The Role Of Women In Four Faulkner Novels, Betty W. Gray Jan 1966

The Role Of Women In Four Faulkner Novels, Betty W. Gray

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The women in the writings of William Faulkner have not captured the attention of readers or critics in the way that the male characters have. A close examination of the criticism of Faulkner' s writings reveals that little special attention has been paid to the literary treatment of the women per se. The women have usually been treated in connection with other themes.


The Shift In Focus From The Group To The Individual In The Later Novels Of John Steinbeck, Sandra Lee Gabel Jan 1966

The Shift In Focus From The Group To The Individual In The Later Novels Of John Steinbeck, Sandra Lee Gabel

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

John Steinbeck demonstrates a shift from the group hero, in some of his earlier novels, to the individual hero in his later novels. It is evident that in East of Eden and The Winter of Our Discontent Steinbeck is more concerned with the individual human being than he was in such earlier novels as Of Mice and Men and The Grapes of Wrath. A contrast with two novels which fall in an earlier period, 1940 and before, will clarify the development of the individual man as hero in Steinbeck's later novels. Steinbeck changes his emphasis from the group, in Of …

Washington Irving: Artist Of The Picturesque, Dana Dewey Woody Aug 1965

Washington Irving: Artist Of The Picturesque, Dana Dewey Woody

Master's Theses

Living in the period of romanticism in art and literature, Irving reflects the spirit and taste of the times. His choice of subject matter and his attitude toward it were romantic. He wrote about things that were old, unusual and strange-Spanish castles, English churches and manor houses, Hudson River area legends and traditions. He found nature delightful and was sympathetic toward humble creatures, such as the noble savage and animals.

Art of the romantic period pleased without disturbing and pictured common human situations, painted sentimentally and with a touch of humor. The beauty of primeval nature was painted with tenderness …

The Poetry Of Matthew Arnold: A Study In Versification, Douglas A. Mathewson Jul 1965

The Poetry Of Matthew Arnold: A Study In Versification, Douglas A. Mathewson

Theses and Dissertations

Despite the great number of published works that deal with English prosody or the more restricted subject of versification, there is a noticeable scarcity of studies that describe the practices of individual poets. One of the more apparent reasons for the meager number of versification studies is the instability of the basic criteria by which a poem is examined. Prosodists quite simply find it difficult to establish concrete principles of scansion that are acceptable to all other prosodists. Without going into discussion of the various schools of thought on metrical structure, suffice it to say that there are conflicting opinions …
