Minä sairaanhoitajana: tulevaisuuden minuudet motivaatiota muokkaamassa
2013
Ulkomaalaisen terveydenhoitoalan henkiloston ammatillinen kielitaito on herattanyt julkista keskustelua Suomessa, mutta alalle kouluttautuvat maahanmuuttajataustaiset opiskelijat kielitaitoineen ovat olleet vasta vain tieteellisen keskustelun kohteena. Tassa artikkelissa tarkastelen, mita odotuksia Suomessa englanninkielisessa koulutusohjelmassa sairaanhoitajiksi opiskelevilla maahanmuuttajilla on kielitaidostaan ja tulevaisuudestaan ja kuinka odotukset nakyvat motivoituneisuutena tyoharjoitteluissa. Motivaatiota lahestytaan kompleksisena, identiteettiin nivoutuvana ilmiona, jonka ytimessa on toimijuus. Tutkimus sijoittuu sosiokognitiiviseen viitekehykseen, jossa kieli ja motivaatio nahdaan…
Splendeur et décadence: la représentation de la société et de la ville dans Une liaison parisienne de Marie-Claire Blais
2011
En Une liaison parisienne (1975), Marie-Claire Blais sitúa la acción en Paris, una ciudad idealizada por Mathieu Lelièvre, un joven quebequense que viaja a Francia. Su recorrido por la capital francesa permite caracterizar dicha ciudad y los personajes que viven en ella. A través de la evocación del espacio, esta novela cuestiona los estereotipos tradicionales, la identidad nacional francesa y pone en evidencia la hipocresía y las injusticias que caracterizan la sociedad parisina. En este estudio observaremos cómo el espacio urbano se convierte en el reflejo de la decadencia de toda una élite social. La novela subraya, sin embargo, la existencia de una Francia diferente, humilde y amable, q…
Foreign Language Students’ Perceptions of Their Identity
2019
Foreign language learning innvolves cognitive, affective and social functioning of the persons involved in this experience. As a social practice, it is also related to the learners’ perceptions of their identity, specifically to their language identity which refers to the relationship between one’s sense of self and the language used to communicate. This implies that using a system of communication, the speaker develops a new sense of self that remains in a dynamic relation with other senses of self, based on (an)other language(s) the person knows.Language learners’ identity is no longer defined as fixed and stable but as “complex, contradictory and multifaceted” (Norton 1997, p. 419). It i…
La poesia infantil en el sistema literari valencià actual:un estudi de cas
2022
L’objectiu principal d’aquest article és definir les característiques i tendències principals d’un subsistema poètic concret: la poesia per a infants publicada en llengua catalana a la Comunitat Valenciana al nou mil·lenni. Més en concret, es tracta de comprovar si les tendències definides per la literatura acadèmica com a característiques i dominants dins de la poesia per a infants de l’àmbit estatal es troben també a l’àmbit valencià. Per a arribar al nostre objectiu hem seleccionat un corpus que es correspon a l’única col·lecció de poesia diferenciada per a infants existent a la Comunitat Valenciana: «Vagó de versos», de l’editorial Andana. Així doncs, una vegada establert i descrit el c…
Análisis contrastivo de la (des)cortesía en los comentarios digitales del periódico 20minutos.es y del Facebook de viajacontumascota.com: anonimato y…
2019
Esta investigación analiza las diferencias entre dos tipos de discursos digitales: las intervenciones reactivas a cinco posts por parte de los seguidores de una página de Facebook, ViajaconTuMascota.com, en la que existe cierta camaradería por la afición compartida; y los comentarios de lectores anónimos, entre los que no se establece esa solidaridad, a cinco noticias del periódico digital, 20minutos.es. Se pretende comprobar cómo inciden estas diferencias, la presencia o ausencia de solidaridad y el anonimato frente a la identidad real, cuando se producen desacuerdos: si se mantiene la cortesía social, a través de una cortesía mitigadora, o si se quiebra al activarse una estrategia de cibe…
Sukzessive und simultane Aufspaltung der Erzähl-instanz im Erzählwerk Margaret Atwoods
1994
Der vorliegende Artikel konzentriert sich auf wesentliche Aspekte der Erzahltechnik Margaret Atwoods, und zwar auf wiederholt von ihr besonders in ihrer fruhen und mittleren Schaffensphase eingesetzte Strukturformen der erzahlerischen Vermittlung, die ten-denziell von starker thematischer Aussagekraft sind. Es werden zum einen zwei auffallige Strukturformen, unter Besprechung der einschlagigen Atwood-Texte, vorgestellt: die sukzessive und die simultane Aufspaltung der Erzahlinstanz (meist in Ich- und Sie-Erzahlform) bei gleichbleibendem centre of consciousness, d.h. bei invarianter Fokalisierungsinstanz. Der Artikel erlautert uberdies, inwieweit Atwood diese Strukturierungsformen zur Dramat…
New Approaches in the Analysis of the Contemporary Dramatic Character
2013
Abstract The character is the core of dramaturgy. The current paper aims to present the newest research regarding the contemporary dramatic character. The study looks at the recent theoretical approaches that hold a double perspective on the character: as a writer's composition and as an actor's performance. The character is defined through his name, implication and role in the action, but also through his own discourse. Based on the connection between similarities and differences, each trait of a character facilitates the revelation of the whole image. The result is a microcosmic structure of a specific typology of characters, interconnected and interdependent. Certain specific, defining c…
Runology and historical sociolinguistics: On runic writing and its social history in the first millennium
2015
AbstractThis paper argues that the rise and the transmission of the runes is largely determined by sociolinguistic factors. First, the olderfuþarkis identified as a unique Germanic design, adapted from Latin or Greek sources by one or more well-born Germani to mark group identity and status. Hence it is rather unlikely that the search for an exact source alphabet of the olderfuþarkwill make a major breakthrough in future research. Second, the present author argues that the extension of thefuþarkin the Anglo-Frisian setting is due to high-scale contact with the Christian Church, including Latin manuscript culture and Classical grammatical schooling, whereas these factors were almost entirely…
Otherness and self in latvian theatre: Changes at the turn of the nineteenth century
2015
In the article, political and historical interpretations of the first play in Latvian, an adapted translation of Ludvig Holberg’s Jeppe of the Hill (1723, Latvian version 1790) are explored. Although the play has been often interpreted as a work of anti-alcohol propaganda, the article argues that the political motives of the play are no less important. Translated into Latvian during the time of the French revolution, the play mirrors the tense atmosphere of the revolutionary years and reflects changes in Latvian peasant identity. While translating, Baltic German pastor Alexander Johann Stender changed the play’s setting to the late eighteenth century Courland and added new details, emphasiz…
Introduction: Seamus Heaney’s Europe
2016
Seamus Heaney’s Europe is a space of contradictions. On the one hand, there is his belief in the principle of the national and ethnic identity understood in essentialist terms. On the other hand, there is a vision of the European tradition as multi-layered and devoid of clear outlines and a stable centre. The two moments inform Heaney’s work and are examined in the context of literary fascinations and interdependencies.
