Crítica Cultural, Literatura Y Rock: La Novela Guatemalteca Y Las Culturas Juveniles En Latinoamérica, Claudia Ferman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Si la literatura guatemalteca ha logrado ocupar un espacio importante en los debates críticos de los últimos años lo ha hecho desde una masa textual extremadamente acotada. El territorio total de su producción literaria ha permanecido como un motivo de reflexión sólo para especialistas, y a que contexto político, condiciones de la industria editorial y panorama educativo, han conspirado contra toda difusión más general de esa producción. Si esta literatura se lee y se analiza fragmentariamente, tampoco encuentra fuertes coherencias internas que aglutinen a sus productores y/o críticos. En ese contexto, es interesante que el escritor Mario Alberto Carrera haya …

Turbio Fondeadero: Política E Ideología En La Poética Neobarrosa De Osvaldo Lamborghini Y Néstor Perlongher, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

En la poética de Osvaldo Lamborghini y Néstor Perlongher no son los barcos, como dice el tango, los que van a recalar en el fangoso y turbio Río de la Plata, sino cuerpos que, arrastrados, tapados y penetrados por las corrientes arcillosas, no pueden escapar a las transformaciones que les inflige una marea oscura, desconocida. Esta metáfora podría referirse al destino de las miles de víctimas del terrorismo de estado practicado por la última dictadura militar argentina (1976-1983); podría explicar el uso del lenguaje en la poesía de ambos escritores, o aludir a un modo de entender el sujeto que, …

Childhood Trauma And Its Reverberations In Bebe Moore Campbell's Your Blues Ain't Like Mine, Suzanne W. Jones

English Faculty Publications

Novelist Bebe Moore Campbell was only five when Emmett Till was murdered on August 28, 1955. But in Your Blues Ain't Like Mine (1992) she seeks to answer the question that black teenagers in Mississippi, and indeed many people from all over the United States, asked after seeing the photograph of Till's mutilated and bloated body: "How could they do that to him? He's only a boy" (Dittmer 58). Campbell embraces the view that Lillian Smith expressed in Killers of the Dream (1949): "The warped, distorted frame we have put around every Negro child from birth is around every white …

The French Faulkner: Vision, Instrumentality, And Sanctuary's 'Lake Of Ink', Peter Lurie

English Faculty Publications

Like Edgar Allan Poe and the American film noir, William Faulkner enjoyed a critical reception in France that anticipated his American audience by several years. While not the first critics to admire Faulkner’s writing, readers like Maurice Coindreau, Andre Malraux, and Jean-Paul Sartre were among the earliest readers to recognize a particular quality to his fiction, one that, especially in the case of certain novels, evaded Faulkner’s contemporary American readers. As certain examples of this cross-cultural acceptance demonstrate, such as Baudelair’s translation of Poe in the nineteenth century and his exalting of Poe as a poetic genius, or Raymond …

Theorizing The Post-Soul Aesthetic: An Introduction, Bertram D. Ashe

English Faculty Publications

It's time. Clearly, it's time. As I begin this introduction, in the spring of 2006, landmark anniversaries press in on me from every side: 20 years ago, Greg Tate wrote "Cult-Nats Meet Freaky-Deke: the Return of the Black Aesthetic" for the Village Voice in the fall of 1986. And Spike Lee's She's Gotta Have It - that totemic post-soul anthem - was released in the summer of 1986, as well. More personally, I first taught Trey Ellis's essay "The New Black Aesthetic" in 1991,15 years ago, and I inaugurated my post-soul aesthetic course in the Spring semester of 1996 - …

Leaded: The Materiality And Metamorphosis Of Graphite, University Of Richmond Museums

Exhibition Brochures

Leaded: The Materiality and Metamorphosis of Graphite

August 23 to September 30, 2007

Joel and Lila Harnett Museum of Art

Introduction

In a sense it is highly appropriate that a university museum organize an exhibition about graphite. After all, the pencil is one of the essential tools in foundation drawing classes. In fact the pencil is perhaps the most familiar of all tools to students taking their first steps at making art, as opposed to charcoal or chalk, or the brush loaded with oil or watercolor. To others, the pencil and the graphite it holds symbolize the essence of …

Bedlam In Beirut: A British Perspective In 1826, Theophilus C. Prousis

History Faculty Research and Scholarship

Foreign consuls from European states compiled countless communiques about the state of the Ottoman Empire during the turbulent early nineteenth century, a period fraught with internal and external crises triggered by war, revolt, sectarian tension, the breakdown of once effective governing institutions, and European rivalries associated with the Eastern Question. Consular records offer firsthand information and a treasure trove of detail on economic, commercial, social, political, and military conditions in the Ottoman world. By relating specific incidents, episodes, and situations, eyewitness commentaries by consuls provide insight into urban and rural affairs and shed light on the human dimension of everyday …

The Application Of The "Revised Principle Of Alternate Possibilities" In A Causality Determined Universe, Nicholas Michaud

All Volumes (2001-2008)

According to Henry J. Frankfurt, the claim that “ought implies can” is taken by many philosophers as so foundational as to almost be considered an “a priori” truth. In his paper “Alternate Possibilities and Moral Responsibility,” Frankfurt challenges this assumption. He proposes the “revised principle of alternate possibilities,” asserting that we intuitively absolve agents of moral responsibility only if they act solely because they could not do otherwise. Ten years later, John Martin Fischer challenges Frankfurt’s claim, asserting that this cannot be the case if an agent exists within a universe governed by actual sequence causation and therefore, moral accountability …
