El Aspecto Humanitario De La Obra Literaria De Camilo Jose Cela, Jean T.A. Page Jan 1989

El Aspecto Humanitario De La Obra Literaria De Camilo Jose Cela, Jean T.A. Page

Theses : Honours

The aim of this study is to demonstrate a particular aspect of Camilo Jose Cela’s writing, that is, his sympathy and concern for the underprivileged and those people alienated from the mainstream of society. It will thereby endeavour to reveal Cela’s deep understanding of the human condition. This thesis analyses four of Cela’s works, namely, La familia de Pascual, La calmena, Viole a la Alcarria and San Camilo 36 and compares two of them, La calmeno and San Camilo 36. The study concludes with a detailed look Cela's treatment of humanitarian issues, a literary quality that explains why this author …


Two Halves Into The Water, Michael Kuo Jan 1989

Two Halves Into The Water, Michael Kuo

Masters Theses

In my introductory essay (“The Dying Star: Character in Contemporary Fiction”) I argue that the contemporary fiction writer views character in a new way, breaking with traditional fiction theory and its dependence on the Cartesian division of Self and Other. The contemporary writer “finds Descartes’ division of Self and Other impotent, turning instead to a vision of character in which there are no certainties; a character in contemporary fiction cannot necessarily come to ‘know herself’ or the world around her.” I trace the influence of Descartes in a wide variety of traditional fiction and theory, and then propose a new …


Desire: An Essential Element In Wallace Stevens' Poetry, Barry Gary Dec 1988

Desire: An Essential Element In Wallace Stevens' Poetry, Barry Gary

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Man naturally pursues that which brings pleasure, and Wallace Stevens recognizes this inescapable desire, exploring it fully in his poetry, prose, and letters and depending upon it to build the foundation for many, if not most, of his major themes. For Stevens, one's world evolves through the use of poetry, and this world, complete with jubilations of fulfilled desire and frequent despair as illusions of fulfillment are destroyed, chronicles the life of every man. As a result, different kinds of desire and different attempts at satisfying these desires emerge as one reads Stevens--three of which will be advanced in this …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

The fiction of William Burroughs focuses on control and the illusion of personal freedom, a situation JOHN Z. GUZLOWSKI finds reinforced in the author's treatment of the family. A teacher in the English Department of Eastern Illinois University and Editor of Karamu, a poetry and fiction magazine, Guzlowski’s work on recent American fiction has appeared in a variety of journals.

Ways of understanding can at times become ways of avoiding reality and real comprehension. Such was the case in Edith Wharton’s Old New York, as discussed by DAVID A. GODFREY. Currently a lecturer at the …

The Color Of Life And Other Stories, Mary Jane Oksanen Morewitz Oct 1988

The Color Of Life And Other Stories, Mary Jane Oksanen Morewitz

English Theses & Dissertations

Loss is an inherent part of life. There are losses which we understand as necessary for growth, such as the loss of childhood, and seemingly senseless losses, such as the death of a child or the loss of a sane self, which are more difficult to accept. We often feel threatened with a sense of loss when our lives are about to change.

The stories in this collection deal with various aspects of loss. The characters in the following stories encounter all types of loss and just as there is no singular loss, there is no one resolution. What is …


Discovery And Denial: Exploring Reality And Possibility In Original Prose, Deborah Porter Bryson Oct 1988

Discovery And Denial: Exploring Reality And Possibility In Original Prose, Deborah Porter Bryson

English Theses & Dissertations

All of us, even those who never stray far from home, are embarked on a series of journeys throughout our lives. We are constantly growing and discovering. Our relationships with other people bring us our greatest pleasure and, all too frequently, our greatest pain.

In my collection of original prose, which includes both nonfiction and fiction, I have chosen to explore family relationships. In "Following the Ship," I have written about a journey I shared with my own daughter. It is a personal and introspective journal about a universal voyage of discovery, that of mother and daughter growing together.

JUDITH WEISSMAN revisions the later work of Emily Dickinson as that of a lucid, sane, generous, less volcanic woman more at ease with herself and her beliefs. A specialist in nineteenth-century poetry and fiction and Professor of English at Syracuse University, Weissman published Half Savage and Hardy and Free: Woman and Rural Radicalism in the Nineteenth-Century Novel last year. She is presently working on a book dealing with poetry and the theory of the bicameral mind.

A Study Of The Effects Of Writing Instruction Versus Writing And Reading Instruction On 10th Grade English Students, Patricia E.G. Craig Jun 1988

A Study Of The Effects Of Writing Instruction Versus Writing And Reading Instruction On 10th Grade English Students, Patricia E.G. Craig

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The effects of writing instruction as opposed to writing and reading instruction were studied on 10th grade English students’ reading comprehension and writing. Two groups (classes) completed pretests and pre-sample writing. Then, both groups were given writing instruction while only one group was given related reading skills instruction. Finally, both groups completed posttests and post-sample writings.

An analysis of covariance of the pre-and posttest data was done. It revealed no significant difference between the two groups related to reading comprehension. However, a significant difference existed between the two groups related to language expression (editing skills or writing sub-skills). The …
