    Rosa Cornelia Veal Papers - Accession 1766

    No full text
    The Rosa Cornelia Veal Papers document the professional career, pedagogical philosophy, and personal life of Winthrop College Class of 1926 graduate Rosa Cornelia Veal (1904–1967), an educator whose work spanned elementary classroom instruction, teacher education, and curriculum development during the mid-twentieth century. The collection dates from 1904 to 1978, with the bulk of the materials concentrated between the 1930s and 1940s, corresponding to Veal’s tenure as an elementary school teacher and associate professor of elementary education at Ball State Teachers College. The collection contains a substantial body of teaching materials that provide insight into classroom practices, instructional methods, and educational priorities of the period. These include lesson manuals, workbooks, visual teaching aids, curriculum guides, and daily classroom records documenting student progress, instructional planning, and classroom activities. Particularly significant are Veal’s classroom record books from 1936–1937 and her extensive use of Compton’s Pictured Teaching Materials, which illustrate the emphasis on visual learning and subject-based instruction in elementary education.Veal’s contributions as an author and curriculum developer are reflected in her published and unpublished writings, including instructional materials created for classroom use and children’s books she helped to author, most notably I Learn to Write. Also included are developmental manuals and religious instructional works prepared under her guidance, demonstrating her interest in holistic child development and literacy education. Personal materials in the collection include journals and planners spanning two decades, which contain poetry, reflections on daily life, financial notes, reading excerpts, and personal observations. These writings provide a rare and intimate perspective on the professional and personal experiences of a woman educator during the early to mid-twentieth century. Biographical documents—such as probate records, census materials, school report cards, and family histories—further contextualize Veal’s life and career. The collection also documents Veal’s professional affiliations and community involvement, including her leadership in the Muncie, Indiana branch of the Association for Childhood Education and her membership in the teaching sorority Delta Kappa Gamma. Related materials include correspondence, event ephemera, name cards, and organizational records. Photographs dating from the early twentieth century through the 1940s depict Veal, family members, unidentified individuals, and travel scenes, offering visual context to her personal and professional life. Additionally, the collection includes a wide array of educational books used by Veal as both a student and educator, as well as miscellaneous ephemera reflecting intellectual, cultural, and everyday interests. Together, the Rosa Cornelia Veal Papers provide a rich resource for research on elementary education, teacher training, women educators, curriculum development, and the lived experience of professional women in education during the twentieth century.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/manuscriptcollection_findingaids/2779/thumbnail.jp

    Adrian Piper : A Synthesis of Intuitions, 1965-2016

    No full text
    " Adrian Piper has consistently produced groundbreaking work that has profoundly shaped the form and content of conceptual art since the 1960s. Strongly inflected by her longstanding involvement with philosophy and yoga, her pioneering investigations into the political, social, psychological, and spiritual potential of Conceptual art have had an incalculable influence on artists working today. Published in conjunction with the most comprehensive exhibition of her work to date, this catalogue presents more than 290 artworks that encompass the full range of Piper’s mediums: works on paper, video, multimedia installation, performance, painting, sound, and photo-texts. Essays by curators and scholars examine her extensive research into altered states of consciousness; the introduction of the Mythic Being—her subversive masculine alter-ego; her media and installation works from after 1980, which reveal and challenge stereotypes of race and gender; and the global conditions that illuminate the significance of her art.

Whittier House provided various recreational and educational programs, along with much needed social services, for the immigrant populations of Jersey City. Many of these successful services were used as models for large-scale social reform movements through the state. In 1935, the Whittier House was taken over by the Boys' Club of Jersey City

    Reading Cornelia Rau : at the limits of intelligibility

    No full text
    This article is a consideration of the case of Cornelia Rau in relation to recent accounts of intelligibility and recognition in the work of Judith Butler (2004a, 2004b). Our analysis of texts from the initial moments[2] of the Rau scandal draws on poststructuralist theory to consider the discursive constitution of subjects within those texts, tracing the fractures in thought that are evident within them. Influenced, like Butler, by the work of Michel Foucault on power and its operations on material bodies, and drawing as well on Michel de Certeau's notion of law as it is inscribed on the body, we analyse the discourses deployed in two Ministerial Media Releases that served to position Rau as unintelligible as a citizen, and thus, as undeserving of the fundamental rights of citizenry in a liberal democracy.[3

    Ulf eta Cornelia: Berlingo maitasun istorio bat

    No full text
    “Ulf and Cornelia: A Berlin love story” is part of the PhD thesis Berlin fin de millenium: An Experiment in Corporeal Ethnography, carried out between 1998 and 2003. In this article, the author puts into practice his investigative endeavor as a discovery process, narrating his encounters with Ulf and Cornelia, two bodies in transit in a Berlin characterized by its dramatic urban transformation. The focus of the ethnography is Ulf’s enamored experience. Using wonder as a knowledge technique, we will dive in the realm previous to the formation of stable identities, meaning the domain of corporeal stimulus and unconscious impulses. The subjects that appear in the scenes of this article, the author himself and the city where they live are in construction.“Ulf y Cornelia: una historia de amor berlinesa” es un apartado que pertenece a la tesis Berlín fin de milenio: un experimento en la etnografía corporal, realizada entre 1998 y 2003. En este artículo, el autor lleva a cabo una labor de investigación puesta en práctica como un proceso de descubrimientos, relatando sus encuentros con Ulf y Cornelia, dos cuerpos en tránsito en un Berlín sumido en una dramática transformación urbana. La etnografía está enfocada particularmente en la experiencia de enamoramiento de Ulf. Utilizando la capacidad de asombro como técnica para el conocimiento, nos sumergiremos en el ámbito anterior a la formación de identidades estables, es decir, en el dominio de estímulos corporales e impulsos inconscientes. Se trata, pues, de un artículo donde tanto los sujetos en escena como el propio autor y la ciudad en la que viven están en proceso de construcción.“Ulf eta Cornelia: maitasun istorio bat Berlinen”, 1999-2003 urteen artean garatutako Berlin fin de millenium: gorputz etnografíaren gaineko esperimentu bat tesiaren ataletako bat da. Artikulu honetan, autoreak, Ulfekin eta Corneliarekin, Berlin behin behineko bizilekutzat duten bi gorputzekin, bizitako uneak kontatzen dizkigu. Zehazki, Ulfen maitemintzea izango da etengabeko aurkikuntza prozesuan oinarritutako etnografía honen ardatza. Lilurarako gaitasuna ezagutzarako teknika bezala erabiliaz, nortasun egonkorrak eratu aurretiko eremura eramango gaitu, hau da, gorputz-estimulu eta bulkada inkontzienteen mundura. Azpimarratu behar da, artikulu honetan protagonista diren pertsonak, autorea bera eta bizi diren hiria eraikuntza prozesuan daudela
