Abstract:

<p> There are over 650 million acres of federal public lands in the United States that allow access to nature. Public lands are utilized for a variety of different activities, ranging from preservation to resource extraction. Regardless of proximity, public lands belong to everyone in the United Sates. From January to August 2016, I opportunistically and purposively collected sixteen interviews in Arizona, a state with 38.5% federal public lands, and sixteen in Texas (1.5% federal public lands), to document attitudes, opinions, and ideas about public lands in the United States.

Abstract:

This thesis brings together the contiguous but distinct fields of oral history and narrative research focusing on interviews conducted for three research projects: the National Life Stories collection at The British Library Sound Archive, VIVA (Voices in the Visual Arts) at Camberwell College of Arts and for the Victoria and Albert Museum. The thesis draws principally on the work of Paul Ricoeur in order to examine the production and interpretation of oral life histories, demonstrating that as well as oral history they are identity narratives.

This practice-led PhD project consists of two parts. The first is an exegesis documenting how a fiction writer can enter a dialogue with the oral history project in Australia. I identify two philosophical mandates of the oral history project in Australia that have shaped my creative practice: an emphasis on the analysis of the interviewee’s subjective experience as a means of understanding the past, and the desire to engage a wide audience in order to promote empathy towards the subject. The discussion around fiction in the oral history project is in its infancy. In order to deepen the debate,

This thesis is in two parts. The first and major part consists of a historical novel followed, in part two, by an essay. The title of this thesis, “Navigating the Wreck”, refers metaphorically to the Fall of Singapore in 1942, the ensuing human tragedy unleashed on the people of Singapore and Malaya, and the literary and historical processes of exploring, interpreting and depicting the past. The Japanese occupation of Singapore has, to date, been described mostly by Western historians and former prisoners of war who have forged a predominant patriarchal narrative.

本研究的主題包含了兩組重要的詞語：「重現」和「鄉土」。前者是一個歷史教師的教學行動，而後者則為本研究的重要概念。在過去十三年的教學經驗中，我發現香港歷史課程千篇一律是「小漁村到大都市」的經濟發展論述，戰後南移新界的農村社群一直消失在歷史課程之中，縱使新界農村是香港的重要構成部份，有其自身的發展模式。於是，「重現」作為一種教學行動，是要填補農村社群的歷史故事。本研究的另一組重要詞語是「鄉土」。本研究要重現的「鄉土」，並不單指農村，而是指一個與居住者有親密關係、並充滿意義的地方（place）。「鄉土」是中國文化之中人與土地、並土地上其他社群親密關係的代名詞。要有這種親密的關係，牽涉兩個重要概念：鄉土意識和鄉土感情。鄉土意識指人識覺到自身與生活地和周遭社群彼此依存，甚至將生活地和在其上生活的人視為命運的共同體。由於人對生活地與周遭的社群有充份的認知，並識覺到自身、土地與社群有密切的關係，對生活地產生了主觀的情感投射，關懷生活地的地景和生態、社群生活、文化傳統，這種對地方的愛，便是鄉土感情。<br>本研究的教學行動集中在粉嶺馬屎埔村，在一段尋找本地史教學的嘗試之中，我在馬屎埔農村中感受到和城市不一樣的社群關係，那種異地為鄉、落地生根的情感充滿在馬屎埔村民的生命故事中，那些回憶喚起我曾經與生活地有過的親密感。身為歷史教師，我也希望學生能在村民的生命故事中反思鄉土價值，並思考「發展主義」導致的

Through the creation of a graphic novel based on a Romanian Holocaust survivor’s testimony, this study attempts to clarify the role of artistic creation in meaning-making during Holocaust and genocide education.

In order to understand this process, I worked with the testimony of Zoly Zamir, who escaped Bucharest following the Iron Guard Rebellion of 1941. The creation of the graphic novel took me

Abstract:

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>The narrative of the Fall Creek Parkway YMCA is central to the record of the historically black community northwest of downtown Indianapolis, which was established in the early 1900s, as well as reflective of the urban revitalization projects and demographic fluxes that changed this community beginning in the 1960s. This is because the conflict between administrators of the Fall Creek YMCA branch and Greater Indianapolis YMCA or Metropolitan YMCA over the viability of the branch at 10th Street and Indiana Avenue was a microcosm of th

Abstract:

In hierdie navorsing word die toelating van vrouepredikante in die Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk vanuit ’n kerkhistoriese en prakties-teologiese hoek bestudeer. Die navorsingswaardes wat in die sosiaal-konstruksionisme geld, naamlik dat sodanige navorsing ’n deelnemende en verhalende proses is, dat die invloed van diskoerse bestudeer word en dat die belangrikheid van taal in ag geneem word, is in die navorsing verreken. Vanuit ’n post-fundamentele teologiese posisionering is van ’n paar van die bewegings in ’n postfundamentele prakties-teologiese metodologie gebruik gemaak om na die belewing

Abstract:

This project seeks to determine, to what extent the culture of early Israel (1250-1000 BC) is similar to African cultures, more specifically, to that of the Lemba. However, a comparison between the cultures of early Israel and those of certain African tribes is not the primary objective in this case. This project is neither an anthropological study nor does it intend to mainly focus on the Lemba as such -though this may appear to be the case. This endeavour primarily fits into the ambit of Old Testament Studies. The investigation into the Lemba is meant to be subsidiary to th

Abstract:

Punk rock provided not only a watershed of creativity, innovation and a do-it-yourself spirit to a culture saturated in the mainstream, it physically brought like-minded people together in a community, or rather extended family, which in today’s hyper-d.i.y. culture, is progressively declining. As early as the 1940s, theorists such as Adorno and Horkheimer warned us about alienation in a society increasingly dependent on technology. By looking to punk, and other resilient and robust counter-cultures, perhaps we can find solutions to the pitfalls of the ‘culture industry’ (Adorno, Horkheimer, 1
