Integrative Motivation As A Predictor Of Success In The Intermediate Foreign Language Classroom, Todd A. Hernandez

Spanish Languages and Literatures Research and Publications

This study investigates the ability of three variables—integrative motivation, instrumental motivation, and the need to fulfill a university foreign language requirement—to predict: (1) scores on a simulated oral proficiency interview (SOPI) and (2) the desire to enroll in a foreign language after fulfilling the language requirement. Analysis of data from a questionnaire and a SOPI administered to 130 students completing their fourth‐semester Spanish course identified integrative motivation as a significant predictor of both SOPI scores and students' desire to continue studying Spanish beyond the four‐semester foreign language requirement. A negative relationship was also found between the need to fulfill the …

Resurrecting Lope's Autos, Errol Leroy King

Theses and Dissertations

By the turn of the seventeenth century, the auto sacramental quickly became the most elaborate dramatic genre in Spain. Shortly after the Council of Trent, professional playwrights replaced clerics who had previously written autos for the Corpus Christi celebrations held each year, but none were more influential than Lope de Vega in refining thematic, literary, and staging elements and techniques. At the middle of the nineteenth century, critics began to study the genre that a royal decree had banned almost a century earlier; however, few have dedicated much time to Lope's autos. As a result, most critics have misunderstood …

Flarr Pages #56: How Sweet It Is To See The Homeland At Night, Mary Thrond

FLARR Pages

Maria Teresa Leon's poetic depiction of the anguish of exile has earned her recognition as a vibrant voice of twentieth century Spanish literature. She was a writer at the forefront of political and intellectual activity during her beloved Spain's civil war (1936-1939). Compelled by the struggle for justice, she portrayed the suffering of the oppressed and disempowered, specifically women, children and workers.

La RepresentacióN Del Indio En La NovelíStica De José MaríA Arguedas, Teresa Gizzi

Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects

La meta principal de esta tesina es analizar la representación del indio en la sociedad peruana de los años treinta. Esta sociedad se encuentra en conflicto, además, fría y cruelmente jerarquizada. El indio inocente es maltratado y subyugado ante la mirada angustiada de un pueblo que presencia aterrorizado la extinción de su raza y usurpación de su propio territorio. Falsos poderes hipócritamente se debaten en una lucha interna, haciendo creer que han de ayudar al indio, pero la única solución es la doble marginalidad del ya desgastado estrato de una sociedad farsante. Las críticas de Sodonie Smith, Julia Watson y …

Language Acquisition And Cognitive Development, Veronica Regueiro

Whittier Scholars Program

Language is one of the attributes which set human beings apart from all other creatures. Although it can be argued that some animals , such as apes, exhibit a kind of language, the “language” used by animals and the thought of animals stem from different roots and also develop along different lines. The way animals think is in no way related to their language. Animal language functions apart from animal intellect. His project focuses on the relationship between language acquisition and cognitive development. It analyzes and cohesively explains the research done in the field, and any progress made in determining …

Labyrinths of the Language: Shaping the "I" in Norah Lange and Rosa Chacel's Narrative

Although the Avant-Garde movement spread internationally in the early 1900's, very few women in Spain and Latin America were recognized for their contributions to a new style of prose. The purpose of this thesis is to study the representation of the subject and the fragmentation of the "I" in the narrative of Norah Lange and Rosa Chacel. Both writers were iconoclastic in the use of new forms and influenced the way literature and the arts were perceived in their era. They marked a new beginning to …

Cartas Y Memorias Como RepresentacióN Humana Y Literaria De Federico GarcíA Lorca Y Pablo Neruda, Dalia Milagros Santiago

Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects

Every writer has a history behind his work. Most of the time, his personal life becomes part of his literature. His life becomes transparent through his literary work as well as through his personal writings, in this case, in his personal letters to family members and friends and also in his memories. It is through these letters that we get to know the person, his life related to history as well as their worries of his literary performance towards society. Due to this, I have found imperative the need of the study of the letters of Federico García Lorca and …
