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. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5.

Morris advances from an early portrayal of isolation and disrupted community to a later vision of healthy interplay between indi­ vidual and society. The Oxford and Cambridge Magazine tales, The Defence of Guenevere and Other Poems, and The Earthly Paradise explore futile personal strategies for confronting isolated, time-bound experience; the late prose romances present a mature communal solution that both accommodates change and provides a means of resisting its adverse effects. Love Is Enough is a pivotal work in Morris' study of isolation and community, for it looks back to the limited personal strategies of the early works even as it looks forward to the more comprehensive communal strategy of the late work. This thematic development is accompanied by formal development. Dream and dramatic monologue are the characteristic forms of the early works, whose chief interest is to explore psychological complications. With Love Is Enough the dominance of introspective forms is left behind: a complex quali­ fying structure envelops Pharamond's dream experience. Two of the late vi vii romances use a dream frame, but as a vehicle for presenting social vision rather than as a means of exploring psychological concerns; the other late romances employ an objective third-person narrator to describe communal struggles for survival. Both thematically and formally, then, Morris' fables of isolation give way to fables of community in a continuous pattern of development, addressing problems deeply embedded in the Victorian consciousness. CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION William Morris, it seems, was a rather isolated figure in many respects. J. W. Mackail cites a Marlborough classmate who remembered Morris as "fond of mooning and talking to himself, and considered a little mad by the other boys.1,1 E. P. Thompson and Philip Henderson both characterize the young Morris as rather solitary. 2 Jack Lindsay tells of "crushing periods of exclusion, loneliness" in Morris' childhood and reports that "from early days people noted that Morris seemed inturned . oblivious of persons around and unconcerned with what was regarded as the normal conventions of O intercourse." Says Mackail, "in the ordinary concerns of life he was strangely incurious of individuals"; he moved among his fellows "as in a dream, isolated, self-centred, almost empty of love or hatred"; "his most intimate friend," presumably Burne-Jones, once said, "He lives absolutely without the need of man or woman. He is really a sort of Viking, set down ^The Life of William Morris (London: Longmans, 1899; rpt. 1907). 2William Morris: Romantic to Revolutionary (London: Lawrence and Wishart, 1955), p. 18; "Introduction," The Letters of William Morris to His Family and Friends, ed. Philip Henderson (London: Longmans, 1950), p. xxvii. 3 William Morris: His Life and Work (London: Constable, 1975), pp. 14-16. 1 2 here, and making art because there is nothing else to do" (Life II, 93, 349-50). These impressions of Morris' withdrawn personality are bolstered by May Morris' "Introductions" to The Collected Works, in which she speaks of an "element of solitariness in our family life," noting her father's "solitary visits to Kelmscott," his slipping away for "a few days' stay of solitary work and rest."4 Generally May regarded such stays as beneficial and pleasant for her father, but on at least one occasion she realized that the solitude wore heavily on him, however much he may have needed it.

    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.

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.

  • Encryption Block Cipher
    10/29/2007 Encryption Encryption Block Cipher Dr.Talal Alkharobi 2 Block Cipher A symmetric key cipher which operates on fixed-length groups of bits, termed blocks, with an unvarying transformation. When encrypting, a block cipher take n-bit block of plaintext as input, and output a corresponding n-bit block of ciphertext. The exact transformation is controlled using a secret key. Decryption is similar: the decryption algorithm takes n-bit block of ciphertext together with the secret key, and yields the original n-bit block of plaintext. Mode of operation is used to encrypt messages longer than the block size. 1 Dr.Talal Alkharobi 10/29/2007 Encryption 3 Encryption 4 Decryption 2 Dr.Talal Alkharobi 10/29/2007 Encryption 5 Block Cipher Consists of two algorithms, encryption, E, and decryption, D. Both require two inputs: n-bits block of data and key of size k bits, The output is an n-bit block. Decryption is the inverse function of encryption: D(E(B,K),K) = B For each key K, E is a permutation over the set of input blocks. n Each key K selects one permutation from the possible set of 2 !. 6 Block Cipher The block size, n, is typically 64 or 128 bits, although some ciphers have a variable block size. 64 bits was the most common length until the mid-1990s, when new designs began to switch to 128-bit. Padding scheme is used to allow plaintexts of arbitrary lengths to be encrypted. Typical key sizes (k) include 40, 56, 64, 80, 128, 192 and 256 bits.
