Abused Children In Two Faulkner Novels, Teresa Moore Dec 1981

Abused Children In Two Faulkner Novels, Teresa Moore

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

To William Faulkner, art must bolster man; it must somehow remind man of those truths toward which his race has struggled and must continue to struggle if life is to have meaning and significance. Faulkner's works meet this aim by dramatizing the conflict individuals face if they seek to wrench from life a morality that allows them placement within the larder human community.

Both The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom! require a re-examination in light of Faulkner's artistic aim. For at the center of both novels are children inescapably threatened by a corrupted moral tradition--a decayed antebellum southern …

Personality & Characterization In Cantos I-Xvii Of The Cantos Of Ezra Pound, Gary Hottinger Aug 1981

Personality & Characterization In Cantos I-Xvii Of The Cantos Of Ezra Pound, Gary Hottinger

The personalities Pound employs in The Cantos fall into three broad categories: gods (deific), legends (archetypal), and men (historical). By applying Pound's neo-Platonism to their organization, one …
