The dissertation is about an ambitious, rural young woman who aspires to be a great performing artist. Rabeka Maru-a-pula, spurns a marriage proposal, from an eligible bachelor attending her church because she feels that marriage will be an impediment to her unrealised dreams. Her parents are very upset by her decision. She meets her former teacher, TM who, appreciative of her amateur acting experience, invites her to join his project, 'Realise Your Dream.' This step initiates a lasting friendship from which she will draw support and encouragement when she encounters trials in the future.

Jungiaanse argetipes in die poësie van Ingrid Jonker, Sylvia Plath en Anne Sexton

Brüggemann, I January 2007 (has links)
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 143-149). / Poets are able to express symbols in words by way of what C. G. Jung called "archetypes". This is an investigation of the feasibility that poets who wrote independently worldwide, were able to use the same imagery in their poetry without being able to copy it from each other. There are several similarities between the poets discussed. In the first place they lost a parent when they were still children. Secondly they all committed suicide and (thirdly) they were excellent poets. Their lives were characterised by a search for something they believed they could only find in death. These there issues could almost be put into a mathematical formula where [loss of significant other] + [artistic ability] = depression & suicidality/certain poetic elements (e.g. the use of "ek"/"I"). The focus of the study is the symbolism in the discussed poems, especially water, stone and moon imagery, and Jungian theories are used to explain these. Biographical information is also used to gain a better understanding of the poetry. Ingrid Jonker, Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton's poetry is initially analysed (as well as that of Eugène N. Marais and Sara Teasdale). Later more poets enter the discussion, such as Attila József, Cesare Pavese and Marina Tsvetaeva. The therapeutic value of writing poetry is investigated as well as the possibility of plagiarism, Antjie Krog's Die sterre sê 'tsau' enters the argument in order to substantiate Jung's hypotheses was well as to balance Stephen Watson's accusations of Krog. Finally the approach of this thesis gets a closer look.

A House by the Water

Yang, Victor Wei Ke 25 May 2021 (has links)
Please note: this work is permanently embargoed in OpenBU. No public access is forecasted for this item. To request private access, please click on the locked Download file link and fill out the appropriate web form. / A House by the Water tells the story of a Chinese immigrant family through multiple voices: that of a twenty-eight-old gay son, but also those of his parents. The father, Jun, is desperate for a solution to his son’s problem. As a scientist, he pores over clinical studies, but he fails to find a cure for homosexuality. Liya, a hotel housekeeper, suffers a stroke after hearing the news. Eric, the son, turns to conversion therapy. As mother and father seek to save Eric, and as Eric attempts to save himself, some call their actions homophobia; others insist it is love. The distinctions are not as simple as they may appear: hate or love, gay or straight, desire or duty. This is about a story about members of a family who reckon with the secrets they have kept from themselves and one another. Whereas queer people have to come out of a closet, immigrants have to assimilate into one. In America, we learn to hide the truest parts of ourselves, for only then can we escape shame and humiliation. We can keep these secrets in real life, but in the novel, the characters cannot continue playing pretend. A House by the Water explores the unintended consequences of truth-telling, and what it means to love someone who was never the person you thought they were. / 2999-01-01T00:00:00Z

Essence Apparatus

Schrattenholz, Maria Dorothea 28 June 2022 (has links)
Essence Apparatus is a collection of fiction short stories rooted in poetry and the traditions of ‘the uncanny' and ‘weird' writing. Included are also three expository essays relating to my creative work and its contextual and theoretical underpinnings, going in-depth on my relationship with the genre of science fiction and its literary device ‘cognitive estrangement', the tradition of writing the uncanny and the weird, and my Scandinavian and South African sources of inspiration. The short story collection Essence Apparatus feature zombies in Finland; an animalistic metamorphosis on the archipelago of Svalbard; the Chernobyl accident; humans living on Mars returning to their origins on Earth, but also interpersonal relationships between a daughter and her father, two sisters, and lovers. The stories explore the hard problem of consciousness and other philosophical questions; the search for knowledge and a feeling of belonging in a nature not fully understood, and the mechanisms of translocation and transfiguration as a fundamental part of being human.
