Abstract:

The present article discusses Paul Georgescu’s short story O viziune a Paradisului [A Vision of Paradise] focusing on the main character’s revelatory experiences and placing them in relationship with various views on happiness exposed by the writer in other circumstances. At the same time, the intertextual strategies used by the author in order to dismantle certain stereotypes and clichés are analysed not only through the lens of modernism/ postmodernism dichotomy, but also in connection with the concept of literary balcanism. From the perspective of today’s reader, Paul Georgescu’s novels and

Abstract:

What is the essence of heaven? If you had to pick a single moment in your life to spend eternity in as your personal heaven, would you do it, and what moment would you pick? In this philosophical short story fiction, the narrator, in a semi-dream state, watches a bit of a late-night movie where the main character dies, goes to heaven, and must work with the bureaucrats of heaven to pick the moment in their lives they would like to live in forever as their personal heaven. This idea germinates in the narrator’s mind and she is forced to weight various moments in her life in an attempt to pick w

Abstract:

This article discusses the representation of AIDS in Guibert's posthumously published novel Le Paradis (Paradise). The novel is situated in relation to Guibert's better known previous AIDS writings. The article proposes that Guibert's AIDS works fall in to three related categories: writings about other peoples' AIDS; autobiographical writings about AIDS, and, in the third, terminal stage in which Le Paradis fits, writing (about) AIDS. As such the article suggests that Le Paradis manages to reflect and communicate some of the trauma of living with AIDS by specifically trying not to write about

Abstract:

Abstract: For much of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, probability had been a quality of the propositions, sentences, and arguments extracted from a larger work for the purpose of example and instruction. But in the late seventeenth century, the concept grew into a criterion for the judgment of works in their entirety. The scenes of argument in Paradise Lost (1667) turned humanist convention against itself, and in so doing, helped usher probability into "the principal rule" of literary criticism: that fiction—irreducible to any of its parts, autonomous from the demands of teaching—shou

This article explores the potential of science fiction as a "thought experiment in public administration." Science fiction may explore existing ideas and practices in ways not possible otherwise. Thus, it is possible to contemplate on the functioning of entirely authoritarian regimes, as well as, utterly egalitarian and paradise like culturesm and work our their administrative needs and solutions This "radical approach" to administration can aid our understanding.

Abstract:

Abstract: Riadh Hadir's work of dystopian fiction, Pupille , tells of a post-apocalyptic future, in which Africa below the Sahara has purportedly been irradiated and rendered inhospitable to life. Yet the novel's protagonists discover an entirely alternate reality, as they undertake a trans-Saharan migration towards an African utopia. While Pupille critiques Africa's absence from Maghrebi futuristic literature and reverses the geographic direction of migration narratives to point them south beyond the Sahara, it also continues to grapple with the divorcing of "the Maghreb" from "Africa".

Abstract:

This thesis includes a story collection and an exegesis that complicate ideas that the Gold Coast is simply a holidayworld with a criminal underbelly. Cultural texts imbue the Gold Coast with an otherworldly aura—one that mythologises the city as jointly being paradise and paradise lost. Low-income and disenfranchised locals simultaneously embody a sense of alienation and belonging in their lived experience of the Gold Coast. Their anxieties become projected onto the sea and the sky, where memories of invasion and evidence of climate change amplify their internal struggles.

Abstract:

In response to theoretical inquiries into the decline in the production of utopian literature, this dissertation argues that the decline or, rather, the "postmodern" loss of faith in utopian literature and utopian thinking results from the neo-liberal globalization of capitalism and its material and discursive/ideological appropriation of global space. To demonstrate this thesis, the dissertation examines the invariably dystopic imaginative geographies in the fiction of J. G. Ballard. By analyzing the historical-geographical discursive context of Ballard's imaginative geographies, the disserta

Abstract:

This study concerns itself with the phenomenon of literary encyclopaedism, as especially evident in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake, Philippe Sollers' Paradis and Ezra Pound's Cantos. The study focuses on developing the notion of an encyclopaedic literary mode and on establishing the existence of a genre of fictional encyclopaedias. It finds an encyclopaedic mode in literature to be one comprehending and imitating other literary modes, both mimetic and didactic. Further, the idea of a fictional encyclopaedia is developed through an understanding of the traits of the neighbouring forms of essay, M

Elle vise à comprendre dans quelle mesure les images verbales et mentales sont pertinentes dans la construction d’une esthétique et d’une épistémologie saeriennes. A partir d’une analyse des images verbales et mentales dans l’œuvre de Saer, cette étude veut non seulement montrer que description et narration sont intimement liées, mais que le

The article shows that along with the use of Dostoevsky's precedent texts as signs of high culture, the modern media space also actively manifests the features of the postmodern cultural paradigm. The specifics of the latter include metatextuality, irony, various kinds of transformation, e.g., in
