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 …

Expressions Of Nationalism In The Poetry Of The Texas Republic, Edgar Warren Smith Jr. May 1950

Expressions Of Nationalism In The Poetry Of The Texas Republic, Edgar Warren Smith Jr.

English Language and Literature ETDs

It will be the primary purpose of this thesis to prove that the thinking and writing, especially the writing of poetry, during the period of the Texas Republic express a nationalism which stems from the separate, national feeling in which Texans had after they declared their independence from Mexico. In order to carry through this research the writer intends to study the poetry for the period 1836 to 1845 in so far as it is available for the study.

The writer believes that the Republicans felt their independence, their national separateness from any other nation, their position among the nations …


The Technique Of The Novel Of Caricature, Ralph Herbert Delsell May 1950

The Technique Of The Novel Of Caricature, Ralph Herbert Delsell

English Language and Literature ETDs

The novel of a caricature is a character whose idiosyncrasies are exaggerated so that all other traits he might possess are obscured. Although caricature may appear occasionally in novels of any type, one type of novel seems to be based on considerations more relevant to the caricatures which appear in it than to any other feature of the novel. The novel of caricature is basically a realistic novel which exaggerates the single outstanding trait of each individual instead of presenting a complete analysis of all factors in any one personality. The purpose of the novel of caricature is didactic; it …

From Limbo To The World Of Light : An Examination Of The Novels Of Aldous Huxley, Walter A. Bass Apr 1950

From Limbo To The World Of Light : An Examination Of The Novels Of Aldous Huxley, Walter A. Bass

Master's Theses

The line between literature and philosophy is not sharply defined, and it is never quite certain where one leaves off end the other begins. It is possible to avoid the problem altogether, if it is a problem. The Critique of Pure Reason is convincing proof that literary considerations may be avoided entirely in philosophic writing. Poe championed the other extreme, but the isolation of literature has not often been successful, and on the whole, it is perhaps justifiable to claim that literature must be a criticism of life; that is, it must have philosophic content.

From the critical point of …


Changing Conception Of Sir Gawain In Medieval Chronicles And Romances, Clyde Kathleen Pearce Mar 1950

Changing Conception Of Sir Gawain In Medieval Chronicles And Romances, Clyde Kathleen Pearce

English Language and Literature ETDs

As the title of this thesis indicates, the Gawain Cycle is the subject I have chosen for discussion in the following pages. I feel justified in having chosen this problem, and also in the manner of presenting it, on the grounds that no detailed and integrated survey of the problem has been made.


Development Of Miltonic Criticism, Mary Ann Smith Mar 1950

Development Of Miltonic Criticism, Mary Ann Smith

Student Scholarship

The provided document traces the historical development of Miltonic criticism from the late seventeenth century through the mid-twentieth century, highlighting how shifting literary and cultural values shaped John Milton’s reputation. The text begins by contrasting the Neo-Classical and Romantic eras, noting that while classicists often struggled with Milton’s violations of their rigid rules, they still admired the sublimity of Paradise Lost. Early critics like Dryden and Marvell established the foundational appreciation for Milton’s epic style, though later figures like Samuel Johnson offered harsher critiques of his shorter works and political views. 

In the nineteenth century, the Romantic movement brought a …
