Book Reviews: Divided Houses, Shaun O'Connell

New England Journal of Public Policy

These books are an odd lot, landscapes and structures of eccentric designs: (1) a collection of stories by Frank Conroy, his first book since Stop Time (1967). Where Stop Time was a detailed, narrative autobiography that read like fiction, Midair is an often generalized, fragmented fiction with obvious autobiographical implications; (2) the weird diary of Arthur Crew Inman, over 1,600 pages of his often vile obsessions, handsomely edited and curiously published by Harvard University Press; (3) a study of nuclear anxiety over five decades, in the form of a polemical novel, by Tim O'Brien; (4) a collection of poems, also …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

Playing JOHN C. BURNHAM's new parlor game, "Who Is Now Great?” unexpectedly forms a negative consensus: the great men and women, like the dinosaurs, seem to belong to an earlier time, not to our own. The author wonders why, and shares his thoughts on the past, present, and future of greatness. Professor of History at The Ohio State University, with a scholarly interest in the history of psychiatry and American medical and social history, Burnham' s most recent book is on the psychoanalyst and physician Jelliffe.

Concrete Poetry: The Influence Of Design And Marketing On Aesthetics, Tineke Bierma

Dissertations and Theses

This thesis explores the past and present of concrete poetry with the purpose of finding out whether concrete poetry is still being produced in its original form, or whether it has changed.

Concrete poets were not the first ones to create picture poems and similar texts. In chapter I an overview of earlier picture poetry is given. It and other precursors of concrete poetry are discussed and their possible contributions evaluated.

Chapters II and III deal with the definition of concrete poetry of the mid-fifties and sixties (pure, classic c.p.). They focus primarily on German, Austrian and Swiss poets. Manifestos …

The waters of historical research abound with shoals, whirlpools, and uncharted, if not unimportant, wastes. VIRGINIA J. LAAS relates one such encounter on a voyage of discovery related to the biography of Rear Admiral Samuel Phillips Lee she undertook with Dudley T. Cornish, a successful and altogether fortuitous collaboration which benefitted both scholars and their profession. The book which resulted, entitled The Life of Rear Admiral Samuel Phillips Lee, U.S. Navy, will be published in early 1986 by The University Press of Kansas. The marriage in 1843 of the young naval officer, then a Lieutenant …

"Only She Who Says She Did Not Choose, Is The Loser In The End." The Significance Of Conscious Choice: Four Original Stories, Ellen C. Barclay

English Theses & Dissertations

In the following collection of short stories, I examine some of the ways people face the decisions that affect their lives. In "Smoke Signals" and "Thin Ice," the protagonists make decisions that allow them to change and grow. The protagonist of "Postcard From L.A." makes a conscious decision to change, but that change will not lead to personal growth. In the final story, "Honeymoon in the Great Rift Valley, the protagonist chooses against changing her situation, even though she is aware this decision will inhibit her growth.

In all of these stories, negative emotions provide the catalyst for change and …

Living Reflections, Lorane Leavy

Institute for the Humanities Theses

The following works fall into three general categories--non-fiction, fiction, and the psychological analysis of this prose.

Three styles of non-fiction are represented: Creative non-fiction in which the events from a life experience are set forth in a narrative style; magazine journalism which incorporates the research, interviewing skills and informal yet accurate representation attendant to the genre; and a combination of reportorial journalism and the essay forms utilized to recount appropriately a highly personal event while maintaining the· distance necessary to inform and educate.

The short story meets the criteria for form and time frame and addresses a current issue.

A Journey Inward : Initiation In Katherine Anne Porter's Miranda Stories, Anne Lobdell

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Tracing the initiation motif in Katharine Anne Porter's "Miranda stories" uncovers her maturing protagonist's search for order and personal truth. Miranda's inward journey ultimately leads not to nihilism and despair, as some critics suggest, but to an honest and courageous affirmation of the independent spirit.

Porter's fiction involving Miranda and her family background reveal varying stages of this maturing that, together with parallel theories of initiation, fall into critic Mordecai Marcus' paradigm of initiation types. The "tentative" initiation stories only brush the child Miranda's awareness and deal primarily with the external world. They include "The Circus," marking an "emotional" initiation …

The man who created the child-spies of 1984, JONATHAN ROSE makes clear in his examination of George Orwell, was a writer filled with nostalgia for childhood. Assistant Professor of History at Drew University in New Jersey, Rose has recently completed a book-length manuscript on the intellectual history of Edwardian Britain and hopes to launch a scholarly journal devoted to the life and works of George Orwell.

Though current society has distanced them from us, the women of Edwardian problem plays, argues SUSAN L. CARLSON, do have something to tell us about our own social …

Professor Richardson Et Al.: A New England Education, George V. Higgins

New England Journal of Public Policy

George V. Higgins contributes to the series on the New England state of mind, identifying "a New England code of acceptable behavior" whose hallmarks are discretion "and a sense of decency, still powerful enough to prompt even those flouting it, and getting caught, to feel a sense of guilt."
