Abstract:

This article presents an overview of the existing editions of what Freud wrote (works, letters, manuscripts and drafts, diaries and calendar notes, dedications and margin notes in books, case notes, and patient calendars) and what he is recorded as having said (minutes of meetings, interviews, memoirs of and interviews with patients, family members, and followers, and other quotes). There follows a short overview of biographies of Freud and other documentation on his life. It is concluded that a wealth of material is now available to Freud scholars, although more often than not this information is used in a biased and partisan way.

Abstract:

It is necessary to make difference between biography as a history of a person’s life and biography as a retelling of this story made by a professional author. It is this “author’s” biography that is the subject of this article. Turning to biography as a genre, we note that it exists in the environment of other genres and forms: these are various kinds of diaries, chronicles, memoirs, testimonies. It can be based on a collection of interviews, publications from different years, and even correspondence. Among the many biographies, chronicles and biographies of musicians and rock bands, the author selects those in which a bright individuality stands out against the background of parallel and commensurate creative values. The biographies of The Beatles and, in particular, John Lennon, the versatile character of whose creative personality is demonstrated by a vivid example of an “opening” biography, are considered.

Abstract:

“The Politician’s Child” investigates childhoods lived in the public eye of modern British politics, c. 1970s–2000s. It engages with diaries, memoirs, autobiographies, biographies, and newspaper interviews in which former politicians revealed private aspects of their children’s lives in return for a publishing advance on leaving public office. The educational, social, and medical problems that political parents create for their offspring have often been neglected in histories of the family and political life. These are essential to study since they reveal a complex matrix of social and political worlds, which contrast with the public histories of the family that politicians pen.

Abstract:

The article aims at summarizing different activities undertaken to organize and run the first post- war Chopin piano competition. It is an attempt to collect facts, accounts and memories concerning actions initiated by Polish music culture environment after the Second World War. The author fo- cuses on a detailed description of the organization and proceedings of the 4th International Piano Competition, making use of information that has existed in independent sources so far. The article uses diaries, biographies, autobiographies, private notes, interviews with representatives of Polish culture, archive films and documentaries belonging to the Polish Film Chronicle. Press excepts were not used on purpose, as most press information was included in the aforesaid bibliography entries. The analyzed sources let us conclude that the organization of the first post-was Chopin piano competition in Warsaw was an event requiring both the engagement of all state institutions and personal contribution of musicians and music teachers. The author considers such a detailed historical-cultural account justified and necessary, especially in 2020, the 210th birth anniversary of Frederic Chopin, the year in which the 18th Frederic Chopin International Piano Competition was supposed to take place.

Abstract:

The article is dedicated to the problem of keeping family records by several generations of the peasant family. In the course of the study, diaries and biographies of Borisov-Vityazev, a good kin representing the local lore tradition of Solvychegodsk locality of Vologda Province (nowadays, Krasnoborsk district of Arkhangelsk Region) have been examined. When studying the content of the materials, the general subject and genre features of the recordings were distinguished. The conducted research allowed to establish that within one peasant family, diaries with exclusively practical significance had eventually passed into the category of memoirs with reflexive and ethical principles – personal notes had replaced the pragmatic function of diaries.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to describe how linguistic biographies and photographic art complement each other in an exhibition. The exhibition was part of a project on biographies that were collected through conducting interviews, and some of the interviewees were subsequently photographed. The photos and written summaries that were based on the interviews were displayed together. This article discusses how photos are interpreted in relation to biographies. The data consist of the learning diaries of the students who visited the exhibition, interviews with the photographer and with some of those who were photographed. The linguistically oriented content analysis reveals that the interpretations of the photos were predominantly based on where the photographs were taken as well as on the appearance of the person in the photo. The informants also connected their observations to the use of languages and language attitudes of the interviewees who were photographed. In addition, the article analyses how the photographer discusses his choices of place and setting during the process of constructing linguistic biographies.

