  • Karun Rasa and Tragic Feeling
    THE TWO SIDES OF A SINGLE COIN: KARUN RASA AND TRAGIC FEELING ANUPAM NAGAR University of North Gujarat, India 91 The tragic feeling (stress mine) is evoked in us when we are in the presence of a character who is ready to lay down his life, if need be, to secure one thing — his sense of personal dignity Arthur Miller, “Tragedy and the Common Man”, New York Times, 27 February 1949 In Sanskrit Poetics (SP) there is a discernible absence of tragedy perhaps on account of its idealistic character. Though conflict is present it is not the type of conflict as perceived between individuals. It is based, rather, on inclination and idealism in which idealism ultimately triumphs. In Indian thought Death is a fantasized happening; the body is prone to decay, while the soul is eternal. The issue then is how do we address Death, even when the manure of rotten leaves gives birth to new shrubs? Death possibly is not the denouement of life. On the contrary Life and Death are corollaries of each other. The second possible reason for SP being idealistic in nature is that here time does not follow a chronological sequence —it is circular in movement (chakravat parivartante). Therefore tragedy along western lines becomes impossible on account of philosophical compulsions. A man here after casting off his body assumes a new form and then takes another when the present body decomposes. This intermittent process goes on and on till he accomplishes total deliverance. And salvation can only be realized after having attained the first three goals of righteousness (dharma), prosperity (artha) and pleasure (kama).

  • Sentiment Analysis of Residents of the Puget Sound on Indigenous Fisheries
    Sound Perspectives: Sentiment Analysis of Residents of the Puget Sound On Indigenous Fisheries By Hailey Kehoe Thommen A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Natural Resources, Forest Ecosystems & Society (Honors Associate) Presented May 24, 2019 Commencement June, 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Hailey Kehoe Thommen for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Natural ​ ​ Resources, Forest Ecosystems & Society presented on May 24, 2019. Title: Sound Perspectives: ​ ​ Sentiment Analysis of Residents of the Puget Sound On Indigenous Fisheries. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Kelly Biedenweg Indigenous management and coordinated co-management of natural resources is an emotionally filled topic, especially for those within the Puget Sound region of Washington, but has yet to be studied in depth from the emotional perspective of residents. This research used sentiment analysis to find the overarching sentiment of indigenous fisheries, how it varies by demographics and level of trust in governance, and frequency of reported fishing. I also sought to identify which primary emotions were most evoked by respondents. From this I found that when people chose to make a free comment, the sentiments were predominantly negative. Demographics did not vary significantly between those evoking positive or negative sentiment, although the few people of color within the sample evoked positive sentiment. Primary emotions evoked by respondents within the negative sentiment group were sadness and disgust, while those within the positive sentiment group expressed trust and joy. These primary emotions of the sentiments groups are directly opposing according to the psychology of emotion theory.

  • Round Table Mental and Social Health During and After Acute Emergencies: Emerging Consensus? Mark Van Ommeren,1 Shekhar Saxena,2 & Benedetto Saraceno3
    Round Table Mental and social health during and after acute emergencies: emerging consensus? Mark van Ommeren,1 Shekhar Saxena,2 & Benedetto Saraceno3 Abstract Mental health care programmes during and after acute emergencies in resource-poor countries have been considered controversial. There is no agreement on the public health value of the post-traumatic stress disorder concept and no agreement on the appropriateness of vertical (separate) trauma-focused services. A range of social and mental health intervention strategies and principles seem, however, to have the broad support of expert opinion. Despite continuing debate, there is emerging agreement on what entails good public health practice in respect of mental health. In terms of early interventions, this agreement is exemplified by the recent inclusion of a “mental and social aspects of health” standard in the Sphere handbook’s revision on minimal standards in disaster response. This affirmation of emerging agreement is important and should give clear messages to health planners.

  • Than Just a Bracelet: the Use of Material Symbolism to Communicate Love
    Scottish Journal of Residential Child Care 2016 – Vol.15, No.3 More than just a bracelet: the use of material symbolism to communicate love Dr Ruth Emond Abstract There is growing recognition of the place of love in residential care for children (Smith, 2009). This paper is a critical analysis of a range of existing research on residential child care as well as studies of material culture and of care relationships more broadly. It argues that, despite increasing regulation and surveillance, adults and children find ways to show and feel love in the context of residential care. Whilst love may be regarded as something to be avoided or indeed prohibited in an adult/child care setting these deep bonds find expression in the everyday life of the children’s home. By looking at love in this embodied way, the ‘realness’ of material things to assert connection and recognition of love (Layne, 2000) is examined. As Gorenstein (1996, p.8) suggests ‘objects…[are] the perfect vehicles for conveying themes that are not commonly accepted in a community’. The paper emphasises the recognition of these symbolic and metaphorical forms of communication in practice.

Amid such a world, if anywhere, our ideals henceforward must find a home. That man is the product of causes which had no provision of the end they were achieving; that his origin, his growth, his hopes and fears, his loves and his beliefs, are but the outcome of accidental collisions of atoms… - Russell Bertrand Before the 19th Century, individuals who studied the natural world were called natural philosophers.

They are taken from "The Virtues Project Educator's Guide: Simple Ways to Create a Culture of Character" Assertiveness Being assertive means being positive and confident. You are aware that you are a worthy person with your own special gifts. You think for yourself and express your own ideas. You know what you stand for and what you won’t stand for. You expect respect. Caring Caring is giving love and attention to people and things that matter to you. When you care about people, you help them. You do a careful job, giving your very best effort. You treat people and things gently and respectfully. Caring makes the world a safer place. Cleanliness Cleanliness means washing often, keeping your body clean, and wearing clean clothes. It is putting into your body and your mind only the things that keep you healthy. It is staying free from harmful drugs. It is cleaning up mistakes and making a fresh start. Commitment Commitment is caring deeply about something or someone. It is deciding carefully what you want to do, then giving it 100%, holding nothing back. You give your all to a friendship, a task, or something you believe in. You finish what you start. You keep your promises. Compassion Compassion is understanding and caring when someone is hurt or troubled, even if you don’t know them. It is wanting to help, even if all you can do is listen and say kind words.

The Statue of Liberty has been a tourist destination, a backdrop for political speeches, and played countless other roles in its 118 year history. Although the intentions of the creators of the Statue of Liberty have been well documented, how various generations since its dedication in 1886 have understood the Statue is less well known. Meanings for the Statue of Liberty have changed over time, and each new meaning has tended to obliterate those of earlier generations.

Essays by scholars Albert Boime and John Tuaranac discuss the significance of the Statue in the history of the visual arts and building technology. This essay discusses the significance of the Statue of Liberty in the history of American politics and popular culture. It suggests research strategies and secondary historical literature that will help researchers and interpreters to situate the Statue in
