Critique [Of From The Ground Up: Multiethnic Literature In The Humanities Curriculum By Margaret Bedrosian], Gloria Eive Jan 1987

Critique [Of From The Ground Up: Multiethnic Literature In The Humanities Curriculum By Margaret Bedrosian], Gloria Eive

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Studies of multi-ethnic literature of the U.S., proposed in "From the Ground Up ..." should be, if they are not already, accepted fields of study in colleges, universities and secondary schools. One would hope that by now, the unique perspective offered by multi-ethnic studies would be appreciated for the insight it offers in understanding the many elements which have created our heritage, history and contemporary "American Society" -- and, by extension, global society as well. One would expect that multi-ethnic studies are, or will soon be requisite in "standard" humanities curricula for the same reasons that courses such as geography, …

From The Ground Up: Multiethnic Literature In The Humanities Curriculum, Margaret Bedrosian

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Spiritual dismemberment, which many associate with the plight of disinherited Native Americans, has dislocated millions of others in this country as well. Teaching multi-ethnic literature, I note in particular streams of students who like the narrator of Oritz's poem are lonely for an authentic connection to a personal history. Throughout the term, they read selections which extol or dramatize the palpable struggles of characters who have a strong bond with ethnic traditions. They attend class surrounded by identifiable, certifiable ethnics. They listen to the instructor hold forth on the apocalyptic possibilities open to any who have access to these worldviews. …


[Review Of] Hugh A. Dempsey. Big Bear: The End Of Freedom, Robert Gish Jan 1987

[Review Of] Hugh A. Dempsey. Big Bear: The End Of Freedom, Robert Gish

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

The more one reads contemporary Native American writing, the more one realizes certain overreaching universal themes: namely, that the Native American past lives on, and strongly so, in the soul and consciousness of descendants; and, regardless of tribal affiliation or homeland, the nineteenth-century cultural collision with whites lingers in all such rememberings of the past and in all accounting of the present. These themes transcend the boundaries of history and fiction, prose and poetry, and offer solace to Indian and non-Indian alike.

Saudi Arabia’S And Egypt’S Public And School Libraries, Donna Marie Hoeksema Jan 1987

Saudi Arabia’S And Egypt’S Public And School Libraries, Donna Marie Hoeksema

Graduate Research Papers

This research was based on a concern for libraries in third world countries. A study of literature about public and school libraries in two developing countries in the Middle East was conducted. Based on the evidence that certain conditions were present in the United States and Europe before library development began, this researcher isolated eight of these conditions to research whether they were in existence or growing in Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

Two hypotheses were-tested. First, political stability was evident. Secondly, evidence of growth in the following seven conditions were studied: education, economic growth, government commitment towards libraries, urbanization, presence …

'Asking Directions’ And Pedestrian Wayfinding, Michael R. Hill Jan 1987

'Asking Directions’ And Pedestrian Wayfinding, Michael R. Hill

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

This paper reports a study of the social ecology and systemic aspects of "asking for directions" in an urban area. Interviews were conducted with 100 randomly selected pedestrians at spatially stratified locations representing a variety of urban environments in Lincoln, Nebraska. The interviewer, posing as a "lost" pedestrian, asked respondents to give directions to local landmarks and then unobtrusively recorded their responses on a concealed tape recorder. Respondents generally provided accurate, distance-conserving directions with low levels of spatial complexity. Responses were friendly and often tailored to the unique environmental attributes characterizing each location. An outline of the process whereby a …


The Sociology And Experiences Of Pedestrians, Michael R. Hill Jan 1987

The Sociology And Experiences Of Pedestrians, Michael R. Hill

Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications

This paper introduces the sociological and experiential studies included in this special issue of Man-Environment Systems. Sociological and experiential perspectives and their interconnections are briefly explored. A sociology of sociology perspective is adopted and argues that architects, planners, engineers and other managers of vested, status guo interests fail to systematically incorporate the burgeoning social scientific work on pedestrianism due to the inherent and unavoidable political character of walking.

The Vanguard (Vol. 33, No. 6), Sep-Oct 1986, Lutheran Human Relations Association Of America

The Vanguard

When Rev. Brian (Red) Burchfield went to South Africa, he believed he and his co-pastor/wife Susan were missionaries to that racially-divided nation. Now, however, he understands that he was meant all along to be a missionary to the U.S.

Arriving in Cape Town last January to serve several, small congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in South Africa (ELCSA), Burchfield said they were met with two responses: "a warm and gracious reception and ... an attitude that took for granted that we would be going back to the United States and beginning our real work."
