  • STEINBECK with HIS NOVEL the GRAPES of WRATH: a CRITICAL OUTLOOK Dr
    VEDA’S JOURNAL OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE (JOELL) Vol.5 Issue 4 An International Peer Reviewed Journal 2018 http://www.joell.in RESEARCH ARTICLE STEINBECK WITH HIS NOVEL THE GRAPES OF WRATH: A CRITICAL OUTLOOK Dr. Ch. Anuradha (Senior Lecturer in English, K.B. N. College, Vijayawada.) ABSTRACT Every age has its representative writer, whose career follows its major interests, whose voice is its voice. In him we can see the moods, if not the actual events of his time, most clearly reflected and its strongest drives most forcefully crystallized. The two basic impulses of the 1930s towards escape and toward social consciousness found their sharpest expression in the writing of John Steinbeck, whose work represents more faithfully than any of his contemporaries the temperament of an angry decade. The greatest literary event of the year 1939 was the publication of his classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. The present article is a critical analysis of John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath Keywords: Inhumanity, Labouring Class, Communism, Agricultural Depression. Author(s) retain the copyright of this article Copyright © 2018 VEDA Publications Author(s) agree that this article remains permanently open access under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License 4.0 International License . John Steinbeck is one of the few American had appeared with a sure and subtle sense for writers who can be discussed in relation to the past literary effect, a story-teller worthy to be compared as well as the present. He might have been the last to Chekov or Anatole France for his skill in shaping up writer of a generation for whom being an American the stuff of human lives in forms that delight the seemed in itself a special thing and being an mind and imagination”, (1957: 80) and that was John American an extraordinary thing.

  • Telling Our Testing Stories – Handout
    Telling our testing stories – handout Isabel Evans, May 2016 Abstract Our messages are not heard or are misinterpreted. Sometimes we do not hear the messages other people need to tell us. Our natural abilities at storytelling and at appreciating the stories others tell us can be crushed under the weight of the ways we are expected to plan, report and communicate about testing and quality. We have a natural ability to tell stories and a natural delight in narrative, which help us communicate about testing and quality to others in our organisations. We look at why and how we tell stories in a way that is appealing to our audience. That means thinking about the role of oral, written and pictorial representations of testing stories, using the analogies of novels, short stories, picture books, poems and songs. You need a variety of story formats to work best for your testing messages and you need to know how to adapt your testing stories to your audience. We also examine how we can better listen to other people’s stories about their parts of the project, about quality and about testing, and how we need to adapt our listening style to different storytellers when we are the audience. Purpose of this handout This handout provides the slides plus notes so that you can follow up the presentation with further investigation and practice after the event. Story telling takes practice – whether words, music, painting, songs, embroideries – all need practice to understand how to design, make and execute the story. Listening also improves with practice.

  • Gabriela Mistral. the Teaching Journey of a Poet
    Gabriela Mistral. The Teaching Journey of a Poet. by Adrienne Joyce Wood Royo A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requerements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages (Spanish-American Literature) Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Professor María A. Salgado Reader: Professor Glynis S. Cowell Reader: Professor Fred M. Clark Reader: Professor Frank A. Domínguez Reader: Professor Ed Neal © 2007 Adrienne Joyce Wood Royo ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Adrienne Joyce Wood Royo Gabriela Mistral. The Teaching Journey of a Poet (Under the direction of María A. Salgado) Gabriela Mistral, the first Spanish-American Nobel Laureate, is best known as a poet and prose writer; even though it is widely recognized that her writings are didactic in nature. Little has been written concerning her ideas and how she conveyed them through her writings. This dissertation seeks to open a space that will respond to a need for a consideration of her contributions as a teacher who endeavored to enrich the lives of women and those who had limited educational opportunities. Emphasis is placed on her collaboration with the Mexican poet and Secretary of Education José Vasconcelos, in Mexico’s modernization of its educational system, in particular on behalf of women and the rural areas. In chapter 1, I provide the introductory information with “Some Thoughts on Gabriela Mistral and Education.” In chapter 2, Gabriela Mistral’s educational philosophy, in the light of her career as an author and a teacher, briefly sketching her familial and education background, is discussed.

