“The Whole Vexed Question”: Seamus Heaney, Old English And Language Troubles, Una A. Creedon-Carey Jan 2015

“The Whole Vexed Question”: Seamus Heaney, Old English And Language Troubles, Una A. Creedon-Carey

Honors Papers

As an Irish poet writing during the twentieth century, Seamus Heaney is constantly aware of the politics and problems of operating in the English language. My project locates Heaney in a context of writers and theorists who are similarly interested in the politics of language-ownership and the logistics of communication and expression in a major language. I argue that Heaney’s North presents a unique solution to these common language questions, and that the poet’s focus on etymologies and language history makes his escape into linguistic nonaffiliation more feasible than other, more abstract attempts at a borderless, liberated language.

On The Beat: Stories From 1914-1918: A Fresh Approach To Interpreting Crime History At Bishop's Stortford Museum, Dorian Knight Jan 2015

On The Beat: Stories From 1914-1918: A Fresh Approach To Interpreting Crime History At Bishop's Stortford Museum, Dorian Knight

SOLON Law, Crime and History (previously SOLON Crimes and Misdemeanours: Deviance and the Law in Historical Perspective)

Following the donation of a rare collection of policing documents from World War I, Bishop's Stortford Museum displayed these remarkable accounts in a temporary exhibition entitled 'On the Beat: The Great War 1914-1918.'2 Within this article I aim to theorise the problematic aspects of museum exhibition design and the construction of meaning within the context of exhibiting historical policing archives. This will be achieved by addressing specific elements within the gallery space, including the use of colour, atmosphere and emotion as well as the primary communicative approach of employing graphic novels and comic strips. I endeavour to illustrate that using …


A Phenomenological Study Of Participation In Specialized And Inclusive Recreation Programs, Charles Keith Mullins Jan 2015

A Phenomenological Study Of Participation In Specialized And Inclusive Recreation Programs, Charles Keith Mullins

Online Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand whether participation in specialized recreation programs, which are designed for individuals with disabilities, increases opportunities for participation in inclusive programs, which are designed for both individuals with and without disabilities. Regardless of the popularity and growth of inclusive services, specialized programs persevere in numerous recreational service settings and continue to be used by individuals with disabilities and their families. This study helps to clarify why individuals with disabilities and their families choose to participate or not participate in these programs. The research questions focused on the connection between participation in specialized …

At The Crossroads And Spiraling Back: A Mystory Experiment In/As Descansos, Rebecca M. Kennerly Jan 2015

At The Crossroads And Spiraling Back: A Mystory Experiment In/As Descansos, Rebecca M. Kennerly

Iowa Journal of Communication

This essay is an experiment in ethnographic writing using Bowman and Bowman's (2002) mystory method, based on my research with roadside shrines-called descansos in the Southwest-and how these sites perform in personal, popular and institutional culture. This essay also explores how my work has been influenced by one cross-country road trip to visit my friend Dan Vice, who was dying: along the way I come to terms with (among other things) our conflicted allegiances to the Catholic Church and eventual turn to a Navajo-inflected understanding of being-in-the-world which helped us, in our own way, make sense of living in the …

Mimosa 2014/2015, Jacksonville State University

JSU Yearbooks

The JSU Yearbook Collection spans the years from 1926 to the present. The publication began in 1926 as the Teacola (some volumes spelled "Teacoala") and continued under this title through 1933. The yearbook appears to have ceased printing after that year; the student newspaper took the name Teacola (later changed to the Collegian and finally the Chanticleer) and began publication in 1934. The yearbook started up again in 1947 under the name Mimosa. The Library holds all volume years that were printed: 1926-1933, 1947-1950, 1952-present.


Grecian Theater In Philadelphia, 1800-1870, Lee Pearcy Jan 2015

Grecian Theater In Philadelphia, 1800-1870, Lee Pearcy

Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies Faculty Research and Scholarship

Between the death of President Washington and the Civil War, dramas set in ancient Greece or based on Greek models allowed Philadelphia audiences to simultaneously affirm and subvert their ideas about gender, race, and society. Greek drama on the Philadelphia stage before the 1880s was represented by adaptations, and often adaptations of adaptations, that are far from anything that a twenty-first-century audience would accept as Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, or Aristophanes. The reception of Ernst Legouvé’s Médée as both tragic drama and minstrel burlesque and responses to the real-life tragedy of Margaret Garner provide striking examples of receptions divided along the …

Friday Is A Planet: Stories, Allison Pinkerton Jan 2015

Friday Is A Planet: Stories, Allison Pinkerton

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Friday is a Planet: Stories is a collection of short fiction that explores the ways loss can alter family bonds. Characters in these stories have lost daughters, sisters, mothers, and friends. Some characters go to extreme lengths to return to their loved ones—one woman hallucinates, another time travels. Others deal with the loss in more conventional ways, through support groups and the emotional outlet of community theatre. What ties these stories together is a sense of post-loss confusion and mystery. The characters are unsure how to move forward, or if they should try. The men and women in these stories …

Information For Inspiration: Understanding Information-Seeking Behaviour And Library Usage Of Students At The Hong Kong Design Institute, Patrick Lo, Wilson Chu Jan 2015

Information For Inspiration: Understanding Information-Seeking Behaviour And Library Usage Of Students At The Hong Kong Design Institute, Patrick Lo, Wilson Chu

Staff Publications

The process of information- and inspiration-seeking behaviour amongst artists and designers often involve direct observation, note-taking, collecting materials and image samples, recognising styles, analysing movements, patterns, textures, as well as experimenting with different materials and techniques. They also rely heavily on having access to a variety of visual resources, both physical and digital, during the process of inspiration-seeking. However, there have been few studies on how art and design students look for and use information in the digital age, especially in the context of the library. This paper reports on an empirical study of the inspiration-seeking process and other information-related …

Statecraft: Vandalism And Iconoclasm In The Digital Age, Connell Vaughan Jan 2015

Statecraft: Vandalism And Iconoclasm In The Digital Age, Connell Vaughan

Conference papers

Not only is vandalism increasingly subject to digital documentation, but the aesthetic nature of vandalism itself is different as a result of the digital. No longer is vandalism a local destructive act, it has become an act performed primarily for broadcast to global markets. This paper uses the example of Islamic State (IS) iconoclasm to explore the way in which digital media is strategically used by vandals and considers the responses of the heritage industry to respond to such destruction. It illustrates how the deliberate digital documentation and subsequent global broadcasting of the destruction of cultural heritage by Islamic State …
