Abstract:
<p><span>Legends, which include part of the folklore heritage, are one of the main genres of oral creativity of the Turkic peoples. In the world science of folklore and literary criticism, a large number of works have been published on the definition of theoretical descriptions of legends. As you know, one of the main genres of folk art is that historical events are preserved to a certain extent in legends, which creates some opportunities for us to understand and learn about our past history, our primordial national culture, our literature. It is known that in modern world folklore a structural-semantic concept is developing, which is aimed at identifying and classifying the specifics, genre features of folklore-epic genres, i.e., fairy tales, myths, legends, etc., features from all sides, is the basis for the classification of folklore genres, plot and motives. On the basis of this concept, one of the epic genres of Turkic folklore can become a theoretical basis for a comparative definition of issues of the artistic significance of legends. Therefore, in this article we have tried to describe the comparative analysis of typology of images on the example of Karakalpak and English folklore and their similarities, problems of typology are also determined.</span></p><p><span><strong>Keywords: </strong> Karakalpak, English, meaning, folklore, historical legend, historical figure, image, genre, hero, plot, typology.</span></p>

Abstract:
Genghis Khan is a great statesman and strategist in Chinese history, who has made outstanding contributions to the unification and development of China and exerted great influences on many countries or regions in Europe and Asia. The images of Genghis Khan presented in different historical records and literary works are completely different in the eyes of readers. His image presents to be a national hero, a benevolent Lord, an aggressor and a tyrant, which is full of controversy. In 2018, Legends of the Condor Heroes (English translation), one of the most famous masterpieces of Chinese martial arts novels, was published in the UK for the first time, attracting the attention of Western readers to Chinese martial arts novels. Genghis Khan, as one of the main characters in the novel, caught the eyes of readers again. Based on the theory of Reader-response criticism, this paper attempts to interpret the image of Genghis Khan in Legends of the Condor Heroes, and excavate his image connotation from another perspective.

This study aims to determine the Makassar Football Association, which is headquartered in Makassar, South Sulawesi province. The Makassar Football Association was founded on November 2, 1915 which at that time was still a football association called Makassar Voetbal Bond. Based on the historical background of his achievements, Makassar Voetbal Bond features male players in the elite ranks of Dutch East Indies football such as Sagi and Sangkala as reliable players who at that time were highly respected by Dutch players. The Makassar Football Association is known as the birthplace of young and talented football players. Talented young players include Ramang, Suardi Arlan, Nursalam and Maulwi Saelan. The player emerged and triumphed in the 1950-1970 era. Ramang is a football legend who came from PSM which at that time was still called Makassar Voetbal Bond. Ramang began strengthening the Makassar Football Association in 1947. This study uses a qualitative approach with historical methods through heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography.

<p>Bible as literature and Bible as religion are comparative. It is without doubt that Bible, as a religious doctrine, has played a great role in Judaism and Christianity. It is meanwhile a whole literature collection of history, law, ethics, poems, proverbs, biography and legends. As the source of western literature, Bible has significant influence on the English language and culture, English writing and modeling of characters in the subsequent time. Interpreting the female characters in the Bible would affirm the value of women, view the feminist criticism in an objective way and agree the harmonious relationship between the men and the women. </p>

Abstract:
Abstract The article is devoted to coarse uses of language as a subject of dispute in confessional controversies over legendary narration. Such metainvective forms of communication are systematized, and questioned with regard to their functions: in the Protestant Lügenden (word combination of “legend” and “lie,” lying legends) and their Catholic replies, the “true” faith and its defense are connected with communicative behavior. Whereas Lutherans are above all effective at adopting coarse speech and the metainvective reproach of lying, the Counter-Reformation argumentation develops the strategic potential of metainvective communication in very different ways. Metainvective statements become a weapon particularly when they are absorbed into figures of meta-metainvective, which not only display the coarse speech but reveal and then criticize the strategy behind it. The tension between polemical prefaces and annotated miracle narratives in the Lügenden as well as the thematic proliferation of the legend discussion in the Catholic reports and sermons are ultimately shown to be genre-dynamic effects of the use of metainvectives.

