How To Be An Artist: An Investigation In Dialogue With Rainer Maria Rilke And Virginia Woolf, Amber Nicole Junker
How To Be An Artist: An Investigation In Dialogue With Rainer Maria Rilke And Virginia Woolf, Amber Nicole Junker
Senior Projects Spring 2020
In 1929, Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet was published, a text which quickly became one of his most renowned works. 1932 saw the publication of Virginia Woolf’s “A Letter to a Young Poet,” a text which is not held by critics as one of her best. Yet Woolf’s letter should not be ignored, as it allows for a comparison between herself and Rilke, two modernists who are rarely put into conversation. Though this comparison originates from the surface level—the curious similarity between the titles of these works—I have found that it is their nearness in content that …

The Game At The Green Chapel: A Game-Oriented Perspective On Chivalry In Sir Gawain And The Green Knight, Joshua David Maldonado
Senior Projects Spring 2020
Like many things in life, the very idea of a game contradicts itself. A game is so many conflicting things at once. All in good fun, but with the focused goal of winning. A closed space with no consequences, yet personally affecting outside its boundaries. Often playful, yet deathly serious. The games we make and play often have a hand in deciding our identities. What kinds of games do we play, and how often? Who do we play them with? How seriously do we take them, and how do we react to certain outcomes? Do we learn from our mistakes …
Floral Personification In James Joyce’S A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man, Noah Z. Gichan
Floral Personification In James Joyce’S A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man, Noah Z. Gichan
Senior Projects Spring 2020
In Richard Ellmann's influential biography on James Joyce he describes Joyce's transformation from a pious schoolboy to a secular modernist artist as a type of “transmutation.” When it comes to Joyce’s fiction this transformation translates to a famous moment when Stephen Dedalus describes a “magical moment” where he will “meet in the real world the unsubstantial image which his soul so constantly beheld.” Once this moment happens Stephen will have become “transfigured.” While there are many such moments of transfiguration, there is one such moment when Stephen chooses the vocation of the artist and describes his soul as an “opening …

'A Most Splendid Soldier': The Life Of My Great-Grandfather Major General George Bruce, Orson Fry
'A Most Splendid Soldier': The Life Of My Great-Grandfather Major General George Bruce, Orson Fry
Senior Projects Spring 2017
When he was twenty-six years old, my grandfather John Aspinall discovered that his real father was a soldier who had fought and been decorated in both world wars. Thrilled, he began to track his father down and catch up on the lost years. Being a great raconteur, stories at once began trickling down the family line about this illustrious figure ‘Bruce’, each one more wonderful than the last. But a lot remained missing: who was this young man who had picked up four wounds on the Western Front and won medals for his leadership and gallantry? Who later commanded 28,000 …
The Temptation Of Sherlock Holmes: Aesthetics, Expectations, And The Gothic, Sarah M. Davin
The Temptation Of Sherlock Holmes: Aesthetics, Expectations, And The Gothic, Sarah M. Davin
Senior Projects Spring 2016
This thesis will be concerned with challenging the preconceptions of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes novels and stories, and how different readings of the text are revealed when those preconceptions are challenged. While the character of Sherlock Holmes is often considered as very scientific in nature, this thesis will attempt to challenge this, suggesting alternative readings of Holmes that might situate the character within a literary tradition rather than pretending that the Holmes character can somehow be psychoanalyzed or that his work as a detective in a text somehow directly interacted with the real world. By focusing on the …
