The Second Language Acquisition Of English Prepositions, Patricia J. Boquist
The Second Language Acquisition Of English Prepositions, Patricia J. Boquist
Senior Honors Theses
The acquisition of English prepositions is especially difficult for students learning English as a second language. This paper briefly discusses how prepositions are used in English and a few of the reasons prepositions cause problems for English language learners. It also analyzes the underlying system that governs prepositions and how this system might be represented to English language learners. Finally, it analyzes the current pedagogy and suggests a possible alternative to the status quo.

Swinburne, Tennyson, And Matters Funereal, Terry L. Meyers
Swinburne, Tennyson, And Matters Funereal, Terry L. Meyers
Arts & Sciences Articles
Excerpt from the article: "This year, 2009, is of course the centenary of the death of Algernon Charles Swinburne, that bad boy of Victorian poetry, that extraordinary writer who outraged so many of his contemporary readers—and later readers too, I might add—with his strongly anti-theistic poetry, with his radical republicanism in a monarchical culture, and with his melodic and entrancing siren song of sexually outrageous poetry. This evening I’d like to talk about Swinburne’s funeral in April 1909 on the Isle of Wight, an event that closed his life with the kind of public controversy that I think he might …
Disenchantment: The Formation, Distortion, And Transformation Of Identity In Charles Dickens' Great Expectations, Lydia K. Christoph
Disenchantment: The Formation, Distortion, And Transformation Of Identity In Charles Dickens' Great Expectations, Lydia K. Christoph
Masters Theses
Charles Dickens' Great Expectations (1861) stands apart from his other works as a powerful expression of his later social and theological views. Rife with rich characterizations, fairy-tale elements, grotesque and bizarre plot twists, Victorian social issues, and a beautifully thoughtful and imaginative commentary on the universal human themes of loss, guilt, abuse, identity, money, social status, and love, this novel remains an outstanding example of truly great art, both popular and classic. This story of identity formation in a nineteenth-century English context demonstrates how Dickens' life and writings, influenced by spurious and inconsistent theological beliefs, express the idea that sin …

Composing In A Global-Local Context : Careers, Mobility, Skills., Min-Zhan Lu, Bruce Horner
Faculty Scholarship
When composition students look to their teachers for vocational guidance, both groups should acknowledge that the contexts of such terms as career, mobility, and skills have radically changed. In particular, the economy now links the global with the local, and capitalism has shifted from the fordist model, dominant through much of the twentieth century, to a newer, “fast” model.

I'Ll Fly Away: A Sociolinguistic Analysis Of African-American Homecomings, Jeanne Bohannon
I'Ll Fly Away: A Sociolinguistic Analysis Of African-American Homecomings, Jeanne Bohannon
Graduate English Association New Voices Conference 2009
As part of the 1940 Federal Writer’s Project, the Savannah, Georgia Unit sought to authentically record oral traditions and life experiences of coastal African Americans in their own words. The study sought to produce an important artifact of African American culture through dialectal awareness, especially to preserve these dialects during an apocalyptic linguistic change. Among the many voices, Katie Brown’s echoed reminisces of a family history. Combined with Cornelia Walker Bailey’s memoir, God, Dr. Buzzard, and the Bolito Man, this historical documentation gives life to the cultural traditions brought by Bilali and other slaves when they were forcibly settled on …

Bibliographical Detective Work: William Camden‘S Remains Concerning Britain, Paul Cantrell
Bibliographical Detective Work: William Camden‘S Remains Concerning Britain, Paul Cantrell
English Student Research, Projects, and Publications
In the present discussion of William Camden‘s Remains Concerning Britain, heraldry has as its counterpart the study of the heredity of the English language. Both are essential to Camden‘s text, in content as well as in form. Prior to these discussions of priority, however, we must begin with the precursor work which the Remains complements, Camden‘s Britannia. Chorographical rather than historical, the Britannia describes Britain‘s geography in order to explore the country‘s history. In the present investigation I adopt Camden‘s method in reverse, beginning with the historical context of Camden‘s work in order to situate a discussion of the physical …

The Maritorious Melodrama: Film Noir With A Female Detective, Philippa Gates
The Maritorious Melodrama: Film Noir With A Female Detective, Philippa Gates
English and Film Studies Faculty Publications
Feminist critics tend to disagree whether the parachuting of women into traditionally male roles—for example, that of detective—results in a feminist representation. The female detective of the 1930s, however, can be seen to offer a decidedly positive feminist hero in that she defies the stereotype of the “masculine” (i.e. unnatural) woman—especially when one considers the time in which she appeared and representations of female detectives in contemporary film. Despite popular conceptions of classical film, Hollywood did offer progressive representations of working women, ironically in the decade characterized by economic and social upheaval during the Depression. The prolific female detective of …
Abandon Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn: Why Bother?, Johnny Duan '12
Abandon Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn: Why Bother?, Johnny Duan '12
2009 Fall Semester
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has been an incendiary novel for decades; it has raised controversy in schools for at least half a century (Kim 1). Many have sought to remove it from literature classes, for various reasons, whether because of its racism, improper language, or alleged corrupting affects (Liechty). These arguments have not convinced the public to ban this book; none of the arguments used have been effective. There is no reason for us to break this trend.
The Final Word: The Use Of Epigraphs In Watchmen, Kevin Chen '10
The Final Word: The Use Of Epigraphs In Watchmen, Kevin Chen '10
2009 Fall Semester
Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ Watchmen, a graphic novel depicting a superhero-inhabited, Cold War-era world on the verge of mutually assured destruction, presents an alternate-universe story that examines the ethics of justice underlying humanity. Through the skillful synergy of image and text, the author and illustrator have created a vibrant novel offering an aesthetic, intellectual experience that traditional literature and visual art independently fail to achieve. Of significance are the quotations that Moore cites to complete each chapter of the book. While taken from disparate sources, they share a commonality in their remarkable relevance to the story. Moore concludes …
The Friar, Joly Wu '11
The Friar, Joly Wu '11
2009 Fall Semester
Though Hubert the Friar is supposed to be a shepherd for the devout, he (as revealed through the Geoffrey Chaucer’s sly, ironic writing) prances around in expensive clothing, lusts after anyone he wishes, and generally violates the teachings of the Church he vowed to represent. Thus, through its abundant detail and description of the Friar, the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer paints a portrait of a unique character that contradicts his commitment to the 14th century Catholic Church.
