The Freedom to Choose: The Aesthetics of Choice in Short Stories by Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, Amiri Baraka, and Toni Cade Bambara
Rambsy, Kenton
Graham, Maryemma
Black Arts' writer Amiri Baraka observes in his essay "Northern Iowa: Short Story and Poetry," that "For black people, freedom is our aesthetic and our ideology." The focus on liberation has artistic and political resonance for African Americans. Freedom--as communal aesthetic and ideology--provides a useful starting point for better understanding major themes in black writing. A closer look at short stories, which have typically received less critical attention than novels in the study of African American literature, can yield valuable information about the diverse ways in which writers present varying degrees of what I am calling "freedom aesthetics" in their works. Overall, my project will examine the context of choice in selected African American short stories. To what ends do the works by Hurston, Wright, Bambara, and Baraka emphasize the "choices" African Americans make in the face of social barriers? Addressing this question will help to better explain how characters, within specific short stories, make specific decisions to gain higher degrees of social agency and what authorial judgments black writers use to create varied conceptions of freedom for diverse sets of black characters. The short stories selected in this study reflect struggles against constraints that are racially, socially, sexually, economically or politically motivated. These choices, I argue, help explain why those works have remained so well known and most frequently reprinted in anthologies that privilege freedom as a unifying theme.

The Child-Soldier Deject: Abjection, Subjectivity, and Systemic Marginalization in Uzodinma Iweala’s Beasts of No Nation and Ahmadou Kourouma’s Allah Is Not Obliged
Kelly, Meaghan A.
Fowler, Doreen
International Human Rights is a multi-layered ideological system at the intersection of law, cultural narrative, social norms, collective ethics, and personal morality. Its lofty ideals are in direct challenge to the everyday forces of destruction and chaos that threaten order, which Julia Kristeva, in The Powers of Horror, claims is the substance of the abject. People’s fascination and perturbation with the abject are embodied in our cultural obsessions: one being the popularity of literatures depicting violent atrocities happening in faraway places—specifically, child-soldier narratives. The argument presented in this thesis is premised by the observation that global literatures tend to pander to the comforts of a Western readership, keeping abject content bracketed out of the narrative with only suggestions of the real violence taking place in conflict-ridden states. The thesis argues that two texts, Iweala’s Beasts of No Nation and Kourouma’s Allah is Not Obliged, have challenged such trends by presenting the abject to readers through their narrators. In so doing, they begin to close the comfortable gap between reader and subject, as the reader’s only point of access to the literature is filtered through a narrator who embodies abjection himself. The introduction provides a framework for understanding human rights literatures through the lens of Kristeva’s theory of abjection, and the chapters that follow are in-depth character studies of the two texts’ narrators and their linguistic habits. The chapters illustrate how and to what ends the authors deviate from convention in order to foster productive identification between reader and subject.

Solving the ‘Mystery’ of Blackness through African American Detective Fiction: Pauline Hopkins’ and Rudolph Fisher’s Intervention in a White Tradition
Dennis, Megan
Fowler, Doreen
This project investigates two early works of African American detective fiction, Pauline Hopkins’ Hagar’s Daughter and Rudolph Fisher’s The Conjure-Man Dies, and the ways in which these writers intervene in a white-dominated tradition to expose constructions of race. As these writers work from and modify models of detective fiction, to use Henry Louis Gates, Jr.’s term, they “signify” upon detective tropes to establish African American subjectivity and promote racial equality. Chapter 1 examines Fisher’s appropriation and disruption of the Holmesian tradition, particularly through his use of multiple detectives (5), a liminal character in N’gana Frimbo, masking, and doubling to question racial categorization and Western systems of knowledge. Chapter 2 discusses Hopkins’ text as a place of resistance for African American women, as well as its deviation from a mystery tradition that is strikingly similar to Twain’s Pudd’nhead Wilson. Hopkins employs doubling, “passing” characters, and a complex narrative to illuminate constructions of both race and gender. This project demonstrates Hopkins’ and Fisher’s texts ultimately challenge Western pre-conceptions of African Americans that historically relegate them to positions of inferiority, exposing systems of injustice, while simultaneously creating space for African American subjectivity.

