아일랜드의 모더니스트 시인 W.B. 예이츠와 트리니다드 출신의 영국흑인 시인 안소니 조세프와의 비교는 예외적일 수 있다. 예이츠는 핵심적 하이 모더니스 트 시인들 중 하나이며, 조세프는 당대 “영국 흑인” 문학의 아방가르드적 변두리의 혼합장르 작가로 인식되고 있다. 그러나, 이 두 사람은, 특정 기법의 사용, 주제, 신화와 과학적 은유와 결부된 목표 등을 비교하면, 의외의 공통점이 나타난다. 이런 공통 점은 모더니스트와 포스트모더니스트의 서정시의 가능성을 확장시켜 전통적 장르의 구분을 뛰어넘게 한다.

The present work is a study on the argon gas pressure effects of Sinter/HIP sintering on microstructure and strength of different grades of TiC-NiMo cermets. Titanium carbide in the composition of different grades of TiC-NiMo cermets was ranged from 40 to 80 wt.% and the ratio of nickel to molybdenum in the initial powder composition was 1:1, 2:1 and 4:1 respectively. On the sintered alloys, the main strength characteristic, transverse rupture strength (TRS) was measured. Furthermore, the microstructure parameters of some alloys were measured and the pressure effect on pore elimination was evaluated. All the results were compared with common, vacuum sintered alloys. The TRS values of TiC-NiMo cermets could be considerably improved by using Sinter/HIP technique, for high-carbide fraction alloys and for alloys sintered at elevated temperatures.

Culturally responsive leadership, derived from the concept of culturally responsive pedagogy, incorporates those leadership philosophies, practices, and policies that create inclusive schooling environments for students and families from ethnically and culturally diverse backgrounds. In this essay I extend the tenets of culturally responsive leadership beyond the school site to encompass community-based educational leadership that advocates for cultural recognition, revitalization, and community development. I provide historical examples of educational leaders from three global cities --New York City, London, and Toronto--and discuss how their actions as public intellectuals, “boundary spanners,” and advocacy leaders linked community activism with culture-based curriculum in three national contexts. In the end, I discuss the implications of this framework for leadership preparation.
