Imperial Eyes: Rhetorics of Empire Building in the Movie Robinson Crusoe
Essay from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: manque, Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah University (Faculté des lettres), course: Anglais/ Cultural Studies/ Postcolonialism, language: English, abstract: In this paper I analyze the movie Robinson Crusoe to understand the rhetoric of empire building and to stand at instances of appropriation that push the west to cherish superiority over the “other”. I focus on the discursive strategies used by the west to inferiorize the other race and to reduce them to cruel creatures. I start by dwelling on the representation of the “other” and the landscape and I focus on the production of knowledge as a tool used to inferiroize them. At the end I stop at some paradoxes within the colonial discourse that create ruptures in the western empire. I do that by questing signs of resistance that break the discourse of empire building and that reveal the ambivalent nature of the colonial discourse. Keywords: Robinson Crusoe - Colonial Discourse - Empire Building – Orientalism - Film Studies
Advanced Techniques of Honey Analysis
Advanced Techniques of Honey Analysis: Characterization, Authentication, and Adulteration presents an overview of honey - its classification, composition, safety, present status, quality issues and prospects - before delving into honey adulteration and presenting various methodologies for honey analysis. Broken into fourteen chapters, this book explores physiochemical, bioactive compound, aroma, microbial, thermal, and rheological analysis of honey. It also considers infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and Raman spectroscopy methods. High-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography and GC-MS methods are also highlighted. Written for food scientists and those working in honey industries and related fields, this book will be a welcomed resource for all who wish to play a role in mitigating honey fraud. - Contains comprehensive information on novel honey analytical techniques - Discusses the characterization of determination of honey adulteration by various novel methods - Sheds light on Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in honey analysis - Includes applications, literature reviews, recent developments, and methods
Applying Qualitative Research Methods to Management Science
In academic research, qualitative analysis is a pillar for understanding complex phenomena in science and management. However, researchers and practitioners often face challenges navigating the ever-evolving landscape of qualitative methodologies and their integration into empirical projects. This knowledge gap can hinder the practical application of qualitative approaches, leading to suboptimal research outcomes and missed opportunities for insightful discoveries. Applying Qualitative Research Methods to Management Science serves as a beacon for researchers, practitioners, and students, providing a detailed roadmap to navigate the intricacies of qualitative analysis. Each chapter, authored by esteemed experts in the field, delves into specific qualitative themes and methodologies, offering practical insights and theoretical foundations based on the latest academic research. This book empowers readers to conduct rigorous and impactful qualitative research in diverse contexts by bridging the gap between theory and application.
Honey Bees, Beekeeping and Bee Products
Honey bees are social insects; they live together in large, well-organized family groups comprising three castes: queen (fertile female), workers (sterile females) and drones (males). During honey flow season, there is a considerable increase in the foraging activity of the workers and in the rate of egg laying by the queen. Sex determination in honey bees involves a multi-allelic locus, such that homozygotes develop as males and heterozygotes as females, whereas diet quality influences the caste determination in honey bees. Like all living organisms, honey bees can be infested with diseases and pests. Some of these are more deleterious to bee colonies than others, but it is important for th...

In light of the significant contribution of chemistry to benefit of mankind, this book is a collection of recent results generated from research in chemistry and interdisciplinary areas. It covers topics ranging from nanotechnology, natural product chemistry to analytical and environmental chemistry. Chemistry: The Key to our Sustainable Future is written for graduates, postgraduates, researchers in industry and academia who have an interest in the fields ranging from fundamental to applied chemistry.
Unsettling Whiteness
This book examines definitions and the complex artistic, intimate and institutional means by which whiteness continues to be both resisted and reproduced.
Commutative Algebra and its Applications
This volume contains selected refereed papers based on lectures presented at the ‘Fifth International Fez Conference on Commutative Algebra and Applications’ that was held in Fez, Morocco in June 2008. The volume represents new trends and areas of classical research within the field, with contributions from many different countries. In addition, the volume has as a special focus the research and influence of Alain Bouvier on commutative algebra over the past thirty years.
La région du Nord-Ouest marocain: Parlers et practiques sociales et culturelles
Este libro colectivo recoge 20 artículos sobre una de las regiones más interesantes de Marruecos, Jbala, situada en el noroeste del país. La mayor parte son trabajos de dialectología árabe o bereber, y tres de ellos aportan un enfoque interdisciplinar desde la antropología o la etnobotánica. Pocos lingüistas se han atrevido a realizar trabajo de campo en una zona rural a priori más cerrada y conservadora que las ciudades que la rodean. Es, por ello, que algunos datos necesitaban ser actualizados o incluso recogidos por primera vez. En los trabajos reunidos en este volumen, se encuentra desde el estado de la cuestión de lo realizado hasta ahora sobre las variedades árabes de Jbala y una propuesta de clasificación de una de las variedades bereberes de la región, hasta la descripción de algunas de las variedades árabes habladas en ella. La documentación o puesta al día de las variedades árabes y bereberes habladas en Jbala es importante debido al proceso de variación y nivelación lingüística que está teniendo lugar a causa del contacto inter-dialectal, cada vez más frecuente por los cambios económicos y sociales que vive la región.
