  • 4. Reeher, Jennifer “The Despair of the Physician”: Centering Patient Narrative through the Writings of Charlotte Perkins Gilman

    Master of Arts (MA), Ohio University, 2018, English (Arts and Sciences)

    Patient narrative is often an undervalued or dismissed genre of writing in the field of literary criticism, largely because the hermeneutics of suspicion leads critics to see these texts as “misery memoirs,” as Ann Jurecic suggests. In this thesis, I argue for a new approach to reading and to criticism that moves away from the hermeneutics of suspicion and instead seeks to find conversations between patient narratives, case narratives, and popular or dominant medical and scientific texts. This shift would have readers focusing not on the ways in which an author might manipulate a story but instead on what the reader might learn from intently examining the resulting conversations. In doing so, I do not argue for a switch in the hierarchy—from doctor-patient to patient-doctor—but instead argue that both patient and case narratives have value; without both texts, we cannot have a full picture of what it is like to live with illness. Making my argument through historical examination, I prove that by examining Charlotte Perkins Gilman's patient narratives—those found in her letters, her diaries, and her autobiography as well as in “The Yellow Wallpaper”—alongside medical and scientific texts from her time, we can not only deepen and nuance current interpretations of these texts but we can also uncover motivations that may not be immediately apparent. While “The Yellow Wallpaper,” for example, has been considered as a critique of patriarchal medicine, a horror story, and a liberation text—among others—it has never been explicitly examined as a patient narrative. This focus allows us to delve deeper into the conversation created between “The Yellow Wallpaper” and Gilman's nonfiction narratives; I focus particularly on how we can see the eugenic arguments within “The Yellow Wallpaper” and how these arguments are connected to Gilman's anxieties about marriage, motherhood, and her usefulness in society. While ignoring patient narratives makes literary critics and histor (open full item for complete abstract)

  • 17. Buehner, R “I WARN YOU MING, STAY AWAY FROM MY FRIENDS!”: THE LANGUAGE OF SUPERHERO MYTHOLOGY IN FLASH GORDON

    Master of Applied Communication Theory and Methodology, Cleveland State University, 2016, College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences

    The Flash Gordon (Stephani, 1936) serial is a profoundly important, indeed seminal superhero film that has not been granted the critical attention that it deserves within modern film scholarship. Its position at the beginning of the genre of the modern screen superhero is examined through its evident thematically mythic implications and its culturally centered historical aspects. The serial Flash Gordon is treated and analyzed as a self-standing text that provides clues to the ontological and genealogical foundation and conventions of the screen superhero that is dominant in the media landscape today. This analysis is conducted through the Freudian – Jungian - Levi-Straussian – Barthes – Campbellian vain, which searches for signs in the text to amass evidence of acculturation. It is argued through this extended analysis that Flash Gordon articulated the richly nuanced language of what it means to be a superhero, and further provides us with cues regarding the modern superhero placement within the 21st century. The textual analysis of Flash Gordon and its findings can then be used as a research template to systematically mark superheroism in American film history.

  • 19. Farley, Elizabeth The development of Marian doctrine as reflected in the commentaries on the wedding at Cana (John 2:1-5) by the Latin fathers and pastoral theologians of the Church from the fourth to the seventeenth century

    Doctorate in Sacred Theology (S.T.D.), University of Dayton, 2013, International Marian Research Institute

    This 335 page dissertation presents an original work organizing the Latin theologians' principal interpretations of the Blessed Virgin Mary's presence and actions at the wedding feast, which reveals their perception of the significance and enduring meaning of her role there and her relationship with her Divine Son and his Church. Chapter one outlines the purpose, scope, structure, and method, including the fundamentals of Patristic exegesis, the Latin translations of the Bible, and St. John's Gospel. Chapter two provides an overview of the early Latin Church, focusing on the Theological and Christological insights that became conciliar proclamations and the foundation for Marian Doctrines. Five chapters follow with the writings of twenty-eight theologians who wrote about the Blessed Virgin Mary in thirty-seven different homilies, commentaries, doctrinal treatises, exhortations or other works. They were the leaders of the Church: saints, fathers, doctors and pastoral theologians including a pope, bishops, abbots, teachers, monks, friars, and Jesuits. The chapters are arranged according to periods: Patristic (4th and 5th centuries), Early Middle Ages (6th to 11th centuries), Golden Age of Mary (12th century), Scholastic (13th century), and Late Middle Ages (14th to 17th centuries). Each chapter describes the context within which the theologians carried out their roles in promoting the faith by preaching, teaching, strengthening the Church, and combating heresies. Included is a section on the development of Marian Doctrine according to councils, papal documents, or the influence of religious orders and Scholasticism. The theologians are introduced by biographical sketches of their education, religious order, ecclesial position, and literary contribution to the Church. Their writings are quoted in Latin and English (including translations of Latin works never before found in English); biblical exegesis is analyzed, and commentaries are categorized into themes at (open full item for complete abstract)

  • 20. Noga, John Making It Personal Programming Untitled (The New Plan) A Billboard Artwork by the Artist Felix Gonzalez-Torres

    Master of Arts, University of Akron, 2014, Theatre Arts-Arts Administration

    In the spring of 2007, I approached Professor Durand Pope, then Director of the Arts Administration Program at The University of Akron, about the possibility of curating an exhibition of contemporary art, artists, and ideas as a project thesis towards the fulfillment of the degree for a Masters of Arts in Arts Administration at The University of Akron. Professor Pope agreed to the project, with the contingency that a formal research document would detail some aspect of the exhibition. The proposed exhibition was a collaborative effort between myself and my mentor, colleague, and friend, Dr. Kevin Concannon. Dr. Concannon, at this time, was a tenured associate professor of Art History in the Myers School of Art, at The University of Akron. The exhibition, titled AGENCY: Art and Advertising, was the result of almost three decades of research by Concannon, as well as my own, and was presented at the John J. McDonough Museum of Art, a Center for Contemporary Ideas, Art, Education, and Community, located on the campus of Youngstown State University, in Youngtown, Ohio. AGENCY: Art and Advertising was on view in the galleries at the McDonough Museum between 19 September and 8 November 2008. Sited at six locations within the communities adjacent to the McDonough Museum was the artwork Untitled (The New Plan), an outdoor billboard installation by the artist Felix Gonzalez-Torres. This paper acts as an addendum to the project thesis that chronicles the inspiration behind and thought process around the choice of this work and its subsequent installation and placement as a featured component of the exhibition AGENCY: Art and Advertising
