Abstract (sommario):

James Shirley is a distinctly Caroline playwright: his first play was performed in the year of Charles I’s coronation, 1625, and his last the year of the outbreak of civil war in 1642. Yet his importance extends beyond the era in which he worked as a professional playwright. As one among a handful of dramatists whose work was staged regularly by the new playing companies after the theatres reopened in 1660, he is an important figure in the development of new modes of theatre. Despite having had more of his plays produced on the Restoration stage than Shakespeare did, scholarship on his significance to Restoration drama has been remarkably scant. This thesis investigates the significance of Shirley in the Carolean period, tracing the adaptations of Shirley throughout the reign of Charles II. It uses Shirley as a case study to investigate transitions in theatrical practice before 1642 and after 1660, paying attention also to the continuities. This thesis asks why Shirley’s plays were considered suitable by the managers of the Restoration theatre companies who staged them: the King’s Company under Sir Thomas Killigrew, the Duke’s Company under Sir William Davenant, George Jolly’s ‘Nursery’ group, performing at Hatton Garden, and the Red Bull Players, an illegal, pre-Restoration group. It also explores the ways in which Shirley’s plays were adapted in response to the changed social and political climate after 1660, including textual amendments made and the addition of new prologues. It concludes by asking why Shirley’s reputation declined so sharply in the long eighteenth century while Shakespeare’s came to pre-eminence, by comparing the Restoration treatment of his plays with those of Shakespeare.

Abstract (sommario):

Cette étude analyse les modalités de l’inhabitable dans un monde hostile et instable, ainsi que les stratégies élaborées afin de contrecarrer les effets pervers de l’instabilité. La violence des affects en jeu est à l’image de la cruauté des relations sociales, et ne laisse que peu d’espace viable même au sein du cercle familial, lui aussi soumis à l’entropie de la méchanceté ontologique. Les héroïnes de Jackson, confrontées de diverses manières aux résurgences d’expériences traumatiques que la traversée du présent, odyssée physique et psychique, transforme en obstacles insurmontables, recherchent la demeure idéale où se réfugier et trouver l’ancrage que leur interdit le monde extérieur. Jackson utilise les tropes de la maison gothique, de la hantise et du surnaturel pour illustrer les rouages trompeurs qui se mettent en place dès lors que ses héroïnes pensent avoir trouvé un tel lieu. Le paradoxe du corps maternel, qui fait cohabiter la vie et la mort, sous leurs formes pulsionnelles les plus destructrices, est le principe fondateur de l’effondrement des personnages. La folie apparaît comme un des moyens de comprendre l’incompréhensible, et de contenir la fragmentation. Enfin, l’invention du nom constitue le dernier retranchement où construire une demeure intérieure
Our study examines the modalities of the uninhabitable in the work of Jackson, where the characters are imprisoned in a world intrinsically hostile, as well as the strategies they use to thwart the instability it entails. The violence of the feelings at stake mirrors the cruelty of social relationships, leaving but little livable space even within the family circle, also affected by the entropy of ontological evil. Jackson’s heroines, variously confronted to the reemergence of past traumatic experiences that their odyssey through the present time transforms into unsurmountable obstacles, seek the ideal house, the haven that will anchor them into a world that rejects them. Jackson uses the tropes of the gothic haunted house as maternal space to illustrate the deadly deception such a place embodies. The cohabitation the most drastic forms of the death drive and vital impulses is the foundation principle of mental dissolution. Madness is one of the means to both embrace and understand the incomprehensible. We conclude by showing how the invention of one’s name is a way of elaborating an inner house

Abstract (sommario):

