Between Crazy And Fine, Annette Aguilera-Gonzalez

SURGE

As a young Latina, I grew up hiding the fact that I met with a therapist and that I suffered from depression and anxiety. Conversations about mental well-being or taking steps to cope with anxiety were non-existent in my community of friends and family. It was always a taboo topic, an area that we never touched. People were labeled as “crazy” and serious situations were swept under the rug. Seldom was I offered empathy or support. [excerpt]

Deconstructing Faith And A Disorienting Community, Scott Thomas Scrivner

Doctor of Ministry

Life does not go as planned. It can be both brighter and more tragic than expected, and probably even both, all at once. I have felt deeply the moments my expectations were not met in my life. My faith is one of those things greatly affected by such brokenness and beauty in life. After years in ministry and years practicing my faith, I have found that the church is too often not a space to work through the disorientation that comes when one’s understanding of life conflicts with one’s actual experience of life. Instead of making room for this kind …

Department of Anthropology: Faculty Publications

The Colorado Plateau is a land of long horizons punctuated by dramatic buttes, mesas, and mountain ranges. The rich cultural heritage and natural beauty of this region hold meaning for the millions of tourists who visit each year to experience this iconic landscape. Many of these same places on the Plateau are still considered central to indigenous religious practices, histories, and oral traditions of descendent communities in the region. This landscape is also defined by the complex connections and histories of diverse resident communities. Ancient communities of the Plateau are the focus of ongoing major anthropological investigations into such issues …

Convergent Commensality: Towards Generational Reconciliation Through Differentiated Table Felowship, Daniel Proffitt

Doctor of Ministry

The generation gap, as it is classically defined, maintains postures of ideological polarization between generational cohorts. In a congregational context, the pendulum of societal projection diagnoses obvious differences in generations as a means of dealing with systemic anxiety inhibiting differentiation.

The temptation of self-reactivity, destructively compensating for a lack of self- identity – through blame, shame, control, and escape/chaos – results in overgeneralization of the generation gap as a response to formational violations of love and trust, and a perpetuation of unresolved anxiety that leads to homeostasis of the generation gap. The family systems model frames generational research as a …

Arts Integration: Establishing Teacher Candidates' Self-Efficacy When Engaging With The Arts, Michael J. Vetere Iii

Theses and Dissertations

Many teacher candidates who enter teacher education programs have received altered curricula that addressed the new common core of reading, writing, and mathematics (Beveridge 2010). This new common core curriculum neglects the importance of arts education. These students who have not been exposed to arts education, are reluctant to engage in the arts and fully participate in an arts education course as part of their teacher preparation (Hallam, Gupta, & Lee, 2008). These teacher candidates exhibit a low level of arts engagement and arts teaching self-efficacy and are therefore less confident with engaging and teaching the arts (Garvis, 2009). The …

Anti-Aestheticizing Australian Landscape: Compounding Historical Narratives Within Pictures., Brent Greene

Landscapes: the Journal of the International Centre for Landscape and Language

The following creative works aspire to construct landscapes that carry multiple, rather than singular, narratives as a means to explore Australia’s extensive landscape tradition. With the benefit of hindsight, the appropriated imagery of Glover and Heysen combine hybrid frameworks of Australian landscape at the time of colonisation and federation; through these pictures neither the colonial or Indigenous narrative is given precedent, alternatively numerous stories are overlayed as a method to communicate past and present entanglements within Australian space.

Feminine Film Style: Does It Really Exist? A Case Study Of Sofia Coppola’S Marie Antoinette And Zoe Cassavete’S Broken English, Alyson H. Stanley

Missouri S&T’s Peer to Peer

Masculinity and femininity in American cinema has always been a controversial topic. The two constructs have been changing with societal expectations and progression, but in the past, every time women and femininity have been granted a chance to develop in cinema, such as the introduction of the risqué flapper in the 1920s and the femme fatale of the 1950s, these developments were quelled by the inevitable return to traditional gender roles. But, after the feminist movement of the 1960s, there was no doubt about how extremely displeased women were with the current state of gender equality (Benshoff & Griffin, 2004). …

