'That life of commonplace sacrifices' : representations of womanhood in Irish Catholic culture in James Joyce's Dubliners

Creator:: McGrory, Suzette L.

Architecture, size, and reproduction in plants : a pollination study of Mertensia ciliata (James) G. Don

Creator:: Geber, Monica

This follows from the premises that 1) pollen dispersal by pollinators between flowers is limited, and 2) individual pollinators, in this study bumblebees, will visit more flowers per...

Confessing Ireland : the colonial politics of Irish Catholicism in James Joyce's A portrait of the artist as a young man

Creator:: Rathert, Gregory S.
Abstract:: Ireland's Catholic Church played an important role in the turn-of-the-century nationalism that shaped James Joyce's identity and writing; yet it also played an important part in preventing that nationalism from achieving its goals of autonomy and cultural independence.
