URL : http://journals.openedition.org/esa/1498 ; DOI : 10.4000/esa.1498 Études de Stylistique Anglaise LANGUAGE AND STYLE IN DAVID PEACE’S 1974: A CORPUS INFORMED ANALYSIS Dan McIntyre University of Huddersfield, UK Résumé : Cet article entend démontrer le potentiel interprétatif de l’analyse de corpus pour conforter ou corroborer une analyse stylistique qualitative. En s’intéressant à un passage du roman de David Peace, 1974, on démontre que l’analyse de corpus permet de valider des assertions qualitatives et de proposer une méthode relativement objective permettant de sélectionner un passage pour une analyse qualitative. Mots-clés : 1974, AntConc, linguistique de corpus, David Peace, “keyness”, Wmatrix. Introduction One of the inherent problems with analysing prose fiction is summed up by Leech and Short in their now famous Style in Fiction: …the sheer bulk of prose writing is intimidating; […] In prose, the problem of how to select – what sample passages, what features to study – is more acute, and the incompleteness of even the most detailed analysis more apparent.

    Matthew Brannon matthew brannon As the literary form of the new bourgeoisie, the biography is a sign of escape, or, to be more precise, of evasion. In order not to expose themselves through insights that question the very existence of the bourgeoisie, writers of biographies remain, as if up against a wall, at the threshold to which they have been pushed by world events. - SIGFRIED KRACAUER, The Biography as an Art Form of the New Bourgeoisie, 1930 in The Mass Ornament: Weimar Essays, Oxford University Press, 2002 Call yourself an actor? You’re not even a bad actor. You can’t act at all, you fucking stupid hopeless sniveling little cunt-faced cunty fucking shit-faced arse-hole… - LAURENCE OLIVIER to Laurence Havery from Robert Stephen’s Knight Errant: Memoirs of a Vagabond Actor, Hodder and Stoughton, 1995 In show business, it’s folly to talk about what the future holds. Things change so fast. Today’s project so easily becomes tomorrow’s disappointment… The world of the film star is an obstacle race against time. The pitfalls and wrong turnings you can make are devastating. Often I fear for the sanity of some of my friends… The dice are loaded against you. There’s so much bitchery around, you really have to fight hard to survive. Everybody is against you… you have to fight for… success, sell your soul for it even. And when one finally achieved success, it was resented. Not by the great stars like Frank Sinatra, but by the little, frustrated people. They’re the ones to look out for, because brother, they’re gunning for you.

In 2018, it emerged the DWP had detected higher rates of overpayment of Carer’s Allowance than in the past, following an exercise to match claims to earnings data. Most of the overpayments were caused by carers’ earnings exceeding the earnings limit. There are 850,000 people receiving Carer’s Allowance and it is thought nearly 80,000 carers are affected. Many overpayments were for one week, but in some cases overpayments continued for a decade. Around 70% of identified cases arose because carers failed to notify the DWP with the correct information about their earnings and they were therefore over the limit. Few cases involved fraud – most were due to honest mistakes on the part of carers or the failure of the DWP, due to staff shortages, to spot payment errors.

  • Cultural Representations of the Moors Murderers and Yorkshire Ripper Cases
    CULTURAL REPRESENTATIONS OF THE MOORS MURDERERS AND YORKSHIRE RIPPER CASES by HENRIETTA PHILLIPA ANNE MALION PHILLIPS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages School of Languages, Cultures, Art History, and Music College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham October 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis examines written, audio-visual and musical representations of real-life British serial killers Myra Hindley and Ian Brady (the ‘Moors Murderers’) and Peter Sutcliffe (the ‘Yorkshire Ripper’), from the time of their crimes to the present day, and their proliferation beyond the cases’ immediate historical-legal context. Through the theoretical construct ‘Northientalism’ I interrogate such representations’ replication and engagement of stereotypes and anxieties accruing to the figure of the white working- class ‘Northern’ subject in these cases, within a broader context of pre-existing historical trajectories and generic conventions of Northern and true crime representation. Interrogating changing perceptions of the cultural functions and meanings of murderers in late-capitalist socio-cultural history, I argue that the underlying structure of true crime is the counterbalance between the exceptional and the everyday, in service of which its second crucial structuring technique – the depiction of physical detail – operates.
