Modernism and Autobiography
This volume offers sixteen original essays that attest to the extraordinary inventiveness and range of modernist autobiography. It examines the ways modernist writers chose to tell their life stories, with particular attention to forms, venues, modes of address, and degrees of truthfulness. The essays are grouped around a set of rubrics that isolate the distinctive character and shared preoccupations of modernist life-writings: questions of ances…

Factors That Influence Vulnerability to STDS and Hiv/Aids Among Hispanic Women
Self-esteem, motivation for sexual health, and sexual risk behaviors as indicated by condom use and number of sex partners was explored in a sample of 140 Hispanic women of childbearing age (18-44 years).

They found that 70% (n = 79) of single women reported condom use with their most recent sexual partner, and 49% (n = 55) of…

This essay traces the relationship of Hollywood blackface to the figure of the shadow in the moving and still pictures of the 1930s. By reading Fred Astaire's Swing Time (1936) against Al Jolson's The Jazz Singer (1927), I argue that the shadow linked the breakthroughs in thirties cinematography with a distinctively Protestant variant of cinematic blackface
