Her enthusiasm, determination and many useful ideas have always inspired me to keep going. I would also like to thank my sponsors: Economic and Social Science Research Council (ESRC) of UK (2008-11) provided me with a generous grant, which allowed me to start this project in the first place. Thanks also to Ad futura - Slovene human resources development and scholarship fund (2 0 1 0 - 11) for covering some of my living expenses. Many thanks to Sharon McCulloch, who proofread the entire thesis despite the first spring sun being out all week! While in Lancaster, I met many incredible people with whom we shared houses, many lunches, had walks, barbeques and chat. First, thanks to Marjorie Wood, the Linguistics departmental coordinator, for all her help during the years. Also, thanks to Alexandra Polyzou, Majid KhosraviNik, Eleonor Lamb, Ayako Tominari, Bernhard Forchtner, Deepak Garg, Atif Sarwar and Philippa Shoesmith. Also thanks to my office mates Mazura Muhammad, Jo Thistlethwaite and Salomi Boukala, without whom an everyday PhD student life would not be as exciting as it always was. I would also like to thank John Heywood, in particular for all his support in the last months of the writing up process. 2 Thanks to many friends in Slovenia, especially Petra Slavec, Tanja Labus and Bostjan Kokoravec, who always found time for a coffee when I was around, and Taj a Kramberger and Braco Rotar for many interesting intellectual discussions. I would also like to thank my family for their support and understanding while undertaking this project, in particular my sister Julija, as well as my parents and grandparent whose initial attitude towards Jamie Oliver was not only an inspiration for the thesis, but who never stopped believing that the project would one day come to an end. As usually, they were right, and this is why this thesis is dedicated to them. Finally, I would like to thank Jijesh, for his incredible optimism, humour, patience and understanding while preparing the thesis. The journey would surely not be as interesting without you! 3 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the recontextualization and localization of global culinary discourse to Slovenia after its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991 and its transition into a free market economy. Slovenia and its emerging celebrity chefs, Luka and Valentina Novak, are an example of the ‘local’, whereas the global is represented by the British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver. The study is based on culinary texts from Oliver and the Novaks’ cookbooks. However, ‘standard’ Slovene cookbook texts are also analysed with the aim of showing the difference between the previous educational role of cookbooks and the contemporary, increasingly edutaining role of the new ‘celebrity’ cookbooks. This study is situated within critical discourse analysis and it generally draws on the methodological framework of the discourse-historical approach (‘DHA’) (Reisigl and Wodak 2001), but also combines this with theoretical insights from the dialectic- relational approach (Fairclough 2010, 1992, 2001 [1989]). Its underlying theoretical focus has been recontextualization, which is one of the salient concepts within ‘CDA’ (e.g. Wodak and Fairclough 2010; Chouliaraki 1998). The model of recontextualization that I presented in this thesis (based on the definition of discourse in ‘DHA’) enables me to show how global culinary discourse has been recontextualised from Britain to Slovenia, via, firstly, a translation of Jamie Oliver’s cookbooks, and secondly, via the production of an original local discourse. The main claim of this thesis is that under the influence of global culinary discourse, local representations related to food and taste change, and so do cookbooks as genres. While recontextualization as translation results in appropriation of the text to the local circumstances in terms of genre conventions, branding opportunities, country-related representations (e.g. Italy) and the reconfirmation of the national identity, the second phase of recontextualisation reveals the characteristics of the locally produced discourse based on global characteristics. Compared to the ‘standard’ Slovene cookbooks, its ‘celebrity’ variant aims to reconstructs the national culinary identity via legitimation of the tastes of the new middle classes. Influenced by the global model, the Novaks’ tend to represent food and foodstuffs relying on characteristics found in advertising while social actors are often synthetically personified (Fairclough 1989). Likewise, various perspectives construct a seemingly democratisized discourse and disperse the top-down authority as found in ‘standard’ cookbooks. Key-words: recontextualization, culinary discourse, globalization, lifestyle, Jamie Oliver, Slovenia, cookbooks Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis is my own work, and has not been submitted in substantially the same form for the award of a higher degree elsewhere.

