Abstract:

This article explores the treatment of the face in the work of Palermo filmmakers Daniele Ciprì and Franco Maresco and proposes several considerations regarding the stark nudity of the face, its rawness and strength, and the relationships that the two filmmakers establish between face and mask. Through an analysis of the cinematic fiction of Maresco and Ciprì – Lo zio di Brooklyn (The Uncle from Brooklyn) (1995), Totò che visse due volte (Totò Who Lived Twice) (1998) and Il ritorno di Cagliostro (The Return of Cagliostro) (2003) – as well as their television work on Cinico TV (1989–96), this a

Abstract:

Abstract Anna Frajlich was exiled from her homeland in 1969 and arrived in the United States a year later. This article traces through her poetry and prose the arc of Frajlich's residence in New York, from wary foreigner, residing in windswept Brooklyn, up to her present status as retired Columbia University faculty member who has made her home on Manhattan's Upper East Side. In other words, from her earliest poem about Brooklyn in 1973 to poems in which she describes events from her apartment on the Upper East Side, published in early 2021.

Abstract:

Abstract This essay explores how Paule Marshall engages issues of leftist politics and homosexuality in “Brooklyn,” her only fiction set during the Cold War. On the surface, this novella, the second in Marshall’s 1961 collection Soul Clap Hands and Sing, is a story of sexual harassment that, she has explained, was based on an experience she had at Brooklyn College. Marshall’s boldness in confronting the sexual and racial politics of the 1950s in the story’s depiction of an African American woman’s sexual harassment by her white professor has been noted by many. But less remarked is the fact th

Abstract:

New York City parks serve as magical sites of discovery and recovery in speculative fiction for young readers, which has gone through a process of modernization, shifting from “universal” and “generic” narratives with repetitive features (derived from Western European folklore) to a sort of “specialization” that emphasizes the particular cultural practices and histories of racially diverse urban populations. Ruth Chew uses city spaces like the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and Prospect Park to engage young readers in the magical adventures of white, middle-class children. Zetta Elliott’s African Ame

Abstract:

This paper conducts a comparative analysis of two films by internationally renowned directors made within just a few years of each other - Brooklyn-Gusinje by Serbian filmmaker Želimir Žilnik and Close-Up by Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami. Despite originating from different continents and cultures, these two films share a series of nearly identical directorial approaches, presenting stories where authentic documentary footage resembles fictional form, while the fictional elements in both films appear as documentary records. By analyzing both films, this paper will examine the fundamental pr

His nonfiction—In an Antique Land(1992),Dancing in Cambodia and at Large in Burma(1998), andCountdown(1999)—rests on a PhD in social anthropology from Oxford.

Abstract:

Drawing on various theories and approaches, from its application to fiction to its socio-cultural dimensions and presence within communication, this study considers Colm Tóibín’s use of silence as a key narrative element and aesthetic practice in Long Island (2024), inviting some comparisons with its prequel, Brooklyn (2009). As shall be explained, silence operates on different levels in Long Island. Thanks to Tóibín’s tightly controlled release of information, silence becomes crucial to plot development and suspense, and vividly recreates the tensions between concealment and revelation. Silen

Abstract:

Although American sleuth fiction became popular in the late nineteenth century, the first clerical fictional protagonist appeared in 1910 with G. K. Chesterton’s Father Brown series. More than five decades later, in the mid-1960s, a rabbi-sleuth protagonist debuted in Harry Kemelman’s weekday Rabbi Small series (Friday the Rabbi Slept Late, Saturday the Rabbi Went Hungry, etc.). Following in Kemelman’s footsteps, several authors claim to have been influenced by his works. Rabbi-sleuths, male and female, are found across the denominational spectrum in Judaism: Orthodox, Conservative, Reconstruc

McNamara, Amy. Lovely, Dark and Deep. New York: Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 2012. Print. Lovely, Dark and Deep is Brooklyn-based poet and photographer Amy McNamara’s debut novel. The title, well-chosen and from the last stanza of Robert Frost’s poem Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening – The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. captures the main character’s mindset perfectly as she distances herself, both physically and emotionally, from her friends and family after a tragic car accident.

Abstract:

In November 2015 the progressive rock band, Coheed and Cambria, released their latest album and art-book, both titled The Color before the Sun (Color) (2015). This album deviates from their previous six releases by explicitly using a biographical frame for the art-book, the album, and their paratexts. This is a divergence from the band’s concept album approach, a transmedia storyworld, The Amory Wars (TAW) (2002-17), which fictionalised the life experiences of Claudio Sanchez, the band’s lead singer. When scholars discuss transmedia they often refer to fantastic and speculative fictions, such

Introduction "Barbie has a great day every day, but Ken only has a great day if Barbie looks at him", states the narrator in Barbie (2023). Directed by Greta Gerwig, the film not only claimed the title of the highest-grossing film of the year but also prompted its audience to reconsider a character they had previously mostly overlooked; another one of Barbie’s many accessories: Ken. Ken's identity as Barbie's companion is fundamentally dependent upon the presence and recognition of his more prominent female counterpart. This highlights Ken's secondary role, where he serves as a supporting figu
