Ford, Sean. "The Diffusion of Identity: A Study of Three Contemporary Thai Short Stories through the Lens of Western Narrative Conventions." MANUSYA: Journal of Humanities 24, no. 1 (June 14, 2021): 146–63. http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/26659077-02401006.

Abstract:
Abstract Literary works give expression to universal themes through settings, subjects, and techniques that are culturally tied. This article reviews generic conventions involving point of view, protagonist, conflict, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution that typify Western short stories in order to examine how varying patterns can illuminate cultural contrasts between Thailand and the West. Widely known stories by Katherine Mansfield and Amy Tan serve to exemplify the conventional Western pattern and its versatility and to provide a basis for discovering alternative patterns that characterize numerous contemporary Thai short stories. An analysis of stories by S.E.A. Write award winners Phaitoon Thanya, Anchan, and Ussiri Thammachot through the comparative lens of Western conventions reveals how divergent narrative techniques involving point of view and plot elucidate and corroborate divergent expressions regarding the nature of identity. Narrative patterns in these Thai short stories help produce diffusions of identity that reflect a collectivist ethos and an acceptance of uncertainty and impermanence, while adherence to the Western formula reinforces a core belief in the permanence and persistence of the individual ego over time.

Abstract:
This paper compares and contrasts two short stories, Guy De Maupassant’s Two Friends and Arturo Arias’ Toward Patzun. Both stories have the same thematic structure as the harshness and brutality during wartime situation is a similar concern to the aforementioned writers. Although both writers foreground the savagery of war, the different cultural background, nationality, literary tradition cause differences in the way both writer narrate their short stories. While De Maupassant depicts the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871), Arias squares his narration in the Guatemalan civil war (1960-1996). The differences of canonical status between De Maupassant and Arias is also scrutinized in this paper. While De Maupassant is a household name in Western literary tradition, the popularity of Arias remains obscure. This paper argues that the differences in canonization is linked also with the status of Two Friends in the hypercanon, on the other hand Toward Patzun is located in the countercanon. It is hoped that this paper can contribute toward questioning the privileged status of Western literary works compared to the non-Western author.

Abstract:
Rasipuram Krishnaswami Iyer Narayanaswami, a well-known South Indian writer, creator of a fictional town ‘Malgudi” developed a sense of interest among middle- class people in India to read short stories in English. He is the spell caster of encompassing Indianism into English literature through his writings. This celebrated Indian novelist brought an aroma of Southern Indian Coffee into English and indianized it through his fictional stories which connect with real time situations of a common Indian. This distinguished writer captivated readers through his meticulous mastery over foreign language on Indian soil. His short stories are the best paradigm to understand Indian English that is entangled with beliefs, traditions, culture to an extent superstitions existed in the routes of Indian lives. Contrast between the lives of Western and Indians’ lives in various aspects are illustrated through his short stories and novels. The present paper tries to highlight Indianized contexts into English literature by this outstanding writer. It also attempts to show how characters in the short stories of Narayan are related to Karmic philosophy.

Abstract:
In a context of manmade global warming, ecological destruction and species extinction, posthumanist scholars have advocated moving beyond the anthropocentrism that determines western thinking in favour of an embedded and embodied interspecies relationality. If these remain fairly abstract notions in the work of critics such as Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti, contemporary short fiction provides many interesting examples of these alternative forms of being and becoming. The short story seems especially suited to exploring this decentring of the human subject, given its own status as a liminal, ‘minor’ or ‘humble’ genre and its long tradition of exploring human–animal relations in animal stories. This article demonstrates how contemporary short stories by Lauren Groff, Claire-Louise Bennett, Sarah Hall, Sara Baume and Louise Ehrdrich stage a profoundly biocentric perspective by moving beyond animal stories’ traditional modes of the fabular and the figural towards a realistic depiction of our creaturely existence in experiences that may be at once empowering and terrifying.

The article deals with the early short stories of Mark Twain. It illustrates the key features of the humor of Mark Twain’s short stories, and the role of American lifestyle, especially in the Western region’s historical culture, folklore and traditions of newspapers humor in the formation of Mark Twain as a writer. There is an analysis about the mutual relations between humor and critique in the article too. To our conclusion humor was not the main goal in the literary activity of Mark Twain, the main principle and goal of the writer’s works were to discover the materials coming from hypocrisy, dissimulation, ugliness and realities of those times, and their comic potential. That is why to use widely the ways and methods of the comic elements helped the writer to show and describe the personages, characters, things and objects in a conflicting manner with their full details and bareness in various colors.

Abstract:
This is a collection of creative essays containing one person’s world view and experiences – factual and fiction. The intended purpose is not to make the reader think, act, or change any of his beliefs, it is simply meant to entertain him in a world that often offers few risk-free entertainments. It is hoped that the reader will be just as ignorant when he turns the last page as he was when he turned the first. Even Adam with his wonderful garden, or Aladin and his magic lamp, didn’t offer as much. I am offering reading without the danger of learning, possibly a first for literature; it is the scientific equivalent of light without heat.

