  • JACQUES ROUSSEAU's EMILE By
    TOWARD AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE NOVELISTIC DIMENSION OF JEAN- JACQUES ROUSSEAU’S EMILE by Stephanie Miranda Murphy A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Stephanie Miranda Murphy 2020 Toward an Understanding of the Novelistic Dimension of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Emile Stephanie Miranda Murphy Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science ABSTRACT The multi-genre combination of philosophic and literary expression in Rousseau’s Emile provides an opportunity to explore the relationship between the novelistic structure of this work and the substance of its philosophical teachings. This dissertation explores this matter through a textual analysis of the role of the novelistic dimension of the Emile. Despite the vast literature on Rousseau’s manner of writing, critical aspects of the novelistic form of the Emile remain either misunderstood or overlooked. This study challenges the prevailing image in the existing scholarship by arguing that Rousseau’s Emile is a prime example of how form and content can fortify each other. The novelistic structure of the Emile is inseparable from Rousseau’s conception and communication of his philosophy. That is, the novelistic form of the Emile is not simply harmonious with the substance of its philosophical content, but its form and content also merge to reinforce Rousseau’s capacity to express his teachings. This dissertation thus proposes to demonstrate how and why the novelistic

  • The Monomyth Today: the Journey of the Mythological Hero in Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins’
    Morais, G. A. L. F. de. (2018); ‘The monomyth today: the journey of the mythological hero in Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins’ Rosetta 22: 40 - 64 http://www.rosetta.bham.ac.uk/issue22/Morais.pdf The monomyth today: the journey of the mythological hero in Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins Guilherme Augusto Louzada Ferreira de Morais UNESP/IBILCE – FAPESP Proc. nº 2015 / 23592-4 Abstract In this article, my objective is to analyse and revise the classical hero model, based mainly on The Hero with a Thousand Faces,1 a theoretical apparatus of great importance with regard to the characterization of mythological heroes. Concurrently, I will demonstrate, from Campbell’s theory, how Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire’s author,2 performs in her work the monomyth, and how she inserted the model of the classical hero into the narrative road of her main character, Katniss Everdeen. Keywords: Joseph Campbell; Classical hero model; mythological hero; Suzanne Collins; Katniss Everdeen. 1 Campbell 2004. 2 Collins 2009. 40 This work proposes to analyse and revise the classical hero model in the novel Catching Fire, by the American author Suzanne Collins. Joseph Campbell’s The Hero with a Thousand Faces3 will be the most important theoretical apparatus of this essay. I use, as a source of the classical myths, authors such as Homer and Ovid, but I also use The Concise Dictionary Of Classical Mythology, by Pierre Grimal, a French historian, classicist and Latinist. Campbell analyses the exploits of heroes from various narratives, not sticking merely to the classics (namely the most well-known myths, such as Perseus, Heracles, etc.), and uses hero narratives to suggest that humanity has always had the same dreams and fears.

  • The Myth of Helen of Troy: Reinterpreting the Archetypes of the Myth in Solo and Collaborative Forms of Playwriting
    The Myth of Helen of Troy: Reinterpreting the Archetypes of the Myth in Solo and Collaborative Forms of Playwriting. Volume One of Two Submitted by Ioannis Souris to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Performance Practice In October 2011 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract In this practice-based thesis I examine how I interpreted the myth of Helen of Troy in solo and collaborative forms of playwriting. For the interpretation of Helen’s myth in solo playwriting, I wrote a script that contextualised in a contemporary world the most significant characters of Helen’s myth which are: Helen, Menelaus, Hermione, Paris, Hecuba, Priam. This first practical research project investigated how characters that were contemporary reconstructions of Menelaus, Hermione, Paris , Hecuba, Priam, Telemachus were affected by Helen as an absent figure, a figure that was not present on stage but was remembered and discussed by characters. For the interpretation of Helen’s myth in collaborative playwriting, I asked three female performers to analyse the character of Helen and then conceptualise and write their own Helen character. The performers’ analyses and rewritings of Helen inspired me to write a script whose story evolved around three Helen characters that were dead and interacted with one another in a space of death.

