Holocaust Denial And Libraries: Should Libraries Acquire Revisionist Materials?, John A. Drobnicki
Holocaust Denial And Libraries: Should Libraries Acquire Revisionist Materials?, John A. Drobnicki
Publications and Research
Historical revision is a valid practice whereby historians reinterpret the past from different viewpoints and in the light of new documents or research. Those who deny the Holocaust, however, call themselves "revisionists" in an attempt to gain scholarly legitimacy, trying to align themselves with the' historians of the 1920s and 1930s who reinterpreted the causes of the first World War. Should libraries acquire materials that deny the Holocaust, whether through purchase or donation?
The War Of Griffin’S Pig: A Bibliography Of The Anglo-American Northwest Boundary Dispute, John A. Drobnicki
The War Of Griffin’S Pig: A Bibliography Of The Anglo-American Northwest Boundary Dispute, John A. Drobnicki
Publications and Research
Differences in interpretation between the United States and Great Britain over the Oregon Treaty and ownership of the San Juan Islands nearly erupted into open hostilities when an American settler, Lyman Cutler, shot and killed a pig that was owned by Charles Griffin, the Hudson's Bay Company agent on San Juan. Both countries sent troops to the islands, but cooler heads eventually prevailed. Although the "Pig War" lasted for a decade, the only casualty was the aforementioned pig. This bibliography is limited to published materials about the Pig War itself, including both primary materials and secondary sources, as well as …

Inventing Academic Discourse: Teaching (And Learning) Marginal Poise And Fugitive Truth, Jane Hindman
Inventing Academic Discourse: Teaching (And Learning) Marginal Poise And Fugitive Truth, Jane Hindman
Publications and Research
This article further develops earlier versions of transformative pedagogy (e.g., Bartholomae and Petrosky's, Bizzell's, Lu's, Horner's), demonstrating how the self-reflexive tactics required in an analysis of professional practice make visible the ways that compositionists authorize academic discourse. David Bartholomae describes this as the teachers' unconscious need to "see ourselves in what [students] do." The pedagogical method proposed explains how features like "objectivity," "clarity," and [constraining] "voice" in academic discourse are misrecognized in our own rhetoric AND in our evaluations of our students. Because we demand these stylistic and institutionalized conventions of academic discourse from our students, we should-the paper argues-include …

Stravinsky's Serial "Mistakes", Joseph N. Straus
Stravinsky's Serial "Mistakes", Joseph N. Straus
Publications and Research
In 1952, after the completion of The Rake's Progress, Stravinsky embarked on a remarkable voyage of compositional discovery. His late works differ from his earlier ones in striking and profound ways. During the final two decades of his life, every major work was almost shockingly new, right down to original, and ever-changing, principles of structural formation. The works in this period describe a succession of compositional firsts, including his first works to use a series (Cantata [1952], Septet [ 1953], Three Songs from William Shakespeare [1954]); his first fully serial work (In Memoriam Dylan Thomas [1954]); his …
Emma And The Countryside: Weather And A Place For A Walk, Elizabeth Toohey
Emma And The Countryside: Weather And A Place For A Walk, Elizabeth Toohey
Publications and Research
Raymond Williams in The Country and the City dismisses Jane Austen's depiction of the land around her as simply "weather or a place for a walk." In Emma's ideology, however, there is a tension between an ostensibly apolitical stance, which is de facto conservative in working to maintain the status quo, and the extent to which a more progressive agenda can be seen through the social mobility of certain principle characters, albeit by "conservative means." For all the leisure, picnics, and parties that constitute the greater part of Emma, labor is evident and valued. The country may be largely …

Revisiting The Struggle For Integration, Michelle Fine, Bernadette Anand
Revisiting The Struggle For Integration, Michelle Fine, Bernadette Anand
Publications and Research
The project we describe in this article emerged from thinking about Fridays. While the Monday through Thursday schedule at Renaissance Middle School in Montclair, New Jersey covers the traditional distribution of curriculum, Fridays are dedicated to nine-week cycles of two hour sessions. Each session involves in-depth work focusing on five themes: Aviation, Genetics, Building Bridges, Community Service and this, the Oral History Project. Because the school is thematically organized around core notions of justice, history, social movements and "renaissances" (that is, Italian, Harlem and Montclair), we structured this project around the deeply contested history of desegregation of the Montclair public …
Retórica De La Predicación E Ideología Dominica En La Quinta Parte De El Conde Lucanor, Fernando Degiovanni
Retórica De La Predicación E Ideología Dominica En La Quinta Parte De El Conde Lucanor, Fernando Degiovanni
Publications and Research
Resumen
Frente a la hipótesis ampliamente aceptada de que la quinta parte de El Conde Lucanor no tiene relación temática y formal directa con el resto del libro de Don Juan Manuel, este trabaj o postula que la última sección no sólo representa una prolongación del asunto de la "ética estamental" presente en los "enxiemplos" y proverbios, sino que, desde el punto de vista retórico, es la porción destinada por el autor para operar como complemento discursivo de las restantes. En este sentido, luego de estudiar sus características estructurales - en especial, los procedimientos de la amplificatio -, y atribuir …
Review Of La Imagen De Nuestros Músicos: Del Siglo De Oro A Edad De Plata, Antoni Pizà
Review Of La Imagen De Nuestros Músicos: Del Siglo De Oro A Edad De Plata, Antoni Pizà
Publications and Research
La imagen de nuestros músicos: Del Siglo de Oro a la Edad de Plata is a hefty compilation of 681 portraits of Spanish composers from the Renaissance to the present. The illustrations are organized in four large chapters: "Del siglo de oro a la ilustración", covers the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries; "El primer romanticismo" and "El segundo romanticismo", deal with the first and second half of the 19th century; the final section, "Los músicos de nuestro siglo" focuses on the 20th century. If my numbers are correct, the earliest composer included in the study is the polyphonist Cristóbal de …
