Cockney Dialect And Slang, Jamie Fowler
Cockney Dialect And Slang, Jamie Fowler
Honors Theses
This paper is the capstone of a personal project which I began three years ago only as a matter of personal interest. While the information the project divulges is not difficult to understand, it should be noted that the details of this subject are virtually inaccessible to Americans or any other person who is not a part of the subculture of the Cockney people. Very little substantial information has been documented on the subject of Cockney dialect and slang. Therefore, most of my knowledge was gained through research and personal interviews with key sources in the London area.
Life Without Reference To The French Revolution: A Study Of The Cultural And Intellectual Environment Reflected In Six Novels By Jane Austen, Kathy Olive
Honors Theses
Psychologists have argued for years over the effects of heredity versus the effects of the environment in the development of the individual. While both play an important role in everyone's development the artist or writer leaves behind a more visible record of these effects. Although not written from a psychologist's viewpoint, this paper will focus on the environment which helped to shape the novelist Jane Austen and the reflection of that environment which is found in her six major novels: Northanger Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion, Emma, and Mansfield Park.
