Gender Transformation In Virginia Woolf’s “Orlando” / VIRGINIA WOOLF’UN “ORLANDO”SUNDA CİNSİYET DÖNÜŞÜMÜ
No full textThroughout the history of art, from the Ancient Greek to the present day, sexual
personas create a certain paradigm with their own passwords. From time to time, the
things told about sexual personas were limited and censored or they caused a lot of
disturbance. With the loss of the impact of religion on art and society, these personas
who are original creations of a multi-layered and complicated accumulation have been
revived and they have been the inspiration for many artists. Bringing his subconscious
and unconscious attitudes together, the artist has focused on sexsual personas.
The identity, provides external attitude to come in sight and the “anima and animus”
forming the essence of inner attitude have come together in Virginia Woolf’s fragmental character Orlando. Author, avoids tackling sexuality and feelings arising from sexuality
in her novels has this time made a change and handled love passion in her novel called
Orlando intensively. It is said that Orlando is a half man-half woman, an androgynous,
reflects the lesbian tendencies of the author.
In this study, the gender transformation of the protagonist of Woolf’s work Orlando
adorned by fantastic elements will be explained via social gender roles. In order to
determine the perception of gender and sexual identity of the author who considers
the male-female dichotomy with ironic and paradoxical approach we will benefit from
queer theory which redifines identity differences thoroughly and considers their social,
intellectual, historical and cultural aspects and we will also benifit from the terms “anima
and animus” which take part as anthropomorphic archetypes of the subconscious in

Gender Benders: Shakespeare\u27s Rosalind and Woolf\u27s Orlando
No full textEnglish Renaissance playwright, William Shakespeare and twentieth century modernist author, Virginia Woolf’s works, “As You Like It” (1599) and “Orlando” (1928), respectively posit a vision of gender that transcends the physical sex of the body. The play’s heroine, Rosalind, and the novel’s protagonist, Orlando, each challenge the stability of the binary categories of male and female, demonstrating how gender is not absolute but rather a constantly adapting and evolving construct. This thesis traces the development of Rosalind and Orlando by analyzing and comparing both protagonists’ journeys towards concordia discors, considering how gender transformation plays a pivotal role in helping both figures transcend prescribed gender roles and restraints placed upon them by family and society. Both Rosalind and Orlando mount challenges to prescribed gender norms during periods when conservative gender roles were strictly enforced. By doing so, each character positions themselves as pivotal and progressive representations of gender performance for their time
Franjo Ksaver Orlando, the founder of the first maritime schools on the Adriatic sea
No full textThe author analyzes the contribution by the Jesuit Franjo Ksaver Orlando (1723-1784) in the establishment of the maritime schools (maritime library and instrumentation) on the Adriatic (first in Trieste and after the banning of the order in Rijeka).
Father Orlando wrote in the Italian language and signed himself as Francesco Saverio Orlando, so that Italians consider him their own because of his father. The author notes, however, that the Orlando family dwelled for a long time on Croatian soil, and that Franjo Orlando's mother was Croatian.
Father Orlando's loyalty toward Croatia is evidenced by the intercessions he undertook on behalf of his Croatian students. This indicates that he closely identified with his Croatian ancestry

Scenes from a family Memorial Day picnic, runs in pro-gun country where it is common to stockpile guns and make ammo and attend conceal and carry classes at the local church, to hearing the news about the Orlando nightclub massacre while on a family vacation with her pro-National Rifle Association (NRA) family show the author’s personal struggle of how to act in her personal life when family members possess radically different and contrasting political values. </jats:p

Pojęcie prawa administracyjnego i nauki prawa administracyjnego w koncepcji V.E. Orlando
No full textThe notion of administrative law and science of administrative law in the concept of V.E. OrlandoThe purpose of this article is to demonstrate the influence of German writers, first of all the pandectists, on the thought of V.E. Orlando and the role they played. Orlando was the founder and constructor of Italian public law scholarship. The paper is based on the research of F. Longchamps de Bérier, but also M.S. Giannini, A. Sandulli and S. Cassese. The article describes three issues-problems. The first concerns the reasons for and conditions of the study of V.E. Orlando, particularly historical conditions. The second focuses on the principal theses of his manifesto. The last question is dedicated to one of the major handbooks of administrative law by this author — Principi di diritto amministrativo. The results confirm the opinion of F. Longchamps de Bérier and S. Casses, that the conception of V.E. Orlando was the determinant of the pandectists thought.The notion of administrative law and science of administrative law in the concept of V.E.

Mental Files and the Theory of Fiction: A Reply to Zoltán Vecsey
No full textIn this work I reply to Zoltán Vecsey’s criticisms of the semantic account of fictional names I put forward in Orlando (2017). The main tenet of that proposal is that fictional names refer to individual concepts, which I understand in terms of mental files. In Vecsey (2020), the author presents three main objections: (i) no referential shift can be ascribed to fictional names, (ii) fictional names are supposed to play two conflicting functions, and (iii) the mental file framework is incompatible with an antirealist view of fictional objects. Although the objections are deep and thoughtful, the challenge they involve can be met if certain aspects of the proposal are clarified and developed
