Student Perceptions Of Native And Non-Native Speaker Language Instructors: A Comparison Of Esl And Spanish, Laura Callahan
Student Perceptions Of Native And Non-Native Speaker Language Instructors: A Comparison Of Esl And Spanish, Laura Callahan
Modern Languages & Literature
The question of the native vs. non-native speaker status of second and foreign language instructors has been investigated chiefly from the perspective of the teacher. Anecdotal evidence suggests that students have strong opinions on the relative qualities of instruction by native and non-native speakers. Most research focuses on students of English as a foreign or second language. This paper reports on data gathered through a questionnaire administered to 55 university students: 31 students of Spanish as FL and 24 students of English as SL. Qualitative results show what strengths students believe each type of instructor has, and quantitative results confirm …
Rulfo En Donoso: Comala Y El Olivo Como Espacios Infernales, Iker González-Allende
Rulfo En Donoso: Comala Y El Olivo Como Espacios Infernales, Iker González-Allende
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
En 1965 José Donoso viaja a México para un simposio, a instancias de su amigo Carlos Fuentes. El salir de su país, Chile, y encontrarse con un nuevo espacio y con una gran diversidad de escritores supuso un cambio importante en su quehacer como narrador. Llevaba un tiempo obsesionado con lo que después sería su novela El obsceno pájaro de la noche, pero por entonces no era capaz de plasmar en papel las ideas que flotaban en su mente. Además, se sentía atrapado en Chile, donde no disponía de muchos momentos para dedicarse a su obra, ya que era …

El Mar Y La Pared: El Exilio Histórico Frente Al Exilio Existencial En La Poesía Final De Ernestina De Champourcin, Iker González-Allende
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
La guerra civil española (1936-1939) tuvo como consecuencia en el ámbito cultural vasco el exilio de muchos intelectuales, tanto de ideología nacionalista como republicana. Sin embargo, ésta no era la primera vez en la que el pueblo vasco se veía obligado al alejamiento de su tierra, ni tampoco la última, aunque fue la ocasión en que más personalidades de la esfera de la cultura partieron hacia otras latitudes. San Miguel y Ascunce diferencian dos momentos migratorios vascos en torno a la guerra: uno anterior a 1936, debido a razones laborales, y otro posterior a 1939, causado por la situación política. …
The Closest Reading: Creating Annotated Editions, Matthew D. Stroud
The Closest Reading: Creating Annotated Editions, Matthew D. Stroud
Modern Languages and Literatures Faculty Research
Teaching old literature of any kind to undergraduates is a challenge. The language is difficult, the themes often lack resonance for today's students, and the cultural references are abstruse. When one adds to the mix that the works are in an archaic version of Spanish, not the native language of most students in the United States, and that the plays are written in florid, baroque poetry, the task of helping students to appreciate the Spanish comedia for its literary value is made considerably more demanding. A great many students simply do not understand what is going on with the plots …
Filling The Silence --An Iserian Reading Of Ilse Aichinger's Work, Julia Sonja Brassat
Filling The Silence --An Iserian Reading Of Ilse Aichinger's Work, Julia Sonja Brassat
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
The works of the Austrian writer Ilse Aichinger are often considered impenetrable and incomprehensible. Aichinger’s doubt about conventional language serves as the basis for her use of highly pictorial and complex linguistic constructions. Although many literary scholars have alluded to the impenetrability of Aichinger’s works, few attempts have been made to investigate the meaning of her texts. In his theory of aesthetic response, Wolfgang Iser explains that literary works contain vacancies in the system of the text that need to be filled by the reader’s imagination. They serve as an impetus for the reader, during the process of reading, to …

Writing and Language Studies Faculty Publications
Salvo que la ensefianza de lenguas extranjeras en el sistema escolar estadounidense cambie de forma radical ( cosa que no parece previsible en los pr6ximos afios ), es razonable pensar que el estudiante prototipico de traducci6n entre las lenguas inglesa y espafiola en este pais sea, por abrumadora superioridad estadistica, el denominado heritage student. Nos referimos con esto a las segundas generaciones de inmigrantes hispanohablantes que, segun adquieren acceso a la educaci6n universitaria, proporcionan una de las pocas oportunidades para que la ensefianza de la traducci6n tenga lugar en un estadio anterior al ciclo de postgrado ( que es donde …

«L’Arbre» De Gabrielle Roy: Une Hirondelle D’Hiver Dans Un Chêne Vert De Floride, Thomas M. Carr Jr.
«L’Arbre» De Gabrielle Roy: Une Hirondelle D’Hiver Dans Un Chêne Vert De Floride, Thomas M. Carr Jr.
French Language and Literature Papers
On connaît bien les voyages de Gabrielle Roy au Manitoba pour rendre visite à sa famille et ses séjours à Petite-Rivière-Saint-François dans Charlevoix. C’est seulement depuis la publication de ses lettres à son mari qu’on commence à mieux apprécier ses séjours en Floride dans les années cinquante et soixante. Au moins une nouvelle, écrite semble-t-il en Floride en 1967-1968, s’inspire de ces voyages, mais puisqu’elle n’a été reprise dans aucun recueil, elle reste mal connue. Elle n’a généralement été étudiée que dans le cadre du symbolisme du monde naturel chez Roy (Gagné, 1973; Harvey, 1993). Pourtant, François Ricard a attribué …