Abstract:
This collection of short stories is about being a twenty-something in the 90s, trying to get by, have a little fun and make somewhat of a mark in the process. It’s about the process of growing up, and the seemingly desperate need to hold onto all those youthful pursuits. It’s about finding out that life as an adult tries to suck the life out of you, rather than allowing you to suck the life out of it. That constant struggle, the battle of wills between attending to your needs or just satisfying your wants. This is a time for you when your needs and wants are siblings, bickering in the back of the car on a long drive up the coast. The characters in these stories are having their good time while it lasts. Avoiding the inevitable: maturity, responsibility, adulthood. And so they should. After all, these aren’t called ‘the best years of our lives’ for nothing. The stories celebrate your life as a twenty-something.

Chung Chao-cheng, one of the first generation cross-language writer after the Second War, is called "Mother of Taiwan literature". Peng Jui-chin hailed him as " Lamp transmission of Taiwan literature ." Few of novelists in Taiwan can match his abundant works, and his "Roman-Fleuve" is a prime example. It becomes the focus of critics. Looking back at his novelettes, they opened his writing career but caught little attention. That is because their themes are not filled with a strong national identity and the contradiction from Taiwan ideology, like his Roman-Fleuve. However, the literary diversity, both experimental and contemporary, is revealed in his novelettes. In 2012, Hakka Affairs Council sponsored the translation and publication of Chung Chao-cheng’s Anthology of Short Stories for promoting Hakka Affairs. Joe Hung, the former Chairman of Central News Agency, translated six works and other three were translated by Fu Jen Catholic University students. With Lefevere’s theory on literary sponsors, both translators and sponsoring Authorities decide what readers read. That is the same as Chung Chao-cheng’s other translation works. There are no comments either on the translator or on his translations. By analysis of the comments on Yu Kao Fan and his translation The Journey to the West and Fu Lei’s retranslation Le Père Goriot , we can understand the relation between translators and translations by using Li Ji-hong’s words : “The factor which decides the literary translation good or not, especially in the classical literature, is how deep the translators involve in the original work.” Whether Joe Hung’s translation is successful or not, I judge its effect on formal and spiritual similarity. This paper focuses on translation accuracy in words and the cultural meaning coincidence between the translation and the original works. That means what effect the translation makes --- formal similarity or spiritual similarity. I hope I will do some contribution to those interested in modern Taiwan literature translation. I hope the sponsoring authority would go forward by collecting readers’ comments to have “the world see the Hakka” come true.

AbstractIn this chapter, we intend to bring the urgency of our times, pointed out by discussions about the Anthropocene, to research in history, philosophy, and sociology of science in science teaching. After considering the own historicity of the Anthropocene concept, we seek, through a short historical case on botany, to build new lenses to look at Western modern science, locating other stories and other perspectives that can be told about its emergence and establishment. With this new focus, we discuss how this knowledge was shaped by the triad of colonialism, capitalism, and patriarchy, and that for this reason, we must perceive modern science through a critical lens in dialog with other forms of knowledge. This dialogue can help to build solutions for the present moment and to dissolve some of the impasses regarding the conversations around the Anthropocene. Thus, we argue that enhancing the political-historical dimension of Western modern science in science education is a fundamental task in building futures that produce different and potentially less (self)destructive multispecies relationships.

Abstract:
A leading member of the Shanghai-based New Sensationist Movement (xin ganjuepai), Mu Shiying is best known for a set of short stories he wrote in the early 1930s. Typically set in the modern and Westernized setting of Shanghai’s foreign concessions, Mu’s stories usually feature a disjointed, syncopated writing style, an abundance of aural and other sensory descriptions, together with a fascination with modern Western culture and all of its trappings. Many of his stories employ experimental narrative techniques such as interior monologue and stream of consciousness, and frequently explore the symbolics of female eroticism and commodity culture.

Sinclair Ross was a founding figure of Canadian literature. His novel, As For Me and My House, and short stories, including ‘The Lamp at Noon’ and ‘The Painted Door’, have been widely recognised as defining accounts of life in early- to mid-twentieth century Western Canada. Ross’s work both evokes a modernist context through its focus on the ambiguities of first-person narration, and initiates a nationalist discourse through its depiction of small-town Canadian landscapes and communities. As For Me and My House has been described by Margaret Atwood as ‘archetypally’ Canadian, while fellow Western writer Margaret Laurence credits Ross with showing her that ‘novels could be written here’.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that catastrophic climate change fictions have been organised around three main tropes: the new ice age, the burning world and the drowned world. Of these, only the last has a deep history in the Western mythos, dating back to stories of a Great Flood in Genesis and the Epic of Gilgamesh. When modern science fiction (SF) began to take shape in the early nineteenth century, it inherited a preoccupation with the Flood from its parent cultures, for example, Mary Shelley’s The Last Man, Richard Jefferies’s After London and Jules Verne’s Sans dessus dessous. This flood motif continued to be important in American pulp SF. Cooling and warming are more recent preoccupations, dating from the widespread acceptance of ice age theory and greenhouse theory in the late nineteenth century. For most of the twentieth century both science and SF were more interested in cooling. But in the closing quarter of the twentieth century and the first decades of the twenty-first, widespread scientific concern that anthropogenic warming might more than offset longer-term cooling led to the development of contemporary ‘cli-fi’, concerned primarily with the effects of global heating.

