Abstract:
On September 4 – 6, 1984, Moscow hosted the first round-table meeting of British and Soviet writers, which was substantiated by the emergent thawing in foreign policy relations between the countries. The goal of this article is to examine the process of organizing and hosting the writers’ conference, as well as give assessment to its contribution to the development of Anglo-Soviet cultural cooperation during the Cold War. The research methodology is founded on the concept of cultural diplomacy, as well as the principle of historicism and systematicity, which allowed analyzing the available archival materials, publications, and reminiscences of the participants. Having examined the Great Britain-U.S.S.R. Association, the author gives special attention to the perception of this event by the British side. The article traces the transformation of attitude of the British authors towards their Soviet colleagues and the Soviet literary process overall. The round table participants expressed different opinion on the role of the writer and the degree of their social responsibility, as well as on moralization in the novel. In the course of discussion, the Soviet side often turned to the topic of peacekeeping, while the British side defended the autonomy of the writer and the right to social criticism. The conclusion is made that despite the divergence of opinions, both British and Soviet writers found the discussion productive,  and positively assessed the results of the conference. Thanks to the efforts of organizers and the objective “tiredness” from using cultural events for propaganda purposes, the first British-Soviet Round Table of Writers has fulfilled its mission, becoming an important platform for intercommunication.

Abstract:
At first glance it would seem difficult to find more different writers than Dostoevsky, who knew the depths of suffering and poverty, and Oscar Wilde - esthete, hedonist, dandy, sybarite. And yet it was Wilde, who, one of the first in Great Britain, appreciated Dostoevsky and outlined the main parameters of his perception in British culture in the future. Life and Dostoevsky led the British writer to understanding of the most important truths, and this revelation brought new meanings into English literature.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research is to deconstruct the main character of Frankenstein novel. This is qualitative research with deconstructive approach. Deconstruction is a method of reading texts which shows that in every text there is always an absolute presumption. Deconstruction is used to find other meanings hidden in a text. The steps taken by the writer in deconstructing Frankenstein's novel are describing Victor's character, finding binary opposition in the character then deconstructing Victor's character. The results are the portrayal of Victor after deconstruction that Victor himself was the cause of all the chaos done by his creatures. Victor's ambitions that are too deep in science make him a different person, from a good character to very selfish and cruel.Keywords: Deconstructive, Main Character, Binary Opposition, Frankenstein Novel

Abstract:
Novels by the Nobel Prize winner in literature 2017 K. Ishiguro are analyzed chronologically, from the first novel A Pale View of Hills (1982) to the latest one The Buried Giant (2015). As the article shows, the author, who represents two cultural traditions, the Japanese and the British ones, reflects this quality in his works. The writer himself states that his works were mainly formed by the European literary tradition and, consequently, his novel The Remains of the Day has become a concentrated study of Englishness, one of the most vivid in contemporary British literature. Experimenting with traditional literary forms, Ishiguro uses the stream-of-conscience technique, elements of science fiction, fantasy, detective genres, but each of his novels is unique and is characterized by deep overtones. Some constant elements of the writer’s works are discussed: unreliable narrators, the opposition of memory and history, the special role of children and of old people in his novels, the significant role of periods before and after historic events that are omitted in his novels, and recognizable language and style – compact, reserved and precise.

Abstract:
The article demonstrates that the works by William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) are «a real storehouse» of Western ideas about Russia, the focus of British stereotypes of Russians, because he was not an «elite», but a «minor» writer - a brilliant witty storyteller and a «copier of life». It is evident that young and mature Maugham perceived the Russian world in a book of stories «Ashenden, or the British agent» (1928), in a novel «Christmas Holiday» (1939), in «A Writer’s Notebook» through the prism of Dostoevsky’s novels, he argued with the Russian writer and in a way was even obsessed with him. But when Maugham became old he lost his attraction to the Russian world.

