Hans Lodeizen is reeds in 1950 oorlede en alhoewel sy bundel Het lnnerlijk behang reeds meer herdrukke beleef het as enige bundel van bekender Vyftigers soos Remco Campert en Hans Andreus, het daar tot dusver sIegs twee krltiese studies en verder korter artikels oor sy digkuns verskyn. Heelwat kritici wys ook op die romantiese trekke in sy digkuns, maar soos bevestig deur De Rover, is daar nog nie aandag gegee aan wat hierdie "romantiek" dan werklik behels nie. As 'n mens die gedigte van Hans Lodeizen en die kritiese werke daaroor lees, word dit gou duidelik dat daar oënskynlik sterk romantiese trekke in sy digkuns aanwesig is, maar dat dit tog nie suiwer romantiek is nle. Soos Rodenko dit uitdruk: "hij is geen romanticus-uit-één-stuk, maar een gebroken romanticus." Deur twee kritici, nl. Stuiveling en Cartens word hy onderskeidelik egter as ekspressionis en surrealis bestempel. Wanneer ons verder in aanmerking neem dat Lodeizen algemeen aanvaar word as die voorloper, of as lid van die Vyftigers wat skerp van die Romantiek verskil, ontstaan die vraag of dit geregverdig is om Lodeizen as 'n "gebroke" of wat-dan-ook-al romantikus te beskou. Die doel van hierdie tesis is dan om na te gean in hoeverre daar weI sprake van romantiese nalewing in sy digkuns is en of dit net nawerking is. In aansluiting by Ziolkowski sal ons van nalewing praat wanneer 'n sekere gegewe, wat ons op grond van die ontleding van die Romantiek in die eerste hoofstuk as "romanties" ervaar, uit die gees van 'n moderne werk spruit. As nawerking beskou ons dan daardie gevalle waar dit duidelik is, dat ons met 'n teksgedeelte oneie aan die gees van die res van die teks te make het, wat nie op die selfde tydsvlak bestaan nie as die teks waarin dit ingebed is. Aangesien nalewing georiënteer is op die ideologiese inhoud van 'n algemene geesteshouding soos dit in die literêre denke tot uitdrukking kom, moet daar eers vasgestel word of daar wel so 'n gedagtekompleks by verskillende Romantiese digters aan te toon is, want slegs enkele, losstaande elemente vorm nog geensins 'n geesteshoudlng of styl nie. Dit is dan die doel van die volgende hoofstuk, terwyl die daaropvolgende hoofstukke sal probeer vasstel of die hoofkenmerke van die tipologiese romantiek wel in die werk van Hans Lodeizen aanwesig is.

The rapid settlement of North America in the seventeenth century was motivated by the dream of success— a dream which the numerous possibilities of that virgin land inspired. The new land of America suggested the possible achievement of a heaven upon earth: the realization of the Utopian myth of timeless perfection. Throughout the subsequent growth of the Republic, this American dream, because of its tremendous strength and of its powerful influence as myth, completely captivated the imagination of the Americans. Consequently, a unique pattern of thought evolved in America; one that has given form and significance to the political, cultural, social, and religious life of the nation; one, in fact, that has moulded the entire history of the United States of America. In this thesis, The American Nightmare, I have attempted to illustrate the effect of the American dream on American literature, particularly on the work of F. Scott Fitzgerald and of James Baldwin. To do this successfully, however, I found it necessary to define the American dream: to trace its origins and subsequent development. Moreover, I have suggested that the American dream, once a vital force because it was relevant to the facts of life in America (or apparently so), has, in the twentieth century, become a nightmare, dedicated to illusion and hypocrisy. Indeed, the literature of the chosen writers reflects not only their preoccupation with the American dream and its influence, but also their desire to reveal and to analyse the apparent failure of this dream and the disillusionment, the despiritualisation, and the inhumanity which the quest for success has engendered in America. The society depicted in the novels I have selected for discussion is a bewildered one--an "incoherent" one. The authors themselves, despite their insight into the problems of American life, are indeed victims of the Medusa-like American dream. The thesis is divided into four sections. Section One, "The American Dream," discussing the settlement of America in the seventeenth century, examines the origins of the dream. Moreover, it traces the development and increasing secularization of the dream in the eighteenth century, witnesses the westward expansion of American settlement and its effect upon the nineteenth century vision of America's future, and, finally, reveals the failure of the dream and the subsequent fear, disillusion and bewilderment in twentieth century America. In short, this section shows how the American dream, once a vital force in American life, has now become a "nightmare"—a mirage which frequently lures many to self-destruction. Sections Two and Three treat specific works of Fitzgerald (This Side of Paradise and The Great Gatsby) and of Baldwin (Giovanni's Room and Another Country) respectively in the light of the American dream. The thesis concludes with a brief survey of the lives of the two writers, and an evaluation of the effect of the American dream upon their careers. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

