Invisible Tolls Of Immigration: Mental Health Among Young Immigrants, Mira Shoukry, Nuria Ibanez
Invisible Tolls Of Immigration: Mental Health Among Young Immigrants, Mira Shoukry, Nuria Ibanez
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
This brief literature review details existing research surrounding the topic of mental health among young immigrants while bringing attention to a widely ignored issue. While those born in the United States are generally aware of the large Hispanic immigrant population in the country, most do not witness the extremely difficult and often traumatic process of immigration. A search of the PubMed database has revealed a severe lack of research into the unique factors affecting the mental health of young immigrants. Despite limited studies, there appears to be a general consensus that immigrant children in particular are at a significantly increased …
Exploring The Identity Development Of Second Generation Filipino-Americans, Melody Fordan
Exploring The Identity Development Of Second Generation Filipino-Americans, Melody Fordan
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
First-generation Filipinos come to the United States in order to start a new life, provide for their families back home, seeking to fulfill their own “American Dream”, and become U.S citizens just like all immigrants. The population of Filipino-Americans is increasing as more aspire to move to the States as many have done before. Simultaneously, cultures of both worlds blur together in one’s upbringing. Second-generation Filipino-Americans, children of at least one or both first-generation Filipino-Americans, go through leaps and hurdles in their quest of delving into their ethnic identity. One’s identity can be defined by many attributes of culture, but …

Mapping The Quixotic Imagination: Madrid In Galdos's "Misericordia", Sara Knuz-Rutigliano, Diego Salinas, Angeles Fernandez
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
The project examines Pérez Galdós’s views on social regeneration of 19th-century Spain in one of his most acclaimed novels, “Misericordia”, by documenting the wanderings through 19th-century Madrid of the main characters of the novel through geolocation tools. The novel’s main character is a quixotic and self-sacrificing beggar who does not only challenge the cartographic power and the conceptualization of space imposed by a middle class seeking to control urban growth but also reappropriates civic values that had been robbed of all meaning by Spanish society at the time. From that perspective, “Misericordia” constitutes the writer’s ultimate vindication of the narrative …

Community Outreach And Crafted Narratives In A Collaborative Textual Editing Project, Carol Hemmingway, James Dell'alba, Ethan Leavitt
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
In this presentation, student research intern Carol Hemmingway and project participants James Dell’Alba and Ethan Leavitt, will discuss their work on Editing the Eartha M. M. White Collection. The project focuses on the personal correspondence and other documents of Eartha M. M. White (1876–1974), the founder of the Clara White Mission and a leader of Jacksonville’s African American community. Participants create, encode using TEI-XML, and edit transcriptions of the items from the collection, connecting them with White’s personal history and the African American history of Jacksonville. In Spring 2020, the project has taken the form of weekly open textual editing …
Poland's Illiberal Democracy: Ethno-Nationalism & Refugees, Evan Maslin
Poland's Illiberal Democracy: Ethno-Nationalism & Refugees, Evan Maslin
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
There are 70.8 million forcibly displaced people worldwide, cumulating in the largest international humanitarian crisis since the Second World War. The resettlement and integration of these people is a transnational challenge that must be placed at the forefront of the global policy agenda. In Poland, discursive shifts fueled by false, advantageous, political narratives are leading to an unprecedented level of violence and discrimination towards both refugee and immigrant communities. Consistent strings of xenophobic attacks resulting in physical harm or destruction have occurred across the country, thus further uncovering a pattern of deliberate acts against immigrant and refugee populations. These heinous …

Uses Of Photography To Address Social And Political Issues In Guatemala, Thomas Avalos, Clayton Mccarl
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
My research project involves how photography affects Guatemala. Following the Spanish invasion 500 years ago, several issues began to occur in Guatemala. Despite Guatemala being Central Americas’ most industrialized country, several issues were highlighted from the past towards the present. These include cultivation for coffee by the Indians, as well as women being abused and neglected starting at an early age towards adulthood, and homeless individuals living in urban streets like Guatemala City. There are several kinds of methods that explains how photography explores social and political Conflict and Guatemala. The first part delves into historical issues that occurs during …

Reflections On A Digital-Humanities-On-Site Experience In Colombia, Emilia Thom, Amarilys Sanchez, Clayton Mccarl
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
The Antioquia Negra Digital Archive presents diplomatic transcriptions and partially modernized reading versions of colonial–era and nineteenth–century documents related to Africans and those of African descent in the Colombian department of Antioquia. These materials are housed within the Archivo Histórico de Antioquia (Medellín) and the Archivo Histórico Bernardo Martínez Villa (Santa Fe de Antioquia). Led by Dr. Clayton McCarl, the project involves undergraduate students from UNF as primary collaborators. The Antioquia Negra Digital Archive began in 2019 as part of a summer-session, faculty-led study abroad experience in Colombia codirected by Dr. McCarl and Dr. Constanza López Baquero. Emilia Thom and …

‘My Fellow Citizens’: Deaf Perspectives On Translating The Opening Line Of A Presidential Inaugural Address Into American Sign Language, Laurie Swabey, Brenda Nicodemus, Keith Cagle, Jimmy Beldon
Journal of Interpretation
Translating from English into American Sign Language holds a number of challenges, particularly when the English source text is a formal, high profile, scripted speech. This study examined perspectives of Deaf bilinguals on translating President Obama’s 2009 inaugural address into American Sign Language. We conducted a microanalysis of translations of the opening line – ‘my fellow citizens’ – to investigate the product and processes employed by Deaf translators. Five Deaf ASL-English bilinguals who are ASL teachers or interpreters/translators were asked to translate the opening paragraph of the address and were interviewed about the processes they used to render their …
Evidence Of A "Hearing" Dialect Of Asl While Interpreting, Campbell Mcdermid
Evidence Of A "Hearing" Dialect Of Asl While Interpreting, Campbell Mcdermid
Journal of Interpretation
Little is know about the characteristics of fluent hearing signers and their ultimate attainment of ASL as a second language. To address this, a study was conducted with 12 ASL-English interpreters who were native English speakers to examine their use of ASL while interpreting. Each subject was asked to simultaneously interpret a short English narrative into ASL and a panel of three Deaf native signers assessed their fluency. Though the group included both novice and expert interpreters, the results revealed many similarities in their work. These included a reduction in pronouns between the English source and ASL target text, the …
