Abstract:
What wouldn’t you do for your faith? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, Lenore, attends her final Catholic confirmation class. The class is led by Ethel and Bishop Hernandez to the church basement, who reveal that the parish has been chosen for a “great honor” - one member must sacrifice their life in exchange for the parish to gain a miracle worker. Lenore, who had earlier claimed she would give her life for God, is pressured and selected for sacrifice. The story is a dark exploration of religious fanaticism, manipulation, and the dangers of blind faith.

Abstract:
Orientalism by Edward Said is the standard explanation of determining the West in relation to the East. However, Lisa Lu has reinvigorated it through her notion of re Orientalism, which aims to redefine West/East binaries in order to revitalize the image of the East. In contrast to Said's "Orientalism," which focuses on how the West builds the "Orient" and the "Occident," this theory looks at how eastern cultural producers respond to an "Orientalized" East and whether they choose to conform to or subvert the expectations of Western readers.In this perspective, the research interprets a selecti

Abstract:
Contemporary Nigerian fiction continues to engage deeply with themes of gender, migration, and socio-political conflict, yet the structural role of allusion remains underexplored. This paper aims to critically evaluate the role of historical, biblical and pop culture allusions in Chimamanda Adichie's Dream Count and Chika Unigwe's The Middle Daughter, arguing that allusion is not merely a literary embellishment but a central organizing principle in the texts. The study adopts textual analysis and draws on intertextuality theory to guide its interpretation. The paper examines how both authors d

Abstract:
Shashi Tharoor is a distinctivevoice in the Postcolonial Indian literature in English with his remarkable contribution of more than 16 works of fiction and non-fiction. Postcolonialism refers to a set of theoretical concepts, approaches and interventions which deals with the diverse effects of the interaction between the colonizer and the colonized. History, politics and culture have always been a dominant preoccupation of the Indian English novelists. The compulsive obsession was perhaps inevitable since the genre originated and developed concurrently with the climatic phase of colonial rule.

Abstract:
Few mainstream computer games have caused such controversy as Bioshock: Infinite (2013). The third instalment of the Bioshock series is set in the fictional city of Columbia in an alternate history of the early twentieth century, which at first glance appears to be a perfect social utopia. After a while, however, the narrative begins to uncover the multilayered problems of society oppressed by a fraction of the white elite and religious fanaticism. The popularity of the game is not only due to the attractive audiovisual processing and complex game mechanics. It is primarily a story that uses a

Abstract:
In the post-revolutionary era, the population's adoption of a new political vocabulary demanded the Soviet authorities to play the role of the interpretant. They engaged in the pro­cess of assigning meanings to new concepts through mass media and fiction. Simultaneously, established concepts had to undergo reshaping to align with the new worldview of the 'Soviet citizen’. The transformation of the semantic structure of religious vocabulary, ideologically marked, reflected the shift in the fundamental values of Soviet society.

Abstract:
Partition has evoked a significant body of work, be it literature, art, or films. Historians, political analysts, and social scientists have since put forward heart-rendering and mind-boggling chronological accounts of the tragedy's when, why, what, and how. There is no shortage of authentic documents or records available on the subject, written at different times. History, however, becomes an inadequate medium for reading partition: there is no need for fiction. The literature, therefore, lays aside history and tries to interrogate the entire issue differently. They are more concerned with ‘w

Abstract:
Like any genre or mode, the Gothic is malleable, changing according to time and place. This is particularly apparent when what is considered Gothic in one era is compared with that of another. The giant helmet that falls from the sky in Horace Walpole’s Castle of Otranto (1764) is a very different threat to the ravenous vampires that stalk the novels of Anne Rice, just as Ann Radcliffe’s animated portraits may not inspire anxiety for a contemporary reader of Stephen King. The mutability of Gothic is also apparent across various versions of national Gothic that have emerged, with the specificit

The chapter begins with a discussion of the literary renaissance in Scotland, Edwin’s engagement with it, and his friendship with Hugh MacDiarmid and James Whyte, the editor of The Modern Scot. Edwin and Willa are sent to Budapest in May 1932 as representatives of Scottish P.E.N. They are glad to be back in Europe, but it is not a happy occasion, tainted by a harsh Hungarian regime and shadows of fascism. On their return the Muirs decide to move to London, using an inheritance from Willa’s mother to rent a house in Hampstead. Here they will spend five happy years, in close
