A Survey Of The Critical Opinion Concerning The Effect Of Edgar Allan Poe's Life Upon His Literary Work, Alice Mary Griffith Jul 1952

A Survey Of The Critical Opinion Concerning The Effect Of Edgar Allan Poe's Life Upon His Literary Work, Alice Mary Griffith

Master's Theses

In this thesis I hope to present a picture of the effect the life of Edgar Allan Poe had upon his writing. Poe was and still is a controversial figure. Many of his biographers and critics agree that the illnesses and deaths of those dearest to him and the constant pressure of outer tragic circumstances played a great part in what he put down upon paper. Others feel his drinking and dope-taking colored his outpourings. There is much emphasis placed upon his childhood days in England. Some attention is paid to his life in Richmond as a boy. There are …

An Evaluation And Interpretation Of The Principal Characters In The Novels Of W. Somerset Maugham, Leo L. Van Scoyc Jul 1950

An Evaluation And Interpretation Of The Principal Characters In The Novels Of W. Somerset Maugham, Leo L. Van Scoyc

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The purpose of this study is to appraise, or evaluate, the ability of a popular modern writer, W. Somerset Maugham., to develop fictional characters. Some critics of his novels have questioned Maugham's skill of character development, but have stated few reasons for their conclusions. When we consider that Maugham has been, and continues to be, one of the leading popular writers of our time, some conclusions regarding the development of his characters seem in order. This study of character development involves an interpretation of the beliefs and personalities of the types of people presented in his novels. This interpretation is …

A Comparison Of The Nineteenth And Twentieth Century Criticism Of Shakespeare's Heroines, Grace Mcleod Gartman Jan 1950

A Comparison Of The Nineteenth And Twentieth Century Criticism Of Shakespeare's Heroines, Grace Mcleod Gartman

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The nineteenth century critics appraised Shakespeare's heroines by standards different from those of the twentieth; consequently the two ages reached different conclusions. The purpose of this paper is to point out just what these differences are.

A paper of this scope had to be narrowed in some ways. Otherwise a formidable array of heroines would have been enumerated, but little depth of research could have been shown. In the general conclusion the result would have been the same, as I have discovered through wide reading. To limit the subject only the most famous heroines could be included. The process of …
