This thesis aims to clarify and strengthen an epistemological challenge to moral realism. I argue that evolutionary influence defeats the epistemic justification of beliefs about objective moral truths. Realism leads to skepticism. The evolutionary debunking argument challenges the two branches of moral realism on two levels. It challenges nonnaturalism by showing how evolutionary influence is evidence that nonnaturalist moral beliefs are insensitive to truth. It challenges naturalism on the basis that the belief about moral-natural identity is similarly defeated by evolutionary influence. A plausible version of conservative epistemology offers a limited, prima facie support to realist moral beliefs. On the basis of this conservatism, realism enjoys a prima facie, defeasible initial advantage. This initial advantage puts the burden of proof on the debunker who denies the justification of realist moral beliefs. The epistemic defeater in the evolutionary debunking argument is best understood as a belief that renders the subject irresponsible in making sure that her beliefs are sensitive to truth. Evolution has had a doxastically-discriminating influence on the vast majority, if not all, of our moral beliefs. The apparent maladaptiveness of some moral beliefs can be evolutionarily explained (away). The belief in the evolutionary account of moral beliefs can serve as such an epistemic defeater, because given the influence evolution has on our moral beliefs, these beliefs would persist no matter the truth. Using a third factor to establish the harmony between moral truths and moral beliefs relies on question-begging assumptions. Some realists mistakenly think that they are entitled to all the assumptions of the debunker. Due to differences between the evolutionary histories of our moral versus factual beliefs, the debunking argument does not spill over to perceptual beliefs.

La pédagogie appelée seikatsu tsuzurikata (litt. écriture ou rédaction de la vie) s’est développée à partir de 1912 dans le cadre du mouvement de l’« éducation libérale de Taishô » (Taishô jiyû kyôiku). Durant ces années, de nombreuses écoles privées furent établies sur la base des principes de l’éducation nouvelle développés dans les pays occidentaux. Dans certaines écoles publiques également, quelques jeunes enseignants « progressistes » s’efforcèrent de développer une pédagogie permettant notamment aux enfants de s’exprimer plus librement et intimement dans leurs rédactions. L’« expression écrite » (tsuzurikata) était en effet la seule matière à ne pas être contrainte par l’utilisation des manuels scolaires imposés par l’Etat, et elle constituait en ce sens un champ d’expérimentation relativement libre. Malgré l’oppression du gouvernement militariste avant et pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, cette méthode fut alors suffisamment élaborée pour survivre dans des classes japonaises d’après-guerre jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Nous étudierons dans cette thèse le contexte historique dans lequel a émergé cette forme de pédagogie, qui vise un développement global des enfants, c’est-à-dire tant au niveau intellectuel (les connaissances) qu’émotionnel (la personnalité). La question qui nous guidera dans cette étude sera de comprendre comment et pourquoi cette pédagogie s’est développée dans un système éducatif qui, du fait des principes sur lesquels il s’était développé et des objectifs qui lui avaient être fixés à partir de l’ère Meiji (1868-1912), ne pouvait pourtant a priori que la rejeter.

The pedagogy called seikatsu tsuzurikata was developed after 1912 within the «Taishô liberal education movement» (Taishô jiyû kyôiku). During this period, many private schools were established on the basis of the ideas of the «New Education» imported from West. In several public schools also, some young «progressive» teachers tried to develop one pedagogy that could help the children to express more freely in their writing. The composition (tsuzurikata) was in those days the only class that had no obligation to use the textbook screened by the government. Therefore, this class offered the teachers the possibilities to do some experiments relatively freely. Although the oppression by the government before and during the Second World War, this method was elaborated enough to survive in the Japanese classes after the War until the present time. We will study in this thesis the historical context in which emerged this form of education which aims at a holistic development of children, that is to say, both intellectually (knowledge) and emotional (personality). The question that will guide us in this study will be to understand both how and why this pedagogy succeeded to develop in an educational system which, because of the principles and objectives on which it was developed from the Meiji era (1868-1912), was a priori supposed to reject it.

