L'infinito. Sempre caro mi fu quest'ermo colle, e questa siepe, che da tanta parte deH'ultimo orizzonte il guardo eselude. Ma sedendo e mirando, interminati spazi di la da quella, e sovrumani silenzi, e profondissima quiete io nel pensier mi fingo, ove per poco il cor non si spaura. E come il vento odo stormir tra queste piante, io quello infinito silenzio a questa voce vo comparando: e mi sovvien l'eterno, e le morte stagioni, e la presente e viva, e il suon di lei. Cosi tra questa immensitá s'annega il pensier mió: e il naufragar m'é dolce in questo mare. Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837). 3 Tesis doctoral de la Universidad de Alicante.

I am grateful for all the encouragement, help and ideas he gave me throughout the writing. He was the one who helped me to figure out the subject of my work which I am especially thankful for as it has been such a pleasure working on it! Secondly, I want to thank my boyfriend Patrick who shared enthusiasm for my subject, inspired me, and always encouraged me to keep up even when my mood was down. Also my friend Sarah who gave me a feedback on my thesis was a very big help and I am grateful. A special thank you goes to my parents who always believed in me and supported me. Thanks to all the teachers and professors who provided me with the necessary baggage of knowledge which I will now proudly carry through life. iii Foreword In my previous research paper I wrote about film discourse, thus, this time I wanted to continue with it but have something new, some kind of challenge which would interest me.

  • The Tragedy of Isabel Archer in the Portrait of a Lady 0 Frgs
    UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DO RIO GRANDE DO SUL , INSTITUTO DE LETRAS 叫り CURSO DE P◇S-GRADUAcAO EM LETRAS The Tragedy of Isabel Archer in The Portrait of a Lady ROSLIA A. NEUMANN GARCIA Disserta9ao apresentada a Banca Examinadora como exig6ncia parcial para a obten9ao do grau de Mestre em Letras: Literatura Anglo-americana. Profa. Dra. RITA TEREZINT-JA SCHMIDT ORIENTADORA Porto Alegre, setembrQ de 1994 ノ 0 FRGs ~Setorial de Ciencias Sociais eHlユ11地ldd鼻d" ABSTRACT The importance of classical tragedy, and Greek art in general, has been analyzed in itself and in relation to many works which were produced throughout the history of literature. The idea of "modern tragedy" is important in this sense, since it will explain the transportation of elements of Greek tragedy to literary works of diverse historical periods, with the necessary and natural transformation tragedy went through due to the differences of time, place, culture, etc. In any case, the long-lasting influence of this ancient form of art is a source of a great number of studies The Portrait of a Lady, by Henry James, published in 1881, is a modern novel which will be analyzed in this dissertation as having a tragic view of life. This can be seen through the actions of the principal character and in the turn of events which occur. The modern elements of tragedy present in the novel will be related to the classical ones to analyze the dilemma the heroine, Isabel Archer, faces, and to describe the ambiguity and contradictions this heroine deals with in judging and choosing the action she will take The necessity to organize the narrative patterns which indicated the tragic view in James' novel, led to a brief review of some ideas taken from semiotics, specifically those connected to the study of the polarity of signs in language.

  • 619 the Constant, the Variable, and the Bad Wolf in Lost and Doctor
    PREVIOUSLY ON The Constant, the Variable, and the Bad Wolf in Lost and Doctor Who Kristine Larsen Today’s science fiction television audience comprehends the basic science behind time travel and parallel universes thanks to the popular writings (and television documentaries) of scientists such as Stephen Hawking, Brian Greene, and Michio Kaku. In response, the writers of such series as Doctor Who and Lost use this science in a fairly consistent way, keeping their time travel as “realistic” as possible while at the same time entertaining their loyal yet discriminating audiences. The two series certainly differ in what defines consistency in time travel, and what liberties may be taken with these rules within the canon of the series. However, each series has a human wildcard, a character who appears to bend or supersede the rules: Rose Tyler (companion to the Ninth and Tenth Doctors) and Desmond David Hume (named for the 18th century philosopher) respectively. While these variables are able to move between timelines and even parallel universes with an ease inaccessible to fellow characters, they must rely upon constants (in the form of other characters, items, and actions) in order to remain grounded within the dizzying world of time travel. This essay will explore the intersections between science and science fiction in the respective travels of Desmond, Rose, and their accompanying characters, focusing on the skillful navigation of the series writers and viewers through the various paradoxes scientists warn are inherent in any attempt to change the past within the confines of a single universe. The basis for our current scientific understanding of time travel is the work of Albert Einstein, whose 1915 General Theory of Relativity demonstrated that what we experience as the force of gravity is actually the warping of four-dimensional space-time by mass and energy.
