Ana Mendieta, The Iowa Years: A Critical Study, 1969 Through 1977, Julia P. Herzberg

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This dissertation investigates the artistic development of Ana Mendieta (born Cuba, 1948; died United States, 1985) from 1969 to 1977 when she lived in Iowa City, attended the University of Iowa, worked as an art teacher, and established herself as an artist. Mendieta is known for her early performance pieces and earth-body sculptures. From the late 1980s her work has been increasingly included in the contexts of feminist art history, performance, photography, work in nature, body art, self-representation, Cuban art, and transcultural identity. Collected by major museums throughout the United States, her work has begun to be included in surveys …

In Union Is Strength Mormon Women And Cooperation, 1867-1900, Kathleen C. Haggard May 1998

In Union Is Strength Mormon Women And Cooperation, 1867-1900, Kathleen C. Haggard

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

In 1847, the Mormons entered the Great Basin and under the direction of Brigham Young, began an era of cooperation. The cooperative efforts of the Mormons extended to all aspects of their economic life and was designed to bring about a self-sufficient community. This paper examines three geographic areas in Utah and, using a comparative framework, studies the cooperative efforts of Mormon women from these regions with regards to three business initiatives: cooperative stores, sericulture (silk culture), and grain storage. Within this context, the economic impact of Mormon women on their communities, through the church's female organization, the relief society, …


"Halfway Between Nobody Knows Where And Somebody's Starting Point": A History Of The West End Of Montrose County, Colorado, John A. Hardcastle May 1998

"Halfway Between Nobody Knows Where And Somebody's Starting Point": A History Of The West End Of Montrose County, Colorado, John A. Hardcastle

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The thesis contains interesting and relevant information concerning the impact of the mining and milling industry on communities located within a geographically, socially, politically, and economically defined area in southwestern Colorado. This area supplied a tremendous amount of radium, vanadium, and uranium in successive eras. The author focuses primarily on Uravan, and examines the town's role in the uranium procurement program during World War II. The study of Uravan also provides information on the social structure of a company-owned community. Also examined are the ways in which government policies affected these small communities, and the impacts of the mining and …


English Loanwords In Chicano Spanish: Characterization And Rationale, Robert N. Smead May 1998

English Loanwords In Chicano Spanish: Characterization And Rationale, Robert N. Smead

Faculty Publications

One highly visible, often stigmatized feature of Chicano Spanish is lexical innovation due to intimate contact with English and the mainstream culture. As noted in table 1, these Anglicisms are the result of varying degrees of host language adaptation and integration and include at least three distinct types of innovations: the lexical switch, the loanword, and the calque.

Everything's Relative: The Theory Of Relativity's Influence On Early Twentieth-Century Thought, Shawna Jo Randall May 1998

Everything's Relative: The Theory Of Relativity's Influence On Early Twentieth-Century Thought, Shawna Jo Randall

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

In the early twentieth century Albert Einstein revolutionized humankind's understanding of the universe. Few scientific innovations have had as pervasive an impact as Einstein's Theory of Relativity. His conjectures accounted for scientific phenomena which were otherwise unexplained. With a set of abstract equations, he created unity and consistency among otherwise disconnected entities. He redefined the universe and transformed previous notions about space and time. For the scientific community the Theory of Relativity established a foundation for subsequent developments in physics. It is important to note, however, that the nonscientific community was also profoundly affected by Einstein's theory. Lay people did …

A Silhouette Of Society, Gerri Waters Sorenson

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

With a land survey completed by George Washington, the Virginia Assembly approved an act on May 11, 1749 which established the town of Alexandria. By 1760 a traveler described the burgeoning city as ''a small trading place, situated on an arch of a large circular bay ... at one extremity of which is a wharf; at the other a dock for building ships." Annexed as part of the District of Columbia in 1791, a young merchant from London commented around this time that "the town was mainly one street, running northeast and southwest ... Wooden houses predominated with a few …


Philosophical Questions About The Ethics Of Intellectual Property, Jason Ellis Anderson May 1998

Philosophical Questions About The Ethics Of Intellectual Property, Jason Ellis Anderson

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

Intellectual Property can be divided into two broad categories, Patents and Copyrights or Trade Secrets. Trade Secrets as it nomenclature suggests are secrets kept for some economic reason. The classic example of a Trade Secret is the Coca-Cola formula. This formula has been the foundation of its empire yet is only protected by its right to secrecy. Trade Secret justifications are fairly clear and based on the right of privacy and personal autonomy. The key difference between Trade Secrets and Patents/Copyrights are that Patents or Copyrights are accessible to the public. Trade Secrets are required to be inaccessible and non-disclosed.

