  • Chess As a Key to Solving Nabokov's Korol', Dama, Valet
    CHESS AS A KEY TO SOLVING NABOKOV’S KOROL’, DAMA, VALET James Murray Slater A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Radislav Lapushin Madeline Levine Christopher Putney ABSTRACT James Murray Slater: Chess as a Key to Solving Nabokov’s Korol’, dama, valet (Under the direction of Professor Radislav Lapushin) This thesis examines the role of chess in Nabokov’s novel, Korol’, dama, valet , and how the struggle between the narrator and the protagonist, Martha-Marta , can be justified by using chess as a key. The first portion of my analysis is based on the role of the diegetic narrator in an attempt to subvert Martha’s movements toward autonomy. In explaining the narrator’s subversion of Martha, I explore the nature of the protagonists, the movement of the narrative, and the structure and parameters of the novel in relation to it being a figurative game of chess. Furthermore, Martha’s attempts at dominance are examined in connection to the concept of past-reconstruction. I conclude my analysis by ushering in unifying intersections of plot and characterization in Nabokov’s later work. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I. INTRODUCTION……………….……………………………….………1 II.

Letter from the Pastor Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, A number of years ago the Second Vatican Council reminded us: “The Lord Jesus ‘whom the Father consecrated and sent into world’ (John 10:36) makes his whole Mystical Body a sharer in the anointing of the Spirit wherewith he has been anointed. Therefore there is no such thing as a member that has not a share in the mission of the whole Body” (#2 Presbyterorum Ordinis). Here at St. Martha Parish we have committed ourselves to implementing this teaching of the Church. We do this through stewardship and invite everyone to become actively involved by sharing their God- given blessings for the good of all. This Stewardship Guide Book is provided to help you make careful and prayerful decisions about offering your time, talent and treasure in your parish throughout the year. It contains a brief description of each area of ministry along with the name of the contact person from that ministry. This year you will also find our Mass schedule, campus map, and answers to frequently asked questions. Every Catholic has an important role to play in the Body of Christ. How is God calling you to become more engaged in our Stewardship Parish? In Christ, Msgr.

Born in Ireland, when still a boy he arrived in New Zealand in 1862. After his father died at an early age, he acquired a step-father, whom he disliked, with good reason; and in her later years his mother’s mind would fade. From 1868, when he was probably aged 14, until shortly before his death, he was a prospector and miner. Excited by the early Thames mining days, he learnt the skills needed to be a successful prospector, and during the 1870s worked with several mates on the Coromandel field, with some success. After briefly participating in the Te Aroha rush of 1880, he saw from the summit of that mountain the outcrops of the Waihi reefs, and turned his attention to that largely unexplored area. Although there was considerable claim and counter-claim about who first explored the area and who first found gold, Nicholl was the first to discover a payable lode, the famous Martha. After telling his mates of his discovery, they marked out the line of reef and started to develop several claims.
