According to Provost David Harris, no one was previously responsible for devel- oping and leading the university’s global strategy. Before the senior international officer position existed, Chigas said that it was not easy for Tufts-associated researchers, students and faculty to connect outside of the United States. “There’s a lot to bring together, and part of my role is to help facilitate those connections,” she said.

  • Doru POP the “Trans National Turn”. New Urban Identities
    The “Trans national Turn”. 9 New Urban Identities and theI. TransformationCreating of thethe Romanian Space Contemporary Cinema Doru POP The “Trans national Turn”. New Urban Identities and the Transformation of the Romanian Contemporary Cinema Abstract The pressure of globalization and the transformations of the international film markets are rapidly changing the recent Romanian cinema. In a period spanning from 2010 to 2014, the paper describes same of the most important transformations, visible early on in productions like Marţi după Crăciun (Tuesday after Christmas) and even more importantly in a film like Poziţia copilului (Child’s Pose). The process, called by the author “the transnational turn” of the Romanian film, is characterized by the fact that urban spaces become more and more neutral and generic and the stories are increasingly de-contextualized. Designed for international markets, these films are changing both the set- ting and the mise-en-scène, creating a non specific space which is more likely to be accepted by cinema goers around the world. The second argument is the present generation Romanian cinema makers are moving even further, they are choosing to abandon the national cinema. As Elisabeth Ezra and Terry Rowden noted in their introduction to the classical reader on “transnational cinema”, another major aspect is that the recent films are increasingly indicating a certain “Hollywoodization” of their storytelling, and, implicitly, of the respective urban contexts of their narratives. This impact goes beyond genrefication, and, as is the case with productions like Love building (2013), which are using both cosmopolitan behaviors and non-specific urban activities, are manifestations of deep transformations in the Romanian cinema.

  • Before Entering Upon Mr. Rodman's Own Relation
    Bibliography and Acknowledgements “Before entering upon Mr. Rodman’s own relation, it will not be improper to glance at what has been done by others, in the way of discovery…” —Edgar Allan Poe, Burton’s Gentleman’s Magazine, and Monthly American Review (Philadelphia: William E. Burton) 1840. I am grateful to the persons and authors whose work I have utilized in the making of this one. The debts to M. Verne and Mr. Melville are too extensive to repay, or even adequately to acknowledge. Reading their works has made me the writer – and the person – I am today. My theft here of their creations is not something I will here try to justify. Yet it is true: the worlds that they created have become our worlds. 1 Chapter One contains language and concepts from “Concepts of Stroke Before and after Virchow” by Francis Schiller.1 Descriptions of the Soliton, staring in Chapter Two and continuing throughout, paraphrase Russell’s work on Solitary Waves.2 I’ve also drawn on the Wikipedia entry on Waves of Translation3 as well as the Heriot Watt University Department of Mathematics site.4 Chapter Two also contains specific vocabularies used by the British to render their colonial subjects as Other, as intrinsically murderous: the words Lascar, Dacoit, Dacoity, Thug, and Thuggee were appropriated from Sax Rohmer.5 Chapter Three draws from, and contains sentences from, the 1910 Encyclopedia Britannica article on the Indian Mutiny6, and from contemporaneous 1 Francis Schiller, “Concepts of Stroke Before and after Virchow” in Med. Hist. (1970). 2 John Scott Russell, “Report on Waves,” Report of the fourteenth meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (York: BAAS) September 1844, pp 311-390; John Scott Russell Esq., M.A., F.R.S., “Experimental Researches into the Laws of Certain Hydrodynamical Phenomena that Accompany the Motion of Floating Bodies, and have not previously been reduced into conformity of the known Laws of the Resistance of Fluids” read April 3rd, 1837, published in Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh XIV, 1840.