The works of Joseph Conrad and Jules Verne share a fascination with geography: concern with geographical issues made explicit in their non-fictional works is also implicit in their fiction. Unfortunately, limited knowledge of or interest in geographic theory on the part of the literary critic has made the relation between literature and geography a relatively unpopular focus; to redress the balance, it is necessary to outline briefly some of the ways in which geographical theory may usefully inform the practice of literary criticism. Areas to be introduced include geography and literature as spatial distribution, as spatial perception, as inscription on and description of the environment, as text, as cultural matrix. The above areas serve as a focus for the comparative analysis of a series of novels by Joseph Conrad and Jules Verne in which three issues are foregrounded: first, the interrelations between concentrated place and surrounding space in the sea-tales The Nigger of the Narcissus and Vingt mille lieues sous les mers; second, the reading and writing of cultural landscape in Heart of Darkness and Voyage au centre de la terre; third, the geopolitics of territory, boundary and landclaim in Lord Jim and L'lle mystérieuse. In each case, relevant geographical theory is drawn upon: in the first instance, the phenomenological notions of Yi-Fu Tuan and Edward Relph; in the second, the landscape evaluations of Carl Sauer and Courtice Rose; in the third, the geopolitical and politico-geographical definitions of Glassner, De Blij and Cohen. The first section (on The Nigger of the Narcissus and Vingt mille lieues sous les mers) explores the spatial notions of topophilia, placelessness and geometricity inherent in the relation between ship and sea. The second section (on Heart of Darkness and Voyage au centre de la terre) discusses the various connotations of landscape: cultural imprint (rewriting), false perspective (mis-reading), textual sign-system (encoding/decoding), which suggest that landscape can be interpreted as a controlling mechanism of and means of access to the text. The third section (on Lord Jim and L' Ile mystérieuse) outlines the geographical motifs of the two novels (division, (dis)possession, ascent and descent, etc.) and infers possible motives behind these motifs, relating topographical issues to personal and political ones and paying particular attention to the implications of island environments and communities and to the connections between imperialism, colonialism and narrative strategy. Finally, the 'literary geography' of Conrad's and Verne's novels is situated in its historical context and related particularly to the late nineteenth-century debate on the relative merits of positivism and phenomenology. In Verne's work, the doctrine of positivism, which has been constituted in terms of an ideology of science, is only celebrated in so far as its limitations are recognized. In Conrad's work, man's struggle to conquer Nature through a physical and verbal mastery of his environment is reinterpreted as an attempt to overcome his own duality. Conrad's predominantly phenomenological geography of the mind serves as a critique of positivist doctrine, but its fractured topography also suggests that the attempt to substitute 'more traditional views of the social and moral order' (Watt, 163) is, perhaps, little more than a saving illusion. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

