The Deseret Alphabet And Other American Spelling Reform Movements, Paula Goodfellow Jan 1980

The Deseret Alphabet And Other American Spelling Reform Movements, Paula Goodfellow

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

Everyone that uses the English language has trouble with spelling at one time of another; most people have trouble with it all the time. The may complain about the inconsistencies of English orthography (orthography is a fancy word for the art of spelling) as they reach for the dictionary, but not many people do anything about it. However, a few do try to do something. With some it may become an obsession. This paper is about the various attempts of some of these people to reform spelling.

It is traditional in papers about spelling reform to stop at this point …

Early Strains Of American Romanticism: Crevecoeur, Barlow And Odiorne, Bradley S. Hayden Jul 1979

Early Strains Of American Romanticism: Crevecoeur, Barlow And Odiorne, Bradley S. Hayden

English Language and Literature ETDs

Romanticism as a scholarly term is inherently ambiguous. Yet a study dealing with certain American cultural traits during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries cannot afford not to allude to romantic concepts. J. Hector St. John de Crevecoeur, Joel Barlow and Thomas Odiorne did not consider themselves "romantics"; the use of the term as a scholarly device is relatively recent. One can, however, perceive the germs of much of American romanticism in selected of their works.


"Fair Terms & A Villain's Mind:" Shylock In Perspective, Montreva Calhoun Apr 1979

"Fair Terms & A Villain's Mind:" Shylock In Perspective, Montreva Calhoun

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

While The Merchant of Venice has long been one of Shakespeare's most popular plays, it has also been one of the most controversial with Shylock being the hub of the conflict. Critics have long been arguing whether this great character is a tragic hero or a larger-than-life villain. Those opting for the first often believe the playwright guilty of anti-semitism, and those following the latter consider Shylock the embodiment of evil. Very few critics have viewed this character as three dimensional, possessing human dignity as well as a capacity for evil.

The first chapter reveals the many sources for both …

Over Desoto's Bones, Conger Beasley, Jr. Jan 1979

Over Desoto's Bones, Conger Beasley, Jr.

Ahsahta Press

“An adept mixture of fact, history, surrealism, and mysticism,” says Hugh Fox in his introduction to Over DeSoto’s Bones, published in 1979. The entire collection is an intelligent, ironic, and engaging look at history and its consequences in the desert west. Beasley draws together both arid landscape and cultural tradition, finding union between disparate forces on the page. “Anza Conquers the Desert” is a witty, wry seventeen-poem sequence mixing magic and history, and detailing the 1774 expedition of Captain Juan Bautista de Anza and his men traveling from San Xavier del Bac near Tucson into the Colorado desert. “Zoot …

James Baldwin, Daryl Cumber Dance Jan 1978

James Baldwin, Daryl Cumber Dance

English Faculty Publications

James Baldwin is one of America's best known and most controversial writers. If there is some figurative truth in his declarations "Nobody Knows My Name" and "No Name in the Street," on a realistic level practically everyone knows his name, from people on the street to scholars in the most prestigious universities-and they all respond to him. Those responses are as diverse and as antithetical as the respondents. Indeed, there is little unanimity in the criticism of James Baldwin: some view him as a prophet preaching love and salvation, others as a soothsayer forecasting death and destruction; some see him …
