Sans Hommes, On N’Est Pas Rien”: Defying Patriarchy And Reclaiming Voices In Les Rivières, Warisara E. Sawin

Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture

This article explores Jennifer Solheim’s conceptualization of “the call to listen” in postcolonial Francophone cultural production, as she argues for the importance of engaging with and responding to immigrant and minority narratives within this cultural milieu. This article further explores the dynamic relationship between media consumption and artistic creation, specifically the innovative realms of “accented” and “intercultural” cinema that have emerged from the conditions of globalization and migration. The unique cinematic languages of these forms convey the intricate experiences of those living in exile or as part of post-migratory populations.

An in-depth analysis is presented on Mai Hua’s documentary Les …

Noches Lúgubres De Cadalso: De Lúgubre A Salubre, José Sarzi Amade

Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture

Noches lúgubres (1789), de José Cadalso, es, a primera vista, un modelo inaugural del Romanticismo español por los arquetipos del género que presenta. Lo atestiguan en el texto el despecho amoroso, el acceso de sensibilidad, el culto a la muerte y la locura del protagonista, Tediato, en su demencial empeño por desenterrar el cadáver putrefacto de quien perdió. Sin embargo, aunque todos los ingredientes de lo lúgubre están aquí presentes, la obra posee también una dimensión más sutil. El personaje de Tediato evoluciona desde la más profunda desesperación hasta la madurez y la aceptación del sufrimiento como algo universal. Esta …

Employing an intriguing literary technique, Picó initiates the narrative with the general's death, paving the way to explore the events surrounding the political landscape of the time. Drawing inspiration from Voltaire, the author employs a methodology that reflects …

L’Ex-Centrisme Du Personnage Juif Dans Le Roman Québécois, Marcin Janczak

Vernacular: New Connections in Language, Literature, & Culture

Les protagonistes juifs dans les œuvres littéraires québécoises peuvent être qualifiés à ce que Hutcheon désigne comme « ex-centrique » (HUTCHEON, 2002). Appartenant à la marge, le personnage ex-centrique possède une identité complexe qui n’est jamais univoque. Comme l’énumère Janet Paterson, le répertoire du personnage de l’Autre dans le roman québécois est organisé en fonction des catégories suivantes : race et nationalités, étranger qui arrive dans un village, identité sexuelle, religion et santé mentale (PATERSON, 2004). À la recherche de soi, les marginaux ne cherchent pas la vérité sur eux-mêmes à travers une seule conscience, mais, comme le signale Mikhaïl …

The Benefits Of Singing And Audiation For Beginning Musicians, Elissa Harris

Graduate Research Showcase

This literature review explores the impact of audiation and singing on the aural sensitivity of novice musicians, shedding light on the fundamental role of these processes in music education. Audiation, the cognitive ability to internally hear and understand music, and singing, as an active manifestation of audiation, are integral components of musical development. However, their precise influence on the development of aural sensitivity in beginners remains understudied.

Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and empirical investigation, this review seeks to uncover the relationship between audiation, singing, and the enhancement of aural skills among novice musicians. Furthermore, the literature review …

Uplifting The Critical Value Of The Lgbtq+ Climate Workforce, San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative, Brenda Castruita, Nicole Fassina

San Diego Regional Climate Collaborative

As the world faces unprecedented environmental challenges, the need for a robust and diverse environmental workforce has never been more critical. Historically, marginalized communities are at the forefront of these challenges and often bear the brunt of impacts from our changing climate. It is vital that the climate workforce reflects the diversity of our communities and is inclusive of individuals with lived experiences that can inform equitable and effective solutions. Among these marginalized communities, the LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer or Questioning, and others) community is particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.¹ Research underscores how LGBTQ+ individuals …

Rogers, Arkansas: The Impact Of The Frisco, Jeffrey Weaver

ATU Theses and Dissertations 2021 - Present

The second American railroad revolution transformed areas like Benton County, Arkansas, from rural farmland to urbanized cities. The railroad provided affordable transportation during the period called the New South. The railroad sparked the agricultural boom in Rogers, sending millions of apples and other agricultural goods to surrounding states. By 1900, Benton County had produced more apples than any other county in the country, elevating Rogers to one of the leading shipping hubs in Northwest Arkansas. The population increased by double-digit percentages, resetting the settlement dynamics of Benton County. In turn, the small town with a robust economy created a sensation …

