Abstract:
Patras Bukhari is regarded as one of the most important and professed humorists of Urdu literature. He has written very simple and general topics on life. Patras was a multidisciplinary personality, he had proficiency in specialized English. This is why the material in his writings is derived from Eastern civilization and the style reflects the West’s technical and cultural diversity and the simplicity of the style adds to the impression. “Petras kay Mazameen” is full of amusement containing humor, farce, and satire.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper discusses contemporary Polish humor which features references to Chinese language and culture. Together with the ideological, political, financial and economic visibility of China, its presence in Polish humorous discourse is on the rise. Jokes, cabaret sketches and visual materials, such as memes, more and more frequently use the Chinese as targets for entertaining the audience. The article will analyze the instances of Polish humorous discourse (largely Internet memes) to show which are the most frequent specific stereotypes about the Chinese and how that relates to Davies

Abstract:
The present article analyzes the discursive articulation of resistance to the regime of Slobodan Milosevic during the civil and student protests in Serbia in the winter of 1996/97. By applying critical discourse analysis to the opposition press of the time, we find that the rhetoric during the protests centered around the notions of civilization and culture. In variations of orientalism, balkanism and ?urbocentric exclusivism,? the ?Us? and ?Them? identifications were constructed through mutually interlaced semantic pairs: civilization - backwardness, culture - primitivism, Europe - Balkans/Or

Abstract:
Traditionally, the status of foreigners in Russia, especially of West-Europeans, is fairly high. My linguistic analysis of Russian literary sources of the 18 th to the 21 st centuries aims at eliciting presumptions (i. e. indirectly expressed opinions) and/or stereotypes of foreigners disclosed in occurrences of Russian lexical items such as ‘inostranets’ (“foreigner”). This procedure yields a list of typical culturally relevant “parameters of aliens” in Russian culture. Stereotypes of alien behaviour and alien appearance, for short, stereotypes of “Russian aliens” are specific for Russian cul

Abstract:
Against the general opinion the history of graffiti goes back to the beginnings of civilization. There are numerous examples of graffiti, for instance the inscriptions hollowed with a chisel found on the ancient household artifacts or on the walls. The inscriptions had an informative function but they were also magical. The phenomenon of spray art was widespread in the 1960s and the beginning of the Polish taggers subculture was in the 1980s, although one can find street art during the Second World War. But it is usually neglected or disregarded in the Polish literature. The Anchor – the sign

Although originally supporting Stephen Douglas, a Democrat, during the election of 1860, the newspaper shifted its views during the war in support of Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party.

Abstract This chapter discusses European cultural views prior to World War I, where elites believed that their civilization was superior to all others and that science and trade and enlightened rationalism would be victorious over barbarism, including bringing an end to war. Europeans did not yet know that by mid-century the “heart of darkness” would beat all along the Rhine, Danube, Volga, and Thames, more than it ever did down the Congo. It explores romanticized first encounters of British and German troops in 1914, and of Austrian and Russian troops, noting how early chivalry and even humor

Modern conceptions of health and disease can be traced back to early Chinese, Indian, Egyptian, and Greek civilizations. Galen of Pergamon, a Greek physician who practiced medicine for most of his career in Rome, had an enduring impact on the medical sciences for almost 15 centuries with his writings on the balance among the four humors: black bile, yellow bile, blood, and phlegm. At the end of the 19th century, Claude Bernard in Paris wrote about the importance of the constancy of the internal environment.

In arguing this case, I am aware that I lay myself open to the not entirely unjustifiable accusation of being an old-fashioned Jacobin, perverted by a nostalgia for the 1950s and 1960s, by a penchant for limited social democratic distributionalism, and by an admiration for the French prefecto
