  • The Economics of Gender Relations in London City Comedy
    THE ECONOMICS OF GENDER RELATIONS IN LONDON CITY COMEDY BY KRISTIN WEISSE A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS English May, 2015 Winston-Salem, North Carolina Approved By: Sarah Hogan, Ph.D., Advisor Olga Valbuena, Ph.D., Chair Susan Harlan, Ph.D. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank Dr. Hogan— not only for her helpful input and guidance throughout the process of writing this thesis, but also for inspiring my interest in Elizabethan and Jacobean literature through her remarkable energy and enthusiasm. In addition, a special thanks to Dr. Harlan and Dr. Valbuena, whose Renaissance drama classes further solidified my desire to research London city comedy and whose suggestions were also integral to the completion of this project. I am immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such an intelligent and lively group of women. Moreover, I would like to thank my friends and teammates for their constant love and encouragement throughout my entire time as a graduate student at Wake Forest. Thank you especially to my “soulmates” Lizzie and Kelly for the endless trips to Camino (which made thesis writing so much more enjoyable), the ice cream dates, the epic road-trips, and for always being there for me to lean on and to learn from. Thank you also to Sam, Kaitlyn, Kathleen, Aubrey, and Chandler for the constant motivation both intellectually and physically (whether out on the trails, on the track, or even just lounging around the kitchen of 1022 Polo), and for the much-needed distractions from writing and reading.

William Inge begins with an introduc- tion of histories, biographies, and summaries of the move- ment, and his scholarly articles will prove useful for the stu- dent of mysticism. Then he includes in the book many ex- amples of the writings of the 14th century Dominicans, the Friends of God.

Eckhardt, Tauler, and Suso were the major proponents of this theology, and each is represented in Inge©s collection.This book is a unique and convenient volume that will assist readers interested in the fascinating movement of German mysticism.

  • Flowers from a Puritan's Garden
    Flowers from a Puritan's Garden by C. H. Spurgeon Table of Contents Preface Meditations Inspired by Thomas Manton PREFACE While commenting upon the One Hundred and Nineteenth Psalm, I was brought into most intimate communion with Thomas Manton, who has discoursed upon that marvelous portion of Scripture with great fullness and power. His works occupy twenty-two volumes in the modern reprint—a mighty mountain of sound theology. They mostly consist of sermons—but what sermons! There is not a poor discourse in the whole collection: he is constantly excellent. Ministers who do not know Manton, need not wonder if they are themselves unknown. Here, then, is a man whose figures will be sure to be usable by the earnest preacher who has forsworn the baubles of rhetoric, and aims at nothing but the benefit of his hearers. I thought it worth while to go through volume after volume, and mark the metaphors; and then I resolved to complete the task by culling all the best figures out of the whole of Manton's works. Thus my clearing his house of all his pictures, and hanging them up in new frames of my own. I do not rob him, but I bless him by giving him another opportunity of speaking. To make this little book more generally acceptable, I have thrown it into a somewhat devotional form, using Manton's figures as texts for brief meditations: this I humbly hope may be found profitable for reading in the chamber of private worship. The latter half of the work was composed in the gardens and olive- groves of Mentone, where I found it a pleasure to muse, and compose.

  • The Secret Circle
    SECRET CIRCLE Pilot Written by Andrew Miller Draft Date: February 3rd, 2011 SECRET CIRCLE TEASER EXT. ROAD - NIGHT A long winding street somewhere in small town, USA. The road is empty when a car FLIES by. Florida plates. INT. CAR - NIGHT Behind the wheel is CASSIE BLAKE, 16, having a private moment with the STEREO. Singing her heart out. Something she’d never do around anyone else. But alone -- she’s a rock star. An extremely off-key rock star. Ridiculously cute. CLOSE ON HER FACE. A scrubbed clean natural beauty. She has that loner stare. All question and doubt. She’s startled by a HONKING HORN. Headlights blind. As a car WHIZZES by, passing her. She road rages. CASSIE C’mon. Really? Asshole. But then -- her front wheel EXPLODES. A blowout. The car jerks and skids, careening off the road. Cassie responds instantly. She lets off the gas, turns into the skid, and the car jerks and grinds to a stop. EXT. SIDE OF THE ROAD - NIGHT Cassie gets out, looks to her front tire. It’s flat. Cassie groans in frustration. Looks around. Lots of trees. Houses in the distance. Not a lot of options. But then-- She sees a car IDLING half a block up the road. The same one that passed her. It just sits there. As if watching. She can’t make out who’s behind the wheel. She calls out. CASSIE Hey... Can I get a...? The car quickly speeds away. Fuck you very much. Cassie goes back to her car, reaches in for her cell phone.

  • “I Used to Be a Slave”: Boyhood and Adolescence in Indiana (1816-1830)
    Chapter Two “I Used to be a Slave”: Boyhood and Adolescence in Indiana (1816-1830) In 1817, a British traveler described Indiana as “a vast forest, larger than England, just penetrated in places, by the back-wood settlers, who are half hunters, half farmers.”i Late in the previous year, Thomas Lincoln, his wife, and their two children entered the Buck Horn Valley of that state, which had just been admitted to the Union.ii The family’s journey from Kentucky was arduous, relentlessly exposing them to the rigors of camping out on cold winter nights.
