The Childlike Hobbit, Tisa Ho
The Childlike Hobbit, Tisa Ho
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Considers aspects of the depiction of hobbits in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings that emphasize their childlike qualities, and considers questions of the significance of this depiction and of the intended audience for these works.
A Retelling Within A Myth Retold: The Priest Of Essur And Lewisian Mythopoetics, Peter J. Schakel
A Retelling Within A Myth Retold: The Priest Of Essur And Lewisian Mythopoetics, Peter J. Schakel
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Asks why Lewis felt the myth of Cupid and Psyche needed to be retold. The story told by the Priest of Essur is a “middle step” between the original myth and Lewis’s recasting of it, in which the incomplete pagan notion of sacrifice gives way to the fullness of that theme in Christianity.
The Excellent Absurdity: Substitution And Co-Inherence In C.S. Lewis And Charles Williams, Nancy C. Hanger
The Excellent Absurdity: Substitution And Co-Inherence In C.S. Lewis And Charles Williams, Nancy C. Hanger

Cites examples of Williams’s notions of coinherence and exchange in both his works and those of Lewis.
Norse Mythological Elements In The Hobbit, Mitzi M. Brunsdale
Norse Mythological Elements In The Hobbit, Mitzi M. Brunsdale
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Considers the influence of Norse mythology on The Hobbit in particular, both in story elements and in “Northern courage.” Asserts that in The Hobbit, Tolkien “bases each of the major elements of the quest on an identifiably Northern mythological source.” Sees the moral choices presented in The Hobbit as characteristic of those faced by the “stern heroes of Northern myths” and important to children, whose notions of right and wrong are more basic than those of adults.

The Origin Of Gandalf And Josef Madlener, Manfred Zimmerman
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Disputes the story in Carpenter’s biography about the origin of Gandalf in a picture postcard Tolkien acquired in 1911, pointing out that the painting on which the postcard was based was painted in 1925 or later.
The Fisher King In That Hideous Strength, Ellen Rawson
The Fisher King In That Hideous Strength, Ellen Rawson
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Notes how Ransom’s persona in That Hideous Strength as a modern Fisher King “contributes to Lewis’s idea of Logres versus Britain.” Notes parallels between the legend of the Fisher King and events of That Hideous Strength.

Isabel's Sexual Drama, Barbara Pinson
Isabel's Sexual Drama, Barbara Pinson
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Henry James, Jr. (1843-1916) has had a greater impact on the world of the novel than any other writer. The greatest controversy surrounding this most prolific of American authors and critics Concerns the area of sexual passion. The most insidious criticism leveled against James is that he and his characters lack sexuality. The whole problem is epitomized in this perusal of the sexual consciousness of Isabel Archer Osmond, the famous heroine in The Portrait of a Lady. While many critics simply ignore Isabel's sexuality, many others are less discerning than they should be, and some are absolutely mistaken: they …

Rediscovering James T. Farrell, Charles Fanning
Rediscovering James T. Farrell, Charles Fanning
Bridgewater Review
No major American writer has been worse served by criticism than James T. Farrell. After the publication in 1935 of his first fictional series, the Studs Lonigan trilogy, Farrell labored for four decades under an unjust and unfounded critical accusation. During these years, many influential critics dealt with his fiction as it appeared by mechanical citation of a party line which ran as follows: "James T. Farrell is that sad case, a one-book writer. Studs Lonigan is credible fiction, albeit in the limiting and dated naturalistic mode pioneered by Theodore Dreiser. But his subsequent novels have been obsessive reworkings of …

Blake, Hegel And Dialectic [Review], Michael Fischer
Blake, Hegel And Dialectic [Review], Michael Fischer
English Faculty Research
According to David Punter, "Blake's dialectic and Hegel's share a number of crucial features" (p. 11), making Hegel's Phenomenology the "closest parallel to [Blake's] work" (p. 17). By emphasizing progression through contraries, both Blake and Hegel transform the dialectical tradition that they presumably inherit from Heraclitus, Giordano Bruno, and Jakob Böhme, all of whom Punter analyzes in his opening chapter. Subsequent chapters trace the similarities that Punter finds among such works as the Phenomenology, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, and The Four Zoas. Although Punter calls his comparison of Blake and Hegel "important and fruitful" (p. …
