  • The Oral Histories of Three Retired African American
    THE ORAL HISTORIES OF THREE RETIRED AFRICAN AMERICAN SUPERINTENDENTS FROM GEORGIA by GARRICK ARION ASKEW (UNDER the Direction of Sally J. Zepeda) ABSTRACT This study included the oral histories of three retired African American superintendents who were natives of Georgia. The participants had professional careers that collectively spanned 54 years, beginning as teachers and moving into administrative positions including the superintendency. This study used archival documents, newspaper reports, and research and literature on segregation, desegregation, and career mobility to provide context for the participants’ oral histories. Three research questions guided the interviews for this study: 1. How did each of the participants first enter education? 2. How were the participants able to ascend to the superintendency in light of challenges that they faced as African American school administrators? 3. What was the experience of being an African American educator and school administrator in Georgia school districts? The data revealed common factors in the career experiences of the participants. Common factors included childhood mentoring in segregated K-12 schools, segregated schools as extended families, self image and life skills training, and academic preparation at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Other common factors influencing the participants were professional mentoring at HBCUs, experiences with career mobility processes, school desegregation as the impetus for advancement, financial challenges of the superintendency,

    Our Black América: Transnational Racial Identities in Twentieth-Century Cuba and Brazil Anne Marie Guarnera Arlington, VA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2010 Bachelor of Arts, Bryn Mawr College, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese University of Virginia May, 2017 Professor Gustavo Pellón Professor Eli Carter Professor Anne Garland Mahler Professor Brian Owensby Guarnera 2 Acknowledgements As the saying goes, “it takes a village to raise a child.” To raise two young children while writing a dissertation takes a veritable army. During the three years that I have chipped away at this project, my very own army of advisors, friends, and family members have encouraged and supported me, and I would like to recognize their important contributions to this project. My advisor, Gustavo Pellón, has believed in this project from the very beginning, and has devoted significant amounts of his time and energy to seeing it through. From helping me to secure funding for my archival research, to tutoring me in Cuban literature and history, to patiently entertaining my (many) questions about how to approach a project of this magnitude, he has been a constant source of support and encouragement to me. Professor Eli Carter has also been essential to this project, sharing with me his expertise in Brazilian culture and literature and providing me with feedback on my writing that has sharpened my skills both as a thinker and as a writer. Professor Brian Owensby’s seminar on historical method, which I took during my last semester of coursework at UVa, made me have second thoughts about not having pursued my PhD in History! I was privileged to learn from Professor Owensby about historical empathy, rigorous historical hermeneutics, and the strategic value of a footnote—all things that I have done my best to put to use in this dissertation.

  • 'An Ancient Tale New Told' Shakespeare's Use of Folk- AND
    ‘An ancient tale new told’ Shakespeare’s use of folk- and Fairy Tales as Sources for his Plays Submitted by Ciara Rawnsley BA (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities The University of Western Australia Crawley, WA 6009 Australia August 2013 ABSTRACT hakespeare drew inspiration for his plays from a wealth of different sources, but the ones usually discussed are in written, literary forms which are still accessible: the chronicles of Holinshed and Plutarch’s The Lives of the Noble Greeks and Romans, Ovid’s Metamorphoses and popular romance, Italian novelle pre-eminently. What has long been neglected, however, is the abundance of traditional oral stories in circulation during Shakespeare’s youth: folk- and fairy tales in particular. This thesis aims to identify and explore Shakespeare’s reliance on this major, though largely unrecorded, well of inspiration, and argues that the playwright made frequent use of folktale plotlines, motifs, and figures in his plays, often superimposing several folk stories in one drama. This may partly explain why Shakespeare has so often been adapted for children, by writers from Charles and Mary Lamb to the present day. The thesis proposes, moreover, that Shakespeare not only drew on the narrative patterns and plots of folktales, but that he also utilised the powerful but latent emotional subtexts such tales encode. This is particularly evident in All’s Well That Ends Well and Cymbeline, the two plays discussed in detail, which have proved theatrically effective but have always puzzled critics, arguably because their links with folktales have not been investigated.
