Pimeydestä päivänvaloon : 2000-luvun alun vampyyri - kasvissyöjä, rakastaja ja tappaja
2011
Tutkin sivututkielmassani millainen 2000-luvun alun vampyyri on ja millainen sen suhde on aiempaan vampyyrikirjallisuuteen ja vampyyriperinteeseen. Tutkielman motivaatio ja tärkeys nousevat omasta kiinnostuksesta vampyyrikirjallisuuteen sekä vampyyrin ja yliluonnollisuuden kulttuurisesta ajankohtaisuudesta. Tutkielma perustuu Charlaine Harrisin Dead until dark, Stephenie Meyerin Twilight ja J. R. Wardin Dark lover romaanien tarkkaan lukemiseen ja esiin nousevien piirteiden yhdistämiseen ja vertailuun. Vertailen nykyvampyyria vampyyrikirjallisuuden lähtökohtiin eli goottilaiseen romaaniin, gotiikkaan ja kauhukirjallisuuteen sekä vampyyrikirjallisuuden omaan historiaan intertekstuaalisuuden j…

USA on the road: da The Americans di Robert Frank ad American Surfaces di Stephen Shore
2018
Robert Frank’s and Stephen Shore’s photographic reportages and their travels document an identity of the United States different from the conventional representations that usually show a successful country, able to enforce its social, economic, political, and aesthetics models. These reportages represent an other America, far from the stereotypes and full of contradictions: the places of common experience (almost non-places), the characters disillusioned and frustrated by the American dream, the banality of the situations represented, the commonplace, show that besides a winner’s imagery (like, recently, the one represented by Trump but also by Pete Souza, official photographer of Barack Ob…

Developing a metatheoretical framework for second language development : a cultural-historical theory and dynamic systems theory perspective
2017
The main aim of this article-based dissertation is to construct and articulate a dialectical metatheoretical architecture for the study of second language development termed Purposive-Historical Systems Theory (PHiST) invoking, inter alia, the axiomatic imperatives of dynamic systems theory (DST), Vygotskian cultural-historical theory (CHT), and Pepperian root metaphor theory (RMT). Specifically, it primarily purports, first, to demonstrate the tenability of a dialectical synthesis of DST and CHT; second, to philosophize on the fundamental contours of PHiST; third, to apply a novel metatheoretical perspective, as a quintessential example, to reconceptualizing the seminal construct of the Zo…
