I was born in Frenchville, Maine. A small suburb of Northern Aroostook County, Maine. I am of French decent. I was born September Eleven, Nineteen Thirty-Nine. My Father was a Farmer and my Mother was a Housewife. I have one Sister and three Brothers. We settled in Presque Isle, Maine, where I graduated in Nineteen Fifty-Eight and married the same year. I have Five Children. Wendy, John, Douglas, Lisa and Carrie. I am proud of my children and my eight Grand-Children. I have one beautiful Great-Grandson. I retired from The Travelers Insurance, in Nineteen Eighty-Eight. We moved to Florida, 13 years ago. I always liked writing and putting down my thoughts on paper. I wrote a Poem to my Aunt, whom I love dearly. I wrote her a Poem, telling her how much she meant to me, I named the Poem Touched. After reading the Poem and seeing how it had touched her, that gave me the courage to write more. After that day I continued writing. My Poems are all personal, I get great satisfaction out of writing Poems for family and friends. My favorite one is Katrina. This Poem was written in tribute to the people that lost their lives and to the ones that suffered so from that great tragedy. My hobbies are writing Poems, Cross Stitching, and doing Sudoku Puzzles. I enjoy going out to dinner with my husband of Thirty One years.

Knights Are No More

By: Jeanette Thomas

From her early childhood, Calista had been lost in her daydreams of living in a castle. She read every book, searched for pictures, and dreamed about everything that had to do with castles. But only her mothers words rang in her heart: Calista, knights are no more. This dreaming of castles will take you down a path you will not want to travel. Over and over, she heard these words ringing in her heart, filling her entire being with words of power and deep feelings. They were her mothers words of doom. Would she be traveling down the wrong road? The opportunity came for her to purchase property with a castle on the grounds. The castle was in ruins, but she was determined she could bring it back to its original structure by restoration. She sells her childhood home after her mother and fathers accident and sets out to accomplish her dreams. There were many pitfalls and obstructions that tried to discourage her work. But she had closed her mind to defeat.

Mapping Hispaniola

Third Space in Dominican and Haitian Literature

By: Megan Jeanette Myers

Mapping Hispaniola

Third Space in Dominican and Haitian Literature

By: Megan Jeanette Myers

Because of their respective histories of colonization and independence, the Spanish-speaking Dominican Republic has developed into the largest economy of the Caribbean, while Haiti, occupying the western side of their shared island of Hispaniola, has become one of the poorest countries in the Americas. While some scholars have pointed to such disparities as definitive of the island’s literature, Megan Jeanette Myers challenges this reduction by considering how certain literary texts confront the dominant and, at times, exaggerated anti-Haitian Dominican ideology. Myers examines the antagonistic portrayal of the two nations—from the anti-Haitian rhetoric of the intellectual elites of Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo’s rule to the writings of Julia Alvarez, Junot Díaz, and others of the Haitian diaspora—endeavoring to reposition Haiti on the literary map of the Dominican Republic and beyond. Focusing on representations of the Haitian-Dominican dynamic that veer from the dominant history, Mapping Hispaniola disrupts the "magnification" and repetition of a Dominican anti-Haitian narrative.

American Remakes of British Television

Transformations and Mistranslations

By: Carlen Lavigne,Heather Marcovitch

Ever since Norman Lear remade the BBC series Till Death Us Do Part into All in the Family, American remakes of British television shows have become part of the American cultural fabric. Indeed, some of the programs currently said to exemplify American tastes and attitudes, from reality programs like American Idol and What Not to Wear to the mock-documentary approach of The Office, are adaptations of successful British shows. Carlen Lavigne and Heather Marcovitch's American Remakes of British Television: Transformations and Mistranslations is a multidisciplinary collection of essays that focuses on questions raised when a foreign show is adapted for the American market. What does it mean to remake a television program? What does the process of 'Americanization' entail? What might the success or failure of a remade series tell us about the differences between American and British producers and audiences? This volume examines British-to-American television remakes from 1971 to the present. The American remakes in this volume do not share a common genre, format, or even level of critical or popular acclaim. What these programs do have in common, however, is the sense that something in the original has been significantly changed in order to make the program appealing or accessible to American audiences. The contributors display a multitude of perspectives in their essays. British-to-American television remakes as a whole are explained in terms of the market forces and international trade that make these productions financially desirable. Sanford and Son is examined in terms of race and class issues. Essays on Life on Mars and Doctor Who stress television's role in shaping collective cultural memories. An essay on Queer as Folk explores the romance genre and also talks about differences in national sexual politics. An examination of The Office discusses how the American remake actually endorses the bureaucracy that the British original satirizes; alternatively, another approach breaks down The Office's bumbling boss figures in terms of contemporary psychological theory. An essay on What Not to Wear discusses how a reality show about everyday fashion conceals the construction of an ideal national subject; a second essay explains the show in terms of each country's discourses surrounding femininity. The success of American Idol is explained by analyzing the role of amateur music in American culture. The issue of translation itself is interrogated by examining specific episodes of Cracker, and also by asking why a successful series in the U.K., Blackpool, was a dismal failure as an American remake. This collection provides a rich and multifaceted overview of approaches to international television studies.
