Shadow Garments: Costume Creation For Integrating Alienated Parts Of The Self, Mega M. Galvin
Shadow Garments: Costume Creation For Integrating Alienated Parts Of The Self, Mega M. Galvin
Art Therapy | Master's Theses
This study explores costume creation as a narrative-based intervention for integrating "shadow" parts, or aspects of the self that are repressed or alienated due to shame, trauma, or social pressure. Grounded in Jungian analytic psychology, narrative therapy, and expressive arts theory, the research addresses the limitations of traditional talk therapy in accessing somatic memory and proposes costume making as a pathway for externalization and re-authorship. Using a qualitative, participatory study inspired by Pat B. Allen’s Open Studio Process, four adult participants engaged in a three-session workshop to design, construct, and wear costumes representing their identified shadow aspects. Data was collected …
Arithmetic And Necessity: A Quasi-Concrete Modal Structuralist Account, Benjamin Faltesek
Arithmetic And Necessity: A Quasi-Concrete Modal Structuralist Account, Benjamin Faltesek
Mathematics, Philosophy and Physics (D.Sc.) Dissertations
This dissertation addresses the necessity of arithmetic by distinguishing two tasks that are often run together: the derivation task, which seeks to prove that mathematical truths are necessary, and the characterization task, which asks what kind of necessity arithmetic has and what grounds it. Setting the former aside for now, I focus on the latter, arguing that an adequate explanation of arithmetical necessity requires two sources: logical necessity and the necessary possibility that the right kind of structure exists. The second source makes mathematical modality distinctively mathematical, and the dissertation’s positive contribution emerges chiefly in that area. I survey and …
Caribou Migration And Non-Local Hunting In Northwest Alaska: A Gis Analysis Of Hunting Activity And Its Relationship With Caribou Migration Corridors, Brittney L. Jiménezszabo
Caribou Migration And Non-Local Hunting In Northwest Alaska: A Gis Analysis Of Hunting Activity And Its Relationship With Caribou Migration Corridors, Brittney L. Jiménezszabo
Geography and the Environment: Graduate Student Capstones
Indigenous Alaskans rely on subsistence hunting for food, with Barren-ground caribou making up approximately 27% of their diet. It is believed by subsistence hunters that non-local hunting is forcing a change in caribou migration behavior. This study examined non-local harvesting records from 2013 – 2025 in the northwest and interior Game Management Units (GMU) and Alaksa’s Western Arctic Caribou Herd (WACH) migration range data to answer the question, is there a spatial relationship between non-local harvests and WACH migration behavior. Mixed methods included spatial autocorrelation and local statistics. Findings led to the rejection of the null hypothesis which will help …
The Mechanical Actor: Meyerhold’S Biomechanics And The Birth Of The Analyzable Body, Margaret R. Davisson
The Mechanical Actor: Meyerhold’S Biomechanics And The Birth Of The Analyzable Body, Margaret R. Davisson
Caroliniana Undergraduate Research Journal
This paper analyzes Vsevolod Meyerhold’s system of biomechanics, an actor-training system, as a theatrical framework that participated in the broader cultural consolidation of an analytical conception of human movement also taking place within modern scientific biomechanics. Situating Meyerhold’s work within the industrial and ideological context of early twentieth-century Soviet modernity, the study examines how theatrical training methods operationalized emerging assumptions about the mechanization, decomposition, and optimization of human movement. Through comparative analysis of Meyerholdian performance theory and scientific biomechanics, the paper demonstrates a structural correspondence between theatrical movement segmentation and biomechanical concepts such as kinematics, force distribution, and mechanical equilibrium. …
Maggies, Not Aggies: The Long History Of Opposition To Women At Texas A&M, Kara Alexander Culp
Maggies, Not Aggies: The Long History Of Opposition To Women At Texas A&M, Kara Alexander Culp
Journal of Texas History
Texas A&M University, a former all-male military school and the oldest public college in the state, is widely known for its conservative reputation. Drawing on archival documents and newspapers, this essay traces how the opposition to women at A&M evolved over the course of the school’s existence and examines the role former students played in shaping A&M’s identity. It argues that the school’s masculine reputation was intentionally crafted through constant pushback against official coeducation and an intentional burying of women’s historic involvement in order to create a narrative that was centered around male whiteness.

