Catharsis: the Common Goal of Storytelling and Life
Catharsis: The Common Goal of Storytelling and Life Dr.Stanislav.Semerdjiev Full Professor of Screenwriting & Rector, NATFA [email protected] Catharsis: The Common Goal of Storytelling and Life 1. Classical Catharsis The term “catharsis” has been in circulation long before the times of Aristotle but nowadays we all accept that he is its reputed author. Unfortunately, the pages in Poetics containing its explanation though, have been irrevocably lost. On the other hand, we still have the passages in Politics where Aristotle defines the same term in respect to emotions and/or physiology, and those in Nicomachean Ethics from which an ethical interpretation could undeniably be derived. It is both impossible and unreasonable to try and trace all interpreters’ ideas in this short text. Therefore, I have chosen to roughly group them in three major trends. 1.1. Ethical or/and Aesthetic Catharsis The ethico-aesthetic interpretations probably started in 1634 with the presentation of the official rules of the French Academy for dramatic composition, which were centered on the notion of the audience’s emotional purgation (i.e., catharsis) as the main function of tragedy. For this to happen though, the public had to absolutely believe in what they saw on stage. By rationally comparing it to their own life (and finding out other people experienced the same and even worse situations) the audience, then, could feel relieved from their painful emotions. But this could only be achieved if the author used the rule of the three “dramatic unities” (those of action, time and place) attributed to Aristotle. The dogmatic view imposed on all dramatic works started the 200-year epic battle of “des anciens et des modernes”. -

Use of English in Advertising and Journalistic Discourse of the Expanding Circle: Data from Bulgarian Magazines
Use of English in advertising and journalistic discourse of the Expanding circle: data from Bulgarian magazines Maya Bogdanova May 2010 Department of English Master Degree Project World Englishes Spring 2010 Supervisor: Philip Shaw Abstract The combination of the socio-political changes following 1989 and the current status of English as the language of international communication promoted dynamic transformations of the attitude and usages of English in Bulgaria. The purpose of this study is to investigate the forms, functions and symbolic value of English in the Bulgarian advertising and journalistic discourse. The emphasis is on non-established words as opposed to established borrowings. Two hypotheses encapsulating the possible relation between English usages in advertising and journalistic discourses are in the centre of investigation: Hypothesis 1 The use of the English language remains on the symbolic and visual level in the Bulgarian advertising and journalistic discourses. Hypothesis 2 The symbolic value of English usage in advertising discourse is the same as that of journalistic discourse. Prior to the analyses, the study introduces an overview of the Bulgarian linguistic situation and a summary of studies in the area of contact phenomena between English and Bulgarian. Special attention is paid to publications discussing advertising and journalistic discourse. On the base of two principles – genre and readership – six magazines have been selected to provide the data for the study: Маниджър (Manager); Story, Наш Дом (Our Home), Жената Днес (The Woman Today), Журнал за Жената (Women’s Journal), and Top Gear България (Top Gear Bulgaria). Using a set of criteria the process of collecting data has extracted the occurrences of English from all advertisements, section and column headings, article titles, and the featured article of each issue.
