    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph arid reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". if it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Stephen Pepper's World Hypotheses: Season 1, Episode 1 Welcome To
    Stephen Pepper’s World Hypotheses: Season 1, Episode 1 Welcome to the first episode of the Stephen Pepper thread. The focus of this post is World Hypotheses, Chapters 1-4. My reflections today are largely confined to definitional matters, but I also hope to set the stage for an examination (in my next post) of Pepper’s “root metaphor” theory. Perhaps the clearest path into Pepper’s thought is to consider the place where most of us began our intellectual journey: common sense. For Pepper, common sense includes “the sorts of things we think of when we ordinarily read the papers…or the sort of things we see and hear and smell and feel as we walK along the street or in the country…” (p. 39). Pepper considers common sense as a loose synonym for Plato’s notion of “opinion” (p. 39). I’m also reminded of the “natural attitude” described by phenomenologists. For Pepper, the world of common sense can be characterized as “secure” in the sense that it is “never lacking” – i.e., we can always fall back on it: • “No cognition can sink lower than common sense, for when we completely give up trying to Know anything, then is precisely when we Know things in the common-sense way. In that lies the security of common sense” (p. 43). But, in spite of its security, common sense is also “cognitively irritable”: • “The materials of common sense are changing, unchanging, contradictory, vague, rigid, muddled, melodramatically clear, unorganized, rationalized, dogmatic, shrewdly dubious, recKlessly dubious, piously felt, playfully enjoyed, and so forth.

  • Under the Direction of DONNA E. ALVERMANN)
    THE SOCIONATURALIST NARRATIVE: AN APPROACH TO THE BIO-ECOLOGICAL DYNAMICS OF READING AND LITERACY DEVELOPMENT by GEORGE G. HRUBY (Under the direction of DONNA E. ALVERMANN) ABSTRACT In this conceptual-manuscript hybrid dissertation, the author argues for a theoretical framework for reading and literacy education research informed by neo- naturalist trends in the social sciences, with an emphasis on current motifs in developmental psychology. Specifically, the author demonstrates that a framework intentionally located within a contextual organicist world hypothesis can complement currently competing paradigms in the reading and literacy education community by making sense of cognitive, linguistic, and sociocultural phenomena in terms of the self- organizing dynamics of living systems. This narrative avoids the reductive and deterministic accounts of sociobiology as well as the dualism and essentialism inherent in mechanistic organicist and mechanistic contextualist world hypotheses entertained by cognitive and sociocultural researchers respectively. As a narrative, it links naturalistic discourses with themes in anglophone poststructuralist epistemology. It thereby provides a means of incorporating new insights from the neurosciences, philosophy of mind, artificial intelligence, cognitive ethology, sociolinguistics, cultural and biological anthropology, dynamical systems theory, and evolutionary, ecological, and developmental psychology into theory and research in reading and literacy education. It is suggested that such a narrative can

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Howard Schachman, dated April 26, 2007.

PEPPER* ABSTRACT Three foundational conceptual dichotomies underlie questions of lawyers’ professional ethics. Commonly unnoticed and unarticulated, they affect our perception and resolution of questions at all levels: from large scale theory and policy, through the framing of particular rules or principles, and down to consideration of specific situations and conduct. In this article Professor Pepper identifies and explores each of these three in turn. In addition the article specifically considers how each dichotomy might affect our understanding and possible resolution of fundamental questions in the ethics of representing corporations.

  • Doing Ordinary Language Criticism
    STJHUMRev Vol. 4-2 1 Doing Ordinary Language Criticism Walter Jost Walter Jost is professor of English at the University of Virginia. He has written two books on criticism and rhetorical studies, most recently Rhetorical Investigations. He has edited or co-edited seven other books, anthologies and readers on the subject of language and rhetoric. The Ordinary I n starting out, I should note that the “ordinary language” in my title is not being opposed to the jargon of the specialist. I’m sure that all of us here are too experienced not to know how useful critical jargon often is, and how treacherous so-called “everyday” or “ordinary language” can be. Nor is the term “ordinary” meant to be contrasted to so-called “literary” language. As J. L. Austin and Mary Louise Pratt and many others have shown over the years, these two concepts, “ordinary” and “literary” language, exist on a continuum of language uses, with nothing objectively inherent in them to clearly divide one from the other. Finally, I should preface my remarks my saying that they are all made within what the philosopher Stephen Pepper, in his book World Hypotheses, calls a “contextualist” philosophy, a philosophy which is but one of several different ways of making sense of the world. Among contemporary philosophies, American pragmatism might be the most familiar variant of contextualism, although some versions of analytic and continental philosophy, like Wittgenstein’s and much of Gadamer’s, are also contextualist. If we need a contrast to ordinary language, then, and we do, I take ordinary language to be understood in contrast to language that is, as Wittgenstein says, “idling,” language more or less theoretically spinning its wheels outside any actual language games that people engage in with each other, in actual things they do in the world.

  • Elizabeth Bishop's Grammar School for the Aspect-Blind and A-Rhetorical
    religions Article Elizabeth Bishop’s Grammar School for the Aspect-Blind and A-rhetorical Walter Jost Department of English, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22903, USA; [email protected] Received: 29 May 2017; Accepted: 28 June 2017; Published: 11 July 2017 Abstract: This paper uses Elizabeth Bishop’s poem, “Over 2000 Illustrations and a Complete Concordance” as an exemplar that displays the centrality of aspect perception in her work. Keywords: grammar; rhetoric; Wittgenstein; aspect perception; seeing-as; poetry; religion; Elizabeth Bishop “I am not a religious man, but I cannot help seeing every problem from a religious point of view.” —Ludwig Wittgenstein (Rhees 1984, p. 94). “It was a typical day at the shrine around what many believe is the tomb of Jesus in Jerusalem’s Old City. A Greek Orthodox choir sang inside a room facing the baroque structure. But the voices were drowned out when chanting Armenian priests and monks circling the shrine raised theirs. ‘Sometimes they punch each other,’ Farah Atallah, a church guard wearing a fez, observed with a shrug.” —“The New York Times,” 7 April, 2016 1. Introduction The present essay is wrested from a larger inquiry of mine concerning what a mode of grammatical and rhetorical criticism of literary works, one chiefly motivated “after Cavell after Wittgenstein,” might look like and do.1 The larger account proceeds on the understanding that those two predicates in the first place—“rhetorical,” and the “grammatical” (conceptual, logical, philosophical) investigations of Ludwig Wittgenstein and others—can be seen as mutually constitutive, that is, more or less discriminated from or assimilated to each other according to the circumstances in which they are used.

More generally, anamorphosis covers conditions of form-within-form, concealed form, and disjunctive form, even when the form is non-visual. Enlightenment The post-Renaissance period of consolidation of rational philosophy and its application; secularization, and emphasis on transparent methods of inquiry. Ideal eternal history Vico’s three-part schema of human development, realized in historical, psychological, and epistemological forms. The age of gods is dominated by the subject’s unwitting metaphorical projection of human nature onto the external environment; the heroic age secularizes the severe religion of the mythic age, paving the way for representative government in the age of men, dominated by conceptualism and technology. The barbarism of the final age leads to a possible ricorso, or new cycle. Positivism The general philosophical movement begun in the Nineteenth Century, an outgrowth of Enlightenment rationality and a precursor of modern scientific method.