  • 4. Barsine, Daughter of Artabazus
    Alexander’s Lovers by Andrew Chugg 4. Barsine, Daughter of Artabazus Barsine was by birth a minor princess of the Achaemenid Empire of the Persians, for her father, Artabazus, was the son of a Great King’s daughter.197 It is known that his father was Pharnabazus, who had married Apame, the daughter of Artaxerxes II, some time between 392 - 387BC.198 Artabazus was a senior Persian Satrap and courtier and was latterly renowned for his loyalty first to Darius, then to Alexander. Perhaps this was the outcome of a bad experience of the consequences of disloyalty earlier in his long career. In 358BC Artaxerxes III Ochus had upon his accession ordered the western Satraps to disband their mercenary armies, but this edict had eventually edged Artabazus into an unsuccessful revolt. He spent some years in exile at Philip’s court during Alexander’s childhood, starting in about 352BC and extending until around 349BC,199 at which time he became reconciled with the Great King. It is likely that his daughter Barsine and the rest of his immediate family accompanied him in his exile, so it is feasible that Barsine knew Alexander when they were both still children. Plutarch relates that she had received a “Greek upbringing”, though in point of fact this education could just as well have been delivered in Artabazus’ Satrapy of Hellespontine Phrygia, where the population was predominantly ethnically Greek. As a young girl, Barsine appears to have married Mentor,200 a Greek mercenary general from Rhodes. Artabazus had previously married the sister of this Rhodian, so Barsine may have been Mentor’s niece.

  • Mentoring Toolkit
    1 Mentor Tools and Tips for a Positive Mentoring Experience SEAS Center for Women in Engineering Spring 2020 What is Mentoring? Mentoring is a structured and trusted relationship. It is an intentional relationship established for a specific duration around mutually agreed upon goals of guiding, supporting, and encouraging the development of the mentee. The word “mentor” has its origin in Greek mythology. Mentor was the son of Alcimus. Mentor was a close friend of Odysseus. As Odysseus went off to the Trojan War, he asked Mentor to guide Telemachus (Odysseus son). So, does a mentor have to be a male? No, a female can be a mentor too, as evidenced by Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, even if she disguised herself as a man and took on Mentor’s form when she, too, spoke to Telemachus. A mentor, an experienced and trusted advisor, serves as a professional colleague. The best mentors encourage their mentees, serve as supporters, motivators, advocates, role models and even friends. While some suggest a mentor is a coach, there is a distinction: A mentor is the ‘wise’ teacher who is there to support, rather than someone who is constantly on the sidelines suggesting new behaviors or actions. Mentors also discover challenges and rewards in the relationship. In addition to the satisfaction mentors get from working with a mentee, mentors can develop their own leadership and communication skills through the relationship. Mentors who approach the relationship with an open mind also gain new perspectives and new ways of thinking about challenges through discussions with mentees. As a mentor, it is up to you to maintain the structured and trusted relationship.

    New Member Program Mentor Guide Faculty Association Suffolk Community College Southampton Bldg, Room 224J Selden, New York 11784-2899 (631) 451-4151 www.fascc.org The Story of the Mentor The story of the Mentor comes from Homer’s Odyssey. When Odysseus, King of Ithaca, leaves to fight in the Trojan War, he entrusts his household to Mentor, who serves as teacher and overseer to Odysseus’ son, Telemachus. After the war, Odysseus is condemned to wander vainly for 10 years in his attempt to return home. In time, Telemachus now grown, goes in search of his father. Athena, Goddess of War, patroness of the arts and industry, assumes the form of Mentor and accompanies Telemachus on his quest. Eventually, father and son are reunited and together they cast down would-be usurpers of Odysseus’s throne and of Telemachus’s birthright. In time, the word mentor became synonymous with trusted advisor, friend teacher, and wise person. History offers many examples of helpful mentoring relationships such as Socrates and Plato, Haydn and Beethoven, and Freud and Jung. Mentoring is a fundamental form of human development where one person invest time, energy and personal know-how assisting the growth and ability of another person. History and legend record deeds of princes and kings, but in a democracy each of us also has a birthright, which is to be all that we can be. Mentors are the special people in our lives who, through their deeds and work, help us to move toward fulfilling that potential. (Adapted From Mentoring, Gordon F. Shea) 2 Faculty Association of Suffolk Community College New Member Mentoring Program Statement of Purpose The New Member Mentoring Program focuses on identifying professional and work-related needs of new members by pairing them up with faculty members who will serve as positive role models, guides, and supports.