Monstrous Origins: A Biblical Anthropology Of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein And Bram Stoker's Dracula, Josue Lopez
Monstrous Origins: A Biblical Anthropology Of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein And Bram Stoker's Dracula, Josue Lopez
Masters Theses
In their texts, Stoker and Shelley embody the Christian doctrines of the creation and the incarnation through their monsters, who invert the central tenets of Christianity. Frankenstein’s monster and its relationship to Victor Frankenstein are presented as a maladapted and gross mimicry of God’s creation of man in Genesis. Victor, in his attempt to create life, tries to play God, and his hubristic endeavor unleashes a monstrous being on creation. Likewise, Count Dracula’s vampirism is portrayed as a corruptive reduction of Christ’s incarnation and resurrection. For the regenerative vampiric body, resurrection is not a redemptive act but a curse. The …
Fatherlessness And The Longing For The Father: A Biblical-Theological And Apologetic Account Of Desire, Belonging, And Ecclesial Remedy, Walter Marshall
Fatherlessness And The Longing For The Father: A Biblical-Theological And Apologetic Account Of Desire, Belonging, And Ecclesial Remedy, Walter Marshall
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
This dissertation examines fatherlessness as a sociological, psychological, and theological problem while advancing an abductive apologetic argument that the persistent human longing for paternal presence, identity, security, and belonging is more comprehensively explained by the Christian worldview. Building upon C. S. Lewis’s Argument from Desire, the study develops the Christian Argument from Paternal Longing, employing inference to the best explanation to evaluate whether paternal longing provides meaningful evidence for God’s existence. Through interdisciplinary research integrating sociology, attachment theory, biblical theology, and historical-theological analysis, the dissertation compares Christian explanations with developmental, evolutionary, sociological, and psychological alternatives. Its central finding is that …
North Carolina Human Trafficking: Prevalence In Charlotte, Pamela Renee Farrar
North Carolina Human Trafficking: Prevalence In Charlotte, Pamela Renee Farrar
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Trafficking in persons continues to be a problem in Charlotte, North Carolina in both terms of public safety, human rights, and law enforcement. It is difficult to estimate the prevalence of the phenomenon at the local level as it is often not registered, is underreported and is not consistently recognized in official statistics. This quantitative archival study aimed to determine if poverty rates and transient population size/mobility were significant predictors for the reported prevalence of human trafficking in the City of Charlotte between the years 20202024. The prevalence of human trafficking was measured as the reported human trafficking in public …
Dorothy Thompson And The Rise Of The “Woman Journalist”, Richard David Lucas
Dorothy Thompson And The Rise Of The “Woman Journalist”, Richard David Lucas
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
"Dorothy Thompson and the Rise of the 'Woman Journalist'" reexamines the career of journalist Dorothy Thompson (1893–1961), focusing on the events of July–August 1934 that transformed her from a foreign correspondent into an international symbol of resistance to Nazism. Tracing her evolution from suffrage activist and expatriate reporter to the first American woman to write a nationally syndicated column for a major U.S. daily and prominent interventionist radio commentator, the study situates Thompson within the history of women in journalism and interwar European politics. Combining newly accessible Bundesarchiv records with the Dorothy Thompson Papers at Syracuse University, contemporary press coverage, …

It Takes A Village -- An Homage To Florida's Ecosystems And Biodiversity, Noah R. Bastien
PANDION: The Osprey Journal of Research and Ideas
It Takes a Village is a drawing highlighting the biodiversity of Florida's native wildlife. The included species encompass plants, animals and fungi found in Floridian ecosystems. The swamp panel is an homage to the Florida Highwaymen, and several of the chosen species hold personal symbolism to my upbringing in central Florida and time spent with my grandparents on the Indian River in Brevard County. The species depicted in the drawing are as follows (from left to right, top to bottom): the grey triggerfish (Balistes capriscus), Florida mangroves (Rhizophora mangle), tropical water-clover (Marsilea ancylopoda), Florida …
Swallowtail Plant And Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail, Lillian G. Witherspoon
Swallowtail Plant And Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail, Lillian G. Witherspoon
PANDION: The Osprey Journal of Research and Ideas
This mixed-media, artistic representation displaying both the Swallowtail Plant and the Appalachian Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly visualizes the shared similarities in both pattern and shape. Christia obcordata, commonly known as the Swallowtail Plant or Butterfly Plant, gets its name from its wing-shaped foliage and burgundy stripes that resemble the swallowtail butterfly.
