Un Autre Monde Est Possible: Création Et Résistance Dans L’Oeuvre D’Ousmane Sembène, David Murphy
Un Autre Monde Est Possible: Création Et Résistance Dans L’Oeuvre D’Ousmane Sembène, David Murphy
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
During an artistic career that spanned half a century, Ousmane Sembène often played a pioneering role. However, although the many awards he received constitute recognition of the artistic quality of his work, his literary and cinematic output is best known for its denunciation of colonial and neo-colonial injustices. This article argues that Sembène’s importance is not solely political, and nor should it be limited to his role as a pioneer of African cinema. Sembène was also a great artist who developed a profound refl ection on his practice both as a writer and as a filmmaker. The article will trace …
A Bridge To The Eifel: Clara Viebig And Her Literary Style, Nathan Bates
A Bridge To The Eifel: Clara Viebig And Her Literary Style, Nathan Bates
Student Works
Clara Viebig was a woman author in Germany at the end of the nineteenth century, transitioning into the twentieth century. Viebig was born in Trier at the southern end of a region in western Germany known as the Eifel. Her works often utilized the landscape and countryside of this area, which has given them a unique dynamic. Although Viebig's technique has been examined in light of various literary styles, including naturalism (Krauss-Theim), neo-romanticism (Fleisscher), and Heimatkunst (Ecker), it has never been examined for its own unique merit. I believe that landscape plays a particularly profound role in shaping and influencing …
Italian Australian Studies: A (Post)Colonial Perspective, Gerry Turcotte, Gaetano Rando
Italian Australian Studies: A (Post)Colonial Perspective, Gerry Turcotte, Gaetano Rando
Gaetano Rando
This chapter introduces the volume and discusses related theoretical issues. This volume seeks to map an understanding of the Italian experience onto the broader picture of diasporic stories, though with an anchor in the Australian-Italian experience. It brings together key essays and testimonials that frame a picture of Italy’s rich legacy at “home”, in Europe more widely, and in the (post)colonial sphere, with a particular emphasis on the Australian experience. The essays collected here focus on the way an Italian Australian story has emerged and evolved in its own unique way. In some respects it might be possible to defi …
Cronotopi Del Paese Natio E Di Quello D’Adozione Nella Poesia E La Narrativa Calabroaustraliana, Gitano Rando
Cronotopi Del Paese Natio E Di Quello D’Adozione Nella Poesia E La Narrativa Calabroaustraliana, Gitano Rando
Gaetano Rando
Il saggio di Gaetano Rando prende lo spunto dal lavoro fondamentale di Pasquino Crupi che maestralmente indica la strada non solo per lo studio della cultura letteraria calabroitaliana ma anche la produzione letteraria e culturale dei Calabresi nel mondo, Australia compresa. In contrapposizione agli studi precedenti sulla letteratura italoaustraliana che hanno trattato il fenomeno nei suoi aspetti globali il saggio di Rando propone un esame capillare dei tratti distintivi e delle esperienze localizzate che segnano la produzione letteraria degli scrittori di origine calabrese. Collegando tale produzione al concetto bakhtiniano del cronotopo che si basa sull’idea che le dimensioni spaziali e …

Chapter 01: Anthropology Of Law As A Science - Prefatory Materials, Wolfgang Fikentscher
Wolfgang Fikentscher
Inclusive online updates jan10. Chapter 1 redefines the position of legal anthropology within the social sciences. A new definition of law for anthropological purposes is sought, and in this context authority as an indispensable conceptional element of law is discussed in a new light. The relationship of law and justice will appear in a new light. Legal pluralism willo show two separable dimensions. Among the social science aspects of anthropology, empirical thinking and guidance by models are being contrasted and related to Pre-socratic, Platonic and Kantian epistemology.
