"Her Life's Solace Was Visiting and News": social networks and gossip in nine...The Nation, Genre and Gender Project
Gossip is an integral facet of the social and narrative landscapes of 19th century novels. When two or more characters gather on the page to discuss a third (or additional) character(s), their conversation provides narrative exposition, illustrates the personalities and sentiments of the gossipers themselves (as well as their subjects of discussion), and is frequently a spur to dramatic action. In the humanities and social sciences, gossip has been conceptualised both as a subversive communicative mode and as a socially conservative one; meanwhile, social network analysis research has examined how the act of gossiping affects individuals and groups, and has identified network structures that are characteristic of gossip and its spread through a community. Combining these approaches, this paper utilises the corpus of literary social network analyses that have been prepared by the interdisciplinary Nation, Genre and Gender project, a large-scale survey of 19th century British and Irish novels combining computer science and humanities methodologies. We identify a number of scenes in these novels in which gossip occurs, and utilise these as prototypical social networks in order to investigate how gossip manifests throughout the wider corpus. Our focus is on the identification of theoretical "gossip structures" in the networks, and whether these are associated with particular aspects of the novel, such as its genre, the gender of the author or the attributes of the characters involved."The Lottery" Conflict and Elements of the Plot

Scrooge embodies the selfish rich and ignores the poor, while Fezziwig generously cares for his employees' well-being.

Oral presentation on A Christmas Carol
The document analyzes the deeper message of A Christmas Carol beyond just being a Christmas story. It argues that Dickens was making a point about life and society through the story, encouraging virtues like kindness, forgiveness and charity. While set at Christmas, the story's events and Scrooge's transformation serve as a warning against ignorance and want. Both critics and Dickens' own words support that the moral was to be good to others all year, not just at Christmas, and that anyone, like Scrooge, can change for the better.

Final costume bible - Sophie Kew
Here are the pros and cons of constructing Little Red Riding Hood's costume:
Pros:
- I enjoy working with skirts and like the detailed layered skirt design
- Many of the materials have a reasonable price and seem easy to source
- It's a well-known fairy tale character that would be recognizable
Cons:
- The applique and bodice materials are very expensive
- Many others in my class have chosen this character so it may lack originality
- I have never constructed a layered skirt before so it would be a new technique
Overall it seems like an interesting design but the expense of some materials and lack of originality due to popularity may make it less ideal than other options.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Day 8-ELIT 46C
- 2. So much business! (But not the Scrooge kind.) Paper 1 due on Canvas tomorrow at noon (unless you’ve arranged an extension). Poetry performances due Tuesday in class. Reading for Tuesday: Browning and Tennyson. ◦ Excerpts from Tennyson, In Memoriam: Prologue and Sections 6, 8, 13, 27-30, 59, 129-131. (Also, read the Norton description of what’s going on in that poem.) Please start reading Jekyll & Hyde early! What participation looks like today: ◦ 3 total points ◦ 1 point individual in full class discussion ◦ 2 points for group work (as long as you talk in your group).
- 3. Overall Participation (as of this morning) The RAW overall participation totals will be curved and then converted into a letter grade for your final participation grade in the course (worth 20%). As of this morning: ◦ Mean: 32 ◦ Range: 0-48 ◦ Std Dev: 12.6 Based on the distribution, this is what I think would be fair participation grades if I assigned them today: ◦ 36-48 = A range (22) ◦ 25-35 = B range (18) ◦ 10-24 = C range (3) ◦ 0-9 = D or F (6) IF you don’t like this grade, you have seven weeks to do something about it. What could you do?
- 4. IF you celebrate Christmas, what is a part of your celebration? MAYBE CHRISTMAS CARDS?
- 5. Angela: How does A Christmas Carol define our version of Christmas? WHAT SEEMS RECOGNIZABLE HERE?
- 6. Victorian Christmas At the end of the 18th century, Christmas not much celebrated in England (not a business holiday). 1833: first significant collection of Christmas carols published. 1843: Henry Cole invents Christmas cards. 1843: A Christmas Carol. 1848: Prince Albert (Queen Vic’s husband) and the Christmas tree (see picture at right). 1848: Christmas crackers invented. How might A Christmas Carol have affected/reflected key developments in Christmas?
- 7. “[A]s Scrooge and the Spirit went along the streets, the brightness of the roaring fires in kitchens, parlours, and all sorts of rooms, was wonderful. Here, the flickering blaze showed preparations for a cosy dinner, with hot plates baking through and through before the fire, and deep red curtains, ready to be drawn, to shut out cold and darkness. There, all the children of the house were running out into the snow to meet their married sisters, brothers, cousins, uncles, aunts, and be the first to greet them.” (42) Victorians centered Christmas on the home, the family, and on a particular set of positive emotions/affects (cheer, generosity, goodwill, etc.)
- 8. Adaptation
- 9. A Diva’s Christmas Carol (2000) Intro: https://youtu.be/emvp39x-PXs?t=2m NYC and niece: https://youtu.be/emvp39x-PXs?t=15m17s Marley: https://youtu.be/emvp39x-PXs?t=24m45s Ghost of Christmas Past: https://youtu.be/emvp39x-PXs?t=31m12s Success over love: https://youtu.be/emvp39x-PXs?t=43m56s Some questions to consider: 1. How do they translate it into contemporary life? What seems accurate to the “spirit” (lol) of the original? What seems like a significant alteration? 2. How does making the main character a woman of color change our experience of the story? How does it change the politics of the story? 3. How do they deal with the “Christmas commercialism” problem?
- 10. Propose your own adaptation of ACC Task: Adapt A Christmas Carol for big or small screen. ◦ Be as creative as you want. ◦ Could be an entirely new project or could even be an “episode” of an already existing series. ◦ Don’t worry about cost. Come up with: “premise,” setting (time and place), characters and casting (you can suggest actors), plot outline, maybe even a title? What do you want viewers to get out of this? What aspects of the original do you want to be faithful to? ◦ Characters ◦ Events ◦ Emotions, affects (cheer, generosity, etc.) ◦ The moral ◦ The focus on individual change What do you want to change and why? Is there an aspect of the original you would like to subvert? Propose one scene (in some detail) that you know you will need in your adaptation.
