As Theresa settles to the gentle rhythm of seaside life she embraces her new-found friendships and freedom. However, life is never quite as simple as it seems and as skeletons start to fall out of several closets, Theresa begins to wonder if life on the French Riviera is quite as nice as it first appeared...

  • Elisaveta Fen's Chekhov Translations Claire Warden Since The
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository “A Glimpse of Another Russia”: Elisaveta Fen’s Chekhov translations Claire Warden Since the first British production of Anton Chekhov’s play The Seagull in 1909, audiences have found the Russian’s plays both beguiling and frustrating in seemingly equal measure. After living in Britain some years, Russian translator Elisaveta Fen began to recognize the problem: These plays are tragi-comedies: they are the stuff life is made of. They do not fit into any conventional category. Awkwardly presented, they can disappoint, baffle, irritate, or they can cast their spell over the spectator and make him feel 1 he is watching real people, living real lives—on the stage.0F Despite their ubiquity in twentieth- and twenty-first-century British theatre, Chekhov’s plays continue to bewilder audiences: they are tricky to define in terms of genre, and full of unpronounceable names and obscure references to places and cultures. Fen, the primary focus of this article, took up the unenviable challenge of making these plays more accessible to British audiences. Yet, she remains a marginal figure in British theatre historiographies; her name appears as ‘translator’ on numerous programmes and playbills but is rarely acknowledged further. This article claims Fen as an overlooked figure, recovering her work in order to place her within narratives of British theatre. In so doing it identifies her distinct semi-autobiographical, empathetic approach to the translation process. Her translations attempt to resolve a number of personal tensions—homesickness, her despair over the perceived destruction of her Russian idyll (and her frustration at British misunderstandings of this), and her concerns about fitting into British life.

  • Emotional Culture? an Investigation Into the Emotional Coverage of Televised Leader Debates in Newspapers and Twitter
    London South Bank University School of Arts and Creative Industries Emotional Culture? An Investigation into the Emotional Coverage of Televised Leader Debates in Newspapers and Twitter by Morgane Dani`eleKimmich Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of London South Bank University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2016 Abstract This thesis studies how emotions are used in and around TV debates by politi- cians during debates, by newspaper journalists in their coverage of debates and by Twitter users following debates and reacting to their coverage. Although emotions have been the focus of many studies recently, the literature that combines emo- tions with politics, journalism and social media remains limited. To fill this gap in knowledge, my research involves two case studies: the 2010 British election, where TV debates were held for the first time, and the 2012 American election, where debates are a long-standing tradition. For this purpose, my research is guided by the following research question: how far did political candidates, print media and Twitter users use emotions and emotional references in the 2010 British and 2012 American televised leader debates and their coverage? To answer this research question, I carried out a content analysis of the three British and four American debate transcripts; a framing analysis of 104 articles from the New York Post and 223 articles from The New York Times as well as 93 articles from The Sun and 238 articles from The Guardian; and, finally, a content analysis of a sample of American (30 000 tweets) and British tweets (3 000 tweets) posted during the debates period.

Dina Gusejnova illustrates how a supranational European mentality was forged from depleted imperial identities. In the revolutions of 1917–1920, the power of the Hohenzollern, Habsburg, and Romanoff dynasties over their subjects expired. Even though Germany lost its credit as a world power twice in that century, in the global cultural memory, the old Germanic families remained associated with the idea of Europe in areas reaching from Mexico to the Baltic region and India. Gusejnova’s book sheds light on a group of German-speaking intellectuals of aristocratic origin who became pioneers of Europe’s future regeneration. In the minds of transnational elites, the continent’s future horizons retained the con- tours of phantom empires.

    More Praise for A Very Dangerous Woman ‘McDonald and Dronfi eld’s summaries of events during the revolu- tionary period make a coherent narrative from a baffl ingly complex series of events.’ Guardian ‘There is an echo of foxy, seductive Scarlett O’Hara about Moura Budberg.’ Herald ‘A thrilling new biography of baroness and double agent Moura Budberg… Brave and multi-faceted, a mosaic monument to a mistress of deceit.’ Russia Beyond the Headlines ‘An astoundingly unbelievable life well retold in this gripping new biography. Well-written too. The book’s account of the Lockhart Aff air is particularly fascinating, recreating the paranoid, anti-Western world that was Soviet Russia in the late 1910s and early 1920s.’ Russian Life ‘A fast-paced story of European intrigue, featuring an enigmatic, strong- willed woman [whose] survival story is fascinating.’ Publishers Weekly ‘An extraordinarily complex story based on a fabulous cache of rich material… the end result really is an example of truth being stranger than fi ction.’ Good Book Guide ‘A rollicking good read.’ Country Life ‘The authors draw on diaries, correspondence, and newly released fi les to create a powerful study that attracts sympathy toward their subject.

As members of the Soviet Union’s first State Security organisation, by TSeptember 1918 the men already had a notorious reputation for making people disappear. The agents were led by Pavel Malkov, who was also the commandant of the Kremlin. His involvement suggested that the person they had come to arrest in this Moscow apartment block was someone of note. But far from being some Bolshevik who had fallen foul of the new regime, their target was a jug-eared Scotsman.
