We in the West are not so logical. We do not punish the tutor for the pupil's misdeeds, and, on the other hand, those of us who escape the gallows are apt to forget to what extent our escape is due to the men who educated us, I wondex how many of the thousands of 'Old Blues' who have passed through your class-room realise how great is the debt they owe you. Most of us knew you first as the dread Pluto of the De- tention School. Without the care that in that capacity you lavished on us we should probably all be worse men than we are. That point of view, however, did not occur to us at the time, and it was not until in fear and dread we entered your class-room that we began to learn to love you. When we first came to you, not as defaulters but as pupils, we believed that the science of Geography consisted of nothing more than an endless string of meaningless and unpronounceable names. You taught us that the world was a very wonderful and fasci- nating place, and made us yearn for the time when we should be able to go forth and have a look at it for ourselves. We came DEDICATION to you holding the belief that the science of History was nothing more than 'William-the-Conquerer-ten-sixty-six-William-the- Second-ten-eighty-seven,' multiplied by dreariness to an in- definite degree. Under the magic of your wand we saw Norman knight and Saxon footman fight to the death on Senlac Hill; we heard the thunder of Spanish guns echo along the Sus- sex shore; we mingled with the crowd in Whitehall, and, with a clearer focus than our forefathers could have used, saw how much there was of good and how much of base both in the king who died there and in the men who killed him. You taught us directly the measure of the privileges and responsibilities be- queathed to us by those who lived and fought and died for England. Indirectly you taught us that knowledge has a value more precious than its power to win marks in school and money in after life. Soon after I began work on this book, I re-read the lines, addressed by Rudyard Kipling to one of his former masters: 'Let us now praise famous men'— Men of little showing— For their work continueth. And their work continueth, Broad and deep continueth. Greater than their knowing ! The words immediately called you to my mind. For that reason I dedicate this book to you, not in payment of the debt I owe you—I have not wealth enough for that—but in ac- knowledgment of it. RALPH DURAND. VI INTRODUCTION This book is offered to the public in the hope that it will prove of service to those to whom Mr. Rudyard Kipling's poems are a constant source of delight. Rudyard Kipling has made Extended observation of the ways and works of man, From the Four-mile Radius roughly to the plains of Hindustan, with excursions into prehistoric times, ships' engine- rooms, Freemasonry, and other subjects. His poems consequently abound in precise technicalities, archaic words, and slang expressions enough to justify a glossary of the terms that he uses. An engineer does not need to refer to a dictionary for a definition of the word slip; a soldier perhaps understands what exactly are slingers; a Biblical student may know all that is now guessed as to the whereabouts of Javan, and a classical scholar needs no information as to the difference between a thranite and a thalamite. But the general reader who wishes to understand these terms must search for them in dictionaries and other works of reference, and may possibly find his search fruitless. When doubt arose as to whether expressions were too well known to need explanation, it was de- vil INTRODUCTION cided, for the benefit of the foreign reader, to err on the side of giving too much rather than too Httle infor- mation. A mere glossary of the obscure expressions which he uses would, however, leave the student of Rudyard Kipling's poems but half satisfied. For this reason no apology is needed for embodying in this book short biographical notices, such as those on ' Eddi of Man- hood End,' on ' Gholam Hyder, the Red Chief,' and on * her that fell at Simon's Town in service on our foes,' or for including references to the rite of johar, the myth concerning 'Upsaras,' or the original pro- pounder of the question 'Is not Calno like Carchem- ? ish ' And this book jvould certainly be incomplete without an explanation of the personal interest that attaches to 'The Rhyme of the Three Captains.' My notes follow the order of the poems as they appear in the various volumes in which they have been collected, from Departmental Ditties to Songs from Books. The last pages are devoted to a few poems that appeared originally in Mr. Kipling's prose works but have not yet been collected into volume form. An alphabetical list of titles and a general inr dex will be found at the end of the volume. RALPH DURAND.

    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak 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 May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

H. VA PREFACE In the course of an attempt to trace the history of the Short- Story in English it came to seem desirable, three or four years ago, to examine with some thoroughness, as the terminus ad quern, the work of Rudyard Kipling. The results of this study were rather fully set forth in the form of notes intended for class-room lectures. Revision and publication of these notes was advised by Professor Bliss Perry of Harvard College and by Professor Charles Mills Gayley of the University of Califor- nia. To these good friends of the writer this little book owes its being. Without their criticisms and suggestions, moreover, it would have been even less worthy than it is of the author with whom it is concerned. To him, to Mr. Kipling himself, thanks are due for gracious permission to take from his works the many illustrative passages with which these pages are adorned.

Bairister-at-Law. LONDON THE BOOKMAN'S JOURNAL 173, FLEET STREET, E.C.4. NEW YORK JAMES F. DRAKE. INC. 1922 z f\5as oz^l — PREFACE To the fact that in the course of many years I gathered tog-ether what became known as the most comprehensive collection of the writings of Rudyard Kipling, and to the fact that no-one has compiled an exhaustive bibliography of these writings is due this work. How great has been the need for a full and up to date bibliography of Kipling's works needs no telling. From Lahore to London and from London to New York his various publishers have woven a bibliographical maze such as surely can hardly be paralleled in the literature about literature. The present attempt—the first which has been made in England, so far as I know, on any extensive scale—to form a detailed guide to this bibliographical maze is necessarily tentative; and despite all errors and omissions, for which, as a mere tyro, I crave indulgence, I trust that the following pages will provide not only a handy record for collectors of the writings of our great imperialist poet and novelist, but a basis for the fuller and more perfect work, which the future will bring forth.
