Stopping The Flood Of Denglish: The Difficult Dilemma Faced By German Language Organizations In Modern-Day Germany, Julianne Kay Lofton
Stopping The Flood Of Denglish: The Difficult Dilemma Faced By German Language Organizations In Modern-Day Germany, Julianne Kay Lofton
Honors Theses
In this study I examined the reactions of official and independent German language organizations to the influx of Denglish, which is a hybrid mix of German and English, and Anglicisms. The independent language organizations tend to be more open in opposing these linguistic influences, and often want strict language protection laws like those in France and Poland. I hypothesized that Germany’s Nazi past has led to a general lack of patriotism and nationalism in Germany, which has affected their language policy and allowed Germany to be overrun by Denglish and Anglicized words and phrases. Germany is experiencing a renewal of …
Soviet Language Policy In Uzbekistan: How The Role Of Russian Has Changed Through Soviet Times And Independence, Mary Catherine Boehmer
Soviet Language Policy In Uzbekistan: How The Role Of Russian Has Changed Through Soviet Times And Independence, Mary Catherine Boehmer
Honors Theses
This thesis examines the progression of Soviet language policy in Uzbekistan and its effects. It also examines how the perception of Russian has changed in post-Soviet Uzbekistan and Uzbeks now view their own language as a direct result of language policy. I based my research on the research of others and the interview of a former Peace Corps volunteer who lived in both Tashkent and Andijon for a total period of two years. Through my investigation, I discovered how the Central Asian languages were formed on the basis of language, how Soviet leaders used both Russian and ethnic languages to …
Motivating Genocide: Indirect Colonial Rule As A Motivator Of Genocidal Ideology And Policy, Trevor Bruce Rockstad
Motivating Genocide: Indirect Colonial Rule As A Motivator Of Genocidal Ideology And Policy, Trevor Bruce Rockstad
Honors Theses
In this study I have explored indirect colonial rule as a motivation of genocide. I use case studies of the 1994 Rwandan and 1975 Cambodian genocides to illustrate the way that indirect colonially rule divided societies, creating colonially relegated and colonially elevated sections of society. Genocide becomes a more likely possibility if the colonially relegated group gains power after decolonization. If this group does gain power, it will pursue a policy of retribution for oppression suffered during the colonially period, repression of the colonially elevated group, and minimization of the return to the colonially order in which they were the …

Fragmentation Within The Modern Basque Nationalist Movement And Its Implications For Basque Cultural Identity, Kathryn Zoe Merrell
Fragmentation Within The Modern Basque Nationalist Movement And Its Implications For Basque Cultural Identity, Kathryn Zoe Merrell
Honors Theses
This thesis explores the Basque Nationalist Movement from its inception to modem times. Through the exploration of empirical data, this thesis will show how the processes of industrialization, urbanization, immigration, globalization, and the dissemination of information through the mass media affect the Nationalist ideology in the Basque region. In the conclusion, it becomes apparent that the Nationalist ideology becomes increasingly water downed as Nationalist leaders attempt to make their brand of Nationalism more appealing to the Spanish government and the European Union.

Ecocritism And The Renaissance: A Study In Shakespeare And More, Melissa Levert Smith
Ecocritism And The Renaissance: A Study In Shakespeare And More, Melissa Levert Smith
Honors Theses
This study draws on ideas from the emerging field of literary criticism known as ecocriticism and extends its basic assumptions back to the Renaissance works of Thomas More and William Shakespeare. The research therefore includes primary Renaissance texts, current ecocritical works, and selections from the twentieth-century criticism from which ecocriticism developed. I investigate in detail More’s Utopia and Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream and King Lear. The study takes into account the disparity between Renaissance attitudes towards the environment and current concerns about pollution and scarcity of resources, but I suggest that the questions asked by ecocritical scholars today, when …
Cotton And Compromise: Charles Pinckney And The Political Unification Of South Carolina 1788-1808, Hunter Glenn Upchurch
Cotton And Compromise: Charles Pinckney And The Political Unification Of South Carolina 1788-1808, Hunter Glenn Upchurch
Honors Theses
This project surveys the life and times of South Carolinian Charles Pinckney after he participated in the Constitutional Convention of 1787. My objective was to discern how Pinckney’s political career both mirrored and contributed to South Carolina’s gradual shift away from Federalism towards Jeffersonian-Republicanism, as the western “Up-Country” region slowly took power from the more traditional, coastal “Low- Country.” To achieve this goal, I examined hundreds of pages of primary sources, including Pinckney’s extant speeches, his published articles or pamphlets, and many of his personal letters. To augment my factual and historiographical knowledge of the early national period of United …
