L'Animal Dans La Poesie Du Xix Siecle, Carolyn Frances Baker

Master's Theses

Au moyen åge, Marie de France, dans ses Lais, écrit une poésie charmante, animaliere en grande partie. Dans Le Roman de Renard, il s'agit tout entier de l'animal. Avec ces deux oeuvres, la tradition animalière trouve ses débuts, et deux expressions de cette tradition s'établissent: l'une des sentiments mélancoliques, nobles, et élevés qui expriment l'âme; l'autre d'une réalité prosaïque ou populaire.

A Study Of Negro Riots In The United States 1963-1968, Leona Ann Chase

Master's Theses

The purpose of this study was to examine the civil rights phenomena in the context of the Negro riots during the years 1963-1968. The inadequacies of this study are in part due to the material upon which it is based. The reports of the state study commissions did not deal with racism adequately, or the probability of implementation of various recommendations. Consequently, this paper could not treat these topics except perfunctorily. In turn, it was difficult to assess the practicality of various proposal since the extent of these variables was unknown. The failure of thee Kerner Commission report to outline …

Moral Basis In Fielding's Irony, Roger Paulson Hailes

Master's Theses

There rarely has been publishecl a book in any language which is lighter, brighter or more "mirthfully ironic" than Tom Jones . Yet, the modern emphasis on Fielding's serious concern for moral values tends to obscure the nature of his comedy. This comedy is an agent through which he shows his reader mankind's shortcomings. Specifically through the use of all types or irony, we are made to see the ridiculous nature of many of our actions as well as the necessary methods of correction.

The intent of this paper is to study D. H. Lawrence's theme of blood-knowledge as it is found in a selection of his fictional works. The most outstanding work which concerns itself with this theme is The Plumed Serpent, a novel which centers around the re-birth of the ancient Mexican religion of Quetzalcoatl.

The Significance Of Nicholas Jenkins In Anthony Powell's A Dance To The Music Of Time, Michael George Gaspeny

Master's Theses

During a time in which scholarly examinations of novels both major and minor abound, it seems remarkable that such an intricate and ambitious series as Anthony Powell' s Dance to the Music of Time has not generated more extensive and thorough critical attention. Resulting in part from the singularity of Powell' s art, this neglect can be attributed primarily to the nature of the series itself. Thus, as Anthony Burgess has pointed out, Powell has undertaken the writing of a roman fleuve. In such a work, of course, the novels are basically uniform in style, structure, and theme, and are …

Evan Harrington : George Meredith's Use Of Comedy As A Corrective To Sentimentality, Joyce Stanley Scott

Master's Theses

Because it leads an individual to increasing loss of perspective, George Meredith considered sentimentality a real tragedy. The deluded sentimentalist convinces himself that all his efforts and attitudes bear him steadily down the road of spiritual progress, when actually he is using his ideals of society as an excuse for willful blindness, a shifting of responsibility, and self-deception. The sentimentalist's primary concern is to cushion himself against hard fact instead of training himself for encountering it, and he accomplishes this by drugging himself against the perception of truth.

Chronic Illness And The Richmond Nursing Home, Robert L. Gordon

Master's Theses

The problem of aging and chronic illness has become more acute with the 19601s and more in the public attention than ever before. Projected figures for 1970 estimate 9.1% of the population will be in the aged group. In 1965 one out of five under 17 was affected by chronic disabilities. Both the private and public sectors of the economy are involved in seeking solutions.

This thesis deals with the adm inist rative area of the public sector. The thesis attempts to state the problem, point out knowledge and recommendations in the hospital administration field and show the Richmond Nursing …

An Ultrastructural Investigation On The Origin Of Murine Langerhans Cells, Stanley Powell Tompkins

Master's Theses

The mammalian epidermis has been described as consisting of three different cell populations: keratinocytes, pigment cells, and Langerhans cells. Ultrastructural investigations of mamalian skin within the last decade have resulted in criteria whereby these cell types can be differentiated upon electron microscopic examination.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the occurrence of epidermal Langerhans cells in both neural crest-free and normal PET mouse skin, and to present evidence for a possible origin of the epidermal Langerhans cells of murine skin.

Ernest Hemingway's Impressionistic Style., Larry Cole Thompson

Master's Theses

This thesis is in one sense an attempt to explain to what extent, if any, the fluctuations in critical and popular evaluation throughout, and even after, Hemingway's lengthy career are due to his impressionistic style. The purpose and method of this thesis is therefore twofold:

1. To arrive at a workable definition of Impressionism, and, using this definition, to delineate those portions of Hemingway's work which are written in this manner.
2. To determine if Impressionism may be used as a critical gauge in assessing Hemingway's fictional works and perhaps explain the aforementioned fluctuations in his work.

Les Trois Iles De Marivaux, Suzanne Prillaman Wiltshire

Master's Theses

On appelle Pierre Carlet de Chamblain de Marivaux "peintre de l'amour naissant, "observateur nuancé du coeur humain," "délicieux poète. De telles épithètes décrivent bien cet écrivain de la premiere moitié du dix-huitième siècle, auteur d'une trentaine de pièces et de plusieurs romans, récits et essais. Les critiques signalent toujours l'ambiance délicate et raffinée--même watteauesque--de ses oeuvres: mais, peu a peu, on commence a trouver aussi un coté sérieux et humanitaire chez Marivaux qui vaut l'attention du lecteur.

Sur les trois iles de Marivaux, il nous apprend ce que c'est que d'être vraiment humain. Si l'on a besoin d'une révolution, il …
