What is powerful about this poetic device? How does the persona poem involve the reader and interrogate our notions of self? We’ll explore the connections and differences between these poets and their first books. 9:40 Karen Rile: “The Bad Writing Competition: Introducing Narrative Distance to Undergraduates.” A technique-centered workshop that offers coordinated readings and prompts can help beginning writers focus on discrete, achievable goals.

Antonovich A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Alexandra Minna Stern, Co-chair Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez, Co-chair Professor Anna Kirkland Professor Matthew D. Lassiter Professor Martin Pernick Jacqueline D. Antonovich [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-6295-7735 © Jacqueline D. Antonovich 2018 For my younger self. A single mother, working as a waitress, with only an associate degree in hand. You are my inspiration every day. ii Acknowledgements Years ago, when I decided to return to school to finish my bachelor’s degree, I never imagined that the journey would end with a Ph.D. I want to thank the History Department at the University of Michigan for taking a chance on me, and I also want to encourage them to keep taking chances on students like me – first-generation, non-traditional students bring a valuable and much-needed perspective to the academy. Alexandra Minna Stern is a phenomenal advisor. Her scholarly insight and professional mentorship has made this dissertation a stronger project, and I am a better historian because of her. My dissertation co-chair, Regina Morantz Sanchez, provided unwavering support over the past seven years. She has always taken my claims about the importance of medical women’s politics seriously, and graciously opened up both her home and her archives to me. Martin Pernick taught me not only how to be a pretty good medical historian, but also how to be an excellent teacher.

  • Isabella Bird: an Argument for Mobility and a Changed Definition of New Womanhood
    Isabella Bird: An Argument for Mobility and a Changed Definition of New Womanhood by Natalie Sujae McCloskey, B.A. Honours, History A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Carleton University Ottawa, Canada © 2017, Natalie Sujae McCloskey ii Abstract I argue that mobility and ideas of New Womanhood were mutually constitutive by the late nineteenth century onwards. Through Isabella Bird’s writing and biographies, I find that she, and by extension others of the fin-de-siècle, connected mobility with Christianity and modernity in a Western imperialist context. Her biographers are discussed as representatives of each generation’s feminist view of New Women. I focus on Bird’s writing about Korea, where she advocated missionaries and views on race and Orientalism in ways that were not simply echoes of contemporary British jingoist ideas. For example, she concluded that Russia should take over Korea after the First Sino-Japanese War. Studying Bird reevaluates and historicizes the definition of New Womanhood by emphasizing how privileges of mobility and Christian missionizing were assumptions built into fin-de-siècle writing by “New Women,” despite how late thinkers characterized them as secular progressives, like the feminist movement. iii Acknowledgements I owe an enormous debt to Dr. Danielle Kinsey for her expertise, patience, and friendship. Without her guidance, I would still be writing about the Great White Mother and missing everything that makes this thesis worthwhile. I certainly did not make it easy for her. I must also thank Dr.
