Acknowledgments

Tis project began in 2001 wit a kernel of an idea and slowly grew to tis collection of essays. Trougout tat long evolution, we ave been supported by generous institutions and colleagues. Kristie S. Fleckenstein tanks Ball State University for an internal grant to defray te costs of permissions. Se also tanks Florida State University’s Department of Englis for similar support. Important to tis project were student interns Liza Cunnington, wo organized and began te process of soliciting permissions for te many images in te collection; Kyle Ford, wo carried on er work by learning more about fair use laws tan e wanted; and Micael Vermilyer, wo juggled permissions, images, and capters. In addition, se tanks Carmen Siering for er careful readings of and responses to te introduction. Finally, se tanks Jamie Miles for is expert preparation of te im- ages tat appear in tis collection. Sue Hum tanks er colleagues Bernadette Andrea, Elissa Foster, Nancy Myers, Mona Narain, and Carlos Salinas for teir patience and wisdom in elping midwife tis project to its birt. Teir individual expertise contributed to te interdisciplinary approaces of tis col- lection. Particularly crucial were te painstaking efforts of Laura Ellis and Lee Lundquist, wo proofread te entire manuscript carefully and exaustively. Linda T. Calendrillo tanks Valdosta State University for support- ing tis project wit a Faculty Researc Grant to elp wit expenses. Se also tanks Linda Holloway in te Dean of Arts and Sciences of- fice for er generous elp in keeping te work on track for tis book. Finally, se tanks Jon Z. Guzlowski for is prodigious proofreading skills, wic e provides so tanklessly. Lastly, toug certainly not least in importance, te editors tank David Blakesley for seeing te potential in tis project, Marguerite Helmers for er careful guidance and detailed response, and Paul
