The content of these words simply mean: Hellas. It’s all about Education. This is the motto of the Ministry of National Education and Religious Affairs of Hellas that encompasses our philosophy. For without education, without “paideia”, Hellas that we all know today, and are proud to say that we come from, would have ceased to exist a long time ago, as it happened to so many other peoples in history. The main reason of the survival of the Hellenes throughout history is our “paideia”, in essence our civilization. For the two are inseparable, they have always been. Since antiquity, Hellas has been enchanting the world with its philosophers, their deep and analytical thought on every aspect of human life, with the progress of its people in all sciences and, above it all, with Democracy. Throughout the centuries, the Hellenic “Paideia” was the paradigm of every civilization. From the Renaissance times onward, the marriage between Christianity and Hellenism became the very foundation of what we know today as “Western civilization”. We can now understand why Hellenic “paideia” is so important for the whole world, as it lays in the foundations of our Western civilization. We, Hellenes, are proud carriers of this “paideia”. And the Greek-Americans, Americans of Hellenic descend, really, should be proud to come from Hellas, to be carriers of such an important civilization that radiates civility and spirit throughout the world. The Hellenic Government feels compelled to continue this legacy both in Hellas and wherever our fellow countrymen live around the world. Particularly in the United States, I am proud to inform that we send more than 170 teachers every year to teach Greek to the children of the omogeneia and gladly contribute more than 10 million dollars for the “Paideia” of the Greek-Americans. My deep wish and strong advice to all of you is to maintain your bonds with Hellas at all costs, throughout your life; and the only way to maintain this umbilical cord with the land of your ancestors is through learning and speaking the Greek language. For the loss of it would mean the loss of your identity in this vast American land, where other nationalities strive to find their own roots. And you have yours, your Hellenic roots. Be proud of your roots!

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.

Moore, Ph.D., Committee Chairperson Dr. Chris Green, Ph.D. Dr. Janet Badia, Ph.D. May 2009 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the narrative development of The Dream Songs while viewing Henry as the locus and the impetus of the various narrative strategies deployed therein. Through the abundance of generic and literary allusions present in The Dream Songs, Berryman's sequence functions both to engage and to interact with the Western literary canon. The first chapter of this thesis locates The Dream Songs within Petrarchan sequences. The second chapter treats Henry's and the unnamed speaker's local language and shows how their competing speech genres inform the sequence's modes.
