Daughter of fortune: Isabel Allende's popularity from a readership perspective
No full textThe primary aim of this thesis is to explore and critically interrogate Isabel Allende’s popularity cross-culturally in Britain and Spain. It analyses readers’ responses to Allende’s works as well as the discourses surrounding her public representation, an approach that is ‘readerly’ but must also take account of production and text. This approach is intended to further the understanding of Allende’s work which so far has always been analysed from a textual perspective. However, the relationship between Allende’s popularity, her texts, public representation and readers has not been yet analysed in detail.This thesis is innovative in other ways too. Methodologically, it approaches readers through the under studied cultural form of the reading group. It also incorporates a comparative dimension by looking at the reception of Allende in two different cultural contexts: the British and Spanish respectively. Finding out about Allende’s popularity has involved asking readers about their reading experiences as well as analysing the production of discourses around her public representation. Paul Ricoeur’s (1984, 1988) perspective on authorial intentions and readers’ responses to texts helps in understanding the intricacies surrounding what is involved in reading any text. It draws attention to Allende’s and her publishers’ authorial strategies, her ‘strategies of persuasion’ and the specificity of the lives and contexts of British and Spanish reading publics. Equally, this ‘readerly’ approach draws on feminist audience research and primarily on the work of Ien Ang and Janice Radway. Their work with viewers and readers respectively is particularly useful in establishing and developing methodological parameters for the study of reading groups. As a whole, this thesis contributes to the understanding of Allende’s cross-cultural popularity by situating readers at the centre

Gilbert Paterson Junior High Lethbridae. AlbertaVALEDICTORY by Reva Storfie
To us, 1956-5? graduates of the Gilbert Paterson Junior High School, the term '‘graduating" means far more than a movement from Junior High to the realm of High School. Graduation is the portal to an intricate and ever changing world, which, particularly today, demands from each of us advanced knowledge and understanding much beyond that which we possess now. In this modern era, the value of education far exceeds the value of material things. And, upon this belief, we base our goals, standards and values. Passed down from teachers and parents have been the high standards which we hope to uphold for all times. Nov; has come the time not only to think about values, but to put those beliefs into effect.
For nine well planned years of our lives, we have attended classes at both the elementary and Junior High School levels. Each year precise information was gathered and added to the fund of knowledge gained in previous years. As the years progressed, we learned to be less dependent of others. Through guidance, came the time when we were even able to answer some of our own questions. The most cherished of all years, have been the two event-filled years at Paterson. As Paterson's second graduating class, we have often worked diligently and attained satisfaction in our many and varied courses of study. Now, after these nine school years, we are prepared to advance to the higher grades, and we find that our education is just beginning a new phase.
But, looking back, we find Paterson Junior High has given us many things with which to face the future years. First of all, wisdom, in being able to realize what a necessity a good education is.
Secondly, through extra curricular activities, which this school has many, the ability to cooperate with others, and thirdly, the ability to appreciate fully the people associated with our school.
As we, presently Grade Nine students, and tomorrow’s citizens, approach the end of a most rewarding and personally satisfying
Junior High School career, we feel both happiness and regrets--
Happiness, for being allowed to share in a newer perspective of learning at High School, and regrets, in leaving behind a school where many memorable events have taken place, and where such understanding teachers have given us so much of learning and the dignity of learning.
So, it is with deep gratitude we say farewell to a school we will never forget--our Gilbert Paterson Junior High.This Yearbook is dedicated to our friend and benefactor, Mr. Gilbert Paterson, Q. C.
'lTC THE STUDENT BODY OF 1956-57
You are about to finish another year of your school lire.
It is my sincere hope that this school year has been a successful one to you in many ways. I hope that you have made some orogress in learning, that you have gained greater ability to use your knowledge and that you have had a happy and enjoyable time in doing this.
Here are a few thoughts I would like to leave with you. Education is a never-ending process. You must continue to learn as long as you live.
"Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act, that each to-morrow Brings us farther than to-day".
The world you live in is constantly changing. If you wi4h to succeed, you must change - you must be able to adapt yourself to your changing environment.
Take a certain measure of care in your choice of friends. "True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and choice".
You should try to overcome your own faults, and you will have less time to criticize the faults of others.
Remember that your conduct is about three-fourths of your life and its largest concern.
You should endeavor to be true to yourself - to your sense of right and wrong. Mark Twain once said, "Truth is the most valuable thing we have. Let us economize it".
If in some way you would endeavor to follow the above things, I am sure that you would be successful in life; you would have the respect and esteem of those with whom you come in contact; and above all, you would have an inner feeling of self-respect and well-being.JUNIOR HIGH STAFF

GILBERT PATERSON HOMS & SCHOOL ^SOCIATICN
i
At the end of the second year of operation, the Gilbert Paterson Home and School Association feels that some progress has been made in being of service to the School, the parents and the students. The Grade IX Graduation Banquet was again sponsored by the Home & School, and a substantial start was made on a dinner set for the school. Home & School Scholarships were set up, through which we hope to encourage more of the students to higher academic standars. A most interesting art display cf Jeffrie’s Historical drawings was brought to the school for a week and was used by a majority of the students.
V/e hope each year to increase our activities and become of more value to the School and the Community.

