Island of Tranquility: Rhetoric and Identification at Brigham Young University During the Vietnam EraJackson, Brian D. 01 January 2003 (has links) (PDF)
The author argues that beyond religious beliefs and conservative politics, rhetorical identification played an important role in the relative calmness of the BYU campus during the turbulent Sixties. Using Bitzer's rhetorical situation theory and Burke's identification theory, the author shows that BYU's calm campus can be explained as a result of communal identification with a conservative ethos. He also shows that apparent epistemological shortcomings of Bitzer's model can be resolved by considering the power of identification to create salience and knowledge in rhetorical situations. During the Sixties, BYU administration developed policies on physical appearance that invited students to take on a conservative identity, and therefore a conservative behavior. Relationships of power and hierarchy at BYU can be understood not as quantitative and oppressive matrices, but as rhetorical choices of students to identify with the character of school president, Ernest Wilkinson, and the administration. Power, then, is as Foucault envisioned it—as a field wherein identity and discourse are negotiated. This thesis argues for a more broad understanding of identification, ethos, and power for explaining rhetorical behavior in communal situations.

Mercenaries in Service to America: The "More Flags" Foreign Policy of the United StatesBlackburn, Robert M. (Robert Michael) 08 1900 (has links)
On 23 April 1964, five months after assuming the office of President of the United States, Lyndon B. Johnson launched the "More Flags" program as United States policy. While the publicly stated purpose of.the "More Flags" program was to obtain as much non-military free world aid for the Republic of Vietnam as possible, the program's principle goal centered around Lyndon Johnson's desire to obtain an international consensus for America's policies toward Vietnam and Southeast Asia. The "More Flags" program continued to serve both goals for the remainder of Johnson's presidency. Although started with high expectations of success, the "More Flags" program never succeeded in achieving the levels of international cooperation Lyndon Johnson desired. In fact, the program's significant lack of success necessitated a number of changes, during the program's first year, in both its stated goals and in the methods used to prosecute it's implementation. The most important of these changes would be Washington's use of the program's beneficent objectives to mask it's use as the means through which the United States would purchase mercenary troops to fight in South Vietnam. "Mercenaries in Service to America: The 'More Flags' Foreign Policy of the United States," presents the available history of the "More Flags" program during the years of the Johnson Presidency, with an emphasis on the documentation of the program's use as a disguise for America's obtaining mercenary forces from the Republic of Korea, the Philippines, and Thailand. The non-mercenary troop contributions from Australia and New Zealand are likewise examined. The majority of documentary evidence comes from the original sources documents in the Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library in Austin, Texas.

Accueil et réinsertion des vétérans de la guerre du Viêt-nam, vus a travers la presse américaine [1966-1978] / The reception and reintegration of Vietnam war veterans as seen through the American press [1966-1978]Carval, Sylvie 11 December 2010 (has links)
Cette thèse étudie la représentation de l’accueil et de la réinsertion des vétérans du Viêt-nam dans deux quotidiens américains de qualité, le New York Times et le Washington Post, de 1966 à 1978. La comparaison entre les deux journaux est complétée par les analyses de deux hebdomadaires, The Nation et Newsweek, et d’un bimensuel, la National Review, qui balayent toute la gamme des points de vue sur le sujet. Deux périodes peuvent être distinguées : de 1966 à 1970, la réintégration des anciens combattants semble être facile, selon les publications. De 1971 à 1978, la couverture médiatique s’intensifie dans un premier temps, du fait des difficultés de réinsertion que les Vietvets rencontrent et osent enfin exprimer avec force ; la presse paraît ensuite se désintéresser progressivement d’eux. L’évolution, dans les journaux, de la représentation des vétérans et de leur réinsertion reflète l’évolution de la société et de l’économie américaines. Si les deux quotidiens s’adressent, a priori, à des lectorats voisins, les réalités qu’ils choisissent de montrer, en les déformant suivant leur biais idéologique, divergent souvent. Il s’agit également de voir dans quelle mesure leurs représentations ont pu aider la réinsertion des anciens combattants ou, au contraire, la rendre plus délicate. / This thesis studies the reception and the reintegration in society of Vietnam war veterans as they are represented in two American dailies, The New York Times and The Washington Post. To this comparison between the two newspapers are added the analyses of two weeklies, The Nation and Newsweek, and a bimonthly, National Review, which provide a complete range of the various point of views on the subject. Two periods stand out: from 1966 to 1970, the reintegration of the former soldiers seemed to be easy, according to the newspapers. From 1971 to 1978, the coverage by the media first intensified owing to the difficulties of reintegration that the Vietvets faced and dared to voice loudly for the first time; the press then appeared to progressively lose interest in them. The evolution, in the newpapers, of the representation of the veterans and of their reintegration mirrored the evolution of American society and economy. If both dailies a priori addressed the same kind of readers, the reality that they chose to present and distort through their ideological bias often differed. The thesis also tries to show how their representations may have helped or hindered the reintegration of Vietvets in society.

After the Towers Fell: Musical Responses to 9/11Claassen, Andrew Robertson 01 January 2009 (has links)
The tragic and devastating September 11 attacks resulted in a variety of original musical responses. Exemplary works expressed their reactions through overt 9/11-concentric dialogues to express themes of mourning, military retribution, dissent and commemoration. An examination of such works concludes that effective musical responses express a direct message clarified by supporting musical and/or textual materials. Musical materials can accentuate the specific thematic message of the responsive work as they often evoke images and emotions reminiscent of the attacks and their aftermath. Compositional techniques used in these works are often reminiscent of historical works written in similar circumstances. The recurrence of these historical approaches illuminates the timeless compositional design of historical examples and exemplifies modern advancements in music composition and production. A comparison between classical and popular post-9/11 musical compositions concludes that certain classical and popular genres deal with responsive themes more effectively than others. A recommendation for further study is enclosed.