Sea Urchin, Lilli Hendra
Sea Urchin, Lilli Hendra
PANDION: The Osprey Journal of Research and Ideas
Sea urchins are echinoderms that live in the ocean and can be found in most climates. The support structure that encloses the internal organs in sea urchins is called a test, which is an endoskeleton composed of calcium carbonate and has five-fold radial symmetry. On the shell there are ambulacral plates that have small pores for the tube feet of the sea urchin. The raised bumps along the shell that help with joint movement are called tubercles. The oral and aboral views of the test are shown in the artwork. This piece is composed of individual dots that make up …
The Worm In The Garden: William Blake’S “The Sick Rose,” Allen Ginsberg’S “Sunflower Sutra,” And The Literary Origins Of Environmental Consciousness, Erin Blake
PANDION: The Osprey Journal of Research and Ideas
This paper contends that William Blake’s “The Sick Rose” written in 1794 and Allen Ginsberg’s “Sunflower Sutra”, written in 1955, constitute the two most significant poems in a continuous tradition of literary environmentalism stretching from the first Industrial Revolution to the organized ecological movements of the post-war twentieth century. Reading Blake through an eco-critical lens, the paper demonstrates that the poem’s symbolic architecture infers a systemic critique of industrial capitalism’s assault on the living world, anticipating by more than a century the conceptual vocabulary of modern environmental thought. The paper then traces how Ginsberg, whose formative encounter with Blake’s voice …
Femininitas Dalam Tubuh Maskulin Penari Lengger Banyumas Sebagai Inspirasi Penciptaan Batik Mixed Media, Aqilla Wisnu Amartya, Ponimin Ponimin
Femininitas Dalam Tubuh Maskulin Penari Lengger Banyumas Sebagai Inspirasi Penciptaan Batik Mixed Media, Aqilla Wisnu Amartya, Ponimin Ponimin
Journal of Language, Literature, and Arts
Lengger Lanang, a traditional performing art from Banyumas, Indonesia, is characterized by the interplay of masculinity and femininity expressed through male dancers. This phenomenon inspired the creation of mixed-media batik artworks using a biomorphic art approach, with butterfly metamorphosis as a visual metaphor. This study aims to conceptualize feminine expression within the masculine bodies of Lengger Lanang dancers as an artistic foundation, describe the creative process, and analyze the visual elements and symbolic meanings of the artworks. The study adopts Alma Hawkins’ three-stage creative model: exploration, improvisation, and formation. The creative process involved cultural observation, sketch development, material experimentation, and …

Codee Expects That Every Mathematician Will Do Their Odes: From The Battle Of Trafalgar To Calculus (Or Nelson To Newton), Steven Miller
Codee Expects That Every Mathematician Will Do Their Odes: From The Battle Of Trafalgar To Calculus (Or Nelson To Newton), Steven Miller
CODEE Journal
Using the historical Battle of Trafalgar as a case study, we introduce students to mathematical modeling to describe and explore real-world systems. Starting with the question—how do force sizes and combat effectiveness determine which side wins?—we show how to use a blend of mathematics and computational tools to investigate the answer. Beginning by defining a simple differential equation model for combat dynamics, we analyze its behavior using differential equations and accessible algebraic techniques. We show how computational methods and simulations can support systematic, visual exploration and suggest conjectures that mathematical analysis can then establish. This material could serve as the …
A Philosophical Introduction To Elements And Relations: Aspects Of A Scientific Metaphysics, Martin Zwick
A Philosophical Introduction To Elements And Relations: Aspects Of A Scientific Metaphysics, Martin Zwick
Complex Systems Faculty Publications and Presentations
My book, Elements and Relations*, amplifies Bunge’s characterization of the systems project as the construction an “exact and scientific metaphysics” (ESM) different from and broader than the reductionist and physicalist ontology of conventional science. This paper discusses the scientific theories constituting this project and the central notion of “system” as a structure-function dyad, where “structure” is the system’s internal order and “function” is its participation in the external order of its environment. The paper also discusses the book’s proposal of ontology and ethics as a structure-function dyad for the systems field, an ontology of problems that exemplifies the ESM idea.

