KACOOK-Phd-University of Edinburgh2012electronicsubmission Executing Character: Of Sympathy, Self-Construction and Adam Smith, in Early America, 1716-1826 by KRISTIN A. COOK Doctor of Philosophy English Literature The University of Edinburgh 2011 Cook 2 ABSTRACT This PhD thesis asks the following question: how does Adam Smith’s moral sense philosophy, particularly his notion of sympathy, as articulated through his Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) and his Lectures on Rhetoric and Belles Lettres (delivered 1762-63), rationally and relationally inform an understanding of socio-political character in Early America? Prioritising the American Revolutionary period, broadly marked by the years 1716 and 1826 (introduced by the opening of the first theatre in Williamsburg, Virginia), my analysis employs Smith’s theory as a rhetorical device for understanding discursive fields of human interconnection, wherein “sensible” selves are being rationally constructed and theatrically conceived. I read the culture of sensibility and the language of sentiment as underpinning legal and logical intellectual development within this context (drawing upon scholarship by Andrew Burstein, Gary Wills, Sarah Knott and Nicole Eustace in this regard), where sympathy is foregrounded as one particular aspect of sensible self-construction. I understand the sensible self within this environment as a conceit that is always already theatrically informed and performed: this character is ever responsive to surrounding audiences and ‘interpretive communities’ (à la Stanley Fish, and Rhys Isaac in his dramaturgic and ethnographic approach to The Transformation of Virginia), and is bound up in underlying rhetorics of costume, composition and comportment (engaging with Jay Fliegelman’s study concerning the performative underpinnings of American Independence: Declaring Independence: Jefferson, Natural Language, & the Culture of Performance). I develop this thesis through the course of four illustrative case studies wherein sensible American characters (in principle) and American characters (in fact) are standing trial. With respect to these, I enact a series of rhetorical executions, engaging with Adam Smith’s notion of sympathy—which is itself theatrically informed—alternately as follows: as a dialogue of conviction; as a grammar of œconomy; as a translative rhetoric of passage; and as a rhetorical conceit of logic and law. Each study depicts a different historical narrative relative to specific modes of sensible self-construction and “transformative” character development, and I treat each scenario with the same tool in order to effectively delineate and examine the original point. This approach is timely insofar as it qualifies Jonathan Lamb’s investigation into The Evolution of Sympathy during the Long Eighteenth Century (2009): it usefully extends Lamb’s work on sympathy more generally by prioritising Adam Smith’s theory in particular, and by reading Smith’s paradigmatic conceit (distinguished via the impartial spectator) into legal and logical fields of “lived interactions”. This thesis argues that Smith’s sympathetic system offers a uniquely incisive mechanism for engaging with the socio-political processes whereby American characters are being transformed into “sensible” American citizens.

In Edinburgh, I would like to especially thank Susan Manning for her supervision during the writing of this thesis; the STAR (Scotland’s Transatlantic Relations) Project for supporting it within the field of transatlantic studies; and the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities for its many kindnesses, both small and large. I am truly grateful to those STAR members and Fellows of the Institute who encouraged this project through to its completion, in particular Lise Sorenson, Andrew Taylor, Karina Williamson and Robert Wright. In addition, I would like to thank Francis D. Cogliano for his supervision and ready support; Jutta Mackwell and Sarah Sholl; the Early American History Group at the University of Edinburgh; and those at the University of Glasgow and the University of Virginia, who contributed to various seminar and video-conference discussions pertaining to portions of this work. In Virginia, I would like to offer sincere thanks to James Horn, the Gilder Lehrman Foundation and the John D. Rockefeller Library, Williamsburg, Virginia, for contributing to an early research fellowship that allowed me to undertake primary research. Special thanks as well to Gaye Wilson and the staff at the Robert H.

Special thanks are offered to the late Rhys Isaac, who during my time at the Rockefeller Library, when this thesis was in its earliest stages, was among the first to encourage my cross- disciplinary perspective, and who urged me to retain transatlantic performance and notions of character construction as subjects for engaging with Early American history. Sincere thanks as well to my supervisor Susan Manning for her kind support and for sharing with me a chapter from her forthcoming book. And most grateful appreciation to John Guy and Jeremy Lopez, Cook 8 both of whom—through their genuine enthusiasm as educators and scholars—inspired me to pursue doctoral work in the first place. Deep thanks to those family and friends who have borne along with me the peculiar pleasures and pains of transatlantic life. ~ Now to Him who is able . all honour, all glory.

THE MINNESOTA ASIAN COMMUNITIES ORAL HISTORY PROJECT The Asian population of Minnesota has grown dramatically since 1980, and in particular during the period from 1990 to the present. The Asian community is one of the largest and most diverse in the state, and is particularly noteworthy because its growth has been spread across such a wide spectrum of ethnic groups. The Minnesota Historical Society and the Council on Asian Pacific MinnesotansProject formed a partnership to create a series of projects of oral history interviews with Asian community leaders. The projects are intended to help chronicle the history, successes, challenges, and contributions of this diverse and highly important group of Minnesotans. History During the past twenty years the Minnesota Historical Society has successfully worked with many immigrant communities in theOral state toSociety ensure that the stories of their arrival, settlement, and adjustment to life in Minnesota becomes part of the historical record. While the Society has worked with the Asian Indian, Tibetan, Cambodian and Hmong communities in the recent past, the current project includes interviews with members of the Vietnamese, Filipino, Lao and Korean communities, with more planned for the future.

