Abstract:
This thesis investigates materiality, meanings and the use of three crucial elements, World, Dust, and Daemon in Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials Trilogy. Together, the three novels Northern Lights (1995), The Subtle Knife (1997) and The Amber Spyglass (2000) juxtapose and represent not only Philip Pullman’s counter-interpretation of Biblical representation, Genesis in particular, but also his worries about religious absolutism and story-telling based in Christian belief. As a New Atheist fantasy fiction written to young adult and adult readers, Pullman’s enthusiasm for playing with and mat

Abstract:
This thesis explores the work of Texan painter Alexandre Hogue, and specifically how his 1930s Erosion Series, paintings of wind-ravaged farms during the Dust Bowl, promotes environmental attitudes long before America had a well developed ecological language. It analyzes the Erosion Series in the context of Hogue's personal land ethics and those of his artistic contemporaries, showing that the 1930s series strives to depict the devastation caused by both drought and aggressive farming practices. A comparison of Hogue's work to Regionalist artists like Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood reveals

This mini-dissertation aims to examine the way in which Breyten Breytenbach explores the concepts of home and exile in his novel Memory of Snow and of Dust.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores the ways in which the provocation of fear in the reader of the chanson de geste, conte folklorique, conte merveilleux, the gothic and the nineteenth-century conte fantastique contributes to the formation of individual and collective identity. I begin with an analysis of the epic, the folkloric and the marvellous. Through close readings of selected texts, I identify the mechanisms by which the provocation of fear encourages characters and readers to act according to the goals and ideals of the collective social group. I argue that in these genres the present-day notio
