Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Copyright by Kristin Anne Peterson 2000 ABSTRACT Despite the many decades that divide Nikolai Gogol's and Liudmila Petrushevskaia's writings, a number of their works are related by striking stylistic and thematic resemblance and a similarity of generic configuration. Working back and forth between these two writers, my dissertation seeks to unpack and shed light on issues that both authors grapple with. Their narratives are characterized by a common preoccupation with plots in which the main theme is the protagonist's search for identity. This dissertation considers the image of the stranger in Gogol's and Petrushevskaia's fiction in order to confront each author's unresolved feeling about him(her)self and the estrangement inherent in family origins, gender and literary acceptance. Both authors are writers on and of the margins, attempting to explain their position as outsiders, through the literary device of the stranger. The tensions in their works of fiction, a reflection of their own marginal positions, is expressed even in the generic forms they employ. Through a close reading of six stories by these two writers (Gogol's "Nevsky Prospect," "Diary of a Madman" and "Portrait," and Petrushevskaia's "Our Crowd." "Medea" and The Time: Night.) my dissertation provides a new imderstanding of both authors' constructions and manipulations of a sense of place. II Like Gogol's Petersburg stories, the works of Petrushevskaia I have selected are centered on the theme of alienation, and in each of the stories alienation from society is expressed through the eyes of the stranger, the outsider. Similar to Gogol's strangers, Petrushevskaia's strangers are liminal characters, figures that stand in the space between the known world and the unknown "outside" as reproduced in the text. While the trope of the stranger functions in Petrushevskaia's works on the same three levels as Gogol's, the spatial, temporal and psychological, her strangers are very different entities. Petrushevskaia's strangers all belonged at one time or another to a group. Her writings document that disturbing 'falling away' from the family or group, the movement from unity and acceptance to individuality and denial. The first chapter of this dissertation focuses on Gogol's appreciation of the arabesque, in his working out the problems of genre and place by drawing upon an exotic art form. Chapter two addresses Gogol's lifelong struggle as an "easterner" himself for legitimacy in the Russian literary canon, a struggle between his Ukrainian and Russian identities. Chapter three analyzes Gogol's struggle as figured through his portrayal of strangers in his fictional works. Chapter four discusses Petrushevskaia's postmodern strategies of writing women, a movement that celebrates the outsider, the de-centered, and simulating realities, with the aim of situating her prose within the contemporary Russian literary canon. The final chapter of this dissertation examines the way in which Petrushevskaia appropriates and revises mythologies of the feminine again focusing on the strangers, the outsiders from across time and space in order to establish her literary legitimacy in a canon centered on male authorship. HI Dedicated to my family IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express sincere appreciation to my co-advisers. Professors .\ngela K. Brintlinger and Sabra J. Webber for their guidance, insights, and support. I am fortunate to have been able to work with these professors from two different Departments at Ohio State, both of whom have seen this project through from beginning to end. Specifically, I thank Professor Brintlinger for supervising and advising me, discussing ideas with me, offering valuable suggestions and insights and reading countless drafts of this dissertation. My Gogol chapters owe much to Professor Brintlinger; thanks to her suggestions 1 discovered things that I might otherwise have overlooked. I am also greatly indebted to Professor Webber who always listened to my ideas and offered me support and guidance, asking just the right questions to challenge me to think across disciplines. The interdisciplinary nature of this dissertation, specifically my first chapter on Gogol and arabesques, as well as the final chapters on Petrushevskaia, are the end products of innumerable conversations with Professor Webber. Professors Helena Goscilo and Margaret Lynd have offered me wonderful support in discussing ideas, offering suggestions and encouraging me to "just finish." I also want to thank Professor Margarita Odesskaia who has encouraged me to believe in my topic and myself. Finally, 1 am also very grateful for the unconditional love and unwavering moral support of my friends, parents, siblings and grandmother. This dissertation is dedicated to my most precious source of support, my family. VI VITA September 26, 19 6 9.....................................

  • The Prose Edda
    THE PROSE EDDA SNORRI STURLUSON (1179–1241) was born in western Iceland, the son of an upstart Icelandic chieftain. In the early thirteenth century, Snorri rose to become Iceland’s richest and, for a time, its most powerful leader. Twice he was elected law-speaker at the Althing, Iceland’s national assembly, and twice he went abroad to visit Norwegian royalty. An ambitious and sometimes ruthless leader, Snorri was also a man of learning, with deep interests in the myth, poetry and history of the Viking Age. He has long been assumed to be the author of some of medieval Iceland’s greatest works, including the Prose Edda and Heimskringla, the latter a saga history of the kings of Norway. JESSE BYOCK is Professor of Old Norse and Medieval Scandinavian Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Professor at UCLA’s Cotsen Institute of Archaeology. A specialist in North Atlantic and Viking Studies, he directs the Mosfell Archaeological Project in Iceland. Prof. Byock received his Ph.D. from Harvard University after studying in Iceland, Sweden and France. His books and translations include Viking Age Iceland, Medieval Iceland: Society, Sagas, and Power, Feud in the Icelandic Saga, The Saga of King Hrolf Kraki and The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer.

