    MARTHA SCHOFIELD AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF A WOMAN’S AUTONOMOUS LIFE: 1858-1870 by MELANIE ROSEANNE PAVICH (Under the Direction of Ronald E. Butchart) ABSTRACT Martha Schofield was a Quaker, a teacher, and a woman who came of age at the beginning of the Civil War. She began teaching in 1858 both to contribute to her family’s income and in answer to what she came to believe was her life’s calling. Along with abolitionism, women’s rights, and temperance were among the causes she and her family supported. In addition, her mother was a Quaker minister, often travelling from home to preach as well as to lecture. During the war Martha taught in a school for free blacks in Philadelphia and volunteered as a hospital worker and nurse. Her influences were many for women’s contributions in a reforming and expanded post-war world, including Lucretia Mott, Anna Dickinson, and Susan B. Anthony. At the same time, Martha hoped to become a wife and mother but that was not to be. Instead, with failing health she ventured south, first to coastal South Carolina and eventually to the town of Aiken, to dedicate her life to the uplift of former slaves. By 1871, she established what would become the Schofield Normal and Industrial School in Aiken, living and working there until her death in 1916. Through choice and circumstances, Martha Schofield became a freedmen’s teacher, established a school, and secured its success through her business and fundraising skills. For most of her adult life, she worked tirelessly for the rights of African Americans and women.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material.

True freedom is never freedom to do what we want to do, but always freedom to do what we ought to do with a deep sense of rightness – such as the freedom to speak the truth as we ought to speak, the freedom to worship our Lord God as we ought to worship Him, the freedom to assemble for the purpose of justice and mercy, and to defend these freedoms as we ought to defend them with our very lives.

  • Immortal Words: the Language and Style of the Contemporary Italian Undead-Romance Novel
    Immortal Words: the Language and Style of the Contemporary Italian Undead-Romance Novel by Christina Vani A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Italian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Christina Vani 2018 Immortal Words: the Language and Style of the Contemporary Italian Undead-Romance Novel Christina Vani Doctor of Philosophy Department of Italian Studies University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This thesis explores the language and style of six “undead romances” by four contemporary Italian women authors. I begin by defining the undead romance, trace its roots across horror and romance genres, and examine the subgenres under the horror-romance umbrella. The Trilogia di Mirta-Luna by Chiara Palazzolo features a 19-year-old sentient zombie as the protagonist: upon waking from death, Mirta-Luna searches the Subasio region for her love… but also for human flesh. These novels present a unique interpretation of the contemporary “vampire romance” subgenre, as they employ a style influenced by Palazzolo’s American and British literary idols, including Cormac McCarthy’s dialogic style, but they also contain significant lexical traces of the Cannibali and their contemporaries. The final three works from the A cena col vampiro series are Moonlight rainbow by Violet Folgorata, Raining stars by Michaela Dooley, and Porcaccia, un vampiro! by Giusy De Nicolo. The first two are fan-fiction works inspired by Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga, while the last is an original queer vampire romance. These novels exhibit linguistic and stylistic traits in stark contrast with the Trilogia’s, though Porcaccia has more in common with Mirta-Luna than first meets the eye.

The team must band together to stop a mysterious revenant while Nicole and Waverly try to repair the bond that's barely keeping them together. Notes Hi guys. This takes place a few months after s1 ending. We'll be trying to stick to a weekly posting schedule with weekly previews on the weekends posted on tumblr. Chapter 1 The first thing Waverly sees is Nicole. Everything's out of focus, like the blurred haze of a long lingering dream. Everything but Nicole. Her eyes are dark and wide, crystal sharp with concern, but steady. So steady. She has one hand outstretched toward Waverly, beckoning. Her lips form words Waverly can't make out over a furious roar that makes the ground quake beneath her feet. Waverly reaches out, but her arms feel sluggish, as if she's struggling to move in the deep depths of the ocean, the water's heavy pressure keeping her immobile.

    Through the Valley by Kierstin E. Mollé A creative project submitted to Sonoma State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in English Committee Members: Stefan Kiesbye Chingling Wo May 8, 2020 i Copyright 2020 By Kierstin E. Mollé ii Authorization for Reproduction of Master’s Project I grant permission for the print or digital reproduction of this project in its entirety, without further authorization from me, on the condition that the person or agency requesting reproduction absorb the cost and provide proper acknowledgement of authorship. Date: May 8, 2020 Name: Kierstin E. Mollé iii Through the Valley Creative Project by Kierstin Elizabeth Mollé ABSTRACT My intent with Through the Valley was, in part, to provide representation in a genre I so rarely find for myself and for others who fall into similar identities as myself in terms of gender and sexuality. Historical fiction has always been a genre I have been passionate about and it was my goal to imbue the historical setting I’ve chosen to work within with themes that can still be felt in the present day such as a search for one’s identity, the impact of war on those who fight it, the lengths people will go as a result of fervent patriotism. Having grown up in a period of conflict I find it cathartic in some ways to write what might be qualified as war literature in spite of the fact I myself have never experienced military service. I sincerely hope that my characters will read as real people with real struggles that the reader can connect and empathize with in spite of any inherent differences between themselves and the characters on the page.
