Approxi- mately 1750 students are enrolled each year. Above all, Wellesley strives to provide an excellent edu- cation. Faculty and students have a high regard for scholar- ship, coupled with a concern for contemporary social problems. They share a similar interest in providing an atmosphere for personal growth as well as intellectual achievement. Wellesley's faculty live, for the most part, on or near the campus, and are readily available to students outside of the classroom. The ratio of faculty to students is one to ten. Wellesley College opened in 1875, after years of prep- aration by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Fowie Durant. It was Mr. Durant's hope that by providing educational oppor- tunities of the kind then available only to men that women could prepare themselves for "great conflicts and vast social reforms." This is still the hope and the goal. The College staff tries to implement this goal by working cooperatively with students to effect changes which may be needed. The present College Government, composed of students, faculty and administrators, was created by an Agreement between faculty and students in 1 91 8. Although this Agreement has been amended over the years it still provides the basic framework for change. 13 — THE COLLEGE The College Government legislation assigns to the Senate responsibility for all non-academic matters affecting the student body. Students form a majority of the Senate. Academic affairs are the concern of the Academic Council comprising most of the faculty, some administrators and some students. A Chief Justice, elected from the student body, presides over the judicial system. In addition, students sit on most major policy-making committees, including the President's Advisory Council and the committees of the Board of Trustees. The coming years will bring changes on all college cam- puses, and Wellesley is no exception. Wellesley students will have much of the responsibility for these changes. Wellesley provides the opportunity for both urban and suburban living. It has a beautiful campus. The city is nearby, and students frequently go to the art galleries, to the theatre, shopping, or for volunteer or paid work. Here at Wellesley students can pursue their own inter- ests, whether they are on campus or in town. Wellesley has no specific required courses. The curriculum is arranged so that each student may explore various fields, developing a primary interest which is expressed in the selection of a major program in the last two years. The College has limited cross-registration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology so that Wellesley students may take courses at MIT, and MIT students at Wellesley. Through the Twelve College Exchange Program Wellesley and eleven other colleges exchange students who live and study on another campus for a semester or a year. Wellesley students traditionally come from diverse back- grounds and from many parts of the world besides the United States. In the coming years Wellesley plans to make special efforts to maintain and expand that diversity. Students encounter a wide range of points of view, aca- demic disciplines and special interests which stimulate and strengthen their own combinations of interests and talents. Wellesley has the physical resources to support these interests and talents. The major buildings and sports areas are shown on the campus map, pp. 238—239. They are de- scribed on pp. 37-43. The present College is in marked contrast to the small faculty and student body, the one building, the collection of only 8000 books, and the restricted social life with which Wellesley began. The quiet beauty of the campus remains unchanged after nearly one hundred years while symbolizing the best of the traditional, it provides the setting for change, for innovation, for growth. 14 ADMISSION Criteria for Admission The Board of Admission at Wellesley is composed of representatives of the faculty, the administration and the students. In selecting the candidates who will comprise the kind of student body the College wants, this Board considers a number of factors. The candidate's high school record, rank in class, scholastic aptitude, achievement and intelligence test scores, letters of recommendation from teachers and principals, the student's own statement about herself and her future, and the reports of the staff or alumnae and the student interviewers,

Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Jessica Wolfe Patrick O’Neill Mary Floyd-Wilson Reid Barbour Megan Matchinske ©2019 Jerrod Nathan Rosenbaum ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Jerrod Rosenbaum: Beyond the Bosphorus: The Holy Land in English Reformation Literature, 1516-1596 (Under the direction of Jessica Wolfe) This dissertation examines the concept of the Holy Land, for purposes of Reformation polemics and apologetics, in sixteenth-century English Literature. The dissertation focuses on two central texts that are indicative of two distinct historical moments of the Protestant Reformation in England. Thomas More's Utopia was first published in Latin at Louvain in 1516, roughly one year before the publication of Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses signaled the commencement of the Reformation on the Continent and roughly a decade before the Henrician Reformation in England. As a humanist text, Utopia contains themes pertinent to internal Church reform, while simultaneously warning polemicists and ecclesiastics to leave off their paltry squabbles over non-essential religious matters, lest the unity of the Church catholic be imperiled. More's engagement with the Holy Land is influenced by contemporary researches into the languages of that region, most notably the search for the original and perfect language spoken before the episode at Babel. As the confusion of tongues at Babel functions etiologically to account for the origin of all ideological conflict, it was thought that the rediscovery of the prima lingua might resolve all conflict.

