A TALE OF TWO CITIES: DIET, HEALTH AND MIGRATION IN POST-MEDIEVAL COVENTRY AND CHELSEA THROUGH BIOGRAPHICAL RECONSTRUCTION, OSTEOARCHAEOLOGY AND ISOTOPE BIOGEOCHEMISTRY
No full textBiogeochemical research has over the past four-and-a-half decades improved our understanding of human interaction with past environments. The application of different isotope systems has allowed archaeologists to interpret ancient diet, migration and pollution. Although well established in archaeology, biogeochemical interpretations are burdened with questions not only as to the methodology employed but also whether the data presents a consistent picture of past human activity. The use of biographically identifiable individuals offers a means by which the isotope systems may be tested against extent documentary evidence. A sample of forty-five individuals, almost half of which were named individuals, were obtained from the sites of Holy Trinity (Coventry) and St. Luke's (Old Street, Chelsea) and the stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, strontium and lead analysed. The biographies ofthe named individuals were reconstructed through analysis ofextant historical documentation and' used to provide a framework of interpretation for the biogeochemical teclmiques applied. Comparisons are made between the two sites in relation to the biogeochemical techniques employed, biographical reconstruction and osteoarchaeological evidence for disease, migration and diet to address methodological issues and broader questions on 'i,ndustrialisation' during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The osteoarchaeological evidence suggests separation of the two groups into discrete' populations, one that is characterised by occupationally-derived osteoarthropathies (Coventry), and the second, Chelsea, which has an absence of these pathologies. This supports the historical character of the t\VO cities: Coventry as an industrial city in contrast to Chelsea, a 'village of palaces' or pleasure resort. Biogeochemically, carbon and nitrogen isotopes revealed a picture of status-based access to protein resources in a diet that is particularly dominated by freshwater fish, terrestrial omnivores such as pig, or a combination of the two. There is, however, little evidence for a difference in access to such resources between the sexes. Likewise, strontium and oxygen isotopes are capable of differentiating between the two populations and therefore in identifying local and migrant individuals, though limitations in the sample prevent the full utilisation of this data. In one case (Milborough Maxwell) the isotopic techniques \vere able to reveal trans-Atlantic migration between England and the Caribbean. Analysis of lead isotopes of the two populations indicates that while there is little to differentiate the two sites, heavy metal exposure is greater for the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries than for previous periods.EThOS - Electronic Theses Online ServiceGBUnited Kingdo

These People Deprived of This Country : Language and the Politics of Belonging among Indians of Nepali Descent
No full textThis dissertation explores the way 'language,‘ like other forms of social designations—e.g. race, ethnicity, or caste—gains meaning through social, legal, and linguistic practices and ideologies. Indians of Nepali descent have lived and worked in the Darjeeling hills for more than 150 years yet are, throughout India, often labeled as 'foreigners,‘ 'tribals,‘ and 'squatters.‘ They also speak Nepali, a major factor that contributes to such perceptions despite their Indian citizenship. To counteract these labels and those discriminatory policies and practices they have incited, the Indian Nepali community in Darjeeling founded an organization in 1972 whose goal was the constitutional recognition of Nepali a national language of India. This recognition would, they argued, lead to an acceptance of their language and, more importantly, the recognition of their Indian citizenship. Although the Nepali language was finally included in the constitution in 1992, the anticipated social, political, and legal acceptance of the community was not forthcoming. Continuing discrimination, along with economic and political shifts in the region, has led to significant changes in the linguistic practices and language ideologies among Indians of Nepali descent in Darjeeling—most notably the increasing, and conflicted, use of English that was only visible when both ethnographic and linguistic methods (matched-guise test) were utilized.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Chelsea L.

