Deconstructing The Corrido's Validity: The Transformation Of The Corrido Into The Narcocorrido, Wayne D. Meals Dec 2007

Deconstructing The Corrido's Validity: The Transformation Of The Corrido Into The Narcocorrido, Wayne D. Meals

Theses & Dissertations

The classic corrido is a part of Mexican tradition and is woven into Mexico's rich cultural history. Listeners have endeared corridos for generations simply for the storytelling. They characterize small Mexican communities and their iconic heroes and represent the hope and courage that they must have in the face of injustice, oppression or danger. The protagonist in the corrido, commonly possessing the characteristics of Robin Hood, is a constant theme. This hero character also meets with an untimely death, usually the result of betrayal. The heightening of the element of conflict and violent death has transformed the classic corrido into …

The Politics Of Vodou: Aids, Access To Health Care And The Use Of Culture In Haiti, Catherine Benoît Dec 2007

The Politics Of Vodou: Aids, Access To Health Care And The Use Of Culture In Haiti, Catherine Benoît

Anthropology Faculty Publications

During the past few years, the AIDS campaign in Haiti has been targeting Vodou officiants and organizations. These awareness and training programmes in- form officiants about the transmission and prevention of AIDS, tests for HIV and anti- retroviral drugs, or even try to encourage them to become involved in a medical referral system. These culturalist interventions are grounded in an essentialist concept of culture that can have harmful effects on the targeted groups. The concept of culture underlying such interventions is deconstructed along with the categories of tradi- tional medicine and the ‘tradipractitioner’. An approach to public health is advocated …

A Student Parent, Mechele Timmons Dec 2007

A Student Parent, Mechele Timmons

Verbum

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

"Being a parent is one of the most important jobs a person can have. Few people would doubt that. The life you bring into this world may someday change the world ---for the better. Because of this, it is so important to give your children the tools to become caring, responsible adults. The choices I made to do this were simple. I wanted to be an active part of their lives, so I was a stay-at-home mother for the first 10+ years of both my children’s lives."

Inspire, Carolyn S. Vacca

Verbum

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

"Writing about inspiration is a daunting task, not the least because the word itself has been overused to the point of oblivion. The temptation to include wonderful anecdotes of kind acts is great, but seems somehow to just borrow others’ inspiration. Works of art, music and literature are described as “inspired,” as are our responses to them. Clothiers, the auto industry, even furnishing gurus claim inspiration as their products’ genesis. Even broadcast news is compelled to include inspiring moments for their viewers by highlighting members of the community (or …

Verbum

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

"The search for his name took almost the entire pregnancy. My husband Joe and I had discussed, thought over, and imagined over a dozen names for the little one that was to make us a family of three. One website simply described “Massimo” as an Italian name that derived from the Latin name “Maximus” and that translated to “Max” in English. Another website stated that “Massimo” meant “remarkable”. When Massimo was finally born, we grew to appreciate (and still do every day) how fitting his name and its meaning …
