Grizzly Bears Mortalities and The Survival of The Species
Get PDFIn this paper we aim to understand what is happening in the grizzly bear population mortalities from the year 2010 to 2020. We are performing Classical and Regression Tree (CART) methods and Correspondence Analysis on data provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). We found certain variables in the data set to be important through CART methods. Correspondence Analysis then allowed us to compare these variables to determine their relationships and association to one another. Most of the grizzly bear deaths are human caused and mainly over land and resources such as food and habitat. This aligns with some of the issues mentioned in the past papers. Though grizzly population have improved, their cause of death and human-bear interaction remains relatively the same. Solutions on how to continue conserving this population will need to focus around the human-bear relationship

Oscar Wilde and the Invention of a Life-Creating Fiction
Get PDFWhen discussing the origins, rise, and contemporary legitimization of biofiction, Oscar Wilde is a crucial figure. This is not just because he authored one of the first and most important reflections about the aesthetic form, but also because he became the subject of many biofictions, most notably Desmond Hall\u27s I Give You Oscar Wilde: A Biographical Novel {1965), Peter Ackroyd\u27s The Last Testament of Oscar Wilde (1983), Louis Edwards\u27s Oscar Wilde Discovers America (2003), and Colm Toibin\u27s The Master (2004). Some, of course, would question and challenge my decision to include Toibin\u27s novel in this list, as many would say that The Master is a biographical novel about Henry James. But as I will demonstrate, Toibin has a commanding grasp of literary history, and The Master accurately foregrounds the crucial role Wilde played in both the rise ot the biographical novel and the fall of the historical novel, which is why I argue that Wilde is the primary master of The Master

The Photography of Graciela Iturbide: Transcending Colonization and Oneself
Get PDFThis paper analyzes some of the works of contemporary Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide (born 1942). In this paper, I argue that Iturbide’s work speaks to how the Mexican population and culture transcended the history of colonization, particularly works like Virgen de Guadalupe Chalma, México (Our Lady of Guadalupe, Chalma, Mexico) (2007) and Primera Comunión, Chalma, Estado de México (First Communion, Chalma, State of Mexico) (1984). In addition, I discuss how her works speak to me personally as a Latin American native and also how they tell us about her own personal traumas. Before discussing these issues by means of several examples of Iturbide\u27s works, I shed some light on the history of photography in Latin America and on some of Iturbide’s artistic influences
