Both but Between
This book attempts to intersect two languages and comes in the form of an alphabet book using Hangul and English.
The Korean alphabet Hangul consists of at least one consonant and one vowel to make a syllable which forms one character.
Words have been selected that reflect my identity. I used the English alphabet but employed the structure of Hangul. By reflecting the Korean letter form and combing the two languages, this book opens a window for an English-speaking person into my struggle with a foreign language.
The Korean font used in this book is \u27Hunmin Jeongeum\u27, which is the original name for Hangul. The English font is \u27Book Antiqua\u27. — Jana Simhttps://scholarship.rollins.edu/book_arts/1133/thumbnail.jp
The Fool\u27s Journey and Other Stories
The Fool\u27s Journey and Other Stories is a hybrid creative writing and research-based thesis project written by Kendall Clarke. Within, Kendall explores the power of the tarot deck as a generative tool for writers. She does so through a collection of fiction pieces that centers around the themes, structures, and images within the Rider-Waite tarot deck. This creative work is informed by and put into conversation with research on the history between literature and tarot as well as how contemporary writers utilize the tarot in their own writing practices. The collection contains 15 individual fiction pieces for a total of over 60 pages of prose writing. This collection is accompanied by a 31-page Critical Essay and Reflection containing research on tarot and literature as well as Kendall\u27s personal reflections on her writing process, the tarot deck, and her creative inspirations. Ultimately, Kendall found the Rider-Waite tarot deck to be very generative, resulting in a diverse variety of stories
Telehealth During COVID-19: A Look at Healthcare Providers’ Experiences
Healthcare providers were placed under considerable strain during the COVID-19 pandemic. To exacerbate matters more, a sudden shift to telehealth became necessary to provide safe provider-patient visits. The increased strain created by the sudden need to implement a telehealth protocol is believed to have decreased workplace satisfaction. This study aims to investigate how the rapid shift to telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic affected healthcare providers’ workplace satisfaction, how virtual visits created challenges and opportunities for provider-patient communication, and how the use of telemedicine during the COVID-19 pandemic affected healthcare providers’ capacity to engage in patient-centered communication. For this study, 15 primary healthcare providers were interviewed. Learning a new system and protocols in order to conduct virtual visits, as well as new obstacles that providers never encountered before, created a challenge for providers all over. A year after the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, telehealth has demonstrated the benefits of permanently incorporating it as a tool for providers to utilize in the future of medicine
The Death-Song of g-man
The Death-song of g-man is a coming of age story. More specifically, it is a collection of short stories that tell the tale of a generation Xer who came of age during the latter half of the 20th century in America. Half the collection takes place in a decayed New York City during the 1970s and 80s. The second half is situated in the green, clean and pristine city of Seattle in the early 1980s. The Death-song of g-man is transitional in that it reveals aspects of American life as one century waned and another was soon to be ushered in. One benefit of having a memory is that we can recall both the good and the bad. The point of recalling the good is celebration, and the point of recalling the bad is not to make one depressed, but rather, to remind us of what we have learned along the way and how we have grown into the people we are today. The bad came with the good, and the good can’t be separated from the bad. I think that summarizes The Death-song of g-man. It is a homogenization of the evil and the good that g-man experienced while coming of age in the latter 20th century. And the concept of good and evil in my recollection of the western canon brings me to Milton’s Paradise Lost. And Milton always brings me to Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus. Did g-man need the bad to achieve the good? As The Steve Miller Band sang, “You know you got to go through hell / before you get to heaven.