Abstract:
In the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries pre-modern Islamic past and imperial present of the Turkic Muslim peoples in the Ural-Volga region became the object of meticulous study for Muslim historians-reformers, who belonged themselves to these peoples, like Shihab al-Din Marjani, Rida’ al-Din Fakhreddinov, Murad Ramzi, Munir Hadi, Hasan-Ata Gabashi, Hadi Atlasi. This article presents to readers the first results of a comparative investigation of their historical works with the focus made on the works by Murad Ramzi. The author argues that the historical works under study, though they were composed in the traditional ta’rikh (in Pl. tawarikh) genre typical for the Islamic bookish tradition, form a transitional type from the Muslim chronicle to the national positivist historiography based on the scientific method of historical sources criticism. They share typical settings of traditional Muslim historiography, yet experience a strong influence of the positivist scholarship in Western Europe and Russia dating the second half of the 19th century. These works are brought together by a sharp criticism of the content of Muslim chronicles, which were still popular among the reading Muslim public at the turn of the 20th century. Their authors attempted to rewrite critically the history of their own peoples, without departing from Islamic foundations, but taking into account benefits of modern positivist scholarship. They all including Ramzi aimed at seeking for objective truth, freed from errors and superstitions of folk legends.

AbstractThis article describes the history of the objects stored at the Mauerbach monastery in Austria from soon after the Second World War until their auction last year. During the war, the German National Socialists had collected art works throughout Europe in many different ways—through theft, confiscation, forced sales, and legitimate sales. Both the legal issues raised by the attempts to determine the rightful owners of these objects and the criticism which the Austrian government received for failing to find more of these owners are discussed. The situation was finally resolved last year when the remaining objects were auctioned and the proceeds given to various organizations representing the victims of the Nazis.At long last, the story of the “Mauerbach Treasure” has been concluded. This hoard of art objects has been the source of many legends owing to the secrecy, including even the identification of the objects themselves, which had surrounded it for many years.1

Full text
Abstract:
The need to better understand the supernatural is an ever-engaging aspect of any enquiry into the matter due to the changing paradigms of time and space and the existence of numerous misconceptions and observations concerning the same. Such is a case of the legend of U Thlen and the nongshohnoh phenomenon of Meghalaya, a north-eastern state in the sovereign country of India. U Thlen, an evil mystical being, is described in Khasi legends and recounted in Khasi folklore as an entity thirsty for human blood and never satiated. He was, however, tricked and captured by the Khasi people but never ultimately destroyed. As an act of deception – of reward and mainly revenge, U Thlen promised people riches in exchange for human sacrifice. An existing belief is that U Thlen was adopted by a Khasi household which saw the beginning of the nongshohnoh or the “cut throat” phenomenon. The surrounding belief about the keeping of U Thlen functions on the basis of prevailing social notions that human sacrifice offered to U Thlen equates to riches. While the legend of U Thlen has witnessed transcendence from narratives to lived realities over an incredible part of the history of the Khasi people, the nongshohnoh phenomenon has seen its fair share of criticism with time as well. It is in this regard that this study aims to (re)look into this very phenomenon as a living reality of the Khasi society. This paper also aims to look at existing beliefs and disbeliefs in U Thlen and the nongshohnoh phenomenon in order to arrive at an understanding, proper to the contemporary setting of the Khasi society, in the twenty-first century.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of the study is to consider feminist retellings of myths and legends. As an example, Margaret Atwood’s book The Penelopiad is analyzed. The interpretation is situated in a broader context of intertextual practices characteristic of the feminist vision of literature. I present the ideas which Atwood shares with authors engaged in women’s movement. Among these there is Atwood’s understanding of intertextuality (noticeable especially in The Penelopiad). Bibliographical basis of the study comprises books which are fundamental to feminist and gender criticism (e.g. Poetics of Gender, ed. by N. Miller, New York 1986; S. M. Gilbert, S. Gubar The Madwoman in the Attic. The Woman Writer and the Nineteenth- Century Literary Imagination, New Haven and London 1984). What is more, the study refers to the books which allow considering the notion of intertextuality (G. Allen, Intertextuality, London and New York 2010, J. Clayton. E. Rothstein (eds.), Influence and Intertextuality in Literary History, Wisconsin 1991) and connecting the interpretation with the problems crucial to contemporary literary studies (L. Hutcheon L. A Poetics of Postmodernism. History, Theory, Fiction, New York and London 1988, B. Johnson, A World of Difference, Baltimore and London 1989).

