Myth And Reality In Hijo De Hombre, A Novel By Augusto Roa Bastos, David R. Gifford

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

The essence of Paraguayan reality, cloaked in myths since the days of the Conquest, is an enigma which, for the most part, has been elusive to the writer's pen. There is, however, one man, Augusto Roa Bastos, who has succeeded masterfully in capturing that essence and who has done so precisely through the revelation of both Paraguay's myths and her reality. His work is the highly complex narrative Hijo de hombre, winner in 1959 of the esteemed Losada prize in Buenos Aires.

The success of Roa's novel stems from a deeply felt commit­ment to his fellow Paraguayans against man's …

El Tema De La Muerte En Al Novela "La Muerte De Artemio Cruz" De Carlos Fuentes, Felina Noris Roine

Master's Theses

Uno de los elementos de mas importancia en el desarrollo de la humanidad en los ultimos dos siglos lo constituye el progreso de la ciencia y sus consecuencias tecnicas, que establacen el analisis como base de las cosas, propiciando asi una falta de fe, de creencia, que trae consigo la decadencia de la religion. Al dejar de ser la religion el centro de la vida del hombre, este ha perdido su relacion con el reino transcendental del ser quedando solo en un mundo que no provee respuestas a sus necesidades espirituales. Al hombre cambiar de una fe en el orden …

The Portuguese Complimentary Infinitive After Nouns And Adjectives, Peter J. Lunardini

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

The Portuguese usage of the preposition following verbs has been thoroughly studied by Francisco Fernandes in his Dictionàrio de verbos e regimes. However, the preposition required to supplement a noun or an adjective before a complementary infinitive has been virtually excluded from Portuguese dictionaries. It is the purpose of this thesis to present a study, together with examples, of this important phase of Portuguese syntax.

To obtain this information, thirty-one works of nineteen modern Portuguese and Brazilian authors were carefully examined, and the prepositional usage was recorded. The following general conclusions are based upon approximately 4,000 examples collected.

Folklore In The Contemporary Spanish American Novel, Anita M. Noble

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

The novel of Spanish America is especially rich in all types of folklore. This is particularly due to the fusion of the Spanish and the Indian peoples in a common life with different cultural heritages.

"Sometimes one type of folklore, sometimes another, finds great favor among a certain folk." Thus we will notice that witchcraft as a religious rite predominates in the people of Indian culture. Magic and the supernatural stand out in all the classifications of the folklore of this race and is therefore evident in the Latin American novel dealing with the Indian people, or people from a …