Cut To The Quick: Lorena Bobbitt And America Gender Ideology, Jessica Staheli May 1998

Cut To The Quick: Lorena Bobbitt And America Gender Ideology, Jessica Staheli

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

On the morning of June 23rd, 1993, Lorena Bobbitt severed her husband's penis with a kitchen carving knife, literally enacting the old myth of women as castrators. America reacted to Lorena's and her husband John's situation first with horror and then with humor. Soon after the attack was made public, jokes and commentaries proliferated on television and in magazines, journals, and newspapers. Because Americans were so shocked by Lorena's action, they scrambled to represent and explain it in a manner that made the act morally comprehensible. Looking at interviews, jokes, commentaries, and John's subsequent career in pornography reveals the specific …


Ailing Hearts, Go Home: Ethnographic Storytelling And The Levels Of Experience, Bryan D. Tilt May 1998

Ailing Hearts, Go Home: Ethnographic Storytelling And The Levels Of Experience, Bryan D. Tilt

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

I visited Primary Children's Medical Center on a fresh snow morning near the beginning of last winter. The hospital was not where it had been in my childhood, a quiet neighborhood in "the avenues" section of Salt Lake City; several years ago the hospital moved to a new location farther east on the Wasatch Mountain foothills, near the University of Utah Medical Center. The old brick building now sits sedate and empty at the top of a shaded hill. My memory of the old hospital is as a bright and oppressive place, full of the stuff of life and death. …


Diego Rivera In The United States: "Working From Within The Enemy Camp", Sarahí Dehesa-Avelar May 1998

Diego Rivera In The United States: "Working From Within The Enemy Camp", Sarahí Dehesa-Avelar

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

The most notorious twentieth-century Mexican artist and politician, Diego Rivera, stepped up to the international pedestal of art in the late 1920s. Recognized for his revival of mural painting and undeniable compositional skill, the middle-aged Rivera was crowned a Michelangelo of modern art by artists, intellectuals, and admirers of the time. When Rivera traveled to the United States to show off his peacock's tail, the American media also participated readily in the servile flattery of the Mexican master. Yet, as was evident in print media, Rivera's art was revered more for its technical ability to depict Mexico and its culture, …


Show And Tell: The Biases Of Plutarch And Euripides, Annalee Tyler May 1998

Show And Tell: The Biases Of Plutarch And Euripides, Annalee Tyler

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

It can be said that there is no such thing as an unbiased viewpoint. For a newspaper columnist, a politician, or a radio talk-show host, this is good news. But for the historian, it proves to be somewhat problematic. Is it possible to gain an accurate view of the facts if there is, essentially, no such thing? Most history is written by the victors, the conquerors who wish to glorify themselves and their cause. Where is the record for the lower classes, women, and children? Even those who purport to be impartial have views that are colored by their backgrounds, …


Looking Through A Paradox An Environmental History Of Two Mormon Communities, Jenna Howick Tilt May 1998

Looking Through A Paradox An Environmental History Of Two Mormon Communities, Jenna Howick Tilt

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

"Nature is both powerfully attractive and powerfully repellent,"1 describes the "Western Paradox" as it was first described by Donald Worster in his Under the Western Skies: The West has been an American symbol of independence, equality and self-preservation from its earliest day, but that freedom had a price. The scarcity of water in the arid West shackled these free spirited adventurers as they became slaves to canals, dams and irrigation ditches.2 Their natural spirit seemed to be defied by the world of technology and machines, which they sought to leave behind by coming West. Yet, by coming to …