▼ This dissertation is in two parts. The first one is an original composition, Latin Rhapsody for Clarinet and Orchestra. The second is a musical analysis, Magical Realism in Alejandro Cardona’s String Quartet No. 4. Latin Rhapsody for Clarinet and Orchestra uses Costa Rican ideas combined with classical contemporary sonorities, such as clusters and small pitch-class sets. The first movement, Tambito, is based on a Latin American dance rhythm in six-eight meter. The name of this dance is particular to Costa Rica, but it is a widely used rhythmic pattern used in other Latin American countries under other names. This movement is fast and explosive, showing off the technical versatility of the clarinet. Its form is through composed using different variants from the main theme. The second movement is called La Fortuna at Night, describing a place in the countryside in Costa Rica where I used to go when I was a child. A lyrical clarinet melody is accompanied by transparent sonorities. The form of the movement is A-B-A1, where B serves as an interlude to the melody of the soloist. The third movement, Carnival, is based on the annual carnival from the province of Limón, mainly influenced by black culture. A catchy and playful melody is presented in the clarinet, serving as the developing material throughout. The timbales (a traditional Afro-Caribbean instrument) set the carnival mood. Sonorities from the previous movements are combined with the main theme to create overall unity. The novel Pedro Páramo by the Mexican writer Juan Rulfo (1917-1986) inspired the composition of the String Quartet No. 4. Every section in the quartet is marked by a quotation from the book. My analysis involves the following stages: First, I discuss Cardona’s musical approach to the style of the novel, called magical realism. Through the analysis of the main themes and sonorities used in the quartet, I relate the worlds of music and literature. Second, I talk about the harmonic highlights in the work and explain how they create overall unity throughout.

▼ El objetivo central de la tesis es de hacer una analisis del realismo interno de Hilary Putnam y compararlo con las doctrinas del realismo metafisico y el realismo natural. La razon por la que tal comparacion se hace es porque Putnam mantuvo cada uno de estas tres doctrinas en algun periodo en su larga carrera filosofica. En el primer capitulo se hace un analisis del realismo metafisico tal como Putnam lo comprendio. En este capitulo se muestran las paradojas y los problemas que llevaron a Putnam a eventualmente abandonar dicha doctrina. El segundo capitulo se ocupa de exponer los primeros desarrollos de la doctrina del realismo interno, como los son el argumento de los modelos, el verificacionismo semantico y el celebre argumento del cerebro en la cubeta. Lo que se busca en este capitulo es mostrar los problemas que trae la teoria realista de la referencia y cómo el realismo interno se presenta como una alternativa a tal enfoque. En el tercer capitulo presento una de las ideas centrales del realismo interno, la idea de la verdad como asertabilidad garantizada. A diferencia de la idea realista de la verdad como correspondencia, el enfoque internista mantiene la idea que la verdad no puede estar desligada de la justificacion, de manera que la justificacion siempre debe estar disponible para la verdad. El cuarto capítulo se ocupa de analizar la relación y el lugar de los esquemas conceptuales en el realismo interno. En éste capítulo defiendo la idea (propuesta por Jennifer Case, 2001) que los esquemas conceptuales deben ser entendidos como lenguajes opcionales. La idea de la relatividad conceptual es muy importante en la filosofia de Putnam pues combate la idea de la dicotomia entre hechos y convenciones. De otro lado, en este capitulo defiendo la idea que la relatividad conceptual es una constante en la filosofia de Putnam, contradiciendo asi los criticos que insisten que la filofofia de Putnam esta en constante cambio. El quinto capítulo es una confrontación entre el realismo interno y el realismo natural, inspirado por William James, Wittgenstein y Austin. En este capitulo muestro que, luego del análisis de ambos enfoques, la idea de una semejanza entre éstos no es del todo obsoleta. Sin embargo, en este ultimo capitulo enfatizo que Putnam es ambivalente en cuanto a los sense-data, pues en su periodo internista los acepta para luego (en su 1999) abandonarlos y finalmente (en su 2012) volver a aceptarlos de uuna cierta forma. En este ultimo capitulo tambien me ocupo del funcionalismo, el cual el mismo Putnam culpo de ser una doctrina solipsista. Argumento que una caracteristica del funcionalismo, a saber, la plasticidad composicional, es una evidencia del caracter abierto y liberal del realismo interno. Termino concluyendo que el realismmo interno es efectivamente una alternativa relevante frente a las doctrinas del realismo metafisico y natural. Sin embargo tal enfoque no esta libre de criticas, especialmente la ambiguedad en cuanto a los sense data. Concluyo tambien que las criticas que hiciera Putnam… Advisors/Committee Members: Sanfélix Vidarte, Vicente (advisor).

