  • Cosmopolitanism, Remediation and the Ghost World of Bollywood
    COSMOPOLITANISM, REMEDIATION, AND THE GHOST WORLD OF BOLLYWOOD DAVID NOVAK CUniversity ofA California, Santa Barbara Over the past two decades, there has been unprecedented interest in Asian popular media in the United States. Regionally identified productions such as Japanese anime, Hong Kong action movies, and Bollywood film have developed substantial nondiasporic fan bases in North America and Europe. This transnational consumption has passed largely under the radar of culturalist interpretations, to be described as an ephemeral by-product of media circulation and its eclectic overproduction of images and signifiers. But culture is produced anew in these “foreign takes” on popular media, in which acts of cultural borrowing channel emergent forms of cosmopolitan subjectivity. Bollywood’s global circulations have been especially complex and surprising in reaching beyond South Asian diasporas to connect with audiences throughout the world. But unlike markets in Africa, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia, the growing North American reception of Bollywood is not necessarily based on the films themselves but on excerpts from classic Bollywood films, especially song-and- dance sequences. The music is redistributed on Western-produced compilations andsampledonDJremixCDssuchasBollywood Beats, Bollywood Breaks, and Bollywood Funk; costumes and choreography are parodied on mainstream television programs; “Bollywood dancing” is all over YouTube and classes are offered both in India and the United States.1 In this essay, I trace the circulation of Jaan Pehechaan Ho, a song-and-dance sequence from the 1965 Raja Nawathe film Gumnaam that has been widely recircu- lated in an “alternative” nondiasporic reception in the United States.

The rise in detective ction is followed by the surge of theories on this genre, particularly informed by (post)modern readings.

  • 8Th Grade Book Overviews and Then There Were None (Ten Little Indians) by Agatha Christie Ten People, Each with a Guilty Secret
    8th Grade Book Overviews And Then There Were None (Ten Little Indians) by Agatha Christie Ten people, each with a guilty secret, are lured to an isolated island off the Devon coast. Shortly after they arrive, a mysterious voice accuses each of them of murder. And then, one by one, they begin dying. Who is killing them? Where is he or she hiding? Is the murderer in fact one of them? *Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson Jacqueline Woodson, one of today's finest writers, tells the moving story of her childhood in mesmerizing verse. Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In vivid poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child's soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson's eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer she was to become. Esperanza Rising by Pam Muñoz Ryan Esperanza thought she'd always live like a princess on their Mexican ranch, but disaster strikes, and her life starts over in the U.S. Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley Victor Frankenstein is a mad scientist who makes a giant monster out of dead bodies — and brings it to life!

The story began by introducing eight persons who were invited to The Indian Island by a person who claimed to be an old friend. Arriving in the island, the guests were only welcomed by a couple who were hired to be the house keeper and the cook. One by one of ten persons living in that house were killed based on the nursery rhyme hanged on the wall of each room. This paper is aimed to find out the reason and the personality of each character which resulted in them being killed. Content analysis was applied to gather and analyze the data from the novel. It was found out that Marston was the first to be killed because of his careless personality and the least sin he made in the past. Claythorne was the last to be killed because she made the biggest sin and therefore, suffered a lot from fear and guilt which made her hang herself with the equipment prepared by the murderer.