Digital storytelling, especially in the form of short personally-narrated stories first pioneered by the Center for Digital Storytelling in Berkeley in 1993, is a practice that has now expanded throughout English speaking countries and Western Europe, and has a smaller but growing presence in the developing world. This review examines the origins of the practice and early dissemination, and its current uses in community-based storytelling, education, and by cultural institutions. Research regarding the impacts and benefits of digital storytelling and relationships between storytelling, cognition and identity, and mediating technologies are examined. Current issues in the field, including issues of voice, ownership, power relationships, and dissemination are considered, along with possible future directions for research and implications for social practice and policy.

Full text
Abstract:
The avant-garde short stories of the Yiddish writer Der Nister were a form of primitivist literary abstraction, fracturing the narrator-ego into a kaleidoscopic and disorienting landscape, thereby destabilizing the privileged subject at the center of the Western literary tradition. The primitivist aesthetic theory of Carl Einstein clarifies Der Nister’s own innovative solution to the problem of abstraction—as a visual and spatial phenomenon—in literature. Einstein noted that primitivist abstraction was in principle achievable in literature but in practice absent. Der Nister’s familiarity with Yiddish folklore gave him a resource for the creation of a literary abstraction motivated by both literature and the visual principles familiar from modernist painting. His primitivism resulted in a revolutionary aesthetics that fused Jewish sources with the universalist claims of his politics.

Abstract:
This chapter features a new take on vampires, werewolves and other contrived souls, especially in relation to tortured coming-of-age stories that address social pressure and childhood traumas. After a short encounter with Woolf in the company of a vampire, this chapter commences with a return to Stephanie Rothman’s psychedelic exploitation film The Velvet Vampire (1971) and Katherine Bigelow’s vampire western Near Dark (1987). The vampire as connected to the confusing experiences of coming of age is picked up Moth Diaries (Mary Harron 2011) and in a less explicit but no less horrific way in Sarah Plays a Werewolf (Katharina Wyss 2017). The promise of the myth of eternal life and beauty, and the legacy of Elisabeth Bathory is revised in The Countess (July Delpie 2009) and acquires a particular twist in contemporary Japan in Helter Skelter (Mika Ninagawa 2012). Claire Denis’s Trouble Every Day (2001) takes the genre to its ontological extremes. This chapter will also turn to Butler’s re-imagination of the vampire in her novel Fledgling (2005) and the imagination of alternative relations between the human and nonhuman and looks at the new ethics of the vampire in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (Ana Lily Amirpour, 2014).

Full text
Abstract:
At the base of all Holocaust testimony projects lies a common commitment: to record and preserve the stories of those who survived the catastrophe as told in their own voices. When it comes to survivors’ testimonies, the messenger is as important as the message. The first to subscribe to this reasoning was the American psychologist David Boder, who in 1946 set out to interview survivors in refugee camps across Western Europe. Equipped with what was then the state- of- the- art technology—an Armour Model 50 wire recorder—Boder went on to produce what was the first audio testimony of the Holocaust. The wire recorder, developed in the 1940s by Marvin Camras, Boder’s colleague at the Illinois Institute of Technology, for the U.S. military, was a portable and remarkably durable device that utilized thin steel wires rolled into spools to produce an electromagnetic recording (see Fig. 4.1 below). As Boder later commented, the device “offered a unique and exact means of recording the experiences of displaced persons. Through the wire recorder the displaced person could relate in his own language and in his own voice the story of his concentration camp life.” Studying wire- recorded narratives led him to devise a “traumatic index” by means of which “each narrative may be assessed as to the category and number of experiences bound to have a traumatizing effect upon the victim.” Boder’s 1949 monograph, I Did Not Interview the Dead, invites readers to find indications of trauma implicit in selected transcripts of recorded narratives. The premise seems to be that, to the extent that such traumatic impact exists, it should be discoverable textually. Yet the same technology that made Boder’s project ingenious was also the reason for its relative obscurity. Wire recording was soon to give way to tape recording, consequently condemning Boder’s wire spools to obsolescence and the testimonies they held to near oblivion. The short- lived medium precluded access to the recorded material.

Metamorphosis is one of Kafka's representative short stories. It mainly reveals the alienation of modern western society through the absurd story of the protagonist Gregor Samsa turning into a beetle. From the perspectives of self-alienation, the alienation of living environment, the alienation of interpersonal relationship and the alienation of the relationship between man and nature, this paper discusses the squeeze and distortion of human beings in the western capitalist society, and reproduces the true picture of the abnormal society.
