University of Florida Thesis Or Dissertation Formatting ALGERIANS REMEMBER: AN ORAL HISTORY OF FRENCH COLONIAL ENCOUNTER By KHADIDJA ARFI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2014 1 © 2014 Khadidja Arfi 2 To the Algerian people and those whose testimories have been neglected in writing their histories around the world and at all times 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank my professors for their support throughout my studies at the University of Florida and many other institutions. I express my deepest thanks and gratitude to Dr. Peter Schmidt for his continuous mentoring, support, and advice. I express my gratitude to my committee members Dr. Faye Harrison, Dr. Abdoulaye Kane, Dr. Maria Stoilkova, and Dr. Paul Ortiz for their encouragement and very constructive critiques throughout this project. I am grateful to Algerians in the town and villages of Dellys, Algeria. They were most welcoming, loving, generous, and supportive in making this project a successful one. I especially remember in my prayers those among them who passed away and left this world before I was able to publish and transmit their testimonies. I thank many Dellysians who were so helpful in facilitating my stay and aiding me to access many places and institutions. I mostly present my great gratitude to my host family for their compassion and support and for providing me with delicious food and comfortable stay throughout my fieldwork. I am grateful to my parents, Mohamed Kheder and Souag Fatma, who never stopped showing their love and compassion until they passed away. I cherish their love for knowledge even though they were deprived of schooling during the colonial era. They would be very proud with this achievement. I am grateful to my family at large for their love and respect, especially, my siblings, sisters and brothers in law, uncles and aunts, cousins, nieces, and nephews who have been very supportive of this project. I thank my sister Souad for her support and enlightening chats that made my writing go smooth. I am so thankful for my daughter Soumaya whose kindness, love and friendship are beyond description. I thank her and her husband Noureddine for their words and encouragement and for giving me the chance to be a grandmother and cherish for the rest of my life my precious and amazing 4 grandkids, Mariam, Youssef, and the coming one. I thank Mariam and Youssef for their laughs making my day every time I hear them. I pray that their lives will be happy and fulfilling. I hope they would be among those who love knowledge and live in peace and harmony with the world. Finally, I cannot say enough to show my appreciation and love to my love and husband Badredine, for his continuous support throughout life and especially my studies and the writing of this dissertation. Thank you for a long life companionship. This is a life dream coming true: learning, writing and teaching. My ultimate gratitude goes to my Creator, Allah Almighty, Alhamdu li Allah. 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

  • 2 Days in NEW York PRESENTED by ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
    The Premieres program showcases some of the most highly anticipated dramatic films of the coming year. Catch world premieres and the latest work from established directors at the Sundance Film Festival before they create a splash at local theatres. 2 DAYS IN New York DIRECTOR: Julie Delpy France, 2011, 91 min., color English and French with English subtitles Marion and Mingus live cozily—perhaps too cozily—with their cat and two young children from previous relationships. However, when Marion’s jolly father (played by director Delpy’s real-life dad), her oversexed sister, and her sister’s outrageous boyfriend unceremoniously descend upon them for a visit, it initiates two unforgettable days that will test Marion and Mingus’s relationship. With their unwitting racism and sexual frankness, the French triumvirate hilariously has no boundaries or filters . and no person is left unscathed in its wake. Directed and cowritten by Julie Delpy, 2 Days in New York is a deliciously PRESENTED by Entertainment Weekly witty romp. One of the pleasures of this follow-up film to 2 Days in Paris is the addition of Chris Rock, who—amid the Gallic mayhem—convincingly plays the straight man as Marion’s hipster American boyfriend. With great skill and energy, Delpy heightens cultural differences to comedic extremes but also manages to show that sometimes change is the best solution to a relationship that’s been pushed to its limit.—K.Y. Pr: Christophe Mazodier Ci: Lubomir Bakchev Ed: Isabelle Devinck PrD: Judy Rhee Wr: Julie Delpy, Alexia Landeau Principal Cast: Julie Delpy, Chris Rock, Albert Delpy, Alexia Landeau, Alex Nahon Monday, January 23, 6:30 p.m.

    CORTÉS AFTER THE CONQUEST OF MEXICO: CONSTRUCTING LEGACY IN NEW SPAIN By RANDALL RAY LOUDAMY Bachelor of Arts Midwestern State University Wichita Falls, Texas 2003 Master of Arts Midwestern State University Wichita Falls, Texas 2007 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December, 2013 CORTÉS AFTER THE CONQUEST OF MEXICO: CONSTRUCTING LEGACY IN NEW SPAIN Dissertation Approved: Dr. David D’Andrea Dissertation Adviser Dr. Michael Smith Dr. Joseph Byrnes Dr. James Cooper Dr. Cristina Cruz González ii Name: Randall Ray Loudamy Date of Degree: DECEMBER, 2013 Title of Study: CORTÉS AFTER THE CONQUEST OF MEXICO: CONSTRUCTING LEGACY IN NEW SPAIN Major Field: History Abstract: This dissertation examines an important yet woefully understudied aspect of Hernán Cortés after the conquest of Mexico. The Marquisate of the Valley of Oaxaca was carefully constructed during his lifetime to be his lasting legacy in New Spain. The goal of this dissertation is to reexamine published primary sources in light of this new argument and integrate unknown archival material to trace the development of a lasting legacy by Cortés and his direct heirs in Spanish colonial Mexico. Part one looks at Cortés’s life after the conquest of Mexico, giving particular attention to the themes of fame and honor and how these ideas guided his actions. The importance of land and property in and after the conquest is also highlighted. Part two is an examination of the marquisate, discussing the key features of the various landholdings and also their importance to the legacy Cortés sought to construct.

Here we applied the scale to a recent earthquake (Mw 6.8, geological effects [Allen 1975, Audemard and Michetti 2003) that took place offshore in the province of Boumerdès in the north 2011] contributed to the development of the ESI scale in of Algeria along the boundary between African and Eurasian plates.
