"How Should One Love?": Alternative Love Plots And Their Ethical Implications In The Victorian Novel, Jennifer J. Carpentier

Dissertations

In reading Victorian fiction through an ethical lens, I am attentive to questions of what constitutes the good, loving, w ell-lived life. It is my contention that Victorian writers turned to fiction - specifically, the rapidly emerging novel form - to explore the ethical implications of being in love, and the problem s occasioned by erotic love. The writers I examine modify the basic Aristotelian search for a specification of the good life for human beings: they used novels as testing grounds for the ethical question, "How should one love?"

My study of 19th-century British fiction reveals a strain of …

The Growing Quiet On The Evening Train: Poems, Bill Bogart

Dissertations and Theses

Any abstract discussion of poetry must enlist a terminology wholly inadequate to its purpose, which is purportedly to clarify but which often serves to obfuscate or disempower the original language. The terms enlisted here for such purpose are "self" and "other." This collection of poems explores the distances and affinities between the self and others or other-ness. Exploration initiates movement. Because the self cannot arrive at the other, the poems resist finality, but seek to attain an economy of motion and direction that creates tension with a poem's necessity to come to a temporal conclusion. This gathering of momentum is …

The Narratology Of Jennifer Johnston's Novels, Robert N. Hutton

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Irish novelist Jennifer Johnston has published twelve novels to date, from The Captains and the Kings in 1972 to The Gingerbread Woman in 2000. Eileen Battersby's recent Irish Times article “Making Sense of Life” called her “the quiet woman of Irish fiction, “ referring to her understated, sophisticated writing style. All of her novels are short (Joseph Connelly and others have called them “novellas”), and she has become known for her ability to describe a complex situation in a direct, compact way.

This discussion is intended to investigate the narratology of several Johnston novels: to explore narrative voice, narrative chronology, …

Roots And Wings, Charles Eugene Hughes Jr.

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Certain experiences happen to you during your early teen years. Some of them you never think of again, others affect for the rest of your life. It’s the awkward time between childhood and adulthood, when your body and mind begin to develop into whatever it is you will become. The friends you make during these years will be your oldest and dearest. They will share both your innocence and your awakening, and you theirs. I passed through this period in the late 1960s and early 1970s, an era of remarkable social, political, and moral change. But at the time, I …
