Louis Shores and Library History
Get PDFTogether with Wayne Shirley, Louis Shores began the American Library History Round Table in 1947. With the addition of N. Orwin Rush and John David Marshall, they dominated its proceedings for the first two decades. When Shores and Shirley turned over the control of the Round Table to Shore's appointed successor, Michael H. Harris, and his democratically elected successors in 1972, the four founders left an organization that, though small, was popular and had focused the agenda of library history
Šutnja i samoizražavanje u romanu Charlotte Brontë Shirley: Primjena teorije govornih činova Johna Searlea
Get PDFDespite the “comedic” happy ending of Brontë’s Shirley (1849), its heroine’s taciturn incommunicativeness towards the end of the novel in contrast to her lively former derring-do, has naturally given rise to various speculations about the nature of her transformation. The fact that many of the final exchanges between her and Louis Moore are reported with a temporary shift of point of view in Louis’s personal journal, with an obvious artistic distance between the narrator’s voice and his, merely serves to cast darker shadows over the veracity of his conclusions. The present application of Searle’s speech acts theory to some dialogue samples from Shirley, focuses on the differences of communicational styles in its heroine at three stages of the narrative and concludes that feeling the weight of the “new world” she has entered after her betrothal, Shirley finds that there is a consequent need for her to employ more expressive speech acts to elucidate, fewer assertives for greater self-effacement, and more frequent hedges to give a softer edge to her directives. Shirley’s linguistic technique now relies for its success on her silence and tolerant manner rather than persuasive arguments, and her speech mannerisms might in fact be presumed a “performance.” She thus shifts her style of expression intentionally, and in such a fashion as to empower Louis further and hand the conversational reins over to him.Unatoč sretnom završetku romana Charlotte Brontë Shirley (1849.), vidna suzdržanost i nekomunikativnost junakinje pri kraju romana, suprotna njezinoj ranijoj naglašenoj smjelosti, potaknula je razna nagađanja o prirodi njezine transformacije. Činjenica da su mnogi od posljednjih razgovora između nje i Louisa Moorea priopćeni kroz privremeni pomak narativne perspektive u Louisov osobni dnevnik, s očitom umjetničkom distancom između glasa pripovjedača i Louisova glasa, baca još veću sumnju u vjerodostojnost Louisovih zaključaka. Primjenjujući Searleove teorije govornih činova na nekoliko uzoraka dijaloga iz romana Shirley, ovaj se rad usredotočuje na razlike u komunikacijskim stilovima junakinje u tri faze fabule te ustanovljuje da kroz osjećaj tereta „novog svijeta“, u koji je ušla nakon zaruka, Shirley uviđa nužnost upotrebe izražajnijih govornih činova da bi bila shvaćena, neizricanja vlastitih stavova da bi se što manje isticala te češće uporabe oznaka ograđivanja da bi ublažila oštrinu svojih naredbi. Uspjeh junakinjine lingvističke tehnike sada proizlazi iz njezine nečujnosti i tolerantnog stava, a ne uvjerljive argumentacije, a njezini bi se govorni manirizmi zapravo mogli smatrati „predstavom“. Ona, dakle, namjerno mijenja svoj stil izražavanja, i to na takav način da dodatno osnažuje Louisa, omogućivši mu da preuzme glavnu riječ
The American Library History Round Table: The First Quarter Century
Get PDFA shorter version of this paper was delivered at the 50" anniversary meeting of the Library History Round Table (LHRT) in Washington, D. C. on June, 7, 1998, and subsequently published with other papers of that meeting in Libraries and Culture under the title, "Louis Shores and Library History: At the time the shorter version was written, the only material on the early years of the LHRT to be found was in the papers of Louis Shores housed in a basement storage room of the Louis Shores Building on the campus of Florida State University (FSU) in Tallahassee. This material consisted of one folder containing drafts of the paper that Shores delivered at the 1972 meeting of the round table commemorating its 25 anniversary and some correspondence about the meeting. This folder was supplemented with some correspondence among the early principals of the round table (Shores, Wayne Shirley, John David Marshall, and N. Orwin Rush) scattered throughout Shores' papers
