It contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. Heather Anne Hannah ii Abstract During the nineteenth century, male writers in Britain and the United States of America used female pseudonyms much more frequently than is recognised today. The historically accepted understanding is that nineteenth- century women, not men, used cross-gender pseudonyms, a viewpoint commonly justified on the basis of presumed gender discrimination. However, previous historians and scholars have written very little about the male use of the female pseudonym in men’s authorship of literary genres. Drawing on theories of masculinity and its construction in specific historical contexts, my thesis shows why, between 1800 and 1919, increasing numbers of male writers in Britain and America authored texts under female pseudonyms, categorised by the genres of romantic fiction, juvenile literature, periodical contributions, and poetry. Histories of masculinity offer a context in which to consider how the cultural power of gendered expectations helps make sense of the male use of the female pseudonym. The insight – that male use of the female pseudonym is symptomatic of the limiting strictures of conventionally gendered boundaries in the social, professional and domestic realms – informs my thesis. Furthermore, this understanding enriches my appraisal of the more widely documented female use of the male pseudonym and enables my thorough comparison with male use of the female pseudonym. My thesis presents the first substantive catalogue and survey collating the particulars of men (forty-nine from Britain and forty-one from America) who used a female pseudonym in the nineteenth century. The thesis organises the motives that underpin the male writers’ practice of using a female pseudonym into three broad categories: personal, ideological, and commercial. It teases out these categories into numerous specific motives in order to describe, interpret, and evaluate the complexities of individual cases. Furthermore, it offers a nuanced analysis of the gendered coding of writing practices during the period, and overturns the standard narrative that the use of cross-gender pseudonyms during the nineteenth century was largely the preserve of women. iii Table Of Contents Page DECLARATION .................................................................................................. ii

  • Lapp 1 the Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis
    Lapp 1 The Victorian Pseudonym and Female Agency Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in English in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Anna Lapp The Ohio State University April 2015 Project Advisor: Professor Robyn Warhol, Department of English Lapp 2 Chapter One: The History of the Pseudonym Anonymity disguises information. For authors, disguised or changed names shrouds their circumstance and background. Pseudonyms, or pen names, have been famously used to disguise one’s identity. The word’s origin—pseudṓnymon—means “false name”. The nom de plume allows authors to conduct themselves without judgment attached to their name. Due to an author’s sex, personal livelihood, privacy, or a combination of the three, the pen name achieves agency through its protection. To consider the overall protection of the pseudonym, I will break down the components of a novel’s voice. A text is written by a flesh-and-blood, or actual, author. Second, an implied author or omnipresent figure of agency is present throughout the text. Finally, the narrator relates the story to the readers. The pseudonym offers freedom for the actual author because the author becomes two-fold—the pseudonym and the real person, the implied author and the actual author. The pseudonym can take the place of the implied author by acting as the dominant force of the text without revealing the personal information of the flesh-and-blood author. Carmela Ciuraru, author of Nom de Plume: A (Secret) History of Pseudonyms, claims, “If the authorial persona is a construct, never wholly authentic (now matter how autobiographical the material), then the pseudonymous writer takes this notion to yet another level, inventing a construct of a construct” (xiii-xiv).

Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School December 2019 i Abstract B. H. Roberts presented information to the leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January of 1922 that fundamentally challenged the entire premise of their religious beliefs. New research shows that in addition to church leadership, this information was also presented during the neXt few months to a select group of highly educated Mormon men and women outside of church hierarchy. This group represented many aspects of Mormon belief, different areas of eXpertise, and varying approaches to dealing with challenging information. Their stories create a beautiful tapestry of Mormon life in the transition years from polygamy, frontier life, and resistance to statehood, assimilation, and respectability. A study of the people involved illuminates an important, overlooked, underappreciated, and eXciting period of Mormon history.

  • The Dakota Fairy Tales of L. Frank Baum
    Copyright © 2000 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. The Dakota Fairy Tales of La Frank Baum Mark I. West L, Frank Baum lived in Aberdeen, South Dakota, from Sep- tember 1888 until April 1891. During this period, he ran a store called Baum's Bazaar for a little over a year, and when that enterprise failed, he tried his hand at publishing a weekly newspaper named the Aberdeen Saturday Pioneer. Baum man- aged to keep the paper going until March 1891, but in the end, it, too, proved to be a financial failure. Feeling defeated, Baum left Aberdeen that April and moved to Chicago, where he even- tually achieved fame as a children's author. Even though Baum had little success as an Aberdeen businessman, the experiences he gained while living on the Dakota prairie provided him with material and insights that he would later draw upon in his sto- ries. The literary critics and biographers who have studied Baum are not in complete agreement as to how his Dakota years influenced his writings. Some critics argue that the opening scenes in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900), which Baum places in Kansas, are really set in South Dakota. Michael Patrick Hearn takes this position in The Annotated Wizard ofOz, stat- ing that these scenes "are largely Baum's recollections of the great gray prairie of the Dakota Territory (now South Dakota)."' The historian Nancy Tystad Koupal takes a somewhat different 1. Hearn, Introduction, Notes, and Bibliography to Tbe Annotated Wizard of Oz York: Clarkson N.

