Interview with Dana L. Roth
No full textAn interview in four sessions, January and February 2014, with longtime Caltech chemistry librarian Dana L. Roth.
Roth received his undergraduate education at Pasadena City College and UCLA (BS in chemistry, 1962). In 1965, he received master’s degrees in chemistry from Caltech and in library science from UCLA; that summer, he became Caltech’s chemistry librarian. After consolidation of Caltech’s division libraries in Millikan Library in 1967, he undertook various administrative responsibilities at Millikan over the years, along with his continuing duties as chemistry librarian. Active in the chemistry division of the Special Libraries Association. In 2008, inducted into the SLA Hall of Fame. That year he also received the Thomas W. Schmitt Staff Prize, presented to a Caltech staff member whose contributions “embody the values and spirit that enable the institute to achieve excellence in research and education.” Retired April 2013.
In this interview he discusses his initial education as a chemist, including his graduate education at Caltech, and his switch to library science. He traces the development of library science in general and at Caltech—from the card-catalog days to the growth of the electronic Caltech Library system and the present state of online access and databases
Visual representation in the work of Joseph Roth, 1923-1932
No full textThrough an examination of Joseph Roth’s reportage and fiction published between 1923 and 1932, this thesis seeks to provide a systematic analysis of a particular aspect of the author’s literary style, namely his use of sharply focused visual representations, which are termed Heuristic Visuals. Close textual analysis, supplemented by insights from reader-response theory, psychology, psycholinguistics and sociology illuminate the function of these visual representations. The thesis also seeks to discover whether there are significant differences and correspondences in the use of visual representations between the reportage and fiction genres. Roth believed that writers should be engagiert, and that the truth could only be arrived at through close observation of reality, not subordinated to theory. The research analyses the techniques by which Roth challenges his readers and encourages them to discover the truth for themselves. Three basic variants of Heuristic Visuals are identified, and their use in different contexts, including that of dialectical presentations, is explored. There is evidence of the use of different variants of Heuristic Visuals according to the respective rhetorical demands of particular thematic issues. It has also been possible to establish synchronic correspondences between the different genres, and diachronic correspondences within genres. Although there are examples within the reportage where the entire article is based on an Heuristic Visual, the use of Heuristic Visuals cannot be seen as a key organizing principle in Roth’s work as a whole. As his mastery of the technique reaches its highest point in the early 1930s, Heuristic Visuals are often incorporated into the reconstruction of a complete sensory experience. Analysis of Roth’s heuristic use of visual representations has led to important insights, including a reinterpretation of the endings of Roth’s two most famous novels: Hiob and Radetzkymarsch
Space Shaping Ethnic Identity – the Jewish Newark in the Novels of Philip Roth
No full textOn the basis of two novels by Philip Roth, American Pastoral (1997) and The Plot Against America (2004), the author follows the way the neighborhood of the narrators’ formation affects the shaping of their ethnic identity. Its residents have few qualities determining Jewishness. The characters are not religious and their only language is English.

No full textWhen Wolff-Michael Roth sent me the first proposal of this book Transactional Psychology of Education. Toward a strong version of the social I was positively surprised. Little time had passed since he had published his previous volume in my series, titled Understanding Educational Psychology (Roth & Jornet, 2016). He was again ready with another interesting editorial project. The book “smelled” good even before reading it. In fact, after reading few lines of the proposal, I was fully convinced of the relevance of Roth’s line of argumentation. There was something intriguing. Hereafter, the book went through all the long procedures of double-blind review, which allows this book series to be indexed in Scopus. Roth received many good feedbacks and some criticisms that helped him to develop his ideas even further.
The volume, eventually ready, kept the initial promise and offers the reader a refined synthesis of theoretical and empirical aspects of inquiry into education. Transactional Psychology of Education indeed combines the historical roots with the contemporary educational practice
