Law, Media And Political Dissent: The Case Of The Faln, Yanira Reyes
Law, Media And Political Dissent: The Case Of The Faln, Yanira Reyes
Open Access Dissertations
Inspired on the works of scholars and activists that had denounced state repression of political activists in the United States, this research explores the theoretical proposal about the criminalization of political dissidence. The proposal of the criminalization of political dissidence is analyzed through the study of the case of Puerto Rican pro-independence organization Fuerzas Armadas de Liberaci6n Nacional, F.A.L.N. The subjects of this research were charged with seditious conspiracy and other charges. They claimed the status of prisoners of war and deny the jurisdiction of US courts over them. Affirming their right to fight for the independence of Puerto Rico, …
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Bulgaria, Kornelia Slavova
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Bulgaria, Kornelia Slavova
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
Kornelia Slavova, in her paper "Reading Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' in Post-communist Bulgaria," discusses the intricate interrelations of texts and social practices in postcommunist Bulgaria by analysing Rosa Liksom's short story read by sixty readers. Further, Slavova proposes the study of the uses of stereotypes in fiction and their discursive hardening in extratextual practices at times of radical political and cultural change. With this notion, she focuses on two major stereotypical patterns concerning gender and the supranational opposition East/West. Slavova argues that the latter function as palimpsest structures on which earlier bipolar representations from the communist Cold-War era …
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Estonia, Malle Järve
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In Post-Communist Estonia, Malle Järve
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her paper, "Reading Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' in Post-communist Estonia," Malle Järve discusses the reception of Rosa Liksom's text in post-communist Estonia. After gaining independence, Estonians became exposed to varieties of literature including avant-garde texts which did not fit easily with the expectations and rules of interpretation developed during Soviet rule. Based on data collected in 1993 and 1998, Järve focuses on the cultural repertoire (discourses, stereotypes, values, literary expectations, etc.) used by readers while constructing meaning to the text, perceived predominantly as foreign/Other. Järve's objective is an attempt to explain: 1) who/what the Other in the …

Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" And (Finnish) Identity Construction, Kimmo Jokinen
Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" And (Finnish) Identity Construction, Kimmo Jokinen
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his paper, "Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' and (Finnish) Identity Construction," Kimmo Jokinen proposes the validity of common belief today that a shift into a late-modern era is taking place. It has often been claimed in contemporary sociological debates that our "post-industrial" life has become more thoroughly imbricated with culture and signs and sociologists, in their analyses of contemporary life, are interested especially in stories people tell, hear, and read. Based on readers' survey data in Finland, Jokinen analyses the ways in which Rosa Liksom's short story "We Got Married" is being employed in identity construction. For Jokinen, …
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In A Cultural And Political Perspective, Erkki Vainikkala
Reading Liksom's Short Story "We Got Married" In A Cultural And Political Perspective, Erkki Vainikkala
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his paper, "Reading Liksom's Short Story 'We Got Married' in a Cultural and Political Perspective," Erkki Vainikkala examines Rosa Liksom's short story as well as one reader's response to the text. In Vainikkala's analysis, the short story is described as a structure of inversions and reversals where sequences are opened and cut short, standpoints are offered and taken back immediately, and where the code of realism is suggested but not carried out as the development of the story lacks convincing motivation. The resulting effect of exhaustion, evident also in the manifestation of pathological narcissism in the story, is seen …

Cultural Studies And Cultural Text Analysis, Urpo Kovala
Cultural Studies And Cultural Text Analysis, Urpo Kovala
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article, "Cultural Studies and Cultural Text Analysis," Urpo Kovala discusses the role of textual analysis in cultural studies. He begins with a sketch of different conceptions of textual analysis within cultural studies by pointing to differences in the concepts of text and context themselves. Next, Kovala explores the reasons for including textual analysis as a category and method in cultural studies and in humanities and social sciences scholarship generally. Finally, Kovala sketches briefly a model for the cultural analysis of text where his main point is that the argument about the incompatibility of cultural studies and textual analysis …
