Inviting Submission: Isabella Beeton At The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine, 1856-1865, Julie Megan Sorge Way 2024 Old Dominion University

Inviting Submission: Isabella Beeton At The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine, 1856-1865, Julie Megan Sorge Way

English Theses & Dissertations

Isabella Beeton, creator of the iconic domestic manual Beeton’s Book of Household Management, died suddenly in 1865, just before her twenty-ninth birthday. Her popular book survived to codify stereotypical Victorian female ideals. Yet the “Mrs Beeton” mythos camouflages a remarkable talent: far from domestic drudgery, Beeton maintained a vibrant career as a writer and editor at the Englishwoman’s Domestic Magazine (EDM), traveling widely to research the latest fashions and laboring behind the scenes to ensure the magazine’s success. Closely examining Beeton’s EDM work demonstrates how these formative, productive years shaped her later, more popular writing. Such a …

Bridging The Divide: Improving Digital Humanities Pedagogy By Networking Higher Education And Secondary Education Faculty In St. Louis, Geremy Carnes, Margaret K. Smith

Faculty Scholarship

In 2021, faculty at Lindenwood University and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) led the formation of a Saint Louis Digital Humanities (STL DH) Network of faculty and scholars at area universities, schools, and cultural institutions.1 The Lindenwood and SIUE campuses bookend the St. Louis metro area, a region whose strong geospatial presence offers fruitful opportunities for digital humanities (DH) education but which also suffers from long, deeply ingrained economic and racial segregation. While other regional DH networks exist, the STL DH Network is unique in taking undergraduate education and secondary education— and particularly equitable access to education—as its chief focus. …

The aim of this research is to find out how the communication patterns of online game players use communication features to help win the game. Valorant is an online game that provides communication features in it. This …


Science Fiction: From Silly To Surreal, Rowel Jimenez 2024 Syracuse University

Science Fiction: From Silly To Surreal, Rowel Jimenez

SOURCE Explore Program

Science Fiction: From Silly to Surreal is a presentation outlining the evolution of science fiction from the 1930s to the modern day. The progress of the genre is shown through an analysis of old movies and TV shows from WWII America, demonstrating how science fiction was seen as a genre for children. During the 1950s and 1960s, the library's archives attracted significant research interest. In the 1950s and 1960s, the majority of the research concerning the library's archives came in the form of articles. These articles were produced by Mercury Press Records, which then made The Magazine of Fantasy & …


Linda Troeller Papers, Miral Ali 2024 Syracuse University

Linda Troeller Papers, Miral Ali

SOURCE Explore Program

This project was born through a genuine interest in Linda Troeller and her work after I learned about her through the archives. Troeller’s art is a direct reflection of her inner state and my exploration was focused on her motivations. What prompted her to create such a raw, unfiltered, untarnished collection of the human condition, and how did she do it?


Oneida Community Collection: Through The Lens Of A Murder Trial, Franny Porreca 2024 Syracuse University

Oneida Community Collection: Through The Lens Of A Murder Trial, Franny Porreca

SOURCE Explore Program

For my SOURCE Explore project with SCRC, I looked at their collection on the Oneida Community. More specifically, I sifted through some community progress reports that documented various happenings that were important to them from 1848 through 1874. From there, I narrowed my scope and one individual who was formally a member of the Oneida, Charles Guiteau. He was responsible for shooting President Andrew Garfield, and the second half of my presentation was focused on the Supreme Court transcriptions from his trial.


