Abstract:
The role of fatalism in health behaviour has stirred significant controversy in literature across several disciplines. Some researchers have demonstrated a negative correlation between fatalistic beliefs and healthy behaviours such as cancer screening, arguing that fatalism is a barrier to health-seeking behaviours. Other studies have painted a more complicated picture of fatalistic beliefs and health behaviours that ultimately questions fatalism’s causality as a distinct factor. Unpacking this debate raises thought-provoking questions about how epistemological and methodological frameworks present particular pictures about the connections between belief, race, class and behaviour. The discussion surrounding fatalism illuminates larger tensions between structural and cultural determinants of health behaviour. This article argues for a more rigorous delineation of culture and structure and suggests that future theory-informed and ethnographic research may more precisely parse the role of fatalism in health attitudes, beliefs and behaviours.

Abstract:
Film noir is one of American cinema’s most renowned and well-studied phenomena. It is a cycle of films made during the 1940s and 1950s, mostly produced as B-movies, i.e., cheaper films presented as part of a double feature. This is one of the most important reasons why it took such a long time for American film scholars to address the importance of film noir. The first monograph on film noir, Panorama du film noir américain, was published in France in 1955, and this work by Borde and Chaumeton remains one of the most valuable studies covering this important cycle. Generally speaking, French film scholars are those most responsible for highlighting the value of American, and especially Hollywood, film while significant American contributions to the study of film noir only began in the 1970s. Like few American films that preceded it, The Killers presented a completely dark world filled with hapless protagonists, where the only location that evokes even a glimmer of happiness is a terrace on the edge of the city. All other locations are a vivid reflection of the state of mind of the film’s main characters, lost in the dark labyrinths of the metropolis, victims of the unfathable threads that fate uses to play with their lives. Utilizing a combination of extremely claustrophobic locations and flashbacks that further fragment an already very complex narrative, Siodmak created a work that is one of the most faithful evocations of fatalism in American film.

Abstract:
The article provides a philosophical analysis of the problem of fate and heroism based on the works of Mikhail Lermontov and Leo Tolstoy. The author examines this problem against the background of the modern cultural and philosophical context, bringing the philosophy of literature closer to the philosophy of culture and philosophical anthropology. The article demonstrates that for Lermontov and Tolstoy a hero becomes a hero when he meets his fate, opposing his will and honor to inevitability, strives to become a demigod and to compare to eternity and multicolored fullness of the nature’s life. The author analyzes the motives of childishness, merging with nature, meeting with destiny, aristocratic rejec­tion of modern European rationalism (the philosophy of the bourgeois and raznochintsy), the rejection of history with its reasonable “sense and purpose” and the ideas of justice and retribution. All these features of the worldview and art of Lermontov and Tolstoy are dictated by their heroics. An unreasonable and unjust world where blind fate reigns is the world depicted in their works and aes­thetically justified in them. The article also discusses Lermontov and Tolstoy’s zealous persecution of pseudo-heroism of “our time”: the profanation of fatalism leads to the degeneration of heroism. Thus, the European world of “knowledge and doubt”, which has rejected the idea of fate, is contrasted with the world of heroic play. Both the former and the latter are mythologemes, Lermontov and Tolstoy strive to build another, mythological world of childishness and aristoc­racy outside of history next to the real world of the Pechorins.

Abstract:
"Lei Yu (Thunderstorm)" by Cao Yu presents the tragedy of Zhou Gong Guan, a feudal family in the Republican era, by characterizing different personalities, backgrounds and ethical relationships. As a dramatic work of considerable status in modern Chinese literature, "Lei Yu" contains many profound connotations. From its publication in 1934 to the present, "Lei Yu" has profoundly exposed the problems of the feudal family's autocratic and corrupt times through the meticulous and precise portrayal of its many characters' complex relationships and the gradual clarification of its historical past. This work exposes not only the conflicts of the members of the Zhou Gong Guan but also the class disparity and the status of men and women in the era through the class and gender of each member. At present, academic research on "Lei Yu" is very mature, but there is still some room for research on the analysis of the characters' relationship and tragedy of fate in relation to the author's view of fate and the imagery of "Lei Yu". Therefore, this paper will start with the interpretation of Cao Yu's view of fate, analyze the author's view of "the fatalism of gods and ghosts" and "the view of nature and heaven" in the preface, and then analyze the imagery of "Lei Yu" to derive the tragedy of fate. Then, through the analysis of the imagery of this work, the complex family conflicts and the characters' view of fate behind it are derived, and then the characters' characters, experiences and identities are carefully analyzed through both character tragedies and ethical tragedies, revealing the irresistible tragedy of fate in the relationship between the characters of "Lei Yu", which means that all characters in the play have tragedies in character and ethical relationships.

