In Fairyland Or Thereabout: The Fairies As Nationalist Symbol In Irish Literature By And After William Allingham, Cassandra M. Schell
In Fairyland Or Thereabout: The Fairies As Nationalist Symbol In Irish Literature By And After William Allingham, Cassandra M. Schell
College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations
This essay is a look at a little known Irish poet, William Allingham, who invokes the fairy as a vehicle for a political change in Ireland. It offers a close reading of a few of his poems as well as historically approaches the use of fairies in the popular culture of the nineteenth century. In Chapter I, I use an historical approach to discuss the biography of William Allingham and his place in Irish literature as a poet we have neglected. I also discuss a cultural study of the portrayal and use of the fairy in the nineteenth century. This …

Vision And Desire: Jim Morrison's Mythography Beyond The Death Of God, Ellen J. Greenham
Vision And Desire: Jim Morrison's Mythography Beyond The Death Of God, Ellen J. Greenham
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
The poetry of Jim Morrison, as opposed to his lyric verse, has been the subject of little critical examination. The aim of this paper is to open up an understanding and interpretation of a mythographic landscape developed by Morrison in his response to existence in a demythologised western culture. Through the use of the Greek myth of Oedipus in its entirety, as opposed to the two most universally known events of the adult Oedipus' life, discussion here will attempt to demonstrate that Morrison developed a cohesive, holistic vision of the human condition of existence in the world, and presented a …
Otherness And Assimilation: The Poetry Of Double-Consciousness In The Works Of Charles Simic, Marilyn Chin, And Susan Atefat-Peckham, Katherine Kidder
Otherness And Assimilation: The Poetry Of Double-Consciousness In The Works Of Charles Simic, Marilyn Chin, And Susan Atefat-Peckham, Katherine Kidder
LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
This paper examines assimilation and double-consciousness in the poetry of Charles Simic, Marilyn Chin, and Susan Atefat-Peckham. Each of these three poets writes in English in an American setting but has a different heritage. Simic is a native Yugoslavian (Serbia) who fled Europe during WWII. Chin arrived in the U.S. from Hong Kong as a child, and Atefat-Peckham is a first-generation American raised by Iranian parents. Each of these poets expresses some degree of assimilation and double-consciousness (as described by various theorists including W.E.B. Du Bois and Werner Sollors, among others) through the form and content of their poetry. This …

Light Suite, Jessica Fiorini
LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Light Suite is a collection of the work I produced during my enrollment in the University of New Orleans Low Residency M.F.A. program. The writing, format and length styles reflect my experimentation with my craft. It also provides insight as to what my "poetic voice" is. Light Suite attempts to entwine personal experience with engaged observation and occasional flights of fantasy. The following poems illustrate my attempt at diversifying personal, poetic style. There are travel, prose, and accidental meaning poems. There are poems that feature personal narrative and collaboration. All of my works do share one characteristic and that is …

"As-Yet-Still-Forgiven Past": Dylan Thomas And Nostalgia, David Bradley Bailey
"As-Yet-Still-Forgiven Past": Dylan Thomas And Nostalgia, David Bradley Bailey
College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations
Dylan Thomas exhibited a variety of nostalgic influences within his poetry. A careful study of his life will reveal a nostalgia that evolved from adolescent musings upon an ideal past, to a self-destructive urge to return to innocence through death. Thomas incorporates a variety of historical influences within this nostalgia, but his primary influence is ultimately his own tormented past. This study not only focuses on the personal nostalgia of one man, but the variety of ways nostalgia can affect people, history and society as sociological force.

Effects Of Online, Collaborative Discourse On Secondary Student Writing: A Case Study Of The History And Ecology Of An Electronic Exchange, Julie Henderson Rucker
Effects Of Online, Collaborative Discourse On Secondary Student Writing: A Case Study Of The History And Ecology Of An Electronic Exchange, Julie Henderson Rucker
College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations
Technological environments where teens spend much of their time after school are environments that educators seldom use in classroom instruction. These Web 2.0 environments are participatory, collaborative environments where teens share music, files, pictures, and ideas and are influenced by the information shared by others within their Web 2.0 environments. This study looks at a particular online environment, the Bread Loaf Teacher Network, and how secondary student writing is affected by the collaborative nature of electronic exchanges conducted on this online network. This study analyzed the history and ecology of one electronic exchange (a technological, participatory discourse community within the …
