  • Iraqi Literary Response to the US Occupation
    Countering the Sectarian Metanarrative: Iraqi Literary Response to the US Occupation Chad Day Truslow Waynesboro, Virginia B.A. in International Relations & History, Virginia Military Institute, 2008 M.A. in Business Administration, Liberty University, 2014 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of Middle Eastern and South Asian Languages and Cultures University of Virginia December, 2019 1 Abstract Sectarian conflict is a commonly understood concept that has largely shaped US foreign policy approach to the region throughout the modern Middle East. As a result of the conflict between Shia and Sunni militias in Iraq and the nature of Iraqi politics since 2003, many experts have accepted sectarianism as an enduring phenomenon in Iraq and use it as a foundation to understand Iraqi society. This paper problematizes the accepted narrative regarding the relevance of sectarian identity and demonstrates the fallacy of approaching Iraq through an exclusively “sectarian lens” in future foreign policy. This paper begins by exploring the role of the Iraqi intellectuals in the twentieth century and how political ideologies influenced and replaced traditional forms of identity. The paper then examines the common themes used by mid-twentieth century Iraqi literati to promote national unity and a sense of Iraqi identity that championed the nation’s heterogeneity. The paper then surveys the Iraqi literary response to the 2003 invasion in order to explain how some of the most popular Iraqi writers represent sectarianism in their works. The literary response to the US invasion and occupation provides a counter- narrative to western viewpoints and reveals the reality of the war from the Iraqi perspective.

I understand Dean Koontz's interest in experimenting with different story telling formats and loo I like the Odd Thomas character and when I saw this graphic novel was intrigued to see how they approached the story.

The characters were so far removed from their novel counterparts that Odd was barely more than a boy who walked from scene to scene just to tie the story together and for some reason Sto I don't really have much good to say about this graphic novel. Ian Edginton. It doesn't end like Erin Hunter's graphic books where the books are serialized. The characters were so far removed from their novel counterparts that Odd was barely more than a boy who walked from scene to scene just to tie the story together and for some reason Stormy had been turned into an angry gun- toting maniac. I haven't ever read any Dean Koontz novels before, and I have to say that this does not give me the desire to do so. It was awful. Garth Ennis and Jamie Delano.

  • The Parable of the Prodigal Son in the Fiction of Elizabeth Gaskell
    THE PARABLE OF THE PRODIGAL SON IN THE FICTION OF ELIZABETH GASKELL Tatsuhiro OHNO A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Master of Letters Department of English Literature College of Arts and Law Graduate School University of Birmingham September 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

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. ii ABSTRACT The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse Elizabeth Gaskell’s three prodigal short stories—“Lizzie Leigh” (1850), “The Crooked Branch” (1859), and “Crowley Castle” (1863)—with reference to her major works in terms of the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son representing the principal Christian creed of the Plan of Sal- vation. The investigation into the three short stories in addition to her major works discloses the following three main features. First, the recurrent appearance of the Prodigal Son motif—committing sin, repentance, and forgiveness—in her characters’ lives and actions. Second, Gaskell’s change of depicting the prodigal by gradually refraining from inserting hints for its salvation—there are many hints in the first short story, almost none in the second, and few in the third.

  • The Dystopian World of Blade Runner: an Ecofeminist Perspective
    Trumpeter (1997) ISSN: 0832-6193 The Dystopian World of Blade Runner: An Ecofeminist Perspective Mary Jenkins University of Tasmania The Dystopian World of Blade Runner: An Ecofeminist Perspective 2 MARY JENKINS is in the Department of Geography and Envi- ronmental Studies at the University of Tasmania, Hobart, Aus- tralia. The real act of discovery consists not in finding new lands but in seeing with new eyes. - Marcel Proust The science fiction film, Blade Runner, directed by Ridley Scott, first released in 1982 and loosely based on Philip K. Dick's novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?,1 has continued to fascinate film viewers, theorists and critics for more than fifteen years. Writings include Judith B. Kerman's Retrofitting Blade Runner, a collection of academic essays;2 Paul M. Sammon's book on the making of the various versions of the film;3 and an extensive network of publications are available via the World-Wide Web.4 A student colleague has just seen the film for the eighteenth time. The "Director's Cut", released in 1992, is a more satisfying version of the film than earlier releases, mainly because narration is excluded, more mythological ambiguity is introduced (with the inclusion of a scene of a unicorn running through a forest), and the finalé of an escape into nature is removed. In the context of Blade Runner's dystopia such an ending is incredible; for science fiction to succeed there needs to be plausibility within speculation. Since the Director's Cut, Blade Runner seems to have had a phoenix-like resur- gence.
