Foucault explained different heterotopias in 1967, and places such as Terre- Noire perfectly exemplify his postulatse. Terre-Noire continues to be the scene of family dramas and is the setting for a troubled and traumatized clan. It is the first of literary places marked by Germain and it bears witness to family history, and above all to French history, during the two Great Wars. The place changes, undergoes metamorphoses and sometimes even suffers partial destruction, recreating on a small scale the destruction and violence present in European cities during wartime. Conflicts reach Terre-Noire with their share of suffering and mourning, and the Péniel family space embodies the place of war by presenting all the features of a deadly space. The heterotopia represented by Terre-Noire questions the notion of time, inseparable from considerations by 20th century geocritics. Also, heterotopia establishes a peculiar heterochrony which must be understood through questioning the force of the memory of the place, both in its fictitious aspect induced by the literary form, and in the historical turn of the story.","PeriodicalId":233649,"journal":{"name":"Cross-cultural studies review","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131948375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It may seem difficult to find something in common between them. However, in terms of folk culture, especially wedding rituals, I would say that the two nations have many things in common. This study attempts to compare the traditional wedding rituals of the two nations which were performed among commoners between the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. Through this study, we can understand that the basic structure of the wedding rituals of both cultures have much in common. Even though the ritual forms and contents are different from each other, both cultures use many similar objects and symbolic expressions for the wedding ceremony. This study also deals with how women’s work, romance and new aspirations of social class transformed the marriage tradition, and how rituals were influenced by the intervention of the governments’ authority in personal life.","PeriodicalId":233649,"journal":{"name":"Cross-cultural studies review","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122673155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To\u0000this end, this study investigates natural speech sound systems with the consonantal\u0000systems of four Slavic languages, Russian, Polish, Czech and Serbian and Croatian, on the\u0000basis of phonetic and phonological approaches. In the phonetic approach, the consonant\u0000inventories of the four Slavic languages are analyzed with the theory of maximal and\u0000sufficient dispersion and the size principle, together with a frequency-based statistical\u0000approach. Segmental universals are discussed regarding sound types such as obstruents\u0000and sonorants. From the phonetic approach, it is shown that Slavic consonant systems\u0000are very unusual in terms of natural languages. Palatalized sounds in Russian and\u0000affricates and fricatives in Russian and Polish support that the Slavic consonantal\u0000system is far removed from the general aspect of human languages. On the other hand,\u0000with the phonological approach, four of the five feature-based principles proposed by\u0000Clements are employed to reveal the universals of the languages. They are Feature Economy, Marked Feature Avoidance, Robustness and Phonological enhancement. What we\u0000have seen is that some unsolved problems from the phonetic approach are explained\u0000by phonological accounts. The fact that Russian has plenty of segments represented\u0000by [+palatal] may not be unusual with respect to a feature-based approach. In addition,\u0000while the phonetic approach claims that Slavic languages (in particular, Russian and\u0000Polish) have different consonantal systems from the general aspect of natural languages\u0000because of the marked segments, the phonological approach accounts for the universals\u0000of these languages in the light of Robustness and Feature Economy. In short, what we get\u0000from phonetic accounts are language universals, found by frequency-based statistical\u0000approach while what we get from phonological accounts, using a feature-based approach,\u0000are linguistic universals.","PeriodicalId":233649,"journal":{"name":"Cross-cultural studies review","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121585831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Americanah and After the Flare both embrace contradiction and complexity. Furthermore, their treatment of societies (mis)shaped by historical violence includes acknowledgement of their own imbrication in global structures of capitalist modernity. Against the grim backdrop of rising inequality, resurgent racism and the effects of climate change – a moment in which dystopic visions tend to predominate – Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Deji Bryce Olukotun’s novels embody a kind of hope. Nonetheless, these alternatives to dystopia do not imagine that the problems and abuses of the present might easily be overcome. Thus, despite their employment of popular genres that invite rather than disavow pleasure, these fictions do not simply offer a form of escapism to distract us as the world burns. Rather, I would argue, they provide useful perspectives on Africa, on race and on humanity, that also have relevance in terms of current discourses of the Anthropocene. Before elaborating my argument in relation to Adichie and Olukotun’s works, I will examine some aspects of the contexts within and against which they operate – in terms of history, geography and representation concerning race, blackness, humanity, and Africa.","PeriodicalId":233649,"journal":{"name":"Cross-cultural studies review","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133614861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike the earlier introduction of “North Korean Studies” by the other communist countries, Yugoslavia opened departments of “Indology,” “Sinology,” and “Japanology,” recognizing them as representatives of Asian Studies rather than “North Korean Studies.” Asian Studies in Yugoslavia, which disbanded into six countries after the 1990s, was distinct in each of the republics. In the Republic of Serbia, for example, “Sinology” was representative of Asian Studies, while in the Republic of Croatia it was “Indology,” and in the Republic of Slovenia it was “Japanology.” The present study exam-ines the characteristics and backgrounds of “Sinology” at the University of Belgrade in Serbia, “Indology” at the University of Zagreb in Croatia, and “Japanology” and the new-ly-formed “Korean Studies” (in 2015) at the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia. Moreover, it describes the role of Korean government agencies and local universities and scholars in establishing Korean Studies in foreign universities. This study asserts that in order to establish Korean Studies in a foreign university, that university and its scholars must be actively involved, essentially leading the process, while Korean and local gov-ernment agencies should assume the role of facilitator. This paper has been developed on the basis of “The Current Status of Korean Studies in Slovenia” which was published in the 2016 issue of the Journal of Contemporary Korean Studies.1 However, because of its importance in relation to the establishment of a Korean Studies program in Split, it is being reprinted here with a new focus on “Asian Studies in Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia: Strategies for the Development of Korean Studies at the University of Split.”","PeriodicalId":233649,"journal":{"name":"Cross-cultural studies review","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133799695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
