Annual Report Of The University, 1978-1979, Volumes 1-4, University Of New Mexico

The national spotlight hit University of New Mexico athletics from several angles in 1978-79, but none focused as bright as the acquisition of the 1983 NCAA basketball finals. Hard work molded the dream into reality and after the NCAA committee had witnessed a persuading presentation and the flawless operation of the 1978 Far West Regional Basketball Tournament held at University Arena, they awarded the 1983 finals to Albuquerque over Seattle and Denver, both which boasted larger facilities.

Female Roles In The Fiction Of Silvina Bullrich, Erica Frouman-Smith

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

Silvina Bullrich's literary career spans over four decades and covers every genre except theatre. She is considered a national institution in Argentina where her fame rivals that of her former mentor, Jorge Luis Borges. Despite her national renown, Bullrich often has been condemned by critics who base their judgments on non-literary criteria. In the United States, recent doctoral dissertations have considered Bullrich as part of a group of either political or women writers. There are no existing studies that regard her alone and as a portrayer of women. The author's abundant production though is devoted principally to the problems of …

Chicano Literature In Spanish: Roots And Content, Erlinda Viola Gonzales-Berry

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

One of the most patently visible facets of Chicanos' efforts to assert themselves through a form of cultural nationalism has been a burgeoning corpus of creative literature which, above all, has served as a vehicle of self-knowledge. In their task of accumulating evidence for a collective self-portrait, Chicano writers have explored their past, revitalized and mythesized their cultural values, indicted Anglo culture and confronted the question of what it means to be human. In this study I have examined the works of a small group of writers whose most distinguishing and isolatable feature is their use of Spanish as a …

Representative Women In The Narrative Works Of Emilia Pardo Bazán, Jacqueline M. Guttmann

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

Emilia Pardo Bazán, a Spanish novelist of the nineteenth century, used her talents to portray women realistically. This dissertation describes her grasp of their psychology and the ways in which she discerns those differences between men and women which are sex-linked and those which are socially determined. Her novels and short stories are analyzed to define her views. The introduction sketches doña Emilia‘s own complex personality; then two antithetical currents of thought concerning women are traced through Spanish literature. The first part of this study depicts her best integrated female characters in all their variety and conveys the many differences …

Juan Goytisolo: Survival In Two Early Novels And Two Late Novels, Lois J. Shimmin Dogliani

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

This dissertation examines survival in Goytisolo's two early novels, Juegos de manos (1954) and Duelo en el Paraíso (1955), and two late novels, Señas de identidad (1966) and Reivindicación del Conde don Julián (1970). The approach views survival as the novelist's central theme and also as a signficant factor in the technique of his artistic medium. The novel's struggle for survival as a contemporary art form--through change and growth in technique--is integrated with contemporary man's fight for personal survival. While other studies have concentrated on either specific themes or technical devices, this investigation offers a coordinated perspective of both thematic …

The Problem Of Evil: The Interaction Of Philosophy And Fiction (1661-1715), Audrey Vivien Bull

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

This dissertation analyzes trends in philosophy and the novel on the question of evil during the period 1661-1715. The problem was treated on three levels: cosmic, personal and social evil. Three questions dominate: Why does evil exist? From whence does it come? How can it be alleviated or eliminated? By the study of similarities and differences between the works of a philosopher and a novel, the dissertation shows how abstract ideas were rendered into concrete situations and how serious concepts were made palatable to a wide-spread audience through the sugar-coating of fiction. Chapter I gives a broad view of philosophies …

Santob's Debate Between The Pen And The Scissors, Clark A. Colahan

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

Critics of the rabbi Santob de Carrion's Proverbios morales have often remarked on the work's frequent juxtaposition of contradictory maxims. It has been further said that reversibility of ideas characterizes both its structure and the thinking of its author. Interpretations of the literary traditions from which such structure and thought may have sprung have differed sharply. This study examines Santob's major work in Hebrew, his Debate between the Pen and the Scissors, and demonstrates the close relation that exists between the Semitic literary tradition from which it comes and the Proverbios morales.

El Dualismo Cristiano En AdáN Buenosayres, Fernando NuñEz Garcia

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

Previous studies have taken Christianity for granted in this novel. To date, however, no inquiry has attempted to analyze its Christian elements. In this thesis, we are seeking to fill this lacuna.

