Ford is the author of the World Fantasy Award-winning The Dragon Waiting and "Winter Solstice, Camelot Station", Nebula Award finalist Fugue State, and a wide range of science fiction and fantasy novels, stories, poetry and songs, including Growing Up Weightless, the Casting Fortune collection and other tales set in the Liavek shared world, and How Much For Just The Planet?

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE Fight Like a Girl: A Qualitative Content Analysis of How Superheroines are Portrayed in Comic Books A graduate project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology By Kimberly Romero December 2020 Copyright by Kimberly Romero 2020 ii The graduate project of Kimberly Romero is approved: _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Michael Carter Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Stacy Missari Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Moshoula Capous-Desyllas, Chair Date California State University, Northridge iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to start off by acknowledging my parents for braving through a civil war, poverty, pain, political criticisms, racial stereotypes, and the constant bouts of uncertainty that immigrating to the United States, seeking asylum from the dangers plaguing their home country of El Salvador, has presented them with throughout the years. If it were not for your sacrifices, we would not have the lives and opportunities we have now. Having your constant love and support means the world to me. You are both my North Stars for everything I do. I would also like to acknowledge my sister for convincing Mom and Dad to let you name me after two of your greatest childhood role models, superheroines, and cultural icons. The Pink Power Ranger and The Queen of Tejano music are both pretty huge namesakes to live up to. I hope I do their legacies justice and that I am making you proud. I know I do not say this to you often but know that, through all our ups and downs, you were my hero growing up.

  • Title of Dissertation
    PANIC ON THE BRITISH BORDERLANDS: THE GREAT GOD PAN, VICTORIAN SEXUALITY, AND SACRED SPACE IN THE WORKS OF ARTHUR MACHEN A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Jeffrey Michael Renye January, 2013 Examining Committee Members: Daniel T. O’Hara, Advisory Chair, Department of English Sheldon Brivic, Department of English Talissa Ford, Department of English Robert L. Caserio, External Member, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park © Copyright 2013 by Jeffrey Michael Renye All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT From the late Victorian period to the early twentieth century, Arthur Machen’s life and his writing provide what Deleuze and Guattari argue to be the value of the minor author: Contemporary historical streams combine in Machen’s fiction and non-fiction. The concerns and anxieties in the writing reflect significant developments in their times, and exist amid the questions incited by positivist science, sexological studies, and the dissemination and popularity of Darwin’s theories and the interpretations of Social Darwinism: What is the integrity of the human body, and what are the relevance and varieties of spiritual belief. The personal and the social issues of materiality and immateriality are present in the choice of Machen’s themes and the manner in which he expresses them. More specifically, Machen’s use of place and his interest in numinosity, which includes the negative numinous, are the twining forces where the local and the common, and the Ideal and the esoteric, meet. His interest in Western esotericism is important because of the Victorian occult revival and the ritual magic groups’ role in the development of individual psychic explorations.
