Abstract:
When the industrial revolution and progressive tendencies in the nineteenth century influenced every sphere of life, literature could also not escape such trends. At that time, fiction (short story) was introduced as a new genre in literary world and soon it managed to generate a distinction. Like the other languages ​​of the world, fiction writers of Brahui literature also effectively adopted this genre. Among the pioneer Brahui fiction writers, the name of Gul Bangulzai is also well known who initiated the fiction writing. The effects of the progressive literary movement can be seen in his f

Abstract:
As her family name suggests, Jane Eyre is exceptionally responsive to changes in the weather. In her eponymous “autobiography,” Jane's ability to predict future events and assume an embodied—yet occasionally omniscient—insight alerts us to the ways in which Charlotte Brontë‘s fiction leverages the rise of climate science as a basis for successful female authorship. In opposition to the prevailing belief of the Victorian medical establishment that storms prompted hysteria and exacerbated symptoms of women's biological “periodicity,” Brontë‘s first published novel draws the sensitive body and in

Abstract:
Analysis of her 2015 novel, “Red Jacket” by author Pamela Mordecai showing how the tools of space and time were used to provide realism to the story. This was done by describing real events that happened over the space of the story including weather events, political events as well as geographical descriptions to give an idea of fictional locations. Red Jacket is neither fabulist tale nor historical fiction. It is a made-up story, set at a time marked by events, some real and some imaginary, and set in places, some real and some imaginary.

 In recent years, theories of space, atmosphere and weather have gained a foothold in literary analysis. In this article, I interpret Johannes V. Jensen’s canonical work of fiction The Fall of the King (1900-1901) on the basis of the spatial surroundings that the novel creates and that revolve around the protagonist Mikkel Thøgersen. I thereby claim that not only space, but also atmosphere and weather evoke different epistemologies that conflict throughout the novel. Last but not least I position the phenomenology of weather in The Fall of the King to Jensen’s oeuvre to emp

The novel explores how social and environmental degradation amidst the extreme weather and climate change in the fictional setting of America in 2024-2027 mirrors West Sumatra’s lack of preparedness to face similar situations in reality. The novel warns people of the consequences of environmental issues by addressing our vulnerabilities and resistance to change. Through the concept of “Earthseed”, the story reminds society

Abstract This article discusses Clare Pollard’s The Weather (Royal Court, 2004) with a focus on how the play critiques the widespread failure to assume responsibility for both personal and collective wrongdoing as symptomatic of the Anthropocene and Capitalocene.

Since the Anthropocene, there has been a significant increase in human-caused climate crises such as severe weather events, natural disasters and climate change around the globe. Climate fiction, which conveys the unique environmental experience of the Anthropocene, comes into being in this context. Research and criticism of climate fiction also followed. The representative works of contemporary climate fiction and their key critical concepts not only outline a broad spectrum of cultural analysis, but also depict a lasting mode of world existence and a broad prospect of the Anthropocene, provi

Is there such a thing as essential Irishness, something which can be encountered, on the one hand, as affect, and standardised on the other by political economy? A considerable number of artists, writers, theorists, critics, and citizens think so – even if they do not always phrase it in this way – and ‘Sacred Weather’ takes this possibility seriously. It also presents this possibility literally, in the sense of proposing an objective correlation for national feeling in national Stimmung, configured here as what Gayatri Spivak has called a ‘strategic essentialism’ in the rhetorical economy of

The stories explore the influence southern France's Roussillon region has on people, the way the proximity of the Spanish border and the Mediterranean shapes the inhabitants of Marcenac's daily lives, and the influence of the climate. Often, the Tramontane, the region's predominant wind, becomes a character. While some of the stories are told from a collective point of view, others r

Surrounded by nature and its reliable cycle, they are resisting change and denying the unpredictable randomness of life.

Chapter three explores the symbolic usage of rain, thunder and the rainbow in all the genres in which Ntuli writes. Chapter four deals with the imagery of the sun. The sun is shown

I am interested in how literature models a world in which climate change is not a future event but a present reality for its readers and, as part of my inquiry, how interdisciplinary approaches to models and modelling can broaden our understanding of the kind of knowledges and, with that, the kinds of worlds that models produce.

Abstract Can it be that little more than a decade ago, jazz singing was widely written off as a dead art? No one had come along to take the stages abandoned by Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, and Carmen McRae, though Betty Carter and Abbey Lincoln had survived the wilderness years to reassert their own claims as supreme individualists in an uncrowded field. They in turn influenced many young singers, which was a great relief from that strange period in the ‘70s when all black woman singers tried to sound like Aretha and all white woman singers tried to sound like Annie Ross—a trite landscape o

Poring through the still segregated CDs of ‘95, I doubled the lot again—musing foggily, for example, over Peter Kowald’s solo bass album (Was Da Ist, FMP). Let’s give it a second spin.

When the play traveled to the United States in 1922, the New York Times called it “a Czecho-Slovak Frankenstein.” Isaac Asimov was somewhat less charitable in a 1979 essay: “Capek’s play is, in my own opinion, a terribly bad one, but it is immortal for that one word.

Abstract The subject of the greatest surviving lyric poetry is not love nor death but athletic games. That we have manuscripts only of Pindar’s Victory Odes is a result of a selection made by schoolmasters in late antiquity, but we are lucky to have victory odes rather than hymns or dithyrambs or paeans, because unlike most other Greek public poetry they are written for and about contemporary men, rather than gods or the great heroes of the past. As such they tell us something about the values of aristocratic society, that is, why the games were thought so important that, as Pindar puts it, ‘t
