Thomas Hardy : A Study; Suffering, Human Will, And Grace In The Major Novels, Russell E. Borland Jan 1973

Thomas Hardy : A Study; Suffering, Human Will, And Grace In The Major Novels, Russell E. Borland

Dissertations and Theses

This thesis concentrates on human relations and the potential for man’s beatitude in Hardy’s major novels through an exploration of suffering, human will, evolutionary meliorism, and Grace, discussed in separate chapters. Chapter I is devoted to an introduction of the major elements of what is here called Hardy’s vision. Relying largely on Florence Emily Hardy’s The Life of Thomas Hardy and on references to some of the novels, a compilation of impressions is arranged into what seems to represent accurately the basic nature of the world and human relations in Hardy’s novels. The emphasis and the thrust of the vision …

The Crucible Of Conversation: A Study Of Jamesean Dialogue, Betsy B. Aswad Jan 1973

The Crucible Of Conversation: A Study Of Jamesean Dialogue, Betsy B. Aswad

Graduate Dissertations and Theses

My own initial bemused reaction to the language of Henry James I can place in a classroom in 1960 where, with a class of fellow English majors—-old hands, all of us, at Faulkner and Joyce–I was, in the first chapters of The Wings of the Dove, as “awfully at sea” as Merton Densher was when he first met Kate Croy. A timid question drew from the professor probably the best advice that can be given to a novice at reading James: “You can't just skim James, you know; you have to read every word.” Later, teaching The Turn of the …


An Examination Of The Sacramental Vision Of Dylan Thomas: Its Sources, Analogues And Its Expression In His Poetry, Margaret A. Hardesty Jan 1973

An Examination Of The Sacramental Vision Of Dylan Thomas: Its Sources, Analogues And Its Expression In His Poetry, Margaret A. Hardesty

Graduate Dissertations and Theses

Amid the twentieth-century prophets of man’s total and final disintegration, against the age’s portrayers of the incurable malaise and disease gripping society, the voice of Dylan Thomas sounds as a counterpoint, evincing a note of optimism for man and society, expressing a hope that both might achieve reintegration, and, thereby, a new life. This optimistic note, this expression of hope evolved from a vision which gradually possessed Thomas and became the lodestar of all his poetic endeavors. He moved away from an uneasy, pessimistic pantheism in his youth to a firm joyousness in the conviction that all things are holy …


Sir Thomas Wyatt And The Struggle Of The "Weried Mynde", Susan Eichenfeld Ashton Jan 1973

Sir Thomas Wyatt And The Struggle Of The "Weried Mynde", Susan Eichenfeld Ashton

Dissertations

When the poetry of Sir Thomas Wyatt has attracted critical attention at all, it has been both praised and blamed for a variety of reasons, often the wrong reasons. Wyatt's role in the historical development of English verse, as the poet who introduced such forms as the sonnet, the rondeau, and terza-rima into English poetry, has been emphasized, while the originality and innovativeness of his poetry have been largely neglected,

A Close Reading Of Tennyson's Maud, Lucy Marks Jan 1973

A Close Reading Of Tennyson's Maud, Lucy Marks

Honors Papers

"We now turn with diminished pleasure from In Memoriam to Mr. Tennyson's recently published volume of Maud and Other Poems: for the qualities we appreciate most highly in the former are precisely those which are most wanting in the latter." Thus the writer for the Edinburgh Review summed up the reaction of dismay and distaste reflected in the many notoriously adverse reviews that Maud received when it was published in the fall of 1855. Following five years after the almost universally-praised elegy for Arthur Henry Hallam, it put forth as protagonist a madman positing unacceptable solutions to social evils, and …


The Indian Captivity Narrative: An American Genre, Richard Van Der Beets Jan 1973

The Indian Captivity Narrative: An American Genre, Richard Van Der Beets

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The vast body of Indian captivity narratives is known mostly to historians, anthropologists, and collectors of Americana. In the rare instances where informed scholarship has turned its attention to the narratives, emphasis has been upon the historical and cultural rather than the literary value of the tales. The Indian captivity narrative has been most commonly viewed as but a thread in the loose fabric of American cultural history, consisting of several "popular," sub-literary genres shaped and differentiated largely by the society for which the narratives were intended. The intention in this study is not so much to overturn that view …


A Morphological-Poetic Approach To Hemingway's "Up In Michigan", George Robert Cripe Jan 1973

A Morphological-Poetic Approach To Hemingway's "Up In Michigan", George Robert Cripe

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Hemingway’s first short story, “Up in Michigan,” portrays the growth and destruction of a young girls’ romantic illusions about love through her infatuation with and seduction by an apparently gentleman who is really an insensitive brute. Hemingway explores this typically anti-romantic theme in what appears at first glance to be straightforward journalistic style. But the prose, like almost everything else in this story, is deceptive, for lurking beneath the flat surface of its denotative diction and simple syntax lie linguistics strategies and dynamically charged meanings through whose interplay the real disillusioning world of the story emerges. In thus concealing the …


The Divided Consciousness In Charles Dickens' Hard Times, Earl Paul Seymour Jan 1973

The Divided Consciousness In Charles Dickens' Hard Times, Earl Paul Seymour

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

What I shall do in this paper is apply Frye’s concept of romance to Hard Times, i.e., Frye's defining romance as a device for using archetypes. The novel, as Frye sees it, is a vehicle whereby “realism” or life-like representation is applied. Hard Times contains “stylized figures” which thematically and formalistically support the dehumanization concept Dickens is portraying. Thus Dickens turned, as it were, toward a potentially revolutionary form within which to accomodate what is in many ways his most original piece of writing.

Responses Of Students To An Introduction To Literature Class Compared With Responses Of The Same Students To High School Literature Classes, Warren E. Ask

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The purpose of this study was to investigate responses of students to an Introduction to Literature class taught by Mr. Alden Hanson at the University of Northern Iowa during the spring term of 1972 compared with responses of the same students to their high school literature classes. Four sources of information were used to gather data for the investigation: 1) At the beginning of the semester Mr. Hanson assigned a paper in which the students discussed their previous experiences with literature in former English and literature classes, their feelings toward literature and the study of literature, the types of literature …