Although he was a prominent and influential playwright during his theatrical career, the work of James Shirley (1596-1666) has been neglected since Dryden's description of him in 'MacFlecknoe' as a mere 'type...of tautology'. Shirley holds a unique place amongst Caroline dramatists as, at the height of his career, he left London to become resident playwright of the first purpose-built theatre in Ireland, the Werburgh Street Theatre. This seminal event has received fairly little attention from scholars, and the plays of this Irish period (The Royal Master, The Doubtful Heir, The Gentleman of Venice, The Politician and St. Patrick for Ireland) have not previously been examined as a whole. This thesis examines Shirley's Irish period in its entirety, from the circumstances surrounding his move to Dublin in 1636, through an exploration of his relationship with the Werburgh Street Theatre and what influenced his Irish plays, to the factors which resulted in his return to England in 1640. The thesis historicises the production of these plays in their socio-political context. The chapters (chronologically arranged by play) provide close textual studies and contextual material relating the texts to their patrons, performance spaces, audiences, print history and Irish politics. This research reveals that during this four year period, Shirley gradually adapted his writing style in a targeted attempt to appeal to the tastes of the Dublin audience. Shirley managed the theatre with John Ogilby, who was appointed Master of the Revels in Ireland by Lord Deputy Wentworth. An analysis of the relationship between these three key figures has contributed to a comprehensive picture of the socio-political conditions of Shirley‘s writing. Through the investigation of Shirley's work and professional position during this time, this thesis builds on recent critical recovery work (including that by Hadfield/Maley, Rankin, Dutton) on the literary-political circumstances of Stuart Ireland.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This is a thesis comprising two components: a portion of my novella and a dissertation. My work of fiction, Turning Road, draws loosely on the Bluebeard fairytale, as well as theories of identity and nation, as a means of exploring a young Australian womans journey to London, a journey which is both symbolic and psychological. The second component is the critical essay, which considers the extent to which Australian womens expatriate fiction can be read as a variation of Bluebeard. Australian womens expatriate fiction has been characterised as a journey involving a doomed love affair with a self-centred male in London.1 To date, most critical attention on the genre has focussed on the extent to which it employs the Odyssean myth to consider gender and colonial identity. It is my contention that reading Bluebeard in The Transit of Venus highlights issues of identity and power in relation to gender and nation. Through its central themes of threat, sexuality, secrecy, self-knowledge and seriality, Bluebeard warns against prescribed gender roles/relations and limiting identifications, and works towards depicting a new liberating space between contrasting spaces identified as home and abroad.

Walker, Kim Pauline. "James Shirley, 'The Dukes Mistris' : an old-spelling edition". Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 1985. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/18677.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

James Shirley's The Dukes Mistris was licensed in 1636 and published in 1638. The play has not previously been edited in accordance with modern bibliographical standards; the only available text outside copies of the original Quarto is the modernised edition prepared by William Gi'fford and Alexander Dyce for The Dramatic Works and Poems of 1833. This edition aims to revive critical and dramatic interest in the play itself while establishing a text which will provide a sound basis for scholars and students of Renaissance drama alike. My edition is based on a collation of twenty copies of the 1638 Quarto (at least six of each of the three variant states which exist). All variant readings deriving from press correction are recorded. The original spelling has been retained and punctuation is emended sparingly. All emendations are included in the textual footnotes, and substantive emendations are discussed in the commentary. The commentary includes interpretive comments, glosses, textual notes, dramatic analogues and explanation of contemporary references. The Dukes Mistris, a tragicomedy, was written during a period when Charles I was ruling without Parliament and when prlciosite was flourishing at court. One of the most significant aspects of the play, I believe, is its relevance to the contemporary political and social situation.' The introduction to the edition discusses in some detail the thematic concerns of the play and their context: love and service, the royal prerogative and Platonic love. While the ideas of the play add considerable interest, they are set in a chain of love entanglements which are conventional in tragicomedy. Shirley's dramatic craftsmanship is approached from the perspective of tragicomedy and its conventions since the language, characterisation and structure of the play reflect his skilful blending of tragic and comic modes. The Dukes Mistris makes no profound statements but it is successful tragicomedy and effective theatre. In play-text, introduction and commentary, the staging of the play receives consideration in the hope that this edition will encourage production on the modern stage.

