I would like to thank the Calgary Institute for the Humanities and the Calgary Women’s Writing Project for receipt of the Winnie Tomm Memorial Scholarship, as well as the Izaak Walton Killam Memorial Fund for Advanced Studies and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, whose research fellowships originally enabled me, in the form of a doctoral dissertation, to explore the memoirs gathered here as a means to share the authors’ voices and experiences with a larger audience. The financial support noted above allowed me to work full-time on this project while living with my family in Kamloops, British Columbia, but the project itself would never have been conceived in the first place were it not for the supportive and inspirational atmosphere of the English Department at the University of Calgary. I would like to thank the Department for con- siderable financial contributions to my research and writing activities. Most especially, I am deeply indebted to Dr. Helen Buss, whose presence at the University of Calgary drew me to Alberta, and whose encouragement, ad- vice, criticism, and patience illustrates her knowledge of the subject and her dedication to the project of advancing education. I would also like to acknowledge that I have previously published some of the materials that make up this study. Portions of Chapter One and Chapter Two have been published as “(Nearly) Sacred Achievements: Culinary Place in Women’s Prairie Memoirs,” in a Special Issue of Essays on Canadian Writing titled “Food, Cooking, and Eating in Canadian Literature,” with Guest Editor Kathleen Batstone, 78 (2003): 16–41. Portions of Chapter One and Chapter Four have been published as “The ‘precarious perch’ of the ‘de- cent woman’: The Spatial (De)Construction of Gender in Canadian Women’s x Looking Back Prairie Memoirs,” in History, Literature, and the Writing of the Canadian Prairies, edited by Alison Calder and Robert Wardhaugh (University of Manitoba Press, 2005), 141–74. I would like to thank everyone at University of Calgary Press for the atten- tion to fine detail that occurs when assembling such a book, and especially to Donna Livingstone, whose persistence and vision has ultimately enabled these womens’ voices to be heard. Finally, to Dania Sheldon, whose careful and efficient gaze graced the manuscript in its final stages in order to create a comprehensive index. [ 1 ] Introduction: “Untilled Fields” Funny, how the stories you read when you are young take such a hold on you. They are like friends that mold and often seem to be a part of your own life, as if you had helped live them. – Edna Jacques, Uphill All the Way (1977) For the woman artist is not privileged or mandated to find her self- in-world except by facing (affronting?) and mounting an enormous struggle with the cultural fictions – myths, narratives, iconograph- ies, languages – which heretofore have delimited the representation of women. And which are culturally and psychically saturating. – Rachel Blau DuPlessis, “For the Etruscans” (1985) Their sharing is a gift of themselves, and a gift to themselves also; a restoration of themselves into our history. – Eliane Leslau Silverman, The Last Best West: Women on the Alberta Frontier, 1880–1930 (1984) 2 Looking Back Looking back now, I realize that the white, English-speaking image of the “Prairie Woman”1 existed as a fairly dominant force in my early life and im- agination. Indeed, I remember (still with a tremor of excitement) sitting down in front of the television in the fall of 1974 to watch the premiere of the series Little House on the Prairie, adapted from the autobiographical-inspired fiction by Laura Ingalls Wilder.

  • By Anne Millar
    Wartime Training at Canadian Universities during the Second World War Anne Millar Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate of Philosophy degree in history Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Anne Millar, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 ii Abstract This dissertation provides an account of the contributions of Canadian universities to the Second World War. It examines the deliberations and negotiations of university, government, and military officials on how best to utilize and direct the resources of Canadian institutions of higher learning towards the prosecution of the war and postwar reconstruction. During the Second World War, university leaders worked with the Dominion Government and high-ranking military officials to establish comprehensive training programs on campuses across the country. These programs were designed to produce service personnel, provide skilled labour for essential war and civilian industries, impart specialized and technical knowledge to enlisted service members, and educate returning veterans. University administrators actively participated in the formation and expansion of these training initiatives and lobbied the government for adequate funding to ensure the success of their efforts. This study shows that university heads, deans, and prominent faculty members eagerly collaborated with both the government and the military to ensure that their institutions’ material and human resources were best directed in support of the war effort and that, in contrast to the First World War, skilled graduates would not be heedlessly wasted. At the center of these negotiations was the National Conference of Canadian Universities, a body consisting of heads of universities and colleges from across the country.

Reacting to the medium’s growing significance, members of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) accepted that they had a wartime responsibility to maintain civilian morale. The CBC thus unequivocally supported the national cause throughout all levels of its organization. Its senior administrations and programmers directed the CBC’s efforts to aid the Canadian war effort.

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE THE PREPARATION OF THE ROLE OF TOM MOODY IN CLIFFORD ODETS' GOLDEN BOY An essay submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Theatre by Robert T. Hollander June, 1981 The Essay of Robert T. Hollander is approved: Prof. c(§!g Nieuwenhuysel Dr. Georg~ Gunkle, Committee Chairman California State University, Northridge ii ABSTRACT THE PREPARATION OF THE ROLE OF TOM MOODY IN CLIFFORD ODETS' GOLDEN BOY by Robert T. Hollander Master of Arts in Theatre Golden Boy was first produced by the Group Theatre in New York in 1937. Directed by Harold Clurman, this 1937 production included in its cast names that were to become notable in the American theatre: Luther Adler, Frances Farmer, Lee J. Cobb, Jules (John) Garfield, Morris Carnovsky, Elia Kazan, Howard Da Silva and Karl Malden. Golden Boy quickly became the most successful production 1 in Group Theatre history and was followed in 1939 by the movie of the same name, starring William Holden and Barbara Stanwyck. Since then, there have been countless revivals, including a musical adaptation in 1964 which starred Sammy Davis Jr. Golden Boy certainly merits consideration as one of the classics of modern American drama. 1Harold Clurman, The Fervent Years: The Story of the Group Theatre and the Thirties. (New York: Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich. A Harvest Book, 1975), p. 211. 1 2 The decision to prepare the character of Torn Moody as a thesis project under the direction of Dr. George Gunkle was made during the spring semester of 1980 at which time I was performing a major role in The Knight of the Burning Pestle, a seventeenth century farce written by Beaumont and Fletcher.

  • 'Shadow State'?
    SYARIF HIDAYAT ‘Shadow State’? Business and politics in the province of Banten Our knowledge of the nature of local political leadership in modern democ- racies based on systematic comparative scholarship is limited. This makes it difficult to generalise across political systems. […] Political scientists just have been more interested in their own political system, and in interviewing national politicians than in comparative studies of local leaders. (Eldersveld et al. 1995:1.) The informal market role in rulers’ construction of parallel political authority in the wake of the near total decay of formal state institutions – a Shadow State – is less well known. (William Reno 1995:1.) Introduction The quotations above indicate how few comprehensive studies there are on local politics. Observers tend to focus on the national level. Yet in the Indonesian context, local power relations cannot be understood simply through a formal approach, as they also involve informal networks, includ- ing relations between power holders and business. Therefore, a fuller under- standing requires an approach that can simultaneously comprehend the formal and informal relations. Motivated by a desire to understand more fully the power relations in the conduct of local governance in Indonesia, especially in the post-Suharto era, I decided to undertake this research, with the theme ‘Business and politics in the province of Banten’. My interest grew when one day I found an article in the ‘Nusantara’ column of Kompas daily (4-7-2003), entitled ‘If you’re going to Banten, don’t forget your black clothes’. The writer, ‘Zal’, described the influence of the jawara in the conduct of local government in Banten.1 The 1 Raffles (1965) and M.
