The Character Of Robinson Jeffers: A Study In “Inhumanism”, Betty Jean Evans Jan 1953

The Character Of Robinson Jeffers: A Study In “Inhumanism”, Betty Jean Evans

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

When one reads many of the long narrative poems of Robinson Jeffers, one wonders at the characters who act out their lives against a backdrop of the contemporary California coastal region. The characters live isolated lives as ranchers, farmers, and farm women; they go about the business of eking out an existence, of cultivating their land, of caring for their livestock. Often, they commit horrible, unnatural acts and always, they or their families are involved in episodes which result in death or injury. Although these characters do not have the stature of an Oedipus or a Medea, their lives and …

The Dualism Of Shelley's Adonais, Lucille C. Kaul Aug 1952

The Dualism Of Shelley's Adonais, Lucille C. Kaul

English Language and Literature ETDs

Adonais, the elegy on Keats, is regarded by common consent as one of Shelley's two or three greatest poems and one of the greatest elegies in the English language. This current estimate approximates, if it does not confirm, the self judgement of a writer who by 1840 'had been clearly recognized as one of England's half-dozen greatest poets.'

A Comparison Of The Uses Of Astrology In The Works Of John Gower And Geoffrey Chaucer, George Rufus Wyatt Jr. Aug 1952

A Comparison Of The Uses Of Astrology In The Works Of John Gower And Geoffrey Chaucer, George Rufus Wyatt Jr.

Master's Theses

The literary interest in astrology which had been gradually increasing during the fourteenth century in England, culminated in the works of Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower. It is not surprising that these two poets have used astrology very extensively in writing stories for their medieval audiences since the average man in the Middles Ages believed that life depended upon the influences of the seven planets in their positions in the zodiac. It is the purpose of this thesis to present a comparison of the uses of the astrological material in the works of Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower. In this …


Henry James' View Of Evil In His Writings From 1888-1899, Adrienne R. Wilda Jul 1952

Henry James' View Of Evil In His Writings From 1888-1899, Adrienne R. Wilda

English Language and Literature ETDs

This thesis springs from an interest in Henry James' exploration of the situations which face his characters and of the responses which his characters make to those situations. Viewing the situations, one sees that in general two possibilities may result: The character concerned may go on to a fuller development of his spiritual qualities, or he may become keyed to a value much lower than his spiritual capacity. In either case the ultimate responsibility for the individual's action or attitude rests with himself.

A Survey Of The Critical Opinion Concerning The Effect Of Edgar Allan Poe's Life Upon His Literary Work, Alice Mary Griffith Jul 1952

A Survey Of The Critical Opinion Concerning The Effect Of Edgar Allan Poe's Life Upon His Literary Work, Alice Mary Griffith

Master's Theses

In this thesis I hope to present a picture of the effect the life of Edgar Allan Poe had upon his writing. Poe was and still is a controversial figure. Many of his biographers and critics agree that the illnesses and deaths of those dearest to him and the constant pressure of outer tragic circumstances played a great part in what he put down upon paper. Others feel his drinking and dope-taking colored his outpourings. There is much emphasis placed upon his childhood days in England. Some attention is paid to his life in Richmond as a boy. There are …


Art And Religion In Milton's Critical Theory, Otto Leonhart Brenner Jul 1952

Art And Religion In Milton's Critical Theory, Otto Leonhart Brenner

Master's Theses

Unquestionably, behind Milton's writings stands his critical theory. Without it he could never have been great. His ability to select what was basic in the production of art was a prime factor in giving him the remarkable proficiency and power he displays in handling poetic forms in such a way that they ideally represent the thought and emotions experienced in nature.
