Abstract:
Chuck Palahniuk is the recent American novelist, journalist and essayist. He is known for his transgression fiction. Chuck Palahniuk’s ideas have been described as nihilistic but he has declined this identity and he labeling himself as a romantic writer. His books often focused on temporal end and also include some similar plot twists. His writings mainly focused on the struggles which we faced nowadays due to this growth of techno culture. Palahniuk’s concepts and themes are too strange to believe. He is the man of argument in which he argues the struggles between money and agony. There are some postmodern techniques and odd theories used by him. This article focused Palahniuk’s writing style, techniques, and as well as thematical study of his novels.

Abstract:
The goal of this research is determination of specificity of the image of the heroine in the novel by a contemporary American writer Chuck Palahniuk “Cursed”. The article analyzes such aspects as the inner world of the character, relationship with parents, agemates and society in the two contrasting words: real world, during the lifetime of the heroine, and surreal, in hell, after her death. Detailed description of the character allows seeing two different guises of the heroine, while application of literary analysis allows analyzing the traits of the protagonist and place within the system of artistic world of Chuck Palahniuk’s prose. The paper presents a review of scientific pursuits of the Russian and foreign scholars dealing with the works of Chuck Palahniuk. The novelty of this research consists in determination of dual nature of the image of a teenager reflected in the two-world realm created by C. Palahniuk. The analysis demonstrated that in to contrasting worlds, the image of a teenager transforms and manifests differently. In the real world, it is a modest girl, with multiple feelings of inferiority, who has complicated relationships with parents and surrounding people. In the surreal world, she attains new traits, such as authoritativeness, courage, ability to maintain friendships. The conclusion is made that that Chuck Palahniuk creates two images of the heroine. Paradox lies in the fact that an unsuccessful individual in a real world becomes successful in the afterlife. Practical value of this article is defined by its contribution into the theory of literary image, particularly, future development of the methodology for studying the image of the character in transgressive prose.

Abstract:
O romance Condenada: a vida é curta: a morte é eterna (2013), de Chuck Palahniuk, mantém referências explícitas a diversas produções cinematográficas, em especial com o filme O clube dos cinco (1985), de John Hughes. A protagonista de Palahniuk, Madison Spencer, uma adolescente rica, gorda e mimada, encontra-se no inferno, presa em uma cela imunda. Percebendo que está cercada de outras quatro pessoas também condenadas, cada uma com aptidões e características físicas bem distintas (uma líder de torcida, um jogador de futebol americano, um nerd e um punk), Madison decide que o grupo deve explorar o inferno em busca de uma saída; ao invés de aceitar passivamente a danação eterna. Já a narrativa de Hughes apresenta uma metáfora do inferno. Cinco alunos provenientes de realidades diversas estão de castigo e têm como punição passar o sábado presos na biblioteca escrevendo, cada um, o inventário de suas vidas e, de forma semelhante ao grupo de Madison, também buscam uma escapatória desta funesta realidade. Este estudo comparativo entre essas narrativas está apoiado nas teorias do grotesco de Geoffrey Harpham e Margaret Miles que defendem os seguintes recursos pictóricos: caricatura, inversão e hibridização. Sob essa óptica, pode-se inferir que a narrativa de Palahniuk se espelha na versão fílmica de Hughes. Enquanto um enfoca uma representação do inferno, na qual a figura do demônio chefe é desempenhada pelo diretor da escola, o outro apresenta o inferno per se, chefiado por um Satã que, como o diretor da escola, quase nunca está presente.

