Gender and Ethnocentrism in Roman Accounts of Germany Maggie Thompson For a woman who sells her chastity there is no pardon; neither beauty nor youth, nor wealth can find her a husband. For in Germany no one laughs at vice, nor calls mutual corruption “the spirit of the age.” (Tacitus, Germania, 19) It may be tempting to use quotes such as the one above to make inferences about what life must have been like for the German women Tacitus wrote about. However, ethnographies such as the Germania are more useful in garnering information about Tacitus’ Rome than they are accurate accounts of Roman Germany. When constructing the cultural geography of the world they lived in, the Romans often defined themselves, like the Greeks before them, in contrast to a cultural “Other” or “barbarian.” This dichotomy between Roman and non-Roman, West and East, civilized and uncivilized, is a regular theme throughout Classical literature and art.

  • Warriors As the Feminised Other
    Warriors as the Feminised Other The study of male heroes in Chinese action cinema from 2000 to 2009 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chinese Studies at the University of Canterbury by Yunxiang Chen University of Canterbury 2011 i Abstract ―Flowery boys‖ (花样少年) – when this phrase is applied to attractive young men it is now often considered as a compliment. This research sets out to study the feminisation phenomena in the representation of warriors in Chinese language films from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Mainland China made in the first decade of the new millennium (2000-2009), as these three regions are now often packaged together as a pan-unity of the Chinese cultural realm. The foci of this study are on the investigations of the warriors as the feminised Other from two aspects: their bodies as spectacles and the manifestation of feminine characteristics in the male warriors. This study aims to detect what lies underneath the beautiful masquerade of the warriors as the Other through comprehensive analyses of the representations of feminised warriors and comparison with their female counterparts. It aims to test the hypothesis that gender identities are inventory categories transformed by and with changing historical context. Simultaneously, it is a project to study how Chinese traditional values and postmodern metrosexual culture interacted to formulate Chinese contemporary masculinity. It is also a project to search for a cultural nationalism presented in these films with the examination of gender politics hidden in these feminisation phenomena. With Laura Mulvey‘s theory of the gaze as a starting point, this research reconsiders the power relationship between the viewing subject and the spectacle to study the possibility of multiple gaze as well as the power of spectacle.

  • Domestic Blitz: a Revisionist History of the Fifties
    Domestic Blitz: A Revisionist History of the Fifties Gaile McGregor The fir st version of this paper was written for a 1990 conference at the University of Kansas entitled "Ikë s America." It was an interesting event—though flawed somewhat by the organizers' decision to schedule sessions and design program flow according to academic category. Eminently sensible from an administrative standpoint, this arrangement worked counter to the articulated aim of stimulating interdisciplinary dialogue by encouraging participants to spend all their time hanging out with birds of their own feather—economists with economists, historians with historians, literati with literati. Like many of the would-be innovative conferences, symposia, andevenfull-scale academic programsmounted over the last decade, this one was multi- rather than truly inter-disciplinary. This didn' t mean that I wasn t able to find any critical grist for my mill. Substantive aspects aside, the two things I found most intriguing about what I heard during those few days were, first, the number and variety of people who had recently "rediscovered" the fifties, and second, the extent to which the pattern of their rediscovery paralleled my own. Arriving there convinced I had made a major breakthrough in elucidating the darker and more complex feelings that undercolored the broadly presumed conservatism of the decade, what I heard over and over again from presenter s was the same (gleeful or earnest) revisions, the same sense of surprise at how much had been overlooked. Two messages might be taken from this. The first is that the fifties is suddenly relevant again. The second and perhaps more sobering concerns the mind-boggling power of 0026-3079/93/3401 -005$ 1.50/0 5 American culture to foster an almost complete collective amnesia about events and attitudes of the not-very-distant past.

Hall A generally accurate appraisal of Western films might claim that In­ dians as hostiles are grouped into one undifferentiated mass. Popular hostile groups include the Sioux (without much differentiation between tribes or bands, the Apaches, and the Comanches). Today we will examine the images of Apache and Comanche groups as presen­ ted in several Western films. In some cases, these groups are shown with specific, historically identifiable leaders such as Cochise, Geron­ imo, or Quanah Parker.

