Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 GLASGOW UNIVERSITY LIBRARY THESIS ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the literary representations of working women by the following French women writers: Simone de Beauvoir, Simone Weil, Christiane Rochefort, Gisele Halimi, Marie Cardinal, Janine Bregeon, Claire Etcherelli, Annie Ernaux, Annie Leclerc, Dorothee Letessier, Michele Fitoussi and Emmanuele Bernheim. A twenty-two page introduction starts from the premise that ‘le travail n’est pas une panacee’. The writings are contextualised in relationship to the social, political and economic developments during the postwar period. In chapter one, ‘Politics, Language and Social Realism’ there follows an analysis of the importance of the events May 1968 and an examination of the problematic politics of French feminist language. However, the main focus of the chapter is on the social realism of women’s lived experience. In chapter two, ‘L’Ecole des femmes’, a critical investigation of the female curriculum and career prospects is carried out, while particular attention is paid to Beauvoir’s critique of the education of girls during the period. Moreover, the inconsistencies between Beauvoir’s memoirs and her fictions are highlighted. Further sections describe the education of French girls in the 1950s at the hands of Catholic teachers who instruct them that ‘Maman c’est le plus beau metier’. Gender stereotyping at home and school is examined at length. The upbringing and socialisation of female children is. then discussed under the headings ‘Parental influence’, ‘Sex education and taboos’ and ‘Peer and social pressures’. Chapter three, ‘Housework: the Death of Romance’, focuses on the domestic labour debate and propounds the thesis that social class and sexual stratification constitute a double oppression for the ‘second sex’. Indeed it is even suggested that housework turns women’s cherished interiors, on which they lavish so much misplaced love and attention, into workhouses. The psychological effects of this are shown to be disastrous. Chapter four, ‘O. S. toute sa vie, c’est pas une vie’ proceeds from Weil’s courageous social experiment, ‘Journal d’usine’, to the worm’s eye view of the factory floor as perceived by the protagonists of Letessier and Etcherelli. The workers’ oppression is exacerbated by the sexual harassment to which they are routinely subjected and the deleterious effects of the assembly line on their health . Two final sections on ‘Women and trade unions’ and ‘Shop and office work’ complete a pessimistic scenario which shows that the contribution made by female employees is seldom recognised at its true value. In chapter five, ‘Professional women and maternal guilt’, two major texts by Marie Cardinal, Le Passe empiete and Les Grands Desordres are selected in order to foreground the perennial difficulties women face in reconciling work and family. The conclusion however suggests that some of the most recent sociological and fictional texts mark a definitive progression in women’s sexual and professional emancipation. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am very grateful to my supervisors, Christine Jimack and Elizabeth Moles, for all their help and support in writing up this thesis. I should also like to record my gratitude to Glasgow’s French Department for encouraging me throughout the protracted process.

In this study I shall be examining the developing discourses and representations of working women in postwar French women’s writing, and situating the novels in the context of the relevant social, political and economic developments in France since 1945. I have opted for texts that depict as diverse a range of working women as possible: from working-class housewives to middle-class homemakers; from factory and office

  • Martian Crater Morphology
    ANALYSIS OF THE DEPTH-DIAMETER RELATIONSHIP OF MARTIAN CRATERS A Capstone Experience Thesis Presented by Jared Howenstine Completion Date: May 2006 Approved By: Professor M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Professor Christopher Condit, Geology Professor Judith Young, Astronomy Abstract Title: Analysis of the Depth-Diameter Relationship of Martian Craters Author: Jared Howenstine, Astronomy Approved By: Judith Young, Astronomy Approved By: M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Approved By: Christopher Condit, Geology CE Type: Departmental Honors Project Using a gridded version of maritan topography with the computer program Gridview, this project studied the depth-diameter relationship of martian impact craters. The work encompasses 361 profiles of impacts with diameters larger than 15 kilometers and is a continuation of work that was started at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas under the guidance of Dr. Walter S. Keifer. Using the most ‘pristine,’ or deepest craters in the data a depth-diameter relationship was determined: d = 0.610D 0.327 , where d is the depth of the crater and D is the diameter of the crater, both in kilometers. This relationship can then be used to estimate the theoretical depth of any impact radius, and therefore can be used to estimate the pristine shape of the crater. With a depth-diameter ratio for a particular crater, the measured depth can then be compared to this theoretical value and an estimate of the amount of material within the crater, or fill, can then be calculated. The data includes 140 named impact craters, 3 basins, and 218 other impacts. The named data encompasses all named impact structures of greater than 100 kilometers in diameter.

