  • The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen
    Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Howard Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen This dissertation analyzes the three main protagonists of Lucan’s Bellum Civile through their attempts to utilize, resist, or match a pattern of action which I call the “formula.” Most evident in Caesar, the formula is a cycle of alternating states of energy that allows him to gain a decisive edge over his opponents by granting him the ability of perpetual regeneration. However, a similar dynamic is also found in rivers, which thus prove to be formidable adversaries of Caesar in their own right. Although neither Pompey nor Cato is able to draw on the Caesarian formula successfully, Lucan eventually associates them with the river-derived variant, thus granting them a measure of resistance (if only in the non-physical realm). By tracing the development of the formula throughout the epic, the dissertation provides a deeper understanding of the importance of natural forces in Lucan’s poem as well as the presence of an underlying drive that unites its fractured world.

  • Reading Narratives of Specular Mourning in Victorian Fiction
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship ‘Distempered Visions’: Reading Narratives of Specular Mourning in Victorian Fiction A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH BY SOPHIE FRAZER MARCH 2018 For the award of a PhD Department of English The University of Sydney 1 Abstract This thesis questions the phenomenological force and function of mourning in the fiction of Charlotte Brontë and George Eliot, bringing together models of contemporary visuality with modalities of loss, to emphasise a dialectic of affective pain as intimate vision. While Victorian visual culture has been substantially addressed by recent scholarship, there remains a paucity of investigation into what I read as an optic chiasmus of altered modes of seeing and modes of feeling. With a focus on two of the key novelists of the period, I have selected four novels that are fascinated by the nature of warped vision and blindness, questioning how literature might depict mourning in a world newly crowded by the visual. From this starting point, I examine the ways in which both novelists appropriated optical tropes to articulate the lived experience of a traumatised consciousness. The mourning subject becomes the site of specular, phantasmal inquiry in their works, and thus my own method follows the conditions of this connection. This particularised account of the themes of loss and mourning has not been significantly addressed in the scholarship, despite the fact that all four texts explicitly emphasise subjective trauma.

  • Two Accounts of Laws and Time Barry Loewer (Rutgers) (To Appear Philosophical Studies)
    Two Accounts of Laws and Time Barry Loewer (Rutgers) (to appear Philosophical Studies) Abstract for “Two Accounts of Laws and Time” Among the most important questions in the metaphysics of science are “What are the natures of fundamental laws and chances?” and “What grounds the direction of time? My aim in this paper is to examine some connections between these questions, discuss two approaches to answering them and argue in favor of one. Along the way I will raise and comment on a number of issues concerning the relationship between physics and metaphysics and consequences for the subject matter and methodology of metaphysics. Key Words: laws, chance, time’s arrows, Humeanism, David Lewis, David Albert, Tim Maudlin. Among the most important questions in the metaphysics of science are “What are the natures of fundamental laws and chances?” and “What grounds the direction of time? My aim in this paper is to examine some connections between these questions, discuss two approaches to answering them and argue in favor of one. Along the way I will raise and comment on a number of issues concerning the relationship between physics and metaphysics and consequences for the subject matter and methodology of metaphysics. I. Preliminary metaphysical map: The main division in the metaphysics of laws and chances is between accounts that are broadly Humean and those that are broadly non-Humean. Humean views are so-called because like Hume, or rather the standard view of Hume, they eschew fundamental nomological modalities.1 Contemporary Humeans about laws hold that the totality of the universe consists of the distribution of fundamental categorical properties/quantities and relations instantiated by fundamental entities (particles, fields etc.) throughout all of space- time.

  • An Exploration of Doppelganger As Found in the Music and Text Of
    ii © 2008 Terri L. Brown All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan L. Chambers, Advisor This study explores the use of, and reaction to, the music used in Susan Glaspell’s The Verge. Through close textual and musical analysis, and by extension, historical investigation, the argument is made that Glaspell’s The Verge is a virtual “shadow” play, or doppelganger, of Jacques Offenbach’s opera The Tales of Hoffman, from which some of the music is taken. The exploration further contends that through the use of the hymn, Nearer, My God, To Thee, by Lowell Mason and Sarah Flower Adams, Glaspell also extends a vision of gender relations that reaches far beyond Hoffman’s misogynistic, patriarchal space insofar as it creates a compellingly powerful religious viewpoint: an embodiment of the Christian Godhead, as a precursor to the late twentieth century social and existential feminist perspective. iv The dissertation is dedicated to my wonderful husband and eternal companion David, and my two beautiful daughters, Madison and Mackenzie, who have personally sacrificed more than anyone could ever know to help me achieve my personal goals. I will be forever grateful to each of you, now and always. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank all those who have helped me complete this monumental task: to Jonathan Chambers for being not only a great advisor, teacher, writer, and scholar, but for being a wonderful human being throughout the process; to Ronald Shields and Lesa Lockford for helping me believe that I could actually do this; to Scott Robinson, Department Chair of Theatre Arts at Central Washington University, for his constant support, both personally and professionally – I will follow you anywhere; to Leslee Caul, my incredibly talented editor, and colleague – but most of all, my friend.