Voss, Kristin. "Individuation and the Demeter-Persephone Myth in Charlotte Bronte's Shirley". ScholarWorks@UNO, 2007. http://scholarworks.uno.edu/td/1056.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Inconsistencies in character and structural development inform criticism of Charlotte Bronte's Shirley. I argue that the phases of emotional and physical illness that the heroine, Caroline Helstone, undergoes mirror the stages of individuation observed by Jung. I suggest that Bronte uses the Demeter-Kore myth—which Jung saw as an archetypal expression of female transformative experience—as an underlying plot structure for her novel. The division of the novel into three volumes mirrors significant stages of individuation and major plot shifts in the "Hymn." Persephone's abduction and Demeter's wandering correspond with Caroline's sudden depression and with the shadow phase of individuation. Demeter's entrance into Eleusis and her caretaking of Demophoon mark the incorporation of the animus; in Volume Two, Caroline, also, undergoes the animus confrontation; the reunion between mother and daughter in the "Hymn" and in Volume Three of the novel correspond with the union of the conscious and unconscious in individuation.

Abstract (sommario):

A invisibilidade de Shirley Jackson e seu status de escritora esquecida são investigados nesta tese. Para tanto, reclamações da escassez de críticas avaliativas de seus trabalhos são estudadas no intuito de determinar o quanto estes rótulos danosos realmente refletem seu reconhecimento historicamente pela crítica especializada/acadêmica, pela mídia e pelo público leitor. Exemplos de atividade cultural intensa relativa à sua literatura são oferecidos como contraponto para expor as incongruências que contaminam grande parte de sua historiografia literária. O escopo deste estudo exploratório perfaz um amplo corpo de críticas a respeito dos trabalhos de Jackson desde os anos 1940 até o presente. Dentre as metas desta tese estão a investigação destas inconsistências e a oferta de insights em relação aos fatores que potencialmente as causam. Além disso, uma crítica ainda não realizada é proposta, uma que coloca a autora no centro do empreendimento analítico; em outras palavras, que usa o próprio material ficcional de Jackson como base teórica contra qual examinar sua ficção. Uma seleção de quatro contos compõe o corpus desta pesquisa, são eles ―The Intoxicated‖, ―The Daemon Lover‖, ―Like Mother Used to Make‖ e ―The Villager‖, todos publicados na seminal coleção The Lottery and Other Stories de 1948. Discussões acerca das conexões intertextuais que une os quatro contos são conduzidas com o objetivo de explicitar o quão penetrantes e influentes estes elementos temáticos comuns podem ser, especialmente no que toca os temas que formam o que aqui é chamado de Shirley Jackson Lore.
Shirley Jackson‘s alleged invisibility and status as a forgotten writer are investigated in this thesis. Thus, complaints of a shortage of critical assessment regarding her works were studied in order to determine how these detrimental labels actually reflect her recognition historically by specialized/academic critics, media and reading public. Instances of lively artistic and cultural activity stemming from her literature are offered as counterpoints that expose much of the incongruence that contaminates her literary historiography. The scope of this exploratory study spans a wide-ranging body of criticism about Jackson‘s works from the 1940s to the present. Among the aims of this thesis are the investigation of these disputable inconsistencies and the offering of insights into the potential factors that have caused them. Moreover, it tentatively proposes the critique that does not yet exist, that which places the very author at the center of the critical-source enterprise; in other words, one that uses Jackson‘s own fictional material as scientific-support and background against which to examine her fiction. A selection of four short stories compose the corpus of this research, namely ―The Intoxicated‖, ―The Daemon Lover‖, ―Like Mother Used to Make‖ and ―The Villager‖, all published in the cardinal 1948 short fiction collection The Lottery and Other Stories. Discussions of the restricted intertextual connections that binds the four stories are conducted so as to make conspicuous how pervasive and influential the essential common thematic elements spread all over her oeuvre can be, especially in what concerns the themes that form what is here called the Shirley Jackson Lore.

Abstract (sommario):

Shirley Jackson's fiction continues to be placed within the gothic horror genre because of its supernatural and horror images. I contend the major focus of her work is her critique of the social norms constructed for women by an archaic and inauthentic patriarchial system of rules and domestic expectation for women that result in madness for the resisting female.

