The American Dream: A Study Of The Beliefs, Possibilities, And Problems Inherent In The American Dream As Dramatized In The Lives And Writings Of Major American Authors, Robert Glen Deamer Jul 1972

The American Dream: A Study Of The Beliefs, Possibilities, And Problems Inherent In The American Dream As Dramatized In The Lives And Writings Of Major American Authors, Robert Glen Deamer

American Studies ETDs

This is an innovative, interdisciplinary dissertation devoted to achieving new perspectives on that cluster of indigenous American myths known as the American Dream. My purpose is not to analyze, or to philosophize or to pontificate about, these myths, but rather to dramatize them: to show that they are an essential part of our history and cultural heritage, as is to be seen most cogently in the lives and writings of our major authors. I have, however, at no point shirked the fact that the writing of such a study involves a moral as well as an intellectual commit­ment: in brief, …

Against The Grain: The Achievement Of John Hersey, Samuel Bruce Girgus Apr 1972

Against The Grain: The Achievement Of John Hersey, Samuel Bruce Girgus

American Studies ETDs

Since the Second World War, John Hersey has produced a sizeable body of work in both fiction and non-fiction. In 1950, a Pulitzer Prize for fiction, a phenomenally successful and significant piece of journalism and a major American novel gave him the reputation for being one of America's most promising young writers. For the past twenty years, however, his work largely has been unacclaimed and major critics have excluded him from their discussions of the contemporary novel and contemporary culture. In general, his works have not received the close critical examination they deserve. This is partly because Hersey's complex attitude …

Richard Brautigan: Youth Fishing In America, Cheryl Walker Jan 1972

Richard Brautigan: Youth Fishing In America, Cheryl Walker

Scripps Faculty Publications and Research

Richard Brautigan is an epiphenomenon in American literature. He seems to represent some sort of insubstantial alternative. While the academy of letters reads Beckett, Borges, and Nabokov, the kids read Brautigan...His appeal consists primarily in an irrepressible optimism (probably the brand of a woodsy Pacific Northwest background), a style flashing with artifice, and a total disregard for effete university culture. Mr. Brautigan is not himself the product of American higher education or of much formal training of any kind. Furthermore, his fund of simplicity and optimism is a relief for some from the profound despair of writers like Beckett. To …
