Bleek: A Dramatic Poem, Gwendolyn Gail Nixon Oct 1993

Bleek: A Dramatic Poem, Gwendolyn Gail Nixon

English Theses & Dissertations

This poem is not about any character in particular. It is a montage of disenfranchised voices which reflect disenchantment with the status quo: a system that continues to see gang members as crazed people who are non-human, a stereotype which perpetuates gang-related killings.

Nevertheless, the poem has some of the qualities of a short story in that it has a beginning, middle, and end, as well as a central character, Bleek, who speaks for the norms of the poem. Through a series of scenes and reflections, Bleek takes us on a journey which is as demoralizing as the one that …

The Promethean, Volume 02, Number 01, Fall 1993, English Department, Concordia University-Portland

The Promethean

After just finishing this issue of The Promethean, the same nagging feeling reduces me to simple frustration: I know that there are potential witers out there who have thought about contributing but have not. It is not only that I value each piece submitted, but it is because I know that people are moved by and enjoy reading the works of others.

For instance, I'm willing to believe that Amy Westlund's "Homecoming" will stir the thoughts of those who have been lucky enough to travel and rouse a sense of curiousity in those who have not. Hidden meanings and not …

The Midwest Quarterly; Vol. 34 No. 4, D. G. Myers, Terry White, Sheldon W. Liebman, Judith Ann Spector, Mark Allister, Joy L. Davis, Kat Snider Blackbird, Midwest Quarterly Editors

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

How should literary critics accomplish their necessary judgments? Robert Penn Warren, though marginalized by some historians of literary criticism in the twentieth century, has, in D. G. MYERS's opinion, an important contribution to our understanding of the discipline. Professor of English at Texas A & M University, Myers has published articles on the history and theory of criticism in a number of journals and is completing a book on the history of creative writing in American literary education.

TERRY WHITE explores the writings of three contemporary authors on the nature of the choices humans face when confronted with evil. Assistant …


Katharine's Dream, Karen Maceira Jul 1993

Katharine's Dream, Karen Maceira

English Theses & Dissertations

Katharine's Dream is about a girl born into a family of great passion and great fear. Not all members of the family survive this devastating combination. These poems tell of who survived and how, and of who did not.

The poems are predominantly free verse lyrics which use standard diction and syntax. More often than not, they employ a short line, dense imagery and "white space," which frames the images and ideas, in the words of Mary Oliver, with the necessary "silence." Though the rhythms of some of the poems flow among smoothly, line breaks in others often suggest the …

The Promethean, Volume 01, Number 03, Spring 1993, English Department, Concordia University-Portland

The Promethean

When given a full page on which to write freely, one should should always pick up a pen and begin, and I, luckily, have been given this page. Only the reader can decide if what I have written is thoughtful and important.

This is the third issue of a journal which has yet to realize its full potential. Improvements have been made, and they will always be necessary as we strive for (near) perfection.

To realize this goal, everyone must contribute; submissions must be made (from both on and off campus); support must be offered. When this is done, the …