Abstract:
The fantastic stands as an important part of Chinese culture. It is in fact through its literature that it has been made possible for us to enjoy this heritage. With the study of fantastic tales and anomaly accounts, this thesis tackles the problem of rationalism in relation with supernatural. It attempts to understand the mechanisms of the intermingling of the concepts of fiction and history, through the comparison of Chinese historical and fictional texts, as well as parallels between China and Europe. It will also deal with the concepts of nature, in both the perspectives of China and Europe, and the Enlightenment.

Full text
Abstract:
As the title suggests, this paper sets out to present and explain the development of the traditions concerning the figure of R. Hanina b. Dosa from a sociological viewpoint. Following the ‘rediscovery’ of R. Hanina b. Dosa in the early 19703 by Geza Vermes,1 a new wave of interest in this first century personality emerged among both New Testament and rabbinical studies scholars. If at first the interest shown derived from the apparent parallels between some of the Hanina traditions and several of the Gospel stories of Jesus, at a later stage scholars turned to study the Hanina traditions for their own merit, especially in relation to the development and formation of Tannaic and Amoraic Judaism. Following the realisation that writings of late antiquity do not simply record historical data, but rather preach a socio-religious message, it is now held among most New Testament scholars, as well as many rabbinical studies scholars, that research into those fields should focus on the study of the sociology of the communities from which the texts under discussion emerged, alongside and as a completion to the study of the texts themselves. Hence by placing traditions under a literary, historical and critical analysis, current research attempts to shed light on the way in which those traditions were shaped by the communities they emerged from, in view of the communities’ own development. As well, such research attempts to explain how traditions shaped the lives of the ones who received them. In other words, attempts are made to learn the socio-religious concerns of societies in late antiquity via the information preserved in the literature such communities left behind. For as Gerd Theissen phrases it: “There is a correspondence between the social groups which handed down the tradition and the tradition itself.” In this paper there will be an extensive use of form critical methods. Those methods which have been developed by New Testament scholars such as R. Bultmann, M. Dibelius, J. Jeremias, R.H. Fuller and G. Theissen. Such methods have been especially applied to rabbinical studies by J. Neusner, B.M. Bokser, W.S. Green, S. Freyne, and many others who do not specifically deal with our topic. In this paper we set out to present and analyse the full data presented in the rabbinical literature: Mishnah, Tosefta, Palestinian and Babylonian Talmuds, and other midrashim. As well, an attempt shall be made to relate the information preserved in the texts to the study of the life of the communities that created and preserved those texts.

Neidorf, Leonard. "The Origins of Beowulf: Studies in Textual Criticism and Literary History." Thesis, Harvard University, 2014. http://dissertations.umi.com/gsas.harvard:11366.