  • Schrödinger's Cape: the Quantum Seriality of the Marvel Multiverse William Proctor, University of Bournemouth, UK. on The
    Schrödinger’s Cape: The Quantum Seriality of the Marvel Multiverse William Proctor, University of Bournemouth, UK. On the surface, quantum physics and narrative theory are not easy bedfellows. In fact, some may argue that the two fields are incommensurable paradigms and any attempt to prove otherwise would be a foolhardy endeavour, more akin to intellectual trickery and sleight-of- hand than a prism with which to view narrative systems. Yet I find myself repeatedly confronted by these two ostensibly incompatible theories converging as I explore the vast narrative networks associated with fictional world-building -- most notably those belonging to comic book multiverses of Marvel and DC Comics which, Nick Lowe argues “are the largest narrative constructions in human history (exceeding, for example, the vast body of myth, legend and story that underlies Greek and Latin literature)” (Kaveney, 25). Contemporary quantum theory postulates that the universe is not a singular body progressing linearly along a unidirectional spatiotemporal pathway – as exponents of the Newtonian classic physics model believe – but, rather, a multiverse comprised of alternate worlds, parallel dimensions and multiple timelines. Both Marvel and bête noire DC Comics embrace the multiverse concept that allows multiple iterations, versions and reinterpretations of their character populations to co-exist within a spatiotemporal framing principle that shares remarkable commonalities with the quantum model. Where Marvel and DC deviate from one another, however, is that the latter utilises the conceit as an intra-medial model for its panoply of comic books; whereas, conversely, the Marvel multiverse functions as a transmedia firmament that encapsulates an entire catalogue within its narrative rubric, a strategy that is analogous with the quantum paradigm.

  • Kenneth Arrow's Contributions to General
    Kenneth Arrow’s Contributions to General Equilibrium John Geanakoplos It is not easy to separate the significance and influence of the Arrow-Debreu model of general equilibrium from that of mathematical economics itself. In an extraordinary series of papers and books (1951, 1954, 1959, 1971), Ken Arrow and Gerard Debreu settled two of the oldest and most important questions of economics through arguments at least as elegant as any that have ever been given in all of economics, using the techniques of convexity and fixed point theory that are still, after sixty-five years, the most important mathematical devices in mathematical economics. More than any other, their model crystallized the mathematical-axiomatic approach that transformed economics from a field not much more mathematical than its sister social sciences like sociology and psychology into a discipline with the same mathematical rigor as physics and the other hard sciences.1 The Arrow Debreu model was simple enough to be understood immediately by mathematicians with no training in economics, yet general enough, given ever subtler interpretations of the notion of commodity, to encompass a large fraction of economics known up until that time, as special cases. Moreover, many subsequent developments in economics could be cast as elementary relaxations of the Arrow-Debreu framework. Today general equilibrium plays an absolutely central role in fields as diverse as international trade, public finance, development, finance, and macroeconomics. When we consider that Arrow not only derived the most fundamental properties of the model (along with Debreu, and McKenzie), but also provided the most significant interpretive extensions, it is no wonder that he remains the youngest Nobel Prize winner in economics.

Dissertations (2009 -). Paper 181. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/181 A VICTORIAN CHRISTMAS IN HELL: YULETIDE GHOSTS AND NECESSARY PLEASURES IN THE AGE OF CAPITAL by Brandon Chitwood A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2012 ABSTRACT A VICTORIAN CHRISTMAS IN HELL: YULETIDE GHOSTS AND NECESSARPLEASURES IN THE AGE OF CAPITAL Brandon Chitwood Marquette University, 2012 This dissertation explores how the cultural and literary development – one might argue, creation – of a specifically Victorian Christmas arose in response to social anxieties related to the expansion of industrial capitalism, Darwinian theories of evolution, and the increasingly problematic definition of the family during the nineteenth century in Britain. Using a Lacanian psychoanalytic lens, the dissertation explores how the liminal figure of the ghost pervades the literary narrativization of the Christmas holiday, and how such ghosts provided uncanny comforts to a reading public increasingly horrified by social, economic, and natural forces seemingly beyond their control. The dissertation argues that the success of the literary institution of Christmas as a necessary assurance of cultural pleasure in the face of social anxiety has made it perhaps the most long-lived of Victorian artifacts. Indeed, the importance of Christmas to our late capitalist present suggests post-modernity is not so far removed from Victorian sensibilities as we might suspect.
