To my committee members Yvette Lapayese and Lori Pawinski, the lessons that you taught me as my professors and through the dissertation process have been invaluable.

Kenney, Jr.: The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn of the The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn ofthe Century Consciousness by EDWIN J. KENNEY, JR. N THE YEARS 1923-24 Virginia Woolf was embroiled in an argument I with Arnold Bennett about the responsibility of the novelist and the future ofthe novel. In her famous essay "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown," she observed that "on or about December, 1910, human character changed";1 and she proceeded to argue, without specifying the causes or nature of that change, that because human character had changed the novel must change if it were to be a true representation of human life. Since that time the at once assertive and vague remark about 1910, isolated, has served as a convenient point of departure for historians now writing about the social and cultural changes occurring during the Edwardian period.2 Literary critics have taken the ideas about fiction from "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown" and Woolfs other much-antholo­ gized essay "Modern Fiction" as a free-standing "aesthetic manifesto" of the new novel of sensibility;3 and those who have recorded and discussed the "whole contention" between Virginia Woolf and Arnold Bennett have regarded the relation between Woolfs historical observation and her ideas about the novel either as just a rhetorical strategy or a generational disguise for the expression of class bias against Bennett.4 Yet few readers have asked what Virginia Woolf might have nleant by her remark about 1910 and the novel, or what it might have meant to her.

The purpose of the guide is to give students a chance to explore various business and office occupations while gaining insight into how and why a knowledge of English is important in everyday work life. The units may be adapted to fit special objectives. The first 12 units deal with grammar and the _mechanics of writing, letter writing, the preparing outgoing mail; in all but one, the major activity is a job simulation requiring students to apply their knowledge of the English topic with which the unit deals. Four oral language units each contain two major activities and, as in the first 12, each unit contains a teacher's key, a background information sheet on the occupation, optional activities suggestions, and student worksheets.

  • THEORIZING BROWN IDENTITY by Danielle Sandhu a Thesis
    THEORIZING BROWN IDENTITY by Danielle Sandhu A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education University of Toronto © Danielle Sandhu 2014 THEORIZING BROWN IDENTITY Master of Arts 2014 Danielle Sandhu Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract This thesis examines the possibilities and limitations of theorizing Brown identity as an anti-racist and anti-colonial framework. By examining discursive representations of Brownness and Brown Identity in the Brown Canada Project, a community-led project of the Council of Agencies Serving South Asians, it introduces a new framework for conceptualizing the racialization, identity, and resistance of South Asians in the Greater Toronto Area. The thesis reveals three key themes: the salience of Brown identity in terms of a spirit injury that results from migration, assertion of pride in resistance, and how shared values and experiences of racism form pedagogies for education and community-building. These themes inform a theory of Brown identity and Brownness for anti-racist and anti-colonial resistance. This thesis aims to inform anti-racist and anti-colonial educational practices, political activism, and social movements. It serves as a point of generation for new lines of inquiry into Brown epistemologies, experiences, and relationships. ii Acknowledgements This thesis is dedicated to my parents, Paramjit Singh Sandhu and Swarn Lata Chopra Sandhu. Thank you for your sacrifices, your neverending support and encouragement, and love. You taught me about justice, struggle, and resistance from an early age. You are my pillars; my gurus on earth.
