Criticism Of Material Success In The American Novel, Neil Bowen Porterfield Jan 1967

Criticism Of Material Success In The American Novel, Neil Bowen Porterfield

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Those authors who criticized material success as a proper or rewarding goal in life were not moving with the grain of American opinion. The novelists who did examine the goals of American life did not condemn material success immediately, but instead their thoughts grew by gradual stages. These novels are grouped into three stages for discussion in this thesis. The first group is drawn from authors who were sceptics of success. These novels, although finding areas of concern in the American goal of success and the self-made man, still held out redeeming features as generally admirable. Arthur Mervyn discovers that …

The English Second Person Pronoun: Its History And Its Significance In Shakespeare’S Richard Ii, Mary Janet De Jong Conley Jan 1967

The English Second Person Pronoun: Its History And Its Significance In Shakespeare’S Richard Ii, Mary Janet De Jong Conley

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The English language has undergone many changes since its evolution from the Teutonic dialects. It has become simplified in many ways; one area of simplification is in the second person pronoun. Originally nine different forms of the Old English pronoun of address appeared, while today only three {you, your, yours) remain. Although ambiguity can and does result from only one form in the nominative and objective case (i.e., whether you is singular or plural in reference), the English-speaking people have reduced the pronoun to the same nominative and objective form as a means of linguistic economy. The problem of ambiguity …

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 …