Abstract (sommario):

In Charlotte Bront's 'Jane Eyre' and 'Shirley', an attentive reader is able to find more than meets the eye. While any contemporary reader reads these stories and enjoys them - or not, the reader who did it by the time of their first publication, who was used to reading great works, would actually appreciate them by interacting with the text and understanding their intertextual relations with literary works such as the Bible. Recognizing the dialogue between 'Jane Eyre' and 'Shirley' with other literary works, mainly the Bible, enables the reader, among other things, to make guesses on the characters' future. Such reading has been lost due to the lack of Biblical knowledge by most contemporary readers. In this sense, my work intends to analyze 'Jane Eyre' and 'Shirley' by comparing their plots and the way they confirm or frustrate the reader's expectations towards the future of those characters having as reference the stories from Scriptures. Besides analyzing these novels, though, I propose a discussion on the types of reader who could possibly read and appreciate them. Also, I draw the religious scenario in which they were written in order to see the Biblical allusions through the lenses of the historical reader, understanding the predictions he or she would make, to observe if the allusions confirm or deny the Biblical text.
Em Jane Eyre e Shirley, de Charlotte Brontë, um leitor atento é capaz de encontrar mais do que os olhos podem ver. Enquanto qualquer leitor contemporâneo lê as histórias e se diverte ou não, o leitor que o fez na época de suas primeiras publicações, que estava habituado a ler grandes obras, iria realmente aprecia-las ao interagir com o texto e compreender suas relações intertextuais com obras literárias como a Bíblia. Reconhecer o diálogo entre Jane Eyre e Shirley com outras obras literárias, sobretudo a Bíblia, habilita o leitor, entre outras coisas, a fazer suposições a respeito do futuro das personagens. Tal leitura tem estado perdida devido à falta de conhecimento Bíblico por parte da maioria dos leitores contemporâneos. Neste sentido, meu trabalho pretende analisar Jane Eyre e Shirley, comparando seus enredos e a forma com que confirmam ou frustram as expectativas do leitor com respeito ao futuro daquelas personagens tendo como referência os relatos das Escrituras. Além de analisar os romances, no entanto, proponho uma discussão sobre os tipos de leitores que poderiam ler e apreciá-los. Igualmente, traço o cenário religioso no qual eles foram escritos, a fim de ver as alusões Bíblicas através das lentes do leitor histórico, compreendendo as previsões que ele ou ela poderiam fazer, para observar se as alusões confirmam ou negam o texto Bíblico.

Abstract (sommario):

Detta arbete utgörs av en skönlitterär översättning från engelska till svenska med tillhörande kommentar. Texten som har översatts är skräcknovellen The Summer People av den amerikanska författaren Shirley Jackson (1916–1965). En källtextnära översättningsprincip upprättades för översättningsarbetet baserat på teorier om skopos, polysystemteori samt domesticering/exotisering. Översättningskommentaren innehåller en redogörelse för de översättningsstrategier som tillämpats vad gäller överföring av källtextens kultur- och tidsspecifika referenser, talspråksmarkörer och stilistiska drag. Det utfördes även en mindre specialundersökning bestående av en kvalitativ jämförelse mellan svenska översättningar av Shirley Jacksons romaner utförda av Inger Edelfeldt och Torkel Franzén. Specialundersökningen visade att Edelfeldt tog sig något större friheter med texten, och framför allt Franzéns översättning hade stora likheter med den aktuella översättningen av The Summer People.
This paper consists of a commented translation of literary fiction from English to Swedish. The translated text is a short story of the horror genre called The Summer People by the American author Shirley Jackson (1916–1965). A source text-oriented translation principle was established for the translation task based on theories such as skopos, polysystem theory and domestication/foreignization. The commentary contains an account for the translational strategies that were applied regarding transfer of culture- and period-specific references, indications of spoken language, and literary style in the source text. An additional minor study was also carried out, consisting of a qualitative comparison between translations of Shirley Jackson’s novels executed by Inger Edelfeldt and Torkel Franzén. The additional study showed that Edelfeldt made slightly more alterations of the text, and Franzén’s translation in particular showed striking similarities to the current translation of The Summer People.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

