Uncloseting Drama: Tennessee Williams, William Inge, and Gay Identity in Terry Teachout's Billy and Me
No full textThis paper was presented at the 39th Annual William Inge Theater Festival & Conference hosted by the William Inge Center for the Arts in April 2022.Terry Teachout’s 2017 play, Billy and Me, imagines two fictional encounters between Tennessee Williams and William Inge: first, in a bar in Chicago in 1944 immediately following a pre-Broadway tryout of The Glass Menagerie, then in New York in 1959 following the premiere of Inge’s A Loss of Roses. Through fictional dialogue, Teachout builds upon the historical relationship between these two playwrights to imagine the conversations that must have connected them as two midcentury gay playwrights in America: success and failure, sexual conquests, relationships, and addiction. In this way, Teachout’s play attempts to “uncloset” the issues that were at the heart of Williams’ and Inge’s life and work. Through a comparative analysis of specific characters and situations in their plays, this paper explores how the representation of white, gay male identity varies from the closet dramas of Williams and Inge to the uncloseted and celebrated representation of sexual identity in the theatre of today.
Teachout was the lead drama critic for The Wall Street Journal, playwright of Satchmo at the Waldorf, and author or editor of nearly eight books until his untimely death in 2022. His passion and respect for the writing and craft of America’s midcentury playwrights is apparent in the text of Billy and Me, which has had three productions up until now, providing an interesting study in how this work revivifies its historical subjects through both content as well as form

No full text<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 9.0px Times;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 9.0px Times;">The Inge Lehmann archive contains thousands of seismological work documents from Inge Lehmann’s private home. For a long time the author thought that the main concern was to keep the documents for posterity. There is now a renewed interest in Inge Lehmann, and some documents were presented in a poster at ESC Potsdam 2004, and the collection of documents were scanned and catalogued 2005-2006 at Storia Geofisica Ambiente in Bologna. Inge Lehmann (1888-1993) is famous for her discovery in 1936 of the earth’s inner core and for work on the upper mantle. A short biography is given. After her retirement in 1953 she worked at home in Denmark, and abroad in USA and in Canada. She took part in the creation of the European Seismological Commission in 1951, and in the creation of the International Seismological Centre in 1964. Inge Lehmann received many awards. Some letters from her early correspondence with Harold Jeffreys are discussed, they show how the inner core was discussed already in 1932. A few of the author’s reminiscences of Inge Lehmann are given.</p> <br />
Opportunities for the development of geometrical reasoning in current textbooks in the UK and Japan
No full textDeveloping a good model of the school geometry curriculum continues to be one of the most important tasks in curricular design in mathematics. This paper reports on an initial analysis of current best-selling textbooks used in lower secondary schools in Japan and the UK (specifically England and Scotland). The analysis indicates that, following the specification of the mathematics curriculum in these countries, Japanese textbooks set out to develop students’ deductive reasoning skills through the explicit teaching of proof in geometry, whereas comparative UK textbooks tend, at this level, to concentrate on finding angles, measurement, drawing, and so on, coupled with a modicum of opportunities for conjecturing and inductive reasoning. The available research suggests that each approach has its own strengths and weaknesses. Finding ways of capitalising on the strengths and mitigating the weaknesses could prove helpful in formulating new curricular models and designing new student textbooks
William Inge and the subversion of gender rewriting stereotypes in the plays, novels, and screenplays
