Waking Dreams
Sometimes Colin Pierce's dreams come true--unfortunately they aren't always happy dreams.

This time the Wall of Sleep--the line separating the Dreamside from the waking world--is under attack by a malevolent entity known only as the Torment.

And maybe, just maybe, along the way he can save himself...

The Linear Limitations of Syntactic Derivations
In this dissertation, I identify and analyze several new generalizations about how phrasal displacement and discontinuity are constrained in natural language. These patterns reveal, I argue, that many limitations of syntactic derivations are attributable to the way in which syntactic operations are cyclically interleaved with the component of the grammar that establishes word order. This finding has consequences for many phenomena, and for the architecture of grammar in general. Chapter 1 introduces the theory of cyclic linearization that serves as the foundation for this work, and several principles about the locality of movement that importantly interact with it. Chapter 2 shows that these...

Beyond the Five Paragraph Essay
Love it or hate it, the five-paragraph essay is perhaps the most frequently taught form of writing in classrooms of yesterday and today. But have you ever actually seen five-paragraph essays outside of school walls? Have you ever found it in business writing, journalism, nonfiction, or any other genres that exist in the real world? Kimberly Hill Campbell and Kristi Latimer reviewed the research on the effectiveness of the form as a teaching tool and discovered that the research does not support the five-paragraph formula. In fact, research shows that the formula restricts creativity, emphasizes structure rather than content, does not improve standardized test scores, inadequately prepares st...
A Sacred Space Is Never Empty
When the Bolsheviks set out to build a new world in the wake of the Russian Revolution, they expected religion to die off. Soviet power used a variety of tools--from education to propaganda to terror—to turn its vision of a Communist world without religion into reality. Yet even with its monopoly on ideology and power, the Soviet Communist Party never succeeded in overcoming religion and creating an atheist society. A Sacred Space Is Never Empty presents the first history of Soviet atheism from the 1917 revolution to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. Drawing on a wealth of archival material and in-depth interviews with those who were on the front lines of Communist ideological c...
Bound to Appear
At the close of the twentieth century, black artists began to figure prominently in the mainstream American art world for the first time. Thanks to the social advances of the civil rights movement and the rise of multiculturalism, African American artists in the late 1980s and early ’90s enjoyed unprecedented access to established institutions of publicity and display. Yet in this moment of ostensible freedom, black cultural practitioners found themselves turning to the history of slavery. Bound to Appear focuses on four of these artists—Renée Green, Glenn Ligon, Lorna Simpson, and Fred Wilson—who have dominated and shaped the field of American art over the past two decades through la...
The Visionary
A man with visions and who loves the earth utilizes his talents to recreate some of the beauty that he once had in a faraway land. He strives to live by what his godmother—his mother’s cousin—calls the wisdom of the heart. With hope of his one childhood vision all but lost, he succeeds in manifesting his love of the earth in the resort lands of California. Many people look to him for his leadership abilities. Without the love of his departed father, he tries to bring about familial unity even though he must leave his homeland to do so. The darkness of his past ancestry continues to haunt and discourage his hope of understanding the beautiful vision of his childhood, shared and painted by the artistry of his young sister. Many dark and deceitful secrets must be recovered and dealt with before the return of a beautiful Dreamwalker who is destined to help him regain the true wisdom of the heart in all its glory.
