ABSTRACT This inquiry indicates that Experiential Well-Being can be positively impacted through embodiment practices. It was argued that many in the U.S. are experiencing a lack of well-being, and that the field of psychology has addressed the concept of well-being but with two limitations: I) the studies have been correlational and have not focused upon increasing the experience of well-being, and 2) the concept well­ being has been viewed as solely a cognitive/emotional construct. The field of somadcs, which highlights theory and practice of the mind-body-spirit connection, holds the potential for addressing well-being while moving beyond these two limitations. Utilizing the theoretical assumptions of somatics. a more integrated approach to well-being was proposed- This holistic perspective of well-being was called Experiential Well-Being (EWB) and was defined as the personal experience, or perceived sense of wholeness or wellness, satisfaction and contentment in the areas of mind, body, and spirit. It was hypothesized that Somatic Education, a four week embodiment practice that combined elements o f hatha yoga, qigong, and stress- reduction, could positively impact participant EWB. ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. Based upon participant observation, interviews, and evaluative surveys it was concluded that participant concepts o f well-being were holistic in nature, expanding beyond the mental domain to include physical and spiritual aspects as well. Thus, participant perspectives of well-being paralleled the newly introduced concept Experiential Well-Being. It was also concluded that Somatic Education did play a role in increasing participant well-being particularly in terms o f their perceived sense o f relaxation, stress-reduction. mental clarity, and increased energy or vitality. Another important participant experience was an almost ineffable feeling of being lengthened, less constricted, or more free. Though participants viewed Somatic Education as positively affecting their well-being, the effects o f the classes were short-term, lasting a few hours to one week. Thus, a main conclusion of the study was the need for ongoing practice as well as education of the general public to create a common language/experience in order for somatic practices to impact EWB on a larger scale. m Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • A Humble Protest a Literary Generation's Quest for The
    A HUMBLE PROTEST A LITERARY GENERATION’S QUEST FOR THE HEROIC SELF, 1917 – 1930 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jason A. Powell, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Steven Conn, Adviser Professor Paula Baker Professor David Steigerwald _____________________ Adviser Professor George Cotkin History Graduate Program Copyright by Jason Powell 2008 ABSTRACT Through the life and works of novelist John Dos Passos this project reexamines the inter-war cultural phenomenon that we call the Lost Generation. The Great War had destroyed traditional models of heroism for twenties intellectuals such as Ernest Hemingway, Edmund Wilson, Malcolm Cowley, E. E. Cummings, Hart Crane, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and John Dos Passos, compelling them to create a new understanding of what I call the “heroic self.” Through a modernist, experience based, epistemology these writers deemed that the relationship between the heroic individual and the world consisted of a dialectical tension between irony and romance. The ironic interpretation, the view that the world is an antagonistic force out to suppress individual vitality, drove these intellectuals to adopt the Freudian conception of heroism as a revolt against social oppression. The Lost Generation rebelled against these pernicious forces which they believed existed in the forms of militarism, patriotism, progressivism, and absolutism. The

  • Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents
    Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents A Mini-Guide by John Kremer Copyright © 2011 by John Kremer All rights reserved. Open Horizons P. O. Box 2887 Taos NM 87571 575-751-3398 Fax: 575-751-3100 Email: [email protected] Web: http://www.bookmarket.com Introduction Below are the names and contact information for more than 1,450+ literary agents who sell rights for books. For additional lists, see the end of this report. The agents highlighted with a bigger indent are known to work with self-publishers or publishers in helping them to sell subsidiary, film, foreign, and reprint rights for books. All 325+ foreign literary agents (highlighted in bold green) listed here are known to work with one or more independent publishers or authors in selling foreign rights. Some of the major literary agencies are highlighted in bold red. To locate the 260 agents that deal with first-time novelists, look for the agents highlighted with bigger type. You can also locate them by searching for: “first novel” by using the search function in your web browser or word processing program. Unknown author Jennifer Weiner was turned down by 23 agents before finding one who thought a novel about a plus-size heroine would sell. Her book, Good in Bed, became a bestseller. The lesson? Don't take 23 agents word for it. Find the 24th that believes in you and your book. When querying agents, be selective. Don't send to everyone. Send to those that really look like they might be interested in what you have to offer.
