  • Affective Communities in Late-Medieval Iberian Literature
    AFFECTIVE COMMUNITIES IN LATE-MEDIEVAL IBERIAN LITERATURE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Henry Samuel Berlin August 2011 © 2011 Henry Samuel Berlin AFFECTIVE COMMUNITIES IN LATE-MEDIEVAL IBERIAN LITERATURE Henry Samuel Berlin, Ph.D. Cornell University 2011 My dissertation offers a new account of the explosion of sentimental literature in fifteenth-century Iberia and, at the same time, suggests a new way of reading that literature. Through the concept of the affective community, which suggests that political, religious, and literary communities (genres) are held together and shaped not so much by shared emotion as by a shared ethical attitude toward emotion, I analyze exemplary works of the principal genres involved in this explosion: cancionero poetry and sentimental fiction. Other important genres such as the chronicle and chivalric fiction also play key roles in my analysis, and my approach throughout is comparative, dealing substantially with works not only from Castile, but also from the kingdoms of Portugal and Aragon. The most important texts in the dissertation are Pedro de Corral‘s Crónica sarracina (ca. 1430); Pedro, Constable of Portugal‘s Sátira de felice e infelice vida (ca. 1450); and the poetry of Ausiàs March (ca. 1397-1459). However, I also discuss moral, theological, and political treatises by crucial figures such as Alonso de Cartagena (1384-1456); Alfonso de Madrigal, el Tostado (1410-1455); Rodrigo Sánchez de Arévalo (ca. 1404-1470); Diego de Valera (1412-1488); Duarte I of Portugal (1391-1438); and the Infante Pedro, Duke of Coimbra (1392-1449).

  • Religion and Cornell University's Foundation
    GODS AND SCHOLARS: RELIGION AND CORNELL UNIVERSITY’S FOUNDATION MYTH 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 Fredrika Louise Loew August 2016 © 2016 [Fredrika Louise Loew] ABSTRACT Cornell University’s foundation narrative focuses intensely on the nonsectarian clause in the institution’s charter, with the ‘godless’ nature of the university and its commitment to secularism forming the basis of the narrative. Though parts of the narrative are true, Cornell’s Protestant-heavy founding and early relationships with religion have been left out. This paper examines Cornell University’s primary archival material from 1865 to 1890 and secondary sources and reconstructs the religious foundation narrative of the university, which takes into account the strong Christian ethics upon which the university was in fact founded. In addition, the paper discusses the initial desire for a secular university, as well as investigates broader issues of identity reappropriation and analyzes the differences between the accepted narrative of Cornell’s foundation myth and the primary texts. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Fredrika Loew received her Bachelor’s degree in Archaeology and Near Eastern Studies from Cornell University in 2012. During her senior year, she began working as a Collections Assistant and Processor in Cornell’s Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, where she has been working ever since. In the fall of 2014, she entered the Employee Degree Program to pursue her Master’s degree from the Cornell Institute for Archaeology and Material Studies with a focus on museology and religious studies.

    Cornell University Elaine D. Engst The Cornell University [Detail]. Wood engraving from Harper’s Weekly, June, 1873. Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library On April 27, 1865, New York State Governor Reuben E. Fenton, in his chambers in the old State Capitol in Albany, signed the bill that constitutes the charter of Cornell University. The ideals of the founders, Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, were remarkable in their day and constituted a radical educational experiment. They have continued to inspire Cornell's distinctive evolution. In the small rural community of Ithaca, New York, can be seen the realization of the first truly American university. The founders themselves were extraordinary men. Ezra Cornell, a birthright Quaker and self- educated and self-made man, was the son of a farmer and potter. His belief in education fits with William Penn’s ideal of “liberal” but “useful” learning. His interest in practical and scientific subjects corresponded with Friends’ emphasis on the natural sciences and mathematics. His commitment to coeducation reflected enlightened Quaker views on education for girls. While Cornell University has always been a non-sectarian university, it seems clear that Ezra Cornell’s Quaker background and upbringing had a profound influence on the founding and development of the university. 2 Ezra Cornell.

  • Memorial Statements of the Cornell University Faculty 1970-1979 Volume 5
    Memorial Statements of the Cornell University Faculty 1970-1979 Volume 5 Memorial Statements of the Cornell University Faculty The memorial statements contained herein were prepared by the Office of the Dean of the University Faculty of Cornell University to honor its faculty for their service to the university. Milo Richmond, proofreader J. Robert Cooke, editor ©2010 Cornell University, Office of the Dean of the University Faculty All Rights Reserved Published by the Internet-First University Press Founded by J. Robert Cooke and Kenneth M. King The contents are openly accessible online at ecommons.library.cornell.edu/handle/1813/62 Preface The custom of honoring each deceased faculty member through a memorial statement was established in 1868, just after the founding of Cornell University. Annually since 1938, the Office of the Dean of the Faculty has produced a memorial booklet which is sent to the families of the deceased and also filed in the university archives. We are now making the entire collection of memorial statements (1868 through 2009) readily available online and, for convenience, are grouping these by the decade in which the death occurred, assembling the memorials alphabetically within the decade. The Statements for the early years (1868 through 1938, assembled by Dean Cornelius Betten and now enlarged to include the remaining years of the 1930s, are in volume one. Many of these entries also included retirement statements; when available, these follow the companion memorial statement in this book. A CD version has also been created. A few printed archival copies are being bound and stored in the Office of the Dean of the Faculty and in the Rare and Manuscript Collection in Kroch Library.

  • “Sprouting the Seeds of Darwinism”: a History of Evolution at Cornell University in the Nineteenth Century
    33 | Ezra’s Archives “Sprouting the Seeds of Darwinism”: A History of Evolution at Cornell University in the Nineteenth Century 1 Zachary Newkirk Imagine Charles Darwin’s excitement as he unwrapped the package from his publisher on November 3, 1859. His manuscript, which had consumed him for months and through ill health, was finally a book. He wrote back to his publisher saying, “I am infinitely pleased and proud of the appearance of my child.”2 Among his original concerns about the Origin of Species were the 1250 original copies on which Darwin feared his publisher would lose money. The books sold in a single day. “I am astounded at your news of sale,” he wrote to the publisher. “I do rejoice that you have not have cause to repent of publishing; at one time I was extremely fearful [and] annoyed at thought that you might repent.”3 It seems unusual to see Darwin’s fear over such trivial matters. Today we often equate his name with other novel scientific thinkers like Newton and Einstein. The theories he wrote and published in his “child” shook the foundations of science and influenced the natural sciences ever since. But before the book’s public debut, Darwin expressed some 1 Zachary Newkirk sends many thanks to the staff of the Cornell University Rare and Manuscript Collection in Kroch Library in Ithaca, New York. In particular, he thanks Laura Linke and David Corson for their tremendous help and enthusiasm for the subject. Thanks to Trais Pearson, the teaching assistant for the course taught by Professor William B.
