    No full text
    Membaca autobiografi adalah membaca suatu peristiwa, memori dan kenangan yang dituliskan oleh pengarang tentang dirinya sendiri. Persitiwa- peristiwa tersebut lebih banyak mengabarkan tentang sebuah kebenaran subjektif daripada fakta yang sebenarnya. Itu dikarenakan pengarang sebagai subjek yang membaca masa lalunya menjadi tokoh utama dalam autobiografi. Hal ini dapat dikaji dan dibuktikan melalui beberapa aspek di dalam autobiografi. Ruang lingkup dari tulisan ini adalah bagaimana narrator dalam menarasikan cerita dapat membangun wacana dan berbicara langsung dengan narratee. Pengalaman- pengalaman yang diceritakan oleh narrator, identitas yang ditampilkan dan juga peran editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi. Adapun tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mengimplementasikan teori Reading Autobiography yang digunakan untuk menganalisis The Story of My Life yang merupakan autobiografi dari Helen Keller. Metode yang digunakan dalam tulisan ini adalah metode penelitian kepustakaan dan metode pendekatan teori membaca autobiografi. Metode yang pertama digunakan untuk mengumpul data dan informasi dari sumber-sumber kepustakaan yang mendukung pembahasan. Metode yang kedua digunakan sebagai acuan utama dalam menganalisis aspek yang dominan dalam autobiografi. Hasil dari analisis menunjukkan bahwa teknik penceritaan yang digunakan oleh pengarang sangat mengesankan, baik dalam segi penceritaan “aku”, ideologi maupun konsep yang dimiliki banyak memproyeksikan tokoh sebagai tokoh yang sempurna secara fisik. Begitu juga pengalaman yang dialami tokoh sengaja dipilihkan pengalaman yang istimewa Selain itu, identitas yang ditampilkan oleh pengarang bertujuan mengkonstruksikan kesan dirinya seabagai pribadi yang baik kepada pembaca. Di samping itu, adanya peran John Macy sebagai editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi adalah untuk kepentingan sosial. Hal ini dikarenakan John Macy membantu memproyeksikan Helen Keller sebagai tokoh utama yang hampir sempurna walau dengan keterbatasan fisik. Dia juga mampu membantu Helen dalam mengklarifikasi isu negatif yang berkembang pada masa itu

    Today’s guest is Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld. Mary Helen is an associate professor at Towson University in the Department of Health Sciences. Mary Helen is the author of one of the leading textbooks in the field of long-term care, Dimensions of Long-Term Care: An Introduction, and is a recognized leader in long-term care education nationally. In this podcast I talk with Mary Helen about her journey from an early interest in political science and international affairs to discovering the nascent field of health economics in the 80’s, and her transition to an interest in long-term care as a result of having to care for both her father and father-in-law when they suffered from debilitating terminal illnesses. Mary Helen makes a passionate case for long-term care, pointing out the economic opportunities for entrepreneurs, as well as young people looking for a meaningful and well compensated career.

    Main street revitalization : a case study of Helen, Georgia

    No full text
    The purpose of this thesis was to research the strategy used in Helen, Georgia to revitalize its downtown. In 1969 Helen residents and businessmen developed their Main Street into a major tourist destination by adopting a Bavarian theme. The Main Street approach, initiated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, was used as a basis for comparison with the approach emphasized in Helen. Other revitalization strategies were also used in the comparison. The method of study consisted of personal interviews with those involved with the revitalization of Helen. Research questions included: What was done, who was involved, problems encountered, strategies employed, organizations associated, and actions taken to revitalize Helen. Other details concerning government controls regulating growth, promotion, economic impacts and land use effects derived from tourism, and matters pertaining to Helen\u27s success and its future were also examined. Many similarities were found among the approaches used in Helen and other revitalization strategies. However, major differences concerning organization and design were also evident. The final chapter furnishes recommendations, based on the approach used in Helen, Georgia, for communities considering downtown revitalization. Strong leadership is necessary for Main Street revitalization. Good design can help promote visitation and provide a theme for property owners to follow. Regulations may be needed to insure theme compliance. Good timing, appropriate financial support, a diversity of activities, regional location and necessary infrastructure to support growth are other essential elements for revitalization. Community size on the other hand does not appear to be a significant factor. Downtown revitalization may not happen instantly. Often it is a process characterized by incremental improvements over time, the sum total of which can equal large scale change
