The focus of this study is upon Gerard Manley Hopkins~s literary opinions about the state of affairs of Victorian England regarding its defence, religions, science, politics, the economy, and other concerns. His claim to a legitimate voice lies in the tremendous amount of erudite knowledge he accumulated over the years, on many different subjects, and his classical education. Major focus is on his pristine awareness of the Anglo-Saxons and their language of Old English. Hopkins's unique style of writing poetry and his contribution to Victorian philology is highlighted. The work also deals, in some degree, with his mental state at various periods in his life, and attempts to disclose an overcoming of the anguish and depression evident in the poems. His enduring spirit under the grave swamping of Christianity by destructive discourses is another major theme. / ENGLISH STUDIES / M.A. (ENGLISH)

While often assumed, Gerard Manley Hopkins' influence on Dylan Thomas has needed substantiation. By placing the issue of Hopkins' influence on Thomas within critical, historical, and literary contexts, this study explores the issue and demonstrates Hopkins' influence. Summary and assessment of previous critical work on the issue of Hopkins' influence establish the ways in which this study continues, diverges from or completes work done in the past. Evidence from biographical work on Thomas, as well as his letters and prose, outlines his contact with Hopkins' poems. A discussion of Thomas' Welsh background relates his experience of Wales and Welsh prosody to Hopkins' corresponding experiences. The literary context of the issue of Hopkins' influence on Thomas is established by means of a two-part foundation. First, the possible influence of W. B. Yeats, Wilfred Owen, Hart Crane, and James Joyce on Thomas is distinguished from Hopkins' influence. Second, specifically Hopkinsian areas of influence on Thomas are discussed. These areas of influence serve as a critical framework within which six Thomas poems dating from 1934 to 1951 are analyzed.

O foco será a ação de Horace Lane junto aos administradores da instrução pública paulista, em especial, Caetano de Campos e Oscar Thompson. Além da revisão dos trabalhos que focam a influência protestante na organização da instrução pública paulista, tomamos como fontes privilegiadas os relatórios oficiais, artigos editados em periódicos educacionais produzidos no período, documentos pessoais de Horace Lane e a edição do livro Education in the State of São Paulo, de autoria do Oscar Thompson, Horace Lane e Carlos Reis, apresentado na Feira Internacional de Saint Louis em 1904. O objetivo central é analisar atuação de Lane na instrução pública e evidenciar a influência da ação protestante em terras paulistas. Esta pesquisa está apoiada nas premissas de Marta Carvalho de uma História Cultural dos Saberes Pedagógicos, dialogando em torno, de suas práticas, seus agentes, suas representações e apropriações para uma nova compreensão da escola. Como resultado, este estudo permite dar visibilidade às contribuições de Horace Lane na consolidação da instrução pública paulista proposta pelos republicanos / The purpose of this study is to chart the contributions of Horce Manley in the constitution of the republican school of São Paulo, from around 1890 to 1910. The main focus is the actions of Horace Lane along the administrators of the public instruction of São Paulo, specially Caetano de Campos and Oscar Thompson. Besides the revision of studies that focus on the protestant influence in the organization of the public instruction of São Paulo, we used as privileged sources the official reports, personal documents of Horace Lane and the edition of the book „Eduaction in the State of São Paulo‟, whose authors are Oscar Thompson, Horace Lane and Carlos Reis. This book was presented at the Saint Louis International fair back in 1904. The main purpose is to analyze the interaction of Lane in the public instruction and to point the protestant influence of it. This research is supported in the assumptions of Marta Carvalho from the research “Cultural History of the pedagogical knowledge”, discussing around her practices, her agents, her representations and appropriations for a new comprehension of the school. As a result, this study allows us to highlight the contributions of Horace Lane in the consolidation of the public instruction of São Paulo from the Republicans
