Liminality, Marginality and Narrative Mode in David Belbin's Fiction
What We Don’t Know: Liminality, Marginality and Narrative Mode in David Belbin’s Fiction DAVID LAWRENCE BELBIN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2016 1 I certify that all of the following material is my own work and the essay consists of original work undertaken solely for the purposes of this PhD. This work is the intellectual property of the owner. You may copy up to 5% of this work for private study, or personal, non-commercial research. Any re- use of the information contained within this document must be fully referenced, quoting the author, title, university, degree level and pagination. Queries or requests for any other use, or if a more substantial copy is required, should be directed to the owner of the intellectual property rights. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis consists of a selection of my published work from 1989-2015, accompanied by an essay and a bibliography. The essay looks at the ways in which I am drawn towards marginal and liminal zones within fiction, including the areas between Young Adult (YA) and Adult fiction, crime fiction and literary fiction, and that between depicting reality and fictionalising it. I also consider the use of narrative mode in defining these liminal areas. By ‘liminal’, I mean occupying a position at, or on both sides of a boundary or threshold, rather than the word’s other, looser sense, where it means ‘vague’. The examples of fiction selected are intended to display the range of my published work since joining Nottingham Trent University.

The YA Novel in the Digital Age by Amy Bright a Thesis
The YA Novel in the Digital Age by Amy Bright A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Department of English and Film Studies University of Alberta © Amy Bright, 2016 Abstract Recent research by Neilsen reports that adult readers purchase 80% of all young adult novels sold, even though young adult literature is a category ostensibly targeted towards teenage readers (Gilmore). More than ever before, young adult (YA) literature is at the center of some of the most interesting literary conversations, as writers, readers, and publishers discuss its wide appeal in the twenty-first century. My dissertation joins this vibrant discussion by examining the ways in which YA literature has transformed to respond to changing social and technological contexts. Today, writing, reading, and marketing YA means engaging with technological advances, multiliteracies and multimodalities, and cultural and social perspectives. A critical examination of five YA texts – Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief, Libba Bray’s Beauty Queens, Daniel Handler’s Why We Broke Up, John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, and Jaclyn Moriarty’s The Ghosts of Ashbury High – helps to shape understanding about the changes and the challenges facing this category of literature as it responds in a variety of ways to new contexts. In the first chapter, I explore the history of YA literature in order to trace the ways that this literary category has changed in response to new conditions to appeal to and serve a new generation of readers, readers with different experiences, concerns, and contexts over time.

Understanding Bollywood Films (Courtesy of Nadine Dable)
Understanding Bollywood Films (courtesy of Nadine Dable) Influences: - Sanskrit theatre (the nine traditional rasas, see below) - Popular theatre (in particular Parsi theatre, which frequently combines both Indian and Western dramatic traditions) - The great Sanskrit epics (Ramayana, Mahabharata) - Western cinematic conventions Censorship: - initially, during British occupation, political censorship (with regard to independence movements) - erotic scenes, in particular kissing Typical/recurrent elements: Hybridity: Indian films are supposed to address themselves to, and reflect, all (or as many as possible of) the 9 “rasas”, that is, moods, or emotions: shringara (love, beauty, devotion), hasya (joy, humour, sarcasm), adbhuta (wonder, curiosity, mystery), shanta (peace, calmness, relaxation), raudra (anger, irritation, stress), veera (courage, pride, confidence), karuna (sadness, compassion, pity, sympathy), bhayanaka (fear, anxiety, worry), vibshata (disgust, depression, self-pity). As a result – and also as a legacy of the heterogeneous influences which Bollywood films have absorbed), they are hybrid in terms of their filmic genres as well (romance, thriller, political thriller, action film, western, fantasy, musical, comedy etc. etc.). One of the most important of these elements is the musical – song and dance routines (solos, duets, group performances with “supporting” dancers and singers). Characters: characters are often stereotypical (or “flat” in lit.crit. terms), for instance the strict patriarch, the scheming grandmother, the comedian etc.; the actors often use gestures, facial expressions etc. which seem exaggerated to western spectators. Some of these gestures are not easy to interpret as body language must be understood in the context of a given culture (examples: touching another person’s feet in order to express one’s respect for this person, shaking one’s thumb to express disapproval etc.).
