Shared Landscapes, Contested Borders: Locating Disciplinarity In An Ma Program Revision, Whitney Douglas, Heidi Estrem, Kelly Myers, Dawn Shepherd
English Literature Faculty Publications and Presentations
It is not unusual to consider a discipline spatially as a "space defined or touched by a particular characteristic or force" (Wardle and Downs, this collection, emphasis added).

Religious Studies Faculty Publications
This essay argues that the approach to meaning articulated by Donald Davidson supplies all the student of religion needs to know about this subject. By focusing on interpretation as understood by Davidson, we can understand, for example, the beliefs and practices of a people such as the Dogon of Mali. By adding to this the evidence of ethnography and history, students of religion can give a compelling account of change and adjudicate between competing analyses.