<p><em>Abstract - </em><strong>This research entitled “Middle Class Rebellion through the Main Characters in Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club” analyses the portrayal of the Middle Classes which is depicted through the main characters. These characters are undertaking a Rebellion towards the system of Capitalism that is depicted in the novel Fight Club. The theory used in this research is the theory of the intrinsic element of Characterization by M.H. Abrams and the theory Capitalism by Karl Marx which includes the theory of Alienation and the Struggle of Social Classes. This research focuses on the portrayal of how Middle Classes undertake their Rebellion which is depicted through the main characters in the novel Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. This research has found that the two main characters are a depiction of the Middle Class and the Working Class. They rebel against Capitalism by doing small acts of vandalism which escalates into blackmail. The findings are that the real characteristics of modern society of the middle class can be seen such as consumerism, restless life towards insomnia and workers who identify themselves as not workers.</strong></p><p><strong><em>Keywords - </em></strong><em>Middle Class, Rebellion, Social Class, Marxism, Capitalism</em></p>

Abstract:
The 1996 novel Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk demonstrates a strong basis in psychoanalytical theory. The analysis of this novel shows that Freudian concepts of human nature and the basic instincts of Ero and Thanatos explain the reason behind the struggle of nature and nurture. This representation is evident in the setting, in the plot, and in the major characters of the novel. Within this framework for the discussion, I argue that the narrator's initial attempt to rebel against consumer culture force his natural instincts to resist nurture. The narrator escapes from the social orders and chooses violence as the best practice to break the chains of the nurture of civilized society. He starts living a life in the freedom offered by the real nature led by his instincts and desires. The attempt of nature to dominate nurture and vice versa ends up further escalating the struggle rather than eliminating it

A presente pesquisa aborda a Ficção Transgressiva, gênero ainda pouco estudado pela teoria e crítica literárias e menos ainda pelos Estudos de Tradução, mas que caracteriza um grande número de obras da literatura ocidental contemporânea. Pretende-se analisar o elemento transgressivo no texto literário a partir dos princípios de transgressão apresentados por Michel Foucault em seu ensaio “Prefácio à transgressão” (2009), chegando enfim às mais recentes reflexões teóricas, que veem a transgressão como um elemento inerente ao exercício literário, uma versão moderna da sátira (com função de incentivar e operar mudanças sociais), caso de M. Keith Booker (1991) e Robin Mookerjee (2013). Para tal, traçamos um panorama histórico do surgimento e amadurecimento da ficção transgressiva na literatura norte-americana, polissistema literário com o qual escolhemos trabalhar, a fim de tentar compreender de que forma esse gênero chegou às mãos dos leitores brasileiros e por qual motivo tem sido cada vez mais traduzida para o português. Em seguida, introduzimos o autor e a obra que selecionamos para a pesquisa: Chuck Palahniuk, escritor transgressivo norte-americano, e sua primeira coletânea de contos Make something up: stories you can’t unread (2015), que reúne um total de vinte e dois contos e uma novela, dentre os quais foram analisados e traduzidos “Knock-knock”, “How Monkey got married, bought a house and found happiness in Orlando”, “Zombies” e “Loser”. Tratam-se de textos sensíveis, vanguardistas e polêmicos também no que concerne o uso da língua e estrutura textual, que permitem uma grande variação de estilos, recursos linguísticos e literários, enredos, temas abordados, entre outros aspectos. A partir da tradução desses textos, tecemos comentários sobre como se dá a reescrita de textos transgressivos em português, de que forma ela pode se mostrar desafiadora para o tradutor e que estratégia de tradução desenvolvemos e aplicamos no processo tradutório.
This research study focuses on Transgressive Fiction, a genre seldom approached in literary criticism and theories, even more rarely so in Translation Studies, but one that accounts for a considerable number of works in contemporary Western literature. The transgressive element shall be herein analyzed according to the transgressive principles presented by Michel Foucault in his essay “A Preface to Transgression” (2009), finally covering some recent theoretical reflections that see transgression as an inherent element to the literary exercise - as a modern version of satire, it has the function of encouraging and operating social changes –, as do the works of M. Keith Booker (1991) and Robin Mookerjee (2013). In order to do so, we provide a historical overview regarding how transgressive fiction has come into being and grown in American literature, the literary polysystem we chose to work with, as a way of understanding how come Brazilian readers are now reading this gender and why it is being progressively more translated into Portuguese. The next step is to present the author and work of fiction chosen for the research: Chuck Palahniuk, American transgressive writer, and his first collection of short stories, Make something up: stories you can’t unread (2015). It gathers together twenty-two short stories and a novella, among which we have analysed and translated “Knock-knock”, “How Monkey got married, bought a house and found happiness in Orlando”, “Zombies” and “Loser. Those texts are also sensitive, innovative, and controversial regarding the language use and textual structure, which bring about a wide variety of styles, linguistic and literary resources, plots, themes, among other aspects. Finally, based on the translation and analysis of these texts, we have commented on how transgressive texts are rewritten in Portuguese, how they can present themselves as a challenge for translators and what we have developed and applied as translation strategies in the translation process.

