KYOGEN AND SHAKESPEAREAN COMEDY : A COMPARISON

Kyogen and Shakespearean Comedy share similarities in their theatrical presentation and the environment in which the plays were presented. Early Shakespearean Comedies and Kyogen also share similarities in the depth of their themes, content and characterization. However, while Kyogen remained static in its style, Shakespeare\u27s comedies became deeper, more concerned with the human condition and characters were more fully developed

The Economic Resource Receipt of New Mothers

U.S. federal policies do not provide a universal social safety net of economic support for women during pregnancy or the immediate postpartum period but assume that employment and/or marriage will protect families from poverty. Yet even mothers with considerable human and marital capital may experience disruptions in employment, earnings, and family socioeconomic status postbirth. We use the National Survey of Families and Households to examine the economic resources that mothers with children ages 2 and younger receive postbirth, including employment, spouses, extended family and social network support, and public assistance. Results show that many new mothers receive resources postbirth. Marriage or postbirth employment does not protect new mothers and their families from poverty, but education, race, and the receipt of economic supports from social networks do

Promoting Financial Capability of Incarcerated Women for Community Reentry: A Call to Social Workers

Female incarceration rates are increasing at unprecedented rates. The majority of women are poor single mothers, serving sentences for nonviolent drug-related and property offenses. Among challenges faced when transitioning back into society are a history of interpersonal violence and financial instability. This study examines literature with regard to the barriers women experience with an emphasis on financial struggles and explores outcomes of one initiative to begin addressing the financial capability of women in a minimum security prison. Findings reveal women benefited from the class experience. Social workers are called upon for additional financial capability programming and research in this area

Transcendence over Diversity: black women in the academy

Universities, like many major public institutions have embraced the notion of ‘diversity’ virtually uncritically- it is seen as a moral ‘good in itself’. But what happens to those who come to represent ‘diversity’- the black and minority ethnic groups targeted to increase the institutions thirst for global markets and aversion to accusations of institutional racism? Drawing on existing literature which analyses the process of marginalization in higher education, this paper explores the individual costs to black and female academic staff regardless of the discourse on diversity. However despite the exclusion of staff, black and minority ethnic women are also entering higher education in relatively large numbers as students. Such ‘grassroots’ educational urgency transcends the dominant discourse on diversity and challenges presumptions inherent in top down initiatives such as ‘widening participation’. Such a collective movement from the bottom up shows the importance of understanding black female agency when unpacking the complex dynamics of gendered and racialised exclusion. Black women’s desire for education and learning makes possible a reclaiming of higher education from creeping instrumentalism and reinstates it as a radical site of resistance and refutation

Violent and victimized bodies: sexual violence policy in England and Wales

This paper uses the notion of the body to frame an archaeology of sexual violence policy in England and Wales, applying and developing Pillow’s ideas. It argues that the dominant construction is of sexual violence as an individualized crime, with the solution being for a survivor to report, and with support often instrumentalized in relation to criminal justice objectives. However, criminal justice proceedings can intensify or create further trauma for sexual violence survivors. Furthermore, in addition to criminalizing the violent body and supporting the victimized one, there is a need for policy to produce alternative types of bodies through preventative interventions. Much sexual violence is situated within (hetero) sexual dynamics constructing a masculine aggressor and a feminine body which eventually yields. Prevention must therefore focus on developing embodied boundaries, and narratives at the margins of policy could underpin such efforts

Whitman\u27s Catalog Imagery in "Song of Myself"

Walt Whitman is recognized by most authorities as one of the greatest of American poets. His most important poem is "Song of Myself." The sheer length of the poem sets it apart from most other works ; it is over 1300 lines long. Critics have been impressed by the richness of Whitman\u27s language and imagery. The poem is divided into fifty-two sections and a number of these contain his catalogs; these vary in length from a modest fifteen lines (Section 8), to a grand catalog of over one hundred and sixty lines (Section 33). Catalogs as a poetic device are not new ; however, Whitman\u27s use of them to demonstrate the essential unity of the universe amid its seeming endless diversity was unique. Three catalog sections form the subject of this paper : 8, 15 and 33. Together they display a progression of imagery which moves from a depiction of everyday American scenes, in Section 8, to Section 33, where the poet\u27s images become markedly heterogeneous and his imagination takes flight, "speeding through space" and even altering time itself as he says, "I am the clock myself." In reading the catalogs, one is swept along as the cornucopia of images accumulate ; some critics have compared the experience to watching a film. Whitman has been seen as a uniquely American poet. However, while many of his images depict the American landscape and people, in the final analysis he transcends his time and nation. People all over the world respond to his verse because it speaks directly to their hearts. It is his wider humanity that raises him to the level of a world poet. The goal of this paper is to serve as an introduction to an important part of Whitman\u27s verse and to the poet himself. "I am large, I contain multitudes.
