Abstract:

This article deals with the topic of anonymous extortion letters. Anonymous extortion letters are a challenge for linguists and criminal intelligence services and raise a whole range of questions that ultimately allow a creation of the psycholinguistic portrait of the possible author/-perpetrator. One of these questions concerns the emotional layer of the anonymous letter and the way anonymous authors express their emotions in language. This article describes a specific type of speech genre, which is anonymous extortion letter and analyses, in short, emotions in language. The last part presents the author’s own research, focusing on the characteristics of simulated and falsified extortion letters in the Dutch and Polish languages.

Abstract:

This article presents a hypothetical series of letters from an anonymous social work student at Flinders University describing their learning. The student is writing to Charles–Louis de Sécondat, Baron de la Br ède et de Montesquieu, in keeping with the Baron’s famous, anonymously published Lettres persanes (Persian Letters). The student’s letters highlight the progress of education in general and social work education in particular from the 18th Century to the present time. They illustrate the author’s approach to teaching and learning, and some of her strategies for effectively teaching social planning and social work ethics.Montesquieu wrote his Lettres persanes in 1721 as a vehicle for commenting on life and culture in contemporary France. This paper presents a series of hypothetical letters to Montesquieu from a social work student at Flinders University describing her learning. These letters were presented at the Australian Universities Teaching Committee National Teaching Forum in 2002 to convey the educator’s approach to teaching. While the letters conclude with a peroration in which the educator outlines the conceptual framework underlying her teaching, the article concludes with a reply from ‘Montesquieu’ on the letters and the student’s response.

Abstract:

This paper examined seven anonymous letters written to employees of a high-end grocery store in the Northeastern United States. Written and mailed over a span of five years, the initial letters complained about work issues while the latter ones escalated to include death threats. Under question was whether the letters were written by the same author. As no samples from any suspects were available, a framework for comparative analysis among the source documents was used. This study demonstrated how all seven letters shared similar features when analyzed as letters of complaint

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the analysis of a special genre of «people’s journalism» of the 18th century – a genre of so-called letters placed stealthily that were widely spread in Russia in the fi rst half of the 18th century and have never become the subject of special research. These rare, anonymous, preserved mainly in manuscript form monuments of literature, according to the author, can be rightfully attributed to the genre of fi ction. The article highlights the characteristic genre features of the swept letter, lists various thematic groups of such letters. As the most striking example of works in this genre the author analyses the content of the famous anonymous letter as of 1732, an outstanding work of journalism of the era of Anna Ioannovna, devoted to criticism of the Church heretics and Ernst Johann von Biron. Investigation of the 1732 letter had been conducted in the Secret Chancellery for years and came to nothing. In the text of the letter, heterogeneous in its content, the features of various literary traditions are traced – high book-biblical vocabulary and motifs coming from the traditions of the old believers accusatory and agitation literature. The most likely candidate for authorship of the letter is, according to our hypothesis, the former Director of the fi rst St. Petersburg printing house Mikhail Avramov (1681-1752), a gifted writer and publicist, associate and adherent of Archimandrite Markell Radyshevskiy (†1742), the leader of the conservative Church opposition of the fi rst third of the 18th century.

Abstract:

The lost-letter technique was used to analyze European and American attitudes toward an anonymous American citizen. Analysis of the return rates (55%, range 43 to 76%) for the 270 dropped letters suggested that Europeans and Americans have similar attitudes toward Americans, and these attitudes are not affected by nationality, city size, or recent political change.

Abstract:

The mail I receive is both one of the best and one of the worst things about writing this contribution to Children Australia and other pieces for journals and the broader media. The letters I receive raise a number of questions. Why are abusive letters so often written in red or green ink? Or both? Why do abusive letters use so many CAPITAL LETTERS and exclamation marks?!! Why are abusive letters so often anonymous?

Abstract:

One of the well-known Hungarian military leaders of the Interwar Era, Lieutenant General Vitéz Dr. Kálmán Shvoy (1881–1971) spent most of his life in Szeged and eventually became one of the recognized residents of the city. His “secret diary and memoir” – which partly evokes his military career – made a huge splash in the 1980s and is still heavily referenced today. But who was Kálmán Shvoy actually? How did his military career evolve? What did he accomplish as a soldier that justified his inclusion among the top military leadership of the era? To what extent did his 1919 “Szeged endeavors” and departure – as an officer in the National Army and later as chief of the general staff of higher commands – propel or hinder his advancement? What was his life like after retirement? How did his military – and in part political – career come to an end? Why was he accused of writing anonymous, libellous and defamatory letters, against which he had to defend himself in court? Why was he acquitted of the charges after 1945, at a time when the men of the “criminal justice system” believed that anyone who had “clashed” with the prominent members of the earlier system had ultimately behaved righteously and thus deserved to be praised?

Abstract:

Being so little known, Saull and his trajectory towards Owenite evolution and mankind’s monkey-ancestry has to be tackled by following the money. We look at his bailing and funding of dissidents, leasing of venues, and the company he kept. First among the latter was the notorious Richard Carlile. By exploiting police spy reports, and by identifying an anonymous letter on fossils in Carlile’s Republican as Saull’s, we can see him already embedded in this circle by the mid-1820s. The anti-clerical Carlile re-cycled radical Enlightenment works for British dissidents, but what interests us is his response to evangelical taunts that only the Bible could explain human origins. Initially, following George Toulmin, whose books he reprinted, Carlile was to argue that the universe and humanity were eternal. This was eroded, however, by the knowledge, percolating down to street level, of Baron Cuvier’s unearthing of a progression of fossil animals, which implied origins. We examine what sources the dissidents trusted, what books they were reviving (including the much-maligned Telliamed), and why ‘blasphemous’ texts were favoured. Among the latter were the pirated books of the castigated surgeon William Lawrence and Lord Byron, which were churned out cheaply on back-street hand presses. With self-organizing matter (an idea spreading from republican France), and power lying inside nature, rather than in God’s hands to be dispensed through his priesthood, Saull’s anti-clericals had the justification for their attacks on financially-crippling tithes and intellectually-crippling priestly power.

Abstract:

Abstract This essay considers the dynamics of authorial attribution in early Christian letter writing, including anonymity, orthonymity, and pseudonymity, in the Catholic Letters. The authorial attributions in the Catholic Letters must be interpreted within a broader context. The corpus of the Apostolic Fathers also contains both named and anonymous letters. While the meaning of orthonymity is rather obvious and the meaning of pseudonymity has been investigated in depth, literary anonymity can be explained more precisely than in previous research. First, the anonymity of early Christian letters had a practical precondition. As Galen of Pergamon’s comments on his anonymous texts demonstrate, texts that were designed for students and friends did not need inscriptions with the author’s name since the intended readers knew who the author was. Likewise, personal relationships with their readers allowed the writers of Hebrews and the so-called Johannine Letters to write their texts anonymously. Second, the anonymity of early Christian letters had a programmatic purpose. This can be deduced from the concept of literary anonymity in ancient narratives, where it was much more common. The anonymous authors of the Catholic Epistles and Hebrews wanted to express that they were not the creators of their messages but only witnesses of what they had seen and heard and transmitters of the teaching of Jesus and his apostles.
