  • Pepperdine University Editorial Style Guide INTRODUCTION
    Pepperdine University Editorial Style Guide INTRODUCTION Editorial Stance Pepperdine University has adopted a unified editorial style for both print and digital media, which principally follows the Chicago Manual of Style (17th edition) with certain exceptions noted in this guide. Pepperdine style is a “down” style, meaning that capitals are to be used sparingly and intentionally. References to the 17th edition (when applicable) are provided within entries where Pepperdine and Chicago coincide. Ideal Pepperdine style is minimalist yet pragmatic, intended to provide clarity, consistent logic, and elegant structure to its communications, using the least amount of punctuation and type to most effectively and quickly deliver an author’s message to the intended audience. Editorial/Aesthetic License Pepperdine style should give writers and designers a broad range of creative freedom in which to work. Deviations from standard practice in University-branded, flagship publications are permitted only by agreement with Integrated Marketing Communications. As a general rule, in all University publications using another company’s word mark and/or logo, we should make sure we have written permission to do so. All factual claims must be verifiable. Grammar and usage must follow standard current practices. Standard Reference Books Consult the 17th edition of the Chicago Manual of Style for questions of style, punctuation, and grammar not treated in this guide. Consult the 11th edition of the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary to check correct and preferred spelling, syllable division, hyphenation, and abbreviated forms. The American Heritage Dictionary, any edition, is recommended for reference on how words are popularly understood in the United States. Pepperdine-Chicago vs.

Here you will find resources that shed light on the basics of one of the greatest musical developments in modern history.WWW.BSSVE.IN Born in America, jazz can be seen as a reflection of the cultural diversity and individualism of this country. At its core are openness to all influences, and personal expression through improvisation. Throughout its history, jazz has straddled the worlds of popular music and art music, and it has expanded to a point where its styles are so varied that one may sound completely unrelated to another. First performed in bars, jazz can now be heard in clubs, concert halls, universities, and large festivals all over the world. www.bsscommunitycollege.in www.bssnewgeneration.in www.bsslifeskillscollege.in 2 www.onlineeducation.bharatsevaksamaj.net www.bssskillmission.in Key Points: 1.

  • Cetology and Crustaceology in Moby-Dick and “Consider the Lobster”
    Ethics and Semiogenic Construction of Other Animals: Cetology and Crustaceology in Moby-Dick and “Consider the Lobster” By Eva Natalia Kasprzycka A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of English, Film, Theatre and Media University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2019 by Eva Kasprzycki i Abstract This thesis brings together a ten-page essay on lobsters and a 700-page book on whales to scrutinize the semiogenic construction of creatures floating in the political animal menagerie. Herman Melville’s novel Moby-Dick and David Foster Wallace’s essay “Consider the Lobster” are texts that are fundamentally concerned with the ethical stakes of textual and historical representations of cetaceans and crustaceans. Both these works explore the intersection between the unknowability of nonhuman animal subjectivity and the industrial rendering of nonhuman animal bodies —an intersection paved and maintained by biopolitical agents that emphasize the former so that the latter can occur without criticism. Despite being published 154 years apart, both these works use the New England coastline to portray industries of death and devouring, both of which are centres of epistemological ambiguity for Wallace and Melville. By theoretically unpacking the political, cultural and historical portrayal of crustaceans and cetaceans in these two literary works, this thesis pursues some of the intra-active networks —in particular those of speciesist ideology— that encase and weave together the industrialized biocapital of nonhuman bodies to the aesthetic representation of them. ii Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank the Department of English, Film and Theatre for the financial support that made this endeavour a lot easier.
