The Life and Letters of William Sharp and "Fiona Macleod"
No full text"William Sharp (1855-1905) conducted one of the most audacious literary deceptions of his or any time. Sharp was a Scottish poet, novelist, biographer and editor who in 1893 began to write critically and commercially successful books under the name Fiona Macleod. This was far more than just a pseudonym: he corresponded as Macleod, enlisting his sister to provide the handwriting and address, and for more than a decade ""Fiona Macleod"" duped not only the general public but such literary luminaries as William Butler Yeats and, in America, E. C. Stedman.
Sharp wrote ""I feel another self within me now more than ever; it is as if I were possessed by a spirit who must speak out"". This three-volume collection brings together Sharp’s own correspondence – a fascinating trove in its own right, by a Victorian man of letters who was on intimate terms with writers including Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Walter Pater, and George Meredith – and the Fiona Macleod letters, which bring to life Sharp’s intriguing ""second self"".
With an introduction and detailed notes by William F. Halloran, this richly rewarding collection offers a wonderful insight into the literary landscape of the time, while also investigating a strange and underappreciated phenomenon of late-nineteenth-century English literature. It is essential for scholars of the period, and it is an illuminating read for anyone interested in authorship and identity.

Dr. Patrick Allitt (Cahoon Family Professor of American History at Emory University) presents William Buckley and the Decline of American Conservative Racism: 1955-95, while author William Hogeland presents On the Beaches, in the Hills, in the Mountains: William Buckley\u27s Legacy in the Politics of Denial
The death of William Golding: authorship and creativity in darkness visible and the paper men
No full textIn the seventies and eighties William Golding was deeply responsive to the critical, anti-authorial ethos that followed the publication of Roland Barthes's "La mort de I'auteur" (1968). In Darkness Visible (1979) and The Paper Men (1984) he investigates means by which to reaffirm authorial presence. Working through paradox, he performs the authorial death in these novels, and establishes language’s inadequacy as a means of conveying absolute meaning, authorial "vision," truth or revelation. Having done so he nonetheless gestures towards the divine, towards the possibility of a vatic communication. In this manner the novels work upon principles of contradiction and collapse. What remains is a discourse of hope, promise, desire, without means of substantiating such optimism. Thus Golding might be said to have practiced a form of negative theology, and to have anticipated in this respect some recent trends in literary theory
Intern experience with William F. Guyton & Associates: an internship report
No full textIncludes author's vita"Submitted to the College of Engineering of Texas A&M University in partial
fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Engineering."Includes bibliographical referencesThis report is a review of the author's experience as an intern with
William F. Guyton & Associates. William F. Guyton & Associates is a consulting
groundwater hydrology firm with offices in Austin and Houston, Texas. The intern worked at the
main office in Austin for the duration of the internship. The author worked on a variety of
projects during the internship. These projects encompassed general groundwater studies,
computer simulation, technical analyses of aquifer parameters, and inspection of water well
construction and testing. General groundwater studies involved the collection of water well
construction and chemical analyses data. The author wrote several computer codes to handle
basic computations, and the author used several existing finite difference codes to simulate
groundwater movement. The technical analyses of pumping test data were analyzed by the author
to determine aquifer parameters. The field work involved on-site inspection of water well
construction and involved quality control of the pumping test after construction. The author
interacted with various agencies of the state and federal government. This interaction was
necessary to many of the projects. The collection of water well data and the use of the finite
difference codes gave the author the opportunity to obtain knowledge of the daily operations
of these agencies

William F. Buckley, Winter Commencement Address, 1971
No full textWilliam F. Buckley Jr. was an American conservative author and television commentator, most notably on his own program, Firing Line, where he became known for his transatlantic accent and wide vocabulary. Regarded as one of the most important conservative intellectuals of his time, Buckley here lays out three concepts that he has taken from his association with the youth of 1971. First, Buckley emphasizes the younger generation’s affinity for new technologies, and explains that with every new technological advance, there are concerns as well as benefits. Second, Buckley has learned from the youth that reason will hold as much influence as romanticism in the decisions made by the graduating generation. Third, Buckley has realized that the youth of 1971 are fully able to determine that the idealism of others is just as valuable as their own idealism, though it may differ greatly. At the end of this recording, 5 honorary degrees are given, including one to Buckley, as well as another honorary degree to Motown Records founder Barry Gordy.https://commons.emich.edu/speeches/1047/thumbnail.jp
