Taboo Words for better Intercultural Competence: Why not? Context, meaning and use of palavrões in the Teaching of Brazilian Portuguese as a Foreign Language in India. Rio de Janeiro, 2021. 276p. Tese de Doutorado- Departamento de Letras, Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro This study on taboo words focuses on the observation of use of palavrões in nine episodes of the comedy series Porta dos Fundos (PdF) as portrayal of discursive practices of residents of the city of Rio de Janeiro (Cariocas), primarily through theories of: Lexiculture (Galisson, 1988); Semantic and Pragmatics (Goffman, 1967; Camara Jr., 1981; Jay, 2008; Carretero, 2011); Interculturalism (Bennett, 1998; Lewis, 2006; Hofstede, 2010; Ting-Toomey & Chung, 2012); and Foreign Language Teaching (Bennett, 1998; Byram, 2000; Ting-Toomey & Chung, 2012; Liddicoat, 2005, 2013). Through a qualitative interpretative methodology taboo words are analysed in nine episodes of the popular situational comedy online series Porta dos Fundos. Seven more frequently used taboo words by Cariocas, namely buceta, cu, caralho, foder, pau, porra and puta, are analysed and interpreted. The semantic and pragmatic use of taboo words demonstrates that they belong to the themes of sexual anatomy, sexual activity, scatology, illicit sex and animal names – although the latter ones are not classified as taboo words. They are compared with Hindi taboo words wherever applicable. The frequent use of taboo words in comedies, satires and other forms of entertainment, as well as in different types of communicative situations, is not, as generally perceived, i.e., a face threatening act (Goffman, 1967) in Portuguese, opposed to what happens in Hindi. The analysis also shows that the Cariocas, as multi-active Brazilians (Lewis, 2006), depending on the pragmatic variables, use taboo words as expressive speech acts to communicate emotions, not always carrying an offensive tone, as when used as interjections. A TbWs didactic proposal is presented for the teachers and students of Brazilian Portuguese as a Foreign Language in India. KEYWORDS Brazilian Portuguese as a Foreign Language in India; Lexiculture, Semantics and Pragmatics; Interculturalism and Foreign Language Teaching; Taboo words 7 Resumo Sharma, Manjulata; Meyer, Rosa Marina de Brito (Orientadora). Palavras-tabu para uma melhor competência intercultural: Por que não? Contexto, significado e uso de palavrões no Ensino de Português do Brasil como Língua Estrangeira na Índia Rio de Janeiro, 2021. 276p. Tese de Doutorado- Departamento de Letras, Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro O presente estudo sobre palavras tabus focaliza o uso de palavrões em nove episódios de Porta dos Fundos como forma de desvendar as práticas discursivas dos residentes do Rio de Janeiro (cariocas) por meio das teorias, principalmente, de: Lexicultura (Galisson, 1988); Semântica e Pragmática (Goffman, 1967; Camara Jr., 1981; Jay, 2008, Carretero, 2011); Interculturalismo (Bennett, 1998; Lewis, 2006; Hofstede, 2010; Ting-Toomey & Chung, 2012); e Didática das Línguas Estrangeiras (Bennett, 1998; Byram, 2000; Liddicoat, 2005, 2013). Através de metodologia qualitativa interpretativa, palavras tabus são analisadas em nove episódios da popular comédia situacional da série online Porta dos Fundos. Sete palavras tabus usadas muito frequentemente nas práticas discursivas dos cariocas, nomeadamente buceta, cu, caralho, foder, pau, porra e puta, são analisadas e interpretadas. O uso semântico e pragmático dessas palavras de ofensa demonstra que se situam nos campos da anatomia sexual, da atividade sexual, da escatologia, do sexo ilícito e dos nomes dos animais – estes, não classificados como palavrão. Onde considerado relevante faz-se uma comparação com palavras tabus em hindi. Observa-se que o uso frequente das palavras tabus em comédias, sátiras e outras formas de entretenimento, assim como em outras situações

  • Online, on the Couch, Or on the Move: the Contours of the Evolving
    Online, On the Couch, or On the Move: The Contours of the Evolving Video Market. Morgan Taylor Kate Stirling Econ 411 December 20th, 2013 2 Abstract This paper examines the impact of YouTube on the video content market. Previous research is examined to determine the scope of the online migration thus far and its effect on the traditional video market (television). Analysis of YouTube’s user data and earnings reveals that YouTube has a monopolistically competitive market structure. YouTube’s user-friendly environment grants consumers greater control over when, how and what they watch. As the leader of the online market, research indicates YouTube’s competitive characteristics are moving the larger media market to a more competitive environment in which consumers are given a larger range of media options at lower prices. Keywords: YouTube, online video market, Media market, oligopoly, monopolistic competition, user-generated content, branded-content 3 Introduction Remember that time when we all gathered around the family TV and watched that one show almost everyone else in America with a TV was watching? Neither do I. The times in which everybody watched the same small handful of programs ended decades ago. The home- viewing audience became fragmented with the advent of cable TV, and then even more so with the arrival of online viewing platforms such as YouTube, Netflix and other online sites (both legal and otherwise). These technological innovations have given consumers more power over what, when and how they watch video content. They are no longer bound to the schedule printed in the weekly TV guide.

  • State of Artistic Freedom 2020 Report Is a Research Feelings
    THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2020 FREEMUSE THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2020 1 Freemuse is an independent international organisation advocating for and defending freedom of artistic expression. We believe that at the heart of violations of artistic freedom is the effort to silence opposing or less preferred views and values by those in power – politically, religiously or societally – mostly due to fear of their transformative effect. With this assumption, we can address root causes rather than just symptoms – if we hold violators accountable. Our approach to artistic freedom is human rights-based as it provides an international legal framework and lays out the principles of accountability, equality and non-discrimination, and participation. ©2020 Freemuse. All rights reserved. Design and illustration: www.NickPurserDesign.com Editor: Dr Srirak Plipat Freemuse thanks those who spoke to us for this report, especially the artists who took risks to take part in this research. We also thank everyone who stands up for the human right to artistic freedom. Every effort has been made to verify the accuracy of the information contained in this report. All information was believed to be correct as of March 2020. Nevertheless, Freemuse cannot accept responsibility for the consequences of its use for other purposes or in other contexts. This report is kindly supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Fritt Ord Norway. THE STATE OF ARTISTIC FREEDOM 2020 FREEMUSE Today, perhaps all of us wonder “ whether a trigger pulled, a steering wheel turned, or a pin tugged by the fingers of some violent extremist will strike down our future prematurely.
