유리피데스의 『올리스의 이피지니아 Iphigenia at Aulis』에서의 여성 -고통받는 자들

김라옥 ( Kin Ra-ok ) 대한영어영문학회 1998 영어영문학연구 Vol.24 No.3

One of the main themes in Euripides's plays is woman in suffering. It is in his treatment of abused and wronged women that Euripides shows his keenest insights. In the Alcestis, Hippolytus, The Medea, The Trojan Women, his understanding of women and their situations is admirable. He has sympathy for all the victims of society, including womankind. In this point Euripides presents his uniqueness among all the Greek writers. His last and posthumous play Iphigenia in Aulis also shows his sympathy for women as the victim sufferers. The chorus are the women of Chalcis in Euboea who have crossed over to Aulis. The women surprised at the news of war and came to see the Greek ships for Troy and the heroes in the quest of Helen. They are young wives and common people who have the universal viewpoints and desires with which Euripides agrees. The songs they sing are hymns to happy home and modest passion, and prayers for joyful return. It is Clytemnestra who is the most impressive person in this play, not Iphigenia nor Agamemnon. Her anger, pain, and desperation are vividly expressed and have an appeal to the audience. She is a person who has dauntlessness and dignity. She is not a weak woman. But that she can not defend her most precious daughter proves the vulnerable status of the Greek woman. The defeat of Clytemnestra who is a queen and proud woman is more shocking than the death of Iphigenia who seems obedient and docile. Iphigenia is a symbol of an innocent victim. The why she is sacrificed is that the Greek troops want to leave for Troy at any cost. Every society has made its victims from the weak. The demand on a man to murder his brothers and children and kin with the name of love of his country, love of his people, and civilization is the act of uncivilization. Through the sacrifice of Iphigenia Euripides makes us to remind of the suffering of the innocent victims in all ages.

Individual Contribution in Brain-storming: Does Group Composition Make a Difference?

Wai-Kin Yip,Chun-Ming Chow,Kin-Wai Cheng,Chi-Ping Cheuk,Catherine McBride-Chang 대한사고개발학회 2007 The International Journal of Creativity & Problem Vol.17 No.2

Factors affecting individual performance in group tasks such as social loafing and social facilitation have been widely investigated. Past studies compared groups made up of friends or strangers based on prior acquaintance before the experiment, without directly manipulating the level of group cohesiveness. Based on Karau and William’s (1997) rationale about the effect of group cohesiveness on social facilita- tion and social loafing, we tested two hypotheses: (1) When individual members do brain-storming in high cohesiveness group, they work harder and generate more ideas (social facilitation). (2) When individual members do brain-storming in low cohesiveness group, they work less hard and generate fewer ideas (social loafing). Results supported the second hypothesis, but failed to support the first one.

An Analysis of the Conditional Volatility Dynamics of the Australian Business Cycle

Kin Yip Ho,Albert K Tsui,Zhaoyoung Zhang 중앙대학교 경제연구소 2007 Journal of Economic Development Vol.32 No.2

In this paper, we analyse the conditional variance of the Australian real gross domestic product (GDP) and the expenditure components by a variety of generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models. First, we test the plausibility of the constant-correlation assumption by employing Tse’s (2000) Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test and the Bera and Kim’s (2002) Information Matrix (IM) test. Our results indicate that the correlations among the shocks to real GDP and its various expenditure components are invariant over time. In addition, these shocks are not highly correlated with one another. Second, we examine if volatility asymmetry exists in the Australian business cycle by proposing four bivariate asymmetric GARCH specifications. Except for the case of gross fixed capital formation, the evidence of asymmetric conditional volatility in the growth rates of the Australian real GDP and the other components is weak. Despite the weak evidence of asymmetric volatility, higher volatility is generally associated with the contractionary phase of the Australian business cycle. This finding has important implications for macroeconomic policy and forecasting for business cycle.

A Reagent-Ready-on-Chip Microfluidic Immunoassay System for Rapid Detection of Influenza A H1N1 and H3N2 Viruses

Kin Fong Lei,Jun-Liang Liu,Chia-Hao Huang,Rei-Lin Kuo,Ngan-Ming Tsang 한국바이오칩학회 2016 BioChip Journal Vol.10 No.1

Development of effective disease screening method is the best approach for the control of infectious diseases. However, conventional screening methods require to operate in well-equipped laboratory. That makes the screening operation expensive and time-consuming. In this work, a reagent-ready-on-chip microfluidic immunoassay system was developed and rapid detection of influenza A H1N1 and H3N2 viruses was demonstrated to show its simplicity and rapidity. The microfluidic system integrated 4 single-stroke thermopneumatic actuators and a reaction chamber. All related reagents were pre-installed in the system and manipulated automatically for indirect immunoassay. Detection of influenza A H1N1 and H3N2 viruses based on its internal structure protein, i.e., nucleoprotein (NP), was demonstrated using the system. Result was represented by colorimetric signal in the reaction chamber. The use of thermopneumatic actuation could achieve fluid manipulation without external assistive equipment and colorimetric result could be observed directly without the need of external dedicated detector. Influenza virus screening could be completed around 1 hour with less sample volume (20 μL) and reagent volume (50 μL). The system achieved one-step operation of immunoassay. It is highly integrated and has potential to be developed to portable devices to realize rapid diagnostics in remote environment and clinics without well-equipped facility.

Developing Creative Thinking among Design Students

Kin Wai Michael Siu,Yi Lin Wong 대한사고개발학회 2015 The International Journal of Creativity & Problem Vol.25 No.1

In today’s information explosion era, the creation and manipulation of knowledge have become more favoured than its memorisation, especially when learning reaches a higher level. It has become more important for design students, who are supposed to perform higher order thinking and possess creative ability, to generate new ideas. However, not all design students can access their creativity on the first day of their design study. How best to nurture creativity among design students thus becomes an important issue. In this paper, the limitations of current creative thinking development are identified through a case study of Hong Kong, and a framework is proposed to address these limitations so that creativity and its thought processes can be nurtured and developed among students. It is hoped that the findings and discussions in the paper will provide direction for teachers and researchers in facilitating creativity and developing students’ creative thinking.

Enhancing Teachers' Incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into Classroom Teaching : A Professional Development Strategy

Kin Ping Leung,James J. Watters,Ian Ginns APEC국제교육협력원 2006 Asia-Pacific Cybereducation Journal Vol.2 No.1

Throughout the Asia-Pacific region, despite government efforts to promote the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in schools, the acceptance and use of these technologies by classroom teachers has been slow to take off. This study focused on ascertaining the effectiveness of a school-based, on-site, and ongoing professional development program conducted in a primary school in Hong Kong. There were training sessions conducted by fellow teachers, and participatory action research groups to share resources and experience in incorporating ICT in teaching. Teachers’ incorporation of computers in teaching was significantly increased in the first year of intervention but showed fluctuation in the second year. A number of explanations for these changes were offered by teachers in their interviews. The lower self-ratings in year two may be due to changes in self-perception rather than changes in actual ability or practices.
