Abstract:
The study presents the methodological foundations analysis of the interaction between music and literature of the Ukrainian diaspora in the period of XX – early XXI century. In particular, the article offers an example of analysis of such interaction on the example of Ukrainian diaspora bandura art. Fundamental in the methodological analysis of the art interaction, and in particular literature and music, are the forms of emigrant (diasporic) worldview – conservative (traditional), synthesizing (unifying), and transforming (experimental). They are manifested in various forms of foreign artists’ creative activity – editing (restoration) of ancient genres, their modification and metamorphosis. The concept of “meta-art” was used as the main methodological basis for the music and literature interaction analysis, which is aimed at finding mechanisms for a comprehensive analysis of the Ukrainian diaspora art within the historical stages (according to emigration waves) and within the territorial settlements that found its reflection in figurative-thematic, value-aesthetic, genre, stylistic priorities of artists and interpretation of their ideas and meanings. The levels of literature and musical art interaction are considered by the author of the article on the inclusion samples in the bandura repertoire of various genres arrangements of folklore, religious and spiritual creativity, “shevchenkiana”, and works based on the Ukrainian poems of the XIX – XX centuries. Among the musical and folklore samples are epos (dumas, historical songs), domestic, humorous, lyrical songs, and the latest genres of works of the liberation struggle – songs of Sich riflemen, rebel songs. Among the spiritual and religious works are psalms and chants, kolyadkas and shchedrivkas, as well as religious and liturgical compositions by D. Bortnyansky, A. Hnatyshyn, M. Haivoronsky, M. Lysenko, D. Sichynsky, and other works arranged for bandura ensembles or chapels. Shevchenkiana bandura repertoire includes arrangements of folk songs and author’s works based on T. Shevchenko’s poems for solo bandura players and ensembles, recorded in music editions and sound recordings. Examples of cooperation between composers and poets in bandura art (in particular, H. Kytasty and I. Bahriany) are analyzed separately.

Abstract:
The custom of celebrating Valentine'sDay dates back to the Middle Ages. The emergence of Valentine's Day as a commercial holiday, exploited above all by the greeting card industry, is more recent. In Britain, Valentine's Day cards emerged in the eighteenth century. As David Vincent writes,The observance of 14 February underwent a metamorphosis during the eighteenth century which was later to befall many other customs. What had begun as an exchange of gifts, with many local variations of obscure origin, was gradually transformed into an exchange of tokens and letters, which in turn began to be replaced by printed messages from the end of the century. (44)Early examples of pre-printed Valentine's Day stationery and manuals for the composition of the perfect valentine reveal that existing folk customs were swiftly adapted by modern print culture and an increasingly literate population. However, it was the 1840 introduction of Rowland Hill's penny post in Britain, alongside concomitant advances in American and European postal infrastructure, which led to a veritable explosion in the exchange of valentines, moulding the practice into a shape still recognisable today (see Golden 222). Hill not only democratised access to written communication by lowering prices, he also anonymised epistolary exchange. Prepaid stamps and pillar post boxes made it possible to correspond with anyone, anywhere, without giving away one's identity. And while sending an anonymous letter would have been perceived as a violation of epistolary decorum during the remainder of the year, on Valentine's Day it was not only acceptable but, as Farmer Boldwood hints in Thomas Hardy'sFar from the Madding Crowd(1874), expected. The opportunity for anonymous correspondence generated an enthusiastic response.

Abstract:
The article addresses the issue of the intimate but troublesome liaison between philosophy and literature—referred to in scholarship as “the ancient quarrel between poets and philosophers.” Its aim is double-fold. First, it traces the interweaving paths of philosophical and literary discourse on the example of Wallace Stevens’s oeuvre. It demonstrates that this great American modernist advocates a clear distinction between poetry and philosophy on the one hand, but draws on and dramatizes philosophical ideas in his poems on the other. The vexing character of his poetic works exemplifies the convoluted and inescapable connections between philosophy and poetry. Second, it discusses various approaches to metaphor, highlighting Stevens’s inimitable take on it. The diverse ways of tackling metaphorical language cognize metaphor’s re-descriptive and reconfiguring character. They embrace e.g., Stevens’s concept of metaphor as metamorphosis, or as “resemblance rather than imitation.” The to date interpretations of Stevens’s poetry in the light of a whole host of philosophies yield important insights into the meaningful interconnections between poetry and philosophy. However, rather than offering another interpretation of his poems from a given philosophical angle, the versatile voices presented here interrogate what poetry consists in.

