Sixty Years of Community: St. Olaf Catholic Parish in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, 1952-2012
Get PDFThis paper will explore how the parish community of St. Olaf in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, established in 1952, reflects the Roman Catholic Church, specifically at the local, state, and national levels in the United States. It will also discuss the various changes that have occurred in the past 60 years of its history in terms of the various locations of worship for the members, the growth of the community outreach programs, and the effects of the Second Vatican Council. This ecumenical council was a meeting of Catholic bishops from around the whole that brought reform to the Catholic Church and affected the relationship of the Catholic Church to the world. The parish at St. Olaf has grown from having only 125 families in 1952 to over 1,000 families in 2012
Transient observations : the textualizing of St Helena through five hundred years of colonial discourse
No full textThis thesis explores the textualizing of the South Atlantic island of St Helena (a
British Overseas Territory) through an analysis of the relationship between
colonizing practices and the changing representations of the island and its
inhabitants in a range of colonial 'texts', including historiography, travel writing,
government papers, creative writing, and the fine arts.
Part I situates this thesis within a critical engagement with post-colonial
theory and colonial discourse analysis primarily, as well as with the recent
'linguistic turn' in anthropology and history. In place of post-colonialism's rather
monolithic approach to colonial experiences, I argue for a localised approach to
colonisation, which takes greater account of colonial praxis and of the continuous
re-negotiation and re-constitution of particular colonial situations.
Part II focuses on a number of literary issues by reviewing St Helena's
historiography and literature, and by investigating the range of narrative tropes
employed (largely by travellers) in the textualizing of St Helena, in particular
with respect to recurrent imaginings of the island in terms of an earthly Eden.
Part III examines the nature of colonial 'possession' by tracing the island's
gradual appropriation by the Portuguese, Dutch and English in the sixteenth and
early seventeenth century and the settlement policies pursued by the English
East India Company in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century.
Part IV provides an account of the changing perceptions, by visitors and
colonial officials alike, of the character of the island's inhabitants (from the late
eighteenth to the early twentieth century) and assesses the influence that these
perceptions have had on the administration of the island and the political status of
its inhabitants (in the mid- to late twentieth century).
Part V, the conclusion, reviews the principal arguments of my thesis by
addressing the political implications of post-colonial theory and of my own
research, while also indicating avenues for further research.
A localised and detailed exploration of colonial discourse over a period of
nearly five hundred years, and a close analysis of a consequently wide range of
colonial 'texts', has confirmed that although colonising practices and
representations are far from monolithic, in the case of St Helena their continuities
are of as much significance as their discontinuities

Surface conducting particles by oxidative copolymerization of pyrrole pendant groups and pyrrole in emulsion
No full textPoly(styrene-co-(p-vinylbenzyl 4-(3-pyrrolyl)-4-oxobutyrate)) (PSt-VBPOB) containing 16.7 mol% of p-vinylbenzyl 4-(3-pyrrolyl)-4-oxobutyrate (VBPOB) was synthesized by emulsion polymerization, Pyrrole was coupled onto pyrrole moiety of PSt-VBPOB via oxidative polymerization using FeCl3 as a catalyst. Two kinds of conducting polymers, PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (S) and PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (E), were prepared. PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (S) was prepared in THF solution. On the other hand, PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (E) was obtained in the emulsion. The conductivity of PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (E) (1.590 S/cm) was much higher than that of PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (S) (0.022 S/cm). The mechanisms of electrical conductivity enhancement in PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (E) is proposed. In the PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (S) particles, polypyrrole was uniformly distributed throughout the particles. On the other hand, polypyrrole links are mainly located on the surface of the PSt-VBPOB-ox-Py (E) particles, giving surface conducting particles
Soluble polystyrenes with pyrrole pendant groups and their electroactive properties
No full textFour soluble styrenic polymers containing 3-substituted pendant pyrrole rings with ester or amide arm spacer were synthesized. Their electroactive characteristics were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The chemical oxidation was accomplished by adding FeCl3 into a solution of styrenic polymers dissolved in 1:1 mixture of dimethylformamide (DMF) and acetonitrile (ACN). The electrical conductivities of the chemically oxidized black powder of the styrenic polymers were in the range of 10(-10)similar to 10(-9) S/cm

The History of the Medieval Papacy at the Imperial St. Petersburg University
Get PDFThe purpose of this article is to investigate the history and content of scholarly studies devoted to the history of the medieval papacy at St. Petersburg University of pre-revolutionary times. The tasks of the article include both the study of historiographical sources, and a survey of disciplines related to the history of the medieval papacy taught at the Faculty of History and Philology of the University in 1819–1917. The author draws attention to the fact that this subject of educational courses and scholarly research for a long time remained “unpopular” among St. Petersburg medievalists. However, a real outline of university research in the field of “papal history” in historiography still hasn’t been done. The main way to identify the required courses of historical and ecclesiastical nature was to analyze university editions known as “The Announcements of Public Teaching of Sciences” and “Surveys of the Teaching of Sciences at the Imperial St. Petersburg / Petrograd University” and now accessible to a wide audience thanks to the portal “History St. Petersburg University in Virtual Space”. The author also refers to the materials collected during the biographical and prosopographical studies of the Center for History of St. Petersburg State University and concentrated in a number of network dictionaries (“The Network Biographical Dictionary of Professors and Teachers of St. Petersburg University” etc). On the basis of the data obtained, the author draws a conclusion about the extent to which the pre-revolutionary university research in the field of the history of the Holy See was developed and promising in reality.This research was supported by RFBR (Russian Foundation for Basic Research), project No. 16-06-00528 “Petersburg Historical School (XVIII — beginning of the XX century): Biographical database and information resource”
