Novella, Sydney German
Novella, Sydney German
Student Research Submissions
This paper was written for ENGL 470B:1 – Seminar: Creative Writing Fiction under the instruction of Dr. Ray Levy, and the project is titled Novella while the story is called Unforeseeable. It is an 11,000-word sensational, suspenseful psychological fiction about Ava Reed, a 22-year-old woman, who is on a search for independence and freedom from her small town. The story begins by immediately diving into the scene of a murder with Ava holding the weapon. From there, the story works backward to slowly reveal the motive and the true account of what took place that night. It focuses primarily …
Documents And The Malady Of Truth, Ronald E. Day
Documents And The Malady Of Truth, Ronald E. Day
Proceedings from the Document Academy
This article discusses documents, knowledge, and truth through a conceptual examination and through an examination of Flaubert's 19th century novel Madame Bovary. It argues that the main characters of Madame Bovary deceive themselves by believing that the contents of the fictional and medical texts they read convey truth. In contrast, the article argues that modern knowledge is constituted by documentary evidence operating in knowledge networks and processes where the result of such operations is what can be claimed to be true about the world through such processes. The representational malady that Madame and Doctor Bovary suffer in the novel was …

Master of Arts in English Plan II Graduate Projects
Here is my final Master's Portfolio. I did not have specialization for the English program, so for the portfolio I chose four different projects that represent the variety of courses I have taken during my time here at BGSU.
The Reality Of Therapeutic Fictional Power: Students' Use Of Fiction As A Coping Mechanism, Miranda Judson
The Reality Of Therapeutic Fictional Power: Students' Use Of Fiction As A Coping Mechanism, Miranda Judson
Fall Student Research Symposium 2022
This research explores the benefits of leisure and assigned reading as a coping mechanism. In this research I discovered that fiction is a powerful coping mechanism. While research has been done on Bibliotherapy, the guided use of literature for patients, clients, or students, and similar fields, no research has been done specifically on fiction or the self-guided use of fiction as a coping mechanism. I surveyed and interviewed university English students who responded that they find fiction to be soothing and that they find insight to problems they're facing when they read. I discovered that students find more insight and …
“Literally, A Game-Changer”: Renegotiating The Aesthetics Of The Real, Moira Mckee
“Literally, A Game-Changer”: Renegotiating The Aesthetics Of The Real, Moira Mckee
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The affirmation of identity as a leitmotif throughout art history has become increasingly concerned with the conflation of the real and constructed, the material and immaterial, as technological developments engineer the fabric of reality with heightened sophistication. In the age of lifelike, digital avatar influencers such as Lil Miquela, Ai-Da, billed as “the world’s first ultra-realistic robot artist,” algorithms developed to create The Next Rembrandt, and the rise of crypto art and non-fungible tokens (NFT’s), the ambiguity or removal of the hand of the artist prompts questions surrounding identity as a visualization of the data that follows us and is …

Bodies In Transit: Women, War, And Violence In Select Fiction From Nepal, Lakhipriya Gogoi
Journal of International Women's Studies
The figures of women in conflict zones have been presented in South Asian literature chiefly as torn and battered bodies/souls, usually carrying an irremediable suffering and sense of loss that they bear as wives, mothers, and daughters while their male compatriots participate in the zone of war. The twentieth century surge in identity movements and political conflicts in South Asia, however, offers us new figures of women as “warriors” or direct participants in the zones of violence. The usurpation of such new bodies, on the one hand, defies the hegemonic feminization of women’s bodies as caregivers, and on the other …
Untitled Novel On Indoctrination And Mentorship, Jacquelyn Ferris
Untitled Novel On Indoctrination And Mentorship, Jacquelyn Ferris
WWU Honors College Senior Projects
A young man is alone in the company of his people. He searches and finds council from a stranger in a long red coat and his own search for a beaten rabbit; a deserter to his distant cause.
This is the first chapter to that much larger work in progress. We see our main character in a more peaceful headspace than what will soon come to him.

AWE (A Woman’s Experience)
“B, grab me my napkin, why don’t you,” Jim says, leaning back into the plush, bloodred chair at Spanky’s. Spanky’s is hardly a dinner date—I mean, it’s a sandwich place.
But it’s what Jim wants. And what he wants, he gets.
Still, I hesitate, thinking about telling him to just snatch it up off the ground himself. I’m not his slave. The napkin’s right in front of him.
