Exploring French Short Stories: Guy De Maupassant's Writing Style And Social Justice, Gielle Kuhn 2016 Andrews University

Exploring French Short Stories: Guy De Maupassant's Writing Style And Social Justice, Gielle Kuhn

Honors Theses

This project explores the connection between French author Guy de Maupassant’s pessimist writing style and his observations of 19th century French social classes. A literary analysis of two of Maupassant’s short stories, La Parure and Le Gueux, determines key elements of pessimism, naturalism, realism and an unequal class structure, which discriminates between the peasantry, the working class, and the rich bourgeois. My research aims to demonstrate evidence that Maupassant uses a pessimistic writing style to advocate for social justice.

Mille-Feuille: 1. du latin millefolium, nom vulgaire d'une espèce d'achillée dont les feuilles sont très finement découpées en tous sens.

“The Languages Of Other People”: The Experiences Of Tutors, Administrators, And Students In A South African Multilingual Writing Center, Nicole Bailey 2016 Indiana State University

“The Languages Of Other People”: The Experiences Of Tutors, Administrators, And Students In A South African Multilingual Writing Center, Nicole Bailey

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This ethnography, conducted at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, conveys the experiences of tutors, students, and administrators in a multilingual writing lab. As the number of both multilingual and international students in American universities increases, more writing centers in the United States have begun to explore the idea of multilingual tutoring. This study offers implications for establishing American multilingual writing centers based on data that emerged from observations and interviews conducted at Stellenbosch. Several themes emerged from the data that have important implications for American centers. First, there must be a clear understanding of what defines a multilingual writing center. …

Agonie | The Agony, Jerry Auld, Gilles Mossiere

The Goose

Un accident d’alpinisme s’est produit en 1920 près du mont Assiniboine dans les Rocheuses canadiennes. Le professeur Winthrop E. Stone fit une chute mortelle après s’être décordé sous le sommet du mont Eon ; sa femme Margaret, n’ayant pu compléter la descente, dut attendre les secours pendant sept jours, sans eau, nourriture ni vêtements chauds. Cette tragédie la marqua à vie, et elle n’en reparla jamais. Jon Whyte, écrivain de Banff, s’est inspiré de ces événements dans The Agony of Mrs. Stone, poème publié en 1977, qui sert de toile de fond à cette nouvelle. / A climbing accident took …


Redefining Place Through The Mazarinades: The Pont-Neuf And The Place Royale, Nathan Kent Jellen 2016 Brigham Young University - Provo

Redefining Place Through The Mazarinades: The Pont-Neuf And The Place Royale, Nathan Kent Jellen

Theses and Dissertations

In 1649, during the Fronde Parlementaire (1648-1650), Paris was teetering between opposing political camps that were trying to seize control of the city. The city's bourgeois parliament, in open rebellion to the political policies of King Louis XIV's Chief Minister, Cardinal Jules Mazarin, was raising an army and threatening to oust the Italian imposter. With the rise in violence within the city limits, Parisian printers and booksellers began circulating political propaganda in the form of booklets, mini-plays, brochures, and pamphlets that came to be known as mazarinades. Because these mazarinades—which took their name from the very man they were either …


La Littérature Fantastique Contemporaine : Une Quête Identitaire, Jared Scott Miller 2016 Brigham Young University - Provo

La Littérature Fantastique Contemporaine : Une Quête Identitaire, Jared Scott Miller

Theses and Dissertations

Habituellement, quand on pense à la littérature fantastique, on pense à un genre limité au dix-neuvième siècle. Néanmoins, certaines œuvres contemporaines semblent également correspondre à ce genre, et ceci malgré les théories traditionnelles des critiques littéraires qui excluraient cette possibilité. En soutenant les appels récents pour une définition du genre plus inclusive, on peut aborder la question d’un fantastique contemporain dans la littérature française. Pour trouver ce nouveau fantastique, il suffit de regarder les œuvres d’Éric Fottorino et Didier Van Cauwelaert. Leurs romans montrent une continuité du genre traditionnel, ce qui est évident quand on étudie les similarités de thèmes …