Book review of: The great adventure ends: New Zealand and France on the Western Front, edited by Nathalie Phillippe, Chris Puglsey, John Crawford & Matthias Strohn, Christchurch: John Douglas Publishing, 2013. 424 pp. ISBN 9780987666581This volume is another shot in the bombardment of books about the Great War that marks the 2014 centenary of the start of the ‘war to end all wars’. This literary big push includes novels, graphic novels, histories, biographies, memoirs and diaries written for specialists and the general public. An early publication to pop over the parapet, this collection offers a diverse set of articles that highlight some not so well-known aspects of New Zealand’s involvement on the Western Front during the 1914-18 war. The varied articles in The Great Adventure Ends reflect both the book’s origins in a conference and the variety of ways in which World War I is written about.

Abstract:

Thematic justification of the study of foreign languages is more obvious in connection with the globalization of the world, the exchange of information and the transformation of international cooperation of states into a real necessity. The novelty of the research is dictated by the insignificant circle of historiography on the problem under consideration and the emergence of new sources such as memoirs, archival materials, and diaries of participants in the events. The subject of this research is the role of foreign languages, which was realized by the leadership of the USSR in the 1930s, the training of military linguists and their role during the Great Patriotic War. In the system of public education conditions were created for the training of personnel and the material base. The research methodology includes historicism and objectivity, which make it possible to show the training of specialists in the formation and development, the contribution of military linguists to propaganda against the enemy during the war, to evaluate the optics of peoples’ perception of each other. The prosopographic method made it possible to highlight specific biographies of military linguists, whom fate brought to the forefront of historical events, whether it was the translation of the testimony of a prisoner of war German officer, on whose recognition depended the fate of a local operation or a large-scale offensive, to participation in the meetings of the Nuremberg Trials of the highest political and military leaders of the Third Reich, which has been studied and evaluated by historians and jurists for 65 years. We have used official documents, memoirs, notes and diaries of military linguists of the war years, archival documents.

Abstract:

Chapter 5 adopts the framework suggested by Partha Chatterjee for the study of popular culture wherein the critical focus is on disciplinary practices rather than underlying beliefs or concepts. Therefore, it continues the previous chapter’s reflections on affect and embodiment through an anthropology of film-making and film-screening practices. Drawing on biographies and memoirs of film-makers and actors as well as personal interviews it tracks the debates within the disciplinary field of cinema and brings into view the diversity of perceptions and changing production and performance practices when it comes to representing divinity and religiosity. It also pays special attention to the unique modes of publicity and tailor-made marketing strategies adopted for these religious genres.

Abstract:

The introduction outlines a genealogy of how cinema and other media created new cultural contexts and new cultural subjects in the twentieth century India, thereby transforming religion and producing the hybrid figure of the citizen–devotee. The first section presents conceptual debates on secularism, citizenship, religion and media, embodiment and affect that frame this study. The second section is a detailed account of the mythological and devotional genres in Indian cinema and the predominant critical frameworks. The third focuses on the history of Telugu cinema tracing the different performative traditions and oral and printed texts that form a basis for these genres. It argues that both cinema technology and new political contexts mediate existing texts and traditions significantly. The final section describes the historical and ethnographic methods adopted in the study and the range of materials—film texts, publicity material, interviews, memoirs, and biographies of film-makers—used.

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter begins with an account of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. It introduces the concept of moral harm to perpetrators of war crimes and others who decline to show mercy to the enemy or civilians. It discusses war stories that arise from propaganda, nationalist literature, heroic myths masquerading as memories, and personal tales told by veterans about uncommon combat experiences. The chapter utilizes stories drawn from diaries and memoirs, interviews, and more casual reminiscences by ordinary people whose humanity was tested in war. The war stories here are about private acts of profound mercy and conscience, especially when no one was looking.

Abstract:

This chapter introduces and summarises the book. It introduces the notion and practice of everyday peace and makes the case for why the hyperlocal level is a legitimate level of analysis. It considers how the everyday peace that occurs at the very local level might be connected to other levels of peace and conflict. The chapter introduces and discusses the sources used by the book, including findings from the Everyday Peace Indicators project, a project on local perceptions of United Nations peacekeeping in Darfur, interviews from Lebanon, and memoirs and personal diaries from World Wars I and II. Three key questions that help shape the book are introduced, questions that recur throughout the book: Is everyday peace really peace? How can everyday peace deal with and confront power? Can everyday peace be scaled up?
