Origins Of Music Programs In Liberal Arts Institutions: The Story Of Three Florida Catholic Universities, Cynthia S. Selph
Origins Of Music Programs In Liberal Arts Institutions: The Story Of Three Florida Catholic Universities, Cynthia S. Selph
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the music programs in liberal arts colleges through the historical lens of three Catholic Universities in the state of Florida. Although there are numerous historical dissertations and theses written about individual music schools and departments, and a few that compare music programs in similar types of institutions, none have compared music programs in Catholic universities within the same state. After teaching at Saint Leo University and experiencing the process of rebuilding a music program after it was almost completely lost in the mid-1990s, I wanted to study the histories of Saint Leo and other Florida Catholic institutions …
Applying Gps And Accelerometers To The Study Of African Savanna (Loxodonta Africana) And Asian Elephant (Elephas Maximus) Welfare In Zoos, Matthew Robert Holdgate
Applying Gps And Accelerometers To The Study Of African Savanna (Loxodonta Africana) And Asian Elephant (Elephas Maximus) Welfare In Zoos, Matthew Robert Holdgate
Dissertations and Theses
African savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana) and Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are a focus of welfare research in zoos due to their high intelligence, complex social structure, and sheer size. Due to these challenges, some argue that zoos are inherently incapable of providing appropriate care for elephants, while others believe that zoos can fulfill the needs of these species with improved husbandry. There is a general consensus from both within and outside of zoos, however, that zoos must improve their elephant programs or cease exhibiting these animals altogether. Now more than ever, applied research on zoo elephant welfare is needed to …
Contextualizing The Writings Of J.R.R. Tolkien On Literary Criticism, Sherrylyn Branchaw
Contextualizing The Writings Of J.R.R. Tolkien On Literary Criticism, Sherrylyn Branchaw
Journal of Tolkien Research
This essay offers a reinterpretation of Tolkien's writings about literary criticism, which are focused on Beowulf, fairy stories, and his own works. Whereas his writings have often been taken to mean that analytic scholarship is not valid and should not be pursued, my essay takes the intellectual climate of the time into consideration and offers an alternative interpretation, according to which he did not mean to forbid these studies outright and indeed intended that scholars should continue writing them. The essay ends with a call to academics not to be discouraged by his strong language from producing analytic studies.

讀李密《陳情表》小識, Chow Yiu Sin
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
注釋李密(582-619)《陳情表》之書甚夥，惟各書注釋，不盡相同，且多未能道出其解釋之根據。本文於《陳情表》及其注釋，詳稽博辨，指微抉奥，以就正於方家。
山谷行書和東坡草書《赤壁懷古》詞石刻的真僞及文獻價值, Zhaopeng Wang
山谷行書和東坡草書《赤壁懷古》詞石刻的真僞及文獻價值, Zhaopeng Wang
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
宋哲宗元祐二年丁卯（１０８７）黄庭堅行書赤壁詞，自南宋以來，既有原書真迹傳世，也有石刻搨本流傳，傳承有序，源流清晰。今存山谷行書赤壁詞石刻及其搨本，雖然不一定是山谷手書的真迹，卻是可信的文本。東坡草書赤壁詞的傳藏經過，不如山谷行書赤壁詞那樣歷歷可考，只知明嘉靖以前已有石刻。與山谷行書赤壁詞互證，東坡草書赤壁詞的文本有可信度，即便字不一定是蘇軾所寫真迹，内容應是蘇軾所作。山谷和東坡所書兩種赤壁詞，是現存最早最接近東坡赤壁詞原作的文本，可據以校正諸本異文的正誤得失：其中“談笑間、强虜灰飛煙滅”應作“笑談間、檣櫓灰飛煙滅”，“强虜”是南宋人所改，藉以影射金人。
《古今樂録》的整理與考釋, Xi Jin
《古今樂録》的整理與考釋, Xi Jin
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
《古今樂録》成書於南朝陳，是中古時期最爲重要的音樂著作之一。宋代以降，此書逐漸散佚，雖然有清人和今人的數個輯本，然其文本仍存在頗多需要辨明及完善之處。本文在對《古今樂録》進行重新輯佚和系統整理的基礎上，梳理該書的内容、體例、結構等宏觀問題，亦對其佚文的起止、正誤、疑僞等微觀問題進行探討，盡可能地恢復其本來面貌，從而揭示其在音樂史和文學史上的重要意義。
論劉向、劉歆和《漢書》之關係, Chunhong Wang
論劉向、劉歆和《漢書》之關係, Chunhong Wang
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
本文认爲，讀《漢書》，當以《楚元王傳》爲綱，並且以《五行志》等爲輔佐，來觀其書之結構和用心，可以起到提綱挈領的作用。今本《漢書》有兩個關注點，除了朝政之外，還有楚元王一系之遭際。劉向活躍於宣、元、成帝三朝政壇，他與他的父親劉德經歷了前漢武帝身後的重大政治鬥爭。然而，劉德、劉向和劉歆亦並非純然從儒家道統出發，來爲民請命、仗義執言。他們主要代表劉氏宗親一系政治和經濟利益，所以劉氏不遺餘力地對外戚口誅筆伐。此從某種程度上看，實際上是劉氏諸侯和皇帝外戚利益較量，總劉向一生，堪稱劉氏宗親利益的代言人，當然更是自家利益捍衛者，其言行無不與此種身份立場相關聯。故而，《漢書》並非成於一人一時之手。今本署名班固著《漢書》，在很大程度上，可以視作一部圍繞楚元王家族（尤其是以劉德、劉向、劉歆一支）之前漢遭際爲中心，所生發、結撰的政治載記，班氏父子共同依照劉向、劉歆藍本來結撰《漢書》，其中緣由遠比“盜竊父史”來得複雜！
《大唐西域記》所載佛教口傳故事考述, Yinchi Chen, Te Chen
《大唐西域記》所載佛教口傳故事考述, Yinchi Chen, Te Chen
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
《大唐西域記》是中古西行求法僧人撰寫的一部重要著作，其歷史、地理和風俗上的價值極高，即從宗教文學方面觀察，其記述西域、印度等地流傳之佛教故事傳説甚夥，亦不容忽視。本文試從文本比勘入手，推證《大唐西域記》記述佛教傳説故事的書面典籍和口頭傳播兩種來源方式及兩者錯綜交織之表現，條理並分析其特點，進而顯示玄奘撰述態度的多面性以及其著作包涵的複雜性。
再論《劉子》是否爲劉勰所作 : 兼談學術爭論中的學風問題, Shaokang Zhang
再論《劉子》是否爲劉勰所作 : 兼談學術爭論中的學風問題, Shaokang Zhang
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
近來有人認爲《劉子》作者是劉勰，這種結論的得出，體現了作者曲解材料的不良學風，本文爲之做正本清源的駁斥。認爲《劉子》是劉勰所作者的文獻根據就是兩《唐志》的著録，本文考辨了兩《唐志》致誤的緣起，從目録學上，否定了某些人據以爲劉勰著《劉子》的可信性。從《劉子》基本思想傾向、人格思想素質以及語言風格諸方面與《文心雕龍》相對照，所呈現之差異，可徹底否定所謂《劉子》爲劉勰所作之謬論。一切基於違背實事求是原則而作的所謂學術研究，根本是站不住脚的。

