Xx. The Term "Communal", Louise Pound Jun 1924

Xx. The Term "Communal", Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

I. The Doctrine of Communal Origins

The period following the French Revolution was deeply interested in "the people" as a mass conception, in all that belonged to them and all that they created. It was in this period that theorists on the origin of law, customs, religion, language, literature--particularly the folk-song and the folk-tale--liked to advocate the doctrine of spontaneous, unconscious growth "from the heart of the people," as the phrase went. Such conceptions of origin had their critics from the first; but they remained more or less orthodox throughout the nineteenth century, and they still have foothold in both …


The Neo-Stoicism Of Seneca, Emily E. Ruetz Jun 1924

The Neo-Stoicism Of Seneca, Emily E. Ruetz

Bachelors’ Theses

Before endeavoring to formulate certain decisions of the Neo-Stoicism of Seneca it will be most advantageous to discuss fundamental Stoicism. Stoicism was that system of philosophy which gripped the worlds of Greece and Rome for a number of centuries and claimed many eminent men among its followers. The doctrine set forth by the Stoics was essentially a practical one since it laid most stress on a proper mode of life.


The Influence Of Virgil's "Aeneid" On Subsequent Literature, Mary Gertrude Quirk Jun 1924

The Influence Of Virgil's "Aeneid" On Subsequent Literature, Mary Gertrude Quirk

Bachelors’ Theses

In a study of the lives of great men it is interesting to trace the circumstances that have affected them most deeply. And we generally find that the most powerful influences in moulding their characters were the friends that they had made. This flows from the very nature of friendship, which entails a mutual sharing of another's thoughts and feelings, interests and aspirations. Moreover, when men are united in any undertaking, howsoever insignificant, a bond of sympathy is established among them. Common ends and common purposes create a feeling of comradeship, an esprit de corps that lends grace to the …


Brook Farm And Margaret Fuller, Genevieve Teske Apr 1924

Brook Farm And Margaret Fuller, Genevieve Teske

Bachelors’ Theses

Communism as an ideal for human society is a dream that many a philosopher has cherished and striven for. Some there were who theorized upon it, who sought to circumvent and direct the passions and activities of human nature by artificial barriers towards what was better and truer, though themselves holding aloof and leaving it to others to conduct the experiment; and some there were, who boldly led the way in person, setting an example to the followers they had gained; some again there were, who held the neutral role of spectators at a drama, observing the experiments made, observing …


The Limitations Of Impressionism In Literature, Thomas J. Campbell Apr 1924

The Limitations Of Impressionism In Literature, Thomas J. Campbell

Bachelors’ Theses

The farmer on plowing a field for the first time, almost invariably, marks out the course of the first furrow with stakes. That is, he must plant at least three stakes by which he may strike out straightly the first furrow upon which the condition of all the following furrows depend. Now we are not going to plow a new tract of land, because literary criticism has been hashed over again and again, but we do need a little of the farmer's prevision and precaution in entering such a large and diverse field as literary criticism embraces. We too, must …

The English Inn In English Literature, Eugene E. Ball Jan 1924

The English Inn In English Literature, Eugene E. Ball

Bachelors’ Theses

Perhaps no institution holds higher rank in, or has had more influence on English literature than the English Inn. Famed alike in song and story, it has come down to us through the centuries as a sacred sanctuary of thought and culture, where the creators of the sagas of our native tongue sought congenial companionship, where the sharp flash of wit, and the quick thrust of repartee kindled inspiration into flame.


The Necessary Relation Of Morality To Literature And Its Apparent Neglect In Our Modern Works, Muriel Bruett Jan 1924

The Necessary Relation Of Morality To Literature And Its Apparent Neglect In Our Modern Works, Muriel Bruett

Bachelors’ Theses

Literature has a purpose beyond itself, the expression of truth, the transmission of knowledge from generat1on to generation, and the elevation and strengthening of the man. It is clear that the purpose of reading is to put ourselves into communication with the best minds of the race. Unless we read a man for all there is in him, we gain little but a disorganized group of pages. Books should be real things. For if we admit that there is an intrinsic value in anything, we must admit the objective value of literature, that there is something which stamps a book …

The Importance Of Truth: Nonfictive Bases For The Novels And Short Stories Of Robert Mcalmon, Edward N. S. Lorusso Jun 1922

The Importance Of Truth: Nonfictive Bases For The Novels And Short Stories Of Robert Mcalmon, Edward N. S. Lorusso

English Language and Literature ETDs

Robert McAlmon's fiction was never published in the United States during his lifetime. Not until the 1960s, a decade after his death, did American versions of Being Geniuses Together and Distinguished Air appear. Most recently, the University of New Mexico Press has published three McAlmon books: Village, Post-Adolescence, and Miss Knight and Others. This new accessibility will allow a reevaluation of his work.

McAlmon most often wrote about his own life and the lives of those around him. While contemporaries dismissed him as a mere reporter, McAlmon can now be seen as writing nonfiction novels and short stories, decades before …
