으로 시작되어 2000년대 초반부터 중소 기업으로 확대되어 전파되었다. ※ 출처:중소기업 중앙회 [pic]하지만, 에서 보는 바와 같이 중소기업들의 혁신활동은 생산, 품질, 물류, 세무 등 세부 기능부문에 대한 최적화 활동을 주로 전개해왔음을 알 수 있다. 이는 단기적인 성과 및 종속적인 대기업과의 관계에 의해서 Cost Reduction에 대한 압박을 받는 부문 즉, 제조원가에 초점을 맞추어서 혁신활동을 전개해왔음을 시사하고 있다. 혁신활동을 추진함에 있어 기업 전략에 기반한 원가 혁신 활동 추진의 중요성을 느낀 대기업은 많은 예산과 인력을 전략 수립에 투입하고 있으나 중소기업은 아직 그 단계에 까지 이르지 못한 것이 현실이며, 이는 에서 나타나는 바와 같이 중소기업 부도는 기업의 지속적 성장을 위한 중장기 전략의 부재에 따른 원인이라 볼 수 있을 것이다. ※ 출처:중소기업청 [pic] 중소기업 혁신 활동을 지원함에 있어 중장기 경영 전략의 존재 여부가 효율적 자원 활용을 통한 부문 최적화 및 지속적 성장을 위한 Main Factor로 인식하게 되었으며, 이를 계기로 중소기업형 Zero CSA Innovation 가설을...

...How does the equilibrium rule relate to Newton's first law of motion? Newtons first law states an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside for and an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Either way the object will not have an acceleration and since F=ma, and a=0 there must not be any forces acting on that object either with means the forces are in equilibrium. If an ice skater is moving forward at constant speed, the gravity force and normal force will equal each other in the y direction, and since the skater is moving at constant velocity there is no force in any other direction. On a smooth floor, why will girls wearing gym shoes win in a tug-of-ware with boys wearing socks? When the girls are wearing shoes, there will be greater friction between them and the floor. When the boys are wearing socks, there will be less tension between them and the floor making things smoother and causing them to fall. This describes Newton's third law of motion. If you stand on a pair of bathroom scales, explain how the readings change as you shift your weight gradually from side to side. What rule governs the readings on the scales? The equilibrium rule guides the scale readings. That is, the total of the readings adds to equal your weight. Then the net force on you is zero at all times. The scales push up as much as gravity pulls you down. Many people are confused about velocity and acceleration, thinking the...

...Firstly, the Universal Healthcare System takes the resposibility to offer assistance to all of the public in the absense of economic privation. This aspect of Universal Healthcare is not incorporated with private health care as it enables everyone to afford coverage and gradually diminish poverty rates in a society. It also narrows down the death rate of a country and the uncertainty of death. Majority of Universal Healthcare Systems are funded by the government through income taxes or payrolls, some being free. Due to the absurd costs of private health, countless people hesistate to give up their money to a substandard system as some may not be able to afford it. This can lead to diverse predicaments which can negtively influence a society. In a private healthcare system, Some may choose to not see a doctor, the severity of their condition will rise and...

...that the Toefl test is the most wonerful test. Although, I believe that some minuses of the test cannot be denied , but Im sure that the test is an acceptable way to discover our ability to read, write ,speak and then to develop our abilites in academic English. When I started practising for the test, it change a lot of things in my way of learning.For example, there are some types for speaking and writing , which I had always ignored. When I started to speak and write in a more particular way, and it helped me to improve my fundamental knowledge. First of all Toefl helps people to be more organised.For example, I have a friend who hated studying. He always got falls in test . The biggest problem , which disturbed him to study is the absense of being organised. He always mixed in his minds , and it became a barrier for him to study well at school. When he started to study Toefl he became more organised nd more concentrated,because Toefl needs a lot of concentration,hardworking and ability to be organised.Toefl has changed his whole life and now he studies at Cambridge university with very high grades. In addition to my first reason I also can say that Toefl is very important for future. Knowledge,which you get at time of studying Toefl, you can use in all kinds of situations of life. For example, my uncle who studied Toefl nearly twenty years ago, now uses his ken in his work. He works by a website and Toefl helps him freely communicate with customers. My last reason...

...It can cause strange sensations, emotions, and behaviors. Anything that can disturb the normal pattern of neuron activity can lead to a seizure. Such as, illness,brain damage, abnormal brain development, stroke,brain tumor, and drug and alcohol misuse. The cause of most cases are unknown. Having one seizure due to a elevating fever, called febrile seizures, or a simple head injury does not mean that person has epilepsy. Usually two or more will determine if that person has epilepsy, but not in all cases. A confirmation of epilepsy is done by a test that measures the electrical activity in the brain and brain scans called electroencephalogram or EEG. There are six main types of generalized seizures: tonic-clonic,tonic,clonic,myoclonic,absense, and atonic. They all will involve loss of consciousness and typically will happen without warning. Tonic-clonic seizures present with a contraction of the limbs lasting about 10-30 seconds called a tonic phase. Followed by a shaking of the limbs in unison. This is called the clonic phase. A person will often turn blue as breathing has stopped. Once the clonic phase has stopped it usually takes about 3-15 minutes for the person to return to normal but can last for hours. This period is called the postictal state or phase. Common symptoms of this phase may include feeling tired, headache, difficulty speaking,and abnormal behavior. Psychosis after a seizure is very common. The person will not remember what happened during this time. There...

