Moore Treehouse in East Bradenton
No full textThis tree house was built in 1924 by Dr. E.E. Moore of Manatee. The treehouse had running water, electricity, and gas. It was located on the south side of 3rd Ave East between 16th and 17th Streets in a residential area. The tree house and adjacent banyan tree, both a product of Dr. Moore's time at the property, became local landmarks and a tourist attraction for several decades. In the 1970s, the tree house was condemned and demolished by the city, citing it as a hazard. Today the oak tree can still be found at this location
Marianne Moore papers
No full textPrize-winning poet and editor Marianne Moore (1887-1972) was born outside St. Louis, Missouri. Moore graduated from Bryn Mawr College in 1909 and went on to teach at Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, for the next four years. She and her mother eventually settled in New York City in 1919 where she remained until her death. She published many volumes of poetry as well as reviews and essays and was a great friend of and benefactor to other poets. In addition to her own work, she edited the arts and culture magazine The Dial from 1925 to 1929; Moore also won the Dial Award in 1924, one of eight grants given to contributers between 1921 and 1928. Other winners included Sherwood Anderson, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound and e.e. cummings. Her book Collected Poems (1951) earned her a Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Bollingen Prize in 1952. This collection includes a typed manuscript of Marianne Moore: A Descriptive Bibliography (1977) by Craig Abbott and a copy of the limited edition chapbook Silence (1965?). It also contains a few items of Moore correspondence, proofs, and ephemera

No full textEdward Estlin e. e. Cummings (October 14, 1894 – September 3, 1962), often styled as e e cummings, as he sometimes signed his name, was an American poet, painter, essayist, author, and playwright. He wrote approximately 2900 poems, two autobiographical novels, four plays, and several essays. This undated recording captures cummings during his visit to Eastern Michigan University. There is no commentary between poems.https://commons.emich.edu/performances/1016/thumbnail.jp

The Modern Turn: From Moore to Duncan
No full textThe following poems form the third section of an extended sequence written in tribute to and as an exploration of a diverse range of American poets in history-from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twenty-first century-including here the poets Marianne Moore (1887-1972), Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962), T.S. Eliot (1888-1965), E.E. Cummings (1894-1962), Hart Crane (1899-1932), Stanley Kunitz (1905-2006), Theodore Roethke (1908-1963), Elizabeth Bishop (1911-1979), William Everson (1912-1994), John Berryman (1914-1972), Robert Lowell (1917-1977), and Robert Duncan (1919-1988). Of the poems, some describe or are inspired by a poet's life or work, others directly address a poet, still others speak in the voice of a poet. It is hoped that they will shed light on and stimulate an interest in American poetry
The application of the selected elements of E.E. Gordon’s Theory of Music Learning in Kazimierz Wielki University students own research in Bydgoszcz
No full textTheory of music learning, according to Gordon, is mostly directed at teachers. The text aims at showing the aspect of the application of research on E. E. Gordon’s theory into early music education teacher’s professional training. The author recognises the importance of shaping research competences of future teachers as they help students use not only practical (pedagogical), but also methodological and empirical work of E.E. Gordon’s theory. The text presents the reports from research on the application of E.E. Gordon’s Theory of Music Learning, carried out by students of early school and music education. It is important to emphasise the fact that research has been conducted according to Gordon’s procedures. Researching the application of theory of music learning refers to its selected elements within the range of application of research problems, theoretical implications and selected diagnostics solutions in music education (also E.E. Gordon’s tools). The main idea of the text revolves around more and more popular aspect of making university and teachers training relations very practical (both formal and informal). Such expectations are taken into consideration in Muzopolis project described in this text. Muzopolis from its begining has been the field of practical and empirical application of the elements of E.E. Gordon’s theory with the use of staff and student team cooperating in the Faculty of Pedagogy and Music environmen
Cielesność i ciało w E.E. Olgi Tokarczuk
No full textOlga Tokarczuk’s novel E.E. apart from the fact that it is the story of a 15-year-old girl with mediumistic abilities and her family is also affacted by the issue of corporeality. Especially inspiring, valuable cognitively and imoprtant from a perspective of this article seem to be the corporeality presentation of two main characters – Erna Eltzner and her mother. This article containing an in-deph reflection on the issue of corporeality of Olga Tokarczuk’s novel. The aim of the work is to analyze and interpret showed by Tokarczuk images of corporeality related to psychic and personality domain of the main characters. The main thesis is the assumption that corporeality is essential for the novel about the fate of Erna Eltzner. The aim is to look and subject the interpretation of the presented by Tokarczuk depiction of corporeality, capturing its function, reflection on the cosequences of the used way of imagery as well as to analyze what is the connection between the corporeality of the main character and gaining by her identity and independence. The methodology adopted in the project is based on the elements of Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s theory as well as the conception of somatopoetics by Anna Łebkowska. The essay’s author on the basis of somatopoetics theory brings us closer the functioning of the body as an interpretive category not just as a subject of literaturę, as well as using the tools created by somatopoetics examines various aspects of the manifestation of the category of corporeality in the novel
Borehole image analysis of the Nankai accretionary wedge, ODP Leg 196: structural and stress studies
No full textElectrical images recorded with Resistivity-At-Bit (RAB) from two sites drilled during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 196 were analyzed to study the effects of subduction at the Nankai margin. For the first time in the history of scientific deep-sea drilling in ODP, in situ complete borehole images of the décollement zone were obtained. Analyses of all drilling-induced fracture data indicated that the maximum horizontal compressive stress (SHmax) axes have an azimuth of 303°, and analyses of breakout data from RAB images indicated an azimuth of 310°. These azimuths approximate the convergence direction of the Philippine Sea plate towards the Eurasian plate. The frontal thrust at Site 808 was encountered at about 389 mbsf. Density, porosity, resistivity, and gamma ray data change across the frontal thrust. The décollement zone at the deformation front was identified between 937 and 965 mbsf. The base of the décollement is sharply defined as the maximum extent of conductive fracturing and is marked by abrupt changes in physical properties [Mikada, H., Becker, K., Moore, J.C., Klaus, A., Austin, G.L., Bangs, N.L., Bourlange, S., Broilliard, J., Brückmann, W., Corn, E.R., Davis, E.E., Flemings, P.B., Goldberg, D.B., Gulick, S.S., Hansen, M.B., Hayward, N., Hills, D.J., Hunze, S., Ienaga, M., Ishiguro, H., Kinoshita, M., Macdonald, R.D., McNeill, L., Obana, S., Hong, O.S., Peacock, S., Pettigrew, T.L., Saito, S., Sawa, T., Thaiprasert, N., Tobin, H.J., Tsurumi, H., 2002. Proc. ODP, Initial Rep., 196, College Station, TX, (Ocean Drilling Program)]. The upper boundary of the décollement is marked by several sets of conductive fractures and by high variability in physical properties. The décollement zone is characterized by intense brittle fracturing. These fractures are considered to be the consequence of cyclic stresses and high fluid pressures in this zone. We analyzed fracture dips and their orientations at both sites and found that they are all consistent with a unique stress field model surrounding the two sites.<br/
