Professor of English at North Dakota State University in Fargo, Matchie teaches American literature, including midwestem and multicultural authors. He has published numerous articles on the Great Plains, including works by Louise Erdrich, Thomas McGrath, and Lois Hudson.

VICTORIA WODZAK elegantly limns the distance, interaction, and tension between warriors and weavers, the heroic code and the domestic code, in classical epics, notably those of Homer and Beowulf. Wodzak is a Ph.D. candidate in the English program of the University of Missouri-Columbia, teaches composition for that Department, and not least is the mother of seven children, ages one to sixteen, to whom she attributes at least part of the inspiration for her essay. This is her first published scholarly work.

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

There is no escaping the mentality--or the burden--of e pluribus unum, writes EDWARD M. GRIFFIN, whether there is a oneness or a plural character to being an American or another notion entirely of what kind of people our multicultural backgrounds have fashioned. Whether national policy or educational philosophy, this concept, these concepts, must be confronted. Professor of English at the University of Minnesota, Griffin has written widely on such colonial figures as Jonathan Edwards and Charles Chauncy, and he has recently turned his attention to the American poet/playwrights Robert Lowell and William Alfred.

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

JOHN CHURCHILL argues that only by providing "exemplars—cases of fit and base behavior in history, fiction, and other fields, narratives of situations and problem-confrontation in which the possible challenges of human life are exhibited and some possible resolutions held up for consideration," can those who would learn deliberate upon and apply abstract principles, and that this is the essence of a liberal education. Along the way Churchill confronts the issue of what is meant by rational argumentation. Vice President for Academic Affairs, Dean of the College, at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas, Churchill sums up his many publications, including two …

SONYA YVETTE ALVARADO shows the similarities between Owen Wister's Em'ly and Dolly, a hen and a schoolmarm characterized as unnatural for their independence and rejection of motherhood, and the women in Ken's Kesey's One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, a collection of castrating wives and nurses. Author of an article on David Mamet's "Glengarry Glenn Ross," Alvarado is currently a doctoral student in the Department of English at Texas Tech University, where she teaches Studies in Dramatic Literature, and is researching the use of computers and the Internet as tools in teaching literature.

STEVEN VINCENT describes his attempt to come to terms with what he has seen in the killing fields of Cambodia, monuments to the Khmer Rouge's systematic destruction of Cambodians who had known or imagined life other than the rural peasant ideal their bloody torturers and murderers envisioned, even if this means not coming to terms with it at all but to accept its unacceptability, not to rationalize the irrational.
