Transcendence Of Familial Expectations In Alison Bechdel’S Graphic Novels, Anna Priore
Transcendence Of Familial Expectations In Alison Bechdel’S Graphic Novels, Anna Priore
Honors Projects
This thesis focuses on the graphic novels "Are You My Mother?" and "Fun Home" by Alison Bechdel. I discuss the ways in which Bechdel highlights her own family’s atypical structure and how the ambiguous presentation of familial roles causes readers to see that being in a “queer” family is actually ordinary, just as being in an “ordinary” family is queer.

An Idol Of The Old Errors, Amy Kaye Lafferty
An Idol Of The Old Errors, Amy Kaye Lafferty
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
This work is a collection of short stories exploring the religious, social, psychological, and relational consequences of territory and isolation. Though not necessarily within the same world, they are set in modern times and exemplify similar commentaries on religious structures in rural, Midwestern America.
Ship Of Fools, Kevin Grzybowski
Ship Of Fools, Kevin Grzybowski
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
In this collection of stories, the absurd deterritorializes characters, plots, and ideologies throughout a combination of full-length narratives and flash fiction. In the process of reterritorialization, new meaning is added to archetypical narratives (The Bible's creation myth) and to familiar characters (the impoverished man, the cruel industrialist). Through these narratives, humanity is explored through unconventional means as characters find themselves at odds with supernatural forces, whether it be reincarnation, interaction with deities, or being haunted by the grotesque rat king. While this is a far cry from realism, the absurdism allows the reader unusual ways of seeing the same world.
Breaking Expectations: Deviations From Genre, Gender, And Social Order In The Clerk's And The Merchant's Tales, Rachel Lea Combs
Breaking Expectations: Deviations From Genre, Gender, And Social Order In The Clerk's And The Merchant's Tales, Rachel Lea Combs
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
Breaking Expectations: Deviations from Genre, Gender, and Social Order in the Clerk's and Merchant's Tales seeks to reconcile deviations in traditional form and representations of marital authority in both tales by understanding Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales as existing in and responding to a shifting social hierarchy. After establishing that the Peasants' Revolt of 1381 and John Wyclif's heretical tracts signified drastic challenges to received systems of social, political, and religious authority, I assert that the disruption of genre and medieval models of wifehood in the Clerk's Tale and the Merchant's Tale is a recognition-celebratory for the Clerk and bitter for …
Self-Confessions, Brandy Dawn Clark
Self-Confessions, Brandy Dawn Clark
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
The poems in this collection pay homage to the narrative tradition of poetry, in that they tell a story, use a narrator and characters. These poems, however, are the author’s own interpretation of the narrative tradition. The poems are not formal, are not written in metered verse, and do not rhyme. The poems in this collection are a celebration of narrative poetry, and of her poetic voice. They are a mixture of free verse and prose poems, and above all—they collectively tell a story: her story.
Merging Mediums: Applying Document Design To Online Help Systems To Increase Usability, Meghan M. Smith
Merging Mediums: Applying Document Design To Online Help Systems To Increase Usability, Meghan M. Smith
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
Document design is an essential part of print, and more recently, web documents, but recent application to the usability of document design in the current iteration of online help systems has been lacking. As an attempt to fill this gap, I conducted a study testing three document design principles—color, navigation structures (headings/hyperlinks), and visuals—to determine how they should be applied in online help systems to increase usability. I constructed an online help system for the online infographic creator Piktochart, and used these three principles according to theories and practices from prior research on print and web documents. Participants used the …
The Trials Of Louis Benecke, David Alan Whitby
The Trials Of Louis Benecke, David Alan Whitby
Graduate Theses/Dissertations
The Civil War was the bloodiest war in American history, and the country felt its impact in many ways. One of those ways was in the expansion of the pension system. The scale of the war left thousands of wounded soldiers in need of care, and a government that recognized its duty to help. In this thesis, I examine the new pension laws that not only benefitted veterans, but also their dependents. Women and children were included within the laws of the ever changing and expanding pension system. This system was not just for white veterans, but also for African-American …
Higher Education: The Impact On Bosnian Women Who Came As Refugees To The United States, Belma Sadikovic
Higher Education: The Impact On Bosnian Women Who Came As Refugees To The United States, Belma Sadikovic
Boise State University Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the impact college education has on Bosnian refugee women who resettled to the United States. The research findings help us better understand the effect higher education has on female students who came to the United States as refugees, their self-sufficiency and their overall integration into their new society. Using Kunz’s refugee theory and Bourdieu’s theory on social and cultural capital as a theoretical framework, the study explores socio-cultural factors that enable and constrain the ability of Bosnian women to navigate the facets of higher education, and how those factors affect their self-sufficiency and overall integration. The participants …
We’Re All Mad Here : The Madness Of Linguistic Expression In Alice’S Adventures In Wonderland, Rose Arszulowicz
We’Re All Mad Here : The Madness Of Linguistic Expression In Alice’S Adventures In Wonderland, Rose Arszulowicz
Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
The occurrences of madness in the text of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures on Wonderland and in Sir John Tenniel’s accompanying illustrations have largely gone unexamined or have been seen by interpreters as simple byproducts of Carroll’s use of nonsense language. This paper examines the ways in which madness is produced and framed in both the context of the narrative as well as in Tenniel’s associated illustrations. A close reading and examination of the language of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland reveals a framework through which the narrative’s underlying elements of madness can be perceived. Through their use of language, the narrator …
Choosing A Moral Compass: The Journey Towards Moral Maturity In Harry Potter, Tricia Mieden
Choosing A Moral Compass: The Journey Towards Moral Maturity In Harry Potter, Tricia Mieden
Masters Theses
This thesis examines Harry Potter’s moral development and illustrates how a reader’s involvement with literature complements moral education in the classroom. Using Lawrence Kohlberg’s theory of moral development as a guide, this thesis considers how Harry solidifies his moral commitments as he matures and, as a result, becomes more aware of how his moral principles influence his actions. Through an analysis of Harry’s cognitive reasoning, which is evidenced through the narration, readers are able to develop a similar awareness to the ways their moral principles influence their choices
Worship Renewal Through Discipleship: How Discipleship And Mission Affects Our Worship, Kevin Haglund
Worship Renewal Through Discipleship: How Discipleship And Mission Affects Our Worship, Kevin Haglund
Masters Theses
Numerous articles, blogs, and books have been written in recent years about the lessening of congregational participation in singing and many have called for a renewal of worship and changes in worship practice within the church. Yet, most of the solutions offered are aimed at bettering what happens inside the worship event—singing songs with more theologically rich lyrics, incorporating more scripture and prayer, striving for more creative ways to engage the congregation, more resources and training for worship leaders, and many other valuable ideas. As excellent as those solutions may be, they are incomplete unless we also focus on that …
Islam In Saudi Arabia: The Homogeneous Portrayal And Heterogeneous Reality, John Rogeberg
Islam In Saudi Arabia: The Homogeneous Portrayal And Heterogeneous Reality, John Rogeberg
Masters Theses
The objective of this thesis is to apply commonly held statistics in the world of missiology regarding folk Islamic practices to the least likely country for such practices to be found, Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is believed by most to be the birth-site of an austere, strict, orthodox form of Islam, responsible for the nature and nurture (education, promotion, and financing) of Islamic extremism. Conversely, I posit that through tracing the development of Wahhabism and its current global influence on Islam, its literalist interpretation becomes a profitable tool for the student of anthropology, missiology, and cross-cultural studies to gain a …
