Criminal Artists And Artisans In Mysteries By E.T.A. Hoffman, Dorothy Sayers, Ernesto Sábato, Patrick Süskind, And Thomas Harris, Edith Borchardt Jan 1995

Criminal Artists And Artisans In Mysteries By E.T.A. Hoffman, Dorothy Sayers, Ernesto Sábato, Patrick Süskind, And Thomas Harris, Edith Borchardt

German Publications

Much has been written on the subject of genius and neurosis, and psychobiographies of the artistic personality are numerous; however, literature on the artist as criminal is scarce. In real life, there are probably no artists who murder for their art or whose art is murder. In literature, such figures are also relatively rare. There are, however, several fictional artists with psychopathic disorders that cause them to murder. E.T.A. Hoffmann's Cardillac in Das Fraulein von Scuderi is a goldsmith in seventeenth-century Paris who kills the recipients of the jewelry he creates. Loder in "The Abominable History of the Man with …

The Literary Reputation Of Else Lasker-Schüler, Kathrin M. Bower Jan 1995

The Literary Reputation Of Else Lasker-Schüler, Kathrin M. Bower

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

Calvin Jones's book is an ambitious attempt to combine synopsis and critical analysis in a survey of over ninety years of international Else Lasker-Schüler criticism. Although Hones is careful to point out that his is a selective rather than comprehensive review, he covers a considerable amount of material over the course of six chronologically organized chapters. In his preface Jones is particularly critical of early reviewers and scholars who allowed themselves to be influenced by the poet's self-representation rather than forming their own judgments and notes the tendency in much of the criticism, both past and present, to conflate the …

The Political Reception Of Erich Maria Remarque's Im Westen Nichts Neues In The Late Weimar Republic, Richard Jay Cogburn May 1993

The Political Reception Of Erich Maria Remarque's Im Westen Nichts Neues In The Late Weimar Republic, Richard Jay Cogburn

Dissertations and Theses

The novel Im Westen Nichts Neues first appeared in Germany in January 1929 and became an overnight success. Its author, Erich Maria Remarque, was a shy, quiet man who had not anticipated such success. His novel was written to be a fictitious account of the lives of a few students-turned-soldier and their comrades in the front-line trenches of World War I. This was a unique perspective on the war. The earlier books about the war had been mostly the published, factual memoirs of former officers and as such were written from an elitist and nationalist point of view. Remarque's fictional …

The Bridging Motif In The Short Stories Of Franz Kafka, Charlene Saber Jan 1992

The Bridging Motif In The Short Stories Of Franz Kafka, Charlene Saber

Honors Theses, 1963-2015

In analyzing the short stories "Forschungen eines Hundes," "Ein Bericht fŸr eine Akademie," and "Die BrŸcke," I have found characters who function as creators of new locations -- bridging characters. These figures bridge the gap between extremes and, hence, exist in a state of "inbetweenness." Furthermore, these characters are paradigmatic of the human condition, which also seems to synthesize rebellious tendencies and desires. There appears to be two distinct extremes in Franz Kafka's short stories: the nature Pole and the intellectual pole. The bridge figures in the three stories, as well as other characters in Kafka's works, seem stretched between …


Telling Grimm Tales: Rhetoric That Molds, Comforts And Remains, Constance S. E. Cooper Jan 1992

Telling Grimm Tales: Rhetoric That Molds, Comforts And Remains, Constance S. E. Cooper

Masters Theses

An explanation of oral tradition and its portent for language clarifies the fairy tale genre. Its purpose, various cultural impacts, criticism and limitations are introduced. Ludwig and Wilhelm Grimm translated their personal interest into a form of speech that endures past cultural and linguistic barriers. The Grimms' scholastic credentials and lifework reveal the original storytellers and subjects in a historical/geographical framework. Part II isolates 68 tales of animal dialogue, discusses human-like character responses of help and harm, and submits a brief narrative criticism of the conglomerate rhetorical entity. Character insights and communication findings are resolved with Delphi compilations of 27 …

Psychology, Culture And Female Texts: Brigitte Schwaiger's Wie Kommt Das Salz Ins Meer, Julienne Eden Busic Apr 1991

Psychology, Culture And Female Texts: Brigitte Schwaiger's Wie Kommt Das Salz Ins Meer, Julienne Eden Busic

Dissertations and Theses

In recent years, there has been extensive debate in the area of literary criticism, much of it focused on real or imagined differences between male and female texts. French feminist theorists, Helene Cixous and Luce Irigaray, to name a few, argue that biological differences necessitate textual differences, while others reject this essentialist position, considering it just another means for perpetuating the notion of female inferiority. Many linguists assert that women use language differently than men, and that texts reflect these differences. But in order to analyze the origin of any textual differences, it is necessary to look beyond biology and …
