Description And Meaning In Three Novels By Gustave Flaubert., Corrada Biazzo Curry Jan 1989

Description And Meaning In Three Novels By Gustave Flaubert., Corrada Biazzo Curry

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This study focuses on the problematic of description and meaning in literature, based on three master-works by Gustave Flaubert: Madame Bovary, Salammbo, and L'Education sentimentale. Description generally tends to create digressions and gratuitous accumulations that can break the narrative development. However, in the classical realist text descriptive details are to represent a global image and be available to a possible interpretive recuperation which can be mimetic and establish the basic story line, or symbolic, that is, primarily connoting the themes of the novel or the characters' feelings. Using Flaubert's works as examples, this study analyzes the constant tensions of these …


To Be West Indian: Autobiography And West Indian Literature., Margaret Kent Bass Jan 1989

To Be West Indian: Autobiography And West Indian Literature., Margaret Kent Bass

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Although some critics claim that autobiography is not a West Indian literary mode, I maintain that autobiography, of a special West Indian variety, is necessarily present, for it provides a way of defining the self and bringing the parts of the self together into a unified and coherent whole. Autobiography is the genre that oppressed and colonized populations have traditionally used to write themselves into history and to proclaim their humanity to the world. The writing of autobiography is essential to the process of decolonization, for the colonized must define themselves and recreate themselves in their own images thereby resisting …


Modernism's Illegitimate Progeny: Fictions Of Crime And The Experience Of Modernity., Jon Francis Thompson Jan 1989

Modernism's Illegitimate Progeny: Fictions Of Crime And The Experience Of Modernity., Jon Francis Thompson

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This dissertation has two main concerns. The first is to see fictions of crime--a general term which I use to signify those genres concerned with crime, including detective fiction, spy thrillers, and crime fiction proper--as attempts to mediate and contain the anxieties brought about by the experience of modernity. Modernity is theorized as having three primary moments: the nineteenth, early twentieth-century experience of imperialism; the post World War I period, the high water mark of urban capitalism; and the post World War II period, which I theorize as postmodernism. I attempt to situate crime fiction within these social contexts, and …

What Can A Lawyer Learn From Literature?, James Boyd White Jan 1989

What Can A Lawyer Learn From Literature?, James Boyd White

Reviews

Judge Posner's recent book, Law and Literature: A Misunderstood Relation, has already attracted considerable attention and it is likely to attract even more. The author is a well-known judge, famous for his work in law and economics; in this book he takes the bold step of entering a field very different from that in which he established his reputation; and the book itself both reflects a wide range of reading and contains an enormous number of bibliographical references, all in support of its claim, made in the preface, to be the "first to attempt a general survey and evaluation …

Evelyn Waugh And The Jews, David Jonathan Bittner Jan 1989

Evelyn Waugh And The Jews, David Jonathan Bittner

Electronic Theses and Dissertations 1980 - 1989

The anti-Semitism of Evelyn Waugh went beyond mere literary characterization. A study of Waugh's attitudes toward Nazism, Zionism, and World War II provides evidence that the Jewish characterizations in Waugh's work were underlined by stable and settled negative convictions regarding the Jewish people. Waugh's anti-Semitism had surprisingly little to do with Christian religious teaching but may almost entirely be attributed to upper-class British snobbism and his view that Jews were agents of capitalism, democracy, and secularism. Before the Holocaust Waugh gave his anti-Semitism free and unrestrained rein in his novels. After the Holocaust Waugh tried to blunt anti-Semitism in his …