Review Of Jean-Nicolas Illouz, Le Symbolisme, Marshall C. Olds
Review Of Jean-Nicolas Illouz, Le Symbolisme, Marshall C. Olds
French Language and Literature Papers
As emphases in literary studies have shifted away from structuralist, semiotic, and other modes of reading informed by theory toward historically-oriented esthetic and cultural analysis, we have needed a new examination of Symbolism that would account for its complexities both as a literary and artistic movement and as a “compound moment” in literary and cultural history. Jean-Nicolas Illouz has provided the foundation for such a reexamination. His study is, to my knowledge, the most complete and nuanced overview of the movement that we have, bringing together in a historically informed and carefully researched reading of Symbolism as both the point …
The Odd Man Out: The Kings In Corneille's Machine Plays, Nina Ekstein
The Odd Man Out: The Kings In Corneille's Machine Plays, Nina Ekstein
Modern Languages and Literatures Faculty Research
Andromède and La Conquête de la Toison d’or have a largely unenviable status in Corneille’s oeuvre. They are often either dismissed or marginalized, and almost inevitably read as different from, and therefore inferior to, the more canonical Cornelian works. In fact, both plays are richer and more interesting than commonly thought, as I hope to suggest by an examination of the curious and curiously similar role of the king.

This article presents a profile of German-speaking novelist and poet Helga Novak. Novak's poems are often written in the form of ballads which include themes of violence against those who have found themselves on the margins of society. Besides her native Germany, Helga Novak has lived in Iceland and Poland and has won numerous literary awards.

Beauty In Bastardy? Breytenbach On Afrikaans And The Afrikaners, Brian G. Kennelly
Beauty In Bastardy? Breytenbach On Afrikaans And The Afrikaners, Brian G. Kennelly
World Languages and Cultures
Throughout the twentieth century activists in South Africa for the Afrikaans language struggled with, yet never resolved, the language/people, Afrikaans/Afrikaner issue, as Hermann Giliomee points out in his recent ‘biography’ of the Afrikaners (2003, 389). Was the Afrikaner community a racial or linguistic one? Was the push to promote Afrikaans subordinate to the entrenchment of a white supremacist government and ruling party? Was there a hegemonic or counter-hegemonic relationship between language and ethnicity? If the social identity of the Afrikaner was to be shaped by the acceptance of Afrikaans as a public language on equal footing with English, the creed …
Going Through The Trash: Meaning In The Cabaret And Cabinet Baroque Lyric, Russell J. Ganim
Going Through The Trash: Meaning In The Cabaret And Cabinet Baroque Lyric, Russell J. Ganim
Department of Modern Languages and Literatures: Faculty Publications
Joan DeJean's recent book, The Reinvention of Obscenity, brings front and center issues of filth and impiety as they relate to cultural norms. DeJean's assertion that "Paris was the center for the production of dirty books and dirty pictures” in the Early Modern period underscores the extent to which obscene literature becomes a cultural referent, either open or clandestine. While her focus is on obscenity as it relates to the neo- Classical era, DeJean emphasizes that the Baroque period also contributed to the "reinvention" of smut that characterized a distinct element of literary and artistic production during the seventeenth …

Neither Grobalized Nor Glocalized: Fuguet’S Or Lemebel’S Metropolis?, J. Agustín Pastén B.
Spanish Language and Literature Papers
I am interested in examining how globalization is having an impact in narrative representation and especially in verifying whether writers embrace or reject global forces and how they do so. Specifically, this article examines both the dilution and the rescuing of "the own" within the parameters of the contemporary Latin America capital city by focusing its attention on very recent literary and theoretical discourses produced in the continent. The incessant influx of novels, short-stories, urban chronicles and other texts into the market occasioned by multinational publishing houses makes it impossible to provide a comprehensive view of literary representation of the …

Infallible Texts And Righteous Interpretations: Don Quijote And Religious Fundamentalism, Matthew D. Stroud
Modern Languages and Literatures Faculty Research
Religion in Don Quijote has been a frequent subject of inquiry over the past century. As a "vehicle for religious expression," to use Ziolkowski's terminology (1), Cervantes's masterpiece has been studied as an analogy of the relationship between religious faith and the world around it (Ziolkowski 8), as a manifestation of the historic clash between the secularization of the modern era and the waning medieval domination by "religious institutions and symbols" (Ziolkowski 9, citing Berger 107), as a vessel of both the spirit and the letter of selected pronouncements of the Council of Trent (Descouzis 479), as a text that …

Cuban American Literature, Isabel Alvarez-Borland
Cuban American Literature, Isabel Alvarez-Borland
Spanish Department Faculty Scholarship
This essay's approach to the diverse corpus that constitutes contemporary Cuban American prose and poetry is not strictly based on the traditional concept of generation nor does it base its conclusions on the dates the writers arrived from Cuba. Instead, the linking factor is the presence of a shared perspective toward the idea of exile and displacement. From this analysis, three distinct sensibilities emerge that can be grouped under the categories of exile, hybrid and ethnic.

Over The Top: From The Tragic To The Comic In Corneille, Nina Ekstein
Modern Languages and Literatures Faculty Research
The notions of tragedy and comedy that one can intuit from the theater of Corneille are markedly different from those found in other authors of the period. This is but one aspect of a larger issue concerning Corneille's placement in the hallowed pantheon of literary history. He is one of the major canonical authors and yet he often disconcerts. He was one of the principal theorists of drama in the seventeenth century and yet he took a number of stands in direct and lonely opposition to his peers. Alain Couprie points out that Corneille "a toujours été un auteur suspect," …
