Variables Related To Sexual Aggression In Male College Students., Laura Anne Estupinan-Kane
Variables Related To Sexual Aggression In Male College Students., Laura Anne Estupinan-Kane
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Using the Pathfinder computer algorithm comparisons were made of participants' knowledge organization of sexual, sexually aggressive, and aggressive concepts. Three hundred and fifty-two heterosexual males (81 admitting a past history and future likelihood of sexual aggressive/coercive behavior; 111 admitting a past history of engaging in sexual aggression; 88 admitting no past history of or future likelihood of engaging in sexual aggression) rated all possible pairwise combinations of 18 words relevant to sex, aggression, sexual aggression, and emotion. Analyses of the dependent variable, number of links, failed to support predicted differences as a function of level of sexual aggression in the …
Wake Rites: The Ancient Irish Rituals Of "Finnegans Wake"., George Cinclair Gibson
Wake Rites: The Ancient Irish Rituals Of "Finnegans Wake"., George Cinclair Gibson
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The complex of rites, rituals, and mythic reenactments known in Irish mythology as the Rites of Tara provides an interpretive model for James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Using information and theories pertaining to the Rites of Tara obtained from sources used by James Joyce, a comparison of the Rites of Tara with Finnegans Wake reveals important correlates related to chronology, characters, architectonics, themes, and defining characteristics. The three separate chronological events presented by Wakean scholars as possible dates for the events in the Wake---Easter, an unnamed pagan festival, and the Vernal Equinox---converged on a single day at the Rites of Tara. …
An Introduction To Jacques Leguerney's Settings Of The Poetry Of Pierre De Ronsard., Carol Fuqua Lines
An Introduction To Jacques Leguerney's Settings Of The Poetry Of Pierre De Ronsard., Carol Fuqua Lines
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Jacques Leguerney, French composer who lived from 1906--1997, is at last gaining a much-deserved place in the history of the French melodie. Primarily a composer of melodie, Leguerney was strongly drawn to the poetry of the French Renaissance, with more than one-third of his songs utilizing the poetry of members of the French Renaissance School known as La Pleiade, founded by poet Pierre de Ronsard. Ronsard's poetry is found in the majority of Leguerney's Pleiade settings, of which ten are presented in this study. The ten selections are: Je vous envoie, Genievres Herisses, Je me lamente, Bel aubepin, Si mille …

Luciano Berio's Music Theatre: Az/One Musicale, Claudine Canzonire Simonson
Luciano Berio's Music Theatre: Az/One Musicale, Claudine Canzonire Simonson
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Luciano Berio refers to his large-scale works for music theatre not as operas, but as azioni musicali, or musical actions. Berio was able to develop the idea that a large-scale work for music theatre should follow an episodic narrative and allow the music to direct the action of the dramaturgy because of the following influences: his collaborations with Cathy Berberian, Edoardo Sanguineti, Umberto Eco, and Italo Calvino; Brecht's epic theatre; Wagner's music drama; and electronic music. Berio was able to successfully realize his musical action concept with Un re in ascolto, or The King Listens (1984), his first …

Cold Harbor Syndrome: Balanced, Compelling Study' Examines Grant's Overland Miscalculations, Gary W. Gallagher
Civil War Book Review
Ulysses S. Grant's offensive against Robert E. Lee's entrenched Army of Northern Virginia at Cold Harbor on June 3, 1864, summons powerful images. Northern assaults that day stand alongside Ambrose E. Burnside's attacks at Fredericksburg and John Bell Hood's at Franklin as examples of seemingly poin....

