"Jem told me I was being a girl, that girls always imagined things" : female narrative voice and the young adult literary canon, 2018

Identifier: b7877197
Introduction [excerpt]
The use of the first person in narrative fiction indicates agency -- meaning that the character is free to tell their story in the form that they would like. This is what makes this form of storytelling unique; it presents an intimacy with characters that third-person does not often give. Novels that are geared towards young adults and children do not give female characters this form of narrative agency. Either the male protagonist serves as narrator, or the novel is told from the...

Materialism, commercials and rhetoric : the production of superficial happiness, 2014
Item — Call number MU Thesis Pla
Identifier: b7607921
Introduction [excerpt]
An existential shift appears to be occurring, one that moves people away from melancholia in search of "authentic" happiness. Yet, few of us actually achieve genuine happiness and settle for superficiality that we either accept or fallaciously believe is true happiness (Wilson 5). The purpose of this paper is to explore the various rhetorical figures found in adverstisements as the vehicle to piety (the tenor), which, in turn, results in an action/behavior. This is important to...

Identifier: b7930274
Introduction [excerpt]
Midnight is the first fifty pages of what is to be a novel over four times its current length. As the first quarter of the book, what was attempted in this thesis was to create a solid foundation for which the rest of the novel could be built atop without great concern about the novel's premise, voice, and direction. As a creative endeavor, it represents the culmination of six months of drafting and rewrites, as first envisioned in the short story ...

Oranges, lemons, and the decline of the traditional mother figure in George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, 2012

Identifier: b5596203
Abstract
In my thesis, I examine the use of the British nursery rhyme, "Oranges and Lemons," in the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four in relation to the decline of the "traditional" mother figure in Oceania. George Orwell felt that if women continued to work after World War II, then the traditional family would be destroyed and children would not have the moral upbringing that only a mother could provide. In the fascist society of Oceania, good,...

Identifier: b7607923
Introduction [excerpt]
Elizabeth Bowen's World War II novel, The Heat of the Day, is one of the most nuanced and engaging works to emerge from the bombs and rubble of the Blitz. From September of 1940 through May of 1941 Great Britain faced nightly air raids, resulting in thousands of tons of explosives dropped, a million damaged or destroyed homes, and over a hundred thousand civilian casualties. While the majority of the damage was contained to these nine months, V1 and V2...
