Kaminski Battaglia Abstract A Hermeneutic Historical Study of Kazimierz Dabrowski and his Theory of Positive Disintegration Marjorie M. Kaminski Battaglia The inquiry is a hermeneutic historical study of the historical factors in the life of Kazimierz Dabrowski which contributed to the shaping of his Theory of Positive Disintegration. Relatively little information has been written on the life and theory of Kazimierz Dabrowski. The researcher contends that knowledge of Dabrowski, the man, will aid in an understanding of his theory. The journey in which an individual “develops” to the level at which “the other” becomes a higher concern than the self, is the “stuff” of Kazimierz Dabrowski’s Theory of Positive Disintegration. It is a paradoxical theory of human development, based on the premise that “good can follow from bad.” Crisis and suffering act as the propellents into an internal as well as external battle with self and environment to move out of the “what is” and travel to the “what ought to be.” Illuminated within this study, is how the life of Dabrowski demonstrates this moral and psychic struggle.

Rewak, S.J. Professor of Philosophy, Santa Clara University 1. What do we mean when we talk about ‘ethics’? Ethics in the broadest sense refers to the concern that humans have always had for figuring out how best to live. The philosopher Socrates is quoted as saying in 399 B.C. that “the most important thing is not life, but the good life.”1 We would all like to avoid a bad life, one that is shameful and sad, fundamentally lacking in worthy achievements, unredeemed by love, kindness, beauty, friendship, courage, honor, joy, or grace. Yet what is the best way to obtain the opposite of this – a life that is not only acceptable, but even excellent and worthy of admiration? How do we identify a good life, one worth choosing from among all the different ways of living that lay open to us? This is the question that the study of ethics attempts to answer.

    GENERIC AFFINITIES, POSTHUMANISMS, SCIENCE-FICTIONAL IMAGININGS SPECULATIVE MATTER: GENERIC AFFINITIES, POSTHUMANISMS AND SCIENCE-FICTIONAL IMAGININGS By LAURA M. WIEBE, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Laura Wiebe, October 2012 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2012) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: Speculative Matter: Generic Affinities, Posthumanisms and Science-Fictional Imaginings AUTHOR: Laura Wiebe, B.A. (University of Waterloo), M.A. (Brock University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Anne Savage NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 277 ii ABSTRACT Amidst the technoscientific ubiquity of the contemporary West (or global North), science fiction has come to seem the most current of genres, the narrative form best equipped to comment on and work through the social, political and ethical quandaries of rapid technoscientific development and the ways in which this development challenges conventional understandings of human identity and rationality. By this framing, the continuing popularity of stories about paranormal phenomena and supernatural entities – on mainstream television, or in print genres such as urban fantasy and paranormal romance – may seem to be a regressive reaction against the authority of and experience of living in technoscientific modernity. Nevertheless, the boundaries of science fiction, as with any genre, are relational rather than fixed, and critical engagements with Western/Northern technoscientific knowledge and practice and modern human identity and being may be found not just in science fiction “proper,” or in the scholarly field of science and technology studies, but also in the related genres of fantasy and paranormal romance.

  • Saints, Seers, and Sorceresses: Femininity and the Spiritual Supernatural in Contemporary U.S
    Saints, Seers, and Sorceresses: Femininity and the Spiritual Supernatural in Contemporary U.S. Film and Television by Megan E. Biddinger A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Professor Susan J. Douglas, Chair Professor Gerald P. Scannell Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Megan E. Biddinger 2012 To My Family, With Love and Gratitude ii Acknowledgments Of all of the many things I have to be grateful for right now, the opportunity to take this space to thank the many, many people who have helped me through this process is at the top of the list. For years, I have kept a running list of people who have made me a better scholar and a better human being. At times when this process has been difficult, that list and the act of adding to it have served as powerful reminders of my good fortune. Looking at that list now I see an embarrassment of human riches. I am so grateful for the vast amounts and many kinds of support, encouragement, intellectual stimulation, camaraderie, and love I have received. I want to first thank my advisor and my committee without whom this project would have been impossible. First, I was incredibly fortunate to have Susan Douglas as an advisor and chair. She has been patient but persistent with me from the very beginning and my work is so much the better for learning from her. Her work inspired me to pursue my own investigations into gender, media, and culture and it has been an honor to be her student.
