1. Involving the Reader : A Narratological View of Elizabethan Prose Fiction
Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för konst, kultur och kommunikation (K3)Sammanfattning : This research was conducted to see why some scholars have decided that Elizabethan prose fiction is no longer of value to a modern audience; this essay will apply narratological analyses and theory to examine Elizabethan prose fiction, noting where and how these works build their stories to involve their readers: differently than we would nowadays.

5. Med äran i behåll Gloria och Virtus i Ciceros tal mot Antonius
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för litteratur, idéhistoria och religionSammanfattning : This essay, by applying principles derived from the thought of Quentin Skinner, explores the Roman concepts of gloria and virtus in the prose literature of the late Roman Republic, primarily in the writings of (in order of importance) Cicero, Sallustius and Caesar, with particular attention in the analysis given to Cicero’s orations against Antonius, the Philippics. While the concept of virtus is generally acknowledged to be a national virtue of the Romans, this essay argues that gloria is of paramount importance in the mind of the most prolific prose writer of the late Republic, and that it is viewed by Cicero in his last struggle against Antonius as the desired end above all others, resulting from the exercise of virtus for the benefit of the Republic.