REVERENCE OF THE AUTHOR. I think Scandinavian Paganism, to us here, is more interesting than any other. It is, for one thing, the latest ; it continued in these regions of Europe till the eleventh century : eight hundred years ago the Norwegians were still worshipers of Odin. It is interesting also as the creed of our fathers ; the men whose blood still runs in our veins, whom doubtless we still resemble in so many ways. Strange : they did believe that, while we believe so differently. Let us look a little at this poor Norse creed, for many reasons. We have tolerable means to do it ; for there is another point of interest in these Scandinavian mythologies : that they have been preserved so well. Neither is there no use in knowing something about this old Paganism of our fathers. Unconsciously, and combined with higher things, it is in us yet, that old faith withal.

Cooper: Prince Demidoff’s Greek Slave Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide 15, no. 2 (Summer 2016) Prince Demidoff’s Greek Slave by Helen A. Cooper On December 15, 1843, the man who would become Hiram Powers’s most distinguished private patron visited the artist’s studio for the first time.[1] Anatole Demidoff, Prince of San Donato, one of the greatest collectors of the age, had come to see for himself the work of the much-talked-about American sculptor in Florence.[2] For Powers (1805–73), the visit by such a notable person would have been cause for excitement at any time, but at this moment it held special promise. Although Powers’s creative energy was at a high point, the state of his finances was precarious. He had orders for scarcely a half-dozen portrait bust commissions and none for a statue of an ideal subject. He was seriously considering abandoning his career and returning to his home in Cincinnati, Ohio.[3] Prince Demidoff had a taste for contemporary marble sculpture. He admired the nearly finished plaster model of The Greek Slave and saw the marble block that was already being prepared—no version had yet been carved—but to Powers’s great disappointment, he left without placing an order.

  • The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski
    SPRING 2018 Volume 25, No. 1 NEWSLETTER City/Country: The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by karen zukowski hat can the studios of Daniel Chester French (1850–1931) tell us about the man who built them? He is often described as a Wsturdy American country boy, practically self-taught, who, due to his innate talent and sterling character, rose to create the most heroic of America’s heroic sculptures. French sculpted the seated figure in Washington, D.C.’s Lincoln Memorial, which is, according to a recent report, the most popular statue in the United States.1 Of course, the real story is more complex, and examination of French’s studios both compli- cates and expands our understanding of him. For most of his life, French kept a studio home in New York City and another in Massachusetts. This city/country dynamic was essential to his creative process. BECOMING AN ARTIST French came of age as America recovered from the trauma of the Civil War and slowly prepared to become a world power. He was born in 1850 to an established New England family of gentleman farmers who also worked as lawyers and judges and held other leadership positions in civic life. French’s father was a lawyer who eventually became assistant secretary of the U.S. Treasury under President Grant. Dan (as his family called him) came to his profession while they were living in Concord, Massachusetts. This was the town renowned for plain living and high thinking, the home of literary giants Amos Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau at Walden Pond nearby.

This is the National Gallery, which contains Britain's best-known collection of pictures. The collection was begun in 1824, with the purchase of thirty-eight pictures that included Hogarth's satirical "Marriage a la Mode" series, and Titian's "Venus and Adonis". The National Gallery is rich in paintings by Italian masters, such as Raphael, Correggio, and Veronese, and it contains pictures representative of all European schools of art such as works by Rembrandt, Rubens, Van Dyck, Murillo, El Greco, and nineteenth century French masters.

This approach to artistic pedagogy is consistent and can be chronologically traced at all levels of secondary, secondary professional, and higher education. Historically, in the Russian educational context, art pedagogy has been simultaneously implemented in institutions at various levels (schools, colleges, universities) and at insti- tutions of additional education (art schools, studios, workshops, leisure centers). The former institutions comprise secondary schools, including those that specialize in the aesthetic domain, whereas the latter encompass art schools and art studios at children’s creativity and leisure centers. They all represent a single area where art pedagogy at all stages of its historical development was formed and established. Thus, it is necessary to note a high degree of centralization and unity in the Russian educational sphere; its homogeneity is backed by unified learning approaches, curricula, textbooks, and edu- cational concepts over many decades.

Kennarar taka oft fyrst eftir því ef grípa þarf inn í hjá barni og mikilvægt er að beita heildarsýn í vinnu með börnum. Einungis eru starfandi tólf félagsráðgjafar í íslenskum grunnskólum í dag og því afar mikilvægt að fjölga þeim. Eitt af markmiðum félagsráðgjafa er að meta og greina þá þætti sem mögulega hafa áhrif á námsframvindu og almenna líðan nemenda. Grunnskólinn gegnir mikilvægu hlutverki á mótunarskeiði barna en hlutverk hans er að; „gefa nemendum tækifæri til að tileinka sér þekkingu, leikni og hæfni sem býr þá undir nám að loknum grunnskóla og ævilangt“ (Mennta- og menningarmálaráðuneytið, 2019). Markmið þessarar ritgerðar er að varpa ljósi á stöðu barna og unglinga með ADHD í grunnskólum og mikilvægi þess að þau hafi tækifæri og tíma til að þróa með sér seiglu. Til þess þurfa þau stuðning frá kennurum og fjölskyldu. Niðurstöður ritgerðarinnar sýna að innleiðing skólastefnunnar um skóla án aðgreiningar hefur ekki náðst að fullu.
