Battle and Self-Sacrifice in a Bengali Warrior’s Epic: Lausen’s Quest to be a Raja in Dharma Ma2gal* INTRODUCTION Plots and Themes harma Ma2gal are long, narrative Bengali poems that explain and justify the worship of Lord Dharma as the D eternal, formless, and supreme god. Surviving texts were written between the mid-seventeenth and the mid-eighteenth centuries. By examining the plots of Dharma Ma2gal, I hope to describe features of a precolonial Bengali warriors” culture. I argue that Dharma Ma2gal texts describe the career of a hero and raja, and that their narratives seem to be designed both to inculcate a version of warrior culture in Bengal, and to contain it by requiring self-sacrifice in both battle and “truth ordeals.” Dharma Ma2gal *I thank Ralph W.

Honey, Master of Science Utah State University, 2020 Major Professor: Dr. Eric César Morales Program: American Studies This paper examines the shifting portrayals of Pacific Islanders in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) across three generations. As both a popular and historically racially problematic venue, WWE’s politically incorrect programming has played an underappreciated and under examined role in representing the USA. Although 4 many different groups have been portrayed by gross stereotypes in WWE, this paper uses the family of Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson—the Samoan Dynasty—as a case study. The WWE originally presented Pacific Islanders using the most offensive stereotypes, and the first two generations of the Samoan Dynasty had to “play Indian” or cosign onto gross representations of their people to be recognized by American audiences unfamiliar with representations of Pacific Islanders.

  • Tartan Wrestling Philosophy
    Tartan Wrestling Philosophy Mission Statement: The Tartan Wrestling Program believes there is more to life than athletics. It is our desire to develop not only great wrestlers, but great students and kids who demonstrate outstanding character. This program will measure its success not only in wins and losses, but also in our wrestlers’ abilities to have productive and successful lives. Wrestling Philosophy: Wrestling is a sport that requires more than talent. It takes physical and mental discipline as well as sound fundamentals. A Tartan wrestler should work relentlessly to maximize his potential in all of these areas. Although this staff teaches specific technical components of this sport, it is our belief that there is more than one way to wrestle. We work tirelessly to bring in an array of technique, giving each individual the best chance at personal success. There is however on area of wrestling that we believe is absolute. A Tartan wrestler must be a hard worker who strives to be in the best physical shape possible. We believe in the adage, “hard work beats talents, when talent doesn’t work hard.” Our expectations of our wrestlers are that they will out work their opponent each and every day. Our objective is to wear our opponent down so that we can physically break them. The third period should be our best, as our opponent fatigues and we are able to remain fundamentally sound due to superior conditioning. It is no accident when a Tartan wrestler wins a close match or a match in which they trailed. NEEDS AND VALUES OF WRESTLING The wrestling mat provides a constructive outlet for energies that are symptomatic of restless and uncertain teenagers.
