Writing The Nation: Ignacio Manuel Altamirano's Romantic Vision And Porfirian Development, Jason C. Denzin Nov 2006

Writing The Nation: Ignacio Manuel Altamirano's Romantic Vision And Porfirian Development, Jason C. Denzin

Department of History: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

As articulated in Ignacio Manuel Altamirano’s Romantic novel El Zarco (1888) and the accounts of contemporary travelers, various interpretations about the pace and course of the country’s development abounded in Mexico during the late nineteenth-century. The current project evaluates El Zarco as a historical text and uses it as a window into the Porfirian nation-building project. By comparing the vision outlined in the novel with the published accounts of contemporary travelers this project demonstrates the contested nature of development among Mexico’s national elites during the Porfiriato. This thesis argues that from the competing visions of national development specific categories for …

Scholarship In Action: The Case For Engagement, Nancy Cantor Nov 2006

Scholarship In Action: The Case For Engagement, Nancy Cantor

Chancellor's Collection

Tonight I want to make the case for bold, imaginative, reciprocal, and sustained engagements between colleges and universities and their many constituent communities, local as well as global. If we intend to pursue the vision of the university as a public good, with broad benefits for our knowledge society---especially for the understanding and practice of democracy and the values of diversity, social justice and peace---we must initiate and support these new kinds of engagements. And we must extend the practice of them from their historical roots in the great public land-grant universities and community colleges of our nation to the …

The Large‐Scale Freshwater Cycle Of The Arctic, Mark C. Serreze, Andrew P. Barrett, Andrew G. Slater, Rebecca A. Woodgate, Knut Aagaard, Richard B. Lammers, Michael Steele, Richard Moritz, Michael Meredith, Craig M. Lee Nov 2006

The Large‐Scale Freshwater Cycle Of The Arctic, Mark C. Serreze, Andrew P. Barrett, Andrew G. Slater, Rebecca A. Woodgate, Knut Aagaard, Richard B. Lammers, Michael Steele, Richard Moritz, Michael Meredith, Craig M. Lee

Faculty Publications

This paper synthesizes our understanding of the Arctic's large‐scale freshwater cycle. It combines terrestrial and oceanic observations with insights gained from the ERA‐40 reanalysis and land surface and ice‐ocean models. Annual mean freshwater input to the Arctic Ocean is dominated by river discharge (38%), inflow through Bering Strait (30%), and net precipitation (24%). Total freshwater export from the Arctic Ocean to the North Atlantic is dominated by transports through the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (35%) and via Fram Strait as liquid (26%) and sea ice (25%). All terms are computed relative to a reference salinity of 34.8. Compared to earlier estimates, …

Static From Under The Snow, John Early Nov 2006

Static From Under The Snow, John Early

Theses and Dissertations

Static From Under the Snow, a creative dissertation, is a collection of poems that discusses perceptions of culture and identity. The manuscript employs a framing poem to open this inquiry into how culture produces an identity that isn't always what it appears to be. The narrator invites an unnamed Asian woman (who, as an immigrant, has expressed a desire to be a part of the dominant white, patriarchal culture) to accompany him as he shows her how he became the man he is, and the resultant disappointment and anger. He invites her to listen to the many voices (poems) that …
