Haunting and the Educational Imagination
In a time when it seems like we've run into the limits on what Marx, Dewey, and Freud might hold for liberatory critique, this peculiarly uplifting book seeks to identify some promising thinking and teaching practices, especially for work in our contemporary “corporate university of excellence.” With auto-ethnography as a baseline for reflection on her personal teaching life in this troubling political era, as well as an insistence that all students are future teachers whether they seek formal work in classrooms or not, Barbara Regenspan selects insights descending from her horribly imperfect trinity (Marx, Dewey, and Freud), to revaluate what it means to have “obligations to unknowabl...
Pandemic
America is broken. Violence in the streets, thugs walking around with assault rifles. Trump election rallies spreading Covid-19 five-fold in the last 4 months of 2020. After claiming his election was stolen, he urges the January 6 uprising. The new president faces bigger problems. A new blue neck virus arrives, as deadly as the Spanish Flu, a hundred times worse than Covid-19. And yet they are trying to make the deadliest viruses possible in Biowarfare Security Lab right now. One mistake, end of Humanity. Lockdowns are ordered and the protest movement decides otherwise. Soon the daily death toll hits 80,000, twenty times the December 2020 count. Bodies are tossed into mass graves. But those were only facts. The story is about how people react to the disaster. When the Army was asked to take over all civil matters, protestors took on the Army and lost. And how did kids fare when parents came back with that new virus, dead 3 days later. This book is a love story. Love for kids.
Waiting for the End
Waiting for the End examines two dozen contemporary novels within the context of a half century of theorizing about the function of ending in narrative. That theorizing about ending generated a powerful dynamic a quarter-century ago with the advent of feminist criticism of masculinist readings of the role played by ending in fiction. Feminists such as Theresa de Lauretis in 1984 and more famously Susan Winnett in her 1991 PMLA essay, Coming Unstrung, were leading voices in a swelling chorus of theorist pointing out the masculinist bias of ending in narrative. With the entry of feminist readings of ending, it became inevitable that criticism of fiction would become gendered through the recognition of difference transcending a simple binary of female/male to establish a spectrum of masculine to feminine endings, regardless of the sex of the writer. Accordingly, Waiting for the End examines pairs of novels - one pair by Margaret Atwood and one by Ian McEwan - to demonstrate how a writer can offer endings at either end of the gender spectrum.

The Record of Connecticut Men in the Military and Naval Service During the War of the Revolution, 1775-1783
This is the standard work on the subject, and it is literally crammed with genealogies of the 17th-century pioneers of the county, most of whom were of Dutch, or, to a lesser extent, British, origin.
