Abstract:
The article is devoted to the visual and speech genres of Old Tiflis, which are revealed in the visual and verbal texts of famous artists N. Pirosmani, V. Elibekyan and Armenian writer A. Ayvazyan. The carnival spirit of Old Tiflis influenced the visual and verbal signs of the gastronomic infrastructure. The article is written by a semiotic, typological method, as well as an interdiscursive approach (painting, fiction). In addition, Bakhtin’s theory has become a metalanguage for identifying speech genres of urban space. An empirical analysis of the material showed that Pirosmani's paintings we

Abstract:
This paper explores two novellas by Black Caribbean women writers: Crick Crack, Monkey by Trinidadian author Merle Hodge, and Harriet's Daughter by Tobagonian-born M. NourbeSe Philip. In Hodge's work, the protagonist, Tee, must negotiate between two worlds. The first is that of her early home with the rough working-class aunt (Tantie), seemingly chaotic but also full of warmth, humour, and familial love. This is juxtaposed against her new home with her haughty Aunt Beatrice, who advocates colonial values and demands conformity from her niece for Tee to gain acceptance and belonging. In contras

Abstract:
"Editor’s Note: The following article is extracted from a longer account, titled ‘Self under Siege: Identity, Memory and Story – an Alzheimer’s Journal’ (to be published as part of a book, The Long Goodbye, in preparation). Gordon Wheeler describes and reflects upon his Aunt Margaret’s changing mental state over an eight-year period up to her death in 2000. During this time, suffering from Alzheimer’s, Margaret loses the capacity for preserving a coherent self-story. However, she compensates for this with ever more ‘nimble skipping and creative covering’, as Wheeler describes it, confirming th

Abstract:
"The Burney family stood at the centre of cultural life of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century England, and excelled in several forms of artistic expression, especially in writing. Among the manuscripts preserved in the family archive are some collections of juvenilia produced by the children of Charles Rousseau and Esther Burney, Frances Burney’s elder sister. These literary projects helped the young authors to build confidence in their writing, refine their craft, and find a voice.

Abstract:
The Mighty Walzer is the story of a boy who dreams of winning fame, fortune and the adoration of beautiful women, as a table tennis player. He wants to make his life grandiose like all of us. However, it is a pity that he fails. Oliver, the protagonist is not disheartened. Even though he has not struck his fortune, life gives him other riches- the riches of life and growing up itself. Thus, the novel can be seen as the celebration of the trivial processes of growing up. The more we read, the more we realise that the mediocre lives presented in the novel are grandiose in their own ways. Thus, t

There is scant research and literary works on experiences of ordinary people during apartheid though that is changing.

Abstract:
John Charles Burkill, born on 1 February 1900, was the only child of Hugh Roberson Burkill (1867-1951) and Bertha ( née Bourne, 1866-1937). His father came from a family which had farmed in Lincolnshire for generations, whereas his mother came from a background of prosperous farming and building. On neither side was there a strong academic tradition, but Charles was soon to show evidence of intellectual distinction by winning a scholarship to St Paul’s school at the age of 14. There he profited fully from the excellent teaching that the school offered and which was reflected not only by his ma

This article forwards a new way of thinking about pornography, based on the changing work practices of web-based and film/video amateur porn producers and their spectators. Their efforts are not to be confused with individuals who pose for porn sites and simulate sex as glossy “amateurs” – bored housewives, horny freshmen, nasty teen virgins, battered Russian migrants, pregnant mommies, crude aunts or rapist uncles, etc. In most types of commercial porn, amateur roles are scripted, filmed and edited by producers who direct and pay models to enter their stage setups and sex scenes.

Abstract:
In 1924, when Trix was fifty-six years old, she was recalled from exile. Jack, sixty-six years old and in declining health, allowed Trix back into the Fleming home in Edinburgh. She was at first treated as if she were incompetent, but she eventually demonstrated that she was not only capable and coherent, but charming and witty. She nursed but also teased and subtly tortured Jack through his final years of ill health. She mourned the death of her brother in 1936 and the loss of her husband in 1942. With Rudyard’s death, Trix became a valued resource for Kipling biographers. When Jack died, she

Jack Benny’s comedy frequently upended the idea of heterosexual white masculine domination. Jack was portrayed as a struggling employer and a failure as a patriarch whose radio cast constantly get the better of him. The long-lasting comic feud with fellow radio comic Fred Allen demonstrated a playful camaraderie through insult-throwing. As a second-generation immigrant, Benny’s Midwestern Jewish identity seemed much assimilated, although his humorous themes were deeply rooted in Jewish traditions.

Abstract:
Chucky is the product of an interracial union; his mother is Navajo while his father is Black and Mexican. Along with his three siblings, he was placed in the custody of his maternal aunt, Isabelle, because of a very tragic incident. At the age of five, he witnessed his father murder his mother. Despite all the turmoil, Chucky is remarkably well adjusted and level-headed. Unlike many of his peers, he has managed to stay out of any serious trouble. He has chosen to respond to heartache with humor, and he has developed a reputation as a prankster. With his gregarious personality, it is no surpri

The butler, who was now become my friend in the family, informed me with a whisper, that the ‘Squire had already made some overtures to Miss Wilmot, and that her aunt and uncle seemed highly to approve the match.
