Abstract:

The article focuses on a specific extension of the concept WHITE SILENCE in the “Northern stories” by Jack London. The concept WHITE SILENCE is one of the most interesting concepts not only in the literary works of J. London, but also in American culture. Applying the statements of the concept layers structure, we discover that the figurative layer of the concept WHITE SILENCE consists of the ten conceptual features as “territorial area”, “ice”, “cold”, “snow”, “frost”, “silence”, “mental illnesses”, “famine”, “pain”, “physical death”. It also includes three microconcepts LANDSCAPE, NOTHERN NA

Abstract:

In this article we explore the relationship between silence and literacy, employing autoethnography and poetry as inquiry, highlighting how silence enhances meaning making in literacy practices. Silence is positioned not merely as an absence of sound or words but as a dynamic element integral to textual engagement and interpretation. Through an analysis of personal poetic texts, using Heidegger’s concept of dwelling thinking and Barthes's idea of Work and Text, we demonstrate how silence operates on multiple levels, coexisting with words and resonating in the learner’s contemplative spaces.

Abstract:

Measures towards post-conflict or post-authoritarian justice have historically relied on the merging of the concepts of silence, violence and impunity in order to create a single promise of justice. Scholars and practitioners in the field usually defend a trifold agenda of breaking the silence about violations of human rights, denouncing systematic violence in the past and fighting impunity as the only way of ensuring that violence never happens again. This trope was mobilized in Brazil in 2014, when the report of the country’s National Truth Commission (CNV) was released. However, in the Braz

However, the colonial legacy continues to pervade Daoud’s own narrative particularly in his portrayal of contemporary Algeria and Islam. There are unresolved contradictions in the fabric of Daoud’s text as well as a silence that emerges from a hyperbolic bavardage.

Abstract Silence is an important aspect of Wordsworth’s treatment of sound and the auditory imagination. With different emphases, a number of critics have attended to the significance of silence in Wordsworth’s poetry. Various other scholars have addressed the notion of community in Wordsworth’s silence. Their readings encourage a reappraisal of Wordsworth’s poetics of silence as a mode of mournful reconciliation with forgotten communities.

‘Silence’ refers to the forbearance from ambient audible sounds and writings. In a rhetorical context, silence can be seen as a gesture of the ‘pregnant pause’, where the moment of silence denotes the omission of noise and signifies a space left for ponderous thoughts. Silence itself is an expression well described by authors like Thomas Hardy, Maya Angelou, J.M. Coetzee, Stephen King, and Jay Asher. Since, the concept of silence is intertwined with violating women’s honour, it finds its expression in the form of psychological trauma and incomprehensible emotions. In Disgrace, J.M Coetzee shat

Abstract:

Stanley Cavell roams across a wide range of fields in his first book, Must We Mean What We Say? most obviously those of epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics. But nowhere in the book’s ten essays does he advance an explicit political theory. Still, this book, published in 1969 and written over the course of the preceding decade, quietly poses persistent political questions, even in essays on such topics as skepticism and King Lear, Kierkegaard’s Book on Adler and Beckett’s Endgame, atonal music and ordinary language philosophy. Just who is the “we” spoken of in the book’s title (we philosophers

Abstract This essay troubles the application of Marianne Hirsch's concept of “postmemory” to the Cambodian postwar generation's relationship to the Khmer Rouge regime and the war, instead proposing the term “nonmemory” as a description of what we who are not survivors of that war tend to understand as an absence of narrative regarding the war and the regime. In doing so, it calls attention not to the silence of Cambodian survivors but to Cambodian American second-generation treatments of survivor silence. Instead of “breaking the silence,” it offers for the purposes of deep and critical contem

Abstract:

AbstractDrawing on postcolonial and feminist writings, this article re-examines securitization theory’s so-called ‘silence-problem’. Securitization theory sets up a definably colonial relationship whereby certain voices cannot be heard, while other voices try to speak for those who are silenced. The article shows that the subaltern cannot securitize, first, because they are structurally excluded from the concept of security through one of three mechanisms: locutionary silencing, illocutionary disablement, or illocutionary frustration. Second, the subaltern cannot securitize because they are al

Commentant l’un des principaux arguments de l’anthropologue Michel-Rolph Trouillot (Silencing the Past. Power and the Production of History, 1995), l’historienne Ada Ferrer affirme, en 2012, que si la révolution haïtienne a été accueillie par le silence, « ce fut un silence retentissant ». On peut utiliser ce même adjectif – retentissant – pour parler du prétendu silence des femmes haïtiennes et des écrivaines haïtiennes en particulier. Si de nombreux textes critiques s’articulent autour de ce concept, d’autres appellent à une remise en question de sa pertinence. Cet article analyse la façon d

Abstract:

AbstractThis article explores the semantic resources of biblical Hebrew, when it comes to speaking about silence. The aim is to reach more clarity concerning the sense and function of pertinent lexemes, and to contribute to a better understanding of the “semantic field” of silence. It is demonstrated that biblical Hebrew had several verbs with the sense “to be silent” (= abstain from speech), but no noun corresponding to the English word “silence” (denoting a situation characterized by the absence of speech or by the complete lack of audible sounds). However, the domains of silence and stillne

Abstract:

Because “rape” has such a powerful appraisive meaning, how one defines the term has normative significance. Those who define rape rigidly so as to exclude contemporary feminist understandings are therefore seeking to silence some moral perspectives “by definition.” I argue that understanding rape as an essentially contested concept allows the concept sufficient flexibility to permit open moral discourse, while at the same time preserving a core meaning that can frame the discourse.

Abstract:

The article analyzes the only known poetic cycle by Vasyl Haiduchok, published in the Skrynia maga-zine. The text is focused on the problem of silence, which is fundamental for Ukrainian underground poetry, in spite of being understood in different axiological and semantic planes. The article discovers how the concept of silence interacts with the Christian symbols, concepts of time and death, and traditional Ukrainian images. Being connected with the internal emigration as a constructive strategy of the author who resists the invasion of the aggressive Soviet language, the concept of unvoiced

The first part of the paper explores the concept of administrative silence and presents two dominant models of administrative silence: the negative model and the positive model. The second part focuses on administrative proceedings dealing with administrative silence, with specific reference to statutory time limits pertaining to legal protection against administrative silence.

Abstract:

The concept of silence is somewhat mercurial. Far from an absence of sound, various artists have explored the nuances of its construction, perhaps most famously by the composer John Cage in his seminal composition “4”33”. Despite this artistic exploration, examinations of silence as a feature of expression are scarce, as is an apt theorisation of what remains unspoken, and how this may be more powerful an expression than speech. By conceptualising silence through a political theory lens of power as social action upon boundaries, I argue that silence is used to establish, negotiate, and trouble

This research discusses “silence” within the concept of “Necro politics” in the Syrian context, aiming to observe the conceptual “space” that silence refers to and create, along with its political and performative meanings, especially when violently imposed on individuals. We will examine the term “officers of silence” in artistic and literary works, as well as in forms of obedience and protest-oriented public performances, in an attempt to understand the “officers of silence” authority and their political impact.
