    Life on the land : the interrelationship between identity and community in the Irish fiction of Maria Edgeworth, William Carleton and Charles Lever

    No full text
    This thesis examines and evaluates the response made by three nineteenth century Irish writers of fiction to the most pressing social problem of their time, namely: How might life on the land be firmly established and maintained? The three writers concerned — Maria Edgeworth, William Carleton and Charles Lever — are shown to possess a common artistic vision, which is preserited as an answer to the question posed. The answer consists of a demonstration of how the resources of an enabling individual must blend with the requirements of life on the land as it is. By way of introduction, the significance of the theme for both the literary and socio—political contexts of the period (1800-1872) is described, and the problems of dealing with-nineteenth century Irish fiction — problems concerned with its status in the national cultural heritage, its variety and its artistic characteristics — are outlined. The four Irish novels of Maria Edgeworth are given a special status in her overall output, and her handling of the theme in them is considered as the prototype of her successors' manner of dealing with it. Carleton and Lever are taken as portraying the Edgeworth model under stress. Carleton's work is represented by a selection of pieces from his Traits and Stories of the Irish Peasantry; Lever's by three novels from the 1850's and '60's. All three writers are located in their contemporary cultural milieux, and their individual treatments of the theme are described and compared. In conclusion, a general characterisation of the type of fiction produced by the trio is offered, and a basis for its artistic relationship to Irish fiction of more recent times is rehearsed. The thesis facilitates a new periodisation of the history of nineteenth century Irish fiction. It also offers a revised conception of a tradition, of Irish fiction. These are the contributions it makes to knowledge of the subject treated

    General view, looking southeast, showing the chapel and bell tower; "The Bishop's School is a private college preparatory Episcopalian day school located in La Jolla. Bishop's was founded in 1909. Originally it was a boarding school for girls only. The earliest parts of the campus were designed by architect Irving Gill. The current tower building was designed by Carleton Monroe Winslow, a replacement for the original Gill tower. The elements that are designated historic include Bentham Hall (Irving Gill, 1910), Scripps Hall (Irving Gill, 1910-1911), Gilman Hall (Irving Gill and Louis Gill, 1916), St. Mary's Chapel (Carleton Winslow, 1916), The Tower (Carleton Winslow, 1930), Wheeler J. Bailey Library (Carleton Winslow, 1935). The style owes a major debt to Spanish architecture in California as well as the Arts and Crafts Movement.

    La présente thèse s’inscrit en droite ligne dans le paradigme sociolinguistique du contact des langues. Elle consacre une place de choix à l’acquisition de la morphologie du FL2 dans un espace anglophone. Son intérêt se focalise sur le contexte d’acquisition institutionnelle que constitue le régime pédagogique d’immersion française à la canadienne. Sa visée consiste à étudier la production morphologique des étudiants inscrits aux cours offerts par le département de français de l’université Carleton (Ottawa-Canada). Il est principalement question de déterminer à quel degré la production orale de ces étudiants est fortement influencée par l’anglais qui est leur langue maternelle

    William Carleton, the Writer as Witness

    No full text
    William Carleton (1794-1869), was the first significant Irish writer to emerge from the Gaelic speaking peasant world. He was an artful storyteller, fluent in Irish and English, who merged the techniques and themes of his native oral tradition with those of English prose. Two stories which illustrate Carleton 's merits as a writer are «The Battle of the Factions» and «Wildgoose Lodge». The former is an excellent piece of satire ; the latter, a gothic tale of tribal murder and revenge. In both stories Carleton bears witness to the violent, politicized world of pre-famine Ireland. He has generated considerable interest among the Northern writers, Seamus Heaney, Benedict Kiely and John Montague.William Carleton (1794-1869) fut le premier écrivain irlandais d'importance à sortir du monde des paysans qui parlent le gaélique. Il était fin conteur, maniant également irlandais et anglais, et amalgamant les techniques et les thèmes de sa tradition orale native avec celles de la prose anglaise. Deux contes qui illustrent les mérites de Carleton en tant qu'écrivain sont «The Battle of the Factions» et «Wildgoose Lodge». Le premier est une excellente satire ; le deuxième, un conte «gothique» d'un meurtre tribal et de vengeance. Dans ces deux contes Carleton témoigne du monde violent et politisé de l'Irlande avant la famine. Il a intéressé considérablement les écrivains du Nord, Seamus Heaney, Benedict Kiely and John Montague.Waters Maureen. William Carleton, the Writer as Witness.