  • Elite Masculinity in Eighteenth-Century British Literature
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: ―WELL-DISPOS‘D SAVAGES‖: ELITE MASCULINITY IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY BRITISH LITERATURE Elizabeth Veisz, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Dissertation directed by: Professor Laura Rosenthal Department of English Writers in eighteenth-century Britain catered to, and helped create, public fascination with the brazen, sometimes illicit, often violent exploits of elite and aristocratic men. Literary critics have seen this elite male figure as part of an outmoded order superseded over the course of the century by the rising British middle class. Debauched aristocratic characters are often reformed over the course of eighteenth-century narratives, reflecting a larger societal shift in values towards polite restraint. As expressed in my dissertation‘s title phrase, however, many of the period‘s writers develop elite male characters whose behaviors and self-presentation blur those very boundaries between oppositional categories, like savagery and civilization, on which both Enlightenment theories of human progress and polite culture‘s prescriptions for decorum were presumed to rest. Through an examination of this paradoxical figure in novelistic, dramatic, and autobiographical literature, my dissertation demonstrates that the oft-repeated reform-of- the-rake narrative calls attention to obstacles and resistance to the ascendancy of a middle-class culture, not to the inevitability of its rise. Each chapter centers on a site that is accessible to a larger public only through literary or dramatic accounts, including the club, the elite school, the court, and the overseas estate. Chapter One, ―‗Our imperial reign‘: Addison, Steele, Gay and the London Mohocks,‖ examines writings about a gang of rakish gentlemen rumored to prowl the streets of Augustan London.

    Social Inequalities and Cancer Kogevinas, M., Pearce, N., Susser, M. and Boffetta, P., eds IARC Scientific Publications No. 138 International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, 1997 Diet and cancer: possible explanations for the higher risk of cancer in the poor J.D. Potter Humans have always had to eat; diets have always contained the same nutrients and bioactive constituents. Therefore, some have argued, the present pattern of diseases and changes in that pattern cannot be causally linked to dietary intake. This argument, its naivety notwithstanding, raises some important issues for the way we think about the epidemiology of nutrition and disease. Current research on diet and specific diseases is based, obviously, on the premise that this argument is false. This chapter uses a broad brush to present the evidence for a significant and causal association between eating patterns and cancer. It shows that, far from being an implausible link, the relationship between dietary patterns and cancer is largely explained by the dependence of humans on their food supply - dependence not merely in the sense of providing energy to sustain life, but more related to evolutionarily adaptive patterns of food intake and contemporary aberrations in those patterns. The chapter also shows that it is plausible that at least part of the explanation for the higher risk of cancer among the poor in both rich countries and poor countries relates to the extent of the aberrations in food supply and eating patterns. The starting point for this chapter is a diet to which 1985). We cannot know exactly the nature of diets humans are adapted.

  • Escape from Reason Frances A
    IVP CLASSICS Escape from Reason Frances A. Schaeffer Clabon Bogan Jr 609.230.5809 [email protected] IVP CLASSICS Escape from Reason Frances A. Schaeffer Clabon Bogan Jr 609.230.5809 [email protected] ESCAPE FROM REASON Chapter 5 takes philosophy into the word of art, discussing such artists as Heidegger, Malraux, Picasso, Dali, Leonard Bernstein, and Henry Miller. Ultimately, pornography and the loosing of one’s morals replaces any thought of religion, becoming the upper-story of freedom. “We observed that from Rousseau’s time the dichotomy was drawn between nature and freedom. Nature had come to represent determinism, the machine, with man in the hopeless situation of being caught in the machine. Then, in the upper story, we find man struggling for freedom. The freedom that was being sought was an absolute freedom with no limitations. There is no God, nor even a universal, to limit him, so the individual seeks to express himself with total freedom, and yet, at the same time, he feels the damnation of being in the machine. This is the tension of modern man. [Schaeffer, Francis A. Escape from Reason (IVP Classics) (p. 75). InterVarsity Press] ESCAPE FROM REASON In much of his work, Swiss write and composer, Jean-Jacques Rousseau addresses freedom more than any other problem of political philosophy and aims to explain how man in the state of nature is blessed with an enviable total freedom. Rousseau’s philosophy impacted governments around the world elevating the importance of “the social contract” and its inseparable alliance with individual freedoms • He argued that the people and the government form a social contract.

  • Wordsworth's Poetry: the Child As Noble Savage
    WORDSWORTH'S POETRY: THE CHILD AS NOBLE SAVAGE A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH AND THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE KANSAS STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE OF EMPORIA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREY£NTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS By DALE KELLER August, 1968 -r i I ,~2 Approved for the ¥ajor Department ~,~ Approved for the Graduate Council ,. -I ! ; ,)-".,."-6/ ~,101'" -1 '!' "i {,.1 '•.' .-,01 PREFACE Of the numerous critical works concerned with Wordsworth's poetry, none seems to investigate thoroughly the subject of Wordsworth's treatment of childhood as a logical outgrowth of the Noble Savage convention. Yet, a relationship between the Noble Savage and the child in Wordsworth's poetry seems obvious to this author. Both possess the same ideals, and both may be similarly defined. Also, belief and interest in the Noble Savage convention and real savages reached a climax at the end of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth century when Wordsworth was comoosing his finest poetry. Therefore, this author chose to examine Wordsworth's poetry in light of the Noble Savage tradition. I wish to thank Dr. Charles E. Walton for his much appreciated advice and assistance in the preparation of this resedrch and Richard L. Roahen for his patient assistance in the criticism of the manuscript. August, 1968 D.K.
