Trans-Relational Poetics And Outsider American Modernist And Postmodernist Poetry, Anna Elena Eyre

Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)

This dissertation is concerned with how language mediates the relationship between self and other, and in particular, mythopoetic language. The political potential of myth has long been condemned, so much so that the word "myth" is now synonymous with "false." I argue that this is a result of what I term as heroic mythopoesis wherein the relationship between self and other is predicated on a violent separation that reinforces conceptions of identity. In contrast, in what I term as trans-relational mythopoesis this relationship is contingent on an embodied exposure between self and other that reciprocally translates and transforms conceptions of …

H.D. And Freedom : Realization Through Nature, Vision, And Gender Authority, Jared Young

Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)

This thesis is a study in the constructs of H.D.'s poetry, and how they work in relation to the reader. Specifically, H.D.'s concern was creating a sense of freedom for her readers as a means to representation and identity. To achieve this state of consciousness, H.D. began by exploring the sacredness within nature. In the process of articulating her idea into a more exact form she turned her focus towards gender. By removing the objective aesthetics surrounding women, H.D. developed a gender authority. Through this authority she continued her quest for freedom and, in doing so, instilled a sense of …

The Songs Of Science : Rilke, Orpheus, And The Poetic Transformation Of The Natural Scientist, Evan Michael Gromel

Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)

This thesis will attempt to illustrate a connection between both the creative and trying experiences of certain natural scientists surrounding their discoveries and Rilke's vision of poetry. It will explore the implications of Rilke's figure of Orpheus, which has been characterized in part as a symbol for art's "search in which something essential is at stake" (Blanchot 215), on the poetic potential of those whose perception is grounded in the psychology of modern scientific discovery and theory; In other words, how a scientist comes to make the turn which takes them from "the work" to "the work of art".

Revolutionary Mourning : Black Panther Women's Poetic Contribution To The Black Panther Intercommunal News Service : (And A Collection Of Orginal Poems As A Creative Response), Amanda Michelle Boyd

Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)

Named by the Black Panther Party as the Year of the Panther, 1969 was one of the organization's most tumultuous years. Working harder than ever since the Party's formation in 1966, men and women of the Party sought to demonstrate their dominance in the "sphere of revolutionary politics". With increased efforts, came an increase in opposing forces against the Party, resulting in the death, imprisonment, and exile of a number of the Party's male leaders. Under these circumstances, women began to fill positions of leadership, creating an interesting dynamic within an organization that is often defined by its idolization of …

And Still It Moves, Elizabeth Breen

Theses and Dissertations

This manuscript represents thirty-two poems written over three years. Major themes include: split selves, family, death, astronomy and fear of flying. I hope to showcase a diverse range of poetic forms while maintaining a consistent but fluid voice. The collection takes its name from unconfirmed anecdote about Galileo Galilei: when asked by the Italian Inquisition to recant his claim that the earth moved around the sun he did--and in doing so saved his own life. However, legend has it as he left he said under his breath eppur si muove or "still it moves." Regardless of what we say about …

An Apology For Confederate Poetry, Elizabeth J. Elliott '13

The Gettysburg College Journal of the Civil War Era

This paper explores the reasons why poetry written in the Confederate states during the Civil War is rarely included in the American literary canon. Historians and literary critics have dismissed Confederate poetry as nothing more than jingoistic and sentimental "trash in rhyme." Nevertheless, poems buried in the mountains of Southern literary magazines and journals from the period tell a more nuanced story. Covering a wide and fascinating range of subjects, both good and bad Confederate poems aptly reflected how the Southern popular mind reacted to and dealt with the events of the war.

Wasted Women: Modern Oppression In T.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land", James Warwood

Undergraduate Theses, Professional Papers, and Capstone Artifacts

T.S. Eliot has frequently been criticized for his misogynistic treatment of women in his poetry. Few, however, have considered the role his portrayal of women plays in supporting his poetic themes. The narrative space of “The Waste Land” is dominated primarily by women, both contemporary and mythical, who illustrate the brutal relationship between men and women. This intensely personal relationship, however, is analogous to the relationship of the individual and society; like the individual, the women must make the decision to either speak out against their oppressors or keep silent and accept their circumstances. Either option places women at risk …

Traducción, El Cuerpo Y La Sombra. Jane: A Murder De Maggie Nelson, Sylvia F. Aguilar Zéleny

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Maggie Nelson publicó Jane: A Murder en 2005 y en él se reconstruye la historia en torno a Jane Mixer. Jane fue la tercera de siete ví­ctimas de un asesino en serie a finales de los años 60. Jane, además, era tí­a materna de la autora. Este libro investiga la figura de Jane sin Jane. Maggie Nelson lo escribió preguntándose ¿puede una colección de pequeños poemas lí­ricos contar la historia de un terrible asesinato? Mi premisa es: quiero traducir esta serie de pequeños poemas lí­ricos bajo la declaración de que un caso como el de Jane Mixer continúa ocurriendo en …

Evolución Estilí­Stica De La Expresión Del Sufrimiento En La Poesí­A De Alfonsina Storni, Jesus Eduardo Morales

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

La presente investigación se propone superar dos obstáculos que afectan la crí­tica literaria sobre Alfonsina Storni: el estigma de su poesí­a como "escritura de (y para) mujeres" y la interpretación de su obra desde su mitificada biografí­a.

¿Cómo abordar la obra de Storni con una metodologí­a que la revalorice, cuando la perspectiva de género y la exactitud biográfica han agotado ya sus posibilidades? La respuesta se halla en un abordaje de tipo estilí­stico que dé luz sobre el proceso evolutivo por el cual pasa la elaboración lí­rica. Sin embargo para la puesta en práctica de tal método, es obligado encontrar …
