Sherwood Anderson: An Appreciation Of His Life And Fiction, Kenneth Davenport

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

It has been only in the past four decades that Americans have awakened to the fact that they could have a literature which is not dependent on any foreign country, particularly that of England. It has been only in this period of time that an interest has been awakened in the history of American letters and the reasons for their development along their specific lines. Without attempting to assign causes, it is at once in evidence that the literature of America, with only two exceptions, to the beginnings of realism is strongly tied to the literature of Europe, particularly to …

Geneva Thorne : A Narrative Poem And A Picture Of Pioneer Life Revealing The Grave Foundations Of Culture In Kansas And The Slight Structure Built Thereupon, Olive Van Metre

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

This thesis is a narrative poem about frontier life in Kansas. This thesis is not submitted with the thought that it will add one jot to the known facts of Kansas history; but it is offered in the hope of stirring appreciation for a type of pioneer who helped to lay the corner stone of Kansas. This type has always, in the telling of old tales, been left unsung; the still and even tenor of their lives does not attract attention. Yet they were here. and the contributed the richest blood that Kansas boasts today. To the youngest generation of …

The Literature Of Spanish South America : Its Background, Development And Characteristics, Catherine E. Lewis

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The scope of this work is to be confined to those nations on the continent of South America which use as their national tongue the Spanish language. This excludes consideration of Brazil, whose language is Portuguese and which possesses a rich literature of its own. Another country is omitted, Paraguay, not from oversight, but because this inland republic is so backward in culture and development that it possesses nothing which can be dignified with the term national literature. Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela - these are the countries of Spanish America with which this discussion will …

Handbook On Teacher Reading In Junior And Senior High School, Reba Galvin Mack

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Two thousand high school students in Wisconsin were tested recently in reading; one-third of them tested as sixth grade or below in reading ability.¹ One of the most difficult problems confronting the schools of America today is "How shall we make good readers of our students?" That no educators are satisfied with the reading accomplishments in our schools is attested by the great number of articles on reading that appear in current periodicals and educational journals and by the increasing number of books on reading that are being published. So great is the flood on technical treatises on the …

An Evaluation Of The Place Occupied By The Greek Pastoral Elegy From Its Earliest Appearance To The Present, Alfred Carney

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

To the student versed in the classics the influence of Greek and Latin pastoral poetry on English Literature is well known. Starting at the time of the Italian Renaissance and encouraged by the Greek Revival several centuries later, the classical influence has permeated our literature more than any other factor. During the time of the Renaissance pastoral poetry had a place of importance equal to that of the equip and the drama. The sweet melodies of Greek rural life reechoed in the eclogues of Vergil had such a charm for later poets that they could not be resisted. Pastoral poetry …

The Development Of English Grammar From 1750 To 1929, Helen Kathryn Walsh

Bachelors’ Theses

For some time I have been interested in the subject of Grammar. A generation ago, it was considered one of the most important subjects in the elementary schools. But now, grammar is a thing one teaches only incidentally. What has brought this change? What is the situation to-day? What may we hope for in the future? These are some of the questions which need to be answered. The pendulum has indeed swung far out into empty space. It surely must return. Will we be able to stop it midway in its course?
