  • Playing Hippies and Indians: Acts of Cultural Colonization in the Theatre of the American Counterculture
    PLAYING HIPPIES AND INDIANS: ACTS OF CULTURAL COLONIZATION IN THE THEATRE OF THE AMERICAN COUNTERCULTURE Miriam Hahn 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 August 2014 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Sheri Wells-Jensen, Graduate Faculty Representative Eileen Cherry-Chandler Scott Magelssen © 2014 Miriam Hahn All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor In this dissertation, I examine the appropriation of Native American cultures and histories in the theatre of the American counterculture of the 1960s and seventies, using the Living Theatre’s Paradise Now, the street theatricals and broadsides of the San Francisco Diggers, and James Rado and Gerome Ragni’s Hair: The American Tribal- Love Rock Musical as my primary case studies. Defining themselves by points of difference from mainstream America and its traditional social and cultural values, counterculturalists often attempted to align themselves with Native Americans in order to express an imagined sense of shared otherness. Representations of Natives on countercultural stages, however, were frequently steeped in stereotype, and they often depicted Native cultures inaccurately, elided significant tribal differences, and relegated Native identity almost wholly to the past, a practice that was particularly problematic in light of concurrent Native rights movements that were actively engaged in bringing national attention to the contemporary issues and injustices Native Americans faced on a daily basis. In my study, I analyze the impulses that might have led counterculturalists to appropriate Native culture during this period, highlighting some of the ways in which such appropriations played out in Paradise Now and Hair, as well as on the streets of San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district.

  • Archetypical Artificial Lighting Practices in Contemporary Interior Design
    THEORY STUDIES: ARCHETYPICAL ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING PRACTICES IN CONTEMPORARY INTERIOR DESIGN A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Joanne Pui Yuk Kwan February 2010 © 2010 Joanne Pui Yuk Kwan ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on identifying, classifying and naming unnamed artificial lighting archetypes in contemporary, professionally designed interiors that are derived from reiterative historical designs. The study is a component of the Intypes (Interior Archetypes) Research and Teaching Project established in 1997 at Cornell University. An Intype is an ideal example of a historical determined practice of design from which similar models are derived, emulated or reiterated. In the 20th century lighting design became a field and an area of specialization in interior design, architecture and engineering. Lighting is a subject of many books and design literature often alludes to its importance. Many of the studies focus on the phenomenon of light itself, including issues related to perception and technical requirements. Although there are some case studies of individual projects, there is little scholarship about lighting for contract interior design. Accounts of the history of interior spaces primarily focus on lighting fixtures or light sources. This study is one of the few of its kind; it creates a typology of the professional design and architectural practices of artificial lighting in interior spaces. The study identifies and documents lighting solutions that have been reiterated through time and contributes to a vocabulary for teaching and comparative analysis. This research offers practice-based research which may encourage design criticism and discourse in both academia and professional practice.

  • The History of the Surgical Service at San Francisco General Hospital
    THE HISTORY OF THE SURGICAL SERVICE AT SAN FRANCISCO GENERAL HOSPITAL William Schecter, Robert Lim, George Sheldon, Norman Christensen, William Blaisdell i DEDICATION This book is dedicated to our patient and understanding wives Gisela Schecter, Carolee Lim, Ruth Sheldon, Sally Christensen, and Marilyn Blaisdell. Their help and support not only made our careers possible but also ensured that they would be successful. ii PREFACE I was delighted and honored to be asked to assist in the publication of this landmark book on the History of Surgery in the San Francisco General Hospital. The authors are to be commended on their accurate, readable and historic portrayal of the evolution of this center of excellence in trauma and general surgical patient care. As I read through the manuscript, it brought back warm and clear memories of days spent here both as a junior medical student and later as a resident in the University of California, San Francisco surgical program. It presents an impressive timeline of surgeons who have taught here, a number of whom have moved on and become outstanding leaders in the field of surgery. After 40 years of practice as a surgeon, I look back on my training here at this hospital as one of the most important contributors to my overall surgical and medical education. This hospital and its surgical staff imbued me with the essential knowledge and technical skills necessary to be an accomplished general surgeon and, most importantly, they taught me the value of seeking advice from a more experienced specialist when the occasion arose. I feel certain that every surgeon, who during their training has passed through the portals of San Francisco General Hospital, will also find in this book a powerful reminder of how important it has been in their life.

THE FALSE PROMISE OF ADOLESCENT BRAIN SCIENCE IN JUVENILE JUSTICE Terry A. Maroney* Recent scientific findings about the developing teen brain have both captured public attention and begun to percolate through legal theory and practice. Indeed, many believe that developmental neuroscience contributed to the U.S. Supreme Court's elimination of the juvenile death penalty in Roper v. Simmons. Post-Roper, scholars assert that the developmentally normal attributes of the teen brain counsel differential treatment of young offenders, and advocates increasingly make such arguments before the courts. The success of any theory, though, depends in large part on implementation, and challenges that emerge through implementation illuminate problematic aspects of the theory. This Article tests the legal impact of developmental neuroscience by analyzing cases in which juvenile defendants have attempted to put it into practice.It reveals that most such efforts fail.
