Ahora bien, esta imagen socio-cultural e histórica, que emerge del acto de exploración que Irving realiza en la Alhambra, se concretiza como un tejido de imágenes, es decir, como imágenes textuales.

Abstract:

As representatives of "an earlier stage of civilization," Native Americans in early nineteenth-century literature were integral in conversations of race relations, cultural development, and anthropological strata. They were a baseline of humanity against which more "civilized" nations of the world marked their progress, determined the value of their own cultural advancements, and proclaimed their superiority (Flint 1). They were an object of continuing fascination for Americans and Britons seeking to reinvent themselves in the aftermath of war and revolution, but their image in these nations w

Cette étude se place dans le champ des études transatlantiques afin d’analyser les modalités selon lesquelles les romances historiques ont constitué une réponse aux exigences lancinantes de doter les États-Unis d’une littérature nationale dans la première moitié du XIXe siècle. Créé en Grande-Bretagne par Walter Scott, ce genre est repris et adapté par ses contemporains américains, en particulier James Fenimore Cooper, Washington Irving et Catharine Maria Sedgwick. Dans un premier temps, nous avons étudié la réception de Walter Scott et de ses Waverley Novels et leur impact sur le marché du li

Abstract:

The Great Plains are prevalent among the literature of the nineteenth century, but receive hardly a single representation among the landscapes of the Hudson River School. This is certainly surprising; the public was teeming with interest in the Midwest and yet the principal landscape painters who aimed to represent and idealize a burgeoning America offered hardly a glance past the Mississippi River. This geographical silence is the result of a tension between idealistic and empirical representations of the land, one echoed in James Fenimore Cooper’s The Prairie, Washington Irving’s A Tour on t

Abstract:

Confronting the needs of his personal economics. Washington Irving explored the relationship between credit and dis-credit within his writing. With an emphasis on textual analysis, I investigate the effect upon his work of this attempt to create a 'creditable narrative' - both credible as story and capable of functioning satisfactorily in the market. In the search for a satisfactory form he appropriated various narrative voices and styles. I argue that the literary currency introduced into circulation by Irving in the first half of the nineteenth century should be recognised as an important me

Full text

Abstract:

This dissertation is an examination of the interiority of American authorship from 1815–1866, an era of political, social, and economic instability in the United States. Without a well-defined historical narrative or an established literary lineage, writers drew upon death and the American landscape as tropes of unity and identification in an effort to define the nation and its literary future. Instead of representing nationalism or collectivism, however, the authors in this study drew on landscapes and death to mediate the crises of authorial displacement through what I term "xenotopia," stra

This thesis also uses the method of comparative analysis to discuss the translation of vocabulary and some phrases, especially when the sentences and phrases are related to humor and other related elements. This thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter talks about the author’s motivation, purpose and method of the research. The second chapter is lit
