Wade : A political discourse analysis Petersson, Julia January 2022 (has links) This paper uses a discourse analysis approach to analyze the political road to the Supreme Courts’ overturning of Roe v Wade and Casey. By using the theoretical framework by Fairclough and Fairclough (2012), the analysis is able to study the arguments which founded the historic decision, and its possible impact on women’s reproductive rights in the U.S. today.

3	“How frigid zones reward the advent’rers toils”: natural history writing and the British imagination in the making of Hudson Bay, 1741-1752 Melchin, Nicholas 23 December 2009 (has links) During the 1740’s, Hudson Bay went from an obscure backwater of the British Empire to a locus of colonial ambition. Arthur Dobbs revitalized Northwest Passage exploration, generating new information about the region’s environment and indigenous peoples. This study explores evolving English and British representations of Hudson Bay’s climate and landscape in travel and natural history writing, and probes British anxieties about foreign environments. I demonstrate how Dobbs’ ideology of improvement optimistically re-imagined the North, opening a new discursive space wherein the Subarctic could be favourably described and colonized. I examine how Hudson Bay explorers’ responses to difficulties in the Arctic and Subarctic were seen to embody, even amplify, central principles and features of eighteenth-century British culture and identity. Finally, I investigate how latitude served as a benchmark for civilization and savagery, subjugating the Lowland Cree and Inuit to British visions of settlement and improvement in their home territories.