Lgbt Cultural Competence Education For Nurse Leaders In A Large Metropolitan Healthcare System: Quality Improvement, Trevor Mcguffin, Andrew Mitchell

Doctor of Nursing Practice Papers

Background: In the United States, seven percent of adults identify as LGBT. The LGBT population is disproportionately affected by health disparities and barriers to care when compared to the cis-heterosexual population. Due to healthcare providers’ limited LGBT health education and experience, inconsistencies in LGBT culturally competent care perpetuate health disparities and barriers to care for the LGBT population.

Purpose: The purpose of this quality improvement project was to educate nurse leaders on LGBT cultural competency and facilitate nurse leaders’ behavior change.

Methods: This quality improvement project consisted of three LGBT cultural competence modules and two guided behavior change pathways. Outcomes …

Wildlife Conservation: The Importance Of Individual Personality Traits And Sentience, Karen A. Owens, Gosia Bryja, Marc Bekoff

Animal Sentience

Individual differences in personality types within the same species have been studied much less than differences between species and populations. Personality differences are related to risk-taking and exploration, which in turn correlate with individuals' daily responses, decisions, and fitness. Bold and shy personality types can have different advantages and disadvantages under different social or environmental pressures. Analyzing personality differences has helped clarify how elk habituate to a well-populated area and how management strategies can be adapted to them. For wolves newly repatriated to Colorado, individual personality factors are likely to prove important for adapting to their new homes as well …

“There Is A Woman Concerned In This”: Female Gender Roles In The Novels And Adaptations Of Agatha Christie, Carrie Y. Hess

Waldo Library Student Exhibits

Throughout my dissertation, I analyze what Agatha Christie's 1934 Murder on the Orient Express and 1937 Death on the Nile and their 1970s and 2000s feature film adaptations suggest about the roles of mothers, female friends, and lovers. The underlying issue I speak to is how these texts, working off of a similar storyline, speak differently to these roles, especially when analyzed across time. Several key questions guiding my research and writing include: What does it mean to be a mother? Is she a savior, an avenger, or both? How does the violence associated with the one reconcile with the …

Carrying Meaning, Bridging Worlds: Indigenous Language Localization In Western Courts, Nora K. Rivera

English Faculty Articles and Research

This work examines the localization practices of Indigenous court interpreters through prototyping and analyzing legal glossaries in eight Indigenous languages from the State of Oaxaca, Mexico. These languages are often needed in Mexican courts and immigration court hearings in the United States. Thus, examining the localization praxes of the court interpreters who use them can provide important intercultural technical and professional communication insights in global contexts. I compare the preliminary results of this ongoing study with the court interpreters' code of ethics from the State of California to demonstrate how Western court assumptions about language interpretation cause gaps between worldviews. …

Basil Bunting And The Challenges Of Literary Translation From Persian Into English: A Case Of Rūdhakī, Emadeddin Naghipour

Languages and Cultures Publications

The purpose of this study is to analyze Basil Bunting's literary translation. It turns to the theories of translation by Steiner, Benjamin, and Eco, among others, to study Bunting’s translation of Rūdhakī’s ‘Dandaniyyeh’ poem, a 10th century qaṣīdah replete with mesmerizing musicality and with a form galvanized in its originating language, time, and locale. A deep contrastive analysis of its translation into English by the poet, Bunting, shows the difficulties that can arise from literal translations of classical Persian poetry.

Enhancing Art & Creative Expression Engagement In An Inpatient Pediatric Setting, Aileen Bolosan, Susan Macdermott

Summer 2024 OTD Capstone Symposium

The purpose of this capstone project is to enhance art and creative expressive engagement within an inpatient pediatric setting. A primary focus for occupational therapy in children’s hospitals is on activities of daily living and other tasks associated with independent living (O’Brien & Kuhaneck, 2020). Creative activities such as art have been historically used throughout occupational therapy, however, the use of art and creative expression has declined in recent decades (Müllersdorf & Ivarsson, 2016). The presented capstone project focused on developing a culturally responsive, trauma-informed, occupation-based, art-focused program in an inpatient pediatric setting for children and families by integrating and …
