The Sleepy Hero: Romantic & Spiritual Sleep In The Gawain-Poet, Erin Kathleen Turner Hepner

Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects

This thesis examines two accepted styles of writing in the Middle Ages, the romance and religious genres, and what purpose they perform in the Gawain-poet’s religious poem, Patience, and his romance poem, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (SGGK). One recently popular line of research among medieval scholars is examining the way medieval authors, such as the Gawain-poet, combine elements of romance and spiritual writings. By funneling the Gawain-poet’s intermingling of the medieval romance and religious genres through the specific lens of sleep, which is represented differently in medieval romance texts than in medieval religious …

The Shadowy Other In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein: The Ego's Quest For Balance, Imene Belhassen

English Theses, Dissertations, and Student Creative Activity

This thesis examines the notion of the other in Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, in the context provided by Carl Gustav Jung's analytical theory, i.e., his notions of the collective unconscious, the archetypes, and in particular, the shadow. Some characters, such as Victor Frankenstein and the Monster, are shown to function as symbolic representations of ego and shadow. The ocean symbolizes the collective unconscious, while the ship represents the process ofindividuation leading to the emergence of the self.

The narrator is Mary Shelly herself, after sailing the dark waves ofher unconscious. The otherness represented by Victor Frankenstein's creation reveals itself as an …

Yet it is in the second world, a more metaphysical one, that we are most alive. We often gain our knowledge of this world through observing and experiencing the natural world. It is a place in which we discover …