Exploring ‘Zelmaneship’: Developing Queer Inwardness from Sidney to Stage
Warner, Mikaela
Lamb, Jonathan P.
Zelmane the Amazon, a central character in Philip Sidney’s epic romance The Countess of Pembroke’s Arcadia (1590), has often been studied for her transgressive gender and sexuality. Zelmane’s first words in the New Arcadia direct readers to look within, “Transform’d in show, but more transform’d in mind” (Sidney 131). I argue that this substantial transformation is what Katherine Eisaman Maus calls “inwardness,” a word drawn from Sidney’s “In Defense of Poesy” in Inwardness and Theatre in the English Renaissance (1995). In “In Defense of Posey,” he writes how characters can exhibit both an “inward self, and ... [an] outward government” (50). Zelmane, conceptualized only as a disguise, would be the outward show of Pyrocles; Sidney, however, writes the Amazon with an inward self and individuates her from the Prince. Sidney writes Zelmane with independent pronouns, differentiated thoughts, and the ability to resist transforming back into Pyrocles. Because Zelmane’s demonstrated inwardness both separates her from Pyrocles and represents a shift across genders, Zelmane’s inwardness is queer. Dramatic interpretations of Sidney’s Arcadia, however, do not exhibit this same inwardness. John Day’s Isle of Gulls (1606) and James Shirley’s A Pastoral Called the Arcadia (1640) reduce Zelmane’s inwardness and portray her only as a cross-dressed disguise. Sidney’s Zelmane, as a distinct central character to a widely popular early modern text, reveals a possibility for queer inwardness unexamined by recent scholarship.

Walking and the Reinvention of Space
Topinka, Robert
Farmer, Frank
Through the figure of the walker, this thesis considers the relationship between rhetoric and space, where rhetoric is understood as embodied, performative action and space is considered both as a material artifact and an ideological production. While it is a basic tenet of rhetoric that it always occurs in a given location, only recently have scholars of rhetoric begun to privilege space both as a theoretical lens and as part of everyday rhetorical practice. By positioning the walker as an embodied rhetorical agent in two spaces typical of everyday life in capitalist societies--suburban Iowa Street in Lawrence, Kansas, and a nature park built upon an inoperative coal mine in Newcastle England--this thesis attends to space as it both constrains and enables agency in different spatial milieus.

Language in the U.S. and the Law: A Corpus Analysis of the Language of Language Policy
Carrillo, Peter William
Grund, Peter
The aim of this thesis is to study the textual positioning and portrayal of English and other languages in U.S. language policy and to see what implications that positioning and portrayal has for understanding possible impacts and interpretations of U.S. language policies. In order to do this, I use corpus linguistic techniques to study the ways that the terms English and other languages collocate with other words in the way that the policies themselves are written. I further this analysis with a reading of the policies that looks for themes across multiple texts. This kind of textual positioning is analyzed in detail to show how the portrayals of English and other languages might differ and what that could mean for our understanding of the implications, intentions, or possible interpretations of the policies.

Whirlybirds and Ordinary Times: Reflections on Faith and the Changing of Seasons
Savage, Katie Suzanne
Atkins, G. Douglas
The following is a work of creative nonfiction, a collection of personal essays organized around the liturgical Christian church seasons. The form is one that wanders, that claims no particularly special knowledge or authority--its grounding is in personal experience, and it seeks to make sense of things by asking questions and by telling stories. This appeals to me precisely because, as Flannery O'Connor has noted, if a writer of faith "hopes to reveal mysteries, he will have to do it by describing truthfully what he sees from where he is."

From Conflict to Concord: Copyeditors, Composition, and Technology
Chrisman Jacques, Kelly
Devitt, Amy
The traditional rhetorical model suggests that the composition process progresses from writer, to text, to audience, but copyeditors must be added to the equation as writers create texts for the purpose of publication. To better understand the copyeditor's role in the publication process and within authors' writing and revision processes, this study examined how thirty copyeditors describe their roles; how they feel about their interactions with authors; and how they feel about the role of technology in the writing process and how they have adapted to technology. Overall, copyeditors were confident in their ability to copyedit using technology. In revising/editing, copyeditors are responsible for grammar, punctuation, and style; additionally, however, this study posits that they are also responsible for engaging in a collaborative revision process with the author. They must be recognized as both readers and writers and thus have the ability to affect a writer's revision and writing processes.

