The Joyce Menagerie : Animal Imagery In The First Three Novels, David A. Dewitt Jan 1967

The Joyce Menagerie : Animal Imagery In The First Three Novels, David A. Dewitt

Master's Theses

If James Joyce l:ad written novels with largely rural settings, like many written by Lawrence and Faulkner, it would not be particularly unusual to find many references to animals and birds. However, Joyce's novels take place in Dublin, which certainly is not the ideal habitat for large numbers of animals; and yet the number of references to animals and birds in his novels is astounding. The brief portion of Stephen Hero contains nearly fifty primary references, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man has ninety-four, and there are more than eight hundred in Ulysses. Not only is the …

A Comparison Of Two Medieval Story-Tellers : Geoffrey Chaucer And John Gower, Margaret Joan Byerly

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study is to compare the narrative and framing techniques used by Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower. These authors were selected for several reasons.

The Development Of Twentieth Century Criticisms Of The Canterbury Tales, Donald Keith Gosnell

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This paper will be limited primarily to books published on the topic under consideration. To cover all the work in periodical literature would go beyond the scope of this study. Perhaps that task can be covered by someone else.
