Abstract:
<p>Character profile and the system of images as a whole demonstrates the binary structure based on the mythological tradition. Double character of the nature motif pervades the folklore tradition, which is the most demonstratively revealed by the twin motif, where two brothers at the same time are both opposites and complement each other. The paper has applied the structural semiotic method, using opinions of the Russian philologist and culture historian Eliza Meletinskii (Елеазар Мелетинский) on the connection of binary oppositions with the mythological metaphorism and pairs of binary

Abstract:
The present research paper focuses on the spiritual journey actualised by the protagonist Som Bhaskar in Arun Joshi's novel The Last Labyrinth (1981). Its main objective is to explore the why and the how of the protagonist's spiritual attainment. Perturbed by the hollowness of the society, the inner chaos and the uncertainty of life, and fretted by the insubstantial hunger and spiritual alienation, Bhaskar experiences a profound discomfort and disconnectedness from both the external world and his inner self, and therefore, he is in constant search for the meaning of life in this materialist wo

Abstract:
Nikolai Leskov is known for his love of language game, puns, rarely used words and word creation — he usually employs all these tactics for constructing a narrator’s image. One of his most poorly studied works is of particular interest in this regard. Notes of the Unknown (1884) is a collection of short anecdotes, mainly from the life of the clergy. In this particular series, Leskov, while imitating someone else’s speech, also bares the narrator’s hypocrisy and turns his clerical rhetoric into an object of parody, the purpose of which is to indicate the need for the transition from state Ortho

The experimental material comprised anecdotes and parodic aphorisms, including the word culture and / or its derivatives; and the analytical approach employed combined content-analysis, contextual-semantic, stylistic, comparative, and interpretive analyses.

This article discusses the continuity of Konstantin Stanislavsky’s pedagogy directly to his disciple Vasily Toporkov, and from him to his students Oleg Yefremov and Oleg Tabakov. Toporkov joined the Moscow Art Theatre (MAT) as an actor eleven years before Stanislavsky’s death, which allowed him to participate in the final phase of Stanislavsky’s life’s work and his development of the method of psychophysical actions. Struck by Stanislavsky’s authority, scrutiny, and caring attitude towards all actors, as well as other co-workers of the theatre, Toporkov transmitted this legacy, together with t

Abstract:
Among the Teso of Western Kenya, Ekutet (the exhumation ceremony) has for centuries been practised to treat physical, mental, and/or emotional problems. A family’s, or the community’s, persistent misfortunes such as frequent deaths, illnesses, accidents, or unexplained feuds and such other grief causing occurrences may be attributed to an unhappy dead member of the family or community. To correct the situation and bring life back to normal, the unhappy dead member’s bones are exhumed, either for reburial or display in a sacred place.

Abstract:
Chapter 7 shows how many (if not quite all) of the anecdotes in ʿAttar’s masnavis follow a common narrative pattern: they seem to invoke common-sense religious expectations only to suddenly overturn them in favour of radical, more demanding and frequently counter-intuitive interpretations of well-worn religious norms. These narrative reversals are informed by sufism’s emphasis on sincerity and its tendency to invert common-sense religious valuations, along with deep rooted notions of conversion and repentance as a sudden, unpredictable event that results in a total life reorientation.

Chapter 7 looks at the sermons of Ashraf ‘Ali Thanavi, known for the Bihishti Zewar, his best-selling advice book for female readers. At first sight, Thanavi fitted perfectly into the pattern of reading reformist Islam as a contributing force both to modernity and to the disciplining project. The ideal and the practices he encouraged seemed to aim at a constant vigilance over the movements of the soul and at a control of emotional outbursts. However, in apparent contradiction, the anecdotes surrounding Thanavi’s life point to a valuation of religious passions. His sermons very often overwhelme