Up from the Ground: Blogging the Farm and Farming the Blog
Humphrey, Jen L.
Harrington, Joseph
Up from the Ground: Blogging the Farm and Farming the Blog was written in the form of blog posts from May 2009 until March 2010. The blog chronicled successes and failures in the transition from city life to organic agriculture, as well as explored the nature of the blog form. The thesis reads in reverse chronological order, as a blog would. It was and remains an experiment in form, voice and technique.

Barely Hidden Magic: Acadiana Stories
Lopez, Allison Rose
Lorenz, Thomas D.
The revelations that explain everything are often details that are missed. This is the theme that emerged during the compiling of this thesis. I wish I could claim it was by intention, but it is merely the reflection of my particular way of seeing the world. I had to spend years writing and working on it, only to arrive here, where I discover this thing about myself that should have been obvious all along. Oh, the irony. In "Fly Away, `Tite Fille," the narrator observes the world from which he came and sees that his father has already endured a spiritual death, which everyone else is too distracted to recognize. In "Passages at the End of a Crescent City Summer," he discovers that the ambitions that led him toward success have also led him away from the vivacious, less controllable kind of Louisiana life that would make him happy, and when he realizes this, he opens himself up to a relationship that is probably a bad idea. In "A Journey to the Interior," the father figure of the first two stories encounters death and transforms himself, but he cannot quite make the journey back to his old life to reap the full benefits. In "A Seldom-Heard Voice from Petit Coteau," the nameless narrator observes the true motivation and influence of her boyfriend's mother, who rejects her in ways that are socially deniable, and the narrator both passes judgment and wishes for a little kindness and acceptance. In "Blood Currents on the Lower Teche," a woman at the center of a tragedy realizes too late that she has completely misunderstood the effects of her actions. In "Lache Pas La Patate," a woman's life has been oppressed and overshadowed by her husband's expansive presence, so, while few understand her, this fact allows her to break free. Finally, in "The Hurricane Squatter," a narrator who lives close to the coast stubbornly refuses to evacuate to higher ground when a hurricane is forecasted. In the process of standing his ground, he realizes that spending a lifetime of doing that has paid off in loneliness and appreciating the best parts of his life only when they are over and it is too late to savor them. I almost hated to summarize the stories in this way, because it feels like giving a secret away. As suggested in the epigram, the stories reveal the kinds of observations that are available to anyone who wishes to mindfully observe the world in which they live and the people who are in it, but for that reason, they are often never noticed at all. The seven stories herein all originate in the same world, Acadiana, which is the regional name of the 22 Cajun and Creole parishes of Southern Louisiana. Acadiana stretches from the Texas border to New Orleans, and it is a sister culture to the Crescent City rather than an extension of it. Most of the stories occur in or around New Iberia, along the famous Bayou Teche, in what is considered the heart of Cajun country. It was a mystical, magical place to grow up, though of course it seemed normal at the time. In writing these stories, I aimed to honor the culture without erasing the emotional realities. Someday, when this collection becomes a part of a book, people may not agree with or even like any portrayal that seems less than flattering to the outside world. But the facts of fiction and of gossip are the same: There are no memorable stories of perfect lives of the rich, beautiful, flawless and blessed. Nobody believes gossip like that. It's boring, and nobody remembers it. And what I hope to spend my writing life doing is making sure that the many facets of Acadiana are remembered.

Anxious Origins: Zora Neale Hurston and the Global South, 1927-1942
Badley, Dana Nelson, III
Fowler, Doreen A
Zora Neale Hurston's autoethnographic trilogy of the Global South - Mules and Men (1935), Tell My Horse (1938), and Dust Tracks on a Road (1942) - charts a geocultural terrain that recovers transgressive histories otherwise erased from public historical discourse. The medium is the message: penned in dialect obscuring the subversive "inside meanin' of words," her folklore collections split the historical archive wide open by incorporating the lives and deaths of "unreal" bodies into a preexisting narrative of Southern subjugation. These politically subversive tales of agency and resistance enact a dynamic, malleable, intergenerational mode of oral history that suggests the unfinished work of mourning for that which is no longer there. Trained as an anthropologist at Columbia University yet distrustful of the profession's intentions, Hurston confronts her own ambivalence towards the ethnographic archive throughout her career dedicated to (re)tracing these anxious origins, prefigured as both genetically specific and racially mythologized, across a region beset by a politics of racialized loss. In fighting to make these "unreal" lives legible, her autoethnographic trilogy offers a model of the interplay between the affective state of melancholia and the literary imagination. Within this multifaceted portrait of the Global South, Hurston reconciles private memory with public history in order to underscore the social dynamics at work in determining the contours of acceptable loss.

