Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan GRYPHIUS* SONNETS: STUDIES IN IMAGERY A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Marvin Samuel Schindler, B. A., M. A. The Ohio State University 1965 Approved by Departmentmr of German ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I should like to express my sincere thanks to the following people, whose kind help, criticism, and interest made possible the completion of this dissertation: Professor Hugo Bekker, my adviser, who was brave enough to assume responsibility for the dissertation in midstream, patient enough to spend countless hours of clarifying discussion with me, and kind enough to disagree firmly with me when he thought I was wrong. Professor Walter Naumann, now at the Technische Hochschule in Darmstadt, Germany, who, as my adviser until his departure from this country, furnished the impetus for the dissertation and, with his unique ability to stimulate his students intellectually, guided me well until its completion. To Professor Naumann, and to Professor Oskar Seidlin, I also owe most of the little I have learned about literary criticism and interpretation. To their influence can be traced only the successful parts of this study. Professor Wolfgang Fleischhauer, a good friend, whose criticism and suggestions on matters of word history and development of meaning in Chapters I, III, IV, and V were ii ill especially appreciated, but whose kindness, innate humanity, and general interest in the entire dissertation have been a source of help and self-confidence which cannot be so specifically identified and measured.
