  • Coerced Parenthood As Family Policy: Feminism, the Moral Agency of Women, and Men's "Right to Choose"
    ALABAMA CIVIL RIGHTS & CIVIL LIBERTIES LAW REVIEW Volume 5 2013 COERCED PARENTHOOD AS FAMILY POLICY: FEMINISM, THE MORAL AGENCY OF WOMEN, AND MEN'S "RIGHT TO CHOOSE" Lisa Lucile Owens* ABSTRACT Part of what makes human agency moral is the demand that individu- als think through their choices and, to the extent that they are choices made freely and unilaterally, that they shoulder most if not all of the con- sequences that visit upon those choices. It is not uncommon for the state to intervene in this moral field, shifting to choice-bystanders or the entire society the consequences attracted by free and unilateral choices individu- als make. However, counter-intuitively, sometimes this burden realloca- tion operates to discount the moral agency of the individual whose choice was free and unilateral. Indeed, in a world of subtle forms of domination, disrespect for the moral agency of certain groups sometimes takes the form of a privilege that is benign on the surface while profoundly under- mining in its long term impact on those groups' claims to equal moral agency. This article argues that there is an aspect of women's reproductive privileges that undermine their equal moral agency. Unfortunately, this phenomenon of subjugation-through-rights-guarantees has escaped feminist analysis of reproductive rights. This article focuses on one instance of this phenomenon.

  • Japanese Aesthetics and Gustav Klimt: in Pursuit of a New Voice Svitlana Shiells
    Strand 2. Art Nouveau and Politics in the Dawn of Globalisation Japanese Aesthetics and Gustav Klimt: In Pursuit of a New Voice Svitlana Shiells Abstract At the end of the nineteenth century, Japonisme—an artistic lingua franca—became one of the most organic, overarching components of Gustav Klimt’s new art. This paper draws parallels between Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Sonja Knips and It ō Jakuch ū’s print Golden Pheasant and Bamboo in Snow . The discovery of an unexpectedly close dialogue between Klimt and Jakuch ū and the striking similarity of the formal language of the two works supports the paper’s thesis that It ō Jakuch ū’s print is the primary source of influence behind the conception and execution of the portrait and, by extension, that Klimt’s engagement with Japanese stimuli is one of the main engines behind his creative pursuit, starting at the end of the 1890s. This discovery challenges preconceived notions and existing concepts and illustrates the impossibility of understanding Klimt’s heritage comprehensively and adequately without examining the role of Japonisme in it. Keywords: Gustav Klimt, Japonisme, It ō Jakuch ū, the Vienna Secession, ukiyo-e prints. 1 In the wake of the World Fair of 1873 in Vienna, a strong wave of Japonisme permanently re- shaped the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. According to Hermann Bahr, the Viennese encountered the presence of “Japonisme in all the arts,” which were “impossible to understand without bearing in mind the influence of Japanese art.” 1 Japonisme indeed became a Zeitgeist in fin de siècle Vienna and, in the visual arts, Gustav Klimt was its main advocate.

  • The Roles of Client Religion, Counselor Religiosity, and Spiritual
    THE ROLES OF CLIENT RELIGION, COUNSELOR RELIGIOSITY, AND SPIRITUAL COMPETENCE IN COUNSELORS’ CLINICAL JUDGMENT A DISSERTATION IN Counseling Psychology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by DOMINICK A. SCALISE B.A., Truman State University, 2004 M.A., Truman State University, 2006 Kansas City, Missouri 2011 © 2011 DOMINICK ANTHONY SCALISE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED THE ROLES OF CLIENT RELIGION, COUNSELOR RELIGIOSITY, AND SPIRITUAL COMPETENCE IN COUNSELORS’ CLINICAL JUDGMENT Dominick Anthony Scalise, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2011 ABSTRACT The present study explored the roles that clients’ religious beliefs, therapists’ spiritual/religious beliefs, and therapists’ attitudes toward spirituality and religion may play in how therapists conceptualize a prospective client case. The study also explored the role that the construct “spiritual competence” played in moderating the relationship between therapists’ attitudes toward spirituality and religion and factors related to their clinical judgment of the client’s concerns. One hundred seventy-six therapists and doctoral students were randomly assigned to read one of four vignettes differing only on the client’s spiritual/religious beliefs and practices (Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, or an unstated religious preference). In order to account for various forms of clinical decision-making, a MANCOVA was used with dependent constructs of psychopathology, attribution for the problem, and prognosis. A separate MANCOVA was conducted in order to determine whether the interaction of client religious orientation (religious vs. unidentified religion) and counselor spiritual competence (high vs. low) would be related to different clinical judgments.

