Title: Would Lord Running Clam wear Wubfur slippers? The ethical imperative of empathy in the alternate ecologies of Philip K. Dick.
Creator: Aaronson, Russell S., Florida Atlantic University, Collins, Robert A., Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of English
Abstract/Description: Although critics have observed Philip K. Dick's references to empathy throughout his novels, short stories, and essays, no analysis has attempted to examine the role of empathy in his writings. In contrast to the element of ratiocination (or logical extrapolation) widely considered to be the hallmark of science fiction, Dick's fictions are held together by the value they primarily place not on reason, but on an empathic understanding of our actions and their effects upon the lives of other...
Show moreAlthough critics have observed Philip K. Dick's references to empathy throughout his novels, short stories, and essays, no analysis has attempted to examine the role of empathy in his writings. In contrast to the element of ratiocination (or logical extrapolation) widely considered to be the hallmark of science fiction, Dick's fictions are held together by the value they primarily place not on reason, but on an empathic understanding of our actions and their effects upon the lives of other entities. Using two early short stories ("Beyond Lies the Wub" and "Roog"), two non-Earth ecologies (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep and Dr. Bloodmoney). I will demonstrate that Dick's works are united by an ethical imperative to understand the thoughts and emotions of others, human and nonhuman alike.

Title: Women’s Representation in Contemporary Hollywood Film Culture.
Creator: Trujillo, Michelle, Sim, Gerald, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters
Abstract/Description: See Her is a found footage montage that identifies the issue of women’s representation in contemporary Hollywood film culture. It analyzes different ways that spectatorship develops through the division of the film into four sections of which three analyze film from the perspective of Laura Mulvey, Mary Ann Doane, and Linda Williams. These three sections also approach the representation of women as a sociological issue of oppression as discussed by sociologist Patricia Hill Collins. The last...
Show moreSee Her is a found footage montage that identifies the issue of women’s representation in contemporary Hollywood film culture. It analyzes different ways that spectatorship develops through the division of the film into four sections of which three analyze film from the perspective of Laura Mulvey, Mary Ann Doane, and Linda Williams. These three sections also approach the representation of women as a sociological issue of oppression as discussed by sociologist Patricia Hill Collins. The last section serves as a speculative vision of the future of female representation in Hollywood Film Culture. While this film is critical on the current state of representation, it presents hope for a more equal future.

Title: WILLIAM FAULKNER AND AVIATION: THE MAN AND THE MYTH.
Creator: BOSTWICK, WALTER INGERSOLL, Florida Atlantic University, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of English
Abstract/Description: In the years following World War I, William Faulkner implied to his family and acquaintances that he had been a pilot in the RAF. Some people even thought that he had flown combat missions in France and had been wounded. He maintained this fictitious persona throughout his life, and it was accepted by most scholars and biographers. Several of Faulkner's early works featured aviators as central characters, and he treated them as romanticized, tragic heroes as he did Confederate cavalry...
Show moreIn the years following World War I, William Faulkner implied to his family and acquaintances that he had been a pilot in the RAF. Some people even thought that he had flown combat missions in France and had been wounded. He maintained this fictitious persona throughout his life, and it was accepted by most scholars and biographers. Several of Faulkner's early works featured aviators as central characters, and he treated them as romanticized, tragic heroes as he did Confederate cavalry officers. Pylon, which was written after he had actually started flying, reflects an awareness of the psychology of flying not seen in his earlier works. Faulkner's "wounded pilot" persona was only one facet of his imaginative and creative personality, but knowledge of this persona is necessary to the understanding of the man and thus his art.

Title: William A. Dunning revisited: The mind or malice of Reconstruction?.
Creator: Barsalou, Kathleen P., Florida Atlantic University, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of History
Abstract/Description: Historian William A. Dunning was responsible for the first scholarly treatment of the Reconstruction era. The terms which his contemporaries used to describe him differ strikingly from those historians may choose today. Since the 1930s, American historiography has reflected the new emphasis on sociology and psychology with a radical shift in subject matter away from the traditional political focus. Surely, certain truths are known to the modern historian which were not known to those who...
Show moreHistorian William A. Dunning was responsible for the first scholarly treatment of the Reconstruction era. The terms which his contemporaries used to describe him differ strikingly from those historians may choose today. Since the 1930s, American historiography has reflected the new emphasis on sociology and psychology with a radical shift in subject matter away from the traditional political focus. Surely, certain truths are known to the modern historian which were not known to those who lived earlier. However, to discard the insights of one generation of historians is, perhaps, to ignore some of history's most important resources.

Title: Wilde beauty: A new look at an old crossroad in aesthetic history.
Creator: Barletta, Crystal Grace, Florida Atlantic University, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of English
Abstract/Description: I argue that beauty can be found in both the moral and immoral. The subjects of art, beauty, and morality in Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray are justly explained and beauty is revealed and restored to art when Dorian finally pierces his portrait. Art imitates life, and life must be portrayed in all its aspects of beauty and wretchedness. I also argue that the artist cannot be separated from his art, therefore making us judge both the person and the piece which should not be judged based on...

Title: Vision and revision: The perceptual modes of Henry James.
Creator: Allen, Kevin Ray, Florida Atlantic University, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters, Department of English
Abstract/Description: For Henry James, artistic vision is essentially revision. It is a process of transformation: of literal experience to "felt life," of pictorial presentation to dramatic representation, of the past to the present. This process is a central element of James's fiction. The "meaning" of stories such as "The Real Thing" and "The Middle Years" and novels such as The Ambassadors depends on a growth of vision. Their protagonists must be able to overcome the limits of their imaginations. They must be...
Show moreFor Henry James, artistic vision is essentially revision. It is a process of transformation: of literal experience to "felt life," of pictorial presentation to dramatic representation, of the past to the present. This process is a central element of James's fiction. The "meaning" of stories such as "The Real Thing" and "The Middle Years" and novels such as The Ambassadors depends on a growth of vision. Their protagonists must be able to overcome the limits of their imaginations. They must be reflective, both intellectually and mimetically. In demanding a finer kind of artistic perception, James pointed the way for a younger generation of writers and critics. James's vision was broad enough to encompass classic critical ideals and artistic goals that would be achieved years after he struggled with them.
