Black Racial Identity And The Search For Self: Confronting Intergroup Stereotypes And Conflict, John Leonard Harris

Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 3rd Annual National Conference (1998)

“The reality of internal stereotyping is that its basis is in the Black experience in America. This phenomena, which has its roots in White racism and slavery, has possibly had as much of a negative impact on the Black experience as any other factor.”

The Auburn Plan: A Model For Mentoring African American Athletes, James C. Brown, Stacy L. Danley

Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 3rd Annual National Conference (1998)

“Because increased retention presents the greatest short-term opportunity to significantly increase the graduation of the African American athlete, the Athletic Department’s objective in developing the mentoring program is to identify additional strategies to retain the African American student athlete.”

A Response To Elizabeth Owen’S “4qdeutn: A Pre-Samaritan Text?”, Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

I would like to thank the editors of Dead Sea Discoveries for giving me the opportunity to respond to Elizabeth Owen’s article (vol. 4:2, July 1997), which makes extensive use of my previous work on 4QDeutn. While I find myself in broad agreement with her conclusions (see below), I feel that her article, with its heavy reliance on my unpublished doctoral dissertation, gives a misleading impression of my scholarship on 4QDeutn, and I would like to take this opportunity to set the record straight.

Review Of The Hidden Scrolls: Christianity, Judaism And The War For The Dead Sea Scrolls, By Neil Asher Silberman, Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

The Hidden Scrolls: Christianity, Judaism, and the War for the Dead Sea Scrolls, by Neil Asher Silberman. New York: Riverhead Books, 1994; London: Heinemann, 1995. Pp. xiv + 306. ISBN 0-434-70288-9.

Neil Asher Silberman, a popular writer and journalist who specializes in the area of archaeology and history of the Ancient Mediterranean, has written a fine book for the general public on the Dead Sea Scrolls in the tradition of Edmund Wilson’s The Scrolls from the Dead Sea. Silberman has a knack for taking what would in other hands be dry, esoteric subjects and rendering them into a popular …

Review Of Sharon L. Jansen, Dangerous Talk And Strange Behavior: Women And Popular Resistance To The Reforms Of Henry Viii, Carole Levin

Department of History: Faculty Publications

Sharon L. Jansen's study of women and popular resistance in the reign of Henry VIII is an important work that breaks new ground and will be of value to a wide range of scholars. It is scrupulously well researched and shows a thorough grounding in the secondary literature on the politics of early Tudor England, women's history, and feminist theory. Jansen focuses on four women, all of whom were executed for treason in the reign of Henry VIII: Elizabeth Wood, Margaret Cheyne, Elizabeth Barton, and Mabel Brigge. Yet none of these women had posed a direct, physical threat to the …

It’S A Question Of Faith: Discourses Of Fundamentalism And Critical Pedagogy In The Writing Classroom, Amy M. Goodburn

Department of English: Faculty Publications

In the past decade, the discourses of critical pedagogy (Giroux, Kincheloe, McLaren, Simon) have shaped the arena of composition studies (Berlin & Vivion, Bizzell, Fox, Hurlbert & Blitz, Knoblauch & Brannon, Shor). As compositionists turn to writing pedagogics that explore how issues of difference shape people’s lives, many have begun to examine how social constructs of race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and so on account for the ways that students read and write about texts. While these constructs are clearly important for students to examine in terms of their personal and social identities, there is another difference that usually remains …

Review Of Emblems And Alchemy, By Alison Adams & Stanton J. Linden, Eds., Russell J. Ganim

French Language and Literature Papers

Combining revived interest in both the emblem and alchemy, this volume is the third in a series of works on emblem studies published by the French Department at the University of Glasgow. Its ten essays, divided among three major categories entitled, “A Theoretical Perspectives”, “The English Alchemists”, and “Continental Manifestations”, stress inter disciplinarity as they explore the relationships between text, image, and alchemical practice. Broad in scope but detailed in its analyses, the compendium raises several intriguing questions about the correspondence between literature, art, and pseudo-science. Despite the diversity of its topics, the collection is often surprisingly unified in its …

Gothic Pillars And Blue Notes: Art As A Reflection Of The Conflict Of Religions, Part I, Quentin Faulkner

Glenn Korff School of Music: Faculty Publications

Candlelight reflecting off the clutter of wall plaques and massive Baroque monuments makes a feeble attempt to dispel the gloom of a late evening in December 1705. The light, radiating from the multiple galleries surrounding the great organ, reveals a large crowd, elegantly dressed, filling the vast nave and spilling over into the side aisles of St. Mary's Church in Lubeck, Germany. Most of these people have already endured the winter chill during three long hours of worship, but they are now eagerly anticipating the musical feast that will occupy the coming hour. Some 40 musicians, both singers and instrumentalists, …

