UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Aspect UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Aspect and evidentiality A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics by Margit Lia Bowler 2018 c Copyright by Margit Lia Bowler 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Aspect and evidentiality by Margit Lia Bowler Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Yael Sharvit, Chair A number of unrelated languages have portmanteau morphemes with both temporal and evidential meanings (e.g. Cherokee (Pulte 1985), Kalaallisut (Fortescue 2003), Tariana (Aikhenvald 2004), and Turkish (Slobin and Aksu 1982), among many others). These temporal and evidential meanings are strikingly consistent, cross-linguistically. Evidential- ity frequently co-occurs as part of other grammatical categories (Aikhenvald 2018, 2004); however, most theories of evidentiality do not discuss its connection with other kinds of meaning. In this dissertation, I provide a formal account of the connection between tempo- ral and evidential meanings through a case study of a set of portmanteau tense/aspect and evidential (TAE) morphemes in Tatar (Turkic). Part 1 of the dissertation provides in-depth description of the evidential and temporal interpretation of the Tatar TAE morphemes. This Tatar data was collected through original fieldwork on the language. Part 2 analyzes the Tatar TAE morphemes as having underlyingly temporal semantics. I propose that the Tatar TAE morphemes assert temporal meaning, and pragmatically implicate evidential meaning. I accomplish this by positing a tripartite event ontology (following Moens and Steedman 1988) in which events are preceded by contingently related pre-states and are followed by contingently related event post-states. I propose that the evidential meanings of the Tatar TAE morphemes arise as a “byproduct” of their ability to view events from within the runtimes of their pre- and post-states. I show that the evidential readings as- sociated with the Tatar TAE morphemes are cancellable in some discourse contexts, and ii completely absent in others. This suggests that a pragmatic mechanism is needed to ac- count for their use. This dissertation joins and formalizes intuitions about event pre- and post-states, causality, and evidentiality that have been previously described in both the temporal and evidential literatures (e.g. Comrie 1976, Nikolaeva 1999, and Bashir 2006, among others). In doing so, I account for both the temporal and evidential contributions of the Tatar TAE morphemes. iii The dissertation of Margit Lia Bowler is approved.

  • The Ben Gray Lumpkin Collection of Colorado Folklore
    Gene A. Culwell The Ben Gray Lumpkin Collection of Colorado Folklore Professor Ben Gray Lumpkin, who retired from the University of Colorado in June of 1969, spent more than twenty years of his academic career amassing a large collection of folksongs in the state of Colorado. At my request, Profes- sor Lumpkin provided the following information concerning his life and career: Son of John Moorman and Harriet Gray Lumpkin, I was born De- cember 25, 1901, in Marshall County, Mississippi, on a farm about seven miles north of Holly Springs. Grandpa was a Methodist cir- cuit rider, but had to farm to eke out a living because his hill-coun- try churches were too poor to support his family. Because we lived too far from the Hudsonville school for me to walk, I began schooling under my mother until I was old enough to ride a gentle mare and take care of her at school—at the age of 8. When my father bought a farm in Lowndes County, Mississippi, my brother Joe and sister Martha and I went to Penn Station and Crawford elementary schools. Having finished what was called the ninth grade, I went to live with my Aunt Olena Ford, and fin- ished Tupelo High School in 1921, then BA, University of Missis- sippi, 1925. I worked as the secretary and clerk in the Mississippi State Department of Archives and History (September 1925 to March 1929) and in the Mississippi Division office of Southern Bell Telephone Company (March 1929 to August 1930). I taught English and other subjects in Vina, Alabama, High School (August 1930 through January 1932).

