Three Disappearances, Mari Lonano Polansky

English Theses & Dissertations

Language is the process through which we try to understand each other. As children we develop a sense of denotation; we learn how much better we can talk about the world if we can accurately identify "flower" as a “tulip", for example. Later on, syntax is added to the choices of words we pick and it colors the meaning and depth of what we can say; language is connotative as well as denotative. The complexity and richness of the options while putting together a poem bring us even closer to being able to express and understand ourselves …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

WILLIAM F. SMITH, JR., reveals the depth of meaning, both for students of the American Indian and for those seeking better to know the human personality, in the historical novel, Seven Arrows. Now Chairman of the English Department at Saginaw Valley State College in Michigan, Smith has published extensively on topics dealing with American Indian literature.

Joining the parliamentary and the presidential types of democratic government, according to WALTERS. G. KOHN, is a new, French model, the "presidential prerogative system." Author of many articles on politics in Liechtenstein and the rest of Western Europe, Kohn …

Character And Mood In Prose: Nine Original Pieces, Georgianna A. Schroeder

English Theses & Dissertations

This thesis in creative writing consists of both fiction and nonfiction. The fiction section includes three original short stories; the nonfiction, six original mood pieces.

My intention in writing the short stories is to portray the foibles of human nature while preserving the nobility of human character. I believe that all individuals possess the possibilities for good and evil and that their interactions with other individuals and their environments determine the realization of these possibilities in varying degrees.

The mood pieces are drawn from journal entries inspired by observations of life in Tidewater Virginia. The writings, both objective and introspective, …
