Peeling The Onion: Satire And The Complexity Of Audience Response, Jane Fife
Peeling The Onion: Satire And The Complexity Of Audience Response, Jane Fife
English Faculty Publications
Satire is a popular form of comedic social critique frequently theorized in terms of Kenneth Burke’s comic frame. While its humor and unexpected combination of incongruous elements can reduce tension that surrounds controversial issues to make new perspectives more accessible, audience response to satire can vary tremendously—including the very negative as well as the very positive. Teaching satire should include exposure to rhetorical theory and audience reception analysis to better prepare students as consumers and creators of satires. With a complex, layered pedagogy, satire can be an important component of the twenty-first-century rhetor’s toolkit.

Stain Upon The Silence: Samuel Beckett’S Deconstructive Inventions, Leigh Howard
Stain Upon The Silence: Samuel Beckett’S Deconstructive Inventions, Leigh Howard
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
In recent years, deconstruction theory has emerged as a key method for exploring public address, organizational culture, and literary discourse. Deconstruction theory encourages tearing apart hierarchy and established order to gain insights about the artifact being studied. Furthermore, the theory questions surface or superficial messages and encourages the reader to explore signals hidden below the surface. Deconstruction discounts context and places faith in experience.
Using the early plays of Samuel Beckett, this research explores deconstruction as a method to create messages. This new perspective transports deconstruction from a set of theoretical concepts into basic assumptions that enhance communication. This study …

Literary Portraits Of The Pharisees In The Gospels Of Mark And Matthew, Michael R. Cosby
Literary Portraits Of The Pharisees In The Gospels Of Mark And Matthew, Michael R. Cosby
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Due to the often inadequate methodology employed by scholars studying the pre-A.D. 70 Pharisees, new approaches are needed for analyzing the primary sources. Careful attention must be given to the literary genres of the four ancient sources of information on the Pharisees: the Psalms of Solomon, the New Testament, the writings of Josephus, and the rabbinic literature. As an example of such sensitivity to the ancient authors’ purposes in writing and to the literary genres they employed in conveying their information, this study uses the Gospels of Mark and Matthew as test cases.
Careful analysis of authorial purpose, as revealed …
