Instead Of Erklären And Verstehen: William James On Human Understanding, David E. Leary
Instead Of Erklären And Verstehen: William James On Human Understanding, David E. Leary
Psychology Faculty Publications
Perhaps more than any other American psychologist and philosopher, William James (1842-1910) was intimately familiar with contemporary European thought and debate, including the discussion of Erklären and Verstehen advanced by Wilhelm Dilthey (1833-1911) and others around the turn of the twentieth century. Even before this discussion was initiated, James had been dealing with related issues, pondering alternative solutions, and formulating his own original views on human understanding. These views coalesced in a distinctive approach to cognition. Fundamental to this approach was a belief in possibility and probability as innate features of the physical as well as mental manifestations of the …
Text And Paratext In Oscar Wilde's "A House Of Pomegranates", Leandra Elisabeth Binder
Text And Paratext In Oscar Wilde's "A House Of Pomegranates", Leandra Elisabeth Binder
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
Oscar Wilde's short collection of fairy tales A House of Pomegranates (1891), often considered a minor work, is analyzed textually in conjunction with its book design, by Charles Ricketts and Charles H. Shannon, which accompanied it in the first edition. A House of Pomegranates was the first book Charles Ricketts designed for Wilde, and Wilde uses Ricketts's designs almost exclusively from that point. Despite this, the designs for A House of Pomegranates have not yet been studied at any great length. The methods Wilde and Ricketts use to lace the all-important theme of individuality, found in Wilde's contemporary piece "The …
A Revisionist Perspective Of Aristocratic Divorce In Georgian England, Dawn Ham
A Revisionist Perspective Of Aristocratic Divorce In Georgian England, Dawn Ham
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
This thesis is about the developments in aristocratic divorce in Georgian England. I specify aristocratic, because at this time they were the only individuals who had the financial means to obtain a divorce by Act of Parliament. Officially, no divorce law existed in England until 1857. I have analyzed three divorce cases for adultery from the 1770's and researched how aspects of gender and class impacted the development of the process of divorce. I look at issues of power, shame, and the distinctions between the public and private spheres for men and women. I also investigate the impact of the …
Lake Affect: A Novel Excerpt And Other Stories, Perry Sundberg
Lake Affect: A Novel Excerpt And Other Stories, Perry Sundberg
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
As part of the degree requirement for an MFA in Creative writing I am submitting an unpublished, original collection of short stories and a novel excerpt as my thesis. These stories are meant to encapsulate the feelings of need and confusion, the desire for understanding and acceptance, and ultimately the finality and the sometimes futility of life. These stories are meant to infuse the reader with feelings of both joy and despair, but never with passive acceptance. The title story, Lake Affect, is best described as an excerpt from a novel in progress. This portion of the novel should stand …
Reinventing Downtown San Diego: A Spatial And Cultural Analysis Of The Gaslamp Quarter And Horton Plaza, Jordan Chase Ervin
Reinventing Downtown San Diego: A Spatial And Cultural Analysis Of The Gaslamp Quarter And Horton Plaza, Jordan Chase Ervin
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
This research project explores issues of historic preservation, gentrification, and the contention over public space and culture. More specifically, it analyzes these elements within the setting of the historic Gaslamp Quarter and Horton Plaza in downtown San Diego. By tracing their development and conception from the early 1970s into the twenty-first century, this research reveals the different types of images and cultures that city leaders and developers created within the built environment. More importantly, the project sheds light upon how different social groups understood, experienced, and responded to the transformation of these spaces. This type of analysis is crucial for …
Songs From The Ashes: An Examination Of Three Holocaust-Themed Song Cycles By Lori Laitman, Serdar Ilban
Songs From The Ashes: An Examination Of Three Holocaust-Themed Song Cycles By Lori Laitman, Serdar Ilban
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
During the years of the Holocaust, literature of many different types was generated in order to fulfill the distinctive needs of people caught in an unimaginable nightmare. Despite the horrific conditions or perhaps propelled by them, the Jewish people kept diaries, wrote poetry and stories, and they made music, in particular, by singing. This literature represents the undying hope, the very soul of the Jewish people; Lori Laitman is one of the most prolific composers of American art songs working today. Although the amount of scholarly work on Laitman's music is rather limited, this should not diminish the worthiness of …
Building The Ark, Jessica Kruse
Building The Ark, Jessica Kruse
UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations
Building the Ark is a reference to the Biblical story of Noah's and the Ark. I became fascinated with this story a few years ago after realizing that, like many females mentioned in the Bible, the wife of Noah has no name and is simply a peripheral figure. This title poem, which attempts to uncover the story of a modern-day nameless wife of Noah, soon became central to the focus of the entire manuscript. Like the title poem, the manuscript as a whole focuses on physical and emotional displacement, with an emphasis on the search for a geographical and psychological …