  • A University Microfilms International
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Gladstone and the Bank of England: a Study in Mid-Victorian Finance, 1833-1866
    GLADSTONE AND THE BANK OF ENGLAND: A STUDY IN MID-VICTORIAN FINANCE, 1833-1866 Patricia Caernarv en-Smith, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: Denis Paz, Major Professor Adrian Lewis, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Laura Stern, Committee Member Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Caernarven-Smith, Patricia. Gladstone and the Bank of England: A Study in Mid- Victorian Finance, 1833-1866. Master of Arts (History), May 2007, 378 pp., 11 tables, bibliography, 275 titles. The topic of this thesis is the confrontations between William Gladstone and the Bank of England. These confrontations have remained a mystery to authors who noted them, but have generally been ignored by others. This thesis demonstrates that Gladstone’s measures taken against the Bank were reasonable, intelligent, and important for the development of nineteenth-century British government finance. To accomplish this task, this thesis refutes the opinions of three twentieth-century authors who have claimed that many of Gladstone’s measures, as well as his reading, were irrational, ridiculous, and impolitic. My primary sources include the Gladstone Diaries, with special attention to a little-used source, Volume 14, the indexes to the Diaries. The day-to-day Diaries and the indexes show how much Gladstone read about financial matters, and suggest that his actions were based to a large extent upon his reading. In addition, I have used Hansard’s Parliamentary Debates and nineteenth-century periodicals and books on banking and finance to understand the political and economic debates of the time.

I hereby declare that I have written this dissertation by myself, using only literature and sources cited below. V Olomouci 28. května 2012 | Olomouc, 28 May 2012 2 Abstract My Ph.D. dissertation Playing in the Dark and Dirt: Tomboyism and Its Image in Carson McCullers’s The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter and The Member of the Wedding as Novels and Films deals with the phenomenon of tomboyism and the forms it adopts in two novels by the southern writer Carson McCullers, The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter (1940) and The Member of the Wedding (1946), and films and TV programs made from these two novels across the second half of the 20th century. The first part of my work outlines possible theoretical approaches to tomboyism from the perspective of gender (androgyny, feminist criticism, female masculinity, masquerade and gender performance), discusses the issue of the tomboy’s liminal position between childhood and adulthood as well as between masculinity and femininity and introduces the method of intersectional analysis which, combined with queer theory addressing identity categories as fluid, allows me to analyze questions of race, class and sexuality arising from the specific regional setting of McCullers’s work.

    HILDA RICHARDS BESSIE BUNTER AND THE MISSING FORTUNE CHAPTER I A Fright for the Fourth 'RIPPING weather!' 'Gorgeous! ' 'Just the afternoon for taking some snaps!' 'Rather!' 'And for a picnic!' fat Bessie Bunter put in eagerly. 'I say, you know, dud-don't forget the picnic―' There was a laugh from the crowd of merry-looking schoolgirls gathered on the steps of Cliff House School, and Bessie Bunter, the fattest member of the party blinked in indignant surprise. 'Well, what is there to cackle at in that?' she demanded. 'It is a ripping afternoon for a picnic! ' 'Right, Fatima!' agreed Barbara Redfern, the leader of the party. 'And a picnic there shall be, too. But the main object of the outing is to take snaps. That's why I've brought my camera.' As a matter of fact, they all had cameras-except Bessie. Bessie's camera had departed during the winter in exchange for a few shillings to buy tuck. 'Well, what are we waiting for?' the fat one exclaimed impatiently. 'And, I say, where are we going? I hope it's not too far, you know. I'm famished as it is!' There was another laugh at that. Trust Bessie to put her appetite first! The beauties of the afternoon, the thrill of picture-hunting, were considerations which fat Bessie completely ignored. A picnic was in prospect, and a picnic was Bessie's immediate and only ambition. 'We're waiting for Marcelle,' Barbara Redfern explained, and glanced over her shoulder into the school. 'She forgot her camera, and has gone to her study to fetch it.