Abstract:
As one of the four great classics of China, "The Dream of the Red Chamber" is the pearl of the treasure of the world classical literature. With the development of film and television technology, the masterpiece has been repeatedly put on the screen, and has gained great national popularity. In particular, the writing of the fate of some women indicates the plot of the novel, shapes the characters, creates the tragic atmosphere and the helpless tone, which not only guides the overall direction of the novel, but also greatly enriches the ideological and cultural connotation of "The Dream of the Red Chamber". To some extent, it is under the guidance of the ancient philosophy of fatalism that "The Dream of the Red Chamber" has such great charm. Today, although the rise of national consciousness, the public has their own understanding of breaking through the shackles of destiny. So this paper will start with the fatalistic view and discuss the influence of focusing on the Dream of Red Mansions and its expression on gender.

Abstract:
John Martin Fischer’s core project in Our Fate (2016) is to develop and defend Pike-style arguments for theological incompatibilism, i. e., for the view that divine omniscience is incompatible with human free will. Against Ockhamist attacks on such arguments, Fischer maintains that divine forebeliefs constitute so-called hard facts about the times at which they occur, or at least facts with hard ‘kernel elements’. I reconstruct Fischer’s argument and outline its structural analogies with an argument for logical fatalism. I then point out some of the costs of Fischer’s reasoning that come into focus once we notice that the set of hard facts is closed under entailment.

Abstract:
Inasmuch as they offer advice on howto improve appearances, nineteenth-century beauty manuals also vividly describe the dangers of putting on a face. The consequences of using cosmetics – often comprised of toxic ingredients such as arsenic, mercury, and lead – might range from the discomfort of surface irritation to the fatality of poisoning. Several manuals recount the unfortunate story of Lady Mary Montagu, who suffered an allergic reaction to a popular cosmetic, the Genuine Balm of Mecca, which led her face to turn red and swell “to a very extraordinary size . . . . It remained in this tormentable state three days, during which you may be sure I passed my time very ill” (Toilette of Health64). Another woman succumbed to an equally unfortunate fate as the facial powder, or “pearl white,” she wore to a scientific demonstration suddenly turned black in an adverse reaction to the chemicals used in the experiment. In an even more tragic case, “Mrs. S, being much troubled with pimples, applied an alum poultice to her face, which was soon followed by a stroke of the palsy, and terminated in her death” (Clark iv, 46). These stories caution that beautification through artificial means may eradicate the very self that had sought improvement.

Abstract:
This paper considers the influences of fate and free will in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. Current scholarship on the topic generally agrees that Rowling champions free will by allowing her characters learning opportunities through their choices. By using Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy on fate and free will and by more closely examining the Harry Potter texts, this paper demonstrates fate’s stronger presence in Rowling’s fictional world. Certain strong-willed characters rise above their peers’ fated states by embracing their personal fates and exercising their wills to create themselves within fated destinies. The paper also explores the possibility of an authority directing fate.

