East Meets West: The Impact Of British Novelists Upon Modern Arabic Fiction, Ghada D. Alghamdi May 2013

East Meets West: The Impact Of British Novelists Upon Modern Arabic Fiction, Ghada D. Alghamdi

Student Theses and Dissertations

Although Arabic literature has a rich heritage which exerted considerable influence upon the west, after the Middle Ages Arabic writers produced little in the way of prose fiction. When the printing press was introduced in Arabic-speaking countries in the nineteenth century, all that changed profoundly. Western novels like those of Scott, Dumas, Dickens and others were first translated into Arabic and then quickly imitated by writers like Zayin and Abu-Hadid. Although such novels were popular, their literary quality was often low. All of this changed in the middle of the twentieth century when authors like Al-Sibai, Idris and especially Mahfouz …

Fetus: An Exploration Of Human Nature Through The Issue Of Abortion, Grant Collis Dinsdale May 2013

Fetus: An Exploration Of Human Nature Through The Issue Of Abortion, Grant Collis Dinsdale

Dissertations, Masters Theses, Capstones, and Culminating Projects

The issue of abortion touches deep emotions in individuals and continues to be a controversial topic in the United States. The Right to Life movement believes strongly that life begins at conception, and to abort an unborn fetus is an act of murder. The supporters of the Pro-Choice movement, however, believe that a woman has the right to choose what happens with her body, and this takes precedence over other considerations. This work of fiction uses the above controversy as its framework. The primary narrator is a fetus in utero who tells the story of how his father and mother …

Pyramid Of The Sun, James Joseph Brown May 2013

Pyramid Of The Sun, James Joseph Brown

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

Pyramid of the Sun is a novel which is experimental in structure. It weaves traditional prose with original poems based on Aztec creation myths. The narrative is not strictly linear, but approaches the plot from several angles - past, present, and future - simultaneously. It comes back to its starting point at the end, like a snake devouring its own tail. The novel takes the Aztec and Mayan belief that time is circular and never-ending and reinterprets it in a contemporary, hard-edged setting that touches down at various points across the globe, including Moscow, Seville, Seoul and Las Vegas. Pyramid …
