  • Jack the Giant Killer Information File (PDF Okt
    Cor Hendriks, Jack the Giant Killer Information File (PDF okt. ’16) 1 Jack the Giant Killer From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chapbook title page "Jack the Giant Killer" is a British fairy tale and legend about a plucky (presumably) young adult who slays a number of giants during King Arthur's reign. The tale is characterised by violence, gore and blood-letting. Giants are prominent in Cornish folklore, Breton mythology and Welsh Bardic lore. Some parallels to elements and incidents in Norse mythology have been detected in the tale, and the trappings of Jack's last adventure with the Giant Galigantus suggest parallels with French and Breton fairy tales such as Bluebeard. Jack's belt is similar to the belt in "The Valiant Little Tailor", and his magical sword, shoes, cap, and cloak are similar to those owned by Tom Thumb or those found in Welsh and Norse mythology. Neither Jack nor his tale are referenced in English literature prior to the eighteenth century, and his story did not appear in print until 1711. It is probable an enterprising publisher assembled a number of anecdotes about giants to form the 1711 tale. One scholar speculates the public had grown weary of King Arthur – the greatest of all giant killers – and Jack was created to fill his shoes. Henry Fielding,John Newbery, Samuel Johnson, Boswell, and William Cowper were familiar with the tale. In 1962, a feature-length film based on the tale was released starring Kerwin Mathews. The film made extensive use of stop motion in the manner of Ray Harryhausen.

  • Toxic Pastoral: Comic Failure and Ironic Nostalgia in Contemporary British Environmental Theatre David Farrier, University of Edinburgh1
    Journal of Ecocriticism 6(2) July 2014 Toxic Pastoral: Comic Failure and Ironic Nostalgia in Contemporary British Environmental Theatre David Farrier, University of Edinburgh1 Abstract In what follows, I will read two recent versions of the pastoral—Jez Butterworth’s Jerusalem (2009) and Thomas Eccleshare’s Pastoral (2013)—as examples of the vitality which literary comic modes can offer to thinking about ecological dilemmas. Both invert and frustrate the conventional pastoral movement, wherein the equalising effects of release, reconciliation, and return are not realised. Rather, each play subjects the pastoral mode to actual or threatened displacement—in Eccleshare’s play the forest invades the city, whereas Butterworth dramatizes the efforts of civic authority to evict the green man from his wood—and makes this failure the basis of its exploration of the possibilities available in an eco-comic mode; finally, via the presentation of toxicity as a trope to, as Buell puts it, “unsettle[…] received assumptions about the boundaries of nature writing and environmental representation”, (Buell, 1998, 640) each play represents a version of pastoral that is alert and able to give form to the ironies, anxieties, and absurdities that inhere in contemporary environmental discourse. Pastoral, Post-pastoral, and Pastoral Comedy In his introduction to the Independent Panel on Forestry’s Final Report in July 2012, the Bishop of Liverpool, the Rt Rev James Jones, issued a familiar, pastoral lament: “as a society we have lost sight of the value of trees and woodlands,” he said, and thus of our connectedness “with nature, with history and with each other” (5).

  • This Spectred Isle Cavan Scott Explores the Countryside’S Strangest Tales the Mermaid of Zennor
    Published in Countryfile Magazine THIS SPECTRED ISLE Cavan Scott explores the countryside’s strangest tales The Mermaid of Zennor Every night the fishermen of Zennor in Cornwall would sing praises to God for their catch in the local parish church and every night a beautiful, if awkward, woman would slip into the back of the congregation to watch. The reason she came was Mathew Trewella, one of the fishermen, who was famed for having the finest voice on the coast. One day, the strange visitor couldn’t conceal her delight when Mathew sang, and she let out a soft sigh. Mathew turned and on seeing the woman, who seemed to have seaweed woven into her hair, he fell madly in love. His desire turned to confusion when the girl suddenly bolted for the door, tripping over her dress in her haste. From beneath the gown the parishioners caught a glimpse of shining, silver scales. Crying that they had a demon in their midst, the congregation turned into a mob and gave chase. Mathew ran scooped up his love and raced into the sea with her, vanishing beneath ahead and found the woman floundering on the shore, a sparkling fishtail the waves, never to be seen again. where her legs should be. He had discovered that he was in the presence However, the fishermen of yesteryear told how they could still hear him of Morveren, the mermaid daughter of Llyr, king of the sea.

