Montaigne And The Coherence Of Memory, Douglas Mcfarland Jan 2000

Montaigne And The Coherence Of Memory, Douglas Mcfarland

Quidditas

Among the many classical authorities to whom Montaigne refers either through direct reference or quotation, little attention has been paid to Lucan and to his contribution to the intellectual and rhetorical strategies of the Essais. Hugo Friedrich, for instance, in his chapter on Montaigne’s intellectual inheritance from the classical world, does not even mention Lucan’s name. Although Virgil, Lucretius, Plutarch, and several others clearly have influenced both the style and content of the Essais in seemingly more direct and overt ways, Montaigne, nevertheless, turns to Lucan consistently and with regularity. The essayist directly alludes to Lucan on three occasions …


Meter Change As A Relic Of Performance In The Middle English Romance Sir Beues, Linda Marie Zaerr Jan 2000

Meter Change As A Relic Of Performance In The Middle English Romance Sir Beues, Linda Marie Zaerr

Quidditas

Despite the paucity of direct evidence of performance, some form of public representation of the Middle English popular verse romances remains a possibility, and that possibility has been reached by extrapolation from a number of directions. The convergence of evidence, though indirect, has become convincing, and a new approach strengthens that likelihood even further. In an attempt to understand if and how the romances were performed, scholars have considered internal references to performance, historical documents of performance and audience, physical evidence from the manuscripts, cognitive theory, theory of orality and “mouvance,” and evidence from textual variants.

Wei Yun Dan Fang Beifang Sebagai Tokoh Kesusasteraan Mahua Moden, Siew Hwa Choo

Student Works (2000-2009)

Modern Mahua literature refers to the literature written in Chinese by writers in Malaysia. It appeared in 1919 and since then, this literature has developed for more than eighty years. However, due to limitations of language and translation, many who do not know the Chinese language never have the opportunity to appreciate modern Mahua literature. This dissertation is an effort to investigate modern Mahua literature. It is hoped that with this research the national literature of Malaysia would be further enriched, and a new form of literature be established in the country. This study compares the novels of two modern …

Fiction, Biography, Autobiography, And Postmodern Nostalgia In (Con)Texts Of Return, Patricia D. Fox Dec 1999

Fiction, Biography, Autobiography, And Postmodern Nostalgia In (Con)Texts Of Return, Patricia D. Fox

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

Patricia D. Fox discusses in her article, "Fiction, Biography, Autobiography, and Postmodern Nostalgia in (Con)Texts of Return," the meditations, in novel and essay, of variously positioned writers and protagonists as each contemplates return to a never glimpsed or long-lost geographical and cultural center. Attempting to decipher the grounding in place and time, by heritage or tradition, Fox's analysis juxtaposes selected texts: Hungarian Rhapsodies: Essays on Ethnicity, Identity and Culture (Richard Teleky, 1997); Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa (Keith B. Richburg, 1998); Dreaming in Cuban: A Novel (Cristina García, 1992); The Hundred Secret Senses (Amy Tan, 1995); Next …

A Comparative Approach To European Folk Poetry And The Erotic Wedding Motif, Louise O. Vasvari Dec 1999

A Comparative Approach To European Folk Poetry And The Erotic Wedding Motif, Louise O. Vasvari

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

In her article, "A Comparative Approach to European Folk Poetry and the Erotic Wedding Motif," Louise O. Vasvari posits that while the corpus of folk poetry in any one area of Europe always differs from neighboring traditions, of greater interest is the existence of a large amount of related material across the continent. Nevertheless, while research in folk poetry has been rich in field collecting and cataloguing, there exists little in-depth comparative study of folk poetry. Doubtless, this is owing in part to the fact that the great majority of the texts are accessible only in the original language or …


A Comparative Analysis Of Text And Music And Gender And Audience In Duke Bluebeard's Castle, Andrea Fábry Dec 1999

A Comparative Analysis Of Text And Music And Gender And Audience In Duke Bluebeard's Castle, Andrea Fábry

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

Andrea Fábry discusses in her article, "A Comparative Analysis of Text and Music and Gender and Audience in Duke Bluebeard's Castle," the image of Bluebeard as a metaphor for gender relations. Béla Bartók's opera and its libretto represent a prime example of the metaphor that in turn can be found in a range of text types, from fairy tales through novels to films. In the article, Fábry analyzes Bartók's contribution to the metaphor, namely with his opera, Duke Bluebeard's Castle. She relates the opera to the text of the opera's libretto, written by film theoretician Béla Balázs, and places her …


Literature, "In-House" Writers, And Processes Of Success In Publishing, Frank De Glas Dec 1999

Literature, "In-House" Writers, And Processes Of Success In Publishing, Frank De Glas

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

Frank de Glas discusses in his article, "Literature, 'In-House' Writers, and Processes of Success in Publishing," the fact that too many studies of twentieth-century publishing practices concentrate on individual case studies while neglecting more general patterns and that too little use is made of theoretical concepts developed in the sociology of cultural production. He argues that one of the contributing elements in the economic and artistic success of a publishing house is the bringing together of a productive group of "in-house authors." To build up and to maintain such a group, publishers steadily launch new authors who they hope will …


Western Mediations In Reevaluating The Communist Past: A Comparative Analysis Of Gothár's Time Stands Still And Andonov's Yesterday, Roumiana Deltcheva Dec 1999

Western Mediations In Reevaluating The Communist Past: A Comparative Analysis Of Gothár's Time Stands Still And Andonov's Yesterday, Roumiana Deltcheva

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

Roumiana Deltcheva's article, "Western Mediations in Reevaluating the Communist Past: A Comparative Analysis of Gothár's Time Stands Still and Andonov's Yesterday," offers a comparative analysis of two films, Peter Gothár's Time Stands Still and Ivan Andonov's Yesterday. Both films appeared in the 1980s, in Hungary and Bulgaria, respectively, and were highly acclaimed by the critics and the audience. Both films deal with the Communist past of these two countries. In her analysis, Deltcheva's adopts the perspective of "in-between peripherality," a particular manifestation of the post-colonial paradigm in its application to East Central and Central Europe. The two films use similar …
