A large-clawed theropod (Dinosauria: Tetanurae) from the Lower Cretaceous of Australia and the Gondwanan origin of megaraptorid theropods
No full textMegaraptoridae comprises a clade of enigmatic Gondwanan theropods with characteristic hypertrophied claws
on the first and second manual digits. The majority of megaraptorids are known from South America, although a
single genus (Australovenator) plus additional indeterminate material is also known from Australia. This clade
has a controversial placement among theropods, and recently has been interpreted alternatively as a
carcharodontosaurian or a tyrannosauroid lineage. We describe new fragmentary but associated postcranial remains
from the opal fields of Lightning Ridge (middle-Albian, Griman Creek Formation) in north-central New
South Wales. The new unnamed taxon exhibits a number of unusual features that suggest the presence of a hitherto
unrecognised Australian megaraptorid. From an Australian perspective, the Lightning Ridge taxon predates
Australovenator by ca. 10 Ma and is minimally coeval with megaraptoran material reported from the Eumeralla
Formation of Victoria (but potentially 6.1–9.5 Ma younger). It is also notable as the largest predatory dinosaur
yet identified from Australia and is only the second theropod known from more than a single element. A Bayesian
phylogenetic approach integrating morphological, stratigraphic and palaeogeographic information tested both
the carcharodontosaurian and tyrannosauroid placements for Megaraptora. Regardless of the preferred placement
among Tetanurae, rigorous palaeobiogeographic analyses support an Asian origin of Megaraptora in the latest
Jurassic (about 150–135 Ma), an Early Cretaceous (about 130–121 Ma) divergence of the Gondwanan lineage
leading to Megaraptoridae, and an Australian root for megaraptorid radiation. These results indicate that
Australia's Cretaceous dinosaur fauna did not comprise simply of immigrant taxa but was a source for complex
two-way interchange between Australia–Antarctica–South America leading to the evolution of at least one
group of apex predatory dinosaurs in Gondwan

Elizabeth R. Carpenter
No full textA native of Hoboken, New Jersey, Emily S. McCain was already forty years old when she started publishing short stories in newspapers and magazines under the pen name Elizabeth R. Carpenter. Shortly afterward, she ventured into the field of screenwriting, where she established herself as a successful independent freelancer. By the mid-1910s, “Elizabeth R. Carpenter” was a prominent author at the peak of her career, and a celebrated figure in the burgeoning film industry. Sometimes also credited as E. R. Carpenter, she sold scenarios to major studios like Vitagraph, Edison, Kalem, and Lubin, and left behind a trail of praise in the early film press. But, despite her literary achievements, McCain kept her real identity well concealed, to the point that specialized film trade outlets, as well as film historians in the following decades, never referred to Carpenter by any other name or seemed aware that this was a pseudonym. Carpenter disappeared suddenly from the industry and press around 1919, leaving behind few clues about her life and identity. Putting a name to the person behind Carpenter has been possible only after the extensive research undertaken for this profile, which represents the first effort to shed light on the screenwriter’s real identity

RoMEO Studies 6: Rights metadata for open-archiving
No full textThis is the final study in a series of six emanating from the UK JISC-funded RoMEO Project (Rights Metadata for Open-archiving) which investigated the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues relating to academic author self-archiving of research papers. It reports the results of a survey of 542 academic authors showing the level of protection required for their open-access research papers. It then describes the selection of an appropriate means of expressing those rights through metadata and the resulting choice of Creative Commons licences. Finally it outlines proposals for communicating rights metadata via the Open Archives Initiative’s Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH)

Letter from Earle and Mimi Yusa to Joseph R. and Elizabeth B. Goodman
No full textLetter from Earle and Mimi Yusa to Joseph R. and Elizabeth B. Goodman. Letter mentions contentious objector status for a draft, and Mimi's pregnancy. Letter reflects on incarcerees contact with American Indians: "The contacts with Indian people around here have awakened many of us to the extent of the dangers of these concentration camps. The problem that exist with the Indians is one that needs greater attention that [than] that of ours. Are we trying to solve one problem while another with deeper roots remains neglected? I wonder where our consistency is?" Letter also mentions "our SCA group and student relocation hasn't gone anywhere," and writes of "apathy, complacency, ward-of-the government attitude, and fear of the outside" in the camp. And, "as far as my resettling is concerned, I'm really in a dilemma as what I should do."Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R.

Tudor women writers fashioning masculinity
No full textThis thesis contributes to the growing interest in early modern masculinity and its literary representations by introducing texts by women writers into dialogue with their male-authored counterparts. It argues for a more nuanced approach that recognises that the concepts of masculinity and femininity can only be fully understood when studied in relation with each other.
The first chapter explores how, notwithstanding the wisdom of conduct books and marriage guides, the demands of the state may not always be commensurate with those of the domestic realm and shows that this conflict necessitates a rethinking of existing definitions of masculinity by focusing on selected writings of the Tudor sisters Mary and Elizabeth and Jane Fitzalan’s *Tragedie of Iphigeneia*. The second chapter identifies how Elizabeth’s unique discursive strategies were designed to elicit support from her male subjects and subdue the belligerence that simmered under polemic like John Stubbs’ *Gaping Gulf*. In her letters to Anjou, the chapter examines how Elizabeth manoeuvred around her position as a beloved and as a monarch to fashion a husband who would not only be sympathetic but also subordinate to her political authority. This chapter also shows how the fabulous world of John Lyly’s *Galatea* consummates the Queen’s desire for the ideal male subject. The final chapter investigates the construction of martial manhood. It juxtaposes Mary Sidney’s *The Tragedy of Antonie* with William Shakespeare’s *Antony and Cleopatra* to determine how the figure of Cleopatra, common to both plays, challenges and revises the martial code of masculinity as embodied by Antony. By examining the authorial position appropriated by Cleopatra in the plays and its impact on the narrative, this chapter also extends this thesis’ interest in the extent to which female characters within texts compete for diegetic control with male protagonists
