Abstract:
The western image of Turks has changed throughout history in Europe especially in the Balkans, Central and East Europe since the countries in these regions are directly exposed to the sieges, invades and attacks of the Ottomans as frontiers. Even though the image evolves to a softer position due to the changeable strategies and policies of the countries, the metaphor is utilised in order to mythicize the past for an interpretation of the current situation. The image of Turks and the effects of the Ottomans have played a crucial role in the countries which encounter them as frontiers directly a

<p>O objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre as narrativas do escritor albanês Ismail Kadaré que dialogam com o universo dos poemas homéricos, em especial a epopeia <em>Ilíada</em>, e com os modos de composição desses poemas, com vistas a examinar o jogo intertextual estabelecido. Partimos de um trabalho com um corpus inicial composto por alguns romances selecionados da trajetória ficcional do autor. Em seguida, interessa-nos a questão da representação da guerra como elemento de conexão entre Ismail Kadaré e Homero, e, para tanto, aborda-se de modo mais detido o romance <em

Abstract:
Abstract In retrospect, the turning point in the Kildare rebellion came with the rebels’ failure to capture Dublin, and the ordnance, shot and powder in the king's castle there, during the long siege in summer and autumn 1534, in part because, as this article argues, the city's capture had not initially been seen as an immediate priority. Kildare kept back most of his ordnance and gunners to defend Maynooth castle, and historians have focused instead on the brief siege and capture of Maynooth by the king's army in March.

Abstract An (un)conventional encounter between humans and alien beings has long been one of the main thematic preoccupations of the genre of science fiction. Such stories would thus include typical invasion narratives, as in the case of the three science fiction films I will discuss in the present paper: the Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Don Siegel, 1956; Philip Kaufman, 1978; Abel Ferrara, 1993), The Host (Andrew Niccol, 2013), and Avatar (James Cameron, 2009).

This article analyzes Maria Sara, from the History of the Siege of Lisbon from the perspective of Lacanian materialism of Zižek. The narrative portrays the history of Portugal, but transforms it into an intertextual plot that transcends the literary, creating new narratives by intertwining fiction and reality. Saramago explores the existential and social issues that afflict the human being, reflecting his interest in the historical and the social. Using žižek's theory, which is based on dialectical and historical materialism, the article examines how these issues manifest themselves in the wor

Abstract This study outlines a reading of Saramago’s novels as tracing a reflective itinerary into history, questioning the modalities informing a contemporary consciousness, thus acknowledging and re–configuring the past. Through an interpretation of these narratives as ‘voyages into the idea of identity’ it is shown that they reveal a symmetrical pattern tracing the Portuguese national saga from its foundation myth in The History of the Siege of Lisbon to contemporary images of identity in The Stone Raft. In light of this, the analysis examines the subversive narrative strategies employed w

Abstract:
The nineteenth-century newspaper was a hybrid text, presenting both fact and fiction, often through reporting and the literary feuilleton respectively. The Siege of Paris upended daily life, making fact appear stranger than fiction, which led to a collapsing of the hybridity of newspapers, coalescing into one chronicle of the Siege. The press increasingly spread gossip dressed up as fact, fictionalized the news, and politicized fiction. Constantly rehashing and reframing the news, the press presented daily life itself as a departure from reality: the news itself became escapist.