  • Speaking Names У Казках І Народній Творчості: Лінгвокогнітивний Потенціал
    Закарпатські філологічні студії УДК 811.111’42 DOI https://doi.org/10.32782/tps2663-4880/2019.12.14 SPEAKING NAMES У КАЗКАХ І НАРОДНІЙ ТВОРЧОСТІ: ЛІНГВОКОГНІТИВНИЙ ПОТЕНЦІАЛ SPEAKING NAMES IN FAIRY-TALES AND FOLKLORE: LINGUOCOGNITIVE POTENTIAL Давидова Т.В., orcid.org/ 000-0001-5815-8503 кандидат філологічних наук, старший викладач кафедри практики англійської мови Сумського державного педагогічного університету імені А.С. Макаренка Стаття присвячена дослідженню онімів у паремійному фонді англійської мови: прислів’ях, приказках, казках. Speaking names – нетермінологічна назва онімів, вживана в лінгвістичних колах. Власні назви (оніми) належать до мовних універсалій: вони існують в усіх мовах світу, але в кожній мові мають свої специфічні ознаки. У результаті пізнавальної діяльності людина категоризує інформацію в межах певної концептуальної картини світу. Оскільки картини світу характеризуються національною специфікою, то носії різних мов можуть бачити та членувати світ по-різному, крізь призму своїх мов. У зв’язку з цим у статті здійснено спробу вивчити особливості мислення представників англомовної культури та зрозуміти специфічні риси їх менталітету. У статті окреслено семантичний простір онімів, здійснено їх семантичну типологізацію за тематичним принци- пом, встановлено їхній лінгвокогнітивний потенціал у паремійному фонді англійської мови та у казках. У процесі дослідження встановлено, що, з одного боку, ізольований від контексту онім, як і будь-яка лексична одиниця, має денотативне значення і позначає референта, а з іншого боку, саме у тексті / дискурсі можна експлікувати такі додаткові відтінки оніма, як суб’єктивна авторська оцінка, емотивність, експресивність, функціонально-стилістична забарвленість. Семантичний аналіз антропонімів доводить антропоцентричну спрямованість англомовної казки. Виявлено, що за кількісними показниками зооніми переважають антропоніми, проте більшість власних назв з анімалістичним компонентом на позначення тварин-референтів алюзивно номінують чесноти чи вади людини, що свідчить про напучуваний характер казок.

Let's finish with Shakespeare's alternate version, from King Lear , She sees polic Agatha Raisin is normally like comfort food for me: Always a pleasure and something to look forward to. A nonsense rhyme, usually heard as part of the Jack The Giant Killer fable. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. This was a free review copy obtained via Goodreads. Not that I really care who dunit, or feel anything for anyone, except a faint irritation at Agatha. The Blood of an Englishman provided me with several hours of reading bliss. A detective novel, part of the Zondi and Kramer series, told with tongue-in-cheek racist humour. I am a doubter for the following reasons: 1. They returned to Britain and bought a croft house and croft in Sutherland where Harry reared a flock of black sheep. Gareth Craven, heading the list of suspects, asks Agatha to investigate.

I normally love this series on audiobook but this one was a chore to listen to and get through. No characterisation, no plot development, switching from scene to scene and with weeks passing without explanation, Agatha herself flitting from man to man without rhyme or reason - this is not anywhere near as good as the ear Having got this book out of the library for my mum, knowing how much she enjoys an Agatha Raisin and remembering reading the first books in the series with my daughter when she was about 13 I thought I would give it a go.
