Metaphor, Theory, And Practice In The History Of Psychology, David E. Leary Jan 1990

Metaphor, Theory, And Practice In The History Of Psychology, David E. Leary

Psychology Faculty Publications

In these chapters we have seen that neuropsychological discourse has been advanced by the use of metaphors from telecommunications, control systems engineering, computer science, holography, and other developments in parallel distributed processing (Pribram, Chapter 2); that theoretical discussions of the emotions have revolved around metaphors of inner feelings, physiological responses, vestiges of animal nature, diseases of the mind, driving forces, and social roles (Averill, Chapter 3); that treatments of motivation have portrayed the human person as a pawn, an agent, a natural entity, an organism, or a machine (McReynolds, Chapter 4); that a vast array of cognitive metaphors have been …

More Than Statehood On Their Minds: South Dakota Joins The Union, 1889, John E. Miller Jan 1990

More Than Statehood On Their Minds: South Dakota Joins The Union, 1889, John E. Miller

Great Plains Quarterly

"IT'S A GO," read the jubilant headline in the Huron Daily Huronite on 21 February 1889, one day after Congress passed the Omnibus Bill admitting four new states into the Union South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, and Washington.1 The following day, despite speculation that he might veto the legislation, President Grover Cleveland signed the bill into law, setting into motion a process that formally conferred statehood on South Dakota on 2 November 1889. For almost a decade momentum had been building in southern Dakota for this day, and people's frustrations with Congressional inaction had grown apace.2

Plains Indians In New Mexico: The Genízaro Experiance, Russell M. Magnaghi Jan 1990

Plains Indians In New Mexico: The Genízaro Experiance, Russell M. Magnaghi

Great Plains Quarterly

T he colonial period in American history must, include not only the English experience on the Atlantic shore but the Spanish story in the Southwest and the approaches to the Great Plains. l Part of the New Mexican story is the emergence of a new people who become part of our multicultural experience, the detribalized Indians of the Plains and Mountains who were given the name genfzaros and were eventually absorbed into Pueblo-Spanish society. 2 The Spanish had tried to implement their Indian policy on the Great Plains, but frustrated by the environment and the native people, they remained in …

Settlers, Sojourners, And Proletarians: Social Formation In The Great Plains Sugar Beet Industry, 1890-1940, Dennis Nodín Valdés Jan 1990

Settlers, Sojourners, And Proletarians: Social Formation In The Great Plains Sugar Beet Industry, 1890-1940, Dennis Nodín Valdés

Great Plains Quarterly

The sugar beet industry was in the forefront of the opening of the northern Great Plains to commercial agriculture. At the end of the nineteenth century, massive expanses of cheap land with ideal climatic and soil conditions were available on the Plains, but the sparse population afforded few farmers or field workers to block, thin, hoe, and top the sugar beets. Between 1890 and World War II, the sugar corporations devised three labor recruitment strategies that created classes of settlers, sojourners, and proletarians on the Great Plains. This essay examines the interaction between the sugar beet industry and its field …

Review Of Home Town News: William Allen White & The Emporia Gazette, William R. Elkins Jan 1990

Review Of Home Town News: William Allen White & The Emporia Gazette, William R. Elkins

Great Plains Quarterly

Sally Foreman Griffith uses the life of William Allen White, noted editor of The Emporia Gazette, as the vehicle for an insightful examination into the "role of journalism in American culture." Acknowledging that her book is a biography, Griffith nevertheless makes clear that she uses White's career "as a window, or perhaps . . . a prism to observe the communication process as a complex interaction among communicator, audience, and medium, involving many different facets, including the psychological, social, cultural, economic, technological, and political." Put more simply, Griffith gives us a fascinating look into small-town (Emporia, Kansas) America and …

Review Of Mennonite Names/Mennonitische Namen, Reuben Goertz Jan 1990

Review Of Mennonite Names/Mennonitische Namen, Reuben Goertz

Great Plains Quarterly

Do not let the bilingual title frighten you away from this book. With the exception of the picture titles and the bibliography of the East German Commission of Cultural Research, everything that is written in German has the English translation alongside. The chapter on nicknames may lose a little of its subtle humor in the translation, but English readers will still enjoy the origins and meanings of the many nicknames listed.

