Modernist fiction and self: representing women and solitude in selected works by Virginia Woolf and Katherine Mansfield

Yeung, Siu Yin 08 January 2015 (has links)
Solitude and self have been common topics for discussion and scrutiny by philosophers, scholars and writers. However, it was not until the turn of the twentieth century, with women 's enlightenment, that one notices women writers ' interest in understanding their selves in moments of solitude. Women who were conscious of drastic social changes often examined their lives and explored their selves in solitude. Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf represent women writers of their time who shared a common interest in portraying women's quests for self in solitude. The present study shows how the solitary state is a significant precondition for modern women to reflect on their lives or explore their selves at a time when society was undergoing drastic changes. A close study of Katherine Mansfield 's "Frau Brechenmacher Attends a Wedding" (19 l 0), "Kezia and Tui" (1916), "Prelude" ( 1918), "At the Bay" ( 1922), and "All Serene!" (1923) shows that Mansfield always offers her women characters punitive consequences in the endings because of their compromise with their mundane conditions even though they have gained some sense of the self through contemplation and meditation. In the case of Virginia Woolf, she situates her women characters in isolation and contemplation, and often presents her women characters as active seekers of self through meditation and alienation. Autonomy, authenticity, and vision define these women's emerging self in such novels as Night and Day ( 1919), Orlando ( 1928), and To the Lighthouse ( 1927). The present study reveals Katherine Mansfield and Virginia Woolf as two exemplary women writers who examine women in moments of solitude through the interplay of social and psychological reality. Solitude is a recurrent condition and theme in their fiction that is often presented in "contrapuntal" manner (Dunbar ix). The contrast between women 's public and performative existence and their private and unmasked self characterises the fiction of Mansfield and Woolf, allowing the two writers to examine patriarchal oppression of women's acquisition of self against the backdrop of modernity. Mansfield and Woolf's treatment of solitude is particularly important as it sheds light on their shared views and friendship. Solitude is treated as a critical state, a condition, a private space, an attitude, or a refuge from performativity for women in their texts. Yet they have adopted distinct writing strategies in dealing with the subject owing to their difference in experience and literary outlook. Mansfield creates heroines who are more practical and modest in their approach to the subject of self-construction. Woolf creates women characters who often resort consciously to solitude to challenge and reflect upon gender norms, gain a better sense of their selves, and deploy various means to attain self-realisation.

The use of obsessions and delusions as a tragic device in the major plays of Eugene O'Neill

Thomas, Ruth Bartlett 01 January 1942 (has links)
This introductory chapter contains definitions of obsessions and delusions, and examines the validity of these ideas as tragic devices. It discusses obsessions from the point of view of Freud and Jung. The major plays of Eugene O’Neill have been divided into three psychological types: the first type we shall call the statement-of-the-problem plays; the second, the simple anima plays; the third, the complex anima plays. These terms and divisions will be explained as we proceed.

T. S. Eliot's theory of dramatic communication

Reinelt, Janelle G. 01 January 1972 (has links)
Thomas Stearns Eliot wrote only seven dramatic works, which include the unfinished fragments Sweeny Agonistes and the pageant play, The Rock. These works show the ways Eliot put into practice his own theories about the relationship of drama and verse. Although their relative merits are the subject of considerable critical controversy, each play affords a rich theatrical experience. This study attempts to assess the real value of Eliot’s work and seeks to explore the relationship between his avowed intentions to communicate in the theatre, and the finished product of his labors. Necessarily, we must examine his views on art, religion, drama, and verse because all of these are part of the creative process.

History of Erastus Snow

Olson, Joseph William 01 January 1935 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this Thesis has been to write, for the first time, an authentic, unbiased "Biography of Erastus Fairbanks Snow, Missionary, Pioneer, and Colonizer." Biography was chosen at the suggestion of Dr. Lowry Nelson, Professor of Rural Social Economics, of Brigham Young University, and because of a natural fondness for western history, and a sincere appreciation for the men and women who made "The West" liveable. For the particular subject chosen, I am indebted to Dr. William J. Snow, Professor of History at Brigham Young University.

