▼ This cultural history study examined Atlanta’s Neighborhood Arts Center (NAC), which existed from 1975 to 1990, as an example of black cultural politics in the South. As a Black Arts Movement (BAM) institution, this regional expression has been missing from academic discussions of the period. The study investigated the multidisciplinary programming that was created to fulfill its motto of “Art for People’s Sake.” The five themes developed from the program research included: 1) the NAC represented the juxtaposition between the individual and the community, local and national; 2) the NAC reached out and extended the arts to the masses, rather than just focusing on the black middle class and white supporters; 3) the NAC was distinctive in space and location; 4) the NAC seemed to provide more opportunities for women artists than traditional BAM organizations; and 5) the NAC had a specific mission to elevate the social and political consciousness of black people. In addition to placing the Neighborhood Arts Center among the regional branches of the BAM family tree, using the programmatic findings, this research analyzed three themes found to be present in the black cultural politics of Atlanta which made for the center’s unique grassroots contributions to the movement. The themes centered on a history of politics, racial issues, and class dynamics. The research offers an alternative to the claim that southern expressions of this movement were generated solely by the historically black colleges and universities of their cities. The study’s findings demonstrate that the Neighborhood Arts Center was a grassroots. multidisciplinary entity for black aesthetics and black cultural nationalism. The findings also suggest that the Neighborhood Arts Center perpetuated the Black Arts Movement through the 1980s. Lastly, the study offers insight on the movement’s transition and legacies.

▼ This dissertation is a jointly scholarly and creative exploration of the potentials of autobiography. Specifically, this dissertation seeks to examine how the personal narrative may be utilized to undermine or challenge prevailing cultural myths and legends of the American South as they are manifested in master narratives propagated within an individual family’s narrative. As emblems of Southern culture, these master narratives have privileged the white male experience over other Southern voices. An interdisciplinary examination of selected historical and literary texts reveals certain external challenges to the resilient master narrative, but this dissertation suggests autobiography may prove a particularly potent force to challenge the narratives from within the alleged monolith of white, upper- and middle-class Southern culture. In so doing, this dissertation aims to evaluate the tension between connection and critique as experienced by the native Southern author. The dissertation is divided into five chapters incorporating scholarship from the fields of history, literature, and Southern cultural studies. Each chapter is comprised of five thematically linked reflective essays blending familial and personal narratives, and the chapters are connected by creative pieces, titled “interludes,” offering lyrical exploration of overlapping themes and images. The first chapter contains an overview of key thinkers and texts to establish a framework of inquiry—in short, the context for the current exploration. The second chapter examines Southern master narratives as they have been filtered through the histories of specific family units, and the third chapter explores specific Southern cultural values, including religion and the veneration of an agrarian lifestyle, adopted and adapted by white, middle-class Southern families. Examinations of gender roles and expectations comprise the fourth chapter, and the fifth chapter deals almost exclusively with questions of race. Advisors/Committee Members: Allen, Annette, Williams, Michael, Williams, Michael, Crothers, A. Glenn, Fosl, Catherine.

▼ Safety of residents has gained increased popularity in recent years following a report from the Institute of Medicine attributing 98,000 hospital deaths each year to errors by staff. As a result, regulatory agencies, advocates, and health care providers have shifted their focus to understanding patient safety and developing a culture that promotes safety. However, nursing homes lag behind other health care providers in their adoption of a patient safety culture and understanding what factors affect safety in resident care. These insights are needed to ensure that nursing home residents receive the safe care. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore factors that influence the safety of residents in nursing homes by conducting three separate studies and using Donabedian's Structure Process Outcome (SPO) framework. The first study examines facility characteristics that predict higher patient safety culture scores given by top managers among a nationally representative sample of nursing homes. Using the same sample, the second study examines the relationships among the three components of Donabedian's SPO model as they relate to patient safety: structure (patient safety culture), processes of care (restraint use) and a common patient safety outcome, resident falls. The final study uses a sample of Florida nursing homes and the SPO model to examine the relationships between nursing staff turnover, processes of care, and patient safety outcomes in nursing homes. Findings from this dissertation can contribute to a greater understanding of what predicts higher levels of patient safety in nursing homes. In the first analysis, facility characteristics that are traditionally related to quality of care in nursing homes are predictive of higher patient safety culture scores. In the second analysis, higher ratings of patient safety culture are related to better processes of care and a decreased likelihood of resident falls. In the final analysis, results indicate that Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) turnover had an independent effect on two patient safety outcomes, falls and UTIs, and that this effect is mediated by processes of care within the nursing home. Collectively, the findings from this dissertation may have important implications for policy makers, providers, and consumers of nursing home services.

