[Review Of] T. Obinkaram Echewa. The Crippled Dancer, David K. Bruner

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

At the end of The Crippled Dancer, Ajuzia asks, "Was everyone coincidentally and inadvertently carrying a bag packed by other people?" Like Browning's Andrea del Sarto who says, "So free we seem, so fettered fast we are," Ajuzia appears to accept the limitations fate and/or custom place upon the individual. Both men accept with reluctance, however, for both are free, creative spirits aware of the waste of their own talents.

Federal Narcotic Violators And The Dispositions Received Through The Courts With An Emphasis On Cocaine Offenders, Phyllis Rena Baker

Theses and Dissertations

The United states has been plagued with the problem of illicit drug use for many years. Drug abuse has continued to increase and is prevalent among all races and social classes of people. The question is what efforts have been or are being made in order to deter the influx of drugs into the country along with stopping the suppliers of these drugs and what has hindered the effectiveness of these efforts.

The theory of deterrence was applied to this problem because the model presumes that the punishment of criminal acts could deter potential offenders by making the negative consequences …

Vcu Today (1987-11-04)

VCU Today, 1972-1988

VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.

[Review Of] Ngugiwa Thiong'o. Decolonizing The Mind: The Politics Of Language In African Literature, David K. Bruner

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

"This book, Decolonising the Mind, is my farewell to English as a vehicle for any of my writings. From now on it is Gikuyu and Kiswahili all the way." This declaration by Ngugi wa Thiong'o is one he has every right to make. Many of us, however, will hear it as a casting-off of the large and appreciative readership he enjoyed from the days when, as James Gugi, he instructed and enriched us with The River Between and other fine works of art. To be sure, one can sympathize with any African's hatred of colonization, can feel with him a …

[Review Of] Bo Scholer, Ed. Coyote Was Here: Essays On Contemporary Native American Literary And Political Mobilization, Gretchen M. Bataille

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

Scholars doing research in ethnic literature have long been aware of the political nature of much of that literature. Although many critics find politicizing of literature difficult to deal with in their assessment of the artistic value of the works, it is dishonest to ignore this reality. Schöler has provided thirteen essays by creative writers and critics which define both the nature of the literature and the power of the political views which inform much of the creative output of contemporary American Indian writers. According to Schöler, "politics and aesthetics go hand in hand." Schöler and other European critics have …

[Review Of] Lydio F. Tomasi, Ed. Italian Americans: New Perspectives In Italian Immigration And Ethnicity, Gloria Lothrop

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

There are those who have heralded the 1980s as "The Decade of the Italian American" as many of the 20 million Americans of Italian descent achieve increasing prominence in politics, business, education and the arts. This new role assumed by Americans of immigrant stock has necessitated revised patterns of investigation addressing the impact of socio-economic mobility, the effects of transmigration and the growing phenomenon of exogenous marriage. For example, of the Italian American women born since 1950, between two-thirds and three-quarters have married outside the ethnic group. Finally, the size and multigenerational sampling provided by the Italian American population invites …
