Image Theses and Dissertations Not Entirely Secular, Not Entirely Sacred: Women, Modernism, and Religion This dissertation defines a tradition of American and British female modernists whose desire for full emancipation in the early twentieth century compelled them to engage dialectically with their own religious inheritances. Unlike many later twentieth-century feminist thinkers who have advocated a surgical response to gendered religious oppression - one that finds a solution in eliminating religion altogether from women's lives - novelists May Sinclair and Zora Neale Hurston and poets H.D.

Image Theses and Dissertations Embracing Islam in the Age of Terror: Post 9/11 Representations of Islam and Muslims in the United States and Personal Stories of American Converts The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were one of the most traumatic events experienced by the American people on their soil. In the aftermath of 9/11, and in the context of the War on Terror, Islam and Muslims became associated with and suspected of terrorism and anti-Americanism. While the political rhetoric of the Bush administration described the situation in terms of "us" against "them", and the enemy as "evil", conservative and anti-Islamic media sources increasingly depicted Islam as a threat to America and to the notion of freedom.

Image Theses and Dissertations The True God Slays: Secularization and Ethics in the Postwar British Novel Religion plays an essential role in the fiction produced in England after the Second World War: Catholic writers like Evelyn Waugh, Graham Greene, and Muriel Spark have come to define the midcentury novel, while spirituality infuses the work of prolific writers like Rebecca West and Iris Murdoch.

Image Theses and Dissertations The King, a Queen, and an Oath Sealed in Blood: A Cultural Re-Evaluation of the Bois-Caiman Ceremony and its Impact on the Early Haitian Revolution Historical studies have set up a paradox where religious practices are discussed as socially important to enslaved people while simultaneously are described as peripheral to the outbreak of the Haitian Revolution. Yet at the heart of the lead up to the 1791 insurgency was an Afro-Caribbean religious event called the Bois-Caiman ceremony. View Item
Image Theses and Dissertations Simulation of Nox reduction in power plant flue gas Abstract Power plant generates electricity as well as high temperature waste heat. NOx is main pollutant in power plant flue gas. NOx reduction reaction is expected to happen in given duct section. Selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) method is selected to control NOx level. SNCR requires no modification on duct geometry and this method is more cost-effective compared to other NOx reduction systems. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique is employed to simulate flue gas flow and mass and heat transports with an injection of droplets. View Item
Image Theses and Dissertations Revolutionary Reverence: The Politics of Memory and Identity in the Baptist Church of post-Revolutionary Virginia The desire of post-Revolutionary Virginia Baptists to publish a record of their own history speaks to the mindset of early American nationalism, where the recent boom in the popularity and accessibility of print allowed for various groups to proclaim themselves truly American in a definitive manner. Often, this process played out in newspapers and pamphlets, as public debates and assertions of nationalism by partisan groups constantly redefined what it meant to be a true American. However, the discourse was not limited to circulatory accounts. View Item
Image Theses and Dissertations Paradoxes of Toleration: The Ambiguities of Church and State in Colonial and Revolutionary Pennsylvania This dissertation offers a reassessment of Pennsylvania's place as a model for religious liberty from settlement up to the election of 1800. Through a careful examination of private papers, printed material, denominational minutes, and governmental records, this dissertation uncovers a more complicated picture of religious liberty in the commonwealth than previous studies have acknowledged. This dissertation shows that Penn's vision for his colony created a confounding relationship between church and state rather than a bastion of religious freedom. View Item
