In my own fashion : the life history of Joyce Leininger
No full texttextThe social, religious, and political struggles of Joyce Leininger, a
woman who was born without hands and with legs that extended just below
her knees. Joyce led an extremely successful and productive life despite all of
the barriers put in her way by society’s negative view of her physical
difference. Joyce became a teacher, wife, and mother of three children.
Joyce’s youngest child is the author of Joyce’s life history and the experiences
of all Joyce's children, in relationship to how society treated them and their
mother because of her physical condition.Curriculum and Instructio

Joyce, Michael; 1989-10-03
No full textBiography: Michael Joyce (born 1945) is a professor of English at Vassar College, New York, US. He is also an important author and critic of electronic literature.
Joyce\u27s afternoon, a story, 1987, was among the first literary works of hypertext fiction to present itself as undeniably serious literature, and experimented with the short-story form in novel ways. It was created with the then-new Storyspace software, deployed the ambiguity and dubious narrator characteristic of high modernism, along with some suspense and romance elements, in a story whose meaning could change dramatically depending on the path taken through its lexias on each reading. For instance, a hard-to-find series of lexias presented a new set of facts about the narrator\u27s actions which affects the reader\u27s judgment of the narrator. In The New York Times, Robert Coover called afternoon the granddaddy of hypertext fictions , while The Toronto Globe and Mail said that it is to the hypertext interactive novel what the Gutenberg bible is to publishing. His Twilight, A Symphony (1996) was his second hypertext novel.
Joyce\u27s published books include War outside Ireland: a novel (1982), Of two minds: hypertext pedagogy and poetics (1995), Othermindedness: the emergence of network culture (2000), Moral tales and meditations: technological parables and refractions (2001) and Foucault, in Winter, in the Linnaeus Garden (2015). He is a graduate of the Iowa Writers Workshop. He has been a Professor of English and Media Studies at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie.
Joyce has collaborated with Los Angeles-based visual artist Alexandra Grant. The work Grant has made based on his texts ( The Ladder Quartet and the Six Portals ) has been exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles and Honor Fraser Gallery in Los Angeles.

The treatment of family life and relationships in the works of James Joyce from Dubliners to Ulysses
No full textPhDJoyce's treatment of family life and relationships reveals
both a continuing concern with many of the same themes and a
distinctive development from Dubliners to Ulysses. Throughout
the works he is concerned with such matters as the nature of
blood links, the tension between the needs of the individual
and the needs of the family, and the quality of human affection,
filial, parental, and sexual. While the early works, Dubliners,
Stephen Hero, and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man,
present the family as a social institution of some importance,
Ulysses shows it to be associated with universal principles of
prime importance. Moreover, while the first three works present
a largely unfavourable and somewhat restricted view of family
life, Exiles and Ulysses develop extensively both the fundamental
value of family relationships and the complexities of
emotion and motive inherent in them.
The early concern with the limitations of family life
corresponds to similar concerns in contemporary writers whom
Joyce admired, Joyce's declared intentions in writing his own
works, and his somewhat unhappy experiences with his own family.
The shift to a more favourable and more complex view of family
life in the later works corresponds to his evident maturation
and to his increased recognition of the value of his own family
life. Thus Joyce's treatment of family life and relationships
is central to his development as man and artist.
While many critics have noted that the family is indeed
important in Joyce's works, none has examined the subject systematically
or treated many of the matters considered in this

Lectures on Calabi-Yau and special Lagrangian geometry
No full textThis paper gives a leisurely introduction to Calabi-Yau manifolds and special Lagrangian submanifolds from the differential geometric point of view, followed by a survey of recent results on singularities of special Lagrangian submanifolds, and their application to the SYZ Conjecture. It is aimed at graduate students in Geometry, String Theorists, and others wishing to learn the subject, and is designed to be fairly self-contained. It is based on lecture courses given at Nordfjordeid, Norway and MSRI, Berkeley in June and July 2001. We introduce Calabi-Yau m-folds via holonomy groups, Kahler geometry and the Calabi Conjecture, and special Lagrangian m-folds via calibrated geometry. `Almost Calabi-Yau m-folds' (a generalization of Calabi-Yau m-folds useful in special Lagrangian geometry) are explained and the deformation theory and moduli spaces of compact special Lagrangian submanifolds in (almost) Calabi-Yau m-folds is described. In the final part we consider isolated singularities of special Lagrangian m-folds, focussing mainly on singularities locally modelled on cones, and the expected behaviour of singularities of compact special Lagrangian m-folds in generic (almost) Calabi-Yau m-folds. String Theory, Mirror Symmetry and the SYZ Conjecture are briefly discussed, and some results of the author on singularities of special Lagrangian fibrations of Calabi-Yau 3-folds are described
