Yoshimura's Ghost: Essays On Rural Japan, Jen Cullerton Johnson
Yoshimura's Ghost: Essays On Rural Japan, Jen Cullerton Johnson
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Yoshimura’s Ghost: Essays on Rural Japan is a collection of six essays exploring the cultural phenomena and daily life of rural Japan. The collection represents my experiences of living as an educator, wife, and mother living in a post 9/11 world. Although not chronological, the essays flow episodically and illustrate examples of the social and cultural concepts that struck me as elements of otherness. Some of the essays in this collection examine the parallels between the exclusion and isolation I felt in Japan as compared to other marginalized groups. Several of the essays describe the culture of Japanese schooling, perhaps …

Cease Fire: One Woman's Search For Self In A Culture Of War, Christine R. Wettlaufer Ph.D.
Cease Fire: One Woman's Search For Self In A Culture Of War, Christine R. Wettlaufer Ph.D.
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Cease Fire is a war story told from one woman’s perspective. It’s about a farm girl and her battles fought as young soldier serving on a remote nuke site during the Cold War. It’s the interpretations of lived experiences, highs and lows of a military career fused with family life, and spanning over three decades. Like true war stories, Cease Fire has little to do with actual war. It is a sometimes humorous, but often tragic attempt to make peace and to make sense of the places, comrades and enemies that graced and plagued a career. First names and nicknames …

Through Other I'S: Las Otras, Brenda Nettles Riojas
Through Other I'S: Las Otras, Brenda Nettles Riojas
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
The “I” speaks in each of the poems presented; but whose I? The collection explores the use of personae, and gives voice to “the other” I’s/las otras, women who came before us and those who walk among us. Sometimes in English, sometimes in Spanish, sometimes the voices cross between languages. Written primarily in free verse, the poems are ordered to allow the mingling of languages from the speakers on the page. Through other eyes, some of the characters revive the past, speak from the grave. They provide a glimpse into what lies beyond the “I.” We hear the …

N'Awlins Po Boy, Warren J. Graffeo
N'Awlins Po Boy, Warren J. Graffeo
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Abstract
N’Awlins Po Boy draws heavily on the author’s memories and recollections of growing up in the New Orleans of the 1940s and 1950s, but it is a work of fiction. Although the settings and scenes are rendered as accurately as memory allows, the circumstances, situations and people are entirely fictional. During the immediate post-WWII decade, the city went through a rapid series of changes, some calm and nearly unnoticed, others turbulent and upsetting to the natural order that had prevailed for more than two centuries. This is an account of those changes as they might have been seen through …
Arbeit Macht Frei, Rebecca Basham
Arbeit Macht Frei, Rebecca Basham
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
"Arbeit Macht Frei," which is translated, "Work Will Make You Free," is a surreal drama that sporadically and without regard to traditional chronological order spans the years of 1931-1947 in Nazi Germany. It is many stories of humanity and its strengths and weaknesses, its triumphs and atrocities, melded into theatrical representation as men and women who are interred in a concentration camp unwillingly build the walls that hold them under Nazi oppression. It is also the specific stories of four individual characters. Heinrich is the camp commander whose work is to construct and run the camp. Herta is the German …
