Alice in Wonderland: a Summary of Selected Criticism and an Explication
ALICE IN WONDERLAND: A SUMMARY OF SELECTED CRITICISM AND AN EXPLICATION A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTI~ENT OF ENGLISH AND THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE KANSAS STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE OF EMPORIA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS By SHARON DOUGHERTY July, 1971 Approved for the Major Department Approved ~V<J Council 316043 q PREFACE There are two types of people whc read Alice in Wonderland, by far the larger group being those who relegate Lewis Carroll's book to their "best loved" list, putting it in their book shelf next to the works of Edna St. Vincent Millay and ten years installments of Reader's Digest Books of the Month. Then there are the Carroll critics. These readers do not "love" Alice in Wonderland; they do not cherish it or condescend its contents. Instead they study the book as a serious work of art worthy of serious consider ation. I wish to emphasize that I agree with the second group of readers. The purpose of this thesis is to achieve an accurate and, as far as possible, an objective study of Alice in Wonderland by an explication which takes into account various critical vie\~oints. Chapter one is essentially biographical. In it I consider four aspects of Carroll's personality which are pertinent in giving the reader clues to the reading of Alice. These four aspects of his personality are his sense of humor, his rage for order, his logical mind, and his fondness for little girls. Each of these is important to Alice in Wonderland in that each contributes to an under standing of the peculiar combination of e,lements found in the book. -

Reincarnations of Neo-Orientalism: Islam and Its Representations in Post-9/11 Literature a Dissertation Presented to the Faculty
Reincarnations of Neo-Orientalism: Islam and its Representations in Post-9/11 Literature A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Priyadarshini Gupta August 2017 © 2017 Priyadarshini Gupta. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Reincarnations of Neo-Orientalism: Islam and its Representations in Post-9/11 Literature by PRIYADARSHINI GUPTA has been approved for the Department of English and the College of Arts and Sciences by Ghirmai Negash Professor of English Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT GUPTA, PRIYADARSHINI, Ph.D., August 2017, English Reincarnations of Orientalism: Islam and its Representations in Post-9/11 Literature Director of Dissertation: Ghirmai Negash This dissertation analyzes the responses to the clash of civilizations between Islam and the West through literary narratives. Using texts that discuss “strangers” and “natives” in post-9/11 literature, it critiques, while adding new insights, to the debate of the paradigmatic concept of Neo- Orientalism. Neo-Orientalism, a derogatory way of describing incarnations to Orientalist thinking after 9/11, reinforces Islam as a subculture in modern societies. In the war of ideas between the putative East and the so- called West, Neo-Orientalism revives the legacy of American and European colonialism on Asian and African countries through relentless attacks on Islamic identity and integrity. It shows how xenophobia, racial discrimination, and violence against Muslims is rationalized in Western societies. In my research, I discuss how post-9/11 narratives on Islam are addressing the estrangement of the Muslim world by either reiterating Oriental representations of Islam as a demonic culture or by adapting to the demands of Neo- Orientalism by embracing Islam in an Islamophobic world. -
Humour in Terry Pratchett's Discworld Series - Application of Psychological and Linguistic Theories of Humour
Humour in Terry Pratchett's Discworld Series - Application of Psychological and Linguistic Theories of Humour Raisa Aromaa University of Tampere School of Language, Translation and Literary Studies English Philology Pro Gradu Thesis March 2011 Tampereen yliopisto Englantilainen filologia Kieli-, käännös- ja kirjallisuustieteiden yksikkö AROMAA, RAISA: Humour in Terry Pratchett's Discworld Series - Application of Psychological and Linguistic Theories of Humour Pro gradu -tutkielma, 109 sivua + liite (2 sivua) Kevät 2011 Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa käsitellään huumoria Terry Pratchettin Discworld-romaaneissa. Tutkielmassa pyritään vastaamaan seuraaviin tutkimusongelmiin: mikä tekee kirjoista kerätyt esimerkit hauskoiksi, miksi jotkin esimerkit ovat hauskempia kuin toiset, mitä tekniikoita huumorin luomiseen on käytetty, ovatko jotkin tekniikat yleisempiä kuin muut sekä kuinka hyvin nykyiset huumoriteoriat ovat sovellettavissa tutkimusaineistoon ja ovatko kyseiset teoriat riittäviä. Tutkielma koostuu teoriaosuudesta sekä analyysiosuudesta. Huumoriteorioista esitellään kolme suurinta psykologista teoriaryhmää (ylemmyys-, huojennus- ja inkongruenssiteoriat) sekä kaksi tunnetuinta lingvististä huumoriteoriaa (Semantic Script Theory of Humour ja General Theory of Verbal Humour). Tutkimusaineisto sisältää 521 esimerkkiä, jotka on kerätty 25 ensimmäisestä Discworld-romaanista. Aineistoa analysoidaan teoriaosuudessa esiteltävien psykologisten sekä lingvististen huumoriteorioiden avulla, ja teorioihin pohjautuvia hypoteeseja testataan löydöksillä. -

VANDERBILT JOURNAL OF ENTERTAINMENT AND TECHNOLOGY LAW VOLUME 11 FALL2008 NUMBER 1 Fantasy Crime: The Role of Criminal Law in Virtual Worlds Susan W Brenner* ABSTRACT This Article analyzes activity in virtual worlds that would constitute crime if they were committed in the real world. It reviews the evolution of virtual worlds like Second Life and notes research which indicates that more and more of our lives will move into this realm. The Article then analyzes the criminalizationof virtual conduct that inflicts "harm" in the real world and virtual conduct that only inflicts "harm" in the virtual world. It explains that the first category qualifies as cybercrime and can be prosecuted under existing law. Finally, it analyzes the necessity and propriety of criminalizing the second category of conduct, both now and in the future.
