Transient observations : the textualizing of St Helena through five hundred years of colonial discourse
No full textThis thesis explores the textualizing of the South Atlantic island of St Helena (a
British Overseas Territory) through an analysis of the relationship between
colonizing practices and the changing representations of the island and its
inhabitants in a range of colonial 'texts', including historiography, travel writing,
government papers, creative writing, and the fine arts.
Part I situates this thesis within a critical engagement with post-colonial
theory and colonial discourse analysis primarily, as well as with the recent
'linguistic turn' in anthropology and history. In place of post-colonialism's rather
monolithic approach to colonial experiences, I argue for a localised approach to
colonisation, which takes greater account of colonial praxis and of the continuous
re-negotiation and re-constitution of particular colonial situations.
Part II focuses on a number of literary issues by reviewing St Helena's
historiography and literature, and by investigating the range of narrative tropes
employed (largely by travellers) in the textualizing of St Helena, in particular
with respect to recurrent imaginings of the island in terms of an earthly Eden.
Part III examines the nature of colonial 'possession' by tracing the island's
gradual appropriation by the Portuguese, Dutch and English in the sixteenth and
early seventeenth century and the settlement policies pursued by the English
East India Company in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century.
Part IV provides an account of the changing perceptions, by visitors and
colonial officials alike, of the character of the island's inhabitants (from the late
eighteenth to the early twentieth century) and assesses the influence that these
perceptions have had on the administration of the island and the political status of
its inhabitants (in the mid- to late twentieth century).
Part V, the conclusion, reviews the principal arguments of my thesis by
addressing the political implications of post-colonial theory and of my own
research, while also indicating avenues for further research.
A localised and detailed exploration of colonial discourse over a period of
nearly five hundred years, and a close analysis of a consequently wide range of
colonial 'texts', has confirmed that although colonising practices and
representations are far from monolithic, in the case of St Helena their continuities
are of as much significance as their discontinuities
Sept concepts attribués à Siméon-Denis Poisson
No full textThe French mathematician, geometer and physicist Siméon-Denis Poisson (1781–1840) touched on many
branches of mathematics and physics in the course of his illustrious career as professor of mechanics at the
Faculté des sciences de Paris and member of the Académie des Sciences, leaving behind him an immense
body of work.
In this short outreach article aimed at the informed reader, mathematician Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach
presents, describes and briefly analyses the contribution of this man of science to seven mathematical
or physical concepts to which his name has remained attached, namely (1) Poisson’s equation, in vector
calculus, which owes its name to a contribution to the theory of electrostatics dating back to 1811–1813;
(2) Poisson’s ratio, in materials science and solid mechanics, which was introduced in a short article
published in the Annales de chimie et de physique in 1827; (3) Poisson spot (also called Arago spot or
Fresnel spot), in optics, which refers to a phenomenon so derisively called because it can be observed in an
experiment suggested by Poisson that was intended to disprove a theory by Augustin Fresnel but instead
corroborates it; (4) Poisson distribution, in probability theory and statistics; (5) Poisson summation
formula in harmonic analysis; (6) Poisson kernel, in potential theory, and the integral formula derived
from it in complex analysis; and (7) Poisson brackets in Hamiltonian mechanics.
As Poisson’s name is thus associated with many concepts that were only fully developed after the death
of the man whose memory they celebrate, the author succinctly recounts the broad outlines of these
conceptual developments, working backwards from secondary sources to the seeds planted by Poisson
himself in primary sources, while also giving a few brief indications of the evolution of terminology

