Achieving Relationships, Frederick C. Melancon Dec 2015

Achieving Relationships, Frederick C. Melancon

Master's Theses

These stories attempt to follow John Gardner’s instruction to create a dream that will engage the reader. Mirroring the goal that an author has to create a relationship with his audience, each story in turn focuses on emotional details that convey the characters’ feelings of isolation or, alternatively, inclusion in their communities. In the first story, a young man tries to recreate his father’s king cake. In the next, a middle school girl fixates on her relationship with her sister. Trying to recapture the memory of a lost daughter, a man searches for the perfect nectar snowball. A mom, then, …

Experiments With Pam And Lisa—A Blogging Exploration Of Mind, Body, And Soul, Lisa Marie Anderson

Theses and Dissertations

The aim of this thesis is to explore expressivist theory of writing. In the 21st century, rhetoricians and writers have taken different stances on the writing process and the pros and cons of free writing, journal writing, and blogging. With these looming theory wars, the author of this thesis wanted to show that there is a benefit to expressivist theory as part of the writing process. This thesis first examines where the author began a personal transformation and over the course of 8 months, she uses the internet to blog about spirituality, gratitude, and enlightenment. The benefit of the World …

Home And Away: Imagining Ireland Imagining America (2013), Shaun O’Connell Nov 2015

Home And Away: Imagining Ireland Imagining America (2013), Shaun O’Connell

New England Journal of Public Policy

From the 2013 Editor's Note by Padraig O'Malley: Shaun O’Connell has lost none of his touch. In “Home and Away: Imagining Ireland Imagining America,” O’Connell juxtaposes two novels: Alice McDermott’s Charming Billy (1998) and Colm Toibin’s Brooklyn (2009) and reveals the parallels and contrasts that enrich the discussion of Irish and Irish American identities. Toibin, an Irish writer, would have us see an America, land of the free, as an open, inviting place but exacting in redeeming promises made; McDermott, an American writer, portrays an Ireland that is magical, a little bit of heaven, but finally a closed and bitter …