Abstract:
This thesis explores how American transgressive fiction of the 1990s represents and interrogates transgressive processes in its extra-textual context. It shows in what ways transgressive fiction visualizes how transgression functions, not simply as a counter-cultural phenomenon, but more as a central social mechanism. The thesis makes four contributions. First, it critically assesses existing definitions of transgression as counter-cultural, instead conceptualizing transgression as a mechanism which (re)develops central social ideologies. The project traces how the transgression of ideological boundaries forms a cyclical process which (re)produces ideological frameworks. Second, the thesis uses this re-definition to explore 1990s transgressive fiction in its social context. The study investigates how the late 1980s, characterized by phenomena such as neoliberal politics and the HIV/AIDS epidemic, inspired transgressive fiction produced during the 1990s. Thirdly, the thesis constructs an interdisciplinary methodological approach to dissect how the body came to play a crucial role in this context as a site through which transgression occurred. Drawing from biopolitical and queer theory, the study deepens the understanding of transgression as both a literary phenomenon and a socio-political process. Finally, the thesis compares the work of three transgressive authors whose work has not yet been analysed together in depth. It analyses the fiction of Bret Easton Ellis and Chuck Palahniuk in combination with that of Poppy Z. Brite, an author who has, in comparison, been neglected by academia. The analysis results in an increased understanding of the dynamics of transgression in 1990s American fiction and society, showing that transgression is a cyclical process which reproduces and subsequently dissolves ideological boundaries, a practice which results in a temporary crisis which ultimately enables the (re)development of ideologies. The thesis concludes that transgressive fiction of the period represents, exaggerates and interrogates transgression as a cyclical process which (re)configures ideologies in its extra-textual context.

Full text
Abstract:
Chuck Palahniuk’s Lullaby is a novel that evaluates modern spaces both abstract and physical, especially in regards to an individual’s experience in and attachment to domestic, regulated space as a source of identity, intimacy, and spatial representation. My thesis demonstrates how the destabilization of domestic space as a result of loss and grief led the characters of the novel to question their normative perceptions of space, and in turn, incited them to produce a new kind of space, a heterotopia, to compensate for their loss of identity and place in the world. The critical analysis of this text within this thesis demonstrates how Chuck Palahniuk employs his literary style, complex characters, and surreal plot to highlight the significance of how individuals interact and are affected by space, especially in regards to identity and relationships within society, particularly when confronting cognitive dissonance and uncanny affect. By assessing the haunting attributes of domestic space, the heterotopia that arises from cognitive dissonance, and the sentimental traits that anchor us to certain social spaces, readers will be able to value the influence of spatial practice, not only in the novel, but also in everyday life.

