Forcing Freedom: Applying Mill's Principles Of Liberty In An International Society, Jill Zimmerman

Episteme

The author extends Mill’s liberty theory to contemporary international politics, specifically in relation to liberal intervention theory. The author tries to interpret Mill in the spirit of some popular liberal theories, but argues for why such an interpretation, which draws an analogy between the role of an individual and the role of a state’s government, would not be supported by Mill himself. For Mill, the individual is the central moral force, which is not simply in an appeal to prevent against harm toward a particular entity (as with looking-out for one particular nation among many in the international community). Even …

Nietzsche's Eternal Recurrence As A Psychological Test Of Action, Micah Dugas

Episteme

How ought we to make sense of the doctrine of eternal recurrence? First of all, it follows Nietzsche’s attack on traditional morality, and is an answer to the question: What takes the place of immortality in a world in which God is Dead? But the doctrine is not meant to be a metaphysical hypothesis—such a thing would be at odds with Nietzsche’s thoughts on memory, choice, and the “laws” of nature. Nor is it dogmatic or like Kant’s Categorical Imperative. Rather, “eternal recurrence” is meant to help serve the powerful human who is not like the rest of society—the overman. …

Provoking New Questions At Richmond National Battlefield Park, Kaylyn L. Sawyer

The Gettysburg Compiler: On the Front Lines of History

he first time I ever gave an interpretive tour was two years ago at the Virginia Museum of the Civil War in New Market, Virginia about a farmhouse that was in the midst of the fighting. My supervisor told me to make the house a home. Her advice to make a human connection between visitors and the past has influenced my style of interpretation, and I have carried it through other various internships including my time this summer at Richmond National Battlefield Park. While working in Richmond, I have been challenged, and challenged visitors, to think differently about the conflicts …

Reigniting The Firebrand Heart, Melanie Springer Mock

Faculty Publications - Department of English

Excerpt: "From the very first pages of her memoir, Assimilate or Go Home, I felt an affinity with D.L. Mayfield. Perhaps I recognized my students in Mayfield’s idealism and innocence, a missionary fervor that burns brightly in many undergraduates who attend Christian universities like the one where I teach. Perhaps I saw in her narrative my own youthful firebrand heart when, as a senior in college, I longed to get arrested protesting injustice; imagined sitting in a jail, even, believing such activism would show how deeply my convictions ran and how ardently I loved Jesus."

What If The South Had Won The Civil War? 4 Sci-Fi Scenarios For Hbo's 'Confederate', Allen C. Guelzo

Civil War Era Studies Faculty Publications

“What if” has always been the favorite game of Civil War historians. Now, thanks to David Benioff and D.B. Weiss — the team that created HBO’s insanely popular Game of Thrones — it looks as though we’ll get a chance to see that “what if” on screen. Their new project, Confederate, proposes an alternate America in which the secession of the Southern Confederacy in 1861 actually succeeds. It is a place where slavery is legal and pervasive, and where a new civil war is brewing between the divided sections. (excerpt)

Music, Politics, And Sociality: Ethnic Tensions And The Performance Of Gikuyu Nationalism, Peter Njagi Mwangi

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

This thesis examines how some selected Gikuyu popular music propagates ethnic tensions in Kenya by promoting Gikuyu nationalism at the expense of Kenyan nationalism. This music derives its themes from the historical period of the Mau Mau armed struggle against British colonists and connects this struggle with everyday experiences of the Gikuyu people. Memory and the performance of everyday life in this music solidifies the Gikuyu community as tied to a common destiny and distances other Kenyan communities from this destiny. The music consolidates Gikuyu ethnic nationalism and authenticates the position of the community as superior and a dominant force …

Living Lore: B. A. Botkin, Folklore, And The State, Kirby Little

Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

This digital project explores government surveillance and political action through folklore. The project focuses on the unpublished essay of folklorist Benjamin Botkin titled “Progress: Negroes and Everybody, From Folk Tale to Science Fiction.” Botkin was a prominent academic in his field, and created the theoretical approach to folklore he termed “applied folklore.” Botkin’s approach to folklore gained considerable attention, both positive and negative, due to his unique emphasis on the present time and the ever-changing nature of folklore, and his politicization of folklore as a method for uniting working class citizens. For decades, Botkin was under clandestine surveillance by the …

馬其昶《毛詩學》析論, Man Lung Chong

Lingnan Theses

馬其昶(1855-1930)，字通白(又作通伯)，晚年號抱潤翁，安徽桐城人，清末民初著名學者。早年以古文名，晚歲殫治群經子史，旁及內典，有桐城派「殿軍」之稱。其著《毛詩學》因晚清經學衰微，加之珠玉在前，以往較少學者研究，然不失為一部《毛詩》學的總成之作。本文以此書作為研究對象，內容計有以下數端：一、通伯著書或有異名，或有異卷。本文先考《毛詩學》版本，繼而剖析體例，簡介成書背景及撰寫架構。二、歷來《詩》說紛紜，馬氏既以《毛詩》為宗，其於《詩經》學的重要問題必有傾向。本文擇取並析述書中部分觀點，窺探通伯對於《詩經》學部分問題的基本立場。三、陳漢章(1864-1938)謂「蓋此書出而經學可息爭矣」，此書實有功於《毛詩》學。筆者先比較《毛詩學》與清代《詩經》新疏三大家之撰述理念，從而了解《毛詩學》對同朝《毛詩》學派的繼承和相異之處。次而略舉《毛詩學》說詩條例，尤重比對此書與清代新疏之說法，考察此書釋《詩》具體方式和特點，並從徵引、釋詞、辨音、明句，以至撰述理念等角度，評述其按語獨到、可取，或誤解之處。四、由其書至其人，延伸馬氏著成此書的學術淵源。試從《毛詩學》具體思想傾向與特點，推論背後形成因素，論及此書與桐城派學術觀之關係。

Marking Stress Explicitly In Written English Fosters Rhythm In The Reader’S Inner Voice, Jennifer Gross, Bo Winegard, Andrea Plotkowski

Open Access Publishing Support Funded Articles

Spoken English has a stress-alternating rhythm that is not marked in its orthography. In two experiments, the authors evaluated whether stylistic alterations to print that marked stress pulses fostered the rendering of rhythm (experiment 1) and stress (experiment 2) during silent reading. In experiment 1, silent readers rated the helpfulness of the stylistic alterations appearing in the last line of poems. In experiment 2, silent readers rated the helpfulness of the stylistic alterations appearing in heteronyms embedded in prose. As predicted by linguistic theories, when the stylistic alterations mapped onto the rhythmic pulses of the poems, and the lexically stressed …

Invention, Integration, And Engagement With/In An Engineering Student Organization, Brian Hendrickson

English Language and Literature ETDs

This dissertation draws from a three-year study of writing and rhetorical engagement in an engineering student organization at a university in the southwestern United States. I describe how students in the organization use writing to undertake a water quality program in an indigenous territory in Bolivia. I describe the student organization as a boundary-zone activity between its parent organization, the college of engineering, and its community and non-governmental organization partners. I provide a narrative of the organization as a site of rhetorical engagement, from the beginnings of the water quality program in 2007, through a 2014 partnership with a capstone …