  • THE MYTH of 'TERRIBLE TURK' and 'LUSTFUL TURK' Nevs
    THE WESTERN IMAGE OF TURKS FROM THE MIDDLE AGES TO THE 21ST CENTURY: THE MYTH OF ‘TERRIBLE TURK’ AND ‘LUSTFUL TURK’ Nevsal Olcen Tiryakioglu A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2015 Copyright Statement This work is the intellectual property of the author. You may copy up to 5% of this work for private study, or personal, non-commercial research. Any re-use of the information contained within this document should be fully referenced, quoting the author, title, university, degree level and pagination. Queries or requests for any other use, or if a more substantial copy is required, should be directed in the owner(s) of the Intellectual Property Rights. i Abstract The Western image of Turks is identified with two distinctive stereotypes: ‘Terrible Turk’ and ‘Lustful Turk.’ These stereotypical images are deeply rooted in the history of the Ottoman Empire and its encounters with Christian Europe. Because of their fear of being dominated by Islam, European Christians defined the Turks as the wicked ‘Other’ against their perfect ‘Self.’ Since the beginning of Crusades, the Western image of Turks is associated with cruelty, barbarity, murderousness, immorality, and sexual perversion. These characteristics still appear in cinematic representations of Turks. In Western films such as Lawrence of Arabia and Midnight Express, the portrayals of Turks echo the stereotypes of ‘terrible Turk’ and ‘lustful Turk.’ This thesis argues that these stereotypes have transformed into a myth and continued to exist uniformly in Western contemporary cinema. The thesis attempts to ascertain the uniformity and consistency of the cinematic image of Turks and determine the associations between this image and the myths of ‘terrible Turk’ and ‘lustful Turk.’ To achieve this goal, this thesis examines the trajectory of the Turkish image in Western discourse between the 11th and 21st centuries.

  • The Role of Translation and Interpretation in the Diplomatic Communication Tamas Baranyai
    The role of translation and interpretation in the diplomatic communication Tamas Baranyai Abstract: Present short study is dealing with the languages used for diplomatic purposes throughout the history and at present, and concentrates on the different ways for solving the question of language-related understanding between the actors of diplomacy. Since one of the most commonly used methods is the employment of translators and interpreters, this writing is mainly dedicated to the issues concerning translation and interpretation in diplomatic context. Keywords: diplomatic language, translation, interpretation, heteronymous translator, autonomous translator, linguistic and cultural awareness Introduction Diplomacy whose presence in the history of mankind from the very beginning of civilization has been proved by the archeologists is a formal way of communication between the states. Since in most of the cases the various states use different language or even languages in their internal exchanges, the interstate communication usually meets the challenge of having a common language in order to avoid misunderstandings. This common language used for diplomatic purposes is sometimes called ’diplomatic language’. Although most of the diplomatic lexicons and dictionaries mention and explain the notion of diplomatic language, legally, there has never existed such a language. We should accept the explanation of Pitti-Ferrand according to which a diplomatic language is practically the language used by the parties concerned during the actual international

Bodies of Knowledge: The Presentation of Personified Figures in Engraved Allegorical Series Produced in the Netherlands, 1548-1600 Abstract During the second half of the sixteenth century, engraved series of allegorical subjects featuring personified figures flourished for several decades in the Low Countries before falling into disfavor. Designed by the Netherlandsâ?? leading artists and cut by professional engravers, such series were collected primarily by the urban intelligentsia, who appreciated the use of personification for the representation of immaterial concepts and for the transmission of knowledge, both in prints and in public spectacles. The pairing of embodied forms and serial format was particularly well suited to the portrayal of abstract themes with multiple components, such as the Four Elements, Four Seasons, Seven Planets, Five Senses, or Seven Virtues and Seven Vices. While many of the themes had existed prior to their adoption in Netherlandish graphics, their pictorial rendering had rarely been so pervasive or systematic.
