Abstract:
The research deals with the issue of genre hybridization in the novel “Silence – Chronicle of a Killer” written by a contemporary Austrian writer Thomas Raab. An examination of the novel's composition and structure, as a text in motion, has been accomplished in the article. The novel “Silence” is an excellent illustration of how the genre of adventure has been adapted to include elements of science fiction. This novel is a love tale, a rural life saga, a formation narrative, and a psychological thriller all in one. As a fictionalized account of the life of a serial murderer with hypersensitive

Abstract:
At the 2018 San Sebastian Festival the winning film was Entre dos aguas (Isaki Lacuesta, 2018). The Catalan filmmaker constructs a fiction film that, however, is also very much self-referential and biographical and therefore journalistic (all the actors are amateurs who play themselves in the film), and uses a good part of a certain journalistic documentary visual aesthetic. These actors, in turn, had already been protagonists for 12 years before another film by the filmmaker, La leyenda del tiempo (2006). However, the value of Lacuesta’s contribution lies in the fact that these characters pla

This article is a study of Dalit marginalisation, discrimination, isolation and humiliation from the common tradition of life, especially the tragic condition of Dalit women in our Indian society. Dalit literature is about the sufferings of ‘oppressed class”. It also stresses that Dalits are not oppressed class, but oppressed by those who claim themselves as high class. Dalit literature is always marked by revolt and a great struggle of lower caste, against the high class people. Dalit fiction and its literary movement are based on the common ground of social oppression. Exploitation or oppres