Abstract:
This PhD thesis, On Fate and Fatalism: Photography and Fatal Theories, is a twopart practice-led enquiry comprising a book of photographs and an exegesis. This exegesis, entitled Photography and Fatal Theories, is my written interpretation and response to two bodies of artwork presented in my book, On Fate and Fatalism, in which I examine the notion of fate and fatalism through a photographic practice. This project proceeds by posing the question: how can notions of fate and fatalism be explored, articulated and interpreted in a photographic practice? In my series, Femme Fatalist: Woman With Taxidermy, which comprises Part One of my book On Fate and Fatalism, I examine the notion of fate with pertinence to postfeminism and argue that the discourse of postfeminism is enclosed in a discourse of how women relate to popular culture and consumption. My femme fatalist is a parody of the postmodern femme fatale trope, and through conceptualizing popular postfeminism as a form of fatalism, I present a critique of conspicuous consumption as being an insufficient form of postfeminist empowerment. I suggest that the notion of the abject offers a perspective on the importance of the fatal to subjectivity in postmodernity, and my interest in the fatal follows through to my series, Body Bags: “I am a Trash Bag”, which comprises Part Two of my book of photographs. In this second series, in which I conceptualize the plastic bag as the quintessential icon of postmodern consumption, I move toward a consideration of waste as a means to explore the notions of fate and fatalism. Through this investigation I find that to be a fatalist, and to believe in fate, has lost much of its meaning in postmodernity, and I suggest that practice-led research offers opportunities for a meaningful reconsideration of fate and fatalism’s relevance to discussions of postmodern subjectivity and discourses of consumption.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This qualitative study used an interpretive paradigm within a theoretical framework of social cognitive theory to explore fatalism within the context of the lived experiences of adolescents. A tentative assumption was made that fatalism among adolescents may be at the root of a variety of recognisable behavioural and educational problems that manifest in South African society. At the same time the study aimed to investigate how fatalism may manifest in and colour the lived experiences of adolescents, as well to investigate how fatalism possibly affects educational attainment. This study was informed by a literature review which addressed the different theoretical perspectives pertaining to the etiology of fatalism. The literature was approached from a very wide perspective, including contributions from the various disciplines in the field of social sciences including theology, philosophy, psychology and social theory. These insights were complemented by perspectives from educational psychology particularly with regard to adolescent development and learning theory. The sample of the study constituted of 164 grade 11 learners from five schools in the Western Cape. Data was collected by making use of creative strategies, focus groups and personal interviews. This study found the following: adolescent fatalism seems to emanate from the lived experiences of adolescents as a cognitive phenomenon, rooted in the deterministic beliefs of adolescents about their selves, others, as well as the physical and social environments, with behavioural, affective and psychological consequences. Adolescent fatalism colour their lived experiences by causing alienation from those experiences, oppositional behaviour and feelings of pessimism, anxiety and depression. Adolescent fatalism seems to affect educational attainment by contributing to fixed implicit theories of academic potential, low level of motivation, disengagement from the educational system and the social aspects of learning.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie kwalitatiewe studie is gedoen binne 'n interpretatiwe paradigma en vanuit die teoretiese raamwerk van die sosiaal-kognitiewe teorie ten einde fatalisme binne die lewensondervindinge van adolessente te ondersoek. 'n Tentatiewe aanname is gemaak dat fatalisme onder adolessente aan die kern van 'n verskeidenheid van herkenbare gedrags- en opvoedkundige probleme in die Suid-Afrikaanse samelewing mag lê. Verder was die studie daarop gemik om ondersoek in te stel na die manifestering van fatalisme in die lewens van adolessente, hoe dit die lewensondervindinge van adolessente raak en hoe dit die bereiking van opvoedkundige doelwitte beïnvloed. Die studie is gebaseer op 'n literatuuroorsig wat die verskillende teoretiese perspektiese rakende die etiologie van fatalisme aanspreek. Die literatuuroorsig is vanuit 'n wye perspektief benader en sluit interdissiplinêre bydraes uit die veld van die sosiale wetenskappe byvoorbeeld teologie, filosofie, sielkunde en sosiale teorie. Hierdie insigte is gekombineer met perspektiewe uit die opvoedkundige sielkunde, spesifiek ten opsigte van adolessente ontwikkeling en leerteorie. Die steekproef vir die studie het uit 164 leerders uit 5 skole bestaan. Data is ingesamel deur van kreatiewe strategieë asook fokusgroep en individuele onderhoude gebruik te maak. In hierdie studie is die volgende bevindinge gemaak: adolessente fatalisme blyk uit die lewensondervindinge van adolessente te voorskyn te kom. Dit manifesteer as 'n kognitiewe fenomeen wat gewortel is in die deterministiese geloof van adolessente aangaande hulself, ander, sowel as die fisieke en sosiale omgewings, met gedrags-, affektiewe en sielkundige gevolge. Adolessente fatalisme kleur hul lewenservaringe deur hulle van daardie ervaringe te vervreem, tot weerstandige gedrag aanleiding te gee en gevoelens van pessimisme, angs en depressie te veroorsaak. Adolessente fatalisme blyk ook die bereiking van opvoedkundige doelwitte te beïnvloed deurdat dit aanleiding gee tot vaste implisiete teorieë oor akademiese potensiaal, lae vlakke van motivering meebring, onttrekking uit die opvoedkundige stelsel aan die hand werk en die sosiale aspekte van leer beïnvloed.