Nixon, Laura Elizabeth. "The 'British' Carmen Sylva : recuperating a German-Romanian writer." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2014. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/13946/.

Full text
Abstract:
Carmen Sylva (1843-1916), a German princess and the first Queen of Romania, was a well-known royal figure and a prolific writer. Under this pseudonym, she published around fifty volumes in a wide variety of genres, including poetry, short stories and aphorisms. During her lifetime she was a regular feature in the British periodical press and visited Britain on numerous occasions. Widely reviewed – both celebrated and condemned for her ‘fatal fluency’ – Sylva’s work became marginalised after her death and has yet to be fully recovered. She has only recently received critical attention in her native Germany and has yet to be recuperated within British literary culture. This thesis will examine the reasons behind Sylva’s current obscurity as well as presenting the grounds for her reassessment. It will establish her connection to Britain, markers of which can still be found in its regional geography, as well as the scope of her literary presence in British periodicals. It will draw comparisons between Sylva and her contemporaries and will examine her contribution to fin-de-siècle British literary culture, analysing her short stories in order to detail her engagement with the ‘Woman Question’. This focus places Sylva at the centre of contemporary discussions and her often conflicting responses to such issues further our understanding of the complexity of nineteenth-century literary debates. In reassessing Sylva, this study will address broader notions surrounding the short story, popular fiction, and women’s writing, in order to question both current and contemporary attitudes to literature.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the ways in which four different reception areas shape the reception of Jeanette Winterson's work. These reception areas are the academic, the writer's own view on her work and its reception, the mass media and university syllabi. The analyses of these areas explore how the reception of Winterson's work is influenced by readers' negotiation with interpretations of her work within and among these kinds of reception.

Abstract:
La tesis doctoral es un estudio de la obra literaria de novelistas contemporáneas británicas pertenecientes a la diáspora africana, caribeña y asiática que emigró al Reino Unido en la segunda mitad del siglo XX. El corpus literario bajo análisis engloba las siguientes autoras y obras: Andrea Levy, Small Island (2005), Monica Ali, Brick Lane (2001), Zadie Smith, White Teeth (2000), Diana Evans, 26ª (2006) y Jackie Kay, Trumpet (1999). La tesis analiza la representación y codificación espacial en la obra de dichas autoras partiendo de los postulados teóricos que consideran el espacio como constructo social que esconde implicaciones de clase, raza y género (Lefebvre, 2005, Soja 1996, Massey, 1996, 2005). La tesis estudia el espacio en los tres niveles en los que se encuentra operativa la relación cuerpo-identidad-espacio (Keith and Pile, 1993). Estos tres niveles son, por un lado, el espacio individual de cuerpo, por otro, la familia y la comunidad y, por último la sociedad. El estudio de estas obras literarias da cuenta de la necesidad de negociar nuevas formas de entender la identidad y la realidad espacial británica, a la vez que pone de manifiesto su carácter multicultural.

Abstract:
This thesis study followed six MA in English Language Teaching/Applied Linguistics students as they started out on their one-year programmes at the University of Reading, UK. They came from various academic, professional and national backgrounds. One was a native speaker of English; the other five were not. The study takes an ethnographic approach in exploring how these mature students learned to meet writing requirements in this context (which were within the essayist tradition of academic literacy), both as individual case studies and as a group. The focus was on three Terml writing assignments which all students had in common. However, the research sought to contextualise first term experiences in the framework of the whole year of study. I therefore interviewed these students about their writing five times in the year, including after submission of their year-end dissertations, and contacted them again a year later for post-course insights. The study explored how they responded to pre-submission advice from tutors and their reactions to and use of summative feedback provided. It also examined assignment briefings and documentation, students' meetings with personal tutors and my interviews with module tutors, as well as feedback on outlines and on the three assignments, and the assignments themselves. Although the students were, of course, six unique individual cases, themes emerged from this study of their development as academic writers in this context. These include the influence of background (such as academic, professional, discipline, linguistic), personal characteristics (eg expectations and approach to learning), and the role of literacy brokers.

