Doing It For The Love Of It: Weaving Lives In A Community Of Learners, Maryann Felps
Doing It For The Love Of It: Weaving Lives In A Community Of Learners, Maryann Felps
The Utah English Journal
Robert Frost said that "what is done is done for the love of it - or not really done at all." This past school year at the non-public school where I work something was done for "the love of it" and served to create a community of learners whose lives became successfully interwoven. What follows is a description of this community, how it was originally developed, how it progressed, and what resulted at the conclusion of its ten-month existence.

"What Do I Do With This One?": Teaching Esl Writers Who Have Been Mainstreamed, Todd Heyden
The Utah English Journal
With the addition of non-native speakers in their courses, teachers may find that their job description also includes the teaching of ESL writing. "What do I do with this one?" is a question I commonly hear from concerned colleagues. Understandably, they want to know how to best meet the needs of the ESL writers who have been mainstreamed into their Pope John XXIII courses. At the top of the list of their concerns is error correction. An ESL writer's essay can contain a myriad of errors, even in just a single sentence. Where does one begin to address so many …
Imagine Lunch, Susan Grandfield
Imagine Lunch, Susan Grandfield
The Utah English Journal
The high school where I teach houses many vending machines. A vending machine resides in every comer of the school known to me, and I think there are some machines in areas that I don't frequent. It's a big school, after all. Kids can buy candy, hot and spicy chips that tum their tongues red, Pop-Tarts, Pepsi (not Coke, though) and a variety of other so-called foods, none of which have nutritional value. Kids without much money have discovered a machine with a large pastry called a "Big Texas" (as in "I got me my Big Texas") for 65 cents. …
Bargaining In Two Languages: Conversational Functions Of Transactional Code-Switching, Lotfi Sayahi
Bargaining In Two Languages: Conversational Functions Of Transactional Code-Switching, Lotfi Sayahi
Languages, Literatures and Cultures Faculty Scholarship
Studies on the pragmatic functions of code-switching, in opposition to its macro sociolinguistic significance or syntactic structure, have been largely influenced by Gumperz's pioneering classification presented in the chapter he dedicated to this topic in his 1982 book, Discourse strategies. Many other taxonomies followed Gumperz's initial proposal (Appel and Muysken 1987, Poplack 1988, Romaine 1989, Heller 1992) in spite of the usually claimed difficulty in interpreting and predicting the exact functions of code-switching in any given bilingual context. Their purpose has been to identify the sociopragmatic motivation for the occurrence of a particular code-switched utterance and ultimately classify it under …

西砲的應用與明代的國防, Ka Wing Yiu
西砲的應用與明代的國防, Ka Wing Yiu
Dissertations from all years
踏入明代中葉,隨著歐洲人東來,西砲亦相繼傳入中國。鑒於自身火砲素質不佳,加上外患日亟——日本、滿洲、蒙古等外族皆對中土虎視眈眈,尤以東北女真為最大的威脅,屢次大破明軍。在這危急存亡之秋,引進先進的西砲成為了明季增強國防力量的重要法門。當中影響較大的有佛郎機砲和紅夷砲,它們的傳入曾掀起國內仿製之風,頗受重視。
明廷大臣汪鋐(1466-1536)、徐光啟(1562-1633)、李之藻(1565-1630)等在接觸來華歐人的同時,分別獲悉佛郎機砲及紅夷砲威力之鉅,先後向朝廷推薦並引進之,以圖強化國防力量,抵抗外侮。戚繼光(1528-1587)、孫承宗(1563-1638)、袁崇煥(1584-1630)等將領,更將之運用於軍隊編制或實戰中,成就斐然。本文將以 此兩種西砲為論述範圍,淺論它們傳入的經過,以及明廷的仿製及明軍的應用,並旁述它們在明季對日本與後金戰爭中的成效。
誠然,對西砲在華影響的研究,前人論述頗多,成果有目共睹。拙文旨在選取若干明代史料,配合不同學者的研究成果,冀能在佛郎機砲及紅夷砲的基礎上,為明代後期西砲的應用及影響,作一綜合及宏觀的分析。

賈平凹小說的城鄉嬗變 : 從《商州三錄》、《廢都》、《土門》到《懷念狼》, Chung Yin Cheung
Dissertations from all years
中國現代化城市的興起,作家的想像地域不再限於鄉土,城市的繁華、喧囂、熱鬧,為他們提供一個新的敘述空間。但無論是魯迅的紹興、沈從文的湘西,以至莫言的高密東北鄉、賈平凹的商州,那怕城市如何誘人,中國作家看來從未忘卻鄉土,鄉土仍是他們念茲在茲的敘述對象,也是他們安身立命的所在。相比之下,城市被想像成罪惡淵藪,與象徵純樸的鄉村形成對立的局面。
陝西作家賈平凹以寫「商州」系列作品知名於當代文壇。商州即今陝西南部,也是賈平凹的故鄉。自《商州三錄》始,他以述說故鄉人事風貌、山川美景,展現鄉土的美好的風土人情,成為八十年代初尋根文學的一名健將。《浮躁》以後,他力圖改變創作路向,不局限於鄉土抒寫,他以久居城市的鄉下人身份書寫城市,觀察、論述城鄉的變化、現象,一時成績頗為可觀。
城市與鄉村既是賈平凹小說的主要論述對象,他對於城鄉,或是批判,或是感嘆,或是歌頌,牽引著文本對城市、鄉村的想像。本文試以賈平凹的四部作品《商州三錄》(一九八三)、《廢都》(一九九三)、《土門》(一九九六)、《懷念狼》(二零零零)為主要的研究文本,輔以他的其他小說,以文本細讀的方法,及結合作者的生平,分析他在小說中如何論述城市、鄉村,並試圖梳理賈平凹筆下的城鄉關係的轉變,及把他的城鄉論述置於文學史角度觀看其傳承。本文無意探究賈平凹小說中敘述的城市、鄉村的情況、面貌,與現實中的城鄉之異同,也不會討論小說中的城鄉與社會之間的關連,我所關心的只是作者在作品中怎樣論述城鄉關係,城鄉在文本中的相互對話,並希望以文學史角度觀看他的城鄉論述的傳承,由此探看鄉土文學在中國現代、當代文學中能「香火不斷」的獨特現象。

Lambs Of A Foreign God: Christianity In African-American Literature, Maryam F. Mujahid
Theses & Honors Papers
This thesis examines the way that Christianity was used as a method to integrate African slaves into American culture. “For many slaves, it was their conversion to Christianity that was the ultimate and final separation from their African heritage.” Postbellum African American poets had to decide if they wanted to assimilate into American culture through Christianity or embrace their African roots.
