Matei Visniec: aproximación a un universo dramático a través de sus animales
2014
Matei Visniec (1956) is an author from Romania, who uses both French and Romanian expression in his plays. The coordinates of his dramatic fictional universe bring together the absurd, the symbolic, the fantastic and the conflicts in the city of men, sometimes with accurate historical and current references. Animals, present onstage in many different ways, are very common in his plays. They constitute a strange wildlife between animal and human, between the real and the fantastic.Their presence in this theatrical universe fits into their symbolic aspect, which defies the imagination by means of what is enigmatic and incomprehensible; but it also falls into their committed side to the extent…

Pasila satiirin, koomisen ja absurdin rajoilla
2016
Pasila (Filmiteollisuus Fine Mediastation Oy tuotantokaudet 1.–2. vuosina 2007–2009 ja Yellow Film & TV tuotantokaudet 3.–6. vuosina 2011–2013) päättyi kuuden tuotantokauden jälkeen vuonna 2013 suosionsa huipulle. Sarjan nauttimasta innostuksesta kertoo jo se, että ohjaaja-käsikirjoittaja Atte Järvisen lopetuspäätöksestä huolimatta, YLE jatkoi sarjaa uuden tekijätiimin voimalla Pasila 2.5 - The Spin-off -version muodossa. Vaikka varsinaisen animaation viimeisestä kaudesta on ehtinyt kulua jo useampi vuosi, on Pasilaa tarkasteltu tutkimuksissa lähinnä animaatioteknisistä lähtökohdista. Sarjalla on kuitenkin annettavaa myös kirjallisuudentutkimukselle. Tässä kirjallisuuden maisterintutkielmas…
Absurdity in Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises
2019
Abstract The purpose of this essay is to capture and convey, through the use of different works of philosophy that encapsulate thoughts on the same idea, the motif of the absurdity of life in Ernest Hemingway’s first novel The Sun Also Rises. The concept of the absurd will be, first and foremost, examined through absurdist criticism of the novel, using the philosophical thought of Albert Camus, Soren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche and other philosophers who captured the essence of the absurd in their philosophy, all in order to represent this concept in Hemingway’s novel and to show how it truly manifests itself upon some of the most important characters’ psychology and their actions, por…
Sophisticated humor against COVID-19 : the Polish case
2021
Abstract The analysis undertaken in the article focuses on a group of memes selected from the database which drew on culture-specific references. Specifically, they embrace the memories of socialist times and call on references to comic films and easily recognized characters in order to bring out the re-discovered absurdity of the current COVID-19 situation. This material seems ideal to revisit Raskin’s early notion of sophistication, which was broadly argued to derive from intertextuality as well complexity of references that function as sources of humor. In all the examples discussed we can observe the intertextual and metatextual elements, multiple levels and shifts in points of view and…

Latvian Writers’ Strategies of Resistance during De-Stalinisation: The Case of Gunārs Priede
2017
This paper traces developments in the Soviet Latvian literary scene between the late 1950s and early 1970s. The first part examines aspects of social organisation as demonstrated by the daily routines of so-called creative unions characteristic for the overall pattern of the way in which social mechanisms worked under Soviet rule, even if there were constant attempts to overcome the limits set to expression by the communist system. The second part provides a case study of the biography and creative work of Latvian playwright Gunārs Priede 1928–2000, a leading representative of the young generation of authors of that period. The paper not only points towards the parallels in social and aesth…
Boghossian's Reductio of Compatibilism
1998
Según Boghossian, la compatibilidad entre el externismo respecto del contenido y el autoconocimiento implica el absurdo según el cual es posible conocer a priori verdades substantivas sobre el mundo, como que existe agua. El argumento de Boghossian descansa crucialmente en dos supuestos: en primer lugar, que el carácter composicional o atómico son propiedades internas de los conceptos; en segundo lugar, que el externalismo no puede dar cuenta de conceptos atómicos con extensión vacía. Ambos supuestos se ponen en cuestión en este artículo. Por una parte, el externismo puede concebir plausiblemente el carácter composicional o atómico de los conceptos como dependiente de la naturaleza real de …
