Analyzes elements of political philosophy as espoused in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Sees stewardship and the individual vs. the group as significant political themes, as well as distrust of democracy, technology, and potentially avaricious rulers.

The Psychology Of Power In Tolkien's The Lord Of The Rings, Orwell's 1984 And Le Guin's A Wizard Of Earthsea, Mason Harris
Mythlore: A Journal of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and Mythopoeic Literature
Argues that despite their differences, Tolkien and Orwell share a similar response to absolute power, as “parallel evolution in the imagination of two humane British fantasists with an interest in the moral implications of politics.” Sees A Wizard of Earthsea as dealing with a similar problem but in psychological terms constrained by the coming-of-age theme.

"Wretched, Bloody, And Usurping Boar"? An Evaluation Of The Historicity Of Shakespeare's Richard Iii, Kathryn Kiff
"Wretched, Bloody, And Usurping Boar"? An Evaluation Of The Historicity Of Shakespeare's Richard Iii, Kathryn Kiff
Institute for the Humanities Theses
Shakespeare's portrait of Richard III as a diabolical monster was based on the hostile accounts fashioned about him during the Tudor regime. Sir Thomas More's Richard III established the definitive image of Richard as the deformed tyrant who usurped the throne and murdered his nephews. This was the portrait that Shakespeare inherited from the sixteenth-century writers who incorporated More's account into their chronicles. This thesis examines Shakespeare's portrayal of Richard and the chronicle sources upon which he drew in order to show how Shakespeare's portrait of Richard developed. Although Richard was not the evil character presented in Shakespeare's play, it …
Irish-American Fiction And The Ethnic Identity Of Irish-Americans, Mary Carty
Irish-American Fiction And The Ethnic Identity Of Irish-Americans, Mary Carty
Honors Theses
As the largest immigrant group in the history of the United States, the Irish have had a tremendous impact on American society. Politically, the Irish flooded city government offices, eventually working up to the nation's highest office. Economically, they swelled the ranks of the labor market that was so crucial to America's growing industry. Religiously, they took over the leadership and strengthened the establishment of the Roman Catholic church in America, bringing to it their own parochial brand of Irish Catholicism. The Irish also influenced American culture with their successes in literature and the arts, and with their widespread emphasis …

A Study Of The Self In The Red And The Black And The Confessions Of Felix Krull, Confidence Man, Roberta Mowery
A Study Of The Self In The Red And The Black And The Confessions Of Felix Krull, Confidence Man, Roberta Mowery
Honors Theses
Although there are many reasons for reading and writing literature, perhaps the most compelling one is to gain knowledge of and access to the self. One of the most interesting aspects in the literary study of the self involves the individual's perception of his public and private self. This differentiation between the public an dprivate persona is developed in dept in Stendhal's The Red and the Black and Thomas Mann's The Confessions of Felix Krull, Confidence Man. The protagonists of these two works lead lives of duplicity and hypocrisy, each submerging his private personality in order to get ahead in …

The Eugene O'Neill Newsletter Vol. 12, Nos. 2, 1988, Eugene O'Neill Society
Eugene O’Neill Newsletter
The Eugene O’Neill Newsletter is the official newsletter of the Eugene O’Neill Society, an organization of scholars, theater professionals, and enthusiasts, which began meeting in 1978. This publication, created by Suffolk University Professor Fred Wilkins in 1977, started off as part newsletter and part academic journal. In 1989, the publication name was changed to the Eugene O'Neill Review to denote its focus on scholarship. In recent years, the O'Neill Society re-started publication of the newsletter. This site includes newsletter issues from 1977-1989. Newer issues are available on the Eugene O'Neill Society website: https://www.eugeneoneillsociety.org/newsletters.html