Abstract:
Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar o romance Assombro, de Chuck Palahniuk, como retrato e sintoma do comportamento da sociedade pós-moderna ocidental, cujos valores correspondem, de acordo com palavras do próprio autor, ao “inverso do sonho americano”. A principal característica de tal sociedade é a dificuldade dos indivíduos em lidar com as exigências e constantes mudanças nos âmbitos individual, social e psicológico, o que se configura na obra do escritor estadunidense através de personagens marginais em busca (na maioria das vezes, aparentemente inconsciente) de autoaceitação ou adaptação social. A leitura desenvolvida aqui se baseia principalmente nos escritos do teórico francês Jean Baudrillard, que apresenta o pressuposto de que o mundo contemporâneo encontra-se num estado de “pós-orgia”, assombrado por três fantasmas que o teórico chama de câncer, travesti e terrorismo, os quais simbolizam questões sociais contemporâneas relacionadas à política, sexualidade, comunicação e relacionamentos humanos, entre outros aspectos. Os conceitos de Baudrillard que norteiam a análise são: 'estado de pós-orgia', 'hiperrealidade', 'simulação', 'virulência' e 'sedução' e 'fantasmas'. O trabalho também apresenta as características da literatura de Chuck Palahniuk e sua recém-iniciada fortuna crítica, apontando os principais aspectos da sociedade pós-moderna presentes em suas obras e culminando em um cotejo de Assombro com o gótico e sua vertente pós-moderna, além de uma comparação entre a dinâmica estabelecida entre as personagens do romance e aquela percebida nos reality shows e falsos documentários (mock-documentaries). A conclusão retoma aspectos na estrutura, imaginário e conteúdo do romance, que permitem defini-lo como retrato e sintoma de uma nova configuração social, resultado das inevitáveis mudanças por que o mundo passa.
This dissertation aims at presenting Chuck Palahniuk‟s novel Haunted as a portrait and symptom of the behavior perceived in the postmodern Western society, whose values, according to the author himself, correspond to “the opposite of the American Dream”. The main characteristic of such society is the individuals‟ difficulty in dealing with demands and constant changes in the individual, social and psychological spheres, a fact observed in the work of this American writer through the presence of marginal characters in a more often than not apparently unconscious search of self-acceptance or social adaptation. The reading proposed is mainly based on the writings of French theoretician Jean Baudrillard, who presents the assumption that the contemporary world is in a “post-orgy” state, haunted by three phantasies he denominates cancer, transvestitism and terrorism, which symbolize contemporary social issues related to politics, sexuality, communication and human relationships, among other aspects. The concepts by Baudrillard that underlie the analysis are: 'post-orgy state', 'hyperreality', 'simulation', 'virulence', 'seduction' and 'phantasies'. The work also presents the features of the literature produced by Chuck Palahniuk and its newly-started critical fortune, highlighting the main aspects of postmodern society present in his works, culminating with an approximation of Haunted to the postmodern variation of Gothic literature, besides a comparison between the dynamics established among the characters in the novel to the one perceived in reality shows and mock-documentaries. The conclusion strengthens aspects in the structure, imaginary and content of the novel that enable the definition of Haunted as portrait and symptom of a new social organization, resulting from the inevitable changes the world goes through.