Dna Alkylation And Its Repair In Small Fish Species., Thomas James Vicek
Dna Alkylation And Its Repair In Small Fish Species., Thomas James Vicek
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Mechanisms of DNA alkylation and repair were investigated in 3 small fish species. Following aqueous exposure to either N-methyl- N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or ethyl methanesulfonate, the hepatic DNA from the western mosquitofish, Gambusia affinis, was analyzed for alkyl-DNA adducts via high performance liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. Although potential tissue detection limits ranged from 14--101 fmoles of alkyl adducts/mg tissue, no alkyl-DNA adducts were detected in the exposed tissues. To assess the potential repair of alkyl-DNA adducts in 2 other small fish species, alkyltransferase activities within hepatic protein extracts of the Gulf killifish, Fundulus grandis, and Gambusia affinis were determined using …
The Power Of Ethnicity: The Preservation Of Scots -Irish Culture In The Eighteenth-Century American Backcountry., Kevin Lee Yeager
The Power Of Ethnicity: The Preservation Of Scots -Irish Culture In The Eighteenth-Century American Backcountry., Kevin Lee Yeager
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The character of the Scots-Irish has been shrouded in myth almost from the moment the first Ulster immigrants disembarked at Philadelphia in the 1710s. Contemporaries condemned the Scots-Irish as lazy, illiterate, uncouth, and violent. Later hagiographers, however, praised them as ruggedly individualistic, liberty-loving people who brought civilization to the American wilderness. Recent historians have done little to advance this debate. While re-stating these simplistic stereotypes, modern scholars have failed to ground their arguments in extensive analyses of primary sources. While numerous monographs studying other ethnic and cultural groups in colonial America have appeared over the last thirty years, none as …
Rights Of Passage: A Cross -Cultural Study Of Maroon Novels By Black Women., Randi Gray Kristensen
Rights Of Passage: A Cross -Cultural Study Of Maroon Novels By Black Women., Randi Gray Kristensen
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
This study investigates the use and implications of the trope of marronage, the African-American practice of self-emancipation to forge alternative New World communities, in selected novels by Black women writers of North America and the Anglophone and Francophone Caribbean. It draws on theories of liminality to posit a theory of liberatory practice that deconstructs hegemonic narratives, both personal and historical. Postmodern approaches are deferred in favor of locating these texts and their concerns as deriving from the epistemological consequences of modernity. Cross-cultural Black women's texts were chosen to illuminate the recognition of shared subjugations across national and linguistic borders, as …
Reformers In The Marketplace Of Ideas: Student Activism And American Democracy In Cold War Los Angeles., Kurt Edward Kemper
Reformers In The Marketplace Of Ideas: Student Activism And American Democracy In Cold War Los Angeles., Kurt Edward Kemper
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Contemporary opinion and much scholarship frequently interprets student activists from the 1960s and 1970s as radical critics of both American society and foreign policy, seeking revolutionary changes in both and caring little of the consequences to the existing order. In fact, conservative forces and values based on democratic capitalism drove student activism of the period. Students' core values of equality of opportunity, equality of and before the law, and faith in the democratic process motivated their activism not just towards civil rights and the war in Vietnam, but also towards issues of student funding and institutions, indicating that self-interest served …
Crystal Structures Of Various Organic Materials And A Statistical Analysis Of Single Crystal X -Ray Diffraction Data From Potassium -Doped Barium Plumbate., Jerome Gerard May
Crystal Structures Of Various Organic Materials And A Statistical Analysis Of Single Crystal X -Ray Diffraction Data From Potassium -Doped Barium Plumbate., Jerome Gerard May
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
A general explanation of the collection and reduction of crystallographic data is presented. This is followed by a brief explanation of routine crystal structure solution and refinement. The results of five routine organic structure solutions are included. A discussion of the perovskite structure aristotype is followed by an elaboration of four common distortions to the aristotype that result in perovskite hettotypes. A crystal structure for barium bismuthate is analyzed to explain its occurrence as a perovskite aristotype. A literature review of powder and neutron diffraction structures reported for barium plumbate included a wide variety of perovskite hettotypes and one aristotype. …
Activation And Metabolism Of P-Nitrosophenoland 2,2'-Thiobis-Ethanol By Horse Liver And Human Alcohol Dehydrogenase: Toxicological Implications., Billy Fred Dudley Jr
Activation And Metabolism Of P-Nitrosophenoland 2,2'-Thiobis-Ethanol By Horse Liver And Human Alcohol Dehydrogenase: Toxicological Implications., Billy Fred Dudley Jr
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
C-nitroso compounds are reactive intermediates in the toxic sequelae of nitroarene metabolism. Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) contributes significantly to NADH-dependent C-nitroso reduction by cytosol relative to NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase (NQOR). NADPH-dependent pNSP reduction by liver cytosol of ADH+ animals is mostly dicumarol-sensitive which implicates NQOR as the major NADPH-dependent activity. Although, extensive structural homology between horse and different isozymes of human ADH exist, significant differences occur within the active site, which account for great variability among substrate specificities, kinetic constants, and response to inhibitors. We have studied the metabolic activity of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (HLADH), purified class I alphaalpha, beta …
Ships, Souls, And The Administration Of The Knights Of St. John In The Fourteenth Century., Mark S. Dupuy
Ships, Souls, And The Administration Of The Knights Of St. John In The Fourteenth Century., Mark S. Dupuy
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
For a variety of reasons, the history of crusading in the later middle ages (after c. 1300) has, until recently, been a topic largely ignored by historians. Acre, the last Christian outpost in Palestine, fell in 1291, and within twenty years, one of the major corporations associated with the crusading movement, the Knights Templar, came under attack and were ultimately suppressed as a religious order. With the lack of attention to the crusade in the later middle ages came a lack of attention to the 'crusading orders;' few historians chose to make either topic a focus of study, and many …
