Sentimentalism In Dreiser's Heroines, Carrie And Jennie, Daryl Cumber Dance Dec 1970

Sentimentalism In Dreiser's Heroines, Carrie And Jennie, Daryl Cumber Dance

English Faculty Publications

Theodore Dreiser is usually hailed as a pioneer of American realism who freed American literature from Victorian restraints, from nineteenth century idealism and optimism, and from the ever-present moralizing of domestic sentimentalism. It is interesting to note, however, that this shockingly modern trailblazer not only stands at the dawn of a new era in literature, but also at the twilight of the old, for in Dreiser is a mixture of both the new realism and naturalism and the old sentimentalism that had dominated American literature from its inception.

Jorge Icaza Y Su CreacióN Literaria, Jorge Neptalí AlarcóN Aug 1970

Jorge Icaza Y Su CreacióN Literaria, Jorge Neptalí AlarcóN

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

Ecuador is known in the world of letters for more than one writer of continental renown, among them being José Joaquín Olmedo, Juan León Mera, Juan Montalvo, Jorge Carrera Andrade, Alfredo Pareja Diez-Canseco, and Jorge Icaza. Critics, in general, have rated the last as the greatest of the indigenist writers of Ecuador as well as one of the most outstanding novelists of the Indian theme in all of Hispanic America. Nevertheless, the literary activity of this Ecuadorian writer is not restricted exclusively to the novel as a genre, nor to the Indian as theme. Theater, short story and novel constitute …


The Supernatural In Modernist Fiction, Howard Michael Fraser May 1970

The Supernatural In Modernist Fiction, Howard Michael Fraser

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This study will examine various aspects of the supernatural as it appears in the short stories of Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera, Rubén Darío, and Leopoldo Lugones. It is believed that an appreciation of the techniques of fantastic exploration in the fiction of these writers will clarify the late nineteenth-century "crisis in beliefs" and cult of artistic spiritualism which in part characterized the Modernist aesthetic. In Chapter One appear the theoretical bases for the supernatural phenomena observed. Animism, a kind of primitive mysticism, seems to underly the Modernists’ view of the universe. Following Animism, Sympathetic Magic is examined. As any "Practice" is …

El Periodismo Paraguayo Y Su Actitud Frente A La Guerra De La Triple Alianza Y Francisco Solano LóPez., Gladis Fois Maresma

Latin American Studies ETDs

La Guerra de la Triple Alianza contra el Paraguay provocó desde sus comienzos apasionadas controversias. Hoy, no obstante el tiempo transcurrido, continúa siendo tema de interés para los estudiosos y quizás el análisis de la misma está aún lejos de_ser completamente agotado. La mayor parte de los trabajos realizados son de carácter general y con pocas excepciones todos ellos tienden a hacer resaltar ciertas facetas y sobre todo, ciertos personajes centrales con el fin de llenar un interés puramente nacional o polemico.


FonologíA Y FonéTica Segmental Del EspañOl, José Luis Freire Jan 1970

FonologíA Y FonéTica Segmental Del EspañOl, José Luis Freire

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Of primary concern in this thesis was the description of segmental sounds in Spanish. Special care was taken to maintain an inductive approach to the problem. It was felt that the adherence to this type of method would facilitate the rapid yet thorough understanding of a particular linguistic point by the student, by compelling him to formulate a generalization after studying a body of carefully selected data.
