Exploring the historical perception of the fantasy genre, this thesis examines how it has long been dismissed as inferior literature due to its detachment from reality. It highlights the challenges faced by fantasy writers before the mid-twentieth century, who often had to mask their imaginative tales as travel narratives or dream accounts to gain acceptance. The work critiques the biases against fantasy and argues for its significance in literary discourse, shedding light on its evolution and the changing attitudes towards fantastical storytelling.

The thesis explores the concept of a new Round Table in Gramarye, symbolizing a world without boundaries among nations. It emphasizes the role of culture as a means to achieve unity and connection among diverse groups. The work reflects on the potential for cultural exchange to foster understanding and collaboration, envisioning a future where differences are celebrated rather than dividing. This idealistic vision challenges traditional notions of separation and highlights the importance of inclusivity in a globalized society.

Exploring the intersection of civilization and nature, this paper examines how human instincts, particularly aggression, persist despite societal advancements. It highlights the Edinburgh scandal of 1828-1829, where anatomist Dr. Robert Knox employed criminals to procure corpses, not through grave robbing of the deceased, but by murder for dissection. This chilling case illustrates the dark side of scientific progress, revealing how the quest for knowledge can lead to the exploitation of human life, challenging the moral implications of scientific inquiry.

Set against the backdrop of the 1920s Jazz Age, this analysis explores the themes of economic prosperity and societal change as depicted in the film The Crowd and the novel Manhattan Transfer.

This period of optimism and transformation ultimately culminated in the Wall Street Crash of 1929, marking a dramatic end to the economic boom and altering the American landscape.