Abstract:
My dissertation reevaluates medieval concepts of body and identity by analyzing literary depictions of metamorphosis in romance. Focusing on examples such as the hag-turned-damsel in the Wife of Bath's Tale, the lump-turned-boy in The King of Tars and the demon-saint of Sir Gowther, I take as my starting point the fact that while those texts pivot on instances of physical transformation, they refrain from representing such change. This pattern of undescribed physical metamorphosis has broad implications for recent work on evolving notions of change and identity beginning in the high Middle Ages. While Caroline Walker Bynum has read the medieval outpouring of tales about werewolves and hybrids as imaginative responses to social upheavals, I consider why such medieval writings ironically focused on shape-shifters but avoided metamorphosis itself. I argue that we can understand why Chaucer and other writers resisted imagining bodies in the process of transforming by examining the history of ideas regarding metamorphosis in the medieval west. While the foremost classical writer on transformation, Ovid, reveled in depictions of metamorphosis, by the late Middle Ages a new religious discourse on change enjoyed prominence, the doctrine of transubstantiation. In its effort to separate substance and accidents, Eucharistic theory strove to detach identity from physical change and exhibited a certain level of repugnance over images of physical transformation. I argue that medieval secular writings address that anxiety over bread-turned-God in moments such as the close of the Wife of Bath's Tale. In a scene that recalls the place of veiling in Eucharistic ritual, the hag uses the bed curtain first to cloak then reveal her newly young and beautiful physique. Ultimately, the corpus of medieval literature on change--a body of work that engages both Ovidian and Eucharistic writings--suggests that identity intertwines with physical metamorphosis in a productive, if problematically unstable, manner.

Abstract:
The edge of the abyss: Metamorphosis as reality in contemporary Native American literature, approaches the concept of metamorphosis from a metaphysical and philosophical perspective as a culturally defined reality. It focuses on the works of contemporary Native American writers: Leslie Silko, Scott Momaday, Gerald Vizenor, and Louise Erdrich, who address the metamorphic properties of Time and the metamorphic abilities of Man as a continuing link to the supernatural and natural worlds through stories which descend from a history of oral traditions. The Edge of the Abyss explores the use of language and stories as a cultural survival technique for the retention of tribal ideology and world view. It addresses the fine line which exists between Western and Native American concepts of reality in order to re-define metamorphosis within a cultural context. This thesis uses an interdisciplinary approach utilizing anthropological, sociological, shamanistic, literary, and cultural materials in a comparative analysis.

My central thesis is that fantastic motifs work on a metaphorical level to encapsulate and express ideologies that have frequently been naturalised as 'truths'. I develop a theory of motif metaphors in order to examine the ideologies generated by the fantastic motif of metamorphosis in a range of contemporary children's and young adult fantasy texts. Although fantastic metamorphosis is an exceptionally prevalent and powerful motif in children's and young adult fantasy literature, symbolising important ideas about change and otherness in relation to childhood, adolescence, and maturation, and conveying important ideologies about the world in which we live, it has been little analysed in children's literature criticism. The detailed analyses of particular metamorphosis motif metaphors in this study expand and refine our academic understanding of the metamorphosis figure and consequently provide insight into the underlying principles and particular forms of a variety of significant ideologies.
By examining several principal metamorphosis motif metaphors I investigate how a number of specific cultural beliefs are constructed and represented in contemporary children's and young adult fantasy literature. I particularly focus upon metamorphosis as a metaphor for childhood otherness; adolescent hybridity and deviant development; maturation as a process of self-change and physical empowerment; racial and ethnic difference and otherness; and desire and jouissance. I apply a range of pertinent cultural theories to explore these motif metaphors fully, drawing on the interpretive frameworks most appropriate to the concepts under consideration. I thus employ general psychoanalytic theories of embodiment, development, language, subjectivity, projection, and abjection; poststructuralist, social constructionist, and sociological theories; and wide-ranging literary theories, philosophical theories, gender and feminist theories, race and ethnicity theories, developmental theories, and theories of fantasy and animality. The use of such theories allows for incisive explorations of the explicit and implicit ideologies metaphorically conveyed by the motif of metamorphosis in different fantasy texts.
In this study, I present a number of specific analyses that enhance our knowledge of the motif of fantastic metamorphosis and of significant cultural ideologies. In doing so, I provide a model for a new and precise approach to the analysis of fantasy literature.

