Total Character GroupsKennedy, Chelsea Lorraine 03 July 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The total character of a finite group G is the sum of the irreducible characters of G. When the total character of a finite group can be written as a monic polynomial with integer coefficients in an irreducible character of G, we say that G is a total character group. In this thesis we examine the total character of the dicyclic group of order 4n, the non-abelian groups of order p^3, and the symmetric group on n elements for all n ≥ 1. The dicyclic group of order 4n is a total character group precisely when n is congruent to 2 or 3 mod 4, and the associated polynomial is a sum of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. The irreducible characters paired with these polynomials are exactly the faithful characters of the dicyclic group. In contrast, the non-abelian groups of order p^3 and the symmetric group on n elements with n ≥ 4 are not total character groups. Finally, we examine the special case when G is a total character group and the polynomial is of degree 2. In this case, we say that G is a quadratic total character group. We classify groups which are both quadratic total character groups and p-groups.

Benjamin E. Mays: The Role of Character in the Prolonged Struggle for African American Civil RightsLawler, Milton 17 January 2012 (has links)
This study examined the life of Benjamin Elijah Mays, in terms of discerning his character strengths and the role they played in addressing equality issues during his lifetime and beyond. Character was defined by the analytic framework of Peterson and Seligman's Character Strengths and Virtues: A Handbook and Classification. An examination of Mays's written archived works as well as key secondary references served as data sources. Peterson and Seligman's Values In Action-Inventory of Strengths (derived from and based upon their classification scheme) was converted into if/then statements to identify Mays's character strengths and virtues associated with specific historical events. The historical context focused on the social setting/event of Jim Crow and legally sanctioned segregation. Addressed was how Mays's character assisted in bringing about the end of segregation in public venues, ushering in voting rights for all disenfranchised Americans, and his use of the church and academia to recruit champions for equality in worship and life. Mays undertook an 88 year journey toward equality, a journey that spanned second slavery, passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, implementation of and failure to enforce affirmative action plans, and 44 years as a leader in the fight against segregation. Despite the fact that both the United States Senate and the House of Representatives unanimously passed resolutions in 1983 and 2001(SRs 188 and 23; HRs 17 and 49, respectively) to award Mays the Presidential Medal of Freedom “in honor of his distinguished career as an educator, civil and human rights leader, and public theologian,” the Medal was denied by the Reagan and G.W. Bush administrations. The equality issues that existed during Mays's life continue to haunt American society, but Mays's importance to the continuing struggle for civil rights and the character strengths that he brought to this struggle are undeniable and provide fertile territory for future research. / Ph.

Negotiating dramatic character in Aeschylean dramaBednarowski, Keith Paul 01 June 2010 (has links)
I argue in this dissertation that the plays of Aeschylus are best understood as
appeals to their predominantly male fifth-century Athenian audience centered around the
presentation of dramatic character. I maintain that an examination of the Persians, Seven
against Thebes, and Suppliants in these terms reveals that these plays are not primitive,
static, or simplistic plays from early in Aeschylus’ career, but rather dramatically
complex and mature works. More broadly, I assert that character studies are not
hopelessly outdated nor at odds with audience-centered and cultural studies. By
combining these approaches, we gain a fuller understanding of how playwrights
composed the plays and how spectators responded to them. I also assert that divergent
responses to dramas based on individual experiences are not only the rule for spectators
of tragedy, but directly influence how playwrights approached their dramatic characters.
The Introduction includes theoretical background for spectators’ relationship to
dramatic characters culled from film theory and an application of its general principles to
the Oresteia. In chapter 1, I examines how the Persians invites spectators to experience a
range of potentially contradictory emotional states that include fear of the Persian
invaders and sympathy with the inhabitants of the Persian Empire, with the men who
fought against them in the war, and perhaps even with Xerxes himself. In Chapter 2, I show how, initially, the Seven against Thebes strongly implies, but does not establish
beyond a doubt, that Eteocles is a paragon of Greek manhood and a noble defender of his
city with whom Athenian spectators could identify. Questions about Eteocles emerge,
however, when the play introduces Polyneices’ accusations of injustice against him,
points to increasing similarities between the brothers, and shows how their fates have
long since been sealed by their father’s curse and by the will of Apollo. In Chapters 3
and 4, I argue that the portrayal of the Danaids in the Suppliants is intentionally
ambiguous. Spectators may have known that the Danaids would kill the Aegyptids, but
the play offers vague and contradictory evidence regarding them and their situation to
generate suspense in this early play of the trilogy. / text