O trabalho traça o perfil de Diniz, pesquisador que "descobriu" estes motetos quaresmais na atualidade e apresenta defesa da "autenticidade das cópias manuscritas", ao datar, por aproximação, os originais encontrados em seu acervo, através da análise de conteúdos, conforme Laurence Bardin (2011), de "pistas informativas" deixadas em "notas" nas suas transcrições. A contextualização histórica ¿ fundamentada em autores afora o âmbito musical, porém dentro da esfera artística como Marcílio Lins Reinaux (1975) e Leonardo Dantas Silva (2011) ¿ dirige o estudo ao locus, meio social e biografia do compositor, bem como aos motivos da criação das obras e sua inserção no âmbito da cerimônia religiosa católica denominada "Procissão dos Passos" descrita por Paulo Castagna (2000). O estudo analítico apresentado, sem pretender esgotar as possibilidades, faz uma apreciação dos motetos a partir do sentido dos textos que os compõem, expressos através de elementos retórico-musicais detectados. A edição das partituras para fins logísticos no desenvolvimento da dissertação, anexada ao final do trabalho, constitui-se fator que possibilitará futura realização e busca tornar públicas as obras apresentadas / Abstract: This dissertation is based on Pernambuco Colonial¿s collection of musical research conducted by Jaime Cavalcanti Diniz (1924-1989) ¿ which is gathered at Ricardo Brennand Institue¿s library in Recife ¿ and it aims to study the musical pieces entitled Sete Motetos ... and Miserere para os Sermões da Quaresma, both assigned by the musicologist to the eighteenth century composer from Recife Luiz Álvares Pinto (1719-1789). The work outlines Diniz¿s profile, a researcher who "has discovered" those motets at present, and it brings forward a defense of "authenticity of manuscript copies" when dating, by approximation, the originals found in his collection through analysis of contents, according to Laurence Bardin¿s references (2011) about "informative clues" left on "notes" written in his transcriptions. The historical context ¿ based on authors out of the musical context nevertheless inside the artistic sphere such as Marcílio Lins Reinaux (1975) and Leonardo Dantas Silva (2011) ¿ guides the research to the locus, to the social environment and biography of the composer, as well as to the reasons about the creation of those works and their insertion within a Catholic religious ceremony called "Procession of the Stations", as described by Paulo Castagna (2000). The analytical research described here, without attempting to exhaust its future possibilities, makes an assessment of motets concerning of the meaning of the texts that compound them, expressed through the rhetorical-musical elements detected. The edition of the sheet music for logistical purposes in the development of the dissertation, attached to the end of the work, constitutes an important issue that will enable future performances and aims to make public the artistic works presented here / Mestrado / Fundamentos Teoricos / Mestre em Música

Desde 1900, ano da incorporação definitiva da área ao território brasileiro, sucessivas migrações nacionais e estrangeiras, algumas naturais e outras induzidas pelo Estado, transitaram por essa área, sendo que somente uma pequena população efetivamente nela se fixou. Esta tese de doutorado vem preencher um vazio existente nos estudos históricos sobre o tema, articulando as ações empreendidas pelos diversos agentes desse povoamento. A partir dos discursos deixados pelos protagonistas do processo foi realizado um mapeamento etnográfico dessa variada população. Também foi feita uma análise do papel do Estado na implementação de uma política de soberania e de uma mecânica de disciplinas através de suas instituições. É ainda relevante neste trabalho a cartografia recuperada da vila de Clevelândia, palco central dessa história e para onde foram confinados, entre 1924 e 1927, os prisioneiros da Revolução de 1924 em São Paulo. Entre estes, pelo tratamento recebido e pela vida diferenciada, merecem destaques os ativistas anarquistas detidos durante a revolta / Abstract: The border by Oiapoque's river, which is located between the currently called Amapá State and French Guyana, was a land on which lay several litigious dispute between both countries as well as a slow occupation process by the Brazilian State. Since 1900, the year that occurred the definite attachment of the land to Brazilian territory, following local and external migrations, some of them absolutely natural whereas others were stimulated by the State, went through this area, although only a few actually settled down. This PhD thesis comes up in order to fulfill some of the gaps, which exists in historical studies on the subject, handling the deeds of the diverse settlement agents. From the speeches given by the protagonists of such process, an ethnographic map was made based on this diverse population. It was also made an analysis about the governmental role in the making of national sovereignty as well as in the mechanic of disciplines through its institutions. It is also of major importance to bring up the recovered cartography of Clevelandia's village, the center stage of this history and where the prisoners of the 1924 Revolution were confined. Amid them, the anarchist revolutionary who were arrested during the revolution deserve to be evidenced due to the treatment then received and for their unusual lifestyle / Doutorado / Doutor em História

Dr. Alexis F. Lange is living forever in this chosen field, not in a mosaic of marble, but in the lives and actions of men and women today, who came in personal contact with his warm congenial personality and the inspiration of his spirit and ideals. It was largely through his efforts in establishing the junior high schools and the junior colleges, that the school children of today are able to live in situations better adapted to their educational needs.

By birth, education, and association, Henry Cabot Lodge belonged to an established New England tradition of attention to history and respect for historical writing. He lived during troubled times, and he realized, as his writings indicate, that America was rapidly changing, that old habits were disappearing, and that powerful new forces were at work in the nation and the world. How Lodge reacted to these circumstances is reflected, in part, in his historical writing. This thesis is an examination of Lodge's historiographic efforts. It is an attempt, through an analysis of style and predominant themes, to describe the cultural values that lie behind simple historical narrative.