Full text
Abstract:
Beowulf is preserved in a single manuscript written out around the year 1000, but there are many reasons to believe that the poem was composed several centuries before this particular act of manual reproduction. Most significantly, the meter of Beowulf reveals that the poet regularly observed distinctions of etymological length that became phonologically indistinct before 725 in Mercia. This dissertation gauges the explanatory power of the hypothesis that Beowulf was composed about three centuries before the production of the extant manuscript. The following studies test the hypothesis of archaic composition by determining whether it is able to accommodate independent forms of evidence drawn from the fields of linguistics, textual criticism, and literary history.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
Esta tese tem como objetivo principal a análise das Lendas e Narrativas, para, do ponto de vista histórico e ficcional, demonstrar a tentativa de Herculano de transformar, atento ao projeto romântico, o medievo português em patrimônio cultural. Captar o olhar romântico do autor, voltado para o passado medieval na construção da identidade cultural portuguesa, foi o segundo objetivo que se nos impôs. Para tanto, dividimos o estudo em seis capítulos, enfatizando em cada um o papel que o discurso da História desempenha nessa ficção. As sete narrativas são analisadas através da discussão dos enredos, à luz de correntes teóricas contemporâneas, para detectar as peculiaridades de cada uma, com ênfase no diálogo que se estabeleceu entre o discurso da literatura e o da História, no ato da criação ficcional. Grosso modo, concluímos que, em Lendas e Narrativas, o autor pretendeu conservar a memória de intensas experiências, compreendendo tanto a tradição ibérica quanto a transformação dessa mesma tradição, que assume o papel de produtora de elementos novos. Em seus textos, representa-se a construção da própria identidade, das marcas basilares da literatura do século XIX e até de algumas do século posterior. Pensar a questão da memória literária em Lendas e Narrativas obriga, assim, a reconhecer a produção literária como um sistema de diálogos, de trocas e de apropriações, impulsionado por um jogo de forças interativas. A diversidade de personagens presentes na obra a constitui um tecido intrincado e exemplar do gênero ficção histórica, na esteira de Walter Scott. A leitura aqui feita, norteou-a o propósito principal de contribuir para o (re)conhecimento desta obra fundamental do Romantismo português, acrescido de outro, talvez pretensioso, de abrir perspectivas para novas abordagens. Este contínuo interpretar a história, renovando seu significado, dando-lhe diferentes interpretações, assemelha- se a percorrer uma trilha que, sempre renovada, leva à descoberta de novas e fascinantes leituras.
The main objective of this thesis is to analyse the historical short stories in Lendas e Narrativas, so as to demonstrate, from both historical and fictional points of view, Herculanos attempt to change the Portuguese medieval period into a cultural inheritance, following the romantic artistic project. The second objective is to capture the romantic view of the author, who looked back to medieval times, in order to build a Portuguese cultural identity. The investigation is divided into six chapters, each one emphasizing the function that historical discourse represents in Herculanos fiction. In the light of contemporary theories, the seven narratives are analysed through the discussion of the plots (intrigues), to detect the peculiarities of each one. The emphasis is on the dialogue established between the discourses of Literature and History, within the texts, at the moment of creation. In broad terms, the research concludes that in Lendas e Narrativas the author intended to keep the memory of intense experiences, involving both the Iberian traditions and the transformation of these traditions, which assume the role of producer of new elements. This experience constructs the identity of the basic characteristics of nineteenth century Portuguese literature and even some characteristics of literature in the following century. Reflecting on the question of literary memory in Lendas e Narrativas thus demands the recognition that literary production is a system of dialogues, exchanges and appropriations that are activated by a play of interactive forces. The diversity of characters in the book makes it an intricate weave of historical fiction in the tradition of Walter Scott. The present study intends to contribute to the recognition of this essential work in Portuguese Romanticism and, perhaps ambitiously, to open up perspectives for new research. This continuous movement of interpreting history, renewing its significance, and providing it with different interpretations is a pathway to the discovery of fascinating new readings.

L'Official, Pete Thomas. "Urban Legends: The South Bronx in Representation and Ruin." Thesis, Harvard University, 2014. http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:13065024.

