'Everything Looks Different Up Close': Perception In Margaret Atwood's Oryx And Crake And The Year Of The Flood, Jennifer Leora Nessel Cassidy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In the first two books of her MaddAdam series (a projected trilogy), Margaret Atwood explores a series of events from three very different perspectives. A close reading of the two texts suggests that the specific focalizers chosen, and their very different ways of perceiving the world around them, are central issues in the novels. In Oryx and Crake, Atwood establishes the apocalypse as a problem of dystopian vision through the book's deeply flawed focalizer. In The Year of the Flood two alternative visions are offered in order to rehabilitate the perceptual problems of the first text. In the three …

Issues in Religion and Psychotherapy

Lane Fischer’s discussion of the nature of law in Turning Freud Upside Down (2005) describes tolerance as the combination of understanding, acceptance, and invitation to do better.

Review Of The Baker Who Pretended To Be King Of Portugal By Ruth Mackay, Christine Garst-Santos

School of American and Global Studies Faculty Publications with a Focus on Modern Languages and Global Studies

In this captivating study of the interdependent realms of fact and fiction, Ruth MacKay explores an episode in early modern Iberian history that could easily be found alongside any of the intercalated tales in Cervantes’s Don Quixote: that of an itinerant pastalero, or baker, who pretended to be the long lost King Sebastian of Portugal. Sorting through the letters, chronicles, and inquisitorial documents of troubled monarchs, conspiring nobles, and restless religious, MacKay weaves together an impressive array of Spanish and Portuguese archival sources to re-create the conspiracy that surfaced in the Castilian town of Madrigal de las Altas Torres in …

Belief Is Not Experience: Transformation As A Tool For Bridging The Ontological Divide In Anthropological Research And Reporting, Bonnie Glass-Coffin

International Journal of Transpersonal Studies

For more than a hundred years, anthropologists have recorded stories of beliefs in other-than-human sentience and consciousness, yet we have most frequently insisted on contextualizing these stories in terms of cultural, epistemological, or ontological relativism. In this paper, I ask why we have had such a hard time taking reports of unseen realms seriously and describe the transformative role of personal experience as a catalyst for change in anthropological research and reporting.

The 'Sister Kingdom' On Display: Ireland In The Space Of The British Exhibition, 1851-1911, Elizabeth Allen

History Honors Projects

British exhibitions of the nineteenth and early twentieth century were spaces that, through the display of colonial objects, promoted European, and specifically British, supremacy. During this period, Ireland occupied a unique position, and after the Act of Union in 1800 it was both a colonized space and a part of the United Kingdom. Through the analysis of seven exhibitions, this paper aims to examine the representation of the Irish in these public and often contested spaces. Ultimately, due to a number of individual agents who utilized the exhibition in order to fulfill a variety of conflicting goals, the narrative of …
