American Nirvana: Immigration As Hindu Transformation In The Fiction Of Bharati Mukherjee, Shefali Milczarek-Desai

Whittier Scholars Program

The stories of Indian immigrant women have never been more than barely audible whispers in the telling of American immigrant history. Bharati Mukherjee, herself an Indian woman and immigrant, chooses to amplify these whispers, and in the process reveals stories of women who leave Mother India and discover new ways of seeing themselves after journeying to America. Mukherjee’s tales are inevitably about the growth and changes in personal identity immigrants undergo once they separate from their homes and cultures, yet they emphasize the uniqueness of Indian women’s experiences in America. Mukherjee’s heroines come from a predominately Hindu culture that assigns …

James Tyrrell, John Locke, And Robert Filmer: Ideas On Property In Late Seventeenth Century England, Christopher Chatlos Strangeman

Masters Theses

In this thesis, I examine the political theories of Sir Robert Filmer, John Locke, and James Tyrrell and, in turn, compare their respective conceptions of property which are at the foundation of their political theories. This political debate about property must be set amongst the political circumstances of the exclusion crisis. Arising from the Whig-Tory division, which arose in part from the Popish Plot, Filmer, Locke, and Tyrrell reveal the ideas of the parties they represented. Locke and Tyrrell, as Whig representatives, refuted the patriarchal theory of Filmer's Patriarcha, representative of the Tory party. In refuting Filmer, Locke and …

"Time Is One": The Temporal Aspect Of The Hopi Language And Its Experimental Application In Postmodernist Novels, Peter Buru

Masters Theses

My thesis examines the relationship between the temporal aspects of the language of the Hopi Indians, based on Benjamin Lee Whorf’s linguistic analyses, and postmodernist narrative theory. Within postmodernism itself, the study focuses on the narratives' handling of time and space, as illustrated by the following novels: Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson; Time's Arrow by Martin Amis; Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.; and Almanac of the Dead by Leslie Marmon Silko.

The study investigates how these postmodernist novels experiment with the application of a timeless temporal scheme. This scheme originates from what I refer to as Benjamin Lee Whorf’s …
