Abstract:

The insights from studies on self-identity construction in writing have encouraged linguistics scholars to continuously explore the presence of writers’ identity in writing. Nevertheless, due to arguments that question whether second language writers construct their identity in writing as well since they are still in tension between fulfilling the writing’s expectation and their English proficiency, a particular study that explores second language writing identity is needed. This study, therefore, was conducted to explore how second language writers construct their identity, particularly in ac

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.

Thus, one can see why, in the autobiographies/memoirs by many Kenyan authors born before independence, the latter also deal with this period of their country’s history.

In fact, Zweigs changing British refugee status, exile activities and, in particular, seismographic delineation of the Zeitgeist in Europe represent additional chapters of Jewish history as well as literary history.

Abstract:

Writers and publishers have traditionally shared close working relationships, but few publishers have had such a long and formative relationship with a writer as Jon Appleton had with the British novelist, short-story writer and teacher Jan Mark. Jon began corresponding with Jan when he was a child in Australia, and as we’ll hear, Jan was instrumental in his ambition to become a publisher, an ambition which he fulfilled when he moved to England in the 1990s. A tired old cliché warns us against meeting our heroes, but from the 1990s until Jan’s death in January 2006, Jon and Jan remained close

Abstract:

1819 is the year of the British â€œfounding of Singapore.â€ Early in that year Sir Stamford Raffles signed a preliminary treaty with the Temenggung of Johor permitting the British to set up a trading post on the island (Turnbull 1). By 1824, the request for a trading post had grown into a treaty through which the British claimed control over the whole of Singapore. 1819 is also the title of the English translation of the novel by the major Singapore Malay writer Isa Kamari on that same series of events (Malay: Duka Tuan Bertakhta, Sadly You Rule, 2011). In that book, Raffles, the Temenggung a

E. M. Forster's immersion in the thriving community of european writers and artists in alexandria increased his confidence as a writer; it also mitigated the social alienation he had experienced on his arrival in Egypt in 1915 to volunteer with the Red Cross. His theatrical sketch “Pericles in Paradise” (1918), published here for the irst time, is populated by characters modeled on the Alexandrian elite that fostered his sense of belonging. In addition, it bears the mark of a privileged position Forster himself was uneasy about: that of an En glishman navigating a city under British rule and r

Abstract:

Notwithstanding the fact that the Anglo-Irish writer Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu was one of the most popular writers of the British Victorian era, his name and most of his works are not well-known to a common reader. The present research investigates how the author inventively modifies traditional Gothic elements and penetrates them into human’s consciousness. Such Le Fanu’s metamorphoses and innovations make the artistic world of his prose more realistic and psychological. As a result, the article presents a comparative literary study of Le Fanu’s text manipulations which seem to lead to the crea

Abstract:

The chaotic period of the American Revolution engaged many writers on both sides of the Atlantic arguing for and against the claims of the American colonists. One of the most popular and effective statements of the British position regarding the rebellion emerged from James Macpherson, poet of Ossian, historian, and government writer. As an accomplished literary talent in the service of politics, Macpherson wrote the pamphlet, The Rights of Great Britain Asserted against the Claims of America (1775), designing a persuasive appeal to the British public for preserving order and supporting the Mo

Postcolonial literature views the British Empire of the nineteenth century as unique in human history and literary products for it provides writers with different subjects that deal with the idea of how to resurrect the colonized identity even after getting liberation. Postcolonial literature seems to label literature written by people living in countries formerly colonized by other colonized and other colonial powers as British. Such literature and particularly novel, emerged to focus on social, moral, and cultural influences and their interrelation with the impact of English existence upon s

Kazuo Ishiguro is a British author of Japanese descent who has established himself globally as an award-winning writer of bestselling books. This article deals with the hybridity of the author, who is both Japanese and English, a popular writer who stirs reader emotions but is at the same time respected by critics. The article begins by addressing the ‘Japaneseness’ in Ishiguro’s work that is both obvious and skilfully concealed. In the second part, the article examines the reception of Ishiguro’s work by Slovenian readers and discusses potential reasons for their seeming lack of response.