Abstract:
AbstractAs Christopher Hilliard has noted, the 1890s and 1900s saw in Britain the development of a flourishing “literary advice industry” of which the “first goods were guidebooks” (Hilliard in To Exercise Our Talents: The Democratization of Writing in Britain. Harvard University Press, London and Cambridge, MA, 2006, p. 20). Examples include Arnold Bennett’s How to Become an Author (1903), Walter Besant’s The Pen and the Book (1899), E. H. Lacon Watson’s Hints to Young Authors (1902), and Leopold Wagner’s How to Publish a Book (1898). As this chapter will explore, these authors’ guides mix technical advice on the rules of fiction with practical advice on the workings of the publishing industry and the financial side of authorship—and in so doing, I shall argue, both reflect and help contribute to dramatic changes in public understandings of the nature of authorship and the relationship between the writer and marketplace.

Цель данной статьи - подчеркнуть актуальность и потенциал литературной ономастики, использование и роль имен в литературных произведениях, а также аспекты именования, которые играют важную роль в сложности и привлекательности художественной литературы. В качестве примера рассматривается новое исследование в области имен из журнала ономастики о том, что делают имена собственные в Средиземье Толкина такими подходящими. This article discusses the major trends in scholarship about linguistic onomastic processes of construing names, the semantic standing of proper names, and the probable consequences names have on readers. The aim of this paper is to emphasize the relevance and potential of literary onomastics, the employment and role of names in literary works, and naming aspects that are instrumental in the complexity and appeal of the fiction. As examples, we examine a new research in Names from the Journal of Onomastics about what makes the proper names of Tolkien’s Middle-Earth so fitting.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Fatigue crack growth thresholds ΔKth are provided by several fitness-for-service (FFS) codes. When evaluating cracked components subjected to cyclic loading, maximum stress intensity factor Kmax and/or minimum stress intensity factor Kmin are required. However, the definitions of the thresholds ΔKth under negative stress ratio R are not clearly written, except for BS (British Standards) 7910. In addition, the ΔKth are given by constant values under negative R. Fatigue crack growth rates under negative stress ratio is recommended to use maximum stress intensity factor Kmax by ASTM (American Society of Testing and Materials) E 647, because of the Kmax being close to crack driving force. Therefore, it deems that the ΔKth under negative R seems to be Kmax. This paper shows that the Kmax converted by the ΔKth are not constant values under negative R based on the survey of experimental data. The Kmax decreases with decreasing the stress ratio R. Therefore, the ΔKth for the FFS codes are less conservative. As experimental data under negative stress ratio R were taken by Kmax – Kmin, the definition of the threshold ΔKth is benefit to use Kmax – Kmin, instead of Kmax.

Full text
Abstract:
This research examined the freight demand forecast for a new short railway linking the Okanagan Valley in southern British Columbia to American railways in the South (Orville), and to Canadian railways in the North (Kamloops). An Origin-Destination (O-D) table including local, domestic and international demands for the Okanagan freight rail was developed based on available surveys and observed truck freight data. In the absence of data to derive utility functions, the current mode share for each commodity in the base year as well as current elasticities between truck and rail was used to forecast the mode share in the future year. Rail assignment techniques are among the forgotten problems of freight demand forecasting due to their complexities, including: 1) written and unwritten practices of the rail industry, and 2) cost functions that are classically employed in truck or auto assignments. In this study, a comprehensive review was conducted on the rail freight demand assignment techniques. A new assignment procedure was introduced by combining the available mathematical choice models and new initiatives of the Canadian government toward rail industry. Finally, the predicted share of freight rail was assigned to the rail network using three methods, which provided three independent freight demand forecasts. The mid-range forecast was selected as the freight demand for the Okanagan Valley while two others (low/high) were used for sensitivity analysis.