  • Spanish American Reception of Rabindranath Tagore
    REVISTA DE LENGUAS MODERNAS, N.° 25, 2016 / 81-99 / ISSN: 1659-1933 Exploring a South-South Dialogue: Spanish American Reception of Rabindranath Tagore NILANJANA BHATTACHARYA Depto. de Inglés y Otras Lenguas Modernas Europeas Instituto de Lenguas, Literatura y Cultura Visva-Bharati, Santiniketan, India Resumen Este artículo se concentra en la recepción de Rabindranath Tagore en algunos países de América Latina. En la historia de este continente, los primeros años del siglo XX fueron cruciales, porque muchos países de América Latina estaban esforzándose por destruir el control de Europa y establecer una identidad propia. Sin embargo, era difícil definir “lo propio” en una sociedad tan múltiple y multirracial. En un momento tan complejo de la historia, Tagore personificaba una alternativa para algunos autores de América Latina. Él era como un representante del “tercer mundo” que había ganado el reconocimiento de Europa, de los colonizadores; por tal motivo, su poder/sabiduría era tan fuerte como el de los británicos. Este artículo, dividido en tres partes, busca primero explorar la historia del contacto directo entre el poeta hindú y algunos escritores latinoamerica- nos; segundo, analizar varias traducciones de las obras de Tagore, hechas por latinoamericanos; y, finalmente, discutir unos ensayos y textos críticos realizados por estudiosos de América Latina sobre Tagore. El artículo se centra en Victoria Ocampo (1890-1979), la única autora del mundo hispano con quien Tagore tenía un contacto directo, y también en poetas de nombre mundial como Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) y Pablo Neruda (1904-1973), para explicar cómo ellos recibieron a Tagore. Palabras claves: Rabindranath Tagore, literatura de América Latina, Victoria Ocampo, Gabriela Mistral, Pablo Neruda, Octavio Paz, estudios de traducción, estudios de recepción, literatura comparada Recepción: 7-06-16 Aceptación: 29-06-16 82 REVISTA DE LENGUAS MODERNAS, N.° 25, 2016 / 81-99 / ISSN: 1659-1933 Abstract This article concentrates on Rabindranath’s reception in a few Latin American countries.

Feeling His hand in the darkness, I cradle the babe that I have found. • 162 recordings are captured in Latin America between 1958 and 1961 by F.

DISCURSIVE OPPOSITION TO SYMBOLIC VIOLENCE IN THE NOBEL LECTURES OF LATIN AMERICAN LAUREATES A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Bachelors of Arts with Honors in Hispanic Studies from The College of William and Mary by Olga Grosh Accepted for ___________________________________ (Honors, High Honors, Highest Honors) ________________________________________ Teresa V.

Konefal Williamsburg, VA April 29, 2008 i ABSTRACT This thesis examines the Nobel lectures of Peace and Literature Prize laureates Pablo Neruda, Gabriel García Márquez and Rigoberta Menchú. I argue that the lectures oppose Western and Latin American symbolic violence against Latin America’s attempts at social change. Moreover, I propose that the lectures’ power comes from the very fact that they are important cultural products that provide a space within which social relations may be presented and negotiated.

  • Exhibition Text by Gracia Haby
    Dear Camila, You are writing to me from Kosovo, from another world, far from mine. Writing to me between your summer school studies of ‘Protest, Imagery and Art: Feminist Politics and Practice in Post-Socialist and Post-War Kosovo’ and ‘Spatial Research: Rights, Data, Maps’. Sending me a “brain dump”[i]; a brain dump yet fully fleshed out, still mutating, still warm; from Prishtina, courtesy of sketchy internet access. Extended from The Center of Contemporary Art Prishtina, where you are, to me, in Melbourne, an invitation to look at a preview of your new work, also still forming; new work for a new show at C3. New work addressing forms of repetition. And magnetic forces. And tethered to Chile, where your “father was tortured and exiled during the Pinochet regime”. Before me on the screen, my own spatial map comprised of memories and thoughts bristles and grows the required mountains and oceans, filling in the large black circles before my eyes. You are “talking about Chile” and the “decay of knowledge”; I have so much to learn. You are a world away. And Chile too. The map is vast; I grow tiny. And this of course is what your work will offer people in the gallery: a chance to borrow your eyes and see something anew or perhaps for the first time. It is for such transformation that I head to galleries and performances, and fall into books and films. To grow. To grow through the act of seeing something from another standing. Don’t we all? These are my ‘magnetic forces’, my means of “disseminating information”.
