  • The Notion of Song, Identities, Discourses, and Power
    The Notion of Song, Identities, Discourses, and Power: Bridging Songs with Literary Texts to Enhance Students’ Interpretative Skills Elroy Alister Esdaille Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Elroy Alister Esdaille All Rights Reserved Abstract Sometimes students struggle to interpret literary texts because some of these texts do not lend themselves to the deduction of the interpretative processes with which they are familiar, but the same is not true when students pull interpretations from songs. Is it possible that students’ familiarity with songs might enable them to connect a song with a book and aid interpretation that way? This study attempted to explore the possibility of bridging songs to literary texts in my Community College English classroom, to ascertain if or how the use of song can support or extend students’ interpretive strategies across different types of texts. I investigated how songs might work as a bridge to other texts, like novels, and, if the students use songs as texts, to what extent do the students develop and hone their interpretative skills? Because of this, how might including songs as texts in English writing or English Literature curriculum contribute to the enhancement of students’ writing? The students’ responses disclosed that the songs appealed to their cognition and memories and helped them to interpret and write about the novels they read. Moreover, the students’ responses revealed that pairing or matching songs with novels strengthened interpretation of the book in a plethora of ways, such as meta-message deduction, applying contexts, applying comparisons, and examining thematic correlations.

    ACRONYM 11 - Round 2 1. This athlete gave a historic congressional testimony against actor Paul Robeson during a ​ season in which he earned his only batting title and MVP award. This player was the first ever MLB Rookie of the Year winner and was first signed by Branch (*) Rickey, who ​ scouted him from the Kansas City Monarchs. Major League Baseball commemorates this man every April 15, in which all players wear his jersey number.

ANSWER: Jackie Robinson (or Jack Roosevelt Robinson) <Nelson> ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. The star of this film parasailed into a promotional event for it at the 2017 Cannes Film ​ Festival. Several of this film’s characters seek to aid Alex, a teenager who nearly fails to contact his crush Addie McCallister.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Study People In
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of the Study People in the world are created equal in terms of human rights even though each person has different race, sex, religion or even political opinion. Yet, there are some people who do not treat others equally because of those differences, and the most obvious case is racial differences. Some people make racial differences as a gap to separate each other. They believe that one race is better or even superior than the other races, and this is what is called racism. According to John Arthur (2007), racism is a negative attitude that people take towards other people because of their race. Racism is a doctrine about which one is the superior or inferior than others (Light, Keller & Calhoun, 1989: 352). It has long been a major issue and can be found throughout the world, for example in the United States. Racism in the United States occurs because of white people feels superior to black people. It is well-known that the United States has historically been associated with this problem because of slavery, which is one of the violations of the human rights, was legal for centuries in this country. As we know, racial tension between the whites and blacks has been existed in American society since a long time ago. Racism in the United States began in the 17th century when Europeans brought African slaves to the American colonies. Throughout the 17th century, the Europeans turned to African slaves because they were plenty and cheaper than indentured servants who were mostly poor Europeans.

  • Subtle Semblances of Sorrow: Exploring Music, Emotional Theory, and Methodology
    Subtle Semblances of Sorrow: Exploring Music, Emotional Theory, and Methodology Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lindsay Alison Warrenburg, M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2019 Dissertation Committee: Daniel Shanahan, Advisor David Huron Anna Gawboy Dónal O’Mathúna Copyright by Lindsay Alison Warrenburg 2019 2 Abstract Music, perhaps more than any other art form, is able to influence moods and affect behavior. There are limitless accounts of music eliciting feelings of nostalgia, transcendence, and other seemingly ineffable emotions. In the scientific study of music and emotion, however, only five music-induced emotions have been studied in depth: happiness, sadness, fear, anger, and tenderness (Juslin, 2013). Although these emotions are certainly important and can be expressed and elicited through music listening, a pertinent question becomes the following: do these five words accurately capture all affective states related to music? Throughout my dissertation, I argue that in order to better understand emotional responses to musical stimuli, we need to change the way we use emotional terminology and examine emotional behaviors. In the first part of the dissertation (Chapters 1-4), I review how emotional music has been theoretically characterized and which excerpts have been utilized in research. I will show that the field of music and emotion is fraught with conceptual difficulties and that passages of music expressing a single emotion (e.g., sadness) span an unmanageably large area of emotional space. The second part of the dissertation (Chapters 5-8) provides an in-depth analysis of music that has been classified by other researchers as sad.
