I Never Saw The Llightning, Martin Luther! A Compositional Model, Donald J. Davenport

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The problems of composition, and specifically the problems of organizing and creating sustained narrative writing, often can be brought to light best through the use of a working model. l Never Saw the Lightning, Martin Luther! discusses the problems associated with prewriting structure, point of view, and thematic considerations-as well as techniques of editing and unifying the continuity of a manuscript. These techniques are written as a preface, a "process paper,'' to the novel length piece of original, religious fiction which follows, serving as a model to exemplify the process of composition. Specific scenes, stylistic features, theme and plot considerations …

Anna Crimson And The Dryad, Joan Henson

The Angle

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

"Once upon a time in a deep pine forest dwelled a solitary wisp - a creature no higher than tansy or thistle - who hovered and wandered between the trees as moths do in quiet, unobtrusive flutters. She flew without shadow in a world entirely of shade, and she flew wingless, trailing sheens of gossamer - rising on the slightest breeze as dandelion and milkweed seeds fluff away in the meadows beyond forests."

Give Me A Widow, Anytime, Nancy O'Donnell

The Angle

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

"I've always been particularly attracted to widows. There is a beautifully bruised quality about them. They retain this quality long after their husbands have congealed in the satin seams of their great mahogany coffins. When widows make it with a man, it always has a sweet scent of hesitation in it. They're not used to a new man. They're not sure they'll like it. They're not sure their husbands would approve. They're just not sure. Afterwards, they're in a mild form of shock and by the time they recover, …

"An old man, maybe sixty, he lived not far from L'École St. Antoine, and I would see him limping around the school sometimes, but I did not take much notice. Kids in my second-grade class called him "le vieux Gidoone," because of his English accent, and sometimes he would lean against the schoolyard fence eyeing us as we played futbol during recess. Usually I hung around with Tu-tur Laroche, a third grader. Neither of us paid any attention to Monsieur Gidoone, until the day he called us …

"Sarah was not alone in the house but she was the only one awake at the time the doorbell rang. Her two children were sleeping in their rooms and she was working in her bedroom, according to her usual habit. Every night after she pμt them to bed, she would write and think and read, non-fiction, mostly, because she wrote poetry and the way she did it was to throw out from herself, like a spider, a sticky web of intelligence-gathering that caught in it everything that wandered by. …

Selected Poems Of Abdul Ghafar Ibrahim, Abdul Ghafar Ibrahim

Masters Theses

Is poetry art or is art poetry? Or what is poetry? What is art? There is art in creating poetry. And there are the poetic elements in creating painting/any form of art.

I have been involved in writing poetry since I was in high school. My first poem was published in 1965. During that time I also received formal training in art. Writing poetry to me then was only putting together words and phrases into ideas and stories. And painting to me at that time was selecting and juxtaposing colors into beautiful pictures on canvas.

Man changes in ideas, ideals …
