Greek And Roman Perceptions Of The Afterlife In Homer’S Iliad And Odyssey And Virgil’S Aeneid, Jeff Adams Jan 2007

Greek And Roman Perceptions Of The Afterlife In Homer’S Iliad And Odyssey And Virgil’S Aeneid, Jeff Adams

McNair Scholars Journal

This study is a literary analysis of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey and Virgil’s Aeneid. Of specific interest are the interactions of Achilles, Odysseus, and Aeneas with their beloved dead. I focused on what each party, both the living and the dead, wanted and the results of their interaction. Methods included reading passages from the ancient Greek and Latin texts and integrating these with historical evidence of beliefs in the mid-eighth century BC for the Greeks, and in the late first century BC for the Romans. Homer significantly influenced the religious beliefs of the Greeks, while Virgil did not similarly affect …

Adolescent Dating Abuse, Becky Krieg Jan 2007

Adolescent Dating Abuse, Becky Krieg

Graduate Research Papers

Abuse can take on many forms. Many adolescents have not developed a full understanding of what a healthy relationship is. Dating abuse is becoming problematic within the adolescent population and a growing concern for those in the field of school counseling. School counselors need to be able to recognize signs of both potential abusers and their victims, and provide prevention and intervention strategies involved with adolescent dating abuse. Through education and involvement of the school and community, counselors will be effective in helping to diminish the cycle of dating abuse among adolescents.

A Qualitative Study Of The Self -Concept Of Underprivileged Adolescents Attending Ryves Youth Center At Etling Hall, Kristy Ann Miller

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Using a qualitative approach, this study provided interpretative analysis of the self-concept of underprivileged adolescents attending Ryves Youth Center at Etling Hall, a youth center located in Terre Haute, Indiana. The researcher used triangulation to compare and contrast participant observations, volunteer comments, and adolescent interviews to form a theory about their level of self-concept. The researcher then referred to the data collected during the literature review to compare the self-concept of economically disadvantage youth with their more affluent peers. Through this comparison, it was found that while the research supports the theory that adolescents from poverty-stricken environments tend to show …

Webs Of Power: Multiple Ownership In Tourism Destinations, Ziene Mottiar, Hazel Tucker Jan 2007

Webs Of Power: Multiple Ownership In Tourism Destinations, Ziene Mottiar, Hazel Tucker

Articles

It has been widely noted in the tourism small business literature that collaboration between groups of businesses operating within clusters contributes both to business development and the success of destinations and regions. This paper aims to contribute to the research on tourism destination networks by focusing on multiple ownership, or portfolio entrepreneurship, when more than one small or micro business within a specific destination are owned by the same entrepreneur. Courtown, in Ireland and Göreme in Turkey are presented as two case studies in which the existence of multiple owners was identified. The implications of multiple ownership on tourism operation …

Convivencia And The “Ornament Of The World”, Kenneth Baxter Wolf Jan 2007

Convivencia And The “Ornament Of The World”, Kenneth Baxter Wolf

Pomona Faculty Publications and Research

The “Southeast Medieval Association” keynote address that Wolf gave at Wofford College in Spartanburg, South Carolina in October 2007. Convivencia is a historical term used to describe the “coexistence” of Christian, Muslim, and Jewish communities in medieval Spain and by extension the interaction, exchange, and acculturation fostered by such proximity. It first emerged as the by-product of a famous debate between Américo Castro and Claudio Sánchez-Albornoz that dominated Spanish historical scholarship during the Franco years. Since then convivencia has taken on a life of its own, fueled in part by increased interest in multi-culturalism on the one hand and rising …


The Meaning Of Folklore, Simon J. Bronner Jan 2007

The Meaning Of Folklore, Simon J. Bronner

All USU Press Publications

The essays of Alan Dundes virtually created the meaning of folklore as an American academic discipline. Yet many of them went quickly out of print after their initial publication in far-flung journals. Brought together for the first time in this volume compiled and edited by Simon Bronner, the selection surveys Dundes's major ideas and emphases, and is introduced by Bronner with a thorough analysis of Dundes's long career, his interpretations, and his inestimable contribution to folklore studies.
