It was fascinating stuff, and what seemed to me as the perfect marrying of modern technology with historic criminal trials. MacKay’s snappy tweets included “Witness from a provisioner, a Mrs Martin, on Princes Street recalled Bury visiting to buy a piece of cord. He looked at a number before declaring “this one will do nicely” and “Bury said he’d feared being apprehended as Jack the Ripper and so had cut her up and put her in a box.

  • Pedophilia, Poe, and Postmodernism in Lolita
    Nabokov’s Dark American Dream: Pedophilia, Poe, and Postmodernism in Lolita by Heather Menzies Jones A Thesis Submitted to the Department of English of the State University of New York, College at Brockport, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS 1995 ii Nabokov’s Dark American Dream: Pedophilia, Poe, and Postmodernism in Lolita by Heather Menzies Jones APPROVED: ________________________________________ _________ Advisor Date ________________________________________ _________ Reader ________________________________________ __________ Reader ________________________________________ __________ Chair, Graduate Committee _______________________________________ ___________ Chair, Department of English iii Table of Contents Chapter Page Introduction 1 Pedophilia and Lolita 10 Poe and Lolita 38 Postmodernism and Lolita 58 Works Cited 83 1 INTRODUCTION The following thesis about Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita first began as a paper written as an assignment for a course about postmodern American literature. In the initial paper's title there was an allusion made to the implicated reader, and the paper itself was about giving Lolita a newer and postmodern reading. To read Lolita again, years after doing so initially, was a distinctly disturbing thing to do. The cultural climate has certainly changed since the mid-1950's when the book was first published in this country, and this alone makes the rereading of this novel an engaging opportunity. Lionel Trilling wrote that Nabokov sought to shock us and that he had to stage-manage something uniquely different in order to do so. Trilling believed that the effect of breaking the taboo "about the sexual unavailability of very young girls" had the same force as a "wife's infidelity had for Shakespeare" (5).

  • That None Should Be Lost: War and Gospel in The
    THAT NONE SHOULD BE LOST: WAR AND GOSPEL IN THE CHRISTIAN INDEX, 1860-1865 by THOMAS LEE DREWRY Under the direction of Emory Thomas ABSTRACT Human tragedy breeds certain questions. Loss and grief expose dark recesses of the human spirit, those fears and feelings often hidden from life’s mundane routines that persist, unsuspecting of pending crisis or mortality. Prompted by questions of life, death, and tragedy, many turn to individual frameworks of belief, often religious in nature and in form, in order to heal, to find answers, and simply to do something. During the Civil War, many Confederates sought religion for the sustenance, direction, and motivation necessary for individual and collective survival. For many Americans on both sides of conflict, religion and war were partners. For Confederates, evangelical Christianity proved influential in the daily practices of individual faith and the formation of a national identity. Historians have not adequately examined this relationship, and such inadequacies inspired this study.
