Abstract:
This fiction collection attempts to convey the essence of Oregon's landscape, nature, and people. Many of these pieces reflect violent behavior, which is sometimes directed from one character to another, and sometimes directed toward nature. Sometimes this violence is mild, sometimes it is horrific. But the reasons for the violence and any connection it has to the landscape, nature, and people of Oregon is left to the reader to decide. The focus of this collection is not to teach lessons--it is to entertain.

Abstract:
Today many Middle Eastern states are experiencing political violence, either in the form of foreign occupation, civil war, revolution or coup d’état. This regional violence is not dissociated from international politics. In fact many foreign states are directly involved through influencing, financing or manipulating the situation, and have subsequently been the target of violent attacks themselves. Responding to this situation, a plethora of academic and artistic output concerning Middle Eastern terrorism has emerged from the West. These efforts, especially in English-language fiction, have be

Abstract:
The representation of female violence in Joyce Carol Oates's later fiction is an undertaking that involves three methods of reading Because It Is Bitter, Because It Is My Heart, Foxfire: Confessions of a Girl Gang, and Man Crazy. The first chapter is a Freudian interpretation of both the novels and the characters and how the female castration complex is the cause for female violence in all three works; the second chapter illustrates the effects of female violence from the perspective of race, gender, and body; and the third chapter discusses "real" and "fictionalized" violence as coping mechan
