  • Script Variation in Japanese Comics
    Language in Society 49, 357–378. doi:10.1017/S0047404519000794 Script variation as audience design: Imagining readership and community in Japanese yuri comics HANNAH E. DAHLBERG-DODD The Ohio State University, USA ABSTRACT Building on recent work supporting a sociolinguistic approach to orthograph- ic choice, this study engages with paratextual language use in yuri, a subgenre of Japanese shōjo manga ‘girls’ comics’ that centers on same-sex romantic and/or erotic relationships between female characters. The comic magazine Comic Yuri Hime has been the dominant, if not only, yuri-oriented published magazine in Japan since its inception in 2005. Though both written and consumed by a primarily female audience, the magazine has undergone nu- merous attempts to rebrand and refocus the target audience as a means to broaden the magazine’s readership. This change in target demographic is reflected in the stylistic representation of paratextual occurrences of the second-person pronoun anata, indicating the role of the textual landscape in reflecting, and reifying, an imagined target audience. (Script variation, manga, popular media, Japan, yuri manga) INTRODUCTION Building on recent work supporting a sociolinguistic approach to orthographic choice (e.g. Miyake 2007; Bender 2008; Sebba 2009, 2012; Jaffe 2012; Robertson 2017), this study analyzes the indexical potentialities of script variation in Japanese mass media discourse. The stylistic and visual resources that construct the speaking ‘voice’ are many, ranging from aural features such as voice quality (e.g. Teshigawara 2007; Redmond 2016) and structural ones like syntax and semantics (e.g. Sadanobu 2011) to more content-oriented ones like lexical variation (e.g.

This inaugu- rated the “Jarring Lectures” series arranged by the Swedish Research Institute of Istanbul (SFII), and it is planned that, after a second lec- ture by Professor Staffan Rosén in 1999 and a third one by Dr. Bernt Brendemoen in 2000, the series will continue on a regular, annual, basis. The Editors Discoveries on the Turkic Linguistic Map Linguistic documentation in the field The topic of the present contribution, dedicated to my dear and admired colleague Gunnar Jarring, is linguistic fõeld research, journeys of discovery aiming to draw the map of the Turkic linguistic world in a more detailed and adequate way than done before. The survey will start with the period of the classical pioneering achievements, particu- larly from the perspective of Scandinavian Turcology. It will then pro- ceed to current aspects of language documentation, commenting brief- ly on a number of ongoing projects that the author is particularly fami- liar with.

  • SLOVO Honeyland
    SLOVO Film review Honeyland Tamara Kotevska, Ljubomir Stefanov, 2018 Screenwriters: Tamara Kotevska, Ljubomir Stefanov Place: North Macedonia Studios: Trice Films, Apolo Media Length: 87 minutes Language: Balkan Gagauz Turkish Alex Figurski, University College London. Honeyland is a film from the countryside gone global. Set in the rural Balkans, a woman tending to wild bees has her way of life disrupted by rowdy new neighbours, bringing with them the demands of modernity and need for greater yields. And so this uniquely North Macedonian documentary – featuring a variety of cultural references and showcasing the country’s glorious stone-washed landscapes – carries an ecological message of worldwide relevance: Is our consumerism destroying the planet? The protagonist is Hatidže Muratova, a lone beekeeper in the near-abandoned village of Bekirlija. She is completely at one with her surroundings. She hikes up and down steep mountains, facing wild bees with minimal protective gear. She harvests the honey using wisdom passed on by previous generations and keeps her hive well-fed: “half for them, half for me”. Every so often, she travels to Skopje, the capital, to sell her produce directly to the market stall vendors, bringing back bananas and chestnut-coloured hair dye. Her quiet life is disturbed when a large family moves in next door, with the intention of earning extra income by producing their own honey. However, without Hatidže’s local knowledge and driven by consumer demand for ever increasing quantities of honey, they pay little attention to the damage they are doing to the beehive and the environment around them. Contrasting the lives of Hatidže and the family next door, Honeyland is a film about a traditional way of life which we may feel we can never go back to and, on the other hand, a mass consumption culture which cannot be sustainable for long.

  • Mutual Intelligibility Among the Turkic Languages
    Mutual Intelligibility Among the Turkic Languages By Robert Lindsay Abstract: The Turkic family of languages with all important related dialects was analyzed on the basis of mutual intelligibility: (1) To determine the extent to which various Turkic lects can understand each other. (2) To ascertain whether various Turkic lects are better characterized as full languages in the own in need of ISO codes from SIL or rather as dialects of another language. (3) To analyze the history of various Turkic lects in an attempt to write a proper history of the important lects. (4) To attempt to categorize the Turkic languages in terms of subfamilies, sub-sub families, etc. The results were: (1) Rough intelligibility figures for various Turkic lects, related lects and Turkish itself were determined. Surprisingly, it was not difficult to arrive at these rough estimates. (2) The Turkic family was expanded from Ethnologue's 41 languages to 53 languages. Splitting: a number of new languages were created from existing dialects, as these dialects were better characterized as full languages than as dialects of another tongue. Lumping: a few existing languages were eliminated and re-analyzed as dialects of another or newly created language. (3) Full and detailed histories for many Turkic lects were written up in a coherent, easy to understand way, a task sorely needed in Turkic as histories of Turkic lects are often confused, inaccurate, controversial, and incomplete. (4) A new attempt was made at categorizing the Turkic family that rejects and rewrites some of the better-known characterizations. Acknowledgments: This paper could not be written without the generous support and kind, wise heart of Professor Suer Eker of Bashkent University in Ankara, who is in charge of the book project where this article is published.

Since the 1990s, proposals to construct highways, dams, ports and airports, railways, as well as to redevelop neighborhoods, have been opposed by a wide range of stakeholders. In response, there is a growing interest among Japanese practitioners in using consensus building processes, as practiced in the US, in order to resolve infrastructure disputes.
