Speech Characteristics Of The Rio Grande Valley, New Mexico, Donald I. Dickinson May 1952

Speech Characteristics Of The Rio Grande Valley, New Mexico, Donald I. Dickinson

English Language and Literature ETDs

The purpose of this study is to show characteristics of the speech of the Rio Grande Valley in New Mexico. It is hoped that the material will be suitable for inclusion in a future Linguistic Atlas of the U.S. and Canada. Because it was done with this as its goal, the Atlas principles have been followed in the use of preliminary check-lists for plotting key communities, the Atlas worksheets for discovering lexical and phonological variations and the Atlas fine phonetic symbols with which these variations were recorded.


The Novels Of James T. Farrell; A Study In Social Forces And The Individual, Maurice M. Rosenthal May 1952

The Novels Of James T. Farrell; A Study In Social Forces And The Individual, Maurice M. Rosenthal

English Language and Literature ETDs

In any study of the works of James T. Farrell one is impressed by the author's relentless attack on man's traditional institutions and his furious loathing of the barren waste of life that characterizes certain strata of society. In a very real sense Mr. Farrell is exorcising the evil spirits of his blighted youth in southside Chicago, but in a more significant respect he is doing penance for us all. "Here," he seems to say to society, "is your bastard spawn. What will you do with it?"

Mr. Farrell, however, is no crusader. He considers his mission only that of …


The Novels Of Harold Frederic, George A. Small May 1952

The Novels Of Harold Frederic, George A. Small

English Language and Literature ETDs

I do not intend to defend the obviously untenable thesis that Frederic was a great writer and is not appreciated because of the nature of his subject matter. The author of The Damnation of Theron Ware seldom shows any sign of genius. What Frederic does, and often in a rather workmanlike manner, is tell a story of small-town and country people in upper New York state. In his early works, Seth's Brother's Wife and The Lawton Girl, the author writes about things he knows and has done. The works written about the same time as the two mentioned have …

A Treatment Of Plant Life In Eighteenth-Century Poetry, William Melvin Maxey Apr 1952

A Treatment Of Plant Life In Eighteenth-Century Poetry, William Melvin Maxey

Master's Theses

A critic of English literature, writing about nature in poetry, has said that the subject-matter ot poetry may be divided into three main groups: man, God, and nature. This paper is primarily concerned with the last division, and more especially with a treatment of plant life in eighteenth-century poetry. Such a treatment must of necessity require wide reading and careful selection of the material to be covered, since the chief aim of the writer is to present the subject in such a manner that it is representative of the whole period of English poetry from 1700 to 1800.


Ernest Hemingway, A Writer Of Episodes, Robert Alexander Chermside Jr. Apr 1952

Ernest Hemingway, A Writer Of Episodes, Robert Alexander Chermside Jr.

Master's Theses

In this thesis my purpose is to analyze and review some of Hemingway's episodes and short scenes, which I believe to be his most valuable work, in order that their value may become evident. I then intend to show that the author's novels are in most cases dependent on these episodes for their literary success. In accomplishing this, it would be useless to consider everything Hemingway has written. I shall deal only with his fiction and shall confine myself to selections which most amply illustrate my point.