...Baron Muth 6/23/2016 PHIL3232-476 Take Home Test #1 Question 2 When a person becomes sick and they most likely cannot take care of themselves, they tend to seek out help. It is with this help , people come in the hopes of getting better and fighting off whichever ailments they are bothered by. The main person responsible for curing the patients, or rather help ease their ailments are the doctor. The doctor is responsible for making sure the person they are treating recieves the best care possible. In order to treat the patient, a relationship between the doctor and patient must be established. Each side of this relationship has a responsibility. The patient is repsonsible for trusting the doctors instinics and following their discretion to get well. In this relationship, doctor maintians their oath, expertise and professional responisiblites in seeing the patient overcomes whatever issue they are dealing with. An issue that can arise in a patient-doctor relationship is when the patient decides to refuse treatment. When a patient is not on board with the doctors regimen, it becomes difficukt to continue treating them. This confilct comes down to the classic debate between the physciains "oaths, expertise and professional responsibilites and the patients right to make decisins. If a person is not comfortable with the way their doctor is handling their case, or feels as if the doctor is wrong with the way they have been treated so far, the patient will and can refuse...

...development, the design of a strategic business plan is an indispensable step towards a successful and viable business. Strategic planning involves setting up a sound and multifaceted plan or strategy to follow over a defined time period.It can involve all aspects of the business, or just a small part of it i.e. a selected department such as the marketing department.However, this does not mean that strategic business planning is only for large scale businesses since it can also benefit the small business, especially at start up, when the business sets its first goals and establishes itself in the business landscape. Writing up a business plan is an important step of a starting business, since most lending bodies will not authorize loans in absense of a detailed business plan.Why is it important? Imagine sailing off for a voyage in the sea and not planning for resources or supplies that you might need. Developing a business plan is the only way to determine the allocation needs, personnel, utilities, marketing goals, outreach and all valuable aspects that make your business useful and unique in the sea of business. However, strategic planning is a process employed in any time period in a formal business administration, since it usually comprises of a long range planning process of a specific or broader managerial aspect, that will in a time-frame manner set the outline of the business' goals and image and ultimately form its policy. To be successful, a strategic business plan, either...

...The Amtrak train arrived on schedule at 6 a.m. or so, as I'm sitting in the Boston train station still attaching - as it turned out unnecessary - locks to my luggage. Hustling to the train dragging two large suitcases was a feat. One kept twisting and turning, refusing to stay on its wheels. As if it didn't want me to leave. I hugged my daughter and blew kisses to the baby. Suddenly, I'm welling up with tears. I'd told the entire family that I was traveling for the next two months at least. The adventures I'd imagined and the time by myself didn't factor in the reality that I'd miss them terribly. Would the baby forget me in two months? How would they get along without me? Would my absense leave a hole during events? My daughter texts me a few minutes later asking me not to leave. Too late as the train rolls out of South Station. We're both crying and texting as the wheels put more distance between us. It's my first time away from home, and the first time she'll be without me. The older daughter seems fine with my departure. She understands it's an adventure, and professes a bit of...

...The effect of child-caregiver interacton on the social-, emotional and cognitive development of children “Lack of caregiver-child interaction has been cited as a risk factor that contributes to loss of developmental potential. On the other hand, positive caregiver-child interactions are said to facilitate social-emotional development (Walker et al., 2011). This is especially true in infancy.” “Lack of caregiver-child interaction has been cited as a risk factor that contributes to loss of developmental potential. On the other hand, positive caregiver-child interactions are said to facilitate social-emotional development (Walker et al., 2011). This is especially true in infancy.” In this essay I wish to discuss the above emphasised statements in the context of normal social behaviour. This essay places specific emphases on three main areas; the role of attachment in child developement, how a lack of caregiver-child interactions affect the infant and the protective factors that could facilitate the child’s social-emotional development. After World War II, it was found that many children who lost their parents presented similar psychological difficulties (Cassidy & Shaver, 1999). Psychiatrist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby wrote a pamphlet on the situation, entitled “Meternal Deprivation”. Out of this work spawned the attachment theory. For the first time people became aware that the close careciver-child attachment, usually mother-child, was very important in the...

...How did decolonization effect African economics? In today’s modern world it is certainly a global economy. Although the United States is still at the forefront in the economic world along with Europe, the days of their dominance is slowly dwindling. Regions such as China, South America particularly Brazil, India and others are growing at rates never before seen in these nations due to a multitude of different economic factors. However, in this new world economy, Africa seems to be left out. A place with an abundance of natural resources and agricultural capabilities, Africa has yet to reach its full potential. There are many theories to which one could attribute the lack of growth in Africa to but I will be specifically looking at decolonization and how, in my opinion, it has disallowed Africa to become a major player in the world economy. to understand why africaneconomies are still not growing like comparable emerging markets one must first start with the history and the worker for he/she is the driving force behind any economic system. in “dialects of decolonization” Cooper gives a detailed history of the French african worker during decolonization and reform movements. focusing on the social aspect of the labour movement, french west africa transitioned from a “class-centered, internationalist organization that insisted that workers subordiante their own concerns, interests and collective awarness to the emerging national struggle”. though this sounds honarbale, the...
