Abstract:
The aim of this article is to illustrate the importance of the concept “mystery” in the classification of Sepedi detective stories. Mystery is therefore first defined, and then some rules governing how mystery is created and sustained in a narrative are reviewed. Examples are given of how the writers of Sepedi detective stories mislead their readers in order to create mystery. Mystery is then examined according to five of its constituent elements, namely the real character of the detective, the name of the criminal, the identity of the victim, the evidence that reveals the mystery in the end,

Abstract:
The element of mystery can be a naturally intriguing component of a mathematics lesson for middle school students. Mystery stories capture students“ interest and attention and contribute to developing critical-reading skills (Crouse and Bassett 1975; Curcio 1982; Scalzitti 1982). When presenting mystery stories within the context of a mathematics lesson, students often ask, “What does this have to do with mathematics?” Significant connections can be made between solving a mystery and solving a mathematics problem that supply a rationale for incorporating mystery stories in the mathematics clas

In this paper, we address mystery in curriculum development in a personal and storied way. We share our belief in the ongoing nature of mystery across time and situation, in the teaching life and beyond, into the worlds we inhabit in our daily lives with others. As self-study narrative researchers over many years, we turn to the work of Michael Connelly and Jean Clandinin, William Pinar, Ted Aoki and Maxine Greene to illustrate our perspective that mystery awaits us as we uncover new meaning in the seminal stories we have lived, and which inform us in present day learning and understanding in

What do we as architects envision as the design for a library? The Thesis is built upon the idea that Libraries should be designed out of stories, because stories are written in books and books are found in libraries. According to the writer Borges, the concept of a library, is that it is composed of an indefinite and infinite number of galleries, which are connected by vestibules. Anyone in thi

Raymond Chandler created his detective Philip Marlowe not as the idealisation of heroic individualism as is commonly perceived, but instead as an authentic individual subjected to very real psychological frailties resulting from his traumatic experiences during World War One. Marlowe's characterisation goes beyond the traditional chivalric readings and should instead be interpreted as an authentic representation of a traumatised veteran in American society.

Abstract:
Contrary to popular belief, Tartan Noir is not a synonym for Scottish noir but a mystifying marketing label for a national literature: dark, contemporary Scottish crime fiction. As it comprises an immense diversity of writing done in such mainstream sub-genres as detective, police, and serial killer fiction, as well as actual noir, I will investigate both the contrasts and the crossovers between said sub-genres. I will show that only few of the writers who are most associated with Tartan Noir write much, or any, noir, whereas most of those who do are not commonly associated with the term. With

In doing so, Sierra Leone has defied the fate of so many fragile and conflict-prone states: it has not returned to war, as do more than half of all countries within only five years of a peace settlement.

Abstract:
The stories of human creation in the biblical book of Genesis seem to place humanity at the heart of creation, but they can be and have been read in much more interesting ways. On many late ancient and medieval readings of creation, the body of a first human can be hard to tell from the body of everything else in the world, at times including god. This chapter draws on rabbinic, gnostic, and kabbalistic texts. It examines several points in the Jewish and Christian versions of these stories that displace the human from any central position, and often problematize the very notion of a center. Th

What stories are told, and ultimately tellable, has consequences for our ability to imagine the world otherwise.

After the wall opened, the narrator reads his Stasi file. Most remarkable to him was what was not there: there was no mention of the stolen book.