Collected Works
Turner, Lance
Moriarty, Laura
The collection of work presented here illustrates the constant struggle individuals face in understanding the repercussions of their past, the weight of their decisions in the present moment, and the possibilities of the future. When taken as a whole, this collection represents a fractured, multi-perspective narrative; it is a reflection of life through the use of many lives. The pieces throughout this collection interact with many universal themes and ideas, whether it is the wants of childhood, the notions surrounding virginity, the loss of trust, the moment of death, the loss of memory, or even the pull of hunger, by locating the piece, the characters, and thus the reader, in an intimate moment of human experience. When looking at these works individually, one can see these characters caught in their own worlds, their own reflections of humanity. It is in these characters, whether man or woman, young or old, gay or straight, that I tried to represent the truthful nature of humanity and the human interactions that take place in the environments we live in. These characters inhabit country, rural, suburban, and city landscapes. Sometimes characters are bound to their relationships with others. Sometimes they are alone. Sometimes they do not know what they are doing. Sometimes their actions contradict their own thoughts. The characters are not always pretty, but they are real. In its entirety, this collection parallels our own human nature. This collection reflects the loss of what we thought or did not even know we had; it incorporates our darkness and our light, our fears and our hopes; it is a narrative representation of the experiences we take part in.

We would come to the edge
Moulton, Iris
Lorenz, Thomas D.
Abstract: This small collection centers on ideas of dislocation and place. With a sharp awareness of the Midwest, its gory history and oppressive weather, many of these pieces delve into these obsessions through a speaker who is both a guest struggling to come to terms with landscape, and a native accustomed to these things. We then experience a transition where the work turns away from the windows, looking at the politics of place when place is the living room, the dinner table. We leave the Midwest to enter Europe where the examination of war, beauty, and bloody landscape continues. Through references to iconic art, holocaust imagery, and the fumblings of a tourist, we witness the minutia of dislocation, the haunting confusion that comes with a strange place. We are then left with our final location: The American West. The final frontier in many senses of the phrase, this is amplified when viewed throught the eyes of a child. All of these works grapple with place--the smothering humidity of Kansas, the staggering Eastern Block, childhood, death. In addition to a sense of disorientation, this small collection aims to reveal what we reach for when we reach for familiarity.

These Are Your Eyes Now: Poems
Wheeler, Satarah B.
Kaminski, Megan
This collection of poems features two separate but related projects, "Telescope City" and "Paint Can Can-Can." "Telescope City" is a speculative project focusing on high-powered ground telescopes as a place to call home, and what a life so intertwined with the cosmos might reveal about our own solitude. Similarly, "Paint Can Can-Can" explores the relationship between humanity and natural spaces, including our perception of our place in the universe. Additionally, this latter collection began as a generative exercise using the names of interior paint colors as poem titles, which offers a critical lens for thinking about how marketing and artifice encroaches on and appropriates elements that are “organic” or “natural.” A statement of poetics that explores the theories and inspirations of this collection follows.

"Narratives of Technological Globalization and Outsourced Call Centers in India: Droids, Mimic Machines, Automatons, and Bad 'Borgs"
Lowe, Annie
Outka, Paul
Taking as a premise that contemporary communication and information technology-aided globalization is a world-making practice that relies on narratives to construct and transmit global imaginaries and relational identities, this project evaluates narrative discourses of Indian call centers serving clients and customers in the United States in order to analyze evolving hegemonic narratives of the "global" of late capitalism. In this project, I argue that constellations of local, national, and transnational hegemonies map outsourced Indian call centers into a position in capitalist geography at which vectors of the production of national, corporate, and racial identities converge in the technological production of power. Specifically, I look at assemblages of narratives corresponding to four tropes that metaphorize Indian tech workers as machines--the oriental droid, the mimic machine, the productive automaton, and the bad 'borg--how each metaphor is reinforced by labor processes in the call center, and how these are assimilated into new forms of subjugation to further extend and entrench participation in zero-sum economics across the globe.