The life and works of Osbert of Clare
No full textOsbert of Clare was an English monastic writer, whose works extended from
the mid-1120s to the mid-1150s. His Latin hagiography reflects a deep admiration for
Anglo-Saxon saints and spirituality, while his letters provide a personal perspective
on his turbulent career. As prior of Westminster Abbey, Osbert of Clare worked to
strengthen the rights and prestige of his monastery. His production of forged or
altered charters makes him one of England's most prolific medieval forgers. At times
his passion for reform put him at odds with his abbots, and he was sent into exile
under both Abbot Herbert (1121-c.1136) and Abbot Gervase (1138-c.1157). Also
Osbert, as one of the first proponents of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, wrote
about the feast, worked to legitimize its celebration, and provided us with the only
significant narration of its introduction to England.
This thesis is divided into two sections. The first section is principally
historical and the second is principally literary. In the first section, I provide an
overview of Osbert of Clare's career and examine in greater detail two of his most
significant undertaking: his promotion of Westminster Abbey and his attempted
canonization of Edward the Confessor. In the second section, I give a philological
study of Osbert Latin style and examine themes that nm throughout his writings, such
as virginity, exile and kingship. Osbert's promotion of the feast of the Immaculate
Conception is included in the second section of the thesis because of its ties to the
themes of virginity and femininity within his writings. There are also two appendices:
the first is a survey of the extant manuscripts of Osbert's writings, and the second is
an edition of Osbert's unpublished Life of St Ethelbert from Gotha,

The rise and fall of a policy rule: monetarism at the St. Louis Fed, 1968-1986
No full textFrom the 1960s to the 1980s, the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis played an important and highly visible role in the development and advocacy of stabilization policy based on the targeting of monetary aggregates. Research conducted at the St. Louis Bank extended earlier monetarist analysis that had focused on the role of money in explaining economic activity in the long run. Their success in finding apparently robust, stable relationships in both long- and short-run data led monetarists to apply long-run propositions to short-run policy questions, effectively competing with alternative views of the time. When the short-run correlation between money and economic activity went astray in the early 1980s, however, the efficacy of the monetarist rule and appeals for targeting monetary aggregates to achieve economic stabilization quickly lost credibility. This article traces the evolution of monetary policy research at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis as it moved from the identification of long-run relationships between money and economic activity toward short-run policy analysis. The authors show how monetarists were lulled into advocating a short-run stabilization policy and argue that this experience councils against overconfidence in our ability to identify infallible rules for conducting short-run stabilization policy in general.Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis ; Research and development

Akram Khan re-writes ‘Radha’: The ‘hypervisible’ cultural identity in Kylie Minogue’s ‘Showgirl’
No full textThis is an Author's Accepted Manuscript of an article published in Women & Performance: A Journal of Feminist Theory, 19(1), 23 - 34, 2009 [copyright Taylor & Francis], available online at: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/07407700802655265.This paper attempts to analyze the British Asian dancer/choreographer Akram Khan's choreography of Samsara for Kylie Minogue's “homecoming” version of the 2006 Showgirl tour as an intellectual commentary on the 1906 American modern dance piece Radha by Ruth St Denis. On the surface Khan's choreography can be seen to reiterate some of the same Orientalist tropes that St Denis was accused of, within a popular “low”-culture context. Acknowledging this trope I scrutinize Khan's key choreographic strategies that challenge the potentially feminist reading of St Denis’ Radha by successfully reinstating the marriage plot within his choreography. More significantly, he makes “hypervisible,” the source culture of Kathak and the body of authority (himself) in the cultural exchange that shapes this choreographic project. Through an analysis of Khan's choreographic endeavor and a reevaluation of the power play between male and female bodies in the space, I wish to extrapolate Khan's intellectual vision within Samsara as an expression and assertion of the place of diasporic identity and cultural exchange within Western popular culture. I frame my paper within the preexistent frameworks from scholars like Sally Banes, Priya Srinivasan, Edward Said, Kobena Mercer, Rustom Bharucha and Philip Auslander

