Loose Ends is a collection of lyric and narrative poems that explores the multiple terrains of identity—individual, cultural, and historical. The poems embrace the essential incoherence of the self, resisting monolithic identity in favor of a multi-faceted, historically complex, imagistic rendering of the inner life. At its heart, the collection seeks to grapple with the gravitas of living: the continual assault of history and nature on human agency, the staggering context of the universe as a backdrop for communal and individual struggle. While single poems may only touch briefly or incompletely on these themes, the collection as a whole presents an admittedly inchoate picture of contemporary American identity.

This thesis relates the expeditions of General Narcio Lopez in 1850-1851, and the influence he had in the southern United States.

This thesis investigates the socio-linguistic factors that led to the emergence of a new language in Cuba known as Anagó. This language emerged from contact between multiple dialects of the West African Yoruba language and Spanish. Language contact between the Yoruba language and Spanish took place in Cuba beginning in the nineteenth century after the introduction of large numbers of Yoruba speakers into Cuba during the trans-Atlantic slave trade. This thesis argues against the opinion that Anagó is simply a corrupted and imperfect form of Yoruba. Instead, it maintains that Anagó is a new language that emerged in Cuba and became a functional vehicle for the transmission of ideas and culture. Additionally, this study will present evidence that the Anagó speaking community was a constituent part of Cuban society since the nineteenth century, and is therefore an inextricable part of Cuban cultural patrimony. Twentieth century examples of Anagó language are examined as evidence of a vital Anagó speaking transnational community.

Para isto, o trabalho examina as origens do modelo produtivista no setor agrícola e as principais causas de seu esgotamento. Aborda-se o discurso da agricultura sustentável e o papel da biotecnologia dentro deste novo padrão que se propõe para a agricultura. Posteriormente, apresenta-se uma caracterização da agricultura cubana desde 1959 até início dos noventa. Analisam-se as principais políticas e programas do Estado cubano para reduzir as perdas, substituir importações e alcançar a auto-suficiência alimentar da população. Finalmente, o trabalho coloca ênfase no desenvolvimento recente da biotecnologia agrícola em Cuba. Neste sentido, são analisadas as dificuldades e desafios para sua assimilação no novo contexto econômico cubano. Conclui-se que dadas as dificuldades econômicas do país neste momento, é pouco provável que a biotecnologia consiga responder às amplas necessidades do setor agrícola cubano no curto período / Abstract: This work presents an analyses about the recent evolution and the perspectives of agro-biotechnology in Cuba.