Full text
Abstract:
"Urban Legends: The South Bronx in Representation and Ruin" examines the construction of the South Bronx in the American imagination during the 1970s and 1980s--a time when the South Bronx was synonymous with the failures of urbanism. The project attempts a multidisciplinary excavation of the cultural manifestations of urban ruin as articulated through the histories, literatures, and visual arts produced within and inspired by the ruins of the Bronx. The dissertation contends that Bronx ruins offered a site for visual artists, writers, and photographers to create new ways of understanding the production and perception of urban environments, while shaping the forms and styles that these creations took. The project theorizes the emergence and legacy of these forms alongside what it terms "municipal art": public works of city governmental bodies which, themselves, responded to ruin, and that might also be read as art. The dissertation's first part places the building cuts of the artist Gordon Matta-Clark in dialogue with the trompe l'oeil window decals of New York's "Occupied Look" program. It argues, on one hand, that Matta-Clark's artworks employ the tactics and effects of trompe l'oeil, and, on the other, that the seemingly failed "Occupied Look" project presents, upon close examination, vastly more interesting questions about temporality, duration, stasis within the built environment. The dissertation's second part views 1980s New York City Department of Finance tax assessment photographs within and against documentary and conceptual art contexts to reveal aesthetic debts owed by photographers and artists to "administrative" or systematic modes. The dissertation argues that these tax photos, despite their empirical intention, are inevitably productive of narrative, and demand an empathetic model of viewership that gestures at historic ruin-gazing while puncturing mythological understandings of urban ruin. The dissertation's third part examines how the popular fiction of Tom Wolfe and Don DeLillo imagined the Bronx built environment. The dissertation argues that the infrastructures that animate these portions of their fiction--abhorred in one and celebrated in the other--bind the South Bronx to city, making it less an alienated nowhere than one that is intimately tied to the world around it.

Abstract:
It has been nearly two decades since Sarah Whiting, Bob Somol, Michael Speaks and Stan Allen, declared that architectural design practice should break from what they described as a design culture bogged down with theory, and restrained by what they called the “critical project.” This paper returns to the twin problematic of post theory and post critique. Yet it approaches the topic from a more institutional perspective, developing a new diagnosis based on the fate of institutional arrangements within schools of architecture involving the creation of “history, theory, and criticism” in the mid-1960s and its relation to design practice. It returns to papers delivered by Peter Collins, Bruno Zevi, Sibyl Moholy-Nagy, and Stephen Jacobs at the 1964, ACSA-AIA Cranbrook Teachers Seminar in order to revisit a number of arguments about why schools of architecture should develop a particular relationship to history within their own institutional context, different from art history and uniquely tied to theory and criticism; and how this development would enable studio design practices to be critical. Despite this institutional settlement, which gave birth to a new form of history inside schools of architecture that promised to transform practice into a new critical mode, larger processes of academic growth during the 1980s and 1990s have led to a severance of this relationship and a return to something close to what Collins, Zevi, Moholy-Nagy and Jacobs criticized when they challenged architectural education’s derivation of its history from the independent field of art history, which they deemed too disengaged from creative practice. The paper argues that our posttheoretical and post-critical situation within the culture of architectural design has more to do with the changing institutional configuration within education: namely the professionalization and thus polarization of history and design, and the erasure of the mediating field of theory and criticism.

Abstract:
в философии истории ХХ в. можно выделить двоякую тенденцию. С одной стороны, классическая философия истории подвергается радикальной критике (в немецкой философской герменевтике, французском структурализме и постструктурализме, англоязычной аналитической философии), а с другой стороны, она продолжается и развивается в различных концепциях и теориях («столкновение цивилизаций» С. Хантингтона, «конец истории» Ф. Фукуямы). Такая двойственность (критика философии истории и ее развитие) не является характеристикой только нашей современности. Выдающийся немецкий филолог и философ Фридрих Шлегель (1772–1829) в ситуации философской революции рубежа XVIII–XIX вв. постарался соединить эти две позиции в одну, что и стало предметом анализа автора статьи. in the philosophy of the history of the twentieth century, a twofold tendency can be distinguished. On the one hand, the classical philosophy of history is subjected to radical criticism (in German philosophical hermeneutics, French structuralism and poststructuralism, English-speaking analytical philosophy), and on the other hand, it continues and develops in various concepts and theories (S. Huntington's "clash of civilizations", "end of history" F. Fukuyama). Such duality (criticism of the philosophy of history and its development) is not a characteristic only of our modernity. The outstanding German philologist and philosopher Friedrich Schlegel (1772–1829), in the situation of the philosophical revolution at the turn of the 18th–19th centuries, tried to combine these two positions into one, , which became the subject of the analysis of the author of the article.