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek To be consoled as to console.
To be understood as to understand To be loved as to love; for
It is in giving that we receive.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are Born to eternal life.
Lord make me an instrument of Thy peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy.PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Deai’ Students,
You are members of the student body of a Catholic school because your parents realize the importance of your Religion now and throughout your future adult life. Oftentimes, faulty training and erroneous thinking have caused many students to gain far less from their Catholic Education than they should have.
If you really understand how important the life of your soul is, then you would do much more than you are doing spiritually. You would assist at Mass frequently and even daily. You would receive the Sacraments of Penance and the Holy Eucharist as often as possible. These Sacraments are necessary for the care of your soul, especially through your years of schooling. We can get by with much less but that doesn't mean that we are looking after our soul adequately. One of the tragic things in life is that we often look upon our religious duties as strictly obligations and not as privileges for serving God. God does not push us. He has left us free to choose. Is our choice always the best?
I am convinced that the self-discipline gained in the devout practise of your Catholic Faith carries over to the discipline necessary for success in your school life no matter what abilities God has given you. The laggard in the practise of his Religion most often is a laggard in his school work.
We hope and pray for a genuine Catholic atmosphere in Saint Francis School. Each of you plays an important role in this and must assume the responsibility to help in creating and maintaining this atmosphere by a devout living of your Faith and by a sincere effort to practise all the Christian virtues.
Those who are leaving Saint Francis at the end of June, are entering a world diametrically opposed to real honest Christian living. Make a sincere effort to show others the way of Christ through good example. Promise yourself that you will always follow the way of Christ without any hesitation.

This year 1962 will be a turning point in the lives of many students. Some will go on to higher education either at university, junior college, or technical school. Still others will venture into the world to find their respective places. To those of us who are graduating, the knowledge gained during these high school years will help to guide us in the future, whether it be in higher education or in the business world.
Graduation day will live forever in the minds and hearts of those graduating. It represents an accomplishment which we have strived for since early youth. We can proudly say that we are graduating with a truly Catholic education which will serve as a firm basis for our life ahead.
On behalf of the Students' Council and myself I would sincerely like to thank all who have helped with the year's activities, especially Mr. Sawicki, our council advisor. Father Gregoire, whose help was greatly appreciated, and indeed, the whole staff for their interest and cooperation on all occasions.
I would also like to thank the student body for its support of the numerous activities we organized during the year. I would like those who are returning to St. Francis to remember that its graduates have done their best to live up to the ideals of our school. The spirit and tradition of St. Francis has become known and accepted and future students should try to maintain this tradition.
To those graduating, I would like to say good luck in whatever the future holds in store for them.

This year's Student Council enjoyed a very successful term in office. The executive consisted of Mike Wakerich, President; Don Swedish, Vice-President; Dennis O'Connell, Treasurer; and Hon Smith, Secretary. Grades 8 to 10 elected room representatives.
Mr. S. Sawicki acted as Student Advisor.
The Council tried hard this year to satisfy the student needs. Bowling was introduced to the students, and was quite a success. During the winter months, hockey was a welcome recreation. The school rented the arena on specific nights so that the students could take advantage of this opportunity.
Lunch time dances called shags were held late in February and became very popular with the high school students. The social activities this year at St. Francis again were handled by the Council. A Halloween Masquerade dance was held in October with a good turnout. On February 16, a Valentine dance was held. Len Erlendson was in attendance. The gym was decorated by members of the Student Council and the Council from St. Joseph's.
The annual Spring Prom was held May 9. The gym was decorated to a South Sea theme. It was well attended by students and parents. Joe Berlando's band, the Hi-Hatters, provided musical entertainment for the evening.
The Council also made sure that the classes presented skits for the assembly period, when they were so requested.
The students, we feel, were satisfied with the work of the Students’ Council this year. The 1961-62 Council wishes success to nest year's Council and is sure that it will do an excellent job for the students.Joe Zezulka Editor-in-Chief

