Shaw and Feminisms On Stage and Off
No full textWhen offstage actions contradict a playwright's onstage message, literary study gets messy. In his personal relationships, George Bernard Shaw was often ambivalent toward liberated women--surprisingly so, considering his reputation as one of the first champions of women's rights. His private attitudes sit uncomfortably beside his public philosophies that were so foundational to first-wave feminism. Here, Shaw's long-recognized influence on feminism is reexamined through the lens of twenty-first-century feminist thought as well as previously unpublished primary sources. New links appear between Shaw's writings and his gendered notions of physicality, pain, performance, nationalism, authorship, and politics. The book's archival material includes previously unpublished Shaw correspondence and excerpts from the works of his feminist playwright contemporaries. Shaw and Feminisms explores Shaw's strong female characters, his real-life involvement with women, and his continuing impact on theater and politics today.Cover -- Contents -- Foreword -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- PART I.

Hele-Shaw Flow Near Cusp Singularities
No full textThis thesis discusses the radial version of the Hele-Shaw problem. Different from the channel version, traveling-wave solutions do not exist in this version. Under algebraic potentials, in the case that the droplets expand, in finite time, cusps will appear on the boundary and classical solutions may not exist afterwards. Physicists have suggested that for (2p+1,2)-cusps, that near cusp singularities of Hele-Shaw flow, after scaling X, Y by some powers of time t respectively, the main part of Y(X, t) is a one-parameter family and does not depend on time t. They have also suggested that the solutions of the Hele-Shaw problem are connected with dispersionless KdV (dKdV) hierarchy. In this study, we rigorously proved that this is the case for (3,2)-cusps when the droplets are simply connected and the external potentials are algebraic. We gave exact solutions and showed that the main parts of the exact solutions are some special solutions of the dispersionless string equation. More over, borrowed from the physical paper\cite{Teo} with a little more details, we showed the arguments of how these special solutions are related to dKdV hierarchy
Creative Process, Material Inscription and Dudley Shaw Ashton's Figures in a Landscape (1953)
No full textDudley Shaw Ashton’s flamboyant 1953 portrait of the sculptor Barbara Hepworth, Figures in a Landscape, quite literally lifts Hepworth and her sculptures from the spaces of critical reception and creative process associated to the museum, gallery or studio, to audaciously place the artist and her work in the Cornish landscape amongst its beaches, megalithic standing stones and tin mines. This chapter explores how Shaw Ashton’s use of film technology to explore scale, distance and proximity between artist, sculpture and the contours of the landscape, proposed ways of depicting the artist and the creative process on film which were at odds with contemporary art documentaries of the immediate post war period. Reinforced further through the accompanying narration scripted by the archeologist Jacquetta Hawkes, Shaw Ashton seeks instead to inscribe Hepworth’s creative process within a pre-modern landscape and to present the artist and her sculptures as the embodiment of a materially located mythic and historic continuity. Made shortly after the 1951 Festival of Britain, and funded by the British Film Institute’s Experimental Film Fund, was Shaw Ashton’s disavowal of Hepworth’s modernist credentials reflective of a transitional and short lived moment in Britain’s post war culture? When an historical turn might be seen to presage new ways forward in cultural representation

The Family of Francis Marion Shaw Newsletter Volume 28 Number 1
No full textThis item contains 1 PDF with 4 pages in addition to 4 JP2sThis document provides a detailed account of the author's decades-long genealogical journey to trace his paternal Shaw family roots. The primary focus has been on the descendants of Francis Marion Shaw and Rachel Moore Allen Shaw, eventually delving into the more distant and elusive origins of Jeremiah Shaw, Sr., his earliest known American ancestor. The article highlights that while legends and earlier research by Col. Milton D. Weeks pointed to South Carolina as their birthplace, potentially linking them to John Shaw or John Shaurer, definitive proof was lacking. Critically, recent Y-DNA research, spearheaded by Tom Shaw, Jr., has scientifically confirmed paternal links among Jeremiah Shaw, Sr.'s descendants and, importantly, disproven erroneous claims of his Revolutionary War service or connections to certain John Shaw lines. This Y-DNA analysis has also suggested a likely Irish ancestral connection to the Shea or O'Shea family from County Kerry, indicating that the Shaw name may have originated from this Gaelic name prior to their arrival in America
Measurement of the mass difference m(D-s(+))-m(D+) at CDF II
No full textWe present a measurement of the mass difference m(D-s(+))-m(D+), where both the D-s(+) and D+ are reconstructed in the phipi(+) decay channel. This measurement uses 11.6 pb(-1) of data collected by CDF II using the new displaced-track trigger. The mass difference is found to be m(D-s(+))-m(D+)=99.41+/-0.38(stat)+/-0.21(syst) MeV/c(2)
