The Drama As A Factor In Americanization, Florence Scott Van Gilder

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The main objective before us is to determine how the drama, in its several forms, may be so utilized as to bring about and further Americanization. In attempting to make this theory clear to those who may be more or less unfamiliar with the idea, it will be necessary to consider the definition of Americanization, and to make some decision as to who may be Americanized. It will also be necessary to review, rather briefly, the origin and development of the drama, that it may be seen why drama has been elected as our medium.

There have been several difficulties …

The Structure Of The Gothic Romance And Its Influence On Poe, Catherine Doyle

Bachelors’ Theses

The tale of terror has thrilled men of all ages. Man desires, not only to be amused, but also to be roused to pity and terror. The ancient people wondered at the might of the thunder-bolt, the swiftness of the lightening, the rising of the sun. They invented tales personifying the elements, inspiring awe and terror.

The Influence Of Politics On The Press Is Waning, Julia Margaret Kearney

Bachelors’ Theses

One of the outstanding characteristics of present day journalism is the absence of political influence on the press, which was so prevalent several decades past. It would be an exceedingly difficult matter to definitely point out a paper, which is really important and influential, as a party organ. They are of course, many large dailies which favor certain parties in general, but no important newspaper is guided al together in its whole editorial policy by politics. Politics has completely lost its former control of the press. One by one the party organs are vanishing and becoming obsolete or they are …

The Influence Of Ibsen On The English Drama; With Reference To Pinero And Shaw, Elvira Ritter

Bachelors’ Theses

The modern Theatre is the Theatre of experiment. It is a product of the age of Reason, in which everything is looked on with suspicion until a plausible scientific theory is advanced to dignify it with the garb of authority. At a time when the critical and uncritical people which make up any audience preferred to have all articles labeled before purchasing, this pigeonholing mania had been advanced to the extent of naming dramatists, novelists, and poets according to their type of thinking.

Sensationalism In Dickens, Lorraine Catherine Kusta

Bachelors’ Theses

Dickens once said, that a book of all things ought " to stand, by itself. It is a picture of life but one that not only portrays but shows the significance of its subject. Its form is uniquely elastic because its art is the handmaid of its purpose which is to illustrate the true and aggrandize the good, as well as to express the beautiful. Its sole artistic standard is fitness; its measure the adaptedness of means to end. Dealing in this way with all of life, it is not sufficient for the novelist to love like Keats "the principle …

Virgil's Legacy To Milton, Margaret Mary Nagle

Bachelors’ Theses

Poetry is vitally the translation or interpretation of life in its highest terms. In its advance through the centuries, it gives expression to man's attempt to find, under the confused appearance of things as we see them, life's real truth and beauty. Latin poetry is one of the great incarnations of this endless progress through the ages and the Prince of Poets, Virgil, stands in one of the foremost places in the line of torch-bearers. The masterpieces of Latin literature are of great importance in the present age. They are supreme works of art,of an excellence unsurpassed and in some …

Cicero's Belief In The Immortality Of The Soul, Madeleine Julian Donahue

Bachelors’ Theses

In the darkness before the dawn of Christianity, Marcus Tullius Cicero, the pagan philosopher and moralist, lived. He was of that last generation~ floundering in a world devoid of all religion, blank as to any ideas of a God. Religion only meant gods as things to swear by, or things to be amused by, or things from which, if times were bad, some doubtful assistance might perchance come. It was a century in which the old religions had lost their hold, and Christianity had not yet emerged.

Increasing Newspaper Circulation, Silvester N. Scherer

Bachelors’ Theses

In considering the successful financial enterprises in the country today it is shocking to note what a small number of newspapers can be properly listed amongst them. There are proportionately more newspaper businesses operating at a loss than any other kind. Regarding the commercial value of its output each year the publishing and printing industry ranks sixth in the nation, but in credit it is at the bottom of the list.