YEARBOOK STAFF
Vox Iuvenum is more than just a collection of photographs and reading material recording the people and happenings of 1961-62 at St. Francis. Truly, it is the "voice of young men. " In the years to come it will be treasured for the memories it holds, symbolizing what was enjoyed and loved.
A school is a place of tradition. Each student or teacher who joins its ranks becomes a part of that tradition. He is moulded by the school's past even as he himself contributes to its future. So it is here at St. Francis. New students come; graduates go. But something of the school tradition remains, for St. Francis, though young in years, has already created a story of its own. That story lives on and grows, as the school itself lives on and expands. This is your story. To its chapters you will contribute as students and as graduates of St. Francis. That is why the staff has endeavored to present a book different both in spirit and format. Then, when we look at it in five, ten, or twenty years, we will be able to say, "This was the year 1962, and it was a good year. "
If this book, both now and in the years which lie ahead, helps to bring back memories of St. Francis and the activities you enjoyed this year, our work will be richly rewarded.
With sincere pride we present this year's Vox Iuvenum, hopeful that it will be a distinct credit to our school and faculty. Sincerely we hope that the "Voice of Young Men" will be enjoyable to its readers, beneficial to its loyal sponsors and patrons, and above all, a lasting memory to our many friendships cultivated here at St. Francis.

SODALITY
Throughout the 1961-62 season, the Sodality of Mary has been active in many spiritual and social works. The Sodalists have attended Mass in a body one day a week throughout the term and have played key roles in the organization of the annual Vocational Rally held at St. Francis. The Junior Sodality lias also helped the students of the school through their diligent work in the "canteen. "
Ili-liting the group's activities this year was the Annual Sodality Convention held in Calgary in February. The theme of the convention, attended by about 300 Sodalists, was "Sodality Today Has an Eye on Tomorrow. "
The motto of the Sodality, "Ad Jesum Per Mariam, " suggests to us that the Sodalist must be willing to co-operate with Mary in performing the works required by the Sodality Rules. He must strive to practise his true Catholic faith in the presence of others. We hope that the students of St. Francis will recognize the work that is being done by the members of the Sodality in their attempt to set a high religious and moral standard for our
Catholic school and students.
This year, under the auspices of Father Wilson, several students risked life, limb, and their good health in the pursuit of chemistry.
Among this year's activities were several trips to industrial and chemical plants, as well as the avid experimentation which took place in the school lab.
An interesting series of experiments having ho perscribed conclusion, thus allowing experimentation, proved exceedingly popular. Such, however, was not only in fun and a great amount of useful and important work resulted. The tours included a trip to the city water purification plant, the local research station, and the B-A sulphur plant in Pincher Creek.
Chemistry Club meetings were not the only periods of scientific endeavor as much of the work undertaken by the senior members was completed in many long hours spent after school.
The Chemistry Club wishes to thank Father Wilson for his untiring efforts which made the time spent in the lab. most enjoyable and beneficial to all those involved.MATH CLUB

MISSING: K. Fabbi.ANNUAL RETREAT
Pack up the books, put all material things aside! It's time for a retreat at St. Francis High School. Yes, that was the cry on March 20. For two days, silence was to reign supreme and the students of St. Francis prepared to take a step closer toward God.
Our retreat master was Reverend Father Male, whose inspiring talks opened our eyes a little wider so that we could see and understand a little more clearly our ultimate goal and the means needed to achieve it. Throughout the conferences, the quotation "To Jesus Through Mary" was emphasized to impress upon our minds the importance of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary in redeeming ourselves and the whole world as well.
The atmosphere of prayer and penance that pervaded the halls of St. Francis gave sufficient testimony of the appreciation of the students for this privilege and of the success of the retreat.
Reverend Father Malo
MISSION REPORT
You might call this year at St. Francis, "Mission Year," because it has been a wonderful one and should be noted. The year started with a bang and a mission raffle helped pull the slackening season out to reach the new objective of $500. 00. This objective has already been excelled.
Again this year Father Wilson's room 9B, has come through with flying colors to take first place, far ahead of everyone else. Next in line was Grade 10B.
As a result of the tremendous generosity of the teachers and students many needy children will receive help, and we are sure they will be truly thankful.
