    Asia and the Pacific 1945–Present Key Events As you read, look for the key events in the history of postwar Asia. • Communists in China introduced socialist measures and drastic reforms under the leadership of Mao Zedong. • After World War II, India gained its independence from Britain and divided into two separate countries—India and Pakistan. • Japan modernized its economy and society after 1945 and became one of the world’s economic giants. The Impact Today The events that occurred during this time period still impact our lives today. • Today China and Japan play significant roles in world affairs: China for political and military reasons, Japan for economic reasons. • India and Pakistan remain rivals. In 1998, India carried out nuclear tests and Pakistan responded by testing its own nuclear weapons. • Although the people of Taiwan favor independence, China remains committed to eventual unification.

  • Janet Lyon, “On the Asylum Road with Woolf and Mew”
    On the Asylum Road with Woolf and Mew Janet Lyon What can disability theory bring to modernist studies? Let’s start with an infamous entry in the 1915 journal of Virginia Woolf, which reports a chance encounter with “a long MODERNISM / modernity line of imbeciles” on a towpath near Kingston. “It was perfectly VOLUME EIGHTEEN, NUMBER THREE, horrible,” she writes. “They should certainly be killed.”1 PP 551–574. © 2012 Woolf critics haven’t known quite what to do with this violent THE JOHNS HOPKINS speech act. Read it as an endorsement of eugenics activism? UNIVERSITY PRESS Soften it into an early symptom of Woolf’s impending break- down? Accord it the protected status of an uncensored private musing? Frame it in a list of Woolf’s worst offences? Accept it as an unsurprising manifestation of Woolf’s benighted political individualism?2 None of these responses is particularly satisfy- ing, given the wild disjunction between the brutality of Woolf’s declaration, on the one hand, and on the other its inoffensive tar- gets, who are simply taking a group walk along a tow path on the Thames. Indeed, it is telling that none of the commentary takes Janet Lyon is Associ- much account of those anonymous “imbeciles,” who, though ate Professor of English fingered for death, are more or less backgrounded as imprecise and Director of the emblems of a bygone era of alienists and asylums. It is as if, to this Disability Studies minor day, no one quite sees those people. I will be turning presently at Penn State University.

  • Abstract Jane Austen Uncensored
    ABSTRACT JANE AUSTEN UNCENSORED: A CRITICAL AND PEDAGOGICAL STUDY OF AUSTEN’S LETTERS FOR THE COLLEGE CLASSROOM Amanda Smothers, Ph.D. Department of English Northern Illinois University, 2016 William Baker and Lara Crowley, Co-Directors A vast amount of literary critical and scholarly work on Jane Austen’s writing, including her juvenilia, has been published. However, insufficient attention has been paid to her extant letters and their significance. This dissertation redresses the imbalance and is the first extensive critical, scholarly discussion of Jane Austen’s correspondence and their pedagogical applications. In order to rectify the disparity, this dissertation examines Jane Austen’s surviving letters to determine how to contextualize them historically and biographically and in relation to her fiction for college composition and undergraduate literature courses. Background information on letter writing in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century provides context for Austen’s letter writing, comparing her content and style to common practices. This study also investigates the world of Austen’s letters, focusing on historical and biographical context, and scrutinizing the letters as a source of information about middle-class Regency England; Austen’s family and social circles; and the author herself, including her personality, attitudes toward current events, views on works of literature, and references to her writing and publication processes. Moreover, Austen’s letters would be beneficial as a theoretical pedagogical tool for teaching not only the novels but the world of her novels through an examination of her letters. Throughout my dissertation, previous work on teaching Austen and teaching with letters (both as a teaching tool and as a writing method) is incorporated, analyzed, and adapted.

  • ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling) - Deep Impact Uncensored
    ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling) - Deep Impact Uncensored This can be a 3 rd fitting with ECW's "Best of" Digital video disc line.Being without been able to stick to ECW in the course of its "Golden" ages (it did not air outside the region) I quickly invested in this specific Video.For me, it turned out revenue well spent.The DVD characteristics Seven satisfies (in fact Nine if you consider about this, much more about this in the future...) as well as Wonderful Dvd and blu-ray accessories.Here i will discuss the actual match up rundown: A person. Mikey Whipwreck or A Sandman (w/ Lady) compared to "Superstar" Ken Dallas (12/9/95):Three-way party for any ECW Great quality identify.This fit per se was pretty typical, BUT it by itself delivered greater than it's great amount involving "money's worth" materials within this Dvd and blu-ray.Naturally, ECW is intending so that you can drive with Rock Cold's coat tails.This introduction towards the go with (by way of video clip deals) truly comes after a lot of Austin's ECW profession showing his feud together with the Sandman and the pursuit to overcom Mikey Whipwreck for the ECW Best quality title.Flick offer actually demonstrates almost all of Austin's very first match with Mikey wherever Mikey problems your "Stone Cool Superstar" for that gain.A go with itself seemed to be typical but is actually alone more like two fits (Mikey vs. Austin texas, Austin, tx vs. Sandman).Good technical wrestling using Austin along with Mikey along with respectable hard core complement Austin as well as the Sandman.Total, a great find Austin fans from their "pre-Stone Cold" nights.Five personalities.

B.A Universidad de Valladolid, (Spain), 1998. M.A. Universidad de Valladolid, (Spain), 2002. Committee Chair: Dr. María Paz Moreno Committee Members: Dr. C. Scarborough, Dr. L. Picanco. Abstract: This dissertation deals with the literary works of the Spanish exiled writer Paulino Masip. At the end of the Spanish Civil War, in 1939, Paulino Masip fled Spain to Mexico. Before the Civil War, Masip was already famous due to his plays. In Mexico, he published short stories, two novels and two plays. My objective is to demonstrate how the condition called “exile” influenced on his literary writing. To do so, I analyze his literary production written before the Civil War and how he elaborates the metaphor of exile in his works written in Mexico afterwards.