We held four other successful dances, The Opening Dance,
The Christmas Dance, The Valentine Dance, and the Easter Bunny Hop.
The students' Union took part in the fund drive for Hungarian
Relief.
We conducted again a Turkey Raffle which netted a substantial sum of money for the treasury.
V'e purchased for the Year Book Staff a flash camera to take candid shots for the 56-57 edition of the yearbook.
We decided to purchase for the school a tape recorder to be used in our class rooms.
We instituted for the first time "The Color Day" at which time we presented awards to meriting students.
At the scholarship presentation were included our Student Union prizes for academic achievement.
We purchased a House Trophy won most consecutively by House Alpha this year.
We held a series of Lits, the Grade Seven Spelling Bee, the Grade Eight Quiz Contest, and for the first time, the Grade Nine Interhouse Debates.
We hope that we have served you well and that you found this year one of the best years in your school life.

The Purge of 209
This is the school. In this school are three hundred pupils. Some are good, some are bad. 3ut they have one thing in common. They're here to learnl That's where I come in. I’m a teacher.
It's ten to nine, the students are beginning to come in. I study them carefully looking for concealed weapons. In the meantime a fellow teacher is already at work. Elgin 'Veils, Wes Stefan, Cathy Hay, Jack Downie, and Lorraine Lyons are picked up on a 612, loitering in the halls.
Nine o'clock. Everything is quiet. I open the book and begin to read. Cut of the- corner of my eye I see several doing last nights homework. They have a worried expression. We've caught them off guard for once. It looks like a nice morning.
Nine o five. The bell rings and the students move. The
minute they are out of the room I gt> to work. Hob Adams, Gary
Douglas, John Hold and Bill Leedam are picked up on a 480. They were firing spitballs at the students from 210. They'll get the blackboard for that.
Nine o Nine. The students are in social, Lorallee Hall, and
Carol Patey are caught in 8101, note passing. V.f. Aoki is really
on the ball. He is ready for any trick as he deposits pearlly words of wisdom into their minds.
The class moves. Eda Seaman is picked up on a 113740, a very serious charge. Obstructing traffic.
They're in math. Pred Anderson, Brian McKelgunn and Sylvia Stevens are booked on a 1150. Math homework not done. They'll get hard labour for that!
Class again moves. Larry Ogden is picked up on a 680. He held his books so high that falling objects became dangerous to some of the smaller teachers.
Class moves to typing. Garden Bennett and Lyn Vright are booked on £ 650 and 430, flying planes which have not been approved by CCA and flying without a pilots license respectively.
Class moves, Cynthia Lambert, and Hose Lepp are picked up on a 319 gum chewing.Literature class, I get Judy Rhamey, Donna Workman and Mildred Spencer on a 207. Everyone knows thats Tor talking. Arlene Williams is trooped on an 810 for note nassing, as I strive to enlighten the Dupils on the matter of literature.
The bell rings. As they leave Beatrice Lewis and Olga Bankonin are nicked up on general principals. They haven't done anything yet which makes us suspicious.
1 get out my file and go merrily to work on my bicuspids as the students leave. From the looks we are poor misunderstood teachers, yet you would think we weren't humans.
The ideas expressed here are not necessarily the ideas of the student bodyl They are merely the ideas of the minor majority called 209.
In conclusion I would like to thank Miss Toole of the yearbook staff who, by the time you read this, has undoubtedly censored half of this, the School Board, who supplied ink and paper, and Beatrice Lewis without whose constant reminders of the delivery date I could not have possibly gotten this done.
Yours truly,
Elgin ’.Veils.

Isabel Archer\u27s Delicious Pain : Charting Lacanian Desire in The Portrait of a Lady
No full textThis essay offers a reading of Henry James\u27s Portrait of a Lady that examines Isabel Archer\u27s choices through a Lacanian lens. This reading traces Isabel\u27s consistent turning away from, even against, the very postulates she claims to live by. Isabel’s discovery of love through the ideal image of herself she finds mirrored in Gilbert Osmond’s gaze leads to a reversal of her most noble impulses. Her choice of a suitor also points to something that would seem the opposite of desire, but which is, in fact, its foundation. In choosing Gilbert Osmond, Isabel seeks to experience, however unconsciously, what Jacques Lacan defines as jouissance, or “painful pleasure

The Unveiling of Isabel Archer\u27s True Character through Art
No full textHenry James’s 1881 novel The Portrait of a Lady follows Isabel Archer, a young, curious woman who moves to Europe in hopes of forging her own life. Here, Isabel meets many people who own art collections and discovers the importance of art, believing that it aligns with her ideas. But what Isabel fails to recognize and accept is how she is reflected in art, as well as how both the people around her and James perceive her as a portrait. In this essay, I argue that art shapes Isabel Archer’s character because it reveals who she is supposed to be: a woman bound to society. Through the use of paintings, architecture, and cities, it becomes evident that the features of these art forms reveal Isabel’s intended identity. This is furthered through characters such as Madame Merle and Gilbert Osmond using art as a way to push her to become a woman of the Old World because they want to maintain their traditional standards, neither realizing nor caring that Isabel’s happiness must pay the price for this. Isabel, however, is given multiple opportunities to break away from her intended identity by the reappearance of Caspar Goodwood and her New World traits because she is so much more than what art reveals her to be and is an independent and compassionate woman. But in the end, Isabel willingly chooses her intended identity because, as James’s establishes in the novel’s title, all she could ever be is a portrait of a lady
