By Susan Welsh Edith Grossman’s Why Translation Matters is a thoughtful and hard-hitting argument that literary translation is something a civilized society simply cannot do without. So why do most large English-language publishers—unlike 15 their counterparts in continental Europe—refuse to issue more than one or two such translations per year?

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS and POLYPHONY
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS AND POLYPHONY: THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF HIGH SCHOOL BAND STUDENTS AND THEIR DIRECTOR AS THEY PREPARE FOR AN ADJUDICATED PERFORMANCE Stephen W. Miles Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Francine Hultgren Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership College of Education University of Maryland This hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry is called by the question: What are the lived experiences of high school band students and their director as they prepare for an adjudicated performance? While there are many lenses through which the phenomenon of music preparation and music making has been explored, a relatively untapped aspect of this phenomenon is the experience as lived by the students themselves. The experiences and behaviors of the band director are so inexorably intertwined with the student experience that this essential contextual element is also explored as a means to understand the phenomenon more fully. Two metaphorical constructs – one visual, one musical – provide a framework upon which this exploration is built. As a prism refracts a single color of light into a wide spectrum of hues, views from within illumine a variety of unique perspectives and uncover both divergent and convergent aspects of this experience. Polyphony (multiple contrasting voices working independently, yet harmoniously, toward a unified musical product) enables understandings of the multiplicity of experiences inherent in ensemble performance. Conversations with student participants and their director, notes from my observations, and journal offerings provide the text for phenomenological reflection and interpretation. The methodology underpinning this human science inquiry is identified by Max van Manen (2003) as one that “involves description, interpretation, and self-reflective or critical analysis” (p.

  • About the Wisconsin Policy Forum
    About the Wisconsin Policy Forum The Wisconsin Policy Forum was created on January 1, 2018, by the merger of the Milwaukee-based Public Policy Forum and the Madison-based Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance. Throughout their lengthy histories, both organizations engaged in nonpartisan, independent research and civic education on fiscal and policy issues affecting state and local governments and school districts in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Policy Forum is committed to those same activities and to that spirit of nonpartisanship. Preface and Acknowledgments This report was undertaken to paint a clearer picture of the youth sports landscape in the city of Milwaukee: what options are available to kids and their families, what are the characteristics of these programs and how are they supported financially, and what are some of the primary challenges facing the city’s youth sports organizations. We hope that this research will help guide youth sports leaders, funders, and policymakers. Report authors would like to thank the representatives of youth sports organizations who shared information by responding to our survey, as well as key informants who provided additional insight. In addition, we are grateful to members of the advisory committee convened to guide this report for generously providing their time and expertise; and to representatives from Milwaukee Recreation for taking the time to provide us with important information about the unique role they play in Milwaukee’s youth sports landscape. Finally, we wish to thank the Milwaukee Youth Sports Alliance for spearheading this initiative, and the Milwaukee Bucks and Bader Philanthropies for their contributions that helped make this research possible.

  • Editorial and Design Principles in Precursors Of
    PRECURSORS TO THE RISE OF ENGLISH WORLD ATLASES; Theatres, Atlases, Cosmographies, Geographies, and Sets of Maps Dalia Varanka, Research Geographer U.S. Geological Survey 1400 Independence Road Rolla, Mo 65401 Tel. 573.308.3897 Email [email protected] Acnowledgement: This paper is based on doctoral dissertation research formulated under the supervision of J.B. Harley. The dissertation work was supported in part by a grant from the National Science Foundation and with fellowships from the John Carter Brown Library, Brown University; the Hermon Dunlap Smith Center for the History of Cartography, The Newberry Library; and the Graduate College of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. The context of the rise of world atlases in England suggests that they were tied to wider scholarly and social issues covering the period of roughly 1630 through 1730. This short history discusses the cosmographical background and Continental foundations of the rise of world atlases in England, and a survey of relevant English precursors to those atlases. A risk exists of rooting definitions of atlases firmly in cartography, subsuming other defining concepts, such as scientific philosophy and social values. An alternative way to look at atlases is that they are part of the larger corpus of their other contemporary works. The word ‘atlas’ was applied to only a part of our extant corpus of bound or unbound collections of maps of the world made in late seventeenth- century England. A more frequent term is "set of maps," (or Tabularum Geographicarum). ‘Geography’ is also used. Bound sets of maps, which are called Atlas Factice, are almost never called atlases by their makers or producers.
