EDWARD S. JOYNES, XI. VoL. X. OCTOBER, 1900. No.1. @ o:qtri:bb tio:qs. EDWARDS. JOYNES, A.M., LL.D. Dr. Edward S. Joynes, Professor of Modern Languages in the South Carolina College, was born in Accomack coun­ ty, on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, in 1834. He entered Delaware College and remained there the session of 1848- '49, and studied at Concord Academy, Virginia, 1849-'50. He then entered the University of Virginia, where he re­ ceived the degree of A. B. in 1852, and A. M. in 1853. From 1853-'56 Mr. Joynes was Assistant Professor of Ancient Languages at the University of Virginia. He was a student in the classical courses at Berlin University 1856-'58. Upon his return to the United States, he be­ came Professor of Greek and German in William and Mary College, which position he held until 1865. During the civil war he was Chief Clerk in the Confederate States War Department, 1861-'63. H~ was instructor in Modern Languages in Hollins Instit.ute, Virginia, 1863-'65. He occupied the chair of Modern Languages and English in Washington College, (and Washington and Lee Univer­ sity), 1866-'75; in Vanderbilt University, 1875-'78; in the University of Tennessee. 1878-'82 ; in the South Carolina College, 1882-'87. When the college became the Univer- 2 THE SHIELD AND DIAlllOND. sity in 1887, Dr. Joynes was made Professor of Modern Languages, and has since held that chair in the institu­ tion. Delaware College made Dr. Joynes an L. L. D. in 1875, and in 1878 William and Mary College conferred the same degree upon him. In addition to professional and autorial labors, Dr. Joynes has been distinguished for active co-operation in public school work, especially for work in the interests of normal schools in Virginia, Tennessee and South Caro­ lina. He is said tp have drawn in 1864 the first plan for a normal school in the south. He is one of the founders and trustees of the Winthrop Normal and Industrial Col­ lege of South Carolina. As an author and an educator Dr. Joynes has a national reputation. His text books are used in many of the larg­ est Universities and Colleges of the country. At various times, by published essays, lectures and addresses, he bas contributed to educational literature. Among the books of which Dr. Joynes is either author or editor, are Joynes -Otto's French and German Series; Classic French Plays, (Corneille, Racine. Moliere); Minimum French Grammar and Reader; Schiller's Maria Stuart; George Sand's La Mare au Diable (H. Holt & Co., New York); French Fairy Tales; Joynes-Meissner's German Grammar; German Reader, Schiller's Der Geisterseher; Zschocke's Der Zer­ brochene Krug; Jensen's Die Braune Erika (D. C. Heath & Co., Boston). Dr. Joynes is warmly devoted to his work in the South Carolina College and in South Carolina, and has in recent years repeatedly declined the use of his name for positions elsewhere. At sixty-five years of age he seems to be still in the prime of life, and is working as both teacher and author, with undiminished activity and enthusiasm.- Tlu~ Garnet and Black, &uth Carolina College Annual, 1899.

  • Militarism, Security, and War: the Politics of Contemporary Hollywood Superheroes
    MILITARISM, SECURITY, AND WAR: THE POLITICS OF CONTEMPORARY HOLLYWOOD SUPERHEROES LORI ANN CROWE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST 2018 © LORI ANN CROWE, 2018 Abstract In the fields of political science and international relations, engagement with popular culture has been deemed predominantly un-important and irrelevant as an area of study. This dissertation interrogates one of the most popular cultural icons of the early 21st century, the fictional Hollywood superhero, and asks what it does for us to take seriously that which is often deemed frivolous entertainment. Understanding the superhero as a political entity in and of itself, this project reveals the mutually constitutive relationship between its production, consumption and reproduction and particular ideologies around militarism, security and war. Acknowledging the complexities of superhero characters, narratives, and aesthetics such as subversive and contested elements, this project reveals superheroes as potential sites of political and ideological reflection, articulation, constitution, and transgression. This project demonstrates that a pop cultural/aesthetic approach to IR can enable critical practices that contribute to complicating and enhancing our understandings of war and politics. ii Table of Contents Abstract ………………………………………………………………………………….. ii Table of Contents ……………………………………………………………………….
