5. The Blessing Way, Draft, P.5-205., Tony Hillerman

The Blessing Way Manuscripts

This is a typed draft of The Blessing Way, which is quite similar to draft 4 (MSS 501 BC / B01-F04), in that the page formatting, ink and typewriter paper appear to be the same between the two. This draft is also missing pages 1-4. Light editing and correction are visible throughout.

6. The Blessing Way, Assorted Draft Pages And Notes., Tony Hillerman

The Blessing Way Manuscripts

This manuscript is not a formal draft per se; it appears to be a grouping of notes and rough drafts of individual chapters for The Blessing Way. The pages are heavily edited throughout.

1. The Blessing Way, Draft, P.1-168., Tony Hillerman

The Blessing Way Manuscripts

This is the initial draft of The Blessing Way; this version has been heavily edited by the author, including many corrections, and revisions. It appears that many editing marks were made with a soft lead black pencil. Hillerman also used a variety of different types of paper in this draft, including UNM letterhead paper.

4. The Blessing Way, Draft, P.5-225., Tony Hillerman

The Blessing Way Manuscripts

This draft was originally 225 typed pages, however pages 1-4 are missing. It appears that this draft has been edited by someone other than Tony Hillerman - the editing style is somewhat informal so it is possible that this draft was reviewed and edited by Hillerman's wife, Marie.

7. The Blessing Way, Edited Manuscript., Tony Hillerman

The Blessing Way Manuscripts

Written well before the popularization of email, it is apparent that this manuscript was exchanged several times between the author and the editor via regular mail, as there are initial editorial comments, then responses from the editor, and then further responses from the author all throughout the text.

The Ironic Dimension In Hawthorne's Short Fiction, Isidore H. Becker

English Language and Literature ETDs

While Nathaniel Hawthorne's tragic vision has been treated in depth in contemporary critical literature, his comic vision has received scant attention. One result of this trend has been to under-rate Hawthorne as a comic writer. Yet an analysis of his short fiction, both tales and sketches, reveals that Hawthorne was not deficient in the comic mode of writing. This dissertation takes up the problem of assessing Hawthorne as a comic writer, mainly from the point of view of irony.

Old Irish Influences Upon The Languages & Literature Of The Lord Of The Rings, Cory Seidman Panshin

Tolkien Journal

First looks at historical changes in Old Irish as possible sources for similar changes in the development of Sindarin from Quenya. Then considers the subject matter and rhyme scheme of “Eärendil,” Bilbo’s poem composed in Rivendell, and “Errantry,” its comic companion from The Adventures of Tom Bombadil, as similar in structure and subject matter to Old Irish “voyages” poems.

The Good Guys & The Bad Guys, Gracia Fay Ellwood

Tolkien Journal

Considers the popularity of The Lord of the Rings, with its unfashionably clear division of good and evil, as in part due to its appeal to the deep human need for stories embodying archetypes. Applies Jungian analysis and the theories of Joseph Campbell and Mircea Eliade to the story.