Abstract:
Philosophers who work on time often ignore the implications their doctrines have for the common sense intuition that the past is fixed and the future not. Similarly, those who work on fatalism, and whose arguments often imply an assertion or denial of the common sense intuition, rarely take into account the implicit dependence their arguments have upon specific theories of time. I take the intuition, and its relation to the nature of time, seriously. In Part I of my thesis, I investigate the relations between the dynamic and static theories of time, on the one hand, and the intuition, on the other. I argue that the so called 'pure' forms of these theories, inasmuch as they both posit an ontological temporal symmetry, cannot do justice to the intuition. The 'pure' B-Theory, with its denial of objective temporal becoming, cannot allow for a robust sense in which the future is non-fixed. The 'pure' A-Theory, according to which only the present exists, acknowledges the robustness of the asymmetry, but cannot provide a ground for it. I conclude Part I of my thesis with the claim that only a conception of time according to which the past exists and the future does not, can account for the intuition. In Part II, I discuss those fatalistic arguments which rely upon the determinateness of future truth as their key premise, and argue that these fail either because they rely on an illegitimate modal concept, or because they rely on a key undefended assumption. Finally, in the Epilogue, I provide a more detailed sketch of the account of time posited at the end of Part I, and suggest that it can also provide a more thoroughgoing rejection of the logical fatalistic argument.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the appropriation, adaptation, and translation of the picturebook Grandmamma Easy’s Michaelmas Day, or The Fate of Poor Molly Goosey. Originally issued by London publisher Dean & Company c. 1843, it was reprinted three years later in Philadelphia by George S. Appleton. In about 1850, the text was Americanized and issued by Boston publisher Wier & White under the title Thanksgiving Day. Around 1870, New York publisher D. Appleton & Company translated the picturebook into Spanish and issued it as La Historia de La Gansa Amorosa (The Story of the Loving Goose) for sale in an emerging Hispanic book market, enlisting picturebook manufacturer McLoughlin Brothers. Tracing the transnational, translingual history of Molly, this study illuminates the use of recognized public holidays to reach new markets.

Abstract:
After a brief overview of children’s photography books in Israel, this chapter focuses on photobooks that were shot in the kibbutzim. Created mostly by local photographers with an insider’s gaze, these books embody the vision of childhood in a rural, parentless environment protected from the fate of the Oedipal fall and the perils of a changing society. While promoting the vision of the kibbutz by documenting children’s everyday life, some of these books tap into the loss and deprivation in the realized utopia of the kibbutz. The three case studies discussed in the chapter, published between 1961–1968, present various interactions between photographer and writer, images and words, that yielded intricate messages. An analysis of them shows how this variant of the photobook exploited the qualities of the medium and the genre, which combine realism and nostalgia, in order to reveal the underlying tensions in the kibbutz’s vision and way of life.

Abstract:
In her masterpiece, The Second Sex, French writer Simone de Beauvoir stated: "Human society is devoid of all natural elements. Females, like many others, are a product of civilization. " Other people's intervention in her fate was usually decisive. If we had acted in a different direction, a totally different outcome would have resulted. The status of women has improved with the times, but the existence of sexual injustice cannot be denied. Overt gender discrimination has decreased considerably, but gender injustice is not currently decreasing and is everywhere in schooling.