Abstract:
A jelen kötet az interdiszciplinaritás jegyében olyan, különböző szakmai háttérrel rendelkező magyar szerzők tanulmányait gyűjti egybe, akiket ugyanakkor összeköt az Amerikai Egyesült Államok kultúrájának vizuális szempontú vizsgálatának igénye. Az írások az amerikanisztika és vizualitás metszéspontjai által kijelölt, az információs társadalom témaköréhez kapcsolódó problémák feldolgozására vállalkoznak: céljuk különféle amerikai kulturális jelenségek előállításának és recepciójának elemzése – gyakran transznacionális kontextusban. A kötet nyitó- és joggal programadónak tekinthető tanulmányában Z. Karvalics László a vizualitás témakörét járja körül az információs társadalom USA-beli megszületésével kapcsolatban. Fő tézise, hogy az információs társadalom kialakulása a hétköznapok gyakorlataira is kihatással volt, melynek részeként a vizualitás is elsődleges szerepet kapott az amerikai kultúra formálásában. Ehhez a történeti perspektívájú tanulmányhoz kapcsolódik Lénárt András dolgozata, mely a Franco-rezsim recepcióját vizsgálja meg korabeli hollywoodi filmekben. Főként arra a kérdésre keresi a választ, hogy az amerikai cenzúra miként befolyásolta az egy, az Egyesült Államokétól eltérő politikai rendszer reprezentációját. Ugyanilyen történeti érdeklődést mutat Lévai Csaba A hazafi (2000) című hollywoodi filmről készült tanulmánya, melyben azt térképezi fel, hogy az amerikai függetlenségi háború miként jelenik meg a filmben, és ennek apropóján arra is kitér, hogy a mai amerikai kultúripar elvárásainak megfelelően hogyan adaptáltatik egy standard amerikai történeti téma. Barát Erzsébet tanulmánya egy mai témát dolgoz fel erőteljes transznacionális perspektívából. A NAP kampány kapcsán azt vizsgálja, hogy az angolszász feminista diskurzusok a magyarországi kulturális kontextusban és így a kampányban milyen módosulásokon mentek át a vizuális reprezentáció során. Sári B. László dolgozata szintén egy kortárs, de irodalmi témát vizsgál, Chuck Palahniuk Láthatatlan szörnyek című regényét (1999), különös tekintettel a vizuális média amerikai minimalista prózára, gyakorolt hatására. A műben a posztmodern hagyományos érdeklődési köre (episztemológia, nyelvjáték, identitáspolitika) helyett az intermedialitás nyer alternatív jelentőséget. A vizualitás kérdése még hangsúlyosabban jelenik meg Gollowitzer Diána dolgozatában, mely a televíziós sorozatok új média által befolyásolt fogyasztását vizsgálja. Az internet által biztosított kontextus megváltoztatta a sorozatok fogyasztási szokását és ezzel magának a nézőnek a koncepcióját is. Végül, a könyv záró tanulmányában Dragon Zoltán egy, az információs társadalom vizuális aspektusának amerikai kultúrához kötődő új jelenségének vizsgálatára vállalkozik. Azt igyekszik feltárni, hogy a hollywoodi filmgyártásban egyre inkább teret nyerő szoftveralapú technológia milyen befolyással bír a film tartalmi és nyelvezeti komponenseire.

Abstract:
Fight Club is, on one level, pop-culture phenomena and on another, a deeply philosophical and satirical exploration of modern life. David Fincher's 1999 film (and Chuck Palahniuk's source novel) has had a huge impact on audiences worldwide leading to spoofs, homage, merchandising and numerous Internet fan sites. On initial release the film was met with wide hostility from critics who either failed to appreciate its satirical intent or believed the film failed to deliver on its satirical promise. Early in its DVD afterlife, however, a wider audience began to appreciate the film's significance and radical message. Although attracted by the film's playfulness and star wattage, however, many students struggle with its theoretical notions such as capitalism, materialism, anarchy and so on. This is one film, which therefore merits a thoughtful and provocative analysis but also an accessible one, and this book provides just that.

Abstract:
Two recent books try to redefine the economic and financial systems bringing them back to documents (Ferraris) and to instinctive drives (Mazzarella). This essay reviews some of the most important novels of the third millennium about entrepreneurs to test the cogency of these concepts. From American Pastoral by Philip Roth to Beautiful You by Chuck Palahniuk, from The Human Resources Manager by Abraham Yehoshua to Zero K by Don DeLillo, the essay describes the present world as a society of wasted desire and the life of the company as a constant search for meaning.

Abstract:
Through discussions of novels by Chuck Palahniuk, Cristina Alger, and Don DeLillo, as well as some films (Fight Club, The Big Short) and television series (Mr. Robot), this chapter lays out the central terms of the book (finance, psychosis, realism) and summarizes the book’s project, as well as the arguments of the individual chapters on Wolfe, Ellis, Harris, Houellebecq, and Lerner. Distinguishing finance from capitalism, the introduction considers the intensified psychotic environment of the digitized finance economy and in particular the realist novel’s place within it. What kind of realism would be attuned to a contemporary economy driven by non-human agents operating at speeds that exceed human and technological observation?