First, we have noted that the Christian elements are presented in opposite pairs: body-soul, finite-infinite, etc. Next, we have brought out the relationship of these pairs to Christian tradition. This has made it possible to conclude that the source of such a polarity is to be found in the Creation. What in the Divine Mind was one became manifold. Hence, a tension arose between the manifold (that which …

La Poesia De Efraín Huerta, Ricardo D. Aguilar

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

This dissertation is the first serious effort towards the evaluation of Efraín Huerta's poetry, and the defining of his place in Mexican letters. The introduction focuses on the lack of any biographical study and on the meager criticism that exists on his very important work. It proceeds to formulate a bio-bibliographical statement compiled from scattered materials in reviews and dictionaries of literature with the purpose of correcting that situation. The first chapter undertakes the structural analysis of the poet's work through the explaining of stratification in his verses, poems, and his books. Stratification is based upon the concept of simultaneity, …

Thematic Imagery In The Poetry Of AntóNio Nobre, Lana Frederica Moeller Harrigan

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

In the poetry of António Nobre, essential themes are recurrent and interwoven, and there is a great degree of constancy in the images he creates for thematic purposes. Nature as it bears thematically on his poetry is the subject of Chapter I. The poet's predilect images from nature, the moon, the sea, trees, the wind, the seasons and time of day are all discussed with relation to theme. Chapter II deals with the imagery and thematics of color. White is by far the most frequently used, comprising 43.7% of all examples of color, and is thematically significant. The imagery associated …

EspañA En La Epoca De Los Dramas De Max Aub., Alicia Germany De Alarcon

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

Max Aub, one of the three most outstanding novelists of the post Spanish Civil War, is known also as a story writer, poet, critic, and essayist. Aub is not as well known in the theater because almost all of his dramatic works were written while he was in exile. Some have been staged by groups of amateurs which have not reached the general public. Aub, German by ancestry, French by birth, Spanish by sentiments, and Mexican by recognition, has written an important group of works--in the technical as well as in the literary sense. As an author, he was compelled …

The Plays Of DamiáN Salucio Del Poyo, James J. Jewell

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

It is not uncommon for authors or other artists to attain fame in their lifetimes and then fall into oblivion with the passage of time. In Spain this is especially true of some of the playwrights of the Golden Age, for there was a great proliferation of dramatists during this period. Damián Salucio del Poyo, a Murcian playwright, is one of these forgotten figures. During his lifetime Poyo was highly praised by his contemporaries who regarded him as one of the best dramatists at the beginning of the seventeenth century; however, he was all but forgotten by the end of …

A Cross-Cultural Study Of Conformity In Americans And Chinese., Lily C. Huang

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The present investigation intended to study conformity of Chinese and Americans in several different situations through three independent experiments conducted in Taipei, Taiwan and in Albuquerque, New Mexico, based on the paradigm adapted from imitation studies. From historical and anthropological analyses of Chinese and American cultures, as ·well as from more recent experimental studies, there were reasons to expect Chinese to be more conforming and their behavior more dependent upon environmental influences. Experiment One studied the effects of a model's task specific competence and general status on adult Ss' conformity in a survey-taking field situation. The results showed that Chinese …

Pascal's Concept Of Christianity., Audrey Vivien Bull

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

This thesis explains Pascal's concept of Christian­ity, showing how it developed during the course of his life until it attained the conviction expressed in the Pensees.

It starts with the events of his life, taken from the accounts of two people related closely to him. His style is then analyzed, showing how it was influenced by the quarrel of the Jansenist and Jesuit sects to produce the polemic Lettres Provinciales and the reasons for the change of style before the Pensees. The importance of his style is stressed, because he fixed the French lan­guage and is perhaps the greatest stylist …

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

El jardín de Falerina, the producto of a joint effort by Frarncisco de Rojas Zorrilla, Antonio Coello, and Pedro Calderón de la Barca, represents a type of play that a high degree of popularity during the seventeenth century, the comedia de espectáculo y fantasia, derived, in part, from the romances of chivalry, and partly from the Italian epic poems, Orlando Furioso, by Lodovico Ariosto, and Orlando Innamorato, by Mateo Maria Boiardo.

Dated c. 1629, the comedia was privately performed on January 13, 1636 by the company of Tomás Fernández before Phillip IV and his court. There is no indication that …