▼ TRANSFIGURING SOCIAL NATURE: ENVIRONMENTAL AND AESTHETIC TRANSFORMATIONS IN GERMAN REALISM Alexander Robert Phillips, Ph.D. This dissertation investigates the relation between post-1848 German realist aesthetics and the representation of nature as physically reconstituted by the human labor process. Environmental transformation in the form of cultivation, pollution, and sprawl would appear to pose a challenge to a realist poetics invested in achieving artistic status through "transfiguration" (Verklärung), or the synthesis between material reality and poesy, inasmuch as the mimetic representation of ecological depredation carries with it a reassertion of both prosaic capitalist relations and the base material reality capitalism produces. This study asks how Adalbert Stifter, Wilhelm Raabe, and Theodor Fontane negotiate the mimetic and poetic imperatives of realism where their texts encounter environmental depredation. I argue that the environment's increasingly social character feeds into each author's poetic project, such that environmental transformation grounds a dynamic realism that binds political critique with a broader theoretical reflection on the conditions of possibility for poesy in modernity. The encounter between the social production of nature and poetic realism is crucial for Stifter, for whom the cultivation of the environment mirrors the task he assigns to realist narrative of making perceptible the general moral order that sustains the universe. These cultivated utopias are impossible for Wilhelm Raabe, for whom environmental depredation becomes an agent of generative destabilization that stymies the transfiguration gesture and catalyzes a critical reevaluation of the status of art in a degraded world. Finally I turn to Fontane's Stechlin to consider how the poetic character of Brandenburg is determined by an emerging Anthropocene reality. By looking at the relation between environmental depredation and art, "Transfiguring Social Nature" develops a line of ecocritical inquiry that moves beyond the focus of much earlier ecocritical scholarship on nature and place to account for the poetically constitutive aspects of environmental transformation while also considering its deleterious effects. At the same time considering environmental issues as integral to the texts' otherwise social framework allows us to see realism both as a dynamic literary and theoretical discourse that also figures within the genealogy of contemporary environmentalism.

▼

The “experimental” in my title refers to Howells’s self-conscious development of a literary form that could give the most complete, deepest account of a reality characterized by the ordinary and even the banal. For the middle class, Howells’s perennial subject, the norm is to aspire to transcend, and the ordinary can appear elusive, even nonexistent. Of course, in political terms, a middle class culture considers everyone basically the same, this resemblance defining the ordinary. It is assumed that everyone shares the same economic goals, and the same desire for familial and individual success. Being ordinary is therefore a moral quality. This means, paradoxically, that ordinariness can only prove itself in exceptional individuals. To strive is virtuous, to fail is shameful; either way one’s ordinariness is subsumed to a greater drama. The drama at the center of middle class art is the plight of the exceptional individual demonstrating a Platonic ordinariness. It is hard to think of characters in novels who are not exceptional financially or morally. In Henry James’s The Portrait of a Lady and The Wings of the Dove finance and morality go together. The novels of Eliot, Dickens, even those of the French realists unfold stories in which ordinary characters, by some exceptional moral quality, try to transcend their economic and historical situations. Howells called this story romantic and insisted on writing about the most mundane aspects of ordinary life. His novels were not about the exceptional who rise above the crowd but about ordinary people who do not transcend but stay on the ground. Howells described this divide between moral ideals and actual economic circumstance as “the infernal juggle of the mind. ” This contradiction at the heart of everyday life was what he wanted to depict. His design of characters and plots, even his sentences, develop continuously into further complexity as they discover the tensions and self-betrayal inherent in middle class optimism. “Discover” is the key term: Howells wrote in order to find out the truth about ordinary life, and the more he discovered the more his novels tended toward disjunction. In resisting the urge to reaffirm middle class morals, he was having not only a political argument with the dominant ideology of late-nineteenth century America but a formal argument with the conventional novel. Down the critical years, Howells’s trust in the novel form to do its own work has been difficult to see because his way of demonstrating it was so unusual. To the extent that his form was un-transcendent, descriptive rather than theoretical, it has been unapparent. My dissertation is an attempt to make evident and describe the working of Howells’s unapparent form. I have used a method of analysis congruent with his practice. I proceed as he wrote, historically, by following the unfolding events of his style and form.