Jules-A. Brillant et le bas St-Laurent

Voisine, Nive 25 April 2018 (has links)
Jules-André Brillant appartient déjà à la légende. En plus des histoires orales qui circulent à son sujet dans la région, il a fait plusieurs fois la manchette dans les journaux, à la radio et à la télévision. Pour ne citer que les exemples les plus importants, notons cette émission d'Entretien d'été que la télévision canadienne lui consacrait en août 1967 et qui était annoncée par un article dithyrambique publié dans Ici Radio-Canada et reproduit dans tous les journaux (1). Plus tôt, en juin 1965, la revue Time, édition canadienne, racontait sa carrière dans une page intitulée The Seigneurs of Rimouski et la résumait dans cette légende d'une photographie: "One utility led to another (2)". De même, en novembre 1965, le Star Weekly présentait la famille Brillant comme "a tribe of multi-millionnaires who might be described as a Gallic version of the Mitfords of Oxfordshire plus the Kennedys of Boston (3)". Ces articles retracent la carrière exceptionnelle du financier de Rimouski, sa montée prodigieuse du poste de commis de banque à la direction de grandes compagnies, ses succès de toutes sortes dans les affaires comme en politique. Ils insistent beaucoup sur le caractère spectaculaire de son ascension, laissant parfois de côté l'essentiel, le travail incessant de cet homme. Sans vouloir rejeter ce qui s'est dit et écrit sur Jules-A. Brillant, nous voulons aller plus loin et essayer d'analyser l'oeuvre qu'il a accomplie dans sa région. Notre propos n'est pas de faire une biographie complète et définitive de cet homme public; il nous semble trop tôt pour l'entreprendre avec succès. Nous voulons plus simplement étudier ce qu'il a fait pour ce qu'il appelle le Bas du Fleuve, ce qu'il a édifié, les innovations qu'il a lancées, les progrès qu'il a fait faire; mais nous nous demandons aussi dans quelle mesure il peut être comparé aux entrepreneurs américains du XIXe ou du XXe siècle qui ont joué un si grand rôle dans l'histoire économique des Etats-Unis. Enfin nous laissons de côté certains aspects de la carrière de Brillant - par exemple sa participation au monde de la haute finance - pour nous en tenir à son oeuvre régionale et à l'influence qu'il a jouée dans cette partie du Québec; de même nous arrêtons notre analyse vers 1950 au moment où le financier cède la gouverne de ses entreprises à ses fils. Pour répondre au but précis que nous nous sommes proposé, nous décrivons rapidement les réalisations les plus importantes de Brillant, puis, dans un deuxième chapitre, nous analysons d'une façon plus précise ce qu'apportaient de neuf ces réalisations et la philosophie sociale qui les sous-tendait. Enfin, nous avons voulu jeter un peu de lumière sur son influence politique, influence parfois obscure mais que tous devinent importante et qu'on est facilement porté à exagérer. Voilà donc ce que nous avons voulu inclure dans les trois chapitres intitulés: L'entrepreneur, L'homme du progrès, Le "boss" politique. / Québec Université Laval, Bibliothèque 2012

El nuevo periodismo de Abraham Valdelomar

Manriquez Álvarez, Victor Andrés 10 March 2016 (has links)
En la actualidad, la crónica goza de un prestigio particular debido a su manera de contarnos una historia. Esta fama se debe, en parte, al esfuerzo de un conjunto de periodistas estadounidenses de los años sesenta que rompieron los moldes impuestos por un discurso hegemónico que obró en detrimento de la innovación en la prensa. Agrupados bajo el rótulo de Nuevo Periodismo, estos cronistas adoptaron una postura estilística que incluía técnicas y recursos de la ficción para mejorar la calidad informativa de sus textos periodísticos. Cincuenta años antes, en el Perú, un joven periodista se había adelantado a estos cronistas: Abraham Valdelomar. Entre 1915 a 1917, el escritor nacional publicó crónicas en donde conjuga el periodismo y la literatura –al igual que lo hicieron los reporteros estadounidenses– con el fin de distinguirse de las convenciones de la prensa diaria. Esta tesis tiene como objetivo principal reconstruir el sentido de las crónicas de Abraham Valdelomar, a partir de los procedimientos de la novela realista, y demostrar cómo y con qué propósito aplicó estas técnicas en sus crónicas. La tesis se divide en cuatro capítulos que nos ayudarán a entender por qué aplicó estos artilugios de la ficción en sus textos periodísticos.
