Thesis (M.A.L.S.)--State University of New York Empire State College, 2004.

This study's objective is to follow the development and maturation of three characters in contemporary literature in order to gain insight into the process of self-development using Quoyle from The Shipping News by Annie Proulx, Iris Chase Griffen from Margaret Atwood's The Blind Assassin, and Sister John from Lying Awake by Mark Salzman. It presents a discussion of how literature reflects life and why fictional characters can be considered real people. The tools of interpretation used to analyze the characters' life journeys include concepts of the psychology of being by Abraham Maslow and John Welwood, the tale of Cupid and Psyche and its implications in the development of conscious relationship, insights into literature by Carolyn Heilbrun and Ian Watt, and the role of mysticism and epilepsy in contemplative life.