Faculty Articles
Professor Derrick Bell was one of the most influential constitutional scholars of the last fifty years His insights spurred civil rights scholars as well as thinkers in other fields One of his most important legacies is the interestconvergence thesis which asserts that historically African Americans gained social justice primarily when their interests converged with the interests of the white majority In a recently published article Rethinking the InterestConvergence Thesis Professor Justin Driver calls this legacy into question This Essay defends the interestconvergence thesis from Driver's attack It argues that the analytical flaws he identifies only exist by dint of his …
Sumpong Spirit Beliefs, Murder, And Religious Change Among Eighteenth-Century Aeta And Ilongot In Eastern Central Luzon, Mark; Ateneo Dizon
Sumpong Spirit Beliefs, Murder, And Religious Change Among Eighteenth-Century Aeta And Ilongot In Eastern Central Luzon, Mark; Ateneo Dizon
Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints
In common usage and in psychology sumpong is considered a deviant and irrational behavior. Thisarticle makes sense of sumpong by putting it in the historical context of animism, specifically that of the eighteenth-century Aeta and Ilongot of eastern Central Luzon. As a form of perception, feeling, and action, sumpong was temporally flat since past, present, and future did not succeed one another in linear fashion. Based on historical dictionaries and usage, thisarticle explores the role of sumpong as an affective and culturally intelligible way of understanding and acting in the animist world as seen in cases of murder and religious …

H1n1 Influenza Virus, Kail Consford, Drew Patel
Infectious Diseases Project 2015
On April 17, 2009, two patients in the United States were found with Swine-Origin Influenza A (H1N1) virus. This virus was spread to Mexico, Canada, and many other countries.

The most common symptoms were fever, cough, and a sore throat. The H1N1 was determined to …
Number 2 - The Role Of Western Democratic System Of Governance In Exacerbating Ethnic Conflicts In Africa: The Case Of Ghana's Democratic Dispensation, 1992-2012, David Kwasi Bansah
Number 2 - The Role Of Western Democratic System Of Governance In Exacerbating Ethnic Conflicts In Africa: The Case Of Ghana's Democratic Dispensation, 1992-2012, David Kwasi Bansah
Peace and Conflict Management Working Papers Series
This paper interrogates the influence of Western forms of democracy on ethnic conflicts in Africa through a case study of Ghana’s adoption of multiparty democracy between 1992 and 2012. It discusses the transition of African traditional systems of government before, during, and after colonization. The paper also shows how democracy, by definition and in terms of governance, cannot solely be a Western idea since many African societies had democratic elements in their systems of government before the arrival of the Europeans. Relying on qualitative secondary data, and the analysis of fierce and acrimonious competition that have characterized multiparty democratic elections …
Learning To Be Quaker: Spiritual Formation And Religious Education Among Early Friends, Martha Paxson Grundy
Learning To Be Quaker: Spiritual Formation And Religious Education Among Early Friends, Martha Paxson Grundy
Quaker Studies
The theology and lifestyle that grew from Friends' transforming experience of'primitive Christianity revived' differed from the dominant culture, exacting a high cost. Relying on early Friends' writing, this article examines how this new paradigm was transmitted. Friends summarized the basis of their faith with the phrase 'Christ is come to teach his people himself' (Benson 1968: 36; 1976: 3; Cooper 1990: 2; Freiday 1984: 4; Grundy 2002b: 11-13, 15, 17). In the 1650s and 1660s most people who became Friends were first worked on internally by the Holy Spirit. When they heard a Quaker preach, the words reached to the …

Book Review: San Miguel, Chicana/O Struggles For Education: Activism In The Community, Maritza De La Trinidad
Mexican American Studies Faculty Publications
Guadalupe San Miguel’s Chicana/o Struggles for Education: Activism in the Community is the seventh book in the University of Houston Series in Mexican American Studies. The author provides a historical overview of the multiple strategies and methods that Mexican American activists, organizations, and like-minded individuals employed in order to obtain not only quality education but also culturally relevant and religious education for Mexican-origin students from the 1960s to 2010. San Miguel focuses on this period in order to show how Mexican American education evolved in the post–Civil Rights era and how different groups pushed for educational reforms to achieve their …
