1904, Senior Class Production of Sakiuntale held at Western Reserve University
No full texthttps://kent-islandora.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/allen_gallery/28/thumbnail.jpgFlorence Allen portaying King Dushyanta is pictured on the front row fourth in to the right. According to her biography Do Justly, Allen\u27s final fling at college was in persuading her class to present as the Class Day play Sakuntala, by Kalidasa, the distinguished Hindu poet of the fifth century. This was not a highly professional project on her part. Needless to say, she could not read Sanskrit. All she had was a stilted translation, but she had fun working this translation into metrical verse, and they actually performed it. The leading actor of men\u27s parts on the campus was unable to take part, so it fell to her with my strong voice and energetic, though by no means subtle, acting to play the part of the king. It was a terribly hot day and the play was given in the afternoon. She sweltered in the royal purple robe which they had rented from the costume shop, and wished she had never heard of Hindu drama.</p

Teaching Hemingway and War
No full texthttps://kent-islandora.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/hemingway/15/thumbnail.jpgPedagogical approaches to the theme of war in Hemingway’s work In 1925, Ernest Hemingway wrote to F. Scott Fitzgerald that “the reason you are so sore you missed the war is because the war is the best subject of all. It groups the maximum of material and speeds up the action and brings out all sorts of stuff that normally you have to wait a lifetime to get.” Though a world war veteran for seven years, at the time he wrote Fitzgerald, Hemingway had barely scratched the surface of his war experiences in his writing, yet it would be a subject he could never resist. As an eyewitness to the emergence of modern warfare, through the Second World War, and as a writer devoted to recreating experience on the page, Ernest Hemingway has gifted us with an oeuvre of wartime representation ideal for the classroom. Teaching Hemingway and War offers fifteen original essays on Hemingway’s relationship to war with a variety of instructional settings in mind, and the contributors bring to the volume a range of experience, backgrounds, and approaches. Some of the topics included are: The Violence of Story: Teaching In Our Time and Narrative Rhetoric Hemingway’s Maturing View of the Spanish Civil War Robert Jordan’s Philosophy of War in For Whom the Bell Tolls Hemingway, PTSD, and Clinical Depression Perceptions of Pain in The Sun Also Rises Across the River and into the Trees as Trauma Literature The final section provides three excellent undergraduate essays as examples of what students are capable of producing and as contributions to Hemingway studies in their own right.</p
