Our interest should always be aroused when scholars reject the testable approaches that have underwritten scientific development since the seventeenth century. Academic excursions in the arts and humanities need not adhere to scientific benchmarks, of course, and discussions relevant to science that are presented there need not always be subject to...

This article presents an archetypal reading of Bharati Mukherjee’s Jasmine that foregrounds the narrator’s agency in her sequential transformations in the narrative. The critic starts from a broader conception of the term agency that encapsulates those instinctive types of actions in which the protagonist, and people in everyday life, find themselv...

A hybrid version of macro-appraisal is used by South African public archivists when separating records of enduring value from ephemeral records. This appraisal function should occur immediately after the filing systems have been approved by the national and provincial archivists. However, in most cases, this function only occurs two years after the...

Pričujoče besedilo se ukvarja s Schleglovo politično filozofijo, izpeljano iz njegove teorije ironije. Ironija je bistveni del romantičnega odnosa do sveta, kot se kaže v t. i. »progresivni poeziji« ter odprtosti in fragmentarnosti romantične biti in jezika. Toda ključen kritik koncepta ironije, Hegel, njeno igro nedokončanosti označi za samovoljne...

Instalacijska umetnost se je pojavila v 60. letih 20. stoletja. Kot novomedijsko umetnost so jo uveljavljeni modernistični kritiki in teoretiki negativno sprejeli – Michael Fried jo označi kot preveč performativno prakso. Toda prav zaradi performativne vloge, ki jo ima pri obiskovalcu, je kaj kmalu postala priljubljena oblika likovne umetnosti, ki ...

Pričujoče magistrsko delo je posvečeno ruski dramatičarki Nini Nikolajevni Sadur in njenemu dramskemu besedilu Pannočka (rus. Панночка). Sadurjeva velja za izredno kompleksno avtorico, kar med drugim dokazujejo raziskovalci, ki si glede žanrske umestitve Nine Sadur niso enotni. Dramatičarko sicer najpogosteje prištevajo med postmoderniste in tudi n...