Abstract:
The Legends of Tōno by Yanagita Kunio (1875–1962) is considered to be a Japanese folklore classic and an excellent literary work as well. This fact caused a long-standing debate about the “authenticity” and “fictionality” of this work. This article analyzes the key part of the book — the “mountain people” series of stories, and finds that this image has three prototypes in the real world: monsters in folk belief, the Ainu people of Japan, and the indigenous peoples of colonial Taiwan. This article further analyzes Yanagida Kunio’s attitude towards Japanese colonialism and finds that he fundamentally opposed the barbarism of Japanese colonialism. In the text of The Legends of Tōno, the author arranged three narrative models of the “mountain people scare the villagers” and finally constructed a holistic literary narrative logic, showing the ideal model of peaceful coexistence between lowlanders and mountain people, or colonizers and indigenous peoples.

Abstract:
The subject of the study is the cooperation of S. Efremov with Western Ukrainian periodicals as a page in the history of Ukrainian journalism which covers the relationship of journalists and scientists of Eastern and Western Ukraine at the turn of the XIX-XX centuries. Research methods (biographical, historical, comparative, axiological, statistical, discursive) develop the comprehensive disclosure of the article. As a result of scientific research, the origins of Ukrainocentrism in the personality of S. Efremov were clarified; his person as a public figure, journalist, publisher, literary critic is multifaceted; taking into account the specifics of the memoir genre and with the involvement of the historical context, the turning points in the destiny of the author of memoirs are interpreted, revealing cooperation with Western Ukrainian magazines and newspapers. The publications ‘Zoria’, ‘Narod’, ‘Pravda’, ‘Bukovyna’, ‘Dzvinok’, are secretly got into sub-Russian Ukraine, became for S. Efremov a spiritual basis in understanding the specifics of the national (Ukrainian) mass media, ideas of education in culture of Ukraine at the end of XIX century, its territorial integrity, and state independence. Memoirs of S. Efremov on cooperation with the iconic Galician journals ‘Notes of the Scientific Society after the name Shevchenko’ and ‘Literary-Scientific Bulletin’, testify to an important stage in the formation of the author’s worldview, the expansion of the genre boundaries of his journalism, active development as a literary critic. S. Yefremov collaborated most fruitfully and for a long time with the Literary-Scientific Bulletin, and he was impressed by the democratic position of this publication. The author’s comments reveal a long-running controversy over the publication of a review of the new edition of Kobzar and thematically related discussions around his other literary criticism, in which the talent of the demanding critic was forged. S. Efremov steadfastly defended the main principles of literary criticism: objectivity and freedom of author’s thought. The names of the allies of the Ukrainian idea L. Skochkovskyi, O. Lototskyi, O. Konyskyi, P. Zhytskyi, M. Hrushevskyi in S. Efremov’s memoirs unfold in multifaceted portrait descriptions and function as historical and cultural facts that document the pages of the author’s biography, record his activities in space and time. The results of the study give grounds to characterize S. Efremov as the first professional Ukrainian-speaking journalist.

Abstract:
China is the subject of Western criticism for its supposed disregard of the rules-based international order. Such a charge implies that China is unilateralist. The aim in this study is to explain how China does in fact have a multilateral approach to international relations. China’s core idea of a community of shared future of humanity shows that it is aware of the need for a universal foundation for world order. The Research Report focuses on explaining the Chinese approach to multilateralism from its own internal perspective, with Chinese philosophy and history shaping its view of the nature of rules, rights, law, and of institutions which should shape relationships. A number of case studies show how the Chinese perspectives are implemented, such as with regards to development finance, infrastructure projects (especially the Belt and Road Initiative), shaping new international organisations (such as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank), climate change, cyber-regulation and Chinese participation in the United Nations in the field of human rights and peacekeeping. Looking at critical Western opinion of this activity, we find speculation around Chinese motives. This is why a major emphasis is placed on a hermeneutic approach to China which explains how it sees its intentions. The heart of the Research Report is an exploration of the underlying Chinese philosophy of rulemaking, undertaken in a comparative perspective to show how far it resembles or differs from the Western philosophy of rulemaking.
