Mažasis žmogus V. Folknerio kūryboje
No full textMan in the hostile capitalist world, man in a conflict with himself - these are the centrai problems of W. Faulkner\u27s creation. With a view of revealing the main qualities of Faulkner\u27s man (his refusal to put up with circumstances of life, an attempt to protect his dignity, his struggle for justice), the author of the paper analyses the images of representatives of the people.
An unfortunate farmer (the Bundrens - "As I Lay Dying"), a farm labourer (Wash Jones - "Absalom! Absalom!"), a landless leaseholder (Mink Snopes - "The Hamlet", "The Town", "The Mansion"), being in a close contact with the earth, do preserve their live human nature. Primitively, yet naturally, they resist the crushing moral effects of the capitalist system - dehumanization and alienation.
In this world, Faulkner\u27s man attempts to perceive his self and the value of his own existence (Addie Bundren, Darl Bundren), he protests unconsciously against the humiliation of his dignity (Wash Jones), and goes a long way of developing his consciousness (Mink Snopes).
Faulkner\u27s little man is an embodiment of uncrushable pride, stoicism, obstinacy, and fury. These qualities are his only shield to protect him from blows of the cruel reality.Žmogus priešiškoje jam kapitalistinėje visuomenėje, žmogaus kova su pačiu savimi - centrinės Viljamo Folknerio kūrybos temos. Straipsnio autorė, norėdama atskleisti svarbiausius Folknerio žmogaus bruožus - atsisakymą taikstytis su gyvenimo aplinkybėmis, siekimą apginti žmogiškąjį orumą, kovą už teisingumą - analizuoja liaudies atstovų paveikslus.
Bedalis fermeris (Bandrenų šeima - „Kai aš gulėjau mirties patale“), samdinys (Vošas Džounsas - „Absalomai! Absalomai!“), bežemis nuomininkas (Minkas Snoupsas - „Kaimelis“, „Miestas“, „Rūmas“), tiesiogiai susiję su žeme, išsaugo gyvą žmogišką pradą. Primityviai, bet natūraliai jie priešinasi gniuždantiems kapitalistinės santvarkos faktoriams - nužmoginimui, susvetimėjimui.
Šiame pasaulyje Folknerio žmogus mėgina suvokti save ir savojo egzistavimo prasmę (Edė Bandren, Darias Bandrenas), jis nesąmoningai sukyla prieš jo žmogiško orumo žeminimą (Vošas Džounsas) ir nueina ilgą sąmonėjimo kelią (Minkas Snoupsas). Mažasis Folknerio žmogus nesugniuždytas, išdidus, stoiškas, atkaklus
Determinants of recovery from post-COVID-19 dyspnoea: analysis of UK prospective cohorts of hospitalised COVID-19 patients and community-based controls
Get PDFBackground
The risk factors for recovery from COVID-19 dyspnoea are poorly understood. We investigated determinants of recovery from dyspnoea in adults with COVID-19 and compared these to determinants of recovery from non-COVID-19 dyspnoea.
Methods
We used data from two prospective cohort studies: PHOSP-COVID (patients hospitalised between March 2020 and April 2021 with COVID-19) and COVIDENCE UK (community cohort studied over the same time period). PHOSP-COVID data were collected during hospitalisation and at 5-month and 1-year follow-up visits. COVIDENCE UK data were obtained through baseline and monthly online questionnaires. Dyspnoea was measured in both cohorts with the Medical Research Council Dyspnoea Scale. We used multivariable logistic regression to identify determinants associated with a reduction in dyspnoea between 5-month and 1-year follow-up.
Findings
We included 990 PHOSP-COVID and 3309 COVIDENCE UK participants. We observed higher odds of improvement between 5-month and 1-year follow-up among PHOSP-COVID participants who were younger (odds ratio 1.02 per year, 95% CI 1.01–1.03), male (1.54, 1.16–2.04), neither obese nor severely obese (1.82, 1.06–3.13 and 4.19, 2.14–8.19, respectively), had no pre-existing anxiety or depression (1.56, 1.09–2.22) or cardiovascular disease (1.33, 1.00–1.79), and shorter hospital admission (1.01 per day, 1.00–1.02). Similar associations were found in those recovering from non-COVID-19 dyspnoea, excluding age (and length of hospital admission).
Interpretation
Factors associated with dyspnoea recovery at 1-year post-discharge among patients hospitalised with COVID-19 were similar to those among community controls without COVID-19.