Some studies support the popular stereotype that women are more emotionally supportive than men, while others find no gender differences in the amount of emotional support men and women provide to one another in a romantic relationship. These conflicting findings may be the result of shifting standards for men and women in terms of the amount of emotional support that is expected to be provided by each within a relationship.

Nash Michael J. Ash (Chair of Committee) (Member) Joyce E. Juntune G. Patrick Slattery, Jr. (Member) (Member) Michael R. Benz (Head of Department) May 2005 Major Subject: Educational Psychology iii ABSTRACT “I Used To Be Gifted:” Case Studies of Lost Potential Among Adolescent Females. (May 2005) Virginia Maurer McDonnell B.S., Iowa State University; M.S., Iowa State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. William Nash This case study focuses on the influence of certain sociocultural factors on the ability of adolescent girls to fulfill their potentials. Specifically, the purpose of this research is to advance an alternative perspective on the relationship between the sociocultural influences of friendship, mother/daughter relationship, school experience, and body image and a loss of potential among adolescent girls from a historical, poststructural, postmodern-feminist perspective. The dissertation is presented in the form of narrative from both the author’s and girls’ and women’s perspectives in order to seek a rich and thick description. Throughout the study, the author integrates moments from her own journey during adolescence with the young girls and their mothers or grandmothers encountering the oftentimes overwhelming negative sociocultural challenges existing today.

Rhea Perlman took over the role of Nora, after Rosie O’Donnell, became ill. Directed by Scott Elliott, this production will play a limited Off-Broadway engagement February 20 – April 1, with Opening Night on Thursday, March 8 at The Pershing Square Signature Center (The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre, 480 West 42nd Street). Through the microcosm of a rural Connecticut mental health center, Tony Award-winning playwright David Rabe conjures a whole American community on the edge. Like their patients and their families, Dr. Michaels (Ed Harris), his colleague Evangeline (Amy Madigan) and the clinic itself teeter between breakdown and survival, wielding dedication and humanity against the cunning, inventive adversary of mental illness, to hold onto the need to fight – and to live. Inspired by a real clinic, Rabe finds humor and compassion in a raft of richly drawn characters adrift in a society and a system stretched beyond capacity.

Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida December 2015 Copyright 2015 by Céline Guillerm ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The seed of this dissertation was planted during my first year enrolled as a doctoral student, when I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The following year, I met Dr. Scodari when I took her course in “Feminist Cultural Studies.” Her class was truly a revelation and she became my mentor. Therefore, I would like to express my sincere and deepest gratitude to Dr. Scodari for her expert guidance and support throughout my research. I am forever grateful for her patience and encouragement, and for always being available. I also would like to thank Dr. Munson and Dr. Blattner for serving on my committee. Thank you for believing in me and encouraging me all these years. Finally, I would like to thank my parents, my sisters, my nieces and my nephew, my grandmother, my uncle, and my dear friends for their love and support. I love you. iv ABSTRACT Author: Céline Guillerm Title: A Feminist Cultural Study of Identity, Hair Loss, and Chemotherapy Institution: Florida Atlantic University Dissertation Advisor: Dr. Christine Scodari Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Year: 2015 The main aim of this dissertation is to discuss the way women negotiate the cultural meaning of hair loss, alopecia, as a result of undergoing chemotherapy, and to understand, accordingly, how cancer’s cultural effects regarding women can be deeply different from those of men.
