Place Name Restoration in Haudenosaunee Territory: Frameworks for Language and Landscape

In place name restoration, especially in indigenous territory, layers of place and language are actively complex; as place names survive, evolve, and resist forces of colonialist erasure, violence, and distortion, elements of place name restoration become critically obscured. By engaging with existing literatures and contextual knowledges, it is possible to understand place name restoration as a reparative act. This thesis explores place name restoration within the Haudenosaunee territory of upstate New York and the surrounding landscape; the thesis works to explore the terrain of place restoration in this territory, and to understand the positioning of researcher within this terrain. This work argues for the importance of holistic and reflexive place name restoration: to resist forces of settler colonialist suppression, and to [re]imagine place. This research proposes an innovative theoretical framework that clarifies elements of place name restoration and charts their possible relationships, for geolinguistic projects on large and continuing scales

Contemporary Literature from Singapore

Literature in Singapore is written in the country’s four official languages: Chinese, English, Malay, and Tamil. Since 1999, with the state’s implementation of the Renaissance City Plan to revitalize arts and culture in Singapore, there have been various initiatives to increase the visibility of contemporary Singaporean writing both within the country itself and on an international scale. Translation plays a key role in bridging the linguistic and literary divides wrought by the state’s mother tongue policies, with several works by Cultural Medallion winners in different languages translated into English, which remains at present the shared language in Singapore. Literary anthologies are also invaluable forms through which the concepts of a national literature and national identity are expressed and negotiated. Writings about gender and sexuality have also become more prominent in single-author collections or edited anthologies, with writers exploring various inventive and experimental narrative forms. A number of poets and writers are also established playwrights, and theater has historically been and continues to be an extremely vital form of creative expression and cultural production. Graphic novels, crime and noir fiction, and speculative and science fiction publications are also on the rise, with the awarding of the Singapore Literature Prize to Sonny Liew’s The Art of Charlie Chan Hock Chye signaling that these genres merit serious literary consideration

Building an application for the writing process

The idea that writing is a process and not a product is now generally accepted in writing education, but discussions of digital scholarly communication often neglect the idea, in theory and in practice. This thesis report introduces a Mac OS X software package to support the early stages of the writing process, called Brouillon. Brouillon’s features include: the concatenation of discrete note files into notebooks; notes appearing in multiple notebooks; note intake from mobile devices via Dropbox; and an open standard file format. The report also provides a model of the organization of products of the writing process, with a focus on Brouillon’s most unusual feature, multi-notebook notes. It discusses difficulties in implementation and identifies possibilities for future improvement
