Trauma: Relevance, History and Healing |
| By Corrie L. Snow |
| |
| Abstract: |
| In
seeking to cope with traumatic events, literature is often
used as a form of healing for writers and a vessel of human
emotion for readers. Poetry is often a viable option for conveying to others the pain,
struggle, hope, and strength associated with a traumatic history. This paper explains how the Irish Potato Famine
and the Holocaust have been portrayed through literature. |

| EU/Japanese Relations |
| By Will Sherman |
| |
| Abstract: |
| When
international relations between the world’s economic superpowers
are mentioned, the first political/economic bonds that come
to ones head usually involve the U.S. The world influence
that comes from ties between Japan and Europe have been considered
relatively weak compared to those between Japan and the U.S.
or the U.S. and Europe, but the policy initiatives arising
from a joint declaration are helping to improve the balance
of relations between these three partners. |
