  • Masterarbeit
    MASTERARBEIT Titel der Masterarbeit „Persephone and Hades Revisited: Modern Retellings of the Myth in Young Adult Literature“ verfasst von Olivia Zajkas, BA angestrebter akademischer Grad Master of Arts (MA) Wien, 2015 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 066 844 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Masterstudium Anglophone Literatures and Cultures Betreut von: Assoz. Prof. Mag. Dr. Susanne Reichl, Privatdoz. “The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.” ― Alice Walker “If you’re gonna throw your life away, he’d better have a motorcycle.” ― Lorelai Gilmore Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my family, my parents and siblings, for their unconditional support over the last few years. Without their help I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Susanne Reichl, not only for her encouragement and feedback, but also for understanding my passion for this topic. I am also grateful to Dr. Waldemar Zacharasiewicz, who through his kind words strengthened my decision to apply for a Master’s degree in literature (although he most likely forgot about this). Moreover, I have to acknowledge my partner in crime, the Rory to my Lorelai (or vice versa), who has always been there for me on this journey, Steffi. Thank you for everything, where you lead I will follow. All of this would not have been possible without the vital input, encouragement, and support of my friends Peter, Nura, Tami, Connie, Denise, and Sandra. Last but certainly not least, I have to give credit to all the strong female fictional characters I have encountered so far.

  • Whore Or Hero? Helen of Troy's Agency And
    WHORE OR HERO? HELEN OF TROY’S AGENCY AND RESPONSIBILITY FROM ANTIQUITY TO MODERN YOUNG ADULT FICTION by Alicia Michelle Dixon A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College. Oxford May 2017 Approved by _____________________________________________ Advisor: Dr. Molly Pasco-Pranger _____________________________________________ Reader: Dr. Brad Cook _____________________________________________ Reader: Dr. Steven Skultety © 2017 Alicia Michelle Dixon ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated, in memoriam, to my father, Daniel Dixon. Daddy, I wouldn’t be here without you. You would have sent me to college on the moon, if that was what I wanted, and because of that, you set me up to shoot for the stars. For the past four years, Ole Miss has been exactly where I belong, and much of my work has culminated in this thesis. I know that, if you were here, you would be so proud to own a copy of it, and you would read every word. It may not be my book, but it’s a start. Your pride in me and your devout belief that I can do absolutely anything that I set my mind to have let me believe that nothing is impossible, and your never ending cheer and kindness are what I aspire to be. Thank you for giving me something to live up to. You are missed every day. Love, Alicia iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, and foremost, the highest level of praise and thanks is deserved by my wonderful advisor, Dr. Molly Pasco-Pranger.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Starcrossed (Starcrossed #1) by Josephine Angelini Starcrossed (Starcrossed #1)(3) Josephine Angelini. About six years ago the News Store had expanded its horizons and added Kate’s Cakes onto the back, and since then business had exploded. Kate Rogers was, quite simply, a genius with baked goods. She could take anything and make it into a pie, cake, popover, cookie, or muffin. Even universally loathed vegetables like brussels sprouts and broccoli succumbed to Kate’s wiles and became big hits as croissant fillers. Still in her early thirties, Kate was creative and intelligent. When she’d partnered up with Jerry she revamped the back of the News Store and turned it into a haven for the island’s artists and writers, somehow managing to do it without turning up the snob factor. Kate was careful to make sure that anyone who loved baked goods and real coffee—from suits to poets, working-class townies to corporate raiders—would feel comfortable sitting down at her counter and reading a newspaper. She had a way of making everyone feel welcome. Helen adored her. When Helen got to work the next day, Kate was trying to stock a delivery of flour and sugar. It was pathetic. “Lennie! Thank god you’re early. Do you think you could help me . ?” Kate gestured toward the forty-pound sacks. “I got it. No, don’t tug the corner like that, you’ll hurt your back,” Helen warned, rushing to stop Kate’s ineffectual pulling. “Why didn’t Luis do this for you? Wasn’t he working this morning?” Helen asked, referring to one of the other workers on the schedule.

Take a hike [RED QUEEN] I have a new favorite book of all timesBy AceTake a hike [RED QUEEN] I have a new favorite book of all times! This book is perfections itself. Okay, the cramping curse is lame, but other than that itrsquo;s FLAWLESS. Greek Mythology and I donrsquo;t mix often, yet Irsquo;m thrilled we clicked in this. I adore the writing style and the pacing is well thought out. Loved the fighting/actions and I'm always hard to please there, btw. In short I love everything about this wonderful book. Five Stars Baby!! ;)[ SPOILERS AHEAD ]Starting with [Helen/Lucas] before I gush out about how much I adore these two and ship them so hard right now. Let me start with: part of me loved how much of caveman Lucas was when hersquo;s with Helen, though the feminist part in mehellip; not so much. What drove me into picking up this books is when I heard about how the two protagonist meet and how literally they tried to kill each other (well, mostly Helen, but I didnrsquo;t know that then! lol), I was like holys*** I NEED THIS NOW!?! AND I WAS RIGHT!!!! THIS BOOK ATE MY SOUL!!! THEY BOTH FLY TOGETHER!!!!! HOW CUTE IS THAT!!!? This is way better than Superboy flying Lo around.
