APT, similar to many other transit agencies today, is at a tipping point where either the system, faced with increasing costs and lack of sustained community support, will literally wither away, or, based on renewed interest and expanded vision, will grow to meet new demands and create new services. In the course of researching the Transit Development Plan, the consultant team met with a number of long-time residents of Augusta that remembered the days when bus service flourished with frequent service intervals to numerous portions of the community. Today, that service has been carefully reduced to address eras of constrained resources with former routes strategically decreased to serve the neediest riders for the most critical trip demands. As a result, the system has a number of “out of direction” and “one way loop” segments that contain circuitous routing that connects with public housing, schools and medical facilities, etc. This routing, coupled with increasing time between buses, is not surprisingly, only attracting the transit disadvantaged – defined as those with reduced incomes, youth, seniors and people with disabilities. Many riders spend hours each day, riding, transferring and waiting for APT service. At the same time, Augusta – Richmond County is expanding, with new housing opportunities and growth to the south, with a renewed focus towards reinvigoration of downtown as well as the potential for other types of economic growth.

  • Visualizing the Romance: Uses of Nathaniel Hawthorne's Narratives in Comics1
    Visualizing the Romance: Uses of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s Narratives in Comics1 Derek Parker Royal Classic works of American literature have been adapted to comics since the medium, especially as delivered in periodical form (i.e., the comic book), first gained a pop cultural foothold. One of the first texts adapted by Classic Comics, which would later become Classics Illustrated,2 was James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans, which appeared in issue #4, published in August 1942. This was immediately followed the next month by a rendering of Moby-Dick and then seven issues later by adaptations of two stories by Washington Irving, “Rip Van Winkle” and “The Headless Horseman.”3 As M. Thomas Inge points out, Edgar Allan Poe was one of the first, and most frequent, American authors to be translated into comics form (Incredible Mr. Poe 14), having his stories adapted not only in early issues of Classic Comics, but also in Yellow- jacket Comics (1944–1945) and Will Eisner’s The Spirit (1948).4 What is notable here is that almost all of the earliest adaptations of American literature sprang not only from antebellum texts, but from what we now consider classic examples of literary romance,5 those narrative spaces between the real and the fantastic where psychological states become the scaffolding of national and historical morality. It is only appropriate that comics, a hybrid medium where image and text often breed an ambiguous yet pliable synthesis, have become such a fertile means of retelling these early American romances. Given this predominance of early nineteenth-century writers adapted to the graphic narrative form, it is curious how one such author has been underrepresented within the medium, at least when compared to the treatment given to his contemporaries.

  • References to Clothing in Hawthorne's Ma.Jor Romances
    REFERENCES TO CLOTHING IN HAWTHORNE *S MAJOR ROMANCES APPROVED t Major Professor Minor Professor ?• S" Director o^ the Department of English j Dean of the Graduate School Brown, Evelynn Grayce, References to Clothing in Hawthorne's Ma.jor Romances. Master of Arts (English), December, 1970, 69 pp., bibliography. One very important as well as interesting aspect of Nathaniel Hawthorne's fictional technique is his recurrent and effective use of references to dress and accessories to reveal character, to develop theme, and to contribute to the structural unity of his works. Through a close study of Hawthorne's four major romances—The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables, The Blithedale Romance, and The Marble Faun-—this thesis singles out all significant refer- ences to apparel or accessories and evaluates the use he makes of them. Chapter II deals specifically with The Scarlet Letter, Chapter III with The House of the Seven Gables, and Chapter IV with both The Blithedale Romance and The Marble Faun. Each novel is treated on an individual basis and in chrono- logical order so that references to attire may be viewed not only as an aspect of a particular novel but also as an element of Hawthorne's entire mode of writing. Such a detailed sur- vey of the novels leads to four generalizations about Hawthorne's use of selected articles of clothing. First of all, Hawthorne uses accessories or items of apparel as symbols of isolation; Hester's scarlet letter, for example, represents her moral and physical isolation from the Puritan community. Second, Hawthorne uses articles of clothing as means of concealment, especially of disguising one's true nature; both Judge Pyncheon and Westervelt seek to hide their inner evil behind a front of handsome, fashionable attire.

Hepzibah Mary Lecturer, Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University, Raisan, Gujarat [email protected] The world progresses at an alarming rate hailing in many comforts and amenities that add to man’s bliss. Nevertheless it is not without its vice. To keep pace with the fast developments man is under duress to be creative, imaginative, illustrious and industrious which in due course of time take its toll on him. Ironically the facilities that are presumed to make his life easier have also contributed to his unease. The increase in societal demands and expectations prods man to push himself beyond his capabilities. With the rise in privileges he has sadly forgotten to be human. In search of name, fame and wealth he has become greedy, deceitful, hypocrite and lustful. Striving for betterment man has pathetically abandoned his legacy and heritage of goodness, values and principles. These complexities have made him forget what really is valuable, useful and needful.
