Youth language in media contexts: insights into the functions of English in Finland
2007
ABSTRACT: Recent research has shown that the role of English in Finland is now changing. In particular contexts, it is sometimes used as a lingua franca, an intracultural means of communication, and an additional language, along with Finnish. An interesting domain in terms of the spread and changing role of English is also youth language – the focus of the present paper. Approaching youth language from a discourse-analytic and sociolinguistic perspective, this paper investigates an electronic game session, hip-hop lyrics, fan fiction and weblogs. As in youth language in other bi/multilingual speech communities, the paper argues that the uses of English in these Finnish youth language conte…
FASP médicale et substrat professionnel : le miroir éclaté
2010
Abstract The study of medical thrillers is a budding field of research within the genre of professionally-based fiction. These novels usually reflect the practices, the discourse, and the socio-cultural ways of the medical community. However, on reading the more recent novels, one has the feeling that the representation of professional reality is gradually giving way to the lure of the closely related thriller genre. In the same way, the image reflected is that of a more diversified professional reality, as the authors now draw their inspiration from professionally-based material borrowed from forensic and legal thrillers. This osmosis-induced evolution highlights the hybrid nature of the g…

“Die Künstlerische Betrachtungsweise…”: Wittgenstein on miracles = “Die Künstlerische Betrachtungsweise...”, Wittgenstein sobre los milagros
2019
Abstract: Miracles are certainly a matter for the philosophy of religion. A defence is here raised, however, of the idea that Wittgenstein’s conception of miracles is closely connected with the artistic way of seeing in general, and with the consideration of literary fiction in particular. The connection can be established through a family of closely related concepts: “seeing as”, “the dawning of an aspect”, “image” and “perspective”. They are all involved in Wittgenstein’s aesthetic conceptions, in his analyses of art and also in his conception of miracles.Key words: Wittgenstein, miracles, art, religion.Resumen: Los milagros son ciertamente una cuestión de filosofía de la religión. En cua…
Fragmentation(s) and Realism(s): Has the Fragment Gone Mainstream?
2019
This article tackles what seems to be a revival of fragmentary fiction in English in the 21st century. It briefly traces the lineage of critical interest in the fragment from German Romanticism through Bertolt Brecht and Modernism to postmodern film studies, in an attempt to highlight not only the temporal, but also the spatial and visual dimension of discontinuity evinced by recent fragmentary fiction. Six novels published between 2005 and 2017 are discussed sequentially, in a manner redolent of cinematic movement: Tom McCarthy’s Remainder 2005, Anne Enright’s The Gathering 2007, Yaa Gyasi’s Homegoing 2016, Mohsin Hamid’s Exit West 2017, Ali Smith’s Autumn 2016, and George Saunders’s Linco…
