Understanding Whittier; Or, Warren In The Aftermath Of Modernism, Mark Royden Winchell Jan 2005

Understanding Whittier; Or, Warren In The Aftermath Of Modernism, Mark Royden Winchell

Robert Penn Warren Studies

Although the textbooks he edited with Cleanth Brooks virtually defined the New Criticism,Warren’s critical essays moved beyond close reading and frequently challenged the standards of high modernism when it came to assessing literary excellence. This was particularly true during the last three decades of his life, when his poetry also reflected a turn from strict modernism. His discovery ofWhittier’s poetry in the 1970s revealed new depth and unsuspected complexity in the work of that “fireside sentimentalist” and demonstrates how farWarrenwas prepared to go in fashioning a “newer” criticism.

Review Of Moving Out: A Nebraska Woman's Life, Susan Naramore Maher Jan 2004

Review Of Moving Out: A Nebraska Woman's Life, Susan Naramore Maher

English Faculty Publications

At the end of her memoir, Moving Out, Polly Spence assesses all the little ironies of her life and concludes, "[each] time everything seemed just right, each time I thought I'd found it all—the work, the love, and the ideal way to live—something brought change to me." Change is a central motif in her narrative, reflected in a title that underscores movement and mobility, not settlement. Spence's Nebraska life provides a toehold on the slippery surface of twentieth-century culture in America.


"He Hath Wrong'd Himself": Satire As The Driving Force In Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, Jennifer Reisch Jan 2004

"He Hath Wrong'd Himself": Satire As The Driving Force In Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, Jennifer Reisch

The Journal of Undergraduate Research

The words of Shakespeare's character, Jaques, reflect the power of the best and deadliest kind of satire. Robert Harris claims that this kind of satire does not seek to do harm to any individual but to the vice itself (par. 3). The best satire creates "a shock of recognition" within oneself, and as Jaques tells his audience "If it do him right,/ Then he hath wrong'd himself." This is the mode of satire found in Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin. Yet most critics do not see Uncle Tomas satiric; rather they consider it tragic, didactic, or sentimental. Indeed, Stowe's …
