  • Contemporary narrative and documentary share across boundaries between the 'actuality' and the 'creative treatment.' The documentary has blended modes of representation from various genre to reflect the world changing. The narrative movies also has applied the historicality of 'evidence' and 'documents' from documentary to obtain the new form of realism. Boyhood shows a differentiated realism to retain both the narrative structure and the documentary temporality, containing 12 years of timeline with the limited artificial space time. Boyhood also takes the analogical concept of 'the dramatization of the actual materials' from the early documentary films.

  • Objectives: Among adolescent development tasks, being independent of parents is an essential process for emotional and physical separation. There are many conflicts of separation and individuation between parents and adolescents; however, most clinicians explore the process of separation and individuation only from adolescents' perspective. Whether simultaneously or sequentially, separation-individuation occurs between adolescents and parents, respectively. The authors have already introduced the theory of synchronized individuation in a clinical case to explain the concept of this intersubjective phenomena. This study also attempts to prove the synchronized individuation theory through the interaction of characters in a movie and a fairy tale. Methods: The authors present the basis for the theory of synchronized individuation of adolescence through the growing process of Mason Junior, the main character of the movie "Boyhood," and from the process of the separation of a hen, Sprout, and an orphaned duckling in "The hen who dreamed she could fly." Results: Synchronized individuation was developed and observed from Mason, the son's perspective in "Boyhood," and Sprout, the mother's subjective perspective in the story of the hen. Conclusion: Increasing conflict and mutual impact in the relationship between adolescents and parents, ambivalent feelings for separation, selective identification of each other, mutual respect through mutual recognition, and role changes in relationship position were confirmed. Sons and mothers were individualized with synchronization.

  • This essay "Twain's Contestation of Emersonian Transcendental Manhood in Huckleberry Finn" explores how Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884) manifests his postwar contestation of Ralph Waldo Emerson's transcendental manhood that endorses the dogmatic, egocentric, and decorporealized position of the Cartesian subject, who believes his being's unity, elevation, and centrality through his fantasy of possessing direct access to divine truth. The connection between Emerson and Twain is based not on Emerson's influence on Twain but on their common interest in American landscape as a site for the redefinition of manhood and masculinity. I examine different types of manhood in their association with nature in Huckleberry Finn by comparing them with the two fundamental concepts of Emerson's philosophy: "a true man" in "Self-Reliance" (1841) and transparent eyeball vision in Nature (1836). Twain's use of Huck's ambivalent position-his centrality as a protagonist in the novel in spite of his marginality in society-renegotiates Emerson's valorization of nonconformity, wholeness, and nonchalance as the characteristics of both boyhood and "a true man," Emerson's term for the ideal individual in "Self-Reliance." I also read Twain's satire of two different types of masculine characters-Bob and the Child of Calamity, boatmen of the Southern frontier, and Colonel Grangerford, patriarch of a Southern aristocratic family-as Twain's denouncement of the antebellum desire for transcendental vision, which Emerson crystalizes into his notion of transparent eyeball in Nature.

  • Since Korea disclaimed to open the ports, Korean architecture has met the impetuous transformation. Although there would be various factors of this transformation, the new-coming architecture by missionary seemed to be a significant one, and many researches have been carried out on this theme in diverse viewpoints. However, because these researches have preponderated on the Catholic tradition, it is deficient for clarify the whole history of mission architecture. Therefore, this research has the meaning to enrich the history of Korean modern architecture by making balance. First of all, this paper is focused on the activities of one missionary, Graham Lee. He is a practical missionary at the beginning, his architecture made a critical influence in Korean traditional architecture. Graham Lee was born in Rock Island, Illinois, 1861, and he determined to become a missionary through grown up. He spent his boyhood by working as a plumber for his purpose and studied in a university afterward. Graduating of McComick Theological Seminary, he was nominated as a pioneer of Pyeng Yang Mission Station and set foot in Korea, September of 1892. Since then he started to erect missionary facilities in Pyeng Yang, such as Well House(1898), Pyeng Yang Central Church(1900-1901), Pyeng Yang Academy(1902). These all his works are designed with eclectic style which shows western and Korean traditional style intermingled. This unique characteristic made a profound influence to the Korean mission architecture afterwards. Especially, the L-type plan of Pyeng Yang Central Church, which is first shown by him, is recognized very unique, and this plan type had been spread all over the country. Therefore the L-type plan became the peculiar feature of the early Korean churches. Furthermore, working with Korean carpenters, he taught them new skills of modem buildings. After that, they were expanded out northern part of Korea and took the roles of master builders. According to this expansion, his particular style had got spread and had been settled as a unique eclectic style in Korean modern architecture. In the conclusion, he is evaluated to be a critical pioneer missionary, who left a big influence on the frame work of Korean modern architecture in the transitional times.

  • We arrive at the conclusion as follows as for the connection between dietary life, hours of exercise and growth of body, based on the survey of their height, this circumference of the breast and their body weight, and the questionnaires to the pupils of 36,547 in totals (contained the primary and middle school boys and girls) in four districts(named A, B, C and D district) of Jeonlla Bug Do from April, 1970 to March, 1973. (1) The growth in height. The boys from 6 to 7 years old are nearly same in all districts, but as age increases, those of A district grow more rapidly than those of B, C and D districts, while those of B, C and D districts grow almost samely. The girls already from 6 years old on are different between A district and B, C, D district. The average of height in Jeonlla Bug Do is not different from that of Gyungi Do and whole nation in the pupils from 6 to 11 years old, and that of Japan from 6 to 7 of age, while it falls behind them as age increases. (2) The growth in the circumference of the breast. The boys from 6 to 9 years old show nearly the same tendency in all districts, after that age the boys in A district tend to grow rapidly, those in B district most fall behind, and those in C, D districts show the same tendency. Contrasted with height the growth in the circumference of the breast does not show the difference in each district so far as 14 of age, but after 15 years old it shows a little difference by falling behind of pupils in A district, while those B, C, D districts show almost the same tendency. The average of the circumference of the breast in Jeonlla Bug Do of the pupils from 10 to 11 of age is almost same to that of Gyungi Do, whole nation and Japan, but shows difference after that age. (3) The growth of body weight. The body weight of boys over-all the investigated whole age shows the superiority in A district and a little lowness in D district which is almost same to that of B, C districts. In that of girls, A district is superior in from 6 to 9 of age, and all districts are nearly same after that age. The average in Jeonlla Bug Do is one and the same to those of Gyungi Do, whole nation and Japan as in the height, but shows the great difference as years grow. (4) The dietary life of the pupils in Jeonlla Bug Do depends chiefly upon a carbohydrate and is very low in the intake of fat and protein. Connected with a view point of districts, the intake of protein is a little more in A district than in the other districts, and is nearly same in the other districts. They tend more to eat mixed food, but about 40% of them do not yet eat it. The contents and taking of lunch is bad in the highest degree, to which their parents are entirely indifferent. As far as the hours of exercise are concerned with, about 40% of all pupils must go to the school from very far, which gives them the heavy physical suffering, and especially it is remarked that the middle school boys and girls should attend school from farther than the primary school boys and girls.
