The Motif Of The Grotesque In The Alexandria Quartet Of Lawrence Durrell, Barbara J. Marta Aug 1966

The Motif Of The Grotesque In The Alexandria Quartet Of Lawrence Durrell, Barbara J. Marta

Graduate Student Research Papers

Lawrence Durrell has written The Alexandria Quartet in a form he considers modern and which he has labeled a "continuum." In this continuum the first three novels of the quartet occur at the same place in time and treat the same characters and incidents with the point of view and interpretation changing in each of the novels; the fourth novel then constitutes a sequel. Throughout this general framework of abstract time established by the continuum, the motif of the grotesque is woven, constantly evident, attempting to force an awareness of the sordid aspects of humanity as well as those of …

American Negro Autobiographies, George E. F. Hall

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis was to evaluate a select group of American Negro autobiographies in order to determine their quality as a literary genre. For that purpose the autobiographies from the fields of race leadership, writing, and entertainment were selected for evaluation.

In the field of race leadership the following autobiographies were analyzed: Father Henson, by Josiah Henson; The Life and Times of Frederick Douglass, by Frederick Douglass; Up From Slavery, by Booker T. Washington; and Dusk of Dawn, by W. E. B. DuBois.

In the field of writing the autobiographies analyzed were: Along This Way, by James Weldon …


The Ceremony Of Innocence., Janusz Kozikowski Jul 1966

The Ceremony Of Innocence., Janusz Kozikowski

English Language and Literature ETDs

The earliest conceptions I had of The Ceremony of Innocence were almost purely structural and centered around the desire to create a completely autonomous experience, dependent on its own specific laws, and not a derivation from, or a representation of, psychological reality. At the same time, I wanted to design a theatrical spectacle which would be as amusing and enjoyable as a puppet show. Both of these concerns led far from the usual concerns of similitude and psychological realism. I wanted to create not only an atmosphere of isolation and disassociation which would ease the audience’s usual strain for interpretation, …

The Lord Of The Rings: A Christian Refounding Of The Political Order, Donald L. Reinken Jul 1966

The Lord Of The Rings: A Christian Refounding Of The Political Order, Donald L. Reinken

Tolkien Journal

Examines the “severely classical moral doctrine” of The Lord of the Rings; discusses stewardship as “the proper subordination of Power to Care”; and approves of Tolkien’s “veiling of the Divine” by keeping overt religious references out of the work as a means of leading readers to understanding and affirmation. Reprinted from Christian Perspectives, Winter 1966.


An Evaluation Of The Autobiographical Interpretation Of Samson Agonistes, Edward P. Crockett Jul 1966

An Evaluation Of The Autobiographical Interpretation Of Samson Agonistes, Edward P. Crockett

Master's Theses

Certainly, every reader of Samson Agonistes who is at all familiar with the circumstances of Milton's life, his thought, and the history of his times has been attracted by obvious parallels between 'the poet and certain aspects or his dramatic creation, and he may understandably assume that the presentation or the sufferings of Samson constitute intentional, hidden autobiography. To assume even the obvious, however, is something too blithely done. A little research into this area of Miltoniana will reveal to him that scholarly opinion concerning Samson Agonistes and autobiography is greatly varied and that some scholars are inclined not only …