As one of antebellum Tidewater's most prominent planters, Hill Carter and the world he and his slaves made at Shirley occupy an important place in Virginia history. Few scholars, however, have analyzed their roles adequately. Previous studies' overwhelming concentration on the architectural and material culture history of the plantation has left Carter's role as one of Virginia's preeminent agricultural reformers virtually unexplored. Assuming ownership of Shirley in 1816, Carter quickly established himself as a leading proponent of agricultural improvement, both embracing and building on the ideas of other reformers like John Taylor and Edmund Ruffin. He diversified his crops and changed their rotations, used new equipment and improved methods of cultivation, reclaimed poor or unproductive lands, and employed a variety of fertilizers and manures to resuscitate his soils. Significantly, Carter efforts to improve Shirley transformed not only the physical landscape of the plantation. The changes produced in the work and lives of his slaves also were considerable. This study, then, investigates the relationship between agricultural reform and slavery. Instead of looking at reform in terms of how slavery affected (or inhibited) it, this work argues that reform must also be understood in relation to how it affected slavery, for changes manifested in attempts to improve lands had important ramifications on slave work routines, which, in turn, affected slave life in important ways.

Abstract (sommario):

Den här masteruppsatsen består av fyra delar: en nyöversättning från engelska till svenska av ett utdrag ur Charlotte Brontës roman Shirley (1849), en översättningskommentar som går igenom ett antal problemområden, en språklig undersökning samt ett avsnitt om nyöversättning. Den språkliga undersökningen utgörs av en jämförelse mellan användningen av pronominella adverb i uppsatsens översättning av Shirley och i den äldre svenska översättningen från 1854. Studien fokuserar på adverb med förleden där- och var-. Nyöversättningsavsnittet består av en sammanställning av forskningsläget, erfarenheter från nyöversättningen av Shirley samt intervjuer med översättarna Kerstin Gustafsson och Gun-Britt Sundström. I avsnittet redogörs för förlagens, översättarnas och mottagarnas perspektiv på nyöversättning. Dessutom behandlas hur begreppen ”foreignization” och ”domestication” kan appliceras på nyöversättningar samt hur källtexten och dess nya och gamla översättningar påverkar varandra.
This master thesis consists of four parts: a retranslation from English to Swedish of an extract from Charlotte Brontë’s novel Shirley (1849), a theoretical comment on the translation dealing with some of the translation problems, a linguistic study, and a section on retranslation. The linguistic study compares the use of pronominal adverbs in the retranslation of Shirley and the old translation from 1854. The study focuses on adverbs with the prefixes där- and var-. The section on retranslation consists of a compilation of current research, observations from the process of retranslating Shirley, and interviews with two translators, Kerstin Gustafsson and Gun-Britt Sundström. The section describes the publishers’, the translators’ and the recipients’ perspectives on retranslation. In addition, it is discussed how the two concepts “foreignization” and “domestication” can be applied to retranslations, and how the source text and its old and new translations influence each other.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis is a critical examination of a handful of the works of Shirley Jackson. It is an attempt at engaging in critical scholarship that for many years has been relatively lacking. In it, her stories ?The Summer People,? ?Pillar of Salt,? and ?The Daemon Lover? are examined alongside her novels Hangsaman and The Haunting of Hill House. This thesis addresses the ways in which Shirley Jackson writes the interior worlds of her protagonists and explores how those interiors are often physically linked to the physical worlds that these characters inhabit. Particularly, this thesis examines how Jackson writes the dissolution of her characters? fragile interiorities in the face of trauma spurred on by society?s oppression of women. Each section of this thesis attempts to examine how Jackson creates coping mechanisms for these protagonists and how these coping mechanisms fail to provide comfort and safety for her protagonists as their stories progress. By the end of this thesis, it is clear that Jackson?s work is a bleak chronicle of trauma and anxiety. In the starkest terms, she exposes just how few options women have in the face of a society that refuses to allow them to be whole individuals.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis provides an analysis of Shirley Plantation’s operation as a historic house museum from 1894 to the present period, and the Carter family’s dedication to keeping the estate within the family. The first chapter examines Shirley Plantation’s beginnings as a historic house museum as operated by two Carter women, Alice Carter Bransford and Marion Carter Oliver, who inherited the property in the late nineteenth century. The second chapter explores Shirley Plantation’s development as a popular historic site during the mid-twentieth century to the early part of the twenty-first century, and compares the site’s development to the interpretative changes that had been occurring at Colonial Williamsburg. The third chapter analyzes and critiques Shirley Plantation’s present interpretative focus as a historic site, with the fourth chapter offering suggestions for developing an exhibition that interprets the history of slavery at the plantation.

