The Ethical Analysis Of Risks And Potential Benefits In Human Subjects Research: History, Theory, And Implications For U.S. Regulation, Charles Weijer

Charles Weijer

This paper addresses three questions central to the ethical analysis of risks and potential benefits in human subjects research:

1. How was the ethical analysis of risk understood by the members of the U.S. National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research (National Commission)?
2. What conceptual framework should guide the ethical analysis of risk?
3. What changes to U.S. regulations would the implementation of such a framework require?

Barrio-Logos: Space And Place In Urban Chicano Literature And Culture, Raul Villa

Raul Villa

Struggles over space and resistance to geographic displacement gave rise to much of Chicano history and culture. In this pathfinding book, Raúl Villa explores how California Chicano/a writers, journalists, artists, activists, and musicians have used expressive culture to oppose the community-destroying forces of urban renewal programs and massive freeway development and to create and defend a sense of Chicano place-identity. Villa opens with a historical overview that shows how Chicano communities and culture have developed in response to conflicts over space ever since the United States’ annexation of Mexican territory in the 1840s. Then, turning to the work of contemporary …

"Nothing Done!”: The Poet In Early Nineteenth-Century American Culture, Jill Anderson

Jill E. Anderson

In this dissertation, I argue that early nineteenth-century American poets’ and readers’ interpretations of Romanticism shaped their understanding of the role poetry and its producers could play in a developing national culture. By examining the public careers and private sentiments of four male poets — William Cullen Bryant, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe, and Jones Very — I analyze how each reconciled poetic vocation with the moral and economic obligations associated with the attainment of manhood. I locate these poets and their critics within specific historical discourses of aesthetic reception and production, focusing on the tensions and overlaps between …

Malagasy Clause Structure, Ileana Paul

Ileana Paul

This thesis explores the nature of voice in Malagasy, a language spoken in Madagascar. In chapter 2, it is claimed that different passives promote arguments from different structural positions. Evidence is provided for a particular position, [Spec, v2P], where a certain class of elements (“displaced themes”) may be generated. One particular passive, the aprefix, promotes to subject elements in this position. In chapter 3, arguments are presented in favour of a structural analysis of circumstantial topic (CT). CT morphology licenses all arguments of the verb. Due to a requirement that all clauses have a subject (the Extended Projection Principle), some …

Henry Wolking’S Ballet Forever Yesterday, Jeanne Belfy

Jeanne M. Belfy

Fifty years ago the Louisville Orchestra under conductor Robert Whitney embarked on a path of commissioning compositions by contemporary composers with civic and foundation support. One principal offshoot of the endeavor resulted in a historic recording project for new music, funded in part by a ground-breaking grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. Ten years and over two hundred compositions later, the Louisville Orchestra had established both the basic framework for orchestral commissioning projects and a model for the collaboration of orchestras and private foundations in support of serious new music. By the 1990s, such activities are an assumed part of our …

Thomas Heywood’S “Art Of Love”: The First Complete English Translation Of Ovid’S “Ars Amatoria”; Edited, With Introduction, Notes, And Commentary, M. Stapleton

M. L. Stapleton

Thomas Heywood (ca 1573-1641) was a major Renaissance playwright who wrote or collaborated on over two hundred plays. Loues Schoole was one of his many nondramatic works that shows his fascination with antiquity. It was the standard English translation of the Ars in the seventeenth century, so popular that it was pirated almost as soon as he had written it--then printed, sold, reprinted, and resold in England and the Netherlands. It was not attributed to him during his lifetime, and he was not allowed to share in the profits that its (considerable) sales generated, two things that rankled him for …
