Mona Simpson: Q&A with the Bestselling Novelist and Professor of English
No full textMona Simpson writes novels. Her 1987 debut, Anywhere But Here, follows Adele and Ann August, a mother and daughter who move from the Midwest to Los Angeles in search of a less ordinary life. The novel went on to be a national bestseller, winning the Whiting Award in 1986, catapulting the author into the literary spotlight. Simpson followed her first novel’s success with a sequel: The Lost Father, published in 1992. Four years later, Simpson returned with A Regular Guy (1996). That same year Granta named Simpson one of America’s Best Young Novelists. In 2000, Simpson published Off Keck Road, a novel about a small town spinster, a man who has always been in her life, and a young girl, who completes the odd triangle. This work was a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award. Her upcoming novel, My Hollywood (Knopf, Spring 2010), depicts the upstairs/downstairs ironies, enmities, and strange affections between a community of immigrant nannies and their employers in contemporary Los Angeles. Presently, Simpson has begun a story about the lives and loves of Diaspora Arabs in Europe, the Gulf, and the United States, and of their more assimilated, half-American cousins. Simpson is also a Professor in the Department of English and plays an active part in organizing the Friends of English and Hammer Museum’s popular “Some Favorite Writers” series. On a recent summer afternoon, I sat down in a Brentwood coffee shop with Simpson to talk about her work and, in particular, The American Cousins
Does the Decline of the Humanities Track the Decline in Civil Society?
No full textThe following conversation took place on January 28, 2022 in Davis California between Margaret Ferguson, David Simpson, Andrea Ross and the interviewer, NASJ editor Andrew Majeske (AM). Margaret Ferguson (MF), Professor Emerita at UC Davis, is author of Dido’s Daughters: Literacy, Gender and Empire in Early Modern England and France, as well as other books and numerous articles. She is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, she is past president of the Modern Language Association, and she was co-editor for the 6th and most recent edition of the Norton Anthology of Poetry. Margie’s husband, David Simpson (DS), Professor Emeritus at UC Davis, retired from there as G. B. Needham Endowed Chair in English. He also is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, as well as a former Guggenheim Fellow, and is a past president of the Wordsworth-Coleridge Association. He is author of many books, most recently of States of Terror: History, Theory, Literature (U of Chicago P 2019), and Engaging Violence: Civility and the Reach of Literature, forthcoming later this year from Stanford UP. Andrea Ross (AR) is the author of Unnatural Selection: A Memoir of Adoption and Wilderness and teaches in UC Davis’ University Writing Program
Data for Envelope Frequency Following Responses to Filtered Word Stimuli
No full textRaw EEG data in .bdf format, collected using a 32-channel ActiveTwo EEG system (BioSemi, the Netherlands). EEG data were measured during presentation of words at an intensity of 70 dB SPL LA eq using ER-2 insert earphones. Words are filtered in different band (0-500 Hz, 0-1000 Hz, 1000-end Hz and 2000-end Hz), with end being 8000 Hz as words were recorded at a sampling rate of 16000 Hz. Stimuli were 3 words presented randomly with an inter-stimulus interval of 1s. Data are published in according with the EPSRC guidelines for data sharing.

Opening the can of worms: molecular analysis of schistosome populations
No full textThe Schistosomatidae are dioecious digenean parasites of the blood vascular system of vertebrates. Of the 13 genera within the family, only Sehistosoma is associated with humans and, of the mammalian blood flukes, this genus has achieved the greatest geographical distribution and diversification in terms of recognized species and definitive hosts parasitized. In this review, Dave Johnston, Emmanuel Dias Neto, Andy Simpson and David Rollinson consider some recent molecular research that either sheds light on the micro-evolutionary changes occurring within schistosome populations or provides insights into broader, macro-evolutionary questions.</p
