OTHER WORLDLY GLIMPSES By Jordan Payeur An Honors Project Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Honors in The Department of English The School of Arts and Sciences Rhode Island College 2020 2 Author’s Note For my honors project, I decided to develop my series of short stories to reflect the different types of worlds that are built within the fantasy genre. Modernly, the terms “low fantasy” and “high fantasy” have begun to be defined as the subgenres of fantasy. These two terms have been debated, some writers and/or readers having slightly different opinions on what each encompasses. In general, low fantasy is defined as a world in which there are fantastical elements, but the story takes place within the world we live. High fantasy, on the other hand, is a world imagined by the author, entirely separate from our world (though there are various things within these other worlds that may resemble ours). The first short story in this series, “What a Life”, is a modern fairytale that represents the more tradition fantasy genre.

  • Architectural Structures in the Victorian Novel
    “ALL MEN ARE BUILDERS”: ARCHITECTURAL STRUCTURES IN THE VICTORIAN NOVEL ________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________________ by Joann D. Griffith May 2015 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Peter Logan, Advisory Chair, English Dr. Talissa Ford, English Dr. Therese Dolan, Art History Dr. Kate Thomas, English, Bryn Mawr Dr. Jill Rappoport, External Member, English, University of Kentucky ABSTRACT Nineteenth-century Britain experienced a confluence of a rapidly urbanizing physical environment, radical changes in the hierarchical relationships in society as well as in the natural sciences, and a nostalgic fascination with antiquities, especially gothic architecture. The realist novels of this period reflect this tension between dramatic social restructuring and a conservative impulse to remember and maintain the world as it has been. This dissertation focuses on the word structure to unpack the implications of these opposing forces, both for our understanding of the social structures that novels reflect, and the narrative structures that novels create. To address these issues, I examine the architectural structures described in Victorian realist novels, drawing parallels with their social and narrative structures. In Charles Dickens’s Little

  • Hannibal Lecter," Enters It and Waits
    H A N N I B A L Screenplay by Steven Zaillian Based on the Novel by Thomas Harris Revision February 9, 2000 INT. PANEL VAN - DAY Clarice Starling is dead, laid out in fatigues across a bench in the back of a ratty, rattling undercover van. Three other agents sit perched on the opposite bench, staring at her lifeless body. BURKE How can she sleep at a time like this? BRIGHAM She's on a jump-out squad all night; she's saving her strength. INT. UNDERGROUND GARAGE - DAY Gray cement walls blur past as the panel van descends a circular ramp to a lower level. As it straightens out, the view through the windshield reveals a gathering of men and vehicles - marked and unmarked DC police cars - and two black SWAT vans. The panel van - with Marcell's Crab House painted on its sides - pulls to a stop. The back doors open from the inside and Starling is the first one out - well-rested and alert - hoisting down her equipment bag. One of the DC policemen, the one whose girth and manner say he's in charge, watches the woman by the van slip into a Kevlar vest, drop a Colt .45 into a shoulder holster, and a .38 into an ankle holster. She straightens up, approaches the men and lays a street plan across the hood of one of their cars. STARLING All right, everyone, pay attention. Here's the layout - BOLTON Excuse me, I'm Officer Bolton, DC Police. STARLING Yes, I can see that from your uniform and badge, how do you do? BOLTON I'm in charge here.

  • The COMPLETE Archimage
    Part 1 Salvage For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. “The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House” by Audre Lorde Anthy stirred the tea in her cup, the spoon clinking delicately against the sides. I fell back onto the floor and stretched. "Do you work today?" I asked, staring at the cracks in the plaster ceiling. "No." C-clink. C-clink. C-clink. Clank. "Your class today was cancelled?" "Yes." Nanami, our large, round, mostly gray cat, glanced at Chu-Chu with some irritation as he fell asleep on her flank. She slithered out from under him and hopped heavily off the sofa onto my stomach, where she dug for a moment with small, white-gloved paws, then settled. Chu-Chu remained asleep in his new position. The room was silent, except for his snoring, all of us motionless. It was a soft day outside, gray and drizzly and just a little chilly, which made the pinks and reds and magentas of the cherry blossoms at the window glow. The phone rang. I jumped, Anthy jumped, and Nanami levitated off my stomach. While Nanami licked her shoulder, Anthy and I gazed at the clanging thing with loathing. She resigned herself more quickly than I did, and answered. "Hello?" Even now, it was jarring. The shift from Japanese to English, I mean. Anthy had lifted the ban on Japanese at home years ago, during college, once she decided that my English was good enough.

Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Trudier Harris María DeGuzmán Ariel Dorfman Madeline G. Levine Monica Rector 2009 Camille Terese Passalacqua ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Camille Terese Passalacqua: The Corporeal Trauma Narratives of Gayl Jones’s Corregidora, Phyllis Alesia Perry’s Stigmata and Luisa Valenzuela’s Cambio de armas (Under the direction of Professor Trudier Harris) All of the conflicts and ensuing traumas examined in these literary narratives address the suppression of a national consciousness about the severity of the crimes committed against certain groups of individuals in the Americas—against Africans forced into slavery and the descendants of these enslaved individuals, and against the victims of Argentina’s recent national conflict. This dissertation investigates the wounded and violated female body as the site for healing from and integration of individual and collective traumatic experiences. This four-chapter investigation draws from trauma theorists working in various disciplines, such as Cathy Caruth, Dori Laub, Shoshana Felman, Dominick LaCapra, Judith Lewis Herman, and Elaine Scarry, in order to establish the theoretical approaches to traumatic memory, testimony, and witnessing. Any theoretical exploration into the representation and articulation of trauma must include a return to the body as not just the site for pain, wounding, and separation of self from body and soul.
