No full textThis study entitled "Motivation of Social Mobility in the novel The Great Gatsby by. F. Scott Fitzgerald". The author is interested in researching the novel because there is social mobilit y reflected through the character, Jay Gatsby. The purpose of this study is to reveal forms of social mobility and motivation of character; To achieve the goals, the authors used a combined approach of structural and sociological approach to literature. The structural approach used to assess the intrinsic aspects of the novel, character and background, while the sociological approach to literature using the theory of social mobility to assess the social mobility of the character‟ motivation to improve and maintain his social class. In this novel, there is found kind of social mobility that done Jay Gatsby. It is vertical social mobility. Vertical social mobility is divided into two forms, upward and downward. Vertical social mobility, up from the characters increase the level of the economy and increase social class through work and marriage. There are some motivation behind social mobility such as increasing and maintaining social class. Social mobility that occurs in the novel The Great Gatsby become an author\u27s ideas reflect author‟s the social conditions. Through his ideas, the author intends to criticize how the importance of social class and social conditions of 1920s America while experiencing economic growth that brings influence to the people in hedonism and consumerism. So they do their social mobility in order to increase their economy level by the end justify the means.Keywords: novel, structural approach, sociology of literature, social mobilit

The Ethics of Blindness and the Postmodern Sublime: Levinas and Lyotard
No full textThe excerpt below is the final chapter of M. Jay’s “Downcast Eyes: The Denigration of Vision in Twentieth-Century French Thought” concerning the long-term confrontment “iconoclasm vs visual imaginary” within modern European culture. According to the author the current discussion on postmodernism proves to be somewhat a small branch of this complex intellectual swim. This branch, so to say, seems to sway periodically from overwhelming voyeurism to the uncompromising iconoclasm. This is the context Jay brings in considering conceptions of E. Levinas and J.-F. Lyotard, two famous French thinkers who expressed those cardinal philosophical points. However, the author focuses not only on the distinction, but also on certain coherence, as well as the evolution of their views

Perspectives on Max Frisch
No full textMax Frisch, with his countryman Friederich Diirrenmatt, shares the place of eminence in contemporary Swiss literature. Indeed, he ranks high among the recent leading writers in the German language. But, although several of his works— novels and plays—have been translated into English, he remains little known in America. In this collection of essays an international group of scholars provides a fresh introduction to this noted author.
The three leading essays review Frisch\u27s work in the forms he has used most extensively—drama, narrative fiction, and the personal diary. The remaining nine essays focus on specific works or topics. Among the works examined are I\u27m Not Stiller, A Wilderness of Mirrors, Wilhelm Tell, and the recent Man in the Holocene. Among the topics are Frisch\u27s use of language and images, his treatment of women, and the element of parody. Concluding the volume is the most complete bibliography on Frisch to appear in English to date.

Landscape with a Tragic Hero: F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Trimalchio
No full textDrawing attention to both characters and landscapes, this essay proposes a reading
of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Trimalchio that assesses its differences from and similarities
to The Great Gatsby. In the first part of the essay a comparison between the
two novels shows that the behavior and features of Jay Gatsby in Trimalchio are
borrowed from Petronius’s Trimalchio and Homer’s Odysseus. As a consequence,
the first Jay Gatsby turns out to be a more vulgar and astute version of his second
and more successful incarnation; he is, nevertheless, a coherent persona. We have
ultimately two Gatsbys and, therefore, two different novels. In spite of that, these
two texts share the same literary landscape, of which Fitzgerald was evidently
sure from the very beginning of his composition process. The second part of the
essay focuses on the ways in which Fitzgerald consciously grafted into Gatsby’s
American landscape the imperialistic vision exposed in Joseph Conrad’s Heart of
Darkness. In this respect, the opposition Fitzgerald—through his narrator Nick
Carraway—established between the East and Midwest of the USA also allows
for a surprising but compelling connection with David Foster Wallace, an author
strongly anchored in his Midwestern point of view
Robert Buchanan 1841-1901: an assessment of his career.
No full textPhDRobert Buchanan was widely regarded during his
lifetime as a poet of distinction, a capable and powerful
novelist, and a critic of some perception, yet his name is
now associated only with one regrettable episode, while
those of lesser men and women continue to be remembered for
work inferior to his. A man possessing large reserves of
energy, and pressed to write for a living at an early age,
he produced much work that deserves the oblivion it has
found; but his early verse, expressing his profound compassion
for the sufferings of the unfortunate in the simplest
language, some of his ballads, and not a little of his
later more vatic verse, is still worthy of study. As a
novelist his work is provocative and readable, but too
often descends to the level of the sentimental melodrama
which earned him, for a while, a very good income from the
stage. As a critic he was not profound, but was quick to
detect and praise expression of his own sympathy for humanity
that came to represent for him art's highest aspiration;
Dickens, Browning and Whitman were his heroes, and for the
last two he did sterling work in helping them to gain widespread
recognition. As a polemist he rushed into several
arenas, for some of which his talents were not especially
suited; but he publicly supported C. S. Parnell and Oscar
Wilde when few found the courage to do so. An interesting
man of impressive variety and undoubted talent has found an
undeserved neglect, and a full-scale critical biography of
Robert Buchanan is long overdue
Phosphoproteomics identifies microglial Siglec‐F inflammatory response during neurodegeneration
No full textAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by the appearance of amyloid‐β plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, and inflammation in brain regions involved in memory. Using mass spectrometry, we have quantified the phosphoproteome of the CK‐p25, 5XFAD, and Tau P301S mouse models of neurodegeneration. We identified a shared response involving Siglec‐F which was upregulated on a subset of reactive microglia. The human paralog Siglec‐8 was also upregulated on microglia in AD. Siglec‐F and Siglec‐8 were upregulated following microglial activation with interferon gamma (IFNγ) in BV‐2 cell line and human stem cell‐derived microglia models. Siglec‐F overexpression activates an endocytic and pyroptotic inflammatory response in BV‐2 cells, dependent on its sialic acid substrates and immunoreceptor tyrosine‐based inhibition motif (ITIM) phosphorylation sites. Related human Siglecs induced a similar response in BV‐2 cells. Collectively, our results point to an important role for mouse Siglec‐F and human Siglec‐8 in regulating microglial activation during neurodegeneration
