Swift's "Voyage To Laputa" And Its Place In Gulliver's Travels, Dorothy E. Handler Oct 1962

Swift's "Voyage To Laputa" And Its Place In Gulliver's Travels, Dorothy E. Handler

English Language and Literature ETDs

The writer believes and hopes to demonstrate that, despite its unusual qualities, the third voyage of Gulliver is neither unrelated nor markedly inferior to the rest of [Gulliver's Travels]. She also feels that the task of finding a unifying principle for this voyage and showing its importance to the whole is the foremost critical challenge posed by Gulliver's Travels at the present time. Raising this voyage to the general level of acclaim would appear a formidable task; however, the merits credited to the other voyages suggest not only standards which must be met, but also a mode of …

Orwell's Warnings : A Study Of George Orwell's Purpose In Writing, Ruth Anne Kurani Nuwayser Aug 1962

Orwell's Warnings : A Study Of George Orwell's Purpose In Writing, Ruth Anne Kurani Nuwayser

Master's Theses

Although George Orwell requested that no books be written about him, it is not difficult to glean a considerable amount of autobiographical material from his novels. His autobiographical works and several essays shed much light on his life and personality.

He was born in Motihari, Bengal, in 1903, of Scottish parents and christened Eric Blair. His father was a minor official in the Indian Civil Service and retired to England before his only son was eight years old.

At the age of eight, Orwell received a scholarship to study at a preparatory school, St. Cyprian's, on the south coast of …

Total Mobilization, William Bingham Jun 1962

Total Mobilization, William Bingham

English Language and Literature ETDs

This literary treatment develops the condition of suspended animation which reaches its completion in the Jamesian character in "The Ambassadors" who makes mock-sinister references to a 'product' which he never names. Literature with all its claptrap about the 'vital' issues of love and adventure on the battlefield and in the drawing-room--this ridiculous cud chewed over and over makes me gag. Even the current prattle about 'existence' is an evasion, perhaps the supreme evasion...

The success of an 'embattled style' lies in the poet's ability to sustain generalisation without abstracting it from living experience. A limit of individuation must be transcended …

Sir Thomas Browne In The Nineteenth And Twentieth Centuries, Richard C. Angell May 1962

Sir Thomas Browne In The Nineteenth And Twentieth Centuries, Richard C. Angell

English Language and Literature ETDs

From his own day to ours, the works of Sir Thomas Browne were never more popular than in the nineteenth century. His influence was great on the English Romantics and Victorians alike, and even more profound on the American Transcendentalists. He did not fare as well in the eighteenth century. One reason was the preoccupation of his literary executor, Bishop Tennison, who became Archbishop of Canterbury and probably had little time for literary chores; another was that some of Browne's literary remains fell into the hands of the notorious publisher Edmund Curll, who published hastily and without selection; but perhaps …

Sea And Water Imagery In Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage And Don Juan., Albert E. Scott Feb 1962

Sea And Water Imagery In Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage And Don Juan., Albert E. Scott

English Language and Literature ETDs

In reading about Lord Byron and his work, one comes to feel that more has been written about the poet than about his poetry and that the latter has served only as a sort of springboard for more studies and conjectures about the man. That is not an idle or an unfounded observation can be evidenced by the fact that no less a scholar than Jacques Barzun has commented on this point in an article of his—on Byron. Of course one is easily subverted into doing this very thing in studying Byron, for the man is a fascinating and tragic, …


The Created Conscience: A Study Of Technique And Symbol In James Joyce's A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man, Ben L. Collins Feb 1962

The Created Conscience: A Study Of Technique And Symbol In James Joyce's A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man, Ben L. Collins

English Language and Literature ETDs

Although Joyce completed A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in 1914, no full-length study of the book had yet been written after forty years. The Portrait deserves closer attention than has been given it; it demands close reading if it is to be understood in the fullest sense.

English Literary Criticism 1726-1750, S. J. Sackett Jan 1962

English Literary Criticism 1726-1750, S. J. Sackett

Fort Hays Studies Series

The author's ambition is to share English literary crticism from the second quarter of the eighteenth century. In this way not only could the criticism of the quarter-century be encompassed in one volume, but also all the most significant works could be represented at least in part. The work of textual critics are featured to serve as illustrative examples.
