  • Melissa Seecharan Signs in the Sand by the Time I Sealed the Very Last
    Seecharan 1 Melissa Seecharan Signs in the Sand By the time I sealed the very last moving box, the bedroom blinds had begun to slash the afternoon sunlight, casting all sorts of stripes across my wooden, bedroom floor. I leaned backwards, straight into a pile of clunky shipping containers, each one prodding at me. Regardless, I remained seated on the floor, watching as hazes of fine dust floated aimlessly above the mound of surrounding cardboard, like flocks of vagrant particles. The hum of industrious air-conditioning unit became an unremitting monotone. Somewhere in the distance, a car door slammed. I snapped out of it. Nikolai. The red hulk of his Toyota Camry gleaned from its position in the driveway. I changed quickly, grabbed my backpack, and tucked the last bit of my babysitting money into my jeans’ back pocket. I waited until my mother’s voice sounded from the foyer, before wading through the waist-high boxes and rushing out of the room, leaving the mountainous containers behind. I completely lost track of the time. He stood at the entrance, one hand in his pocket, conversing casually with my mother. His blue eyes sparkled wildly with enthusiasm, and the hovering sun highlighted strands of his golden hair. A grin spread across his face when I came flying down the stairs. “Sorry,” I breathed, still trying to free my hair from the sloppy bun sagging down my head. “I didn’t think it would take me this long.” “I can come back later,” Nikolai offered. “Or I could help you, if you need it.” “Oh, don’t worry about it.” I peered at his car in the driveway.

  • A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University
    Sordili: Nothingness on the Move Sordili 1 Nothingness on the Move: A Discussion of Goethe's Faust Part 1 Rafael Sordili, Concordia University (Editor's note: Rafael Sordili's paper was selected for publication in the 2013 Agora because it was one of the best three presented at the ACTC Student Conference at Shimer College in Chicago in March 2013.) In the world inhabited by Faust, movement is a metaphysical fact: it is an expression of divine will over creation. There are, however, negative consequences to an existence governed by motion. The most prevalent of them is a feeling of nothingness and nihilism. This essay will discuss the relations between movement and such feelings in Goethe's Faust.1 It is my thesis that the assertion of his will to life, the acceptance of his own limitations, and the creation of new personal values are the tools that will ultimately enable Faust to escape nihilism. Metaphysics of Motion Faust lives in a world in which motion is the main force behind existence. During the Prologue in Heaven, three archangels give speeches in praise of the Creator, emphasizing how the world is in a constant state of movement. Raphael states that the movement of the Sun is a form of worship: "The sun proclaims its old devotion / [. .] / and still completes in thunderous motion / the circuits of its destined years" (246-248). For Gabriel, the rotation of the earth brings movement to all the elements upon its surface: "High cliffs stand deep in ocean weather, / wide foaming waves flood out and in, / and cliffs and seas rush on together / caught in the globe's unceasing spin" (251-258).

Blume Professor of Education Graduate Program Coordinator for Curriculum and Instruction * Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Identity, self, or voice are not fixed once-and-for-all, not static achievements, but are always in play, in process of becoming, in being achieved, broken, slipping apart, and being reconstructed as several and multiple – sometimes coherent and sometimes in contradiction. Butler (2005) drawing from Foucault's techniques of the self and Levinas' encounter, argues that as we try to make ourselves intelligible or recognizable to one another, we come to interrogate our and another's norms and conduct, and cultivate responsibility for one another. In interrogating assumptions of belief and action and their disruptions of habitual thinking, Dewey (1922/1952) suggested that, to make decisions more conscious, we engage in "dramatic rehearsal," finding choices in imagining and finding alternatives.
