  • WINNIE VERLOC and HEROISM in the SECRET AGENT THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Parti
    7w WINNIE VERLOC AND HEROISM IN THE SECRET AGENT THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts By Cynthia Joy Henderson, B.A. Denton, TX May, 1993 Henderson, Cynthia Joy. Winnie Verloc and Heroism in The Secret Agent. Master of Arts (English), May 1993, 77 pp., bibliography, 65 titles. Winnie Verloc's role in The Secret Agent has received little initial critical attention. However, this character emerges as Conrad's hero in this novel because she is an exception to what afflicts the other characters: institutionalism. In the first chapter, I discuss the effect of institutions on the characters in the novel as well as on London, and how both the characters and the city lack hope and humanity. Chapter II is an analysis of Winnie's character, concentrating on her philosophy that "life doesn't stand much looking into," and how this view, coupled with her disturbing experience of having looked into the "abyss," makes Winnie heroic in her affirmative existentialism. Chapters III and IV broaden the focus, comparing Winnie to Conrad's other protagonists and to his other female characters. TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION . - - - - - - - 1 CHAPTER I THE PLAYERS AND THEIR SETTING . 5 CHAPTER II WINNIE . .......... 32 CHAPTER III WINNIE AMONG CONRAD'S MEN AND WOMEN . 60 CHAPTER IV MADNESS AND DESPAIR . 71 WORKS CITED . ... 76 WORKS CONSULTED . ...... 79 iii INTRODUCTION The Secret Agent, although primarily approached by the critics as a political novel, is also a social and a domestic drama played out in the back parlour of a secret agent's pornography shop, and on the dreary streets of London.

Critical about coming back an talking about how it changed us, do you think that’s a bad thing? “Short-term groups are also unable to do effective evangelism” because of cultural and language barriers, is this true? Should we be evangelizing? “Third-world people do not need more rich Christians coming to paint their church and make them feel inadequate.” How does that make you feel? “They do need more humble people willing to share in their lives and sacrifices.” How can we be humble? How can we enter into this solidarity of their lives and sacrifices? “…stop thinking about short-term missions as a service to perform and start thinking of them as a responsibility to learn.” How can we do this? Lets save the discussion about the changes after we’re done for later this week.

  • A Study of Illocutionary Acts in Heroes Series
    A STUDY OF ILLOCUTIONARY ACTS IN HEROES SERIES Achmad Nurdiansyah English Department, Faculty of Languages and Arts, State University of Surabaya Email:[email protected] Abstrak Sewaktu menyaksikan sebuah film atau serial televisi, orang-orang secara tak sadar mengamati sebuah aktivitas sosial berupa komunikasi antar para pemeran. Dengan meneliti sebuah serial televisi Amerika berjudul Heroes, peneliti berusaha mengadakan studi tentang tipe-tipe tindak tutur ilokusi beserta fungsi sosial dalam komunikasi melalui dialog di serial tersebut. Untuk mengidentifikasi tipe-tipe dan subtipe tindak tutur ilokusi dalam dialog, beberapa teori yang dicetuskan oleh Searle dalam Yule (1996) dan Bach & Harnish (1982) digunakan untuk penelitian ini, sementara teori fungsi sosial dalam tindak tutur ilokusi yang digagas oleh Leech (1983) digunakan sebagai landasan untuk mengidentifikasi fungsi sosial dari tipe-tipe tindak tutur ilokusi. Penelitian ini juga berusaha membuktikan bahwa tindak tutur representatif merupakan tipe ilokusi paling dominan dalam sebuah serial sebagaimana dalam sebuah film, serta mencermati pengaruhnya terhadap cerita di serial ini. Hasil pertama dari penelitian ini mendapati bahwa kelima tipe tindak tutur ilokusi ditemukan dalam naskah serial Heroes dengan 6351 temuan yang teridentifikasi sebagai ungkapan tindak tutur ilokusi, dengan kelima tipe tersebut adalah komisif, deklarasi, direktif, ekspresif dan representatif. Kedua, peran tindak tutur ilokusi sebagai fungsi sosial dalam serial ini dipengaruhi oleh gaya

  • Super Who? Super You! Week Two Day Five: Quick on the Draw!
    Super Who? Super You! Week Two Day Five: Quick on the Draw! A great resource for kids and teachers for this section is: So, You Want to Be a Comic Book Artist?: The Ultimate Guide on How to Break ... By Philip Amara Think of the comics you enjoy. What is it you enjoy about them? Getting started with comics is just about finding something to draw with and something to draw on. Challenge students into telling a story in three to six panels. As they grow more comfortable with these single page strips they can start moving on to longer stories. One way to start is by trying to depict something that happened to you today in your own life. At home, at school, on the bus. Just keep it short. Jot down a few ideas, a few lines. Don’t get caught up thinking there are any right or wrong ways to making a comic because there aren’t. Simply tell a story, draw it in pictures, and place it in a sequence. Because much of the comic book story can be told through the characters’ expressions and body language, your characters’ conversations can be brief and to the point. Since you don’t need a lot of it, the dialogue should be interesting, tell you something about the characters, and move the plot forward. You can use sound effects (also called onomatopoeia) to help tell your story and what’s happening too. Think about how to use your characters to best tell the story. Using one of your completed scripts or story prompts, draw a rough, quick sketch to correspond with each panel in your script.
