“I beg you to tell me what has become of Djamila”: The Political Mobilization of Simone de Beauvoir’s Readers During the Boupacha Affair
No full textBy Sophia Millman This is a condensed version of a Masters thesis dedicated to the political mobilization of Simone de Beauvoir’s readers. The citations from the letters were translated from French by the author. *** On June 2, 1960, the French government ordered all copies of the daily Algiers edition of Le Monde seized and destroyed to suppress the publication of Simone de Beauvoir’s article “Pour Djamila Boupacha.” Beauvoir, a self-professed “woman of letters”, not “of action[1]”, and one ..

No full textA comparative study of form and theology in the works of Flannery O'Connor and Simone Weil
No full textIn this comparative study of the form and theology of Flannery O'Connor and Simone Weil I interrogate how Weil's philosophical writings and her theology illuminate O'Connor's use of both narrative and non-fictional forms, and her Catholicism. The Introduction analyses how Weil's concept of superposed reading provides a new method of approaching both O'Connor, her writings, and O'Connor
studies, and focuses on how such apparently different women interconnect. Chapter One explores how both Weil and O'Connor attempt to write their theologies on the
souls of their readers yet are each subject to constraints imposed by form. Weil's concept of locating equilibrium between incommensurates is discussed, and her
distinctively philosophical approach to fictions and fictionality is used to investigate O'Connor's notion of prophetic fictions and the writer's role. Chapter Two assesses how both writers revivify Christian paradoxes. Weil's monstrous concept of affiiction, and O'Connor's use of the grotesque genre to jolt secular man into an
awareness of the sacred are scrutinised. Chapter Three studies how both writers consider an encounter between God and man is possible through the action of grace. My Conclusion interrogates how Weil's work can deepen our understanding of O'Connor's writings, and examines how successful O'Connor is at realising a truly
Christian literature. I conclude that despite being a writer of powerful fictions, O'Connor can not be totally successful in her mission as writer-prophet because
ultimately fiction escapes orthodoxy
Simone de Beauvoir en España: sus obras traducidas y su recepción en la prensa
No full textIn the times of the restrictive socio political and cultural Franco context, our author’s presence went progressively growing as the prohibitions were loosed, becoming a plain and visible presence during the Transition times if we take into account her reception in the Spanish edition world and in the Press. Considering, on one hand, first the high number of her works (re) editions as well as, afterward, the new Second Sex translation into Spanish (1999, 2005) and, on the other hand, the good and very good valuation (obviously unequal according to the ideology) of the Press, our author is now a classic in our country. It is true that in some Humanities fields her consecration is irrefutable since she is of compulsory mention, nevertheless in the Literary Studies she hasn’t benefited of the same chance. Still enduring the accusations of misoginy and those of defending masculine values –some long time accusations since they go back to the publication of the Second Sex in France, and after taken on the behalf of the postmodern French feminism–, new times in the reception of Simone de Beauvoir can be predicted since Julia Kristeva claims for the (Re) discovering of Simone de Beauvoir...En los tiempos del contexto socio político y cultural tan restrictivo, la presencia de Simone de Beauvoir fue gradualmente incrementándose a medida que el régimen totalitario relajó las prohibiciones, para llegar a ser total a partir de la Transición a tenor de su acogida en el mundo editorial y periodístico. Pues, por un lado, primero por el ingente número de ediciones y reediciones de sus obras, así como, posteriormente, por la nueva traducción al castellano del Segundo Sexo en Cátedra (1999, 2005) y, por otro lado, por su valoración –eso sí, desigual en función de la ideología– de la prensa, nuestra autora es ya un clásico en nuestro Estado. Si bien es cierto que en determinados ámbitos del saber su consagración es irrefutable, en los Estudios Literarios, sin embargo, no ha tenido la misma suerte por pesarle todavía una desconsideración motivada por las acusaciones de misoginia y de ensalzamiento de los valores masculinos, desconsideraciones surgidas ya con la publicación del Segundo Sexo y retomadas posteriormente por cuenta del feminismo postmoderno francés. Ahora bien se auguran nuevos aires en la recepción de nuestra autora en este ámbito de estudio ya que la misma Julia Kristeva apunta a un (Re)descubrimiento de Simone de Beauvoir..

Football conspiracies. The Prisma investigation and fans’ online discourse
No full textThe history of football is particularly rich in narratives and interpretative mechanisms associated with conspiracy theories. In the case of unfavorable events against one’s own team, it is not uncommon, especially in the case of highly identified fans, to appeal to explanations centered on external forces that have been plotting against them. This chapter explores the main characteristics of conspiracy theories within online sports fans communities, analyzing fans’ conspiracy representations and narratives. To answer the research questions, we have analyzed some online communities of Juventus FC fans. The case of Juventus appears to be of particular interest as the club has recently been at the center of a judicial affair, the so-called “Prisma investigation”, which has had great resonance and generated a great media debate. We decided to adopt qualitative content analysis as a research technique to analyze fans’ comments and content produced and distributed within online supporters’ communities. We will see how in the analyzed case fans can perceive the judicial events as the outcome of a sort of plot by different types of actors: sports, judicial, political and media actors
Was bringt die Föderalismusreform? Wahrscheinliche Effekte der geänderten Zustimmungspflicht
No full textThe recently enacted reform of German federalism is supposed to make legislation faster, more efficient and better. To what extent are these expectations justified? In order to assess the likely effects of the reform, this study uses a research design that was recently applied by the Research and Reference Services of the German Bundestag (parliament): we estimate the future effects of the reform by analyzing the impact it would have had on the legislation in the 14th and 15th term of the Bundestag if it had already been been in force at that time. In particular we ask: To what extent would the number of laws requiring the consent of the states' chamber, the Bundesrat, have been reduced? Which type of laws would have been affected by this reduction - the more controversial ones, or the less controversial ones? Which policy sectors would have seen the greatest reduction? How much would the reduction have increased the government's capacity to act effectively? Would the legislative process have been accelerated? -- Die verabschiedete Föderalismusreform soll die Gesetzgebung in Deutschland schneller, effizienter und besser machen. Inwiefern sind diese Erwartungen berechtigt? Zur Abschätzung der Reformfolgen auf die Bundesgesetzgebung folgen wir in dem vorliegenden Working Paper einer Vorgehensweise, die der Wissenschaftliche Dienst des Bundestages kürzlich in einer Studie angewandt hat: Die Auswirkungen der Föderalismusreform insbesondere auf die Zustimmungspflicht werden anhand der Gesetzgebung der 14. und 15. Legislaturperiode untersucht. Wir fragen insbesondere: Wie stark hätte sich der Anteil der Zustimmungsgesetze verringert, wenn die neuen Zustimmungsregeln schon in diesen beiden Legislaturperioden gegolten hätten? Wären eher zwischen Regierung strittige oder unstrittige Gesetze von der Zustimmungspflicht befreit worden? Welche Politikbereiche wären betroffen? Wie sehr hätte sich die politische Handlungsfreiheit der Bundesregierung erhöht? Wäre die Gesetzgebung durch die veränderten Zustimmungsregeln beschleunigt worden?