Abstract (sommario):

This study aims at investigating the suitability of the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis and the Speech Learning Model in describing young Swedish learners’ L2 phonology difficulties. It also explores what L1 sounds they replace L2 sounds with, and whether spelling has any influence on pronunciation. 15 Swedish students aged 9-10 were interviewed and recorded reading a word list containing minimal pairs, a text passage, and free speech. The focus was on initial and final / ʃ / and / tʃ /, initial and medial / s / and / z /, and initial / ð / and / θ /. The recordings were analysed with spectrograms and compared to a native speaker. The results were that the SLM has an advantage over the CAH. The results show that / z / was replaced by / s / 100% of the time, / tʃ / was mostly replaced by / ʃ /, but also by / k /; and that / θ / and / ð / were replaced by many different sounds that were not anticipated. The results also showed that orthography affects pronunciation for / θ /, / ð / and / tʃ /, but not for / z /. Some students had nearly established new categories for some of the new sounds, but their daily encounters with English through TV, music, and school does not seem to have had a significant part in this.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

In this essay, I will argue that looking at translation and multilingualism both as a mode of storytelling and as a theme of Brontë's second published novel Shirley can help to uncover previously untapped moments of connection and understanding in the novel. Brontë's exploration of translation and use of multilingualism reveals a sincere urge to connect in spite of tremendous difficulties—connect her characters to each other, connect her narrator to her readers. It is an ambitious, over-reaching goal, which Brontë did not ultimately attain. Yet, for Brontë, her (especially female) characters, and her narrator, translation in all its forms represents their earnest, if ultimately unfulfilled, desire to communicate—to be correctly comprehended and "well-rendered" as texts, whether they are translated by other characters within the novel or by an unseen reader without.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Betty’s Hope plantation and Shirley Heights fort complex were key features of the colonial-period landscape of Antigua, West Indies. Antigua and its sister island Barbuda are small islands located in the Lesser Antillean chain of the Caribbean. As such, it has long been assumed that these islands and others like them relied more heavily on imported provisions compared to larger islands like Jamaica that implemented significant localized provisioning systems. However, select colonial-period sites throughout the region have begun to produce zooarchaeological data contrary to this assumption via significant contributions of local tropical taxa to the faunal assemblages. Yet the overarching narratives for the islands continue to downplay the importance of these findings. Combining historical documents and faunal material as the primary lines of evidence allows for integration of broad politico-economic contextualization with the ecological parameters of each Caribbean island. For socially-stratified sites such as plantations and forts, divisions of class and rank are manifested on the landscape. Therefore, differential distribution of faunal material can attest to these various types of provisioning systems. For the colonial Caribbean, existing historical literature has long focused on the long-distance provisioning systems across the Atlantic. Yet the faunal material can also demonstrate short-distance and locally-acquired tropical resources. Thus, these data fill critical lacunae in the documentary evidence about quotidian lifeways and how Caribbean residents adjusted to large-scale political and/or environmental changes through localized solutions within and between islands. Specifically, my research focuses on re-centering two often-overlooked taxa in historical zooarchaeology: fish and mollusks. These taxa are typically considered to be bulk protein sources, primarily examined via ecological niche exploitation and capture methods utilized. Unfortunately, fish and mollusks are rarely engaged with in the same nuanced ways that other animals are—particularly domesticates—with respect to foodways practices and elite performative dining. In contrast, I argue that these taxa provide critical insight into the ways that specific taxa were differentially utilized in colonial Caribbean plantation and fort contexts. Each context further provided the opportunity to examine expressions of status and access to certain markets and ecological niches for planters, servants, enslaved Africans, officers, and soldiers. Although all taxonomic classes were identified, the fish and mollusks were the most variable taxa within and between the plantation and fort contexts. This research integrates critical data to the region’s corpus of colonial-period faunal research, and addresses distinct lacunae in colonial Caribbean discussions of provisioning and dining.

