Domestic Imagery In Tennyson's In Memoriam, Ruth Clark

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The vehicle Tennyson uses to explore the thematic ambiguities of love/indifference; faith/doubt; hope/despair; and life/death is domestic imagery, specifically images which involve the home or house and those images of personal relationships which move the poet from despair to a tentative faith.

The initial chapter of this work will present a general view of Tennyson and In Memoriam by which the subsequent study of the elegy's domestic imagery may be brought into focus. In addition to a discussion of the occasion of the poem, pertinent critical material will be evaluated in terms of value to this discussion of imagery. After …

Imagery In Meredith's Modern Love, Beverly Belden

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

George Meredith's Modern Love deals with a formula for achieving happiness in life by a man whose marriage has failed. His marital breakup serves as a catalyst for the husband's internal journey which, through intense self questionings, leads him to a fuller understanding of himself and his purpose within the harmony of nature. Definite overt action and external events are secondary in the sonnet sequence. Indeed, the major portion of the work is conveyed by images which reveal the husband's developing psychological states. As Lionel Stevenson says of Modern Love in the standard biography of Meredith,

To Maintain The Sublime: Art, Reality, And Society In The Work Of Ezra Pound, Camilla Bunker Haase

Honors Papers

It is the purpose of this paper to find out what that conception was: to extract from Pound's critical writings the fundamental beliefs about the nature and function of art which governed his activities. During the most active part of his life, one thus discovers, Pound was governed by a mimetic theory of art: a work of art, he thought, is an accurate representation of an artist's impression of reality. Poe can-thus provide reliable information about the way people respond to reality, about the way they behave--data which, Pound believed, can and indeed must be used in formulating; ethical codes. …