A Menu And Its Implications On Filipino And American Culture, Caitlyn Begosa 2024 Syracuse University

A Menu And Its Implications On Filipino And American Culture, Caitlyn Begosa

SOURCE Explore Program

I analyzed a collection of menus collected from around 1950s to 1960s from the Kay Shaw Nelson Papers. I decided to focus my research around a menu from the Philippines. From here, I analyzed the graphic design and word choice of the menu to come to the conclusion that it was targeted towards an American or English-speaking tourist audience. Then, I researched the history of food tourism in the Philippines and how it helped flourish the country’s economy. Although the Filipino menu from Nelson’s collection inspired the brunt of my studies, I also noticed the small amount of Asian menus …


Exploration Of Silhouettes: 1960s Through 2010s, Annabelle Reichelt 2024 Syracuse University

Exploration Of Silhouettes: 1960s Through 2010s, Annabelle Reichelt

SOURCE Explore Program

I did my research project on fashion and trends and observed how they change over time. I know from previous knowledge that trends come in cycles, so I used this knowledge to choose other time periods that would have similar trends. The collection of photos I looked at from the archive is from the 1960s and shows a runway show for a charity event. Since this is from the 1960s, I looked at Vogue Runway, which is an archive website that has many high fashion shows going back to the 80s, to collect photos from shows from the 90s and …


Shutendooji Emaki Pagoda, Phoebe Feng 2024 Syracuse University

Shutendooji Emaki Pagoda, Phoebe Feng

SOURCE Explore Program

I researched the Shutendooji Emaki and the Pagoda. For the Emaki, I further interpreted its artistic value and cultural traditions based on its existing documents. For the Pagoda, since there is no document left, and its root was nowhere to be found, I compared it with other ancient Chinese and Japanese artworks and architecture, successfully found an identical one on a Chinese auction website, and identified its origin. It dates back to 770 and is extremely valuable since it is the earliest example of woodblock printing. Finally, I put the two artifacts together and researched the development of the Japanese …


Syracuse And Basketball: A Love Story, Shane Holcombe 2024 Syracuse University

Syracuse And Basketball: A Love Story, Shane Holcombe

SOURCE Explore Program

I would sum up this project as one that challenged me as a student to take a deeper dive into hands on material that depicted Syracuse Athletics' history. I enjoyed that hands on experience and appreciated the opportunity to look at some materials I would not have been able to look at if it hadn't been for the SOURCE Explore program.


Thomas Szasz: Anti-Psychiatry, Leila Liang 2024 Syracuse University

Thomas Szasz: Anti-Psychiatry, Leila Liang

SOURCE Explore Program

My time with the SOURCE Explore Program has truly been an incredible experience. I presented on a topic completely different from what I initially planned- only because I read a couple lines from his manuscript! Examining pieces of the past compelled me connect what was written more than 50 years ago to public opinions of the present. Is the "Szaszian" view now obsolete? What was his impact on society? Was he a good person? I aimed to answer these questions through my research.


A Case Study Of An Atypical Perspective On The First World War, Patrick Riley 2024 Syracuse University

A Case Study Of An Atypical Perspective On The First World War, Patrick Riley

SOURCE Explore Program

I came into the source with the big topic of the Treaty of Versailles. I eventually found an article that presented a perspective advocating for the winners to be careful in how harshly they punish Germany after their victory. I decided to switch the focus of my presentation to solely understanding this article. Early on, I found that his opinion was very unusual, so I invested in the usual opinion from the time period. I then spent some time understanding the meaning of the article and explaining why it was controversial for the time. Lastly, I looked at my research …


Research Methods Used In The Rodney Gilbert Papers And The Chen Chi Papers (1940-1960), Alyssa Tran 2024 Syracuse University

Research Methods Used In The Rodney Gilbert Papers And The Chen Chi Papers (1940-1960), Alyssa Tran

SOURCE Explore Program

Working with the SOURCE Explore program I was able to work with the Rodney Gilbert and Chen Chi Papers. Both of which are different in nature but aim to contrast the Asian American Experience of those already in America versus those who are from mainland China aiming to pursue higher education in the United States. By studying respected artwork from Chen Chi and analyzing the recommendation letters from Rodney Gilbert I was able to see how Americans viewed foreigners during the periods 1940-1960. I was also able to understand the history of the world at this time and it has …