No full text"This study of Inge's work focuses particularly on his technique of "gendermandering," patterns of gender-role reversals which Inge exploits not only for dramatic effect but also to subvert social expectations. The author concentrates on material that is strictly Inge's, not adaptations or collaborations, and on work that has been published and is readily available to the general public"--Provided by publisher

Kekuatan Pendukung Kesejahteraan Perempuan Berkontrasepsi Dengan Efek Samping
No full textPerempuan pengguna kontrasepsi dengan efek samping dapat mengalami problim fisik maupun psikis. Studi ini meneliti peran efikasi-diri dan kebajikan sebagai kekuatan pendukung kesejahteraan perempuan berkontrasepsi dengan stres akibat efek samping. Subjek adalah 122 perempuan yang berkontrasepsi selama minimal enam bulan berturut-turut, dan mengalami efek samping. Dengan Structural Equation Modelling yang memenuhi syarat kesesuaian model ditunjukkan bahwa efikasi-diri berperan positif dalam menyejahterakan; kebajikan tidak berperan secara langsung dalam menyejahterakan; kebajikan tetap merupakan faktor psikologis penting karena kebajikan dengan efikasi-diri merupakan dua kekuatan yang dengan signifikan saling mendukung dengan kuat; stres berperan negatif dalam menyejahterakan; dan efikasi-diri maupun kebajikan, bila dimediasi oleh stres, mempunyai efek total yang lebih kuat dalam menyejahterakan daripada efek langsungnya. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan peran penting dari kekuatan psikologis individu dalam mendukung kesejahteraannya
MENELUSURI ARUS PEMERIKSAAN KESEHATAN DAN PENGOBATAN KE LUAR NEGERI
No full textPada tahun-tahun terakhir terjadi arus pemeriksaan kesehatan dan pengobatan ke luar negeri, meskipun ilmu dan teknologi dalam bidang kesehatan di Indonesia tidaklah jauh berbeda dibandingkan dengan keadaan di luar negeri. Keadaan ini kurang mendukung kepercayaan pada pelayanan dan ilmu kesehatan, serta pertumbuhan perekonomian di dalam negeri. Untuk menelusuri fenomena ini dilakukan suatu survei kualitatif pada sepuluh orang yang bersedia memberi masukan tentang apa dan mengapa masalah ini terjadi. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa pelayanan kesehatan dalam kualitas, kerjasama tim, etika, dan sarana, dinilai kurang memuaskan dan kurang dapat dipercaya. Keadaan yang kurang kondusif ini berimbas pada kesehatan dan kesejahteraan pasien maupun keluarganya. Profesionalisme, modernisasi yang multidimensi, dan penanganan kesehatan secara holistik yang dilakukan negara tetangga, menjadi daya tarik yang bernilai tinggi. Keseluruhan hasil survei ini merupakan masukan berharga untuk menumbuh kembangkan pelayanan kesehatan yang berkualitas tinggi di Indonesia
Reviu Literatur: Mengkaji Dinamika Ibu Menyusui di Manca Negara
No full textPendahuluan: Pemberian Air Susu Ibu (ASI) secara eksklusif di manca negara belum memenuhi minimal 50% target yang diharapkan World Health Organization (WHO). Untuk lebih memahami kendalanya, dilakukan reviu literatur tentang dinamika pemberian ASI. Metode: Literatur mancanegara ditelusuri melalui sarana media elektronik dengan penuntun kata kunci. Artikel terseleksi sejumlah 20, yang masing-masing mewakili satu negara dan memberi informasi yang variatif. Hasil: Pemahaman menyusui secara eksklusif belum optimal. Pengertian faktor terkait seperti inisiasi menyusui dini, kontak kulit-kulit, persepsi bahwa ASI kurang, serta larangan asupan lain minimal selama enam bulan, belum difahami dengan baik. Terdapat intervensi negatif dari susu formula, keluarga, kultur, pekerjaan, dan petugas medis. Pembahasan: Hasil penelitian menggambarkan bahwa pentingnya pemberian ASI eksklusif di mancanegara belum diprioritaskan secara optimal. Ke-kurang-pengertian, kekuatan kepentingan lain, dan tekanan lingkungan lebih mengemuka. Kesimpulan: Target WHO dalam memopulerkan ASI mengalami kendala pada penyebaran pengetahuan, intervensi yang benar, serta kurangnya dukungan lingkungan yang positif. Promosi Kesehatan yang intensif diperlukan untuk meningkatkan sadar menyusui
