Un mundo para Julius publicerades 1970 och är en roman av den peruanske författaren Alfredo Bryce Echenique. Romanen utspelar sig i 1950-talets Lima och skildrar en peruansk överklassfamilj och dess sociala liv med fester, sociala tillställningar och en stor stab av tjänstefolk. Huvudperson är Julius, en pojke på två till tio år, med vars öppna barnablick vi får följa familjens öden och missöden. Romanen är en ironisk och humoristisk skildring av familjens överklassliv. Syftet har varit att undersöka dels vilken typ av ironi som författaren använder sig av, dels vilka litterära funktioner som ironin fyller i romanen. Olika definitioner av ironi gås igenom samt att July de Wildes metod, El efecto irónico: un instrumento analítico presenteras och sedan används för att genomföra analysen. Resultatet visar att författaren använder sig av en rad olika strategier för att möjliggöra ironiska tolkningar; retoriska stilfigurer, överdrifter, humor, olika perspektiv som möjliggörs av romanens polyfoniska karaktär samt inkongruens mellan olika perspektiv. Ironin går också att identifiera och tolka på olika nivåer; semantisk, värderande samt textuell, kontextuell och intertextuell nivå.  Undersökningen visar att romanen möjliggör ironiska tolkningar av den peruanska överklassens position, privilegier, världsbild samt människors beteende i ett starkt hierarkiskt samhälle.

"The purpose of this study was to determine the significant differences between the responses of principal relatives of newly hospitalized male mental patients, to different form letters from the Social Service Department at The Bryce Hospital, Tuscaloosa, Alabama. These responses were dichotomized by: (1) the responses of the relatives who received the original Social Service form letter; and (2) the responses of the relatives who received the revised version of the aforementioned form letter, which was reconstructed by the author of this study to include the application of selected basic social casework principles to its content"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "August, 1961." / "Submitted to the Graduate School of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." / Advisor: Howard Borsuk, Professor Directing Study. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 54-57).

Nascent Dreams (2012) is a work for full orchestra that explores the elasticity of form as musical analogy. In a programmatic context, each thematic section can be interpreted as representing landscapes or events encountered while dreaming. Listeners are privy to the nascency of each section before the music whisks one away to the next soundscape. Musically, the work emphasizes melody and lyricism in order to establish a song-like quality throughout.

This thesis is written as an experiment in instrumentation and the factors of technical limitations of the typical Class C high school band. The criteria used in determining the instrumentation and the difficulty of the composition are certain findings with regard to grading of high school band music as found in John Phillip Dalby's Doctoral Dissertation, A STUDY OF INSTRUMENTATION, MUSICAL ACTIVITIES AND TECHNICAL COMPETENCE AS FACTORS IN ARRANGING FOR HIGH SCHOOL BAND.

Informe de Seminario para optar al grado de Licenciado en Lengua y Literatura Hispánica. / El presente estudio tiene el objetivo de analizar la segunda novela del escritor peruano Alfredo Bryce Echenique titulada Tantas veces Pedro publicada por primera vez bajo el sello Ediciones Libre-I, en Lima el año 1977. La novela Tantas veces Pedro se sitúa dentro de la generación del 72´ compartiendo la visión de mundo y el modo de entender la realidad que sus representantes proponen a través de sus obras. Esto tiene relación con las teorías que proponen la fragmentariedad y la intersticialidad como la forma en que el hombre puede aprehender el mundo.

This thesis offers an analysis of the novel La ultima mudanza de Felipe Carrillo of the Peruvian writer Alfredo Bryce Echenique. It is an approach to the narrative strategies which allow the reader to recreate an oral atmosphere through writing, and which propose, consequently, new perspectives to reading fiction. / First, the distinctive features of the Post-boom novel are studied so that the links which associate Bryce's work with this literary period can be established (chapter one). Second, the narrative techniques presented in the novel are studied, namely, orality, musical and literary intertexts, digression, and dialogic unstableness (chapter two). These elements---especially orality and intertextuality---make possible the construction of a conversational dynamic in which the author develops the different thematic axes of his work: search for love (chapter three), search of a national, as well as a social and creative identities (chapter four), and literary self-consciousness (chapter five).

A comprehensive fuel load assessment of all plant communities in Bryce Canyon National Park is provided. Fuel loads by community type are pooled into "fuel type associations" based on similarity in predicted fire behavior, and the fuel type associations are mapped throughout the Park. For each fuel type association, a series of fire behavior simulations is presented describing expected rates of spread and intensities for typical conditions in each month of the fire season and for a worst-case scenario. These fire behavior predictions provide guidelines for writing prescribed burning prescriptions or for quickly assessing the need for possible fire suppression and the amount of effort required to suppress particular fires.
