  • The Gendered Feast: Experiencing a Georgian Supra Laura Joy Linderman
    The Gendered Feast: Experiencing a Georgian Supra Laura Joy Linderman Abstract: The supra is a traditionalized feast in post-Soviet Georgia characterized by abundant food and ritualized drinking. It is extremely common in social life, especially in rural Georgia. Secular rituals, social occasions, national and religious holidays and life cycle transitions are accompanied by the ubiquitous supra. The supra has been examined by anthropologists as a site for macro level analyses that put forward structural or cultural theories for the underlying meaning of this ritual-for-all-occasions. Women’s experiences of and roles in the supra have often been overlooked or misrepresented in these studies. In this thesis I investigate women’s varied roles at a supra and problematize the idea that the supra demonstrates a model of society, with a paragon of masculinity at the center. I question the static image of an idealized supra that is only capable of reproducing a particular cultural model and argue that the supra is flexibly employed with a great deal of social life being oriented around preparing and participating in supras. Women’s experiences of the supra (like men’s) is different depending on the type of supra, the other participants involved, the age of the woman, her class and her particular geographical location. Keywords: post-Soviet, Georgia (Republic), cultural anthropology, feast, banquet, ritual, gender Introduction The supra was the worst and best experience I had in Georgia. Georgians have supras about 3 times a week to celebrate different things, whether it be a wedding, holiday, etc. In this case, the supra was for us.

Young Thomas Andrews Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. ii Campbell-Hale, Leigh (Ph.D, History) Remembering Ludlow but Forgetting the Columbine: The 1927-1928 Colorado Coal Strike Dissertation directed by Associate Professor Phoebe S.K. Young This dissertation examines the causes, context, and legacies of the 1927-1928 Colorado coal strike in relationship to the history of labor organizing and coalmining in both Colorado and the United States. While historians have written prolifically about the Ludlow Massacre, which took place during the 1913- 1914 Colorado coal strike led by the United Mine Workers of America, there has been a curious lack of attention to the Columbine Massacre that occurred not far away within the 1927-1928 Colorado coal strike, led by the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW).

  • PPP’S Latest Poll of North Carolina Voters Shows Current Attorney General Roy Cooper Leading Current Governor Pat Mccrory 43/41
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 9, 2015 INTERVIEWS: Tom Jensen 919-744-6312 IF YOU HAVE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL [email protected], OR CONSULT THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF THE PRESS RELEASE NC Governor’s Race Continues To Be A Toss Up Raleigh, N.C. – PPP’s latest poll of North Carolina voters shows current Attorney General Roy Cooper leading current Governor Pat McCrory 43/41. This is nearly identical to Cooper’s lead of 44/41 over McCrory in a June 3rd poll. Cooper is viewed much more favorably at 36/20 than McCrory of whose job performance voters disapprove of 33/48. Women support Cooper more widely than McCrory at 46/36, while men support McCrory more at 47/39. “Pat McCrory’s approval rating this month is the lowest we’ve found for him since he took office,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. “His dealings during this legislative session have antagonized some conservative voters without winning him any new friends across party lines. The big question though is whether this increased unhappiness with him will persist or fade once the legislature has gone home.” Incumbent Republican United States Senator Richard Burr maintains a sizeable lead against all potential Democratic challengers. Burr leads Dan Blue 45/35, Grier Martin 47/33, Mike McIntyre 44/35, Brad Miller 46/36, Heath Shuler 44/36, and Beth Wood 45/34. Blue and Wood are viewed more favorably than unfavorably at 18/16 and 16/11 respectively. Miller is viewed as favorably as he is unfavorably at 14/14.

  • Ii WOODY GUTHRIE
    ii WOODY GUTHRIE THIS COLLECTION PRESENTS FOR THE FIRST TIME the full range of material Woody Guthrie recorded for the United States government, both in song and the spoken word. This publication brings together two significant bodies of work – the songs and stories he recorded for the Library of Congress, and the material he created when hired to write songs for the Bonneville Power Administration. There have been records released in the past of the Library of Congress recordings, but this collection is the first time that the complete and unedited Library of Congress sessions have been released. The songs from those recording dates have been available in the past – notably from Elektra and from Rounder – but we offer here the full body of work, including the hours of Woody Guthrie talking and telling his story. TO THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS AND BPA RECORDINGS, we have also added material which Woody recorded for governmental or quasi-governmental efforts – some songs and two 15-minute radio dramas for the Office of War Information during the Second World War and another drama offered to public health agencies to fight the spread of venereal disease.