Gender Portrayal In J.K. Rowling's “Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix”: A Feminist Rhetorical Criticism, Nicole Ackman
Gender Portrayal In J.K. Rowling's “Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix”: A Feminist Rhetorical Criticism, Nicole Ackman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study examined J.K. Rowling’s (2003) novel entitled, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Although this novel has not yet been classified as a fairy tale, it does contain fairy tale elements. This study reviewed literature in the field of folklore, fairy tales, and feminism. Foss’ (2004) four-step feminist criticism model was employed to analyze gender portrayals in the novel. According to Foss’ model, the novel was analyzed for masculine or feminine perspectives of the world, effects on the audience, improvement of women’s lives, and impact on rhetorical theory. Although Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix …

An Empirical Analysis Of The Confirmation Hearings Of The Justices Of The Rehnquist Natural Court, Jason J. Czarnezki
An Empirical Analysis Of The Confirmation Hearings Of The Justices Of The Rehnquist Natural Court, Jason J. Czarnezki
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
Despite the importance of this question, surprisingly little work has been done comparing the statements made by nominees at their confirmation hearings with their subsequent behavior on the Supreme Court. If the hearings reveal substantively valuable information about nominees' views, then we would expect to find a relationship between the Justices' statements and their judicial decisions. This Article is an initial look at that relationship. Specifically, we examine statements involving the nominees' views on stare decisis, originalism and legislative history, and also statements involving their views on the rights of criminal defendants. We then rank order the nominees' confirmation hearings …

Chaucerian Ekphrasis: Power, Place And Image In The Knight's Tale, Tara Fairclough
Chaucerian Ekphrasis: Power, Place And Image In The Knight's Tale, Tara Fairclough
Senior Honors Theses and Projects
We first glimpse Chaucer’s Knight in a portrait-like description of him that Chaucer the narrator relays in the General Prologue of The Canterbury Tales. Chaucer describes the Knight as embodying all of the necessary characteristics of a “verray, parfit gentil knight,” true, complete and noble (GP 72). In addition to this, he is a veteran of crusades and has gained an outstanding reputation through his deeds. Despite the Knight’s impeccable track record, he has a somewhat shabby appearance, which contrasts starkly with the ideals he embodies. Chaucer tells us “But for to tellen yow of his array,/ His hors were …

Mario Van Peebles’S Panther And Popular Memories Of The Black Panther Party, Kristen Hoerl
Mario Van Peebles’S Panther And Popular Memories Of The Black Panther Party, Kristen Hoerl
Scholarship and Professional Work - Communication
The 1995 movie Panther depicted the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense as a vibrant but ultimately doomed social movement for racial and economic justice during the late 1960s. Panther’s narrative indicted the white-operated police for perpetuating violence against African-Americans and for undermining movements for black empowerment. As such, this film represented a rare source of filmic counter-memory that challenged hegemonic memories of U.S. race relations. Newspaper reports and reviews of Panther, however, questioned this film’s veracity as a source of historical information. An analysis of these reviews and reports indicates the challenges counter-memories confront in popular culture.
