A Political Portrait: FéLix Varela Y Morales, 1788-1853, Gemma Marie Del Duca

American Studies ETDs

This is a political portrait of a Cuban priest and patriot, Félix Varela y Morales. One of the most fascinating and influential figures in the great history of Cuba during the 19^th century, he moved easily from philosophy and science to politics and finally to theology. Others have dealt in some detail with Varela’s accomplishments as reformer and teacher of philosophy in Cuba (Antonio Hernández Travieso) and as Catholic apologist and priest in New York (José Ignacio Rodríguez, Doctor Joseph McCadden.) A few Cuban scholars have examined phases of Félix Varela’s political career, but thus far no single work …

Everyman's Usable Past: The American Historical Novel, Joel Mackey Jones

American Studies ETDs

The intent of this dissertation will be to define, and by defining defend, an art form too often disdained as being a literary mélange des genres—the American historical novel.

Nevada Southern Presents Fifth Annual Holiday Basketball Classic, University Of Nevada, Las Vegas

UNLV Basketball Programs

One of the positive ways the image of Las Vegas is being changed locally and throughout the nation is the emphasis placed on its excellent school system from kindergarten through Nevada Southern University. Southern Nevada, like many communities throughout the United States, is fast coming to realize that the development of a successful intercollegiate athletic program as an important part of the total educational program, is providing a sound national reputation which is contributing directly to the physical and academic growth of the school-and to the area.

The benefits of this concentration on education, especially at the college level, can …

The Literary Reputation Of F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Knight Elliott

American Studies ETDs

The purpose of this study of the literary reputation of F. Scott Fitzgerald is to examine the aspects of Fitzgerald’s life and work which have been most frequently discussed by his American critics and thus to discover the foundations of his reputation. The criticism used for the study covers the forty-five-year period from the publication of Fitzgerald’s first novel in 1920 to the end of 1964. The study is limited to American criticism because the novels and stories deal with distinctly American themes, materials, and values; because they have enjoyed great popularity among Americans, and because a thorough appreciation of …

The New Western: Studies In Modern Western American Fiction, Gerald John Brenner

American Studies ETDs

This is a study of a handful of American novels, all of them written since 1939, all of them concerned in some manner with the American West. I have chosen 1939 as a beginning point for the study because it was then that Walter Van Tilburg Clark published The Ox-Bow Incident, a novel which took many of the standard in­gredients of the stereotyped "Western and turned them to the uses of serious fiction. Unlike the hacks who followed the formula for success established by the dime novels and Zane Grey, and who dealt in fiction as in an earlier time …