  • Billy Joel's Turn and Return to Classical Music Jie Fang Goh, MM
    ABSTRACT Fantasies and Delusions: Billy Joel’s Turn and Return to Classical Music Jie Fang Goh, M.M. Mentor: Jean A. Boyd, Ph.D. In 2001, the release of Fantasies and Delusions officially announced Billy Joel’s remarkable career transition from popular songwriting to classical instrumental music composition. Representing Joel’s eclectic aesthetic that transcends genre, this album features a series of ten solo piano pieces that evoke a variety of musical styles, especially those coming from the Romantic tradition. A collaborative effort with classical pianist Hyung-ki Joo, Joel has mentioned that Fantasies and Delusions is the album closest to his heart and spirit. However, compared to Joel’s popular works, it has barely received any scholarly attention. Given this gap in musicological work on the album, this thesis focuses on the album’s content, creative process, and connection with Billy Joel’s life, career, and artistic identity. Through this thesis, I argue that Fantasies and Delusions is reflective of Joel’s artistic identity as an eclectic composer, a melodist, a Romantic, and a Piano Man.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Bret Charles Werb 2014 Copyright © Bret Charles Werb 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski by Bret Charles Werb Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Timothy Rice, Chair This study examines the repertoire of Yiddish-language Shoah (or Holocaust) songs prepared for publication between the years 1945 and 1949, focusing its attention on the work of the most influential individual song collector, Shmerke Kaczerginski (1908-1954). Although a number of initiatives to preserve the “sung folklore” of the Nazi ghettos and camps were undertaken soon after the end of the Second World War, Kaczerginski’s magnum opus, the anthology Lider fun di getos un lagern (Songs of the Ghettos and Camps), published in New York in 1948, remains unsurpassed to this day as a resource for research in the field of Jewish folk and popular music of the Holocaust period. ii Chapter one of the dissertation recounts Kaczerginski’s life story, from his underprivileged childhood in Vilna, Imperial Russia (present-day Vilnius, Lithuania), to his tragic early death in Argentina. It details his political, social and literary development, his wartime involvement in ghetto cultural affairs and the underground resistance, and postwar sojourn from the Soviet sphere to the West. Kaczerginski’s formative years as a politically engaged poet and songwriter are shown to have underpinned his conviction that the repertoire of salvaged Shoah songs provided unique and authentic testimony to the Jewish experience of the war.

In an unusual collaborative effort, researchers worked with former gang members to make contact with and interview members of various "cliques" (cohorts) of the White Fence and El Hoyo Maravilla gangs (male gangs), as well as female gangs in the same neighborhoods. Interviews were conducted with 156 adult men and women; about 40 percent had joined the gangs in the 1940s and early 1950s, while the rest had been'active in recent years. Data are set in the context of economic and social chaages in the barrios between the 1950s and the 1970s-80s. Data reveal that in the later era, gangs had become more institutionalized, were more influential in members' lives, and had become more deviant.

  • 1 I. 1) Tématem Této Práce Je Analýza Materiálu Z Oblasti Nonartificiální
    I. 1) Tématem této práce je analýza materiálu z oblasti nonartificiální hudby, na pomezí popu a rocku a zároveň zkoumání působení vlivů z těchto oblastí na jednoho určitého interpreta, v tomto případě Billyho Joela. Ve středoevropském prostoru nebylo napsáno mnoho literatury, která by se mi mohla stát opěrným bodem, a proto jsem se zaměřil na literaturu britskou pojednávající o problému analýzy rockové hudby, na knihy Allana F. Moora ( Rock, the primary text ) a Richarda Middletona ( Understanding popular music ). Tyto se ale zabývají pouze rockovou hudbou, takže mi slouží spíše jako příklad cesty, kterou je možno se vydat. Při analýze Joelových alb z let 1971 až 1993 budu postupovat tedy samostatně, ovšem s přihlédnutím ke kritériím stanoveným v těchto knihách, pokud budou použitelná pro Joelův styl . V českém prostředí se rockem a popem, jakož i jazzem, zabývá hlavně Ivan Poledňák, jež je společně s Ivanem Cafourkem autorem knihy Sondy do popu a rocku . Co se týče lexikografických prací, není jich v Česku poslední dobou mnoho. Relevantním textem z minulých let je jistě EJ - světová scéna. Pro základní vhled do problematiky rockové hudby lze použít i dvousvazkovou encyklopedii Františka Wicha Rock & Pop . Tato vychází z encyklopedie Josefa Vlčka Rock 2000 . V té jsem ale nalezl hodně faktografických chyb o Joelově životě, např. i tak zásadní jako je jiné datum a místo narození a některé roky vydání alb! Z tohoto důvodu jsem k ní později neuchyloval. Co se týče samotného Billyho Joela, nejrelevantnějším zdrojem mi byly jeho webové stránky www.billyjoel.com , na kterých jsem nalezl vše potřebné pro charakterizaci alb, obsazení kapely, citační údaje o albech, atd.

It came to my attention that over a billion dollars of the city budget is going towards the police and because of all the real issues going on I feel like it doesn’t make sense. There’s other industries that need more financial support like the health industry, also one of the biggest problems in Los Angeles is homeless people, after the quarantine is lifted there’s gonna be an even bigger homeless problem, therefore please rethink the budget.

"You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities," Ehrlichman said. "We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news.
