Review Of: Warrior Ascetics And Indian Empires By William R. Pinch, David Curley
Review Of: Warrior Ascetics And Indian Empires By William R. Pinch, David Curley
Global Humanities and Religion
William Pinch's ambitious book traces ascetic warriors-companies (akharas) of men and their retinues who variously called themselves sanyasis, gosains, bairagis, fakirs and (especially) nagas - from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the Nehru era. He suggests first, a process of expansion and institutionalization during the seventeenth century under Mughal rule; second, a peak of influence in the eighteenth century when armed ascetics were employed as inexpensive and well-armed infantry and cavalry soldiers; and third, an incomplete domestication of militant ascetics under the suspicious vigilance of British rule and with redefinitions of "proper" Hindu …
The Nature Of ‘Reporter Voice' In A Vietnamese Hard News Story, V. T. H. Tran, Elizabeth Thomson
The Nature Of ‘Reporter Voice' In A Vietnamese Hard News Story, V. T. H. Tran, Elizabeth Thomson
Faculty of Arts - Papers (Archive)
This chapter investigates the attitude of the reporter in an article about Iraq war published in a newspaper in Vietnam, the Nhan Dan Daily. Appraisal theory, especially attitude and engagement, is used as the tools of analysis to explore the reporter’s opinions and ideological positioning expressed in the article. The analysis reveals the reporter’s negative attitude towards US government as well as the strategies used to engage other parties in support of the reporter’s point of view.

Faculty of Arts - Papers (Archive)
This paper proposes the PhD project A linguistic study on social attitudes towards the quality of postgraduate education in Vietnam. The study uses Appraisal theory as the framework to analyse interviews with different stakeholders involved in the postgraduate education sector, namely bureaucrats, management, academics and students. The study aims to find out:
- What the stakeholders’ perceived quality issues in relation to MA and PhD education in Vietnam are
- Who the stakeholders’ believe to bear the responsibility for the quality issues.
Taking into account the facts that the quality of postgraduate education in Vietnam is in question and the fact that …

Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Faculty Publications
This essay examines the performance and video art piece Cosmic Blood, by Gigi Otalvaro-Hormillosa, a queer Colombian and Filipina American artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. It argues that Cosmic Blood is a performative intervention into dominant modes of reading the racialized and gendered Filipina body, as well as a critique of absolutist notions of national and ethnic belonging. Cosmic Blood challenges the inherent heteronormativity and masculinism of dominant notions of nation and kinship, accomplishing this imaginative intervention by its retroping of the past through a lens of queer desire. Within Otalvaro-Hormillosa’s retelling of the moment of first …
Pond-Women Revelations: The Subaltern Registers In Maithil Women's Expressive Forms, Coralynn V. Davis
Pond-Women Revelations: The Subaltern Registers In Maithil Women's Expressive Forms, Coralynn V. Davis
Faculty Journal Articles
Ponds are ubiquitous in the Maithil region of Nepal, and they figure prominently in folk narratives and ceremonial paintings produced by women there. I argue that in Maithil women's folktales, as in their paintings, the trope of ponds shifts the imaginative register toward women's perspectives and the importance of women's knowledge and influence in shaping Maithil society, even as this register shift occurs within plots featuring male protagonists. I argue further that in the absence of a habit of exegesis in their expressive arts, and given the cross-referential, dialogic nature of expressive practices, a methodology that draws into interpretive conversation …