Performance and Performativity in Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford and Ruth
Nurulhady, Eta Farmacelia
Elliott, Dorice W.
This thesis analyzes the aspects of performance and performativity in Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford and Ruth. Gaskell shows through her characters how gender and class intertwine, involving the notions of cultural, social, and economic capital. Although contested concepts, performance and performativity can be significant tools in analyzing how Victorian narratives such as Cranford and Ruth could subvert dominant assumptions about gender and gender roles. The first chapter discusses Elizabeth Gaskell, the concepts of performance and performativity, and Victorian doctrine of separate spheres. The second chapter analyzes how the Cranford ladies in Cranford perform stylized repetition of certain acts to maintain their identity. The third chapter shows performances in Ruth and how the heroine acquires her gender by accreting its behavior, strengthening the understanding of Ruth by using the notion of performativity. The fourth chapter consolidates the main points that performance and performativity help to show: how Cranford challenges the stereotype of a "redundant woman," and Ruth challenges the stereotype of a "fallen woman."

"Wundorlice hit hæleþ": Organization and Metatextual Markers in Old English Recipes
Brussow, Jennifer
Grund, Peter
This study seeks to examine the ways structural components and metatextual markers contribute to the organization of Old English medicinal texts. Through quantitative linguistic analysis of the Læceboc, Lacnunga, Herbarium, and Medicina de Quadrupedibus, the study shows that Old English medicinal recipes follow a defined structure: heading (consisting of a starting word and an ailment listing), ingredient list, preparation, administration, and efficacy statement. This structure bears marked similarities to the organizational strategies scholars have advanced for Middle English recipes. However, this analysis shows that Old English recipes do not possess any obligatory components. Instead, all components are optional, though some, such as administration, display less optionality than others, such as the ingredient list and the efficacy statement. The overall similarities in structure suggest a continuing textual tradition between Old English and Middle English recipes. In addition to component-based organization, these medicinal texts were found to contain metatextual markers, or words and phrases that appear to serve an organizational function within the texts yet fail to meet the definition of formal discourse markers. Though wiþ, genim and nim, and generic efficacy statements serve metatextual functions and demonstrate many of Brinton's features of discourse markers, none of these elements can be categorized as discourse markers.

Shared Recklessness
Goodman, Danya Laura
Lorenz, Thomas D.
A collection of fiction, nonfiction, and short shorts that together demonstrate my development as a writer. In these pieces, I explore themes of sexuality, religion, and death. I am interested in why people do what they do, especially actions that are considered taboo. One of my goals was to investigate socially abhorrent behaviors to find the truth and empathy hidden there. My characters embark on journeys, and take risks to ultimately forge connections to people and to life, despite the questions of loneliness and meaninglessness.

At the Center of Her Art: Ex/Isle, Trauma, and Story-Telling in Julia Alvarez's First Three Novels
Robbins, Emily Rebecca
Anatol, Giselle
Julia Alvarez's first three novels, which can be read as a story cycle, are highly autobiographical, and, if studied together, reveal how she progresses as an author. Drawing from theories concerning life writing, language, and madness, I read How the García Girls Lost Their Accents as a dual kunstlerroman, demonstrating the growth of both Alvarez's and Yolanda's agency. In her second novel, In the Time of the Butterflies, Alvarez wrestles with what "lies at the center of [her] art" -- the Dominican Republic and the trauma associated with living on and away from the island. Using cryptonomy and trauma theory, I investigate the effect of silence on both the Dominicans and Alvarez. Finally, in ¡Yo! Alvarez suggests that the responsible storyteller listens to those she represents. When considered together, these three novels reveal Alvarez's quest to articulate her development as a writer who can represent the voices of the collective.

