The dissertation comprises of five studies in the history of philosophy with primarily a sociological and history of ideas orientation. All the studies fall within the same timeframe, 1860-1910. Furthermore, they all focus on philosophy in the Nordic countries, and university philosophy in particular. Three of the texts take up the development of the discipline at the universities in Lund and Cope
This paper is based on ethnographic field work in an evangelical/Messianic community in contemporary Jerusalem. In the paper I interpret the pro-Israeli strand of Evangelicalism’s fascination with Judaica and Jewish ritual in relation to the movement’s location in a temporal-spatial interspace. I argue that the Christian Zionist impulse to experiment with Jewish tradition needs to be understood as
The need for keeping manufacturing and workplacesin Europe calls for new ideas and concepts for productiverobots with focus on their usefulness for Small andMedium sized Enterprises (SMEs). The activitiesfrom the Robotics Research at LTH, [3], [4], [2], andin particular those related to the SMErobot project[1] comprise efforts in this direction. The SMErobotproject is a recently started four-year-
Solen har lyst konstant på vår värld i fyra och en halv miljard år. Strålarna som värmer vår hud idag har känts av varenda person som någonsin levt. Solens strålar har rört vid dinosaurier, och hälsat på de första varelser som lämnade havens vatten för ett liv på land.Solen har varit vittne till allting som skett här på Jorden. Men den är ingen passiv iakttagare. Solen är vår planets kraftverk, deThe Sun has shone on our world for four and a half billion years. The light that warms our skin today has been felt by every person who has ever lived.It is our nearest star and our planet’s powerhouse, the source of the energy that drives our winds, our weather and all life.The passage of the Sun’s fiery disc across the sky — day by day, month by month — was the only way to keep track of time for
The preliminary results of a survey of ancient Hermione (epichoric Hermion) are presented in this paper. The survey was conducted during three short campaigns over the period 2015–2017, and focused on the urban layout and development of the ancient city. Because the ancient city area more or less coincides with modern Ermioni, the investigation was mainly restricted to the documentation and analys
In this article, we explore the importance of feedback on students’ literature essays and challenges in encouraging active and transformational engagement with such feedback. In addition to standard practice of student-centred peer review coupled with feedback from teachers, our model consists of a scaffolded pair of reflection tasks that students are required to complete. Based on a study of 245 This article explores ways of encouraging student engagement with feedback on literature essays. In addition to standard practice of student-centred peer review coupled with feedback from teachers, we have developed a scaffolded pair of reflection tasks on an introductory-level English literature course. With a focus on our two-step model for student self-reflection, this article highlights some c
We investigate the use of particle filter (PF) estimation techniques on a hovercraft vehicle in an office environment. Monte Carlo Localization (MCL) with particle filtering is a popular method for localizing robots with laser range finders. In maps featuring long, uniform corridors though, a PF can produce low confidence estimates. When used as feedback to control an unstable vehicle this can pro
