Expatriates Of "Good" Motherhood: Bearing Witness, Guilt, And Burdens Of Transgressive Motherhood, Kelsey Nicole Lueptow May 2016

Expatriates Of "Good" Motherhood: Bearing Witness, Guilt, And Burdens Of Transgressive Motherhood, Kelsey Nicole Lueptow

All NMU Master's Theses

To be an expatriate requires emotional stamina to withstand culture shock, loneliness, and self-doubt. To be an expatriate of “good” motherhood is no less shocking, no less lonely, and no less anxiety-inducing. This collection braids original creative pieces with critical inquiry into the roots of disorienting riptides of motherhood mythology. The creative pieces include flash nonfiction essays and poetry; the critical inquiry explores historical narratives, critical theory, feminist theory, and literary narratives. By braiding these different forms, the work aims to create a collage of cultural artifacts, whose composition can better illuminate the darkest corners of elusive motherhood mythology.


New Game+, Bobby Rich May 2016

New Game+, Bobby Rich

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This is a creative thesis composed of two components: 1) a critical introduction that contextualizes and supports the project of the second component, 2) a book manuscript of poetry. The project explores genre concerns of poetry by developing experimental prose poems that incorporate video game themes, language, and instructional writing. The project presents the interplay of the notions of control and failure to examine the borders between simulation (games) and reality (the world outside of games). The poems are constructed around the idea of designed failure, through which, the introduction argues, their status as poetry is inherently threatened, and they …


Elucubraciones Con Cicatrices Y Gritos, Exal Chong May 2016

Elucubraciones Con Cicatrices Y Gritos, Exal Chong

Theses and Dissertations

Este trabajo es una tesis de escritura creativa en poesía. A través de estos poemas, pretendo transmitir algunas experiencias durante ciertas etapas de mi vida. Mi niñez y los años que he dedicado a la docencia son los temas que tienen mayor protagonismo. Están aquí principalmente, aquellas vivencias que me han dejado cicatrices que aun puedo palpar. Son ellas el cuchillo que me ha esculpido, a fuerza de algunas lágrimas y muchas alegrías, el carácter y la fortaleza. Es la memoria que habita en mi dimensión más cercana, una voz interior que, como en sueños, no cesa en advertencias constantes, …


The Most Violent Season, Zach Manges May 2016

The Most Violent Season, Zach Manges

A Midwestern Review: A Magazine of the Arts and Issues at DePauw University

Zach Manges has made much of his time as an English Writing major at DePauw. He has worked in almost every genre - playwriting, fiction writing, and poetry - and he is currently the Editor-in-Chief of the Midwestern Review. His work is distinguished by such lines as “We say we have two seasons here: winter/ and construction, where streets get/ facelifts until they can’t stop/ smiling.” When you read Zach’s poems you can tell he’s in love with words. He has developed as a writer as a magician might. As you read Zach’s work notice his sleight of hand.


La Lluvia, Amanda Volel May 2016

La Lluvia, Amanda Volel

A Midwestern Review: A Magazine of the Arts and Issues at DePauw University

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Amanda Volel continue to develop as a poet in her senior year. In one poem she writes, “Poetry is a cathedral I find myself in.'" In one sense she worships in the cathedral of poetry, yet in. another, she tears that “cathedral” down. By the end of that poem, poetry is reduced to a “box that opens [her] chest.” Her work moves across the landscape of New York City picking up what she finds both literally and linguistically. As you read her work, allow yourself to live inside her poems, whether you’re in a …

A Marriage Sewn Together, Marie E. Curran May 2016

A Marriage Sewn Together, Marie E. Curran

All NMU Master's Theses

A Marriage Sewn Together is a creative writing thesis in three parts. Forming the thesis is a collection of very short essays, A Startling Passage, a short story, “Perigee,” and a novella, This Is Not Our Revolution. The latter pieces are fictional and take place in rural settings. All three pieces include explorations of questions concerning birth, beginnings, “original sin,” land, and the tension of balancing personal relationships with political or community ideals. The works are rooted in realism, and sometimes tend toward the lyric. As indicated in the introduction, the three works in A Marriage Sewn Together …