An Enlivening And Concrete Life-Together: Discovering A Fresh Rootedness In The Gospel For Local Organizations And Families In A Global Economic And Postmodern Consumerist Culture, Charles Estanol

Doctor of Ministry

This dissertation claims that the transmission of the gospel falls short in postmodern rural life because the message has not meaningfully integrated with community life as a whole and asserts that the witness of the church must employ a greater connectedness to local culture to affirm a rootedness in the gospel. Section 1 describes the abstract nature and influence of the global economy and postmodern consumerism, highlighting the growing negative effects on rural communities, families, and ultimately the witness of the gospel. Section 2 surveys a range of Christian organizations in today’s society analyzing how they can become polarized, absorbed, …

Wholistic And Ethical: Social Inclusion With Indigenous Peoples, Kathleen E. Absolon

Lyle S. Hallman Social Work Faculty Publications

This paper begins with a poem and is inclusive of my voice as Anishinaabekwe (Ojibway woman) and is authored from my spirit, heart, mind and body. The idea of social inclusion and Indigenous peoples leave more to the imagination and vision than what is the reality and actuality in Canada. This article begins with my location followed with skepticism and hope. Skepticism deals with the exclusion of Indigenous peoples since colonial contact and the subsequent challenges and impacts. Hope begins to affirm the possibilities, strengths and Indigenous knowledge that guides wholistic cultural frameworks and ethics of social inclusion. A wholistic …

南來香港 : 「和平文藝」作者 : 一九五、六〇年代《星島晚報》副刊「星晚」的連載小說研究, Hoi Yin, Yuki Shum

Lingnan Theses

劉以鬯曾指出「和平文藝」作家（即「和平文人」）對1949年後的香港文學的影響是重要的關鍵。1949年的政治變動吸引了左派文人北上，而歐陽天、徐訏、易文和劉以鬯等四位「和平文人」卻南來香港。一九五、六〇年代香港的報紙副刊地位特殊，南來文人就以報紙副刊作為文學作品的主要發表園地。四位作家也不例外，最擅長的謀生技能主要是創作和編輯報章副刊或雜誌，又或是二者兼之。《星島晚報》副刊「星晚」是他們初到香港的主要發表園地，作品的文學性較強，此副刊更是五、六〇年代香港文壇一個重要而目前未有充份研究的文藝園地。和平文人是南來文人的其中一群，他們筆下呈現了「香港」的某個側面，值得追問的是，他們筆下的「香港」為何如此，由此探討他們的心態。

一九五、六〇年代副刊的連載小說是結集成書和改編成電影的前置文本，在報刊、出版業、電影業三個香港文化產業中擔當了非常重要的角色。連載小說雖有廣泛傳閱的優長，同時也有文類特點的限制，與結集作品要求小說內容的整體性產生衝突，作家或會在結集時加以修訂。另一方面，當時的文學作品被改編為電影的情況非常普遍。原著作家或會參與電影製作，工作跨越了不同的媒介；更有作家在跨界工作後，汲取電影拍攝技巧，運用於自己的文學創作中。四位作家在《星島晚報•星晚》的連載小說具跨界特點，是研究當時文化產業的重要例子。

本文提出以下三個研究問題：

一、和平文人在《星島晚報•星晚》上連載了不少作品，當中所呈現的一九五、六〇年代香港社會的面貌是怎樣的？

二、和平文人的連載作品透現出他們怎樣的心態？

三、和平文人的連載作品是小說結集與電影改編的前置文本，與當時報業以外的文化產業（主要是出版業和電影業）組成了緊密的生產線，然則，連載小說與這些文化產業的互動情況具體如何？

若要勾勒一九五、六〇年代的香港文壇面貌，必須兼顧作家、作品及刊登園地等三方面。本文以《星島晚報•星晚》為園地，以歐陽天、徐訏、易文和劉以鬯作為研究對象，以連載小說為焦點，勾勒當時的文學面貌，對作品及文化背景深入研究。
