    Holograph letter from 'K.' [P.J. Keohane], Dublin, to 'a chara dhil' (Hagan), having had news from Galway that 'O'D' [Bishop O'Dea] is 'an enthusiastic admirer' [of Hagan]; expressing satisfaction since 'Galway' will have a big influence with 'Tuam'. Reporting that Fr. Martin Comey, an army chaplain, and Ryan of Thurles are other candidates in the field. Hoping to tell both [the Archbishop and Bishop of] Cashel and Killala 'some home truths'. Then commenting on the reversal of roles between the volunteers and the police; the daring of the former is becoming a serious problem and a company of soldiers no longer strikes terror into the youth. Finally remarking that 'friend Murray is done with Rome' since 'his friends there were not pleased with his activities'

    Jack Alive / Martin Dead : The Location of the "Author" in Jack London\u27s Martin Eden

    No full text
    This essay is an attempt to read Martin Eden, Jack Londonʼs autobiographical novel, in terms of the inextricable relationship between the author and the protagonist. Critics have often taken the unbalanced plot and the lack of ironic distance between narrator and character in Martin Eden as the technical weakness of London, but this paper argues that the achievement of this novel owes a great deal to the attachment of London to Martin. The unbalanced structure is a necessary product of the severe struggle of the author to kill his romantic alter ego. // Martin, who aspires to win Ruth Morse, tries to cross class boundaries by making a career of a writer. Even after realizing the emptiness of Ruth, who turns out to be nothing but a typical figure of the bourgeoisie, he somehow persists in loving her. The notion underlying here is that, for Martin, love, career and art are fundamentally inseparable. He objects to the aestheteʼs view of Brissenden on account of his separation of art from career. Martinʼs identity and life consist only in the triunity of love/career/art; the alternative is the repudiation of life. Thus, the unnatural delay of his disappointment in love can be regarded as Londonʼs strategy to set the suicide of Martin as the necessary consequence of the story. // By finishing the story and killing Martin, London finally detaches himself from Martin, reconstructs his self, and, unlike Martin, survives as a professional writer. In this sense, Martin Eden is a story about “writerʼs self-reconstruction.

    Who am I and what am I doing? Becoming a qualitative research interviewer

    No full text
    Qualitative research can be influenced by the researcher's role in the study. Here, the authors propose reflexive methodologies as a means by which the processes undertaken by the researcher can be made transparent and used as part of the data. Using this approach, this paper explores the experience of becoming a qualitative research interviewer. It provides an account of dilemmas faced while undertaking a series of semi-structured interviews as part of a discourse analytic study into the practice of clinical supervision in a number of mental health professions

    Experiences Using Large Scale Video Walls for Distance Education

    No full text
    We describe our experiences building and using the Rutgers Videowall, a low-cost telepresence system that has been used teaching 15 courses and colloquia. By relaxing typical spatial telepresence features, such as background continuity, we greatly reduced costs and gained flexibility in the rooms it could be deployed in. The lower costs and room flexibility enabled academic departments to use the wall, in contrast to traditional telepresence systems which remained inaccessible. We found that the Videowall’s spatial distortions did not have a significant impact on useability, as our initial survey results show that students had an overall positive experience.Technical report DCS-tr-72