▼ Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERP) are very large and complex software packages that run every aspect of an organization. Increasingly, ERP systems are used in higher education to teach business processes, essential knowledge for students competing in today’s business environment. Past research attempting to measure learning business processes with ERP has been inconclusive and lacking in rigor. This dissertation contains a comprehensive research study that uses a critical realist approach to measure business process learning from experiential ERP. Using a business simulation game as a proxy for understanding business processes, students from (1) a US undergraduate program in three separate classes, one using ERP experientially, and (2) two UK postgraduate programs, one experiencing ERP and one not, are assessed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The data analysis results in a causal mechanism for learning, complemented by a list that trigger or suppress that mechanism in particular cases. The results validate the efforts of those using ERP in the classroom, and reaffirm other educational business school endeavors, with educational implications as follows. First, before attempting to learn business processes, students must know about business in order to enable them to learn this complex topic. Second, experiencing ERP systems indeed helps students understand business processes, with a cohesive curriculum integrating ERP benefitting students the most and students at the postgraduate level learning more deeply. Third, students are using the knowledge gained in university classes to make business decisions. Fourth, students should be encouraged to use all information possible for making business decisions instead of relying on their personal understanding of today’s current market, relying on their own business intuition or work experience. Last, teaching methods may need to be adjusted for postgraduates, especially those coming into programs with significant work experience.

▼ Besides Tora-san series and samurai trilogy, veteran Japanese filmmaker Yamada Yoji also endeavors in making family films, however, his ‘home drama’1 genre has long been neglected in academia. To fill this gap, the aims of this research are to investigate firstly the aesthetics of his social realistic films; secondly, what are the family values revealed in his family films and thirdly, how ‘woman’ is portrayed in his ‘home drama’. Working under the ‘director system’ of Shochiku Studio, this research argues that auteur theory which advocates director as the author of a film is applicable to Yamada and is thus employed to examine family films that are produced between 1970 and 2013. Background information of the auteur (author) and his films are reviewed in Part I of this thesis while Part II will focus on the discussion and analysis of the film aesthetics and motifs of Yamada Yoji’s family films. Similar to other cultural artefacts, film aesthetics cannot stand apart from the surrounding culture. Italian neorealism which flourished at the time when Yamada entered the film industry will be used to examine Yamada’s stylistic orientation. It is found that except collaborating with professional actors, Yamada’s films display most of the characteristics of Italian neorealism. In the pursuit of aesthetic realism, the “repeated team” (also known as ‘director’s team’) of Yamada at Shochiku Studio helped him to actualize his film aesthetics. With its adoption of ‘director system’ and ‘star system’, Shochiku is also known for producing shomingeki (film of ordinary people), so besides the possible influences from Italian neorealism, Shochiku Studio may have also cast influences to the artistic style of Yamada Yoji. Through intertextual reading of his social realistic films, the kind of social problem always lies in the dilemma between tradition and progression. Viewing ‘family’ as the fundamental unit of a society, Yamada presents to us the importance of preserving traditional virtues and family values in the continuation of a family so as to the sustainability of a society. This research reaffirms the influence of Chinese ideology on the construction of Japanese family system that the family relationships and the core family values found in films can well be explained by Chinese Confucianism. Under the patriarchal social context, it is interesting to discover the portrayal of ‘strong woman and weak man’ image in his family films. While the oppression of women is depicted in the process of modernization, the image of ‘strong woman’ is presented through the inscription of femininity in Yamada’s cinematic film texts. Rejecting the binary opposition of sexes, women in Yamada’s films is portrayed to encompass the qualities of masculinity and femininity under the ecriture feminine writing of Yamada. This feminine approach can be regarded as a way out, as proposed by the auteur, to tackle social challenges. Through an in-depth examination of Yamada Yoji’s family films, this research demonstrates that is a good way to learn…

