Perspectives In Gifted Education: Complexities Of Emotional Development, Spirituality And Hope, Institute For The Development Of Gifted Education, Ricks Center For Gifted Children, University Of Denver

Perspectives in Gifted Education

This is the third in a series of monographs funded by the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation through the Institute for the Development of Gifted Education at the University of Denver. The first monograph contained different perspectives on the growth and development of young gifted children. The second monograph addressed the characteristics and needs of the twice-exceptional: those who are gifted and have some type of disabling condition.

This monograph is focused on the personality, spiritual and character development of gifted children, including the process of instilling hope and resilience in this special population. The authors explore the development of …

The Dick Whittington Story: Theories Of Poor Relief, Social Ambition, And Possibilities For Class Transformation, Helen Hershkoff

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

The New Yorker cartoon, with its pessimistic emphasis on a child's economic prospects, provides a foil to the Whittington story and its optimistic attitude toward law and social possibility. I suggest in this talk that contemporary children's literature shares with the cartoon a similar lack of confidence in law's capacity to generate advancement and prosperity. My comments rely on Eleanor Updale's award-winning Montmorency series and Philip Pullman's widely acclaimed His Dark Materials trilogy to try to glean a better sense of cultural understandings of law and of law's contemporary relation to social mobility. I take these books as my texts, …

The Handmaid’S Tale Of Fertility Tourism: Passports And Third Parties In The Religious Regulation Of Assisted Conception, Richard F. Storrow

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

Infertility is a devastating global malady triggering worldwide demand for a vast array of reproduction assisting technologies. Infertility is particularly devastating in "pronatalist" societies marked by high rates of infertility and large disparities in access to medical services. Poverty in particular impedes large segments of the population in pronatalist Third World countries from gaining access even to very basic techniques of infertility treatment and consigns them to ineffective traditional remedies. In this Article drawing on both ethnographic work on infertility in the Third World and on Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, Professor Storrow examines two starkly class-stratified societies where reproduction …

Stories That Make The Law Free: Literature As A Bridge Between The Law And The Culture In Which It Must Exist, Christine Metteer Lorillard

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

In this paper, I will examine how literature, by telling stories and examining their meaning, allows us to make the law free, by seeing it in its cultural context. I take, as a specific example Barbara Kingsolver's novel, Pigs in Heaven, as it explores the cultural dialectic underlying application of the Indian Child Welfare Act.

Why Is There No Russian Atticus Finch? Or Even A Russian Rumpole?, Michael Newcity

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

The purpose of this Article is to examine how the pre- and postreform nineteenth-century Russian legal institutions were reflected in literature of that time and to analyze why the literary theme that has been so common and strong in Anglophonic literature-the lawyer, judge, and jury as hero-never appeared in Russia.

Harry Potter And The Law, Jeffrey E. Thomas, James Charles Smith, Danaya Wright, Benjamin H. Barton, Aaron Schwabach

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

This collection of essays about the law and Harry Potter explores the intersections between law, culture, and the Harry Potter stories. The collection begins with a group of essays, consistent with some of the previous legal literature, about the limitations of law and legal institutions as depicted in the Harry Potter narratives. The essays by James Charles Smith and Danaya Wright begin by considering the depiction of families in the narratives, and show the limited role of law for family relationships. The essay by Benjamin H. Barton considers a more legalistic institution, the Ministry of Magic, an institution depicted with …

Europe: A Civilization On The Edge, Peter O'Brien

Political Science Faculty Research

Our European culture is one that has staked its all on the universal and the danger menacing it is that of perishing by the universal.

Jean Baudrillard¹

Rémi Brague rejects common charges of Eurocentrisim leveled against Western civilization. He prefers to characterize the West as "eccentric," meaning off center. He equates Western civilization with Europe and understands it as that civilization which grew out of the western half of the Roman Empire and with time differentiated itself from Byzantine and Islamic civilizations (themselves successors to the Roman heritage). He labels Europe eccentric because it stands (physically and figuratively) on …

Relationship Between Traditional Grammar Terminology And Metacognitive Application Of Grammar Concepts, Annalisa M. Buerke

Master of Education Program Theses

This literature review revisits the debate of whether grammar instruction can improve adherence to written English conventions. However, the paper focuses on the role of traditional definitions rather than on delivery methods. Two questions guide this paper: I. Do traditional terms and definitions hinder students' understanding of grammar concepts? 2. How can teachers define grammar terms in a clearer, more accurate manner? The paper uses prominent grammarians such as C. Weaver, R. Noguchi and M. Kolin and provides a history of methodology, noting researchers' observations of traditional terms and definitions. The paper concludes that secondary teachers can supplement traditional definitions …

Translating The Lesbian Writer : Pierre Loüys, Natalie Clifford Barney, And "Girls Of The Future Society", Tama L. Engelking

World Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

When Pierre Louÿs published his Chansons de Bilitis in 1894, he dedicated the volume of prose poems, which he claimed to have translated from the Greek, to "Young Girls of the Future Society." He portrayed his Bilitis as a contemporary of Sappho's whose life story, described in the three parts of the Chansons, takes her from deflowered shepherdess, to lesbian lover, to courtesan. More than a literary hoax or a collection of erotic poems, his Bilitis songs became the inspiration for a young Sapphic writer who embodied those girls of the future to whom Louÿs had dedicated his work, Natalie …
