Military Terror And Silence In Brazil, 1910-1945, Shawn Smallman

International & Global Studies Faculty Publications and Presentations

Throughout the twentieth century, the Brazilian military has gone to great lengths to conceal its use of terror. The armed forces have kidnapped journalists, censored newspapers, and threatened authors. Such censorship and silencing have not only limited criticism from powerful social groups, but have also enabled the military to defend political myths that are in its interest. To date, however, few scholars have carefully examined military terror in Brazil, although testimonials abound. In order to better understand this phenomenon, consequently, this study examines two specific cases of military terror in Brazil, and the armed forces' efforts to silence or shape …

Alienation And The Motif Of The Unlived Life In Liu Heng's Fiction, Birgit Linder

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

Critics have long argued that alienation is the essence of modern culture. Having long served as a theme in literature that profoundly reflects the changes and challenges of modernity, alienation has, after a hiatus of a few decades, undergone a conceptual resurgence during the 1990’s as recent research in the West indicates a correlation with the phenomenon of postmodernity. With the breakdown of communism in vast parts of the world and the development toward pluralistic societies, the field of human possibilities has expanded considerably and the response thereof demands, therefore, a new definition of alienation. If previously alienation signified the …

Eileen Chang And Cinema, Ou Fan, Leo Lee

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

The death of Eileen Chang on September 8, 1995 in Los Angeles made headlines in all the Chinese newspapers. In the Chinese-speaking areas of Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Mainland China, a veritable cult of mystique has been built around her by both public media and the large number of her fans (who called themselves Chang-mi or "Chang-fans”). However, in the last twenty-three years of her life Chang lived quietly and incognito in Los Angeles, shunning all social contact and escaping publicity by constantly changing her residences in numerous hotels, motels, and small apartment houses until her death in an obscure …

海軍與護法運動(1917 – 1923), Wai Ki Fung

Dissertations from all years

本文主要是論述1917-1923 年聞發生的護法運動與海軍的關係。在長達六年的護法運動中，海軍扮演了一個非常重要的角色。從研究得知，海軍與護法運動的關係是錯綜複雜的，一方面海軍既是支持護法運動的重要力量，另一方面，它往往又是護法運動失敗的主因。故本人希望在本文中探討海軍在軍事、政治上如何影響護法運動，及分析海軍與護法運動的關係為何。

護法運動為我國近代史上的大事，是一次反對北洋軍閥專政、維護臨時約法的全國性運動，意義深遠。自海軍於1917 年南下護法後，它便反覆參予與叛離護法行列，徘徊於護法與附逆之間，海軍的取向對護法運動的成敗有關鍵性的作用。故此本文將分述海軍在六年的護法運動中，在政治、軍事上對護法運動的影響，以及它在第一次和第二次護法運動，以及護法護動結束時所起的作用。

從成長角度「閱讀」Beyond樂隊歌詞, Pak Shing Fan

Dissertations from all years

從1986年起，Beyond樂隊的幾位成員(不包括88 年離隊的劉志遠)均堅持創作，儘管黃家駒於93年離世，但黃家強、黃貫中和葉世榮並沒有因此放棄，經歷十五個年頭，他們所的作品，隨著歲月而自趨成熟。

雖然Beyond也找劉卓輝、小美、林夕、黃偉文等人幫忙寫詞，而〈大地〉、〈長城〉、〈情人〉、〈真的愛你〉和〈預備〉等不少流行作品，亦非Beyond幾位成員所寫，但他們親自填詞的歌曲還是佔多數。不談Beyond 的國語、英語及其他語言歌曲，只算1986年來推出之粵語歌曲，總數為182首，其中由他們所創作或有份參與填詞的，共有113首，佔全部歌曲百分之六十二。

Beyond樂隊的音樂歷程，跟西方成長小說模式，儘有相似之處。他們大著膽子，闖進主流樂壇二，恰如成長小說中，年青主角跨入社會，經歷種種磨練，心智與情感漸漸成熟過來。從Beyond幾位成員之創作方向和內容裏，可發現他們成長所留下的痕跡。本文之目的，乃嘗試從他們的歌詞探索其成長之心路歷程。

本文前言部分，主要回顧香港過去的樂隊朝流發展，以及介紹Beyond樂隊的崛起和發展，為討論提供一點背景資料。按著，本文把他們所創作的歌曲，分作三個主越來討論：其一，自我的成長；其二，成長中的惰；其三，對社會的認識。最後為全文之總結。誠然，Beyond的作品中，有時候不只集中寫個主題，因此，上面的分類純粹為了方便行文討論，不當之處在所難免，讀者請見諒。

The Church Of Mulletology, Michael Mckennedy

Whittier Scholars Program

In this project I aim to give a heuristic account of the punk and underground music scene’s relationship to the phenomenon known as the mullet. I do not intend to construct profile of Mullet identity,” nor is this an attempt to understand the Psychology of the mullet,” nor is this an attempt to understand the Psychology of the mullet. The mullet hairstyle exists in many forms. It can be found women, on cowboys, and generally throughout all sectors of society. But I don’t actually look at the mullet itself at all. I look at how mullet humor is constructed in …

Nichiren’S Risshō Ankoku Ron And Canon Formation, William E. Deal

Faculty Scholarship

Regardless of his own stated purpose or expected outcome for the Risshõ ankoku ron, one of Nichiren’s accomplishments in writing this treatise was the articulation of a canon, that is, a list of texts that were deemed true and authoritative from his perspective, as distinguished from other writings that were not. This essay explores the process of canon formation in Nichiren Buddhism, focusing on the structure and argument of the Risshõ ankoku ron. Noting five notions present in the process of canon formation, namely, selectivity, hierarchy, closure, orthodoxy, and legitimation, it examines the particular way these elements are manifest in …