▼ This dissertation traces two connected stories through the literary imagination of four American authors: William Dean Howells, Charles W. Chesnutt, Henry Adams, and James Weldon Johnson. Firstly, this dissertation examines the ideological role the expansion and ossification of the railway played in the development of American progressivism in the final decades of the nineteenth century and the first decades of the twentieth. I argue that the logic of the railway provided American writers with a new vocabulary through which to describe the abstract development of American history. Whereas in the eighteenth century, historical progress was conceived of as a course of human events, with the advent of the railway system, many began to imagine historical movement as a result of scientific certainties managed and developed by humans who conceived of themselves as not directly in control of those movements. By the twentieth century, the railway became what Henry Adams called an “Empire of Coal,” a material system of exchanges that spanned to globe and whose logic determined the moving limit of possibility for all civilization. Secondly, my dissertation tells the story of racial division in American during this period. Although the railway was often conceived of as a radically democratic space where the American people could interact as equals, this period also saw the development of state-sanctioned segregation laws against black citizens of the country. As the railway and its logic of historical development ossified in the minds of those who benefited from it, many black authors were perceptive critics of not only the politics of the railway but the underlying assumptions about how societies functioned that seemed to guarantee the dominant ideology’s concept of history. Taking my theoretical starting point in the works of Jacques Lacan and Karl Marx, I argue that in this period, the logic of the railway created a shift in the dominant assumptions of the nature of social differences. Whereas in the eighteenth century, racial difference had been conceived of as a historical constant, with the railway, racial difference became spatialized along the path of the railway.

▼ This project examines realism in fiction, film, and television after 1965. Questioning the analytic power of terms like “metafiction” and reconsidering the varied legacy of New Journalism, I argue that the media-intensive strategies common to newer strains of realism reinvigorate a literary program dating to the nineteenth-century social novel. A commitment to mimetic social reportage obtains in and after postmodernism, with realistic historical fiction emerging in recent years as the dominant mode of narrative art in American consensus culture. The texts I assess index a fascination with crafting a broad-strokes, “non-fiction” political history through a media-intensive, verité style contouring the familiar designs of popular genre fiction. More than identifying continuities between older and newer realisms, the project proposes that Realism as a cultural commonplace must be understood as a formal response to a crisis of knowledge, one that is inextricable from the fact of mediation and technology’s unrepresentable impact on forms of seeing, knowing, and thinking. The analysis methodologically foregrounds the epistemic connection between technics and technique as this interplay guides representational practices and drives realism’s narratological interest in mediation. The dissertation establishes a new critical idiom for describing how different texts theorize the intelligibility of the social through its communication in technological media. Focusing on a range of artists including Jenji Kohan, Don DeLillo, Kathryn Bigelow, Thomas Pynchon, Terrence Malick, and Rachel Kushner, and assessing texts such as Gravity’s Rainbow and Libra alongside Zero Dark Thirty, The Wire, and Orange is the New Black, the project proposes a techno-epistemological account of new realism and shows how media-intensive strategies in docudrama work to theorize, and even justify, the perceived cultural work of narrative art.

▼ This dissertation examines the evolution of the Soviet biographical film between the years 1934 and 1953, its stable recurrent elements and the major narrative changes that began to develop in the late 1930s. The study demonstrates two distinct types of narratives operative in the biographical films made before or around 1941 and those made in the 1940s. Chapter One introduces the categories that frame the analysis of Soviet film genre, an endeavor complicated by the fact that the Soviet critics openly challenged the notion of "genre." To avoid the confusion between the historical Soviet understanding of the genre and the contemporary definition of genre in film a larger distinction into epic and melodramatic modes of story-telling is introduced. Chapter Two analyses Stalinist culture’s gravitation toward the epic sense of reality, particularly evident in Soviet historiography and in theoretical statements on the development of narrative in Soviet film. The chapter shows how the disappearance of internal conflict in the protagonist, the loose episodic narrative structure and a static, austere, monumental style were welcomed and rationalized by the critics, who pronounced these developments welcome hallmarks of the epic film aesthetic. Chapter Three presents the case of one specific major concern of the Soviet film critics in their pursuit of the perfect cinematic realism, that of "naturalistic" tendencies that came to include a number of aesthetic phenomena. Acceptable in the 1920s Soviet art, portrayals of violence, death and disease still appeared in the 1930s' biographical films but had been positioned inside strong melodramatic collisions, and their affective power was leveraged for purposes of character motivation and for negotiation of peace-time ethics. Chapter Four discusses the narrative units that sustain the Soviet biopic, at various levels, like the elements that make up the plot, determine characterization and recur in mis-en-scenes.; The analysis shows that some elements appear to metaphorically express the theses of Stalinist historiography, while others may recur for no objective reason other than the fact that a specific gesture becomes part of a “natural” perception of the past and is repeated from film to film unreflectively.
