Walk in WaterMoore, Andrew 01 January 2007 (has links)
A collection of nonfiction stories about places, traveling, and living in Florida. Themes include the impacts of development and growth on home and identity; stability in a rapidly changing environment; how modes of travel affect experience; and apathy on the part of Floridians. I have attempted to connect Florida's history to experiences in my life, and in the life of a place. I was interested in my connection to the land and living things, and how Floridians in general are or aren't connected to land; how we are or aren't connected to the history of these places.

ZoraTyrrell, Genevieve 01 January 2013 (has links)
This mixed-media memoir uses a variety of forms from short epigrammatic essays to straightforward stories and graphic narratives to explore the author’s coming-of-age experiences augmented by chronic illness. Trying to succeed in the film industry, romance, and family situations, the young female narrator navigates the often unexpected or disappointing consequences of having an autonomic nervous system disorder. Relationships between conflicting identities emerge—between healthy versus sick self, projected/envisioned versus actual self, and tough versus vulnerable self—as the narrator journeys toward a more complete and accepting self-understanding.

Joan Didion's Iconic Nonfiction: Mass Media Distortion of the Written FormBeriker, Emma A. 01 January 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores Joan Didion’s concern of mass media’s infiltration on the processing and communication of her personal reality and memory. Didion herself communicates an anxiety of the infiltration of mass media into her individual communication of her unique, indescribable experience. Yet, she too is unable to escape this and instead, is forced to make this an act of adaptation, not separation. Mass media pervades Didion’s own mind, taking over her processing of experience and memory through the modes of photography and film. With these forms of mass media, Didion seeks a purity of personal expression through the form of writing. Ultimately, this proves to be just as problematic and is unable to escape the influence of mass media’s depersonalized representations of individual human experience.

Home: A MemoirLovell, Bonnie Alice 08 1900 (has links)
Home: A Memoir, a creative non-fiction thesis, is a memoir in the form of personal essays, each exploring some aspect of the meaning of home, how my sense of self has been formed by my relationship to home, and the inevitability of leaving home. Chapter I explores the nature of memory and of memoir, their relationship to each other and to truth, and how a writer's voice shapes memoir. Chapter II, “Paternity,” is an attempt to remember my father, resulting in renewed interest in his past and renewed awareness of his legacy. Chapter III, “Home,” is on the surface about my grandparents' house, but is really about my grandmother. Chapter IV, “Dixie,” is about my contradictory feelings for the South, and my eventual acceptance of the South's complexities.
