For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

  • Heldenfels Interview 2020 (Full)
    An Interview with Rich Heldenfels Rich Heldenfels is an associate lecturer of English at The University of Akron. You may have had him for a composition or film appreciation course. Most notably, you might have encountered him in the Akron Beacon Journal from 1994-2016 where he served a large chunk of his forty plus year career in the newspaper business as the TV critic and general pop culture reviewer. He is also the author of Television’s Greatest Year: 1954 and co-writer of multiple books, such as Ghoulardi: Inside Cleveland TV’s Wildest Ride and Cleveland TV Memories. AshBelt’s Poetry Editor Dylan Morris sat down with him to talk about his background, career, the troubles with switching careers, good and bad films, how Quentin Tarantino is overrated, and how incredible Antonio Banderas was in Pain and Glory. I wanted to get some of the basic stuff out of the way and ask what is your educational background? For the people who may not have had you for a class. My undergrad is a B.A in English from Princeton University which I got in 1973. I have a master’s from The University of Akron in English. I got the Master’s in 2011. Okay, are you from the Akron area? No. Okay, I was going to ask for you since you went to Princeton, and Akron is a much different area and culture. What do you think was the difference culturally for you? Especially coming back as a nontraditional student to Akron. Even with a huge time gap in between.

  • Semiotic Approach to the Analysis of Interpersonal Communication in Modern Comedies
    SEMIOTIC APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION IN MODERN COMEDIES Maria Kochetkova A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2010 Committee: Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor Lara Lengel Donald McQuarie © 2010 Maria Kochetkova All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor The present research takes a cultural prospective on the tensions in interpersonal relations based on the movies of the 90’s, such as Sleepless in Seattle (1993), As Good As It Gets (1997), and You’ve Got Mail (1998). The romantic comedy films of the 90’s were innovative in their genre, for they have touched upon serious drama subjects, hiding behind the “romantic” and “comedy’ style. Through the prism of the semiotic analysis I try to analyze how cultural codes play into the formation of hidden conflicts in interpersonal communication, mainly loneliness. Umberto Eco’s theory of the openness of the “author’s message” permits to illustrate the many possibilities of interpretation by the audience of the given films and allows an in-depth analysis of the cultural situation. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr Ellen Gorsevski, who has not only supported me throughout this process, but through her guidance I was able to see my research in a different way. I would like to thank my family, especially my mom and dad, Natalia and Alexander, without whom not only this project would not be possible, but only through their guidance and support I was able to understand the true meaning of education.

  • Extract from Nora Ephron's Book
    EXTRACT FROM NORA EPHRON’S BOOK : I FEEL BAD ABOUT MY NECK I've just surfaced from spending several days in a state of rapture: I was reading a book. I loved this book. I loved every second of it. I was transported into its world. I was reminded of all sorts of things in my own life. I was in anguish over the fate of its characters. I felt alive and engaged and positively brilliant, bursting with ideas, brimming with memories of other books I've loved. I composed a dozen imaginary letters to the author, letters I'll never write, much less send—letters of praise, letters of entirely inappropriate personal information about my own experiences with the author's subject matter, even a letter of recrimination when one of the characters died and I was grief-stricken. But mostly I composed imaginary letters of gratitude: The state of rapture that occurs when I read a wonderful book is one of the main reasons I read, but it doesn't happen every time, or even every other time, and when it does, I'm truly beside myself with joy. When I was a child, nearly every book sent me into something approaching bliss. Can I be romanticizing my early reading experiences? I don't think so.
