Cim221 Rainbow Tree: Example 6, Lily Hackett, Dillon Hudson, Kaden Matchett, Rees Muthee

Exemplars

For our project, our group was presented with the 89% project. The 89% project focuses on the 89% of people who want to make a change for our climate, but simply don't commit, essentially getting the route for climate change reduction nowhere.

We chose Behavioural Sciences as our theoretical lens. This means we would be putting time into researching exactly who our audience is, and what attitudes and reactions they hold in regards to climate change. We needed to figure out a way to inform the 89% of this issue, and convince them to join us in improving the way …

“Some Rise, Some Fall, Some Climb”: Three Ways Of Looking At Robert Hunter’S The Giant’S Harp, Janet Brennan Croft, David L. Emerson

Journal of Tolkien Research

In this presentation we explore the world of the late Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter’s unpublished novel The Giant’s Harp. We will bring some of the tools we use in fantasy literature criticism and Tolkien studies to bear on this intriguing but sometimes problematic work. First, we want to look at the deep world-building behind the novel and related song cycles: does it create what in fantasy studies we call a legendarium, like the world J.R.R. Tolkien built? Second, how does it stack up as a mythology? What do we see when looking at it through the lenses of …

‘But I’Ll Get Back On My Feet Some Day’: Hopeful Losers In Grateful Dead Lyrics, David L. Emerson, Janet Brennan Croft

Journal of Tolkien Research

Many songs in the Grateful Dead repertoire, particularly those written by Robert Hunter but also those by other lyricists, feature “loser” characters: characters who fail, in ways mundane or spectacular, usually while simultaneously deluding themselves about their chances of success. In this presentation we examine several of these characters and their stories, applying Tolkienian terminology and concepts like ofermod, “Northern courage,” trust in providence, and eucatastrophe. We’ll compare our hopeful losers with Tolkien’s characters, who hold on to hope in the bleakest of circumstances, yet temper all hopes by acknowledging that living in the physical world is “fighting the …