In the Anthropocene era, where modern humans play a role in environmental destruction, it is essential to introduce new perspectives on these issues. This article seeks to demonstrate that interventions in the clean water crisis can be understood through the lens of archaeology. Although most Indonesians perceive archaeology as a discipline focused on the past and seldom relevant to contemporary problems, this article argues archaeology offers meaningful contributions to environmental concerns. Using literature from contemporary archaeology and employs gender theory in material culture studies to interpret water pollution as a material trace of the Anthropocene, impacting the sustainability of cultural …

“And Why Here?” Reading Hong Kong In Nick Joaquin’S The Woman Who Had Two Navels, Raymon D. Ritumban
“And Why Here?” Reading Hong Kong In Nick Joaquin’S The Woman Who Had Two Navels, Raymon D. Ritumban
Akda: The Asian Journal of Literature, Culture, Performance
Nick Joaquin (1917–2004) is a Filipino literary master and national artist whose numerous works include the prize-winning novel The Woman Who Had Two Navels (1961). Its plot revolves around the Manilan protagonist Connie Escobar’s flight into Hong Kong and her insistence that “she [has] two navels” (1). Her assertion is complicated by her request for Hong Kong-born-and-based Pepe Monson to perform “an operation” on them (1). While this curious premise has generated numerous analyses over time, the novel’s setting—that is, post-1945 Hong Kong—remains understudied. Addressing this gap, the paper offers a geocritical intervention examining the historical conditions and spatial production …

The Role Of Tribal And Dalit Women In Water Conservation: A Case Study Of The Western Indian Trans-Himalayan Region, Vivek Kumar, Anuradha Choudhary
Journal of International Women's Studies
Water scarcity and environmental degradation are pressing contemporary issues, and the Himalayan regions are especially at risk. The Trans-Himalayas in particular face severe resource scarcity as water availability is totally dependent on the now dwindling supply of glacial meltwater. Women in the Spiti Valley in the Trans-Himalayan region are particularly exposed to these issues because they spend significant time collecting water and fodder for domestic animals and managing agricultural irrigation. As the primary caregivers and managers of households, women in this region face greater challenges in adapting to and mitigating resource scarcity. This study focuses on the role of Dalit …
Twitter’S Role In Challenging The Marginalisation And Subjugation Of Women In Northern Nigeria, Tioluwalogo Olakunbi-Black
Twitter’S Role In Challenging The Marginalisation And Subjugation Of Women In Northern Nigeria, Tioluwalogo Olakunbi-Black
Journal of International Women's Studies
This paper aims to examine social media’s role in advocating against the marginalisation and domination of women in Northern Nigeria with a focus on Twitter (X). This study analyses women’s strategies of digital advocacy drawing on feminist theory, specifically difference feminism, intersectional feminism, and post-structuralist feminism, alongside theories of technological determinism. Difference feminism argues that women possess distinctive qualities, experiences, and perspectives that differentiate them from men, and that these differences can be a source of strength rather than a basis for disadvantage. Intersectional feminism foregrounds intersecting identities such as race, class, ethnicity, and sexuality, emphasising the multiplicity of women’s …
Brown Women, Cyberspace, And The Scopophilic Male Gaze In Hari Kunzru’S Transmission, Ayesha Perveen
Brown Women, Cyberspace, And The Scopophilic Male Gaze In Hari Kunzru’S Transmission, Ayesha Perveen
Journal of International Women's Studies
This study draws upon gaze theory to explore the cinema-cyberspace-gender nexus presented in British Indian writer Hari Kunzru’s novel Transmission (2005). While Arjun Mehta is widely considered the protagonist of the novel, I focus instead on the representation of the character Leela Zahir both as an individual and as a virus. Although the virus unleashed by Arjun is the novel’s main source of cyberterrorism, I analyze cyberterrorism in terms of the cyberspace representation of women as scopophilic objects for the male gaze. For this purpose, I discuss the mindset behind the use of the “she” pronoun for the virus as …