The Effects of Informal Training on Graduate Teaching Assistants’ Response Beliefs
Moos, Andrew Thomas-James
Devitt, Amy J
As recent studies have shown (Ferris, 2014; Reid, Estrem, & Belcheir, 2012), formalized types of pedagogical instruction may be less effective on new instructors than previously thought. In new instructors continuing to form beliefs about responding to student writing through their first years of teaching and training, they may continue to rely heavily on knowledge gained from extracurricular sources and prior experiences in shaping their beliefs about feedback. This study aims to examine these informal influences on feedback beliefs on beginning first-year writing instructors. Specifically, this study uses both surveys and interviews with teachers in their first two years of teaching at a single university in the United States to uncover influences on these individuals that result from informal training. The purpose of this study is to then examine how personal experiences, values, or beliefs based in their own experiences as students and writers may affect the beliefs with which instructors respond to their students’ writing in the classroom. This study suggests that informal training is a valuable tool to new teachers in helping to both motivate them to respond and assist them in a more concrete manner than formal training, and it should be taken into account in teacher training.

Penelope Salvo and Impossible Red
Zaruba, Justin
Johnson, Kij
All Penelope Salvo wanted was a place to live. After her mother died, her only goal was to never be homeless. This eventually leads to a flower pot Houng, a man in Chinatown with a room to rent. Moving into his herbal shop opens the door for supernatural things to happen to her: she meets Lordes from a fairy tale world, Voodoo spirits, and a corporate field agent intent on killing her.

"Beasts," "Beings," and Everything Between: Environmental and Social Ethics in Harry Potter
Fettke, Sarah
Anatol, Giselle
This paper examines J.K. Rowling's fictional textbook, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, alongside the Harry Potter series, exploring how Rowling questions official academic discourse that defines boundaries between the human and nonhuman. By creating magical characters that straddle the line between "beast" and "being," as defined by fictional scholar Newt Scamander, Rowling blurs the boundary between human and animal and questions the treatment of the nonhuman as subhuman that results from such firm boundaries. At the same time, in other areas of her novels Rowling seems to reiterate the division of the human from the nonhuman, and seems to maintain a hierarchy of power that positions fully human characters over their nonhuman - and "part-human" - counterparts. The weakened boundary between beast and being complicates any discussion of the novels' social agenda, particularly regarding what many critics have perceived as Rowling's racial stereotyping of her part-human characters according to white, imperialist tropes. The result is an ambiguous code of environmental and social ethics that hinges on the question of what it means to be a being - human - as opposed to a beast - animal - and whose right it is to define these important legal and social categories.

"They Talked as Industriously as They Worked": Reforming the Family and its Labor in Louisa May Alcott's Work: A Story of Experience
Isaac, Jessica A.
Barnard, Philip
As my title suggests, this project examines Alcott's vision of the family in Work (1873). Her characters do indeed "talk as industriously as they work" as a means of creating the circumstances necessary for the achievement of sentimental ideals at the very moment when sentimentalism itself begins to lose cultural dominance. They achieve the goals of voluntary affective relationships and protection from the ills of wage labor not through a "change of heart," as Harriet Beecher Stowe's characters do, but through changing the circumstances in which they live their lives. Using the work of Habermas and Wallerstein to articulate those circumstances, this project explores the significance of Alcott's novel within the context of reform movements and labor history, ultimately concluding that the practicality of Alcott's vision undermines its political potential.

The Preoccupations of Mr. Lomax, Inventor of the "Inventor of Jazz"
Martin, Katy E.
Conrad, Kathryn
Since its publication in 1950, Alan Lomax's book Mr. Jelly Roll: The Fortunes of Jelly Roll Morton, New Orleans Creole and "Inventor of Jazz" has been a crucial source for jazz music scholars. Based on Lomax's 1926 interviews of Morton for the Library of Congress, the book presents a compelling and colorful portrait of the pioneering jazz pianist and the early days of New Orleans jazz. In 2005, Rounder Records released these recorded interviews, complete, for the first time, along with transcripts, notes, and other useful supplemental materials. By comparing this new information with Lomax's book, this paper examines the ways Lomax imposed his own agenda on Mr. Jelly Roll, departing significantly from Morton's own testimony. Motivated by his convictions about authenticity, jazz music, and the commercial recording industry, Lomax created a biased and sometimes inaccurate profile of Morton that has influenced public opinion and scholarship to this day.