Abstract:
This dissertation explores representations of plants in German-language film and literature at the beginning of the twentieth century. Five examples serve as case studies, demonstrating the widespread preoccupation with the motif of the "dynamic plant" at the turn of the century. I argue that the preoccupation with the motif of the "dynamic plant" demonstrates the interconnectedness of two broad cultural transformations that helped to change the public's perception of plants from one that viewed plants as nearly inanimate objects to a world view that that saw plants as living, dynamic life forms similar to animals and humans. The first transformation was intellectual, characterized by a reaction to materialist, positivist and mechanistic explanations of the natural world that helped revive aspects of Vitalism and Romanticism. The second, based in media technologies, directly transformed the representation of plants through time-lapse photography, speeding up their movements to the pace of animals. These transformations helped to challenge the hierarchy of humans, animals and plants, introducing instability and fluidity into categories of being. The changing perception of plants was met with a variety of reactions that ran along a spectrum from acknowledgement and anxiety in Gustav Meyrink's short story "Die Pflanzen des Doktor Cinderella" (1905) and in the films, Nosferatu (1921) and Alraune (1928), to celebrating this new dynamism and fluidity in Paul Scheerbart's "Flora story, "Mohr: eine Glasblumen-Novelle" (1909) and the Kulturfilm, Das Blumenwunder (1926).The close readings of the films and short stories are supported by other examples of the dynamic plant motif from archival sources, in addition to the work of such naturalists as Raoul Heinrich Francé from the turn of the century and scientists and philosophers from the mid nineteenth century such as Gustav Fechner. This specific historical topic, the motif of the dynamic plant, shows the relevance of questions regarding life and ecology for a rereading of German modernism, in addition to the relevance of a grounding in German language and literature for a historical understanding of how thinking about life changed in relation to media. In this sense, the dissertation contributes to growing interests in media and ecology, as well as the growing field of Ecocriticism in German studies and all literary studies.
Cette thèse explore la représentation des plantes dans la littérature et le cinéma de langue allemande au début du XXe siècle. Par le biais de cinq études de cas, ce projet s'intéresse au motif de la "plante dynamique" dans la modernité allemande, une préoccupation bien répandue à cette époque. Mon projet soutient que ce regain d'intérêt pour le mouvement de la plante dans les domaines de la littérature et du cinéma est étroitement lié à deux grandes transformations culturelles interdépendantes qui ont contribué à changer la perception populaire de la nature, à savoir la transition qui a permis de passer d'une perception basée sur la taxonomie et les hiérarchies rigides, à une nouvelle se rapprochant désormais au domaine de la vie et dans laquelle les forces dynamiques rattachées aux plantes, aux animaux et aux humains y trouvent leur juste valeur. La première transformation, d'ordre intellectuel, était caractérisée par un mouvement réactionnaire s'opposant au matérialisme, au positivisme et aux explications mécanistes de la nature qui ont su alimenter un regain d'intérêt pour la philosophie romantique de la nature et le vitalisme. La seconde, étroitement liée à l'émergence des nouveaux médias, transforma la façon d'observer les plantes. Grâce à la chronophotographie, une technique photographique novatrice, il était désormais possible d'observer la croissance et le mouvement des plantes de façon accélérée, voire au même rythme que celui des animaux. Ces transformations ont eu pour effet de relancer le débat portant sur la hiérarchie divisant les êtres humains, les animaux et les plantes, tout en introduisant la perception d'instabilité et de fluidité au sein des catégories de l'être. Ce changement de perception des plantes a été accueilli de manière mitigée, entraînant avec lui une variété de réactions. Passant de la reconnaissance à l'anxiété dans l'histoire courte de Gustav Meyrink "Die Pflanzen des Doktor Cinderella" (1905), dans les films Nosferatu (1921) et Alraune (1928), c'est avec grand enthousiasme que l'on s'intéressa à ce nouveau dynamisme et à la fluidité dans l'histoire courte "Flora Mohr : eine Glasblume - Novelle" (1909), par Paul Scheerbart et dans le « Kulturfilm », Das Blumenwunder (1926). Une analyse approfondie de ces films et de ces histoires courtes est appuyée par d'autres sources d'archives dans lesquelles on retrouve le motif dynamique des plantes, de même que dans les ouvrages scientifiques d'écrivains tels que Gustav Fechner, Maurice Maeterlinck et Raoul Heinrich Francé. Ce sujet historique spécifique, le motif de la plante dynamique, démontre la pertinence des questions reliées à la vie et à l'écologie dans le contexte d'une relecture du modernisme allemand. Par ailleurs, de même que l'importance de reconnaître le rôle historique qu'ont joué les médias dans la perception de la vie, autant dans la langue que dans la littérature allemande. En ce sens, la thèse a pour objectif de contribuer aux intérêts grandissants pour l'histoire de la pensée écologique et des médias, ainsi que le champs croissant de l'écocritique, autant en études allemandes que dans les autres les études littéraires.