  • Where Is the Voice Coming From?”
    “WHERE IS THE VOICE COMING FROM?” QUERYING THE EVIDENCE FOR PAUL’S RHETORICAL EDUCATION IN 2 CORINTHIANS 10–13 by Ryan Scott Schellenberg A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Theology of the University of St. Michael’s College and the Biblical Department of the Toronto School of Theology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael’s College © Ryan S. Schellenberg 2012 “ ‘Where Is the Voice Coming From?’ Querying the Evidence for Paul’s Rhetorical Education in 2 Corinthians 10–13” Ryan Scott Schellenberg Doctor of Philosophy in Theology Biblical Department University of St. Michael’s College in the University of Toronto 2012 ABSTRACT Although it would be an exaggeration to speak of a consensus, a majority of scholars now sees Paul as a man of relatively high social status. Most often cited as evidence for such status is Paul’s putative education in formal rhetorical theory. The prevailing logic consists of two propositions: First, Paul’s letters can be analyzed according to the dictates of Greco- Roman rhetoric; therefore, Paul must have been well educated in rhetoric. Second, rhetorical education was available only among the wealthy elite; therefore, Paul must have been brought up in such circles. A number of scholars have observed that such argumentation fails to consider the extent to which rhetorical ability exists independently of formal education. But despite this general observation, there has been no attempt to determine whether the specific rhetorical competencies to which Paul’s letters attest admit of informal acquisition.

  • Personal Narratives and Public Trauma in Post-Katrina New Orleans
    “They probably got us all on the news”: Personal Narratives and Public Trauma in Post-Katrina New Orleans DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Katherine Greene Parker Horigan Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Amy Shuman, Advisor Professor Ray Cashman Professor Wendy Hesford Professor Maurice Stevens Copyright by Katherine Greene Parker Horigan 2013 Abstract Although stories and images of suffering during Hurricane Katrina saturated public discourse in 2005, the fundamental failures of communication that characterize this catastrophe remain undertheorized—especially the ease with which some stories have been accepted and others ignored. My dissertation brings together representations of the storm’s darkest moments, narrated by eyewitnesses, then shared in a broad spectrum of genres and rhetorical situations. Examining contexts of production, circulation, and reception, I demonstrate that the ways in which survivors’ personal stories are shared with larger audiences can either confirm or confound stereotypical representations of the narrators’ communities, with material consequences for their immediate aid and ongoing recovery. The approaches that drive my analysis include ethnography of communication and narrative performance, critical discourse analysis, rhetorical analysis of life writing, critical race theory, and critical theories of trauma. This project examines Katrina in a new light, focusing on the representational tactics of survivors and the processes by which their narratives are recognized or rejected. Beyond that, this study contributes to current theoretical understandings about how different communicative contexts and rhetorical situations shape the knowledge that is created about trauma and recovery.

The sun suddenly tumed palé, emitted brilliant rays of multi- colored light, spun three times on its axis and then, to the horror of the assembled multitude, “power-dived” dizzily to- wards earth. A terrified cry rose from the crowd as thousands fell to their knees thinking the end of the world was at hand. Among those present was a correspondent for one of the major News Services in this country. Next day, from Lisbon, he cabled a long and impressive story about the Miracle of the Sun. But it was never published.

  • Annual Report 2009-2010
    OFFICE OF THE OMBUDSMAN ENGLISH SERVICES ANNUAL REPORT 2009-2010 TABLE OF CONTENTS The Ombudsman’s Report 2 Le Rapport de l’ombudsman des services anglais 4 (French translation of The Ombudsman’s Report) Complaints reviewed by the Ombudsman 5 APPENDICES I Chart: Number of communications received 55 II Mandate of the Office of the Ombudsman 56 THE OMBUDSMAN’S REPORT 2009-10 Valedictories can often be formulaic. In this case, it is heart-felt. As I conclude my term as Ombudsman, I take away renewed respect for the consumers of CBC journalism and for the journalists who present it. A faithful reader of my reviews and reports will know that our journalistic work is not perfect—a state almost unimaginable for any group of human beings. But the broad sweep of conclusions shows that the organization remains committed to trying to practice journalism at a very high level, often under difficult circumstances. It has been heartening to note the respect with which the Ombudsman’s work has been received inside the organization and the thoughtfulness and care that has gone into the search for remedies when such are required. There have been less-heartening signs as well: the increasingly nasty tone of some of the correspondence, particularly from those with strong viewpoints on both domestic and international issues. While I should note the depth of knowledge and commitment by many of those who write, there is all too often a slide into language well outside what should be the parameters of intelligent discourse. It is probably now a cliché to note the influence of various modes of almost instant communication and of a political atmosphere in North America increasingly dominated by “shouting” instead of discussion.