Review Of A Community Transplanted: The Trans-Atlantic Experience Of A Swedish Immigrant Settlement In The Upper Middle West, 1835-1915, Niel M. Johnson Jan 1990

Review Of A Community Transplanted: The Trans-Atlantic Experience Of A Swedish Immigrant Settlement In The Upper Middle West, 1835-1915, Niel M. Johnson

Great Plains Quarterly

Robert Ostergren's A Community Transplanted is something of a smorgasbord, with a meaty main course. Ostergren has drawn concepts and methodology from various social science disciplines, which perhaps limits his readership. But the book does break new ground in the extent to which it measures, correlates, and evaluates a great number of socio-economic variables in the lives of hundreds of immigrants from a Swedish parish in the 1880s.

Corporate Point Men And The Creation Of The Montana Central Railroad, 1882-87, William L. Lang Jan 1990

Corporate Point Men And The Creation Of The Montana Central Railroad, 1882-87, William L. Lang

Great Plains Quarterly

On 21 November 1887, a crowd jammed Ming's Opera House in Helena, Montana, to celebrate the completion of the Montana Central Railway, a branch line of the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway. Sharing the Opera House stage that day were railroad executives and managers from the East, Montana politicians, and local businessmen. Their reason for celebration was three-fold. First, because Montalaans had struggled for more than a decade to get rail connections, sometimes nearly making unwise and unnecessary deals with railroad corporations, getting a railroad to build through Montana was cause for celebration.Second, the Montana Central brought with it …

Review Of Kenekuk: The Kickapoo Prophet, George A. Schultz Jan 1990

Review Of Kenekuk: The Kickapoo Prophet, George A. Schultz

Great Plains Quarterly

Increasingly historians who write about leadership in the American Indian resistance movements argue that the typical leader was not the standard war chief. R. David Edmunds in his books on the Shawnee brothers Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa focuses not on their military acumen but on their unique diplomatic and political skills. Similarly, Joseph B. Herring's biography of Kenekuk, the Kickapoo prophet, reveals a rare blend of leadership skills that Kenekuk employed to unite the Vermillion band, first in Illinois and then in Kansas. Using a variety of stratagems, Kenekuk, sometimes with reason and other times with bluster, fenced with politicians and …

Review Of A Stranger In Her Native Land: Alice Fletcher And The American Indians, John R. Wunder Jan 1990

Review Of A Stranger In Her Native Land: Alice Fletcher And The American Indians, John R. Wunder

Great Plains Quarterly

This is the best written biography I have read in many years. A beautifully crafted book, it is a comprehensive picture and excellent scholarly treatment of a most unpleasant person, a person one can have little sympathy for in today's world. And yet, to the credit of the author, one comes away from this work having a much greater understanding of Alice Fletcher and a more balanced view of the meaning of her work.

The Long Winter: An Introduction To Western Womanhood, Ann Romines Jan 1990

The Long Winter: An Introduction To Western Womanhood, Ann Romines

Great Plains Quarterly

In many ways, The Long Winter is the central volume in Laura Ingalls Wilder's extraordinary sequence of seven Little House books. 1 It is the most intense and dangerous of the novels, and it covers the shortest span of time, a single legendary seven-month winter. The Ingalls family has made its fullest commitment yet to one spot on the Dakota prairie. Although Pa yearns to start again in Oregon, Ma insists that they settle so the daughters can "get some schooling." Laura, the autobiographical protagonist, is approaching adulthood. This book, darkest of the series, does indeed provide her with powerful …

The Orchestration Of Nature's Writing Surfaces, Laurie M. O'Reilly Jan 1990

The Orchestration Of Nature's Writing Surfaces, Laurie M. O'Reilly

Anthós Journal (1990-1996)

This articles stretches Derrida’s notion of writing by positing that writing itself might be thought of as "that which can be read or interpreted." This breaks the absolute bond between writing and human handicraft and suggests new ways of understanding the way we interpret natural phenomena. This paper traces this concept through numerous natural phenomena and suggests that perhaps the limits of meaning might have more to do with the interpreter’s range of understanding when it comes to natural gestures and "writings." In the end writing comes to be understood as durative, or has having duration. In this interpretation comes …