Full text
Abstract:
The metamorphosis of man to beast has fascinated audiences for millennia. The werewolves of medieval literature were forced to conform to the Church's view of metamorphosis and, in so doing, transformed from bestial and savage to benevolent and rational. Analysis of Marie de France's Bisclavret, the anonymous Arthur and Gorlagon, the Irish tale The Crop-Eared Dog, and the French roman d'aventure Guillaume de Palerne reveals insight into medieval views of change, identity, and what it meant to exist in the medieval world. Each of these tales is told from the werewolf's point of view, and in each the wolf undergoes a fury or madness where he cannot seem to help turning savage and harming people. This 'rage of the wolf' lies at the root of the identities of these werewolves, reflecting the conflict between good and evil, the physical and the spiritual, and Church doctrine and a rapidly changing society.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter does not stress the marketisation of higher education rather focuses upon the way in which this is done; the marketingisation of higher education. I do not deny that widening access to skills that can fuel growth is a logical extension of a consumerist ideology. What follows acknowledges these structural changes and then focuses on how marketing is a consequence and reinforce of such structural change. Indeed there is a substantial literature which addresses it (e.g. Molesworth et al. Having, being and higher education: The marketization of the university and the transformation of the student into consumer. Teaching in Higher Education, 14(3), 277–287, 2009; Brown R, Carasso H, Everything for sale? The marketisation of UK higher education. Routledge, London, 2013). Nor does it support that marketingation has brought no or only limited contributions to higher education. The expansion of the privileges of higher education to the many from the few, the greater governance and transparency of the process and practices of higher education institutions in their compact with society and a clearer ways to evaluate these activities have, to varying degrees, enhanced higher education. These interventions have opened the market for world class universities (WCUs) allowing them global as well as local reach. Yet it is strange that these improvements are consequences of market interventions by Governments, by publishers in terms of league tables, and by employers in terms of preferred (mythical?) skill sets and not for educative purposes. The emergent practices encouraged by these interventions increase the influence of marketing and facilitate a metamorphosis of institutions from educational entities to market responsive service providers whose intent focuses on impact and enhanced return on capital. This leads WCUs into the endless and Sisyphusan striving, often devoid of any ultimate worthy end but ends which are an inevitable consequence of managing rapidly increasing competition and shifting demands effectively rather than educative priorities. The chapter describes and discusses the consequences.