▼ Early modern literature abounds in references to beauty. However, in the past few decades, discussions of beauty have been sidelined in part due to the influence of approaches such as cultural materialism and new historicism; as a result, beauty often gets viewed as some kind of ideological mist that distracts us from ethical issues. By taking beauty as seriously as early modern thinkers did, my research underscores the importance of beauty in early modern literary criticism and reassesses the critical relationship between beauty and ethics. My study posits Shakespeare as philosopher of beauty and reinterprets several literary works, thereby challenging traditionally accepted criticism on these works. This dissertation begins by addressing the centrality of the topic of beauty in humanist discourses and literary works of the early modern period and argues that beauty was a critical way through which early modern culture defined itself. Beauty instigates an inquiry into the nature of being human and the self and its relationship with the other – that, as I have shown, is the matter of ethics. Chapter 2 examines the nature of the experience of beauty and concludes and explains how an encounter with beauty is necessarily ethical and places a call on us to respond. Here, I also introduce the Levinasian-Derridean concept of ethics and Otherness, and discuss beauty in relation to notions selfhood. Chapter 3 explores the dynamics of a response to beauty in various literary works and studies the correlation between Neoplatonism, Protestant grace, and the Levinasian "ethical". I elucidate the potential for ethical violence inherent in responses to beauty and show that these responses to beauty are fraught with difficulties and necessarily involve a consideration of the self's relation to the other. The final chapter continues this examination of the nature of beauty and its connection to selfhood by taking a look at the other or the ostensible opposite of beauty. My analysis of Othello and Omkara returns to the opening chapter in its assertion that for early modern thinkers, beauty is being. I explore the interchangeable nature of beauty and its other, the fluidness of selfhood, and the pursuit of the elusive otherness that beauty instigates. My examination of a contemporary Hindi cinematic adaptation of a Shakespearean play not only illuminates traditional critical concerns of the play anew but also shows how issues relevant to the early modern European world of the play are relevant and pressing in a postcolonial, contemporary world. The subject of beauty and ethics traverses time and space: it is critical and indispensible to a better understanding of our selfhood, our relationships, and the limitations and potential of our knowledge.

▼ This thesis is an arts-based educational research inquiry that portrays a journey of diarised posttraumatic growth in the context of the mother-daughter dyad. Using an autoethnographic methodology enacted through the living inquiry of a/r/tography, a creative work was produced, namely an artist’s book titled M/other, which unravels the story of the researcher’s relationship with her alcoholic mother, from the impact of childhood trauma to its repercussions in the present day. Portrayed through the lens of loss, M/other contains in poetry, creative writing, photography and film, a narrative retelling of the lived experience of a ‘motherless’ daughter negotiating a fractured maternal relationship. The research was guided by three central questions: 1) What is the connection between posttraumatic growth and creativity? 2) What is the relationship between posttraumatic growth and creative arts pedagogies in adolescence? 3) How can creative arts pedagogies, with particular respect to posttraumatic growth, contribute to educational practice? Spanning the fields of psychology, social science, education and fine arts, this thesis proposes a connection between posttraumatic growth [PTG] and creativity. M/other is an account of posttraumatic growth lived in and through the creative process, supporting the posited proposition that creativity is growth. Tedeschi and Calhoun’s (2004) five specific life areas of PTG – deeper personal relationships, increased spiritual growth, appreciation of personal strength, acknowledgment of new opportunities, and an overall gratefulness for life – were used to focus the search for evidence of PTG in a thorough analysis of a collection of seven of the researcher’s adolescent diaries (1,140 pages in total). The diaries were found to indicate a strong presence of posttraumatic growth and specific excerpts were used as the inspiration for the poetic and creative writing in M/ other. What The Missed Encounter proposes is a style of PTG called diarised posttraumatic growth [DPTG] where the confessional and daily writing of issues and traumatic events in a personal diary has the potential to promote growth and eudaimonia in individuals. The researcher found that her teenage diaries possessed an epistolary function as letters to her absent, and now deceased, mother. Their relationship survived because of the role of ambivalence and the researcher’s ability to create the mother she needed in the narrative of her journals. In light of this, The Missed Encounter advocates for an ideally daily engagement with diarising and creative practice as a strategy for eudaimonia and growth, particularly for individuals post-trauma.

▼ In order to fill the current employment gaps in STEM, specifically engineering, initiatives have shifted towards increasing the number of women and minorities, who are both significantly underrepresented. (National Science Board, 2016) If cooperative education is to participate in this, we must first ensure the unique qualities of the women’s co-op experience are adequately understood for practitioners to assist in setting the women up for success and best meeting their needs. Cooperative education research on female co-ops is limited, thus missing out on an opportunity to assist in these national initiatives. This dissertation provides a study on female engineering co-op students and their experiences as women in a male-dominated profession. The framework on which this dissertation rests encompasses four key feminist theorists: Simone de Beauvoir, Sandra Harding, Donna Haraway, and Kathy Charmaz. Harding (1991) calls for a shift in the sciences to be more inclusive of women, and a valuable approach in this research is to think from the women’s perspectives. The women’s voices were critical to this study, so the qualitative data consisted of two rounds of in-depth interviews to gain their insider perspective into the everyday realities of their co-op experiences. Utilizing Wenger’s (1991) social theory of learning, I argue that the experiences associated with the community of practice are most significant, because it focuses on the learning beyond mere skills. Through an analysis on the culmination of the women’s perspectives, I offer a theoretical model that identifies the key areas of negotiation the women faced within their communities of practice; those key areas being gender, identity, and learning. Ultimately, the model I propose, based on Haraway’s (1991) cyborg metaphor, provides an approach to cooperative education which focuses on the negotiation required within a community of practice, the choices that are available within the community, and the social change the women can potentially generate, ultimately shifting their communities to be more inclusive of those populations they are working to garner. Advisors/Committee Members: Ann Brady.