Lett., 42, doi:10.1002/2015GL064844. Key points: • Terraced craters: abundant in Arcadia Planitia, indicate subsurface layering • A widespread subsurface interface is also detected by SHARAD • Combining data sets yields dielectric constants consistent with decameters of excess water ice Abstract: The distribution of subsurface water ice on Mars is a key constraint on past climate, while the volumetric concentration of buried ice (pore-filling versus excess) provides information about the process that led to its deposition. We investigate the subsurface of Arcadia Planitia by measuring the depth of terraces in simple impact craters and mapping a widespread subsurface reflection in radar sounding data. Assuming that the contrast in material strengths responsible for the terracing is the same dielectric interface that causes the radar reflection, we can combine these data to estimate the dielectric constant of the overlying material.

  • CTSA Proceedings 66 / 2011
    110 CTSA Proceedings 66 / 2011 TOWARDS AN EPISTEMOLOGY OF SANCTITY Convener: Jessica M. Murdoch, Villanova University Moderator: Anna Moreland, Villanova University Presenters: Jessica M. Murdoch, Villanova University Peter J. Casarella, DePaul University Maria Clara Lucchetti Bingemer, Pontifi cal Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro Three papers were presented considering the relationship between holiness and human knowledge. Dr. Murdoch read a paper entitled: “On the Relationship Between Sanctity and Knowledge: Holiness as an Epistemological Criterion.” In it she argued, following the thought of St. Thomas, that holiness is necessary for both natural and supernatural knowledge. Epistemologically, Thomas’ thought is typically understood as an alternative to Augustinian illuminationism. On this view, Thomas replaces the divine illumination that functions prominently as an epistemological ground in Augustine’s thought with the agent intellect, a sort of natural illumination. A systematic reading of the pertinent Thomistic texts raises several questions: In what way is God the cause of human knowledge? What ulti- mately distinguishes natural from supernatural knowledge? And what, ultimately, is the role of sanctity in human knowing? Dr. Murdoch noted that though it is widely accepted that the connaturality between God and the graced soul grounds supernatural knowledge, she would contend that Thomas also points towards a divine ground of natural knowl- edge. Holiness, defined as conformity of the soul to God, “increases being” and therefore, following the Thomistic convertibility of being and knowing, increases the capacity for knowledge, both natural and supernatural. Following this, Dr. Murdoch argued that sanctity produces an ontological change in the saint that results in a greater “degree of being” that corresponds to greater knowledge.

Political Theory and Christian Vision. Essays in Memory of Bernard Zylstra. Maryland: University Press of American. Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group. 1994 “Is This Not The Kind of Fasting I Have Chosen?”1 Simone Weil's Life and Labor Johanna Selles-Roney In a photograph taken of her class at the Lycee Henri IV in 1926,2 Simone Weil is distinguished from her male classmates by an intensity of gaze and an air of somewhat amused detachment. Weil, who graduated from the prestigious “Ecole Normale” in 1931, spent her brief thirty-four years engaged in a passionate search for truth. In many ways, she began this quest from a privileged position-the comfort of a middle-class home, parents who placed a high value on superior education, and the advantage of the best schools and teachers. She struggled with limited success to free herself from these advantages and place herself in a position to understand life from the point of view of the humblest laborer. Weil's fascination with labor3 was a consistent theme in her life and consequently offers a key to understanding her thought.4 Her reflections on the subject are marked by the application of a philosophical method which was rooted in the nineteenth-century voluntarist, spiritueliste line of French philosophy.5 Labor was more 268 Johanna Selles-Roney than a central theoretical concern; her life demonstrated a practical fascination with the existence of an ordinary laborer, whether in industry, agriculture, or other work.

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971.
