An Analysis of the Major Characteristics of American Black Humor NovelsTyler, Alice Carol 05 1900 (has links)
This thesis serves to classify Black Humor as a philosophy, which holds that the world is meaningless and absurd, and as a literary technique. Historical origins are discussed and the idea is related to a reflection of the middle-class syndrome of twentieth century man. Close philosophical and literary relatives are presented and a pure work isn't defined. Black Humor literary characteristics are described in terms of style, theme, plot, setting, chronology, and characteristic ending. Black Humor characters are classified as "non-heroes" divided into four categories. Prevalent use and treatment of traditional forbidden subjects of sex, defecation, money, violence, emotionlessness, religion, death, and "illogical" logic are stressed. In summary, Cat's Cradle is examined in light of the Black Humor characteristics described and found to be other than a pure Black Humor work.

Theme of despair in Charles Mungoshi's Shona works : a critical studyMangoya, Esau 11 1900 (has links)
The study makes an analysis of Charles Mungoshi's Shona works from a Modernist
perspective. In this study, Modernist literature is shown as full of change and adventure
that has seen characters failing to catch up with the speed at which their social lives are
going. The change is continuos and has resulted in many characters continuously failing to
cope, which in turn has resulted in continuous frustrations, here described as despair. The
study also shows how the despair is being nurtured in the circumstances of crumbling
social institutions which, in the past, had acted as the haven for devastated individuals.
The crumbling social institutions are shown to be triggering the despair and the characters
are given no room to recuperate. The study makes an analysis of what brings this despair
and how in the end, particular individual characters fight to ward off the despair. / African Languages / M.A. (African Languages)
