Abstract:
This study examined the relationship between performance anxiety and flow proneness. Ninety undergraduate music majors (52 females, 38 males) recruited from a major research university volunteered to participate. The data collection instrument consisted of two previously established inventories: the Performance Anxiety Inventory and the Music in Flow Inventory. As predicted, the data showed flow proneness to be significantly and negatively correlated with performance anxiety (r = −0.20, p = 0.034, one-tailed test). The data also supported a prediction that the ability to play/sing without dest

The article provides an overview of some recent works on cognitive poetics. Of particular interest are studies close to linguistic problematic of cognition in literary texts. A separate analysis tackles the case from the history of Russian thought about language and poetry – the theory of artistic (poetic) concepts by the Russian philosopher S. А. Askoldov. The paper also considers conceptions of Western-European linguists that emerged at the peak of the “cognitive turn” in the 1970s: theories of T. van Dijk and J. Lakoff – M.

Abstract:
In this paper we present a rhetorical genre analysis of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) National Inquiry. We focus on the concepts of meta-genre and genre hybridity in the context of social change to explore the dynamics of the MMIWG Inquiry as an instantiation of the “truth commission” (TC). Following Giltrow (2002), we treat meta-genre as advice and criticism from genre participants about how a genre should be performed. We apply Gready’s analysis (2011) of the TC as a hybrid genre that has emerged in the context of transitional justice and post-modern governance:

By contrast, the impulse to reveal in 1960s art was rooted in post-Duchampian practice, implicating artists as different as Lynda Benglis and Richard Hamilton, who mined the potential of an art that was without essence.