An examination of quality of life in women with compulsive hair pulling
No full textThe present study explored how trichotillomania (TTM) impacts women’s lives in a systematic and detailed manner, by allowing participants to elaborate on the idiosyncratic ways in which hair pulling affects them across multiple domains. Fourteen adult women with a mean age of 22.9 (SD = 4.8) having met criteria for problematic hair pulling behaviors accompanied by subjective distress and/or impairment, completed an online series of self-report questionnaires measuring symptoms related to: quality of life (QOL), anxiety, depression and TTM. Eight of these women subsequently completed a follow-up telephone interview to gather qualitative information regarding the impact of hair pulling on their lives. Severity of symptoms on all measures did not significantly differ for women who completed the interviews compared to those who did not. Quantitative results indicated that TTM did not relate to anxiety, depression or QOL using typical self-report measures even though QOL did have an inverse relationship with anxiety and depression. Using grounded theory, six conceptual categories emerged from qualitative analysis of the data as related to women’s QOL: Shame and Secrecy, Appearance, Relationships and Trust, Perceived Benefits, and Acceptance. Each of these categories was further broken down into subcategories to facilitate discussion. The results of the present study suggest that hair pulling has positive, negative and neutral ramifications on women’s lives not typically captured by standard inventories measuring QOL. The effects of hair pulling identified in the study have implications on both research and practice.Psy. D.Includes bibliographical referencesby Chelsea Hetrick Hersperge

Originally from the Island Nation of The Bahamas, her research interests include various forms of tourism including small island sustainable tourism development, volunteer tourism, wellness tourism and more recently, issues related to diversity and inclusion in the travel and tourism sphere. She is passionate about studying travel, tourism and its impact through a critical and non-traditional lense.
Stefanie Benjamin is an Assistant Professor at the University of Tennessee. She identifies as a critical tourism scholar with research revolving around race, gender, and power in tourism. Additionally, she is devoted to sustainable tourism; film-induced tourism; improvisational theater games in higher education; and PhD students’ well-being.
Chelsea Carpenter is an undergraduate student studying under Dr. Benjamin at the University of Tennessee. This is her first academic research project and she is passionate about issues related to race, ethnicity and diversity and inclusion.Oral PresentationAfrican Americans in the United States have long since been confronted with harassment and discrimination while traveling due to segregated lodging, restaurants, and other leisure activities. However, African Americans/Blacks are one of the fastest growing tourist groups. This work builds on previous research on the Black travel experience analyzing over three hundred tweets using the hashtag #travelingwhileblack through a Critical Race Theory (CRT) lens. By analyzing how Black tourists are traveling, this study reveals how experiential knowledge of Black travelers can contribute to the learning environment of the tourism industry. Three emergent themes were identified: (1) occurrences of racism (2) awareness of being Black while traveling and (3) meaningful experiences traveling while Black, suggesting that experiential knowledge of travelers of color brings different perspectives, that will hopefully, move toward eliminating all forms of subordination and create a more just society

Edward Carpenter and the interior
No full textIn Towards Democracy, his major work published in four volumes between 1883 and 1902, Edward Carpenter makes a bold promise: ‘You are in prison and I can give you space’.1 This metaphor of space as political and personal freedom is, in many respects, mere convention. But Carpenter's usage deserves a more considered analysis. For he attempted to bridge the gap between the metaphorical and the literal, to bring this idea of free space to daily life and, in doing so, to challenge the conventional configuration of sexuality, politics, and space. When Carpenter promised space, he meant to do so in a literal manner.
It is telling that Carpenter deployed this idea of external space so powerfully at a moment when, for many homosexual men, it was the interior that afforded them some sense of what sexual freedom would be. While homosexuality was certainly present in the public space of a city like London in the late-nineteenth century, one need only think of the popular gentlemen's lavatory in Marylebone or the cruising grounds by the Thames, it was the domestic interior where sexuality was more often adumbrated, and sexual identity crafted. The domestic interior served not only as a means of escape, a refuge from homophobia, but also as a place to integrate homosexual and heterosexual lives. This was certainly true of someone like the designer and writer C. R. Ashbee whose house in Chelsea was both his family home, and imprinted everywhere with the comradely and eroticised relations with the men in his Guild of Handicraft; this chimney piece, for instance, is marked with the Guild's symbol of the pink as well as the initials of both Ashbee and his artisanal colleague Arthur Cameron (Fig. 1).2 The interior provided a space for imaginative projection, for dreaming
