WINTER 1977-78 r-----Contributors to this Issue----. JAMES MOSS, West Chester, Pennsylvania, is a doctoral student in the Department of Folklore and Folklife at the University of Penn­ sylvania. His analysis of the outlaw-hero in Pennsylvania - dealing with the Doans, Sandy Flash, and David Lewis - grew out of his long­ standing interest in legendary figures in Pennsylvania's past. DR. ROBERT A. BARAKAT, St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada, is professor of anthropology at the Memorial University of Newfoundland. His article in this issue is a sequel to hi s "Glossary of Pennsylvania German Terms Related to Construction and Tobacco Agriculture," in the Spring 1977 issue of Pennsylvania Folklife. Both articles are drawn from his Ph.D. dissertation, on the Tobacco Culture of Southeastern Pennsylvania, done at the University of Pennsylvanja. The informant whose description of tobacco-shed rrusing is given here is Phares Hurst, Old Order Mennonite farmer and builder of Lancaster County, Penn­ sylvania. HOLLY CUTTING BAKER, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is a doctoral student in the Department of Folklore and Folklife at the University of Pennsylvania. Her paper in this issue, on patent medjcines in Pennsy lvania before the Pure Food and Drugs Act of 1906, was prepared for the Seminar on Folk Medicine in 1974. DR. KARL J. R. ARNDT, Worcester, Massachusetts, is the dean of American-German historians and bibliographers. llis many articles and books in the area of American-German studies touch at many points on Pennsylvania German subjects. His latest contribution to our columns was "Teach, Preach, or Weave Stockings? The Trilemma of a Pennsylvania Scholar," which appeared in the Fall 1977 issue of Pennsylvania Folklife.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary
    The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary German Literature Thomas R. Bell A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Dr. Sabine Wilke, Chair Dr. Richard Block Dr. Eric Ames Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Germanics ©Copyright 2015 Thomas R. Bell University of Washington Abstract The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary German Literature Thomas Richard Bell Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Sabine Wilke Germanics This dissertation focuses on texts written by four contemporary, German-speaking authors: W. G. Sebald’s Die Ringe des Saturn and Schwindel. Gefühle, Daniel Kehlmann’s Die Vermessung der Welt, Sybille Lewitscharoff’s Blumenberg, and Peter Handke’s Der Große Fall. The project explores how the texts represent forms of religion in an increasingly secular society. Religious themes, while never disappearing, have recently been reactivated in the context of the secular age. This current societal milieu of secularism, as delineated by Charles Taylor, provides the framework in which these fictional texts, when manifesting religious intuitions, offer a postsecular perspective that serves as an alternative mode of thought. The project asks how contemporary literature, as it participates in the construction of secular dialogue, generates moments of religiously coded transcendence. What textual and narrative techniques serve to convey new ways of perceiving and experiencing transcendence within the immanence felt and emphasized in the modern moment? While observing what the textual strategies do to evoke religious presence, the dissertation also looks at the type of religious discourse produced within the texts. The project begins with the assertion that a historically antecedent model of religion – namely, Friedrich Schleiermacher’s – which is never mentioned explicitly but implicitly present throughout, informs the style of religious discourse.

References ………………………………………………………………….. 78 Note to readers: This ‘paper’ ended up being actually the draft of a short book; the book is likely to have one more chapter, dealing with globalization, development, and environment issues; it is also likely to have examples, and to be written in a less academic manner, or so I hope. I’ve had several tentative titles over the past few years, the most recent one being The Ecological Crisis and the Question of Civilizational Transitions: Designs for the Pluriverse. I’ve been reading, and working with, most of this material for a long time, but some of it is new (to me); this is particularly true for Part I on design. I suspect the text is quite uneven as a result. Part IV is largely cut-and-paste from several texts in English and Spanish, particularly the long preface to the 2nd ed. of Encountering Development. This part will need additional re/writing besides editing and reorganizing. The references are somewhat incomplete; there are a few key design references of which I have been made aware very recently that are not, or not significantly, included (e.g., on participatory design, postcolonial computing, and human-computer interaction).

  • Laquinimod Protects the Optic Nerve and Retina in an Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Model Anna T
    Wilmes et al. Journal of Neuroinflammation (2018) 15:183 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12974-018-1208-3 RESEARCH Open Access Laquinimod protects the optic nerve and retina in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model Anna T. Wilmes1†, Sabrina Reinehr1†, Sandra Kühn1, Xiomara Pedreiturria2, Laura Petrikowski2, Simon Faissner2, Ilya Ayzenberg2, Gesa Stute1, Ralf Gold2, H. Burkhard Dick1, Ingo Kleiter2*† and Stephanie C. Joachim1*† Abstract Background: The oral immunomodulatory agent laquinimod is currently evaluated for multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment. Phase II and III studies demonstrated a reduction of degenerative processes. In addition to anti-inflammatory effects, laquinimod might have neuroprotective properties, but its impact on the visual system, which is often affected by MS, is unknown. The aim of our study was to investigate potential protective effects of laquinimod on the optic nerve and retina in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model. Methods: We induced EAE in C57/BL6 mice via MOG35–55 immunization. Animals were divided into an untreated EAE group, three EAE groups receiving laquinimod (1, 5, or 25 mg/kg daily), starting the day post-immunization, and a non- immunized control group. Thirty days post-immunization, scotopic electroretinograms were carried out, and mice were sacrificed for histopathology (HE, LFB), immunohistochemistry (MBP, Iba1, Tmem119, F4/80, GFAP, vimentin, Brn-3a, cleaved caspase 3) of the optic nerve and retina, and retinal qRT-PCR analyses (Brn-3a, Iba1, Tmem119, AMWAP, CD68, GFAP). To evaluate the effect of a therapeutic approach, EAE animals were treated with 25 mg/kg laquinimod from day 16 when 60% of the animals had developed clinical signs of EAE.

  • Philadelphia Merchants, Trans-Atlantic Smuggling, and The
    Friends in Low Places: Philadelphia Merchants, Trans-Atlantic Smuggling, and the Secret Deals that Saved the American Revolution By Tynan McMullen University of Colorado Boulder History Honors Thesis Defended 3 April 2020 Thesis Advisor Dr. Virginia Anderson, Department of History Defense Committee Dr. Miriam Kadia, Department of History Capt. Justin Colgrove, Department of Naval Science, USMC 1 Introduction Soldiers love to talk. From privates to generals, each soldier has an opinion, a fact, a story they cannot help themselves from telling. In the modern day, we see this in the form of leaked reports to newspapers and controversial interviews on major networks. On 25 May 1775, as the British American colonies braced themselves for war, an “Officer of distinguished Rank” was running his mouth in the Boston Weekly News-Letter. Boasting about the colonial army’s success ​ ​ during the capture of Fort Ticonderoga two weeks prior, this anonymous officer let details slip about a far more concerning issue. The officer remarked that British troops in Boston were preparing to march out to “give us battle” at Cambridge, but despite their need for ammunition “no Powder is to be found there at present” to supply the Massachusetts militia.1 This statement was not hyperbole. When George Washington took over the Continental Army on 15 June, three weeks later, he was shocked at the complete lack of munitions available to his troops. Two days after that, New England militiamen lost the battle of Bunker Hill in agonizing fashion, repelling a superior British force twice only to be forced back on the third assault.

Key anniversaries, including the commemoration of the Bhopal gas leak in 1984 and the Rwanda genocide in 1994, as well as reflections on 30 years since the adoption of the UN Convention against Torture, reminded us that while leaps forward have been made, there is still work to be done to ensure justice for victims and survivors of grave abuses.