Abstract (sommario):

Cette thèse a pour but d’examiner la notion de temporalité dans la littérature du Sud du XXesiècle à travers les écrits de Walker Percy, Peter Taylor, Shirley Ann Grau et Reynolds Price. À partir d’une sélection de leurs romans et nouvelles, je tenterai d’expliquer en quoi lalittérature du Sud reflète l’esprit communautaire d’une région et essaie de saisir un tempsqui se dérobe. Ces quatre écrivains présentent chacun à leur manière la corrélation entremémoire et oubli, vie et mort. Leurs écrits sont hantés par la question de l’origine : origineperdue d’un temps insaisissable, origine manquante d’une parole devenue mythique dont larelation à la vérité pose souvent problème. Les représentations du monde alentour sont brouillées, l’ici ne semble jamais accueillant ; d’où un besoin constant de s’évader. Le passé, en resurgissant sous différentes formes, enferme les personnages dans des interrogations existentielles et hante leur présent. Le lien étroit entretenu avec l’histoire dans la production littéraire de ces quatre écrivains suggère que l’écrivain du Sud est un romancier historique malgré lui
The aim of this dissertation is to examine the concept of time in 20th century southern literature through the writings of Walker Percy, Peter Taylor, Shirley Ann Grau and Reynolds Price. Through a selection of novels and short stories I shall attempt to explain how southern literature reflects the communal spirit of the region and grapples with a forever elusive time. Each in their own way, these four writers show the correlation between memory and oblivion, life and death. Their works are haunted by the notion of origin: the lost origin of a time that cannot be grasped, the missing origin of a mythic word whose relation to truth is often problematic. The representations of the surrounding world are blurry, the here and now never seems welcoming; hence the protagonists’ constant need to escape. The past that emerges under different guises locks up the characters in existential questionings and haunts their present. The close relation binding the literary production of these four writers with time suggests that southern authors write historical fiction in spite of themselves

Abstract (sommario):

For years social workers have been involved in the investigation of child abuse cases, which includes the sexual abuse of children. The forensic social worker primarily engages with the investigation of child sexual abuse allegations and their involvement begins when a criminal case of alleged child sexual abuse is registered with the police. The core function of forensic social workers is to objectively assist the South African Police Service (SAPS) and the judicial system during the investigation of crimes against children, which includes cases of alleged sexual abuse of babies. The aim of this study was to determine the role of the forensic social worker in cases of sexual abuse of babies in the Boland. A qualitative research procedure was followed and data was gathered through in-depth interviews with three state prosecutors working in regional courts in Worcester, Ceres and Paarl. In-depth interviews were also conducted with three SAPS forensic social workers in these areas. The results of the investigation were summarised according to certain themes. The results of the study indicate that the successful prosecution and conviction of offenders of the sexual abuse of babies are limited, because a baby is unable to deliver testimony. The crucial role of the qualified forensic social worker in the investigation of these cases was highlighted in the study. The participants found the thorough investigation of collateral sources and the interpretation of information gathered by forensic social workers of great value. As an expert witness the forensic social worker can therefore play a prominent role in the conviction of offenders of sexual abuse of babies.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis examines the representation of domesticity in the psychological and physical lives of women in literature. The interpretive question of the argument asks, how does the haunting of domesticity affect and create meaning in the lives of female characters? Domesticity is an idea that has been used to as a means of submission by a domineering other. The idea of domesticity is a catalyst that is used to help Hulga Hopewell from Flannery O’Connor’s “Good Country People” and Eleanor Vance from Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House to break away from oppressive influences; by examining these feminist narratives we will see how two women attempt to survive the physical and mental hauntings of domesticity and its effects on their minds and bodies as they try to preserve the self. Hulga and Eleanor are women who are not following the expectations of family nor society, as they choose to take different paths in life, they face judgment and criticism for not following societal norms. These women will struggle against the domesticity that has been passed down for generations through their mothers. Hulga is forced to move back home, where she tries everything to avoid her mother’s brand of domesticity, and Eleanor runs away trying to escape the bonds of domesticity. Both women come face to face with their deepest fears when they confront this haunting; and ultimately will be physically and mentally traumatized.
