Shakespeare And Cervantes Are Dead: The Construction Of Fiction And Reality In Hamlet And Don Quixote, Joanna Parypinski 2011 Butler University

Shakespeare And Cervantes Are Dead: The Construction Of Fiction And Reality In Hamlet And Don Quixote, Joanna Parypinski

Undergraduate Honors Thesis Collection

The reason that Hamlet and Don Quixote can be studied so thoroughly on the poststructuralist notion of a false or constructed reality is because they were both works far ahead of their time, often reflecting extremely postmodernist ideas. Don Quixote is generally considered the first modern novel, and Hamlet is also identified with the beginning of the modern age (Oort 319). Yet beyond this, these authors play games with the reader and with the structure of the fiction itself, which would fit sensibly in a 20th or 21st century novel rather than an early 17th century work. These new methods …


Cross-Cultural Educational Fallbacks: A Study Of Homeschooling In The Hispanic Community And The Reasons For Its Utilization, Luke Easterday 2011 Valparaiso University

Cross-Cultural Educational Fallbacks: A Study Of Homeschooling In The Hispanic Community And The Reasons For Its Utilization, Luke Easterday

Symposium on Research and Creative Expression (SORCE)

A popular belief held by many Americans is that Caucasian families homeschool based on a desire to shield their children from the outside world and to pass on particular religious beliefs. However, among the Hispanic community, homeschooling is often implemented due to a lack of resources in the community. Many Hispanic parents utilize this nontraditional educational method due to a desire to raise their children bilingually, to pass on their cultural heritage, and to have an active role in the academic lives of their children. Quite often, the communities in which Hispanic families live do not have many resources available …


The Aspiration Of The Spanish Grapheme ‘H’, Carolina Gonzalo-Llera 2011 Western Michigan University

The Aspiration Of The Spanish Grapheme ‘H’, Carolina Gonzalo-Llera

Research and Creative Activities Poster Day

One aspect of Spanish pronunciation that differs from English pronunciation is the phonetic treatment of the letter ‘h’. While this grapheme corresponds to a voiceless glottal fricative [h] in English (also known as “aspirated [h]”), it has no phonetic realization in Spanish. In other words, the letter ‘h’ in Spanish is not pronounced at all or is “silent”. This difference often results in Spanish pronunciation errors by L2 learners of the language. The present study aims to deepen our understanding of the erroneous pronunciation of ‘h’ by exploring how prevalent the error really is in the speech of beginning and …

Leisure And Agrarian Reform: Liberal Governance In The Traveling Museums Of Spanish Misiones Pedagógicas (1931–1933), Eugenia Afinoguénova 2011 Marquette University

Leisure And Agrarian Reform: Liberal Governance In The Traveling Museums Of Spanish Misiones Pedagógicas (1931–1933), Eugenia Afinoguénova

Spanish Languages and Literatures Research and Publications

This article examines the program of bringing itinerant art museums to the rural areas implemented by the Misiones Pedagógicas of Spain’s Second Republic. My analysis seeks to answer the following questions: a) Why did the government support these initiatives while peasants were using violence to contest its agrarian reform? b) How did museums fit into the Republic’s program of public education? And 3) how did they treat the peasants' own culture? Tracing the philosophical foundations of the Museo del Pueblo in Manuel Bartolomé de Cosso's (1857–1935) theory of leisure, I discuss Cosso's indebtedness to late-Victorian uses of art education for …