    MEDIA RELEASE Friday 20 November 2015 GP tickets on sale Friday 27 November SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE PRESENTS NIGELLA LAWSON IN CONVERSATION WITH ANNABEL CRABB Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House, Wednesday 20 January 2016 The woman who put the pleasure back into food, Nigella Lawson, will bring her trademark wit and warmth to the Sydney Opera House this summer in the latest in a series of sold-out appearances by contemporary culinary stars, including Yotam Ottolenghi, Alice Waters and Jamie Oliver. Lawson will take to the Concert Hall stage on 20 January, 2016 for an evening of conversation with the woman who puts the politics into food, the host of the ABC’s Kitchen Cabinet Annabel Crabb. Lawson’s Sydney Opera House appearance coincides with the launch of her first book in three years, Simply Nigella, which – as its title suggests – encapsulates Lawson’s joyfully relaxed and uncomplicated approach to food. Her debut cookbook, How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food, and television show Nigella Bites made Lawson a household name. She has since become a prominent figure on the Food Network, Foxtel and Channel 10. Lawson was named Author of the Year by the British Book Awards for How to Be a Domestic Goddess: Baking and the Art of Comfort Cooking – hailed as the book that launched a thousand cupcakes – and was voted Best Food Personality in a readers’ vote at the Observer Food Monthly Awards in 2014. Ann Mossop, Head of Talks and Ideas at the Sydney Opera House, says “Nigella Lawson has charmed us all with her approach to food and cooking, and we cannot wait to welcome her to the Concert Hall stage with Ideas at the House favourite, Annabel Crabb.

    Elements of Historical Anthropology (2nd grade) Instructors: Drago Rotar & Taja Kramberger Spring Semester 2007/2008 (14 courses, 90 min/week; 14 research seminars, 180 min/week) Lectures: Tue, 19.10–20.40: LEVANT 4 Research seminar: Wed, 15.00–18.15: LEVANT2 Office Hours: Wed, 18.15–19.10 (after the seminar in the cabinet) E-mails: [email protected] [email protected] See also Taja Kramberger’s web-page (About the Dreyfus Affair): http://tajakramberger.wordpress.com/afera-dreyfus-the-dreyfus-affair-laffaire-dreyfus/ 1. Course Overview: In the frames of this course – during its lectures – students will get to know different approaches and perspectives in historiography between 18th and 21th Centuries. Special stress will be given to the shaping of a special French paradigm of making history called historical anthropology (anthropologie historique). We will examine its gradual formation, its particularities, some of its concepts for social analysis, its leaders and orbits, its institutions (such as: journal Annales, school EHESS etc.). We will also verify its dissemination outside France and become aware of its criticisms. At the end of the course we’ll debate the achievements of historical anthropology in the light of Slovene historiography, its methods and its discursive representations. 2. Research seminar overview: Starting with this year (2007/2008) we’re launching an undergraduate research seminar, which has an aim to arm an undergraduate student with a model of an investigative praxis, help him/her to form his/her own comprehension of social world and make suitable and coherent arguments. At the same time students will get to know research methods and benefit in using some of the notions and concepts from lectures in the investigation itself.

Rather than mere icons of a predetermined and “given” Italianness, the two men’s simultaneous popularity, representing such differing political beliefs and embodying such starkly different masculine ideals, points to the complexity of the “Americanization” of ur- ban Italian Americans in the 1920s. Mussolini’s new, heroic manhood offered immigrants an opportunity to celebrate stereotypically male and American values in a self-consciously Italian form.

  • Ugly Duckling Presse
    Ugly Duckling Presse LOOK BACK, LOOK AHEAD: The Selected Poems of Srečko Kosovel Translated from the Slovenian by Barbara Siegel Carlson and Ana Jelnikar Eastern European Poets Series #26 ISBN: 978-1-933254-54-8 $17 | Poetry 232 pages | original paperback | bilingual edition Release date: March 2010 In his short life, Srečko Kosovel experimented with a wide variety of styles—impressionist, symbolist, expressionist, futurist, Dadaist, and surrealist—leaving over 1,000 poems as well as prose writings, essays and vignettes totaling several hundred pages. Kosovel’s poetry has been translated into many languages. Look Back, Look Ahead is the first American edition of Kosovel’s selected poetry. “Srečko Kosovel and Rainer Maria Rilke couldn’t be more different, but they aren’t, they’re brothers. They died the same year. They worked and lived eight miles apart. One in Duino Castle, the other in Karst. ‘Come, you night- wounded man, so I can kiss your heart,’ screamed Srečko Kosovel, the greatest Slovenian poet of the twentieth century. At twenty-two, he immolated himself with the torch of his own verses. To read him is like watching Van Gogh’s last paintings, to stare at Celan’s last drops of life. And yet, he’s the threshold, the triumphal arch to this small nation’s destiny. The eternal poet of total existence.” —Tomaž Šalamun _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT THE AUTHOR Srečko Kosovel (1904-1926) was born near Trieste and was raised in the Karst, a desolate region of rockwork in Slovenia, which was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Following the outbreak of World War I, his parents sent him to school in Ljubljana, where he began to write, experimenting with a wide variety of styles—impressionist, symbolist, expressionist, futurist, Dadaist, and surrealist.
