Frida's Daughter, Myrta Vida Apr 2017

Frida's Daughter, Myrta Vida

Theses

The purpose of my creative writing is to highlight a group of U.S. citizens still woefully underrepresented in literature proper: the Latinx middle class. I’m keenly interested in exploring Puerto Rican and first- and second-generation Latinx immigrant stories. Even though some of the experiences from these groups have been elegantly visited by writers such as Giannina Braschi, Sandra Cisneros, Junot Diaz, Julia Alvarez, and others, there are nuances to the Latinx middle class experience that are yet to be uncovered. Being stuck in the cultural, linguistic, socio-economic, and political middles in a country that has recently taken a largely nationalist …

Hopeless Vacations From Nature, Raymond Lincoln Coffman Apr 2017

Hopeless Vacations From Nature, Raymond Lincoln Coffman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive

This collection of poems explores themes of dislocation and conversion, blurring distinctions between autobiographical and fictional experiences. The poems are intended to lurch forward and backward in a way that evokes a sense of chronology and memory, so that the text leaps in place or time without the narrative thread being broken or digressive. The thread’s envisioned aim is to progress and evolve from the personal or lyrical to the other-centered and back. Various landscapes, inner and geographical, play a central role in the circuitous movement and rhythm of the collection. Transformation is at the heart of each poem, and …


An Unsung Hero Of The Tanner--Jeffrey Subramanian, Kempton Cox Apr 2017

An Unsung Hero Of The Tanner--Jeffrey Subramanian, Kempton Cox

Marriott Student Review

Jeffrey Subramanian beautifies the grounds surrounding the Tanner Building, but he also writes poetry and plays the cello. The author calls Jeffrey an "unsung hero" because he is, in fact, the author's hero.


The Makings Of An Ep: From Silence To Portable Sounds, Emily Ream Apr 2017

The Makings Of An Ep: From Silence To Portable Sounds, Emily Ream

Senior Honors Theses

The creation of an EP is a process that requires skills in multiple areas. Once, creating an EP was only available to those who garnered resources and support from a record label. However, an increasing number of aspiring musicians are writing, recording, and making their music available for download or purchase without the assistance of a record label. Doing this successfully and excellently requires application of knowledge in areas such as literature, theology (for Christian artists), music theory, music technology, and marketing. This thesis will describe one process used to turn inspiration into a tangible product that one can purchase …


Religion, Science, And Truth In The Human Experience: Poetry As Living Synthesis In Walt Whitman’S Leaves Of Grass, Karen E. Luidens Apr 2017

Religion, Science, And Truth In The Human Experience: Poetry As Living Synthesis In Walt Whitman’S Leaves Of Grass, Karen E. Luidens

Masters Theses

Walt Whitman’s great masterpiece Leaves of Grass stands out in the canon of nineteenth-century American poetry for both its innovations in form and its bold ventures into controversial subjects. One such subject is the role of science as opposed to religion in shaping the modern worldview. Whitman’s poetry alternately and at times simultaneously expresses both materialistic and metaphysical cosmologies, criticizing and casting away ancient traditions as often as he calls on them for inspiration.

In this paper I explore the influence of contemporary science on Whitman’s worldview, analyze how its theories shape the cosmology presented by his poetry, and discuss …