Abstract:
Understanding the fate and toxicity of environmental contaminants is essential to framing practical management decisions. Forms and bioavailable concentrations often change over time due to natural physical, chemical, and biological processes. For some sites, hundreds of contaminants may be of initial interest, and even small projects can involve a substantial number of contaminants. With multiple assessments common, attention to effectiveness and efficiency is important, and integrating fate and toxicity information provides a valuable way to focus the analyses. Fate assessments help identify what forms may be present where and when, while toxicity information indicates what health effects could result if people were exposed. The integration process is illustrated by an application for the Hanford site, to support long-term management decisions for the cesium and strontium capsules. Fate data, health-based benchmarks, and related toxicity information were effectively combined to indicate performance targets for chemicals and radionuclides identified for capsule leachate that could migrate to groundwater. More than 50 relevant benchmarks and toxicity context were identified for 15 of the 17 study contaminants; values for chronic drinking water exposure provided the common basis for selected indicators. For two chemicals, toxicity information was identified from the scientific literature to guide the performance targets.

Abstract:
The object of the research is the poetic and prose works of writers who are ethnic Tatars, write in Russian, and are related to their native literature and culture. It is stated that the probable, indefinite, and multiple models of the world, subject status, and fate derived from their works can be defined by the concepts that assert the notion of continuous fluidity, dynamism, and transformations of meaning. The authors come to the conclusion that transitive meanings in literature implementing the phenomenon of cultural boundaries are generated by the growing plasticity of the hero-subject, who is in constant process of recreating himself.

Abstract:
Over the centuries, and especially in recent decades, Serbian language and Serbian literature experience an unusual fate: the area covered by language and literature is increasingly reduced by tearing parts from its being and by giving them new names. Inventing the names of new languages, new nations, new cultures, new regions and new literatures represents a deep intrusion into the essence of both the individual and the collective identity of the human being. This text tries to point out the ways and procedures by which the (re)naming moved the boundaries of the area covered by the Serbian language, although the essence remained unchanged.

Abstract:
The paper analyzes Ilya Ehrenbourg’s novel “The Fall of Parisˮ (1942) against the background of synchronic and diachronic cultural contexts. The author pays special attention to the mythologization of Paris from the middle of the 19th century and to the ideological consequences of the country’s defeat in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. The work shows the connection of the writer’s novel with the cultural background of France “between two warsˮ. The novelist’s polemical dialogue with Jean Giraudoux on the Franco-German value-cultural collisions is demonstrated. It is concluded that for Ehrenbourg, as for a number of his Western brethren and recent researchers, the fall of Paris in 1940 was a sign of the end of the entire traditional West of Modern Times, and more specifically, the era of Modernism.

Abstract:
The author examines several poems by Alexander Kushner, containing reminiscences from Pushkin’s novel “The Captain’s Daughter”. All of them are connected with the snowstorm episode from the second chapter of the novel. In Kushner’s creative mind, this episode brings together some important lyrical themes of the poet: the historical fate of the “big country”; winter bad weather, with its rich semantic load suggested by Pushkin’s novel; military childhood; the ability of a person, a creator, to foresee the course of things, growing with age; the special role of Pushkin as a “counselor” in Russian culture.

Abstract:
The article deals with historiosophical meaning of the verses by J.P. Kuznetsov “Fedora”. It is concluded that the poet defines the essence of the current historical moment in the fate of Russia in 1993, outlines historical Parallels with previous eras, enters into a polemic with Chaadaev and Vyazemsky, develops the ideas of Dostoevsky and Blok. In the center of attention Yu.P. has the way of Russia in world history, the “Russian idea”, which is not a movement in a circle or on a curve, without a goal, as Chaadaev believed, not trampling on the spot, but a conscious and bequeathed by the ancestors of standing on their own, forward movement through disasters and rebirth. The poet's idiostyle is subordinate to the solution of this artistic problem.

Abstract:
The work deals with Adrian Makedonov’s long-term study of the creative heritage of Nikolai Zabolotsky. Over the course of 20 years, Makedonov published a number of articles about the poet, which resulted in one of the first monographs about him (“Nikolai Zabolotsky. Life. Creativity. Metamorphoses”, 1968). The researcher tried to give a holistic analysis of the poet’s creative fate and the development of his artistic skills. This became possible as a result of a pains-taking analysis of all works available at that time, and at all levels of the poetic text (from the system of images to the features of versification). Repeatedly Makedonov entered into polemics with other researchers, in particular with Yu.M. Lotman, defending his view both on Zabolotsky’s poetry and on the methodology for studying poetic text. The issue of controversy is touched upon in the work.
