  • English Renaissance Dream Theory and Its Use in Shakespeare
    THE RICE INSTITUTE ENGLISH RENAISSANCE DREAM THEORY MID ITS USE IN SHAKESPEARE By COMPTON REES, JUNIOR A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Houston, Texas April, 1958 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction .............. 1-3 Chapter I Psychological Background: Imagination and Sleep ............................... 4-27 Chapter II Internal Natural Dreams 28-62 Chapter III External Natural Dreams ................. 63-74 Chapter IV Supernatural Dreams ...................... 75-94 Chapter V Shakespeare’s Use of Dreams 95-111 Bibliography 112-115 INTRODUCTION This study deals specifically with dream theories that are recorded in English books published before 1616, the year of Shakespeare1s death, with a few notable exceptions such as Robert Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy (1621). Though this thesis does not pretend to include all available material on this subject during Shakespeare*s time, yet I have attempted to utilise all significant material found in the prose writings of selected doctors, theologians, translated Latin writers, recognised Shakespeare sources (Holinshed, Plutarch), and other prose writers of the time? in a few poets; and in representative dramatists. Though some sources were not originally written during the Elizabethan period, such as classical translations and early poetry, my criterion has been that, if the work was published in English and was thus currently available, it may be justifiably included in this study. Most of the source material is found in prose, since this A medium is more suited than are imaginative poetry anl drama y:/h to the expository discussions of dreams. The imaginative drama I speak of here includes Shakespeare, of course.

  • Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - January 16, 2017
    Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - January 16, 2017 Alexander Elementary We’ve talked a lot about empathy and compassion in classroom guidance lessons. We want Alexander to be a place where kindness and compassion are evident everywhere, every day. MLK was a voice of love and compassion and he believed that respect and love were actions that should be shown to others. On Tuesday, January 17, we held a Gathering of Peace and Kindness in Martin Luther King Jr’s Honor at 1:30 pm in the gym. We did a Kindness March to commemorate the Freedom March, as we did last year. We also recited the school pledge, which also aligns with Dr. King’s beliefs. Each grade level memorized a section of the pledge that was read aloud. We also used MLK’s birthday to kick off a month-long Kindness Challenge. Submitted by: Salina Hemann, MC.GF Representative Borlaug Elementary Learn about Martin Luther King, Jr. Prior to January 13th, classroom teachers shared grade appropriate literature and activities about the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. These books were selected by our teacher-librarian. On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, teachers shared with their students a created power point about the life of Dr. Martin Luther King., Jr. Service Learning Our School-Community connection was with the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital in conjunction with the Children’s Miracle Network through Borlaug’s Mini Dance Marathon on January 13th. In January, our Borlaug Bulletin, parent newsletter, the service project was announced with the different donation opportunities to benefit the U of I Children’s Oncology Unit – see attached flyer.

From The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore—with one of the oldest graduate programs in classics in the country to the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, VA, classicists and archaeologists are a proud part of the academic scene, and we take pleasure in inviting you during the SCS and AIA meetings to learn more about the life and heritage of our professions. In Maryland, the University of Maryland at College Park has strong programs and offers graduate degrees in classical languages, ancient history, and ancient philosophy. But classics also flourishes at smaller institutions such as McDaniel College in Westminster, MD, and the Naval Academy in Annapolis. Right in the District of Columbia itself you will find four universities with strong ties to the classics through their undergraduate programs: The Catholic University of America, which also offers a PhD, Howard University, Georgetown University, and The Georgetown Washington University.

  • Visual Silence: African American Voices in Washington, Dc's
    VISUAL SILENCE: AFRICAN AMERICAN VOICES IN WASHINGTON, DC’S COMMEMORATIVE FORMATIONS by MEGAN IRENE FITZMAURICE (Under the Direction of Belinda A. Stillion Southard) ABSTRACT This thesis puts forward a rhetorical investigation of the visual and racial politics at play in Washington, DC’s commemorative formations. Specifically, this thesis looks to the Capitol Rotunda, National Statuary Hall, and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in order to understand how three major forms of racism—institutional, symbolic, and postracial—shape and are shaped by these formations. A theory of visual silence helps to expose how and in what forms such racism works to simultaneously invoke and suppress the visual voice of African Americans in the nation’s most honored spaces. Visual silence reveals that while African Americans have played an integral role in shaping civic life and national identity in the United States, because we cannot visualize their voices in the same tangible ways in which white Americans are portrayed in the country’s commemorative spaces, their history, achievement, and significance are nearly silenced from the national narrative.
