Index ........ iii PART I. HISTORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL PREFACE. HERE are people in our time who treat the inquiries of the genealogist with indifference, and even with contempt. His researches seem to them a waste of time and energy. Interest in ancestors, love of family and kindred, those subtle questions of race, origin, even of life itself, which they involve, are quite beyond their com prehension. They live only in the present, care nothing for the past and little for the future; for " he who cares not whence he cometh, cares not whither he goeth." When such persons are approached with questions of ancestry, they retire to their stronghold of apathy; and the querist learns, without diffi culty, that whether their ancestors were vile or illustrious, virtuous or vicious, or whether, indeed, they ever had any, is to them a matter of supreme indifference.

Deposit Guide Contact: email Birkbeck, University of London Delirious USA: The Representation of Capital in the Fiction of Don DeLillo Thomas William Lynn Travers Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 1 Declaration I, Thomas William Lynn Travers, declare that this thesis is my own work. Where I have drawn upon the work of other researchers, this has been fully acknowledged. 2 Abstract In this thesis I offer a new reading of Don DeLillo’s fiction through an engagement with contemporary Marxist literary theory and political economy. Beginning in the 1960s, the thesis traces the launch, expansion, and shattering of DeLillo’s narrative apparatus as it recomposes itself across the genres of the short story, the conspiratorial thriller, the historical novel, and the novel of time. Developing on theories of the novel as a capitalist epic, the thesis takes the insistent appearance of surplus populations in DeLillo’s work as an opportunity to reflect on, but also to revise and reconceptualise, Marxist accounts of the novel and its philosophy of history.

  • 1 Rolling Into Host: a Cross-County Cycling Trip
    Rolling into Host: A cross-county cycling trip raising awareness of America’s affordable housing crisis University of Wyoming Honors Program International Studies & English Courtney Kudera Advisor: Diane Panozzo 1 Rolling into Host: A cross-county cycling trip raising awareness of America’s affordable housing crisis Courtney Kudera, Dr. Diane Panozzo Honors Program University of Wyoming Oral Presentation University of Wyoming Honors College Baggs, Wyoming Bicycling over four thousand miles promoting affordable housing, I witnessed the repercussions and efforts made concerning one of America’s most concerning social and economic issues, affordable housing. As a Bike & Build participant, my team and I experienced and were able to directly discuss the issue as we crossed the southern United States. This creative project presents a portion of America’s affordable housing struggles through a creative non- fiction narrative. While affordable housing is the focus, topics including cycling and communal living will also be addressed. Primarily, this creative non-fiction encourages discussion regarding affordable housing through an entertaining lens. Issues such as disaster relief, sustainability, temporary housing, as well as zero-waste construction will be discussed in their respective regions and states. First-hand experiences will be the primary focus; however, additional research-based information is also included regarding specific locations’ affordable housing struggles. Characters will represent my teammates and our experiences as we crossed the country. This will include discussing interpersonal interactions with hosts, affordable housing affiliates, as well as other individuals met along the way. Each interaction and mention will highlight either communal living, cycling, or affordable housing. Stylistically inspired by Born to Run, the goal regarding this creative non-fiction is to be informative about an important issue while remaining entertaining.
