Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2, University of Dusseldorf 'Heinrich Heine', course: T. S. Eliot, language: English, abstract: 1935 is the year of Eliot's writing 'Murder in the Cathedral', the first religious verse drama in his career as dramatist. Writing his own critical essay on 'Murder in the Cathedral', Eliot focuses on a lot of topics and difficulties, writing a first drama in verse. One of the topics Eliot refers to in his essay 'Poetry and Drama' is his reflection on the Women Chorus in 'Murder in the Cathedral' and their dramatic function during the play. Reflecting on this topic and giving an answer to the question, if there are other functions, which can be attributed to the Chorus, will be my job in this paper. But before dealing with the actual topic, I will use this introduction, which I consider the first unit of my paper, in order to give you an overview of the units and topics of the paper.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: Good, University of Dusseldorf 'Heinrich Heine' (Anglistics), course: Contemporary Literature Theory and Criticism, language: English, abstract: 'Criticism, is the overall term for studies concerned with defining, clasifying, analysing, interpreting, and evaluating works of literature.'1 What I'm going to analyze in this work is not criticism, but 'theoretical criticism'. Theoretical criticism proposes a theory of literature, in the sense of general principles, together with a set of terms, distinctions and categories , to be applied to identifying and analyzing works of literature, as well as the 'criteria'2 by which these works and their writers are to be evaluated. Since the 1970s there has been a flood of writings, Continental, American and English, proposing diverse nove l and radical forms of critical theory. Why do we need criticism In order to understand texts or to give them the 'right interpretation'3. But can one speak about a right interpretation In order to find a plausible answer to this question, I will focus on two of the most important modern literary theories, namely New Criticism, defined as 'an achieved unity of meanings'4 and Deconstruction as 'a galaxy of signifiers'5, comparing the two ones by means of the consulted essays on New Criticism and Deconstruction.But before comparing the two theories, I will first introduce you into the meaning and features of both theories, presenting you some of the most important critics and their essays and critical theories referring to New Criticism and Deconstruction. I will dedicate the last two units of my paper to an ample comparison between New Criticism and Deconstruction, showing you, that there are both similarities and differences to find in the two theories, and that in spite of all the differences, the former survives in the last one. Moreover, I will point some personal conclusions concerning my own point of view to the topics mentioned above. …

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2007 in the subject American Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: gut, University of Dusseldorf 'Heinrich Heine', 48 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Shakespeare is one of the most analysed and 'criticised' poet in the historyof literature. Why Shakespeare The answer is easy. He is not only mostanalysed but also the most popular dramatist that has ever existed.Shakespeare's drama has been fascinating his audience and readers through thecenturies. The plots of Shakespeare's drama seem to be simple, dealing withhuman and social themes like love, marriage, murder, intrigue, complot andrevenge. On a first sight, they remember us of a good and entertainingHollywood Film. But is this all what Shakespeare has to say through hisdrama Did he really intend to write commercial plays, without giving a deepersense to his literary work I don't think so. I think Shakespeare achievedthrough his 'simple' plots to get deeply into the minds and souls of hisaudience, in order to make them conceive the complexity of their own lives andfeelings. I do not intend to find out his personal message in the drama or tointerpret his intentions. I will rather concentrate on his work and try to find outwhat kind of message Shakespeare's comedy transmitted to his audience andabove all to his experienced readers, better said, to his literary critics. My papershall reveal the complexity and the deep psychological meaning ofShakespeare's comedy. Returning to my first question why Shakespeare Iwould like to answer it, by quoting one of my favourite critics, Northrop Frye:'For all that has been written about it, Shakespearean comedy still seams to me widely misunderstood and underestimated, and my main thesis, that the four romances are the inevitable and genuine culmination of the poet's achievement, is clearly less obvious to many than it is to me.' 1I consider Frye's assumption on Shakespearean comedy the adequate answer tomy question. In this paper I intend to seek the deep sense of A MidsummerNight's Dream and The Tempest, by posting them in a mirror of changing critical approaches, beginning with the mythological view, continuing with thepolitical and new critical perspective and ending with my personal notes. Mymain purpose in this paper is to demonstrate that Shakespeare's comedy doesnot only have a delighting function but also exercises a deep psychologicalimpact on the old and new generations. In my opinion he was not only a geniusof the drama, but also an initiator of the renaissance of mythical and archaicvalues in the modern world. …
