Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation
Images of the Past: Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David M. Bond, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Sabra J. Webber, Advisor Johanna Sellman Philip Armstrong Copyrighted by David Bond 2017 Abstract The construction of stories about identity, origins, history and community is central in the process of national identity formation: to mould a national identity – a sense of unity with others belonging to the same nation – it is necessary to have an understanding of oneself as located in a temporally extended narrative which can be remembered and recalled. Amid the “memory boom” of recent decades, “memory” is used to cover a variety of social practices, sometimes at the expense of the nuance and texture of history and politics. The result can be an elision of the ways in which memories are constructed through acts of manipulation and the play of power. This dissertation examines practices and practitioners of nostalgia in a particular context, that of Tunisia and the Mediterranean region during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using a variety of historical and ethnographical sources I show how multifaceted nostalgia was a feature of the colonial situation in Tunisia notably in the period after the First World War. In the postcolonial period I explore continuities with the colonial period and the uses of nostalgia as a means of contestation when other possibilities are limited. -
Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context. -

There had yet to be a punk rock band there until the mid-2000s. In the following paper, I detail the rise of heavy metal in Morocco. Beginning with the early metal scene, I trace through critical moments in its growth, building up to the origins of the Moroccan punk scene and the state of those subcultures in recent years. -

According to Frost’s play, once people became aware of good and evil God “had to prosper good and punish evil” until Job’s miserable life demonstrated that “There’s no connection man can reason out / Between his just deserts and what he gets” (374). The God of A Masque of Reason has no desire to enforce justice. By exploring this concept of divinity, Frost calls into question the existence of any source of meaning and reason beyond what people can find on earth. -
Angela Carter and the Fairy Tale
Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education “But you can’t get me out of the story” Feminist Revision of Fairy Tales in Short Stories by Margaret Atwood and Angela Carter — Paula Ryggvik Mikalsen Master thesis in English Literature Eng-3992 May 2015 THESIS ABSTRACT Margaret Atwood and Angela Carter are but two of many authors who have appropriated the fairy tale genre and used its plethora of tales as intertext and playground for their artistic vision. This thesis will look selected stories from The Bloody Chamber (1979), Bluebeard’s Egg (1983) and Good Bones (1992). These collections engage with the fairy-tale canon, in both form, content and intertext, and underlines the efficacy of using fairy tales to offer critique of patriarchal mechanisms and harmful practices. This thesis will examine seven short stories from these collections by using postructuralist and feminist theory to analyse the process. The focus will be on whether it is possible to revision fairy tales using the traditional elements and topoi of the genre and still create narratives that can satisfy feminist values, without simply reversing the gender roles, i.e. the recipe for a “fractured fairy tale. Moreover, the thesis will give an account of the fairy-tale genre, the folktale, the fantasy genre and the Gothic fairy tale, to adumbrate the traits and elements that Carter and Atwood employ. The main theoretical framework will consist of using theories by postructuralist feminist theorists like Hélène Cixous, Julia Kristeva and Luce Irigaray, and postructuralist Jacques Derrida. By giving an account of their theories on deconstruction of language, l’ectriture feminine, jouissance, and meaning-making, this thesis will the framework to examine whether Carter and Atwood manages to rewrite fairy tales implemented with feminist values, without adopting the style of male writers. -
Franklin Roosevelt, the Democratic Party, and the Circular Letter of 1924
A PARTY IN PERIL: FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AND THE CIRCULAR LETTER OF 1924 Joseph D. Faykosh A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2016 Committee: Scott C. Martin, Advisor Ellen Gorsevski Graduate Faculty Representative Michael Brooks Douglas Forsyth Nicole Kalaf-Hughes © 2016 Joseph D. Faykosh All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Scott Martin, Advisor The Democratic Party suffered its worst electoral defeat in 1924, when compromise candidate John Davis survived a brutal convention in New York City only to be soundly defeated by incumbent President Calvin Coolidge. It was a demoralizing defeat for the party, and Franklin D. Roosevelt seized this fraught moment to take the reins as party leader and begin reforming the party to fit his vision. Roosevelt composed a “Circular Letter,” listing five fundamental principles that the Democratic Party should unite behind, and sent it to delegates and party leaders throughout the country. Whether he believed that the responses would simply endorse his suggestions and reorient him as party leader or not, he received a variety of feedback, demonstrating the deep fissures within the Democratic Party and a distinct lack of direction or shared vision. This dissertation focuses on the convergence of two fortunes: the Democratic Party, going through one of its darkest periods, and Franklin Roosevelt, recovering from his tragic illness and trying to reclaim his position in the party. My dissertation provides the most significant examination of the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924. Analyzing the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924 provides an opportunity to understand a party and politician in peril: the Democratic Party at its lowest moment since the Civil War; Franklin Roosevelt at a personal and political crossroads; and how Roosevelt’s Circular Letter and responses provided a way for both the party and his political career to return to prominence.
