  • Illusion and Reality in the Fiction of Iris Murdoch: a Study of the Black Prince, the Sea, the Sea and the Good Apprentice
    ILLUSION AND REALITY IN THE FICTION OF IRIS MURDOCH: A STUDY OF THE BLACK PRINCE, THE SEA, THE SEA AND THE GOOD APPRENTICE by REBECCA MODEN A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY (Mode B) Department of English School of English, Drama and American and Canadian Studies University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis considers how Iris Murdoch radically reconceptualises the possibilities of realism through her interrogation of the relationship between life and art. Her awareness of the unreality of realist conventions leads her to seek new forms of expression, resulting in daring experimentation with form and language, exploration of the relationship between author and character, and foregrounding of the artificiality of the text. She exposes the limitations of language, thereby involving herself with issues associated with the postmodern aesthetic. The Black Prince is an artistic manifesto in which Murdoch repeatedly destroys the illusion of the reality of the text in her attempts to make language communicate truth. Whereas The Black Prince sees Murdoch contemplating Hamlet, The Sea, The Sea meditates on The Tempest, as Murdoch returns to Shakespeare in order to examine the relationship between life and art.

  • Peter J. Conradi IRIS MURDOCH: the SAINT and the ARTIST New York: St
    The audience for which Walkiewicz has written is difficult to identify. A student is not apt to grasp the modest directive when asked to consider the relationship of the famous essays to "the ontogeny of Barth's corpus" and to view that relationship as "metaphoric rather than strictly exegetic or completely correlative." Instructed that ontogeny recapitulating cosmogeny is "of course" (!) the governing principle of Finnegans Wake, even professors of literature will find themselves daunted. What audience that requires those goosy headlines is properly addressed in such a manner? The irony is that Walkiewicz deserves an audience for this otherwise careful and generally successful book. Peter J. Conradi IRIS MURDOCH: THE SAINT AND THE ARTIST New York: St. Martin's Press, 1986. Pp. xvi + 304 Reviewed by Amin Malak With the publication of her twenty-second novel, The Good Apprentice, Iris Murdoch proves once again to her critics and admirers alike that hers are a talent and an energy that deserve close and alert scrutiny. Peter Conradi's Iris Murdoch: The Saint and the Artist represents a welcome addition to the now established and steadily growing Murdoch criticism. Interest­ ingly, Conradi's book combines mainstream Murdoch scholarship, which usually follows a predictable pattern of examining her novels within the context of her critical and philosophical pronouncements, with original insights based on sympathetic, clear-headed reading of Mur­ doch's fiction. Avoiding a chronological survey of Murdoch's work, Conradi divides his book into three parts based on three rather vaguely defined conceptual perspectives. The first, entitled "A Kind of Moral Psychology," deals with Under the Net, An Accidental Man, A Severed Head, Bruno's Dream.

  • Self-Actualization on Women's Pilgrimage to Goodness in The
    International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 5, No. 6(1); May 2014 Self-actualization on Women’s Pilgrimage to Goodness in the Good Apprentice XU Ming-ying PhD Associate Professor School of Foreign Languages Dalian University of Technology Dalian, China FU Xiao-na PhD Professor College of Comprehensive Foundation Studies Liaoning University Shenyang, China Abstract The paper reveals the difficulty in the formation of female self by portraying female characters’ personal growth through increased awareness of themselves and the relationship with others in The Good Apprentice. Murdoch illustrates that blind hatred and revenge as well as the lies all hinder women from the integration of female self and from reaching the state of Goodness. Meanwhile, Murdoch endows the female character with an unusual trait that is seldom found in her other female characters: the consideration of others’ welfare and attention to others’ life. This is just what Murdoch advances in her philosophy as the way to achieve goodness. Apart from the integration of female selfhood, Murdoch has also explores how women could achieve happiness and reach the state of goodness in her later period to a greater extent than in her early period. While Murdoch conveys her philosophical thoughts in her novels, her creation of characters and plots in turn enriches and deepens her philosophy. The paper focuses on the reconstruction of female selfhood through Murdoch’s elaboration of the multiple ways that the women use to integrate their female self by actualizing themselves on their way to Goodness in the Good Apprentice. Keywords: Iris Murdoch; The Good Apprentice; Selfhood; goodness Murdoch deepens her exploration of the reconstruction of female selfhood in her later novels with the development of the society and the advancement of women’s rights though she holds the consistent attitudes to women’s liberation and the role of female characters in her fiction.

  • Detection of Longitudinal Development of Dementia in Literary Writing
    Detection of Longitudinal Development of Dementia in Literary Writing A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Torri E. Raines May 2018 © 2018 Torri E. Raines. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Detection of Longitudinal Development of Dementia in Literary Writing by TORRI E. RAINES has been approved for the Department of Linguistics and the College of Arts and Sciences by David Bell Associate Professor of the Department of Linguistics Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT RAINES, TORRI E., M.A., May 2018, Linguistics Detection of Longitudinal Development of Dementia in Literary Writing Director of Thesis: David Bell Past studies have suggested that the progression of dementia, especially Alzheimer’s disease, can be detected in the writing of literary authors through analysis of their lexical diversity patterns. However, those studies have used oversimplified measures and vague definitions of lexical diversity. This study uses a multi-faceted, computationally operationalized model of lexical diversity innovated by Scott Jarvis to analyze a total of 129 novels by five authors (three with dementia and two without), with the purpose of identifying the lexical characteristics of dementia in literary writing. A total of 22 novels by two authors with suicidal depression were also analyzed in order to determine whether this condition also leads to changes in authors’ lexical diversity patterns. Analyses were conducted with six individual lexical diversity measures and two supplementary lexicosyntactic measures. Results suggest that dementia as well as the effects of healthy aging manifest in different aspects of lexical diversity for different authors, and that this model of lexical diversity is a robust tool for detecting lexical decay indicative of dementia.

  • The Booker: Prized in Public Libraries?
    The Booker: Prized in Public Libraries? An investigation into the attitudes of public librarians towards the Man Booker Prize for Fiction. A study submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Librarianship at The University of Sheffield by Karl Hemsley September 2003 1 Acknowledgements I owe thanks, first of all, to the fifteen librarians who so kindly gave of their time to be interviewed for this work. They all paid me the compliment of taking my questions seriously and providing thoughtful replies. I would also like to thank Lord Baker of Dorking, Mariella Frostrup, Simon Jenkins and Russell Celyn Jones, four former judges of the Booker Prize, who replied to emails that I sent rather late in the day. It was very kind of them to take the trouble to do this. I am very grateful to my supervisor, Professor Bob Usherwood, for his encouragement and advice, which have helped to make doing this piece of work an enjoyable experience, and much less daunting than it would otherwise have been. Finally, thanks to Bess for the loan of the digital recorder and helping this Luddite by putting the interviews onto disk. I still haven’t worked out where the cassettes go. 2 Abstract This report examines the attitude of a selection of public librarians towards the Man Booker Prize for Fiction. Fifteen librarians, from five library authorities in the north of England, were interviewed, in order to ascertain their opinions regarding the Booker and its place in public libraries. The report also considers the views of commentators on the Booker and literature concerning fiction provision in public libraries.