Margaret Fuller's Silences, Robert N. Hudspeth

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Silences are editors' bad luck: someone before us loses the evidence; our subject outsmarts us and refuses to say what we want most to hear from her; we ask questions she never even thought to answer. Let me make up some biographical conclusions from my reading of Margaret Fuller's letters: first, she had no interest in radical abolitionism or even in more moderate antislavery efforts in New England. Second, she almost never read and cared nothing for Charles Dickens, the most popular writer of his time. Third, she never rode the horse trolleys in New York City during her twenty-month …

John Adams: On Paper And In Person, Gregg L. Lint

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

In 1774 John Adams was a thirty-nine-year-old Massachusetts lawyer of modest means, middling height, and portly physique, who was ambitious, argumentative, over-earnest, direct to the point of rudeness, and intolerant of fools. How did this man, seemingly unsympathetic and ordinary when compared to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin, become by 1776 Congress's most influential member? Why was he named president of the Board of War and appointed to the committees that drafted the Treaty Plan of 1776 and the Declaration of Independence? Why was he then chosen to serve as a diplomat in Europe and later elected vice …

What About That Twenty-Year Gap?, Carolyn De Swarte Gifford

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

What is the twenty-year gap? There are no journal volumes from fall 1870 until January 1893. After filling more than forty volumes-nearly five thousand pages detailing her life from her fifteenth through her thirty-first years, Frances E. Willard suddenly stopped keeping a journal. On her thirty-first birthday, 28 September 1870, she wrote: "[M]y Journal has this day been shaken hands with in a long adieu, and I here record my purpose to write no more wishy-washy pages of personal reminiscence." Then, just as suddenly, on New Year's Day 1893 she took up her journal again. "It is now over 20 …

Beyond The Grave –The Use And Meaning Of Human Body Parts: A Historical Introduction, Susan C. Lawrence

Department of History: Faculty Publications

In this essay I outline the wide range of ways that human beings have used body parts in the past, primarily within Anglo-American cultural frameworks and experiences. I concentrate on practices much more than on the formation of theories (e.g., development of abstract legal perspectives or philosophical analyses of the "body") or the expression of particular ethical principles (e.g., should body parts be used? should medical researchers be allowed to use tissue samples stored from days before informed consent?). A focus on historical actions, including suggestive comments on how these actions made sense at particular times and places, offers us …

Controlling The Clergy: The Oversight Of Basel's Rural Pastors In The Sixteenth Century, Amy Nelson Burnett

Department of History: Faculty Publications

Recent research has highlighted Heinrich Bullinger's role in shaping the institutional structures of the Zürich church, and particularly his use of the synod for overseeing clerical discipline. Bullinger's forceful personality and his fruitful personal relationships with several members of the Zürich Senate, combined with his lengthy tenure of office, gave him an unusually strong position from which to direct the Zürich church and to oversee its personnel. The Basel church was not so fortunate in the half-century after the death of its «founding father,» Johannes Oecolampadius, in 1531. Oswald Myconius, the Basel Antistes from 1531-1552, was acutely conscious of his …

"Introduction" To European Immigrants In The American West: Community Histories, Frederick C. Luebke

Department of History: Faculty Publications

European immigrants are the forgotten people of the American West. Their stories are not told in the many books, paintings, and movies that have created the mythic West. Immigrants did not easily fit the image of the West as the bastion of unfettered individualism and self-reliance-a region peopled by the free, brave, and pure-battling against the urbanized, industrialized, a,nd economically dominant East. Nor do European immigrants populate the pages of frontier history. Ever since Frederick Jackson Turner opened the field a hundred years ago, general histories of the American frontier have tended to ignore them. Grounded on the Turnerian notion …

Chapel Royal (Royal Household Chapel), Peter M. Lefferts

Glenn Korff School of Music: Faculty Publications

The household chapel of the English kings, a special group of personnel always in attendance on the ruler whose principal responsibility was to perform the divine service. The Chapel Royal is to be distinguished from two other major royal chapels of fixed abode founded by Edward III, the royal chapels of St. Stephen's at Westminster and St. George's at Windsor; its clerks and their duties are further to be distinguished from the King's Chaplains (a position emerging in the 1390s). There had always been chaplains at court who served the king, holding a variety of administrative responsibilities and functioning in …