  • In Moments Like These, We Need Mentors April 26, 2010 the SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
    In moments like these, we need mentors April 26, 2010 THE SYDNEY MORNING HERALD The young man's home is besieged by rude, crude, older men all trying to marry his mother, who is locked in her room. His father has been abroad for 20 years. His mother's suitors pillage his home and insult him. He protests, but no one listens. He's not confident and he's inexperienced. Who can help? This is the mythical story of Telemachus, the son of Odysseus. The goddess Athena takes the form of Mentor, an old man of Ithaca, to assist Telemachus. Mentor urges Telemachus to go abroad to find news of his father; to seek the counsel of kings and soldiers - an act of intelligence and insight that enhances the boy's independent spirit. His name has passed from ancient Greece to us, yet mentors can be all too rare at work. Many people enter adulthood without any guidance in private life. Younger workers may miss out because of short-term contracts, high staff turnover or competition for advancement. And professional mentoring can easily decline into formalised, cynical or clumsy networking. At best, mentors are vital for development - particularly in families like Telemachus's, where parents cannot help. They stop us from squandering our gifts and impoverishing our minds. The word is important because it reminds us of the mentor's distinctive role: not simply teacher, role model or friend, but something singular. The job of a teacher is chiefly to relay information; to teach skills, or pass on facts. The best teachers do more than this, and even to achieve the basics they need to be aware of the student's character; to adjust lessons and goals to the vicissitudes of a child's psyche.

  • "The Odyssey"And Soyinka^S "The Bacchae of Euripides"
    Cross-Cultural Dialogues with Greek Classics: Walcotù "The Odyssey"and Soyinka^s "The Bacchae of Euripides" VALÉRIE BADA D EREK WALCOTT'S The Odyssey and Wole Soyinka's The Bacchae of Euripides represent creative attempts to revitalise Western canonical works by offering a visionary reconstruction of subterranean mythic recurrences through a creolization rooted in Caribbean folklore, on the one hand, and an explora• tion of the myth of Dionysos in the light of Yoruba cosmology on the other. This imaginative reshaping of literary and reli• gious myths does not so much betray a need for classical valida• tion as it reveals a comparative scrutinising of archetypal patterns in order to disclose "latent cross-culturalities" (Harris, "Quetzalcoatl" 40, qtd. in Maesjelinek 37), that is, a subterra• nean cross-cultural polyphonic structure. Homer's epic and Euripides' play appear as palimpsests constantly disrupted by overarching textual revisions entirely written in the spaces be• tween the Greek words. The revelation of cross-cultural streams of myths, concepts and symbols underscores the regenerative potentiality of the original literary paradigms whose latent am• biguity, shifting meaning and archetypal qualities define them as poetic sites particularly open to creative alterations. Walcott's and Soyinka's plays reveal an unrelenting obsession with myth and make clear its complex interaction with history. The two playwrights' poetic imagination is constantly immersed in currents of change by crossing mythological archetypes (Car• ibbean, Yoruba and European) with fresh historical insights and by bringing myths "into explosive contact with the rawness of the present" (Moore 169). This reactivation and creative ARIEL: A Review of International English Literature, 31:3, July 2000 8 VALÉRIE BADA mutation of mythological themes reveal the two poets as both users and creators of myths: their imagination is both rooted in mythic grounds and involved in a mythopoeic dynamics of cul• tural cross-fertilization.
