Realism in Charles Mungoshi's novelsNyandoro, Farayi, 1964- 06 1900 (has links)
Early written Shona narratives like Solomon Mutswairo's Feso [Thorn; name of main
character, 1982] evince fantasy since they emanated from folktales, a genre that
abounds in this element. Contrary to this, Charles Mungoshi attempts to portray life
faithfully in Makunun'unu Maodzamwoyo [Brooding breeds despair, 1977], Ndiko
Kupindana Kwamazuva [How time passes, 1975] and Kunyarara Hakusi Kutaura? [Is
silence not a form of speech? 1983].
This study attempts to show how this realism manifests itself in the components that
constitute each of the works: setting, plot, characterisation, theme and style.
Mungoshi's characters, for instance, are not one-sided supernatural beings who
perform fabulous acts. Instead, they have strengths and limitations like people in
everyday life. Their actions and speech are consistent with their social backgrounds.
By injecting realism into the Shona narrative, Mungoshi has contributed towards its
development. Due to this realism, the works deserve the label "novels" as opposed to
"romances". / African Languages / M.A. (African languages)

How Computer Use Functions as an Aspect of Literacy Development : A Qualitative Description of a Second-grade ClassroomKostelnik, Joyce L. 12 1900 (has links)
In this study, the researcher investigated how computer use functions as an aspect of literacy development within a second-grade classroom. The researcher sought to gather data to help define the role that computer use plays in the literacy development of elementary school students by concentrating on how computers are actually used in the classroom being studied, and by looking for relationships revealed by students' and teacher's beliefs about computer use in the classroom.

Anti-Romance: How William Shakespeare’s “King Lear” Informed John Keats’s “Lamia”Gonzalez, Shelly S 25 March 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis is to analyze John Keats’s “Lamia” and his style of Anti-Romance as informed by William Shakespeare’s own experimentation with Romance and Anti-Romance in “King Lear.”
In order to fulfill the purpose of my thesis, I explore both the Romance and the Anti-Romance genres and develop a definition of the latter that is more particular to “King Lear” and “Lamia.” I also look at the source material for both “King Lear” and “Lamia” to see how Shakespeare and Keats were handling the originally Romantic material. Both Shakespeare and Keats altered the original material by subverting the traditional elements of Romance.
In conclusion, the thesis suggests that Shakespeare’s Anti-Romance, “King Lear,” and his general reworking of the Romance genre within that play informed Keats’s own experimentation with and deviation from the traditional Romance genre, particularly in “Lamia.”
