  • Conceptual Sphere of Modern Cinema (A Study of Headline Complexes of 21St - Century European and Asian Movies)
    DOI: 10.308161ICONN412017166 Conceptual sphere of modern cinema (a study of headline complexes of 21st - century European and Asian movies) Elena Gudeleva, Ekaterina Sudarkina Vladimir State University, Russia Abstract: This article aims to reveal the conceptual sphere of modern cinema dis- course in Europe and Asia by analyzing movie headline complexes. More than two thousand original movie titles and slogans of 21st-century films presented at the largest festivals are studied. The main concepts man( , opposition, love, house and nature) are pointed out and explained. In addition to the detailed theoretical commentary, the paper shows how the cinema headline complex con- centrates intertextual and non-textual associations, and carries information about authors’ intentions and tastes of moviegoers who are the target audience for the interpreter. Keywords: headline complex, concept, cinema discourse, translation, linguocul- tural analysis Introduction The headline complex (all the elements of the frame text grouped around a work’s title)1 takes on such functions as nominative, evaluative and expressive, infor- mative, and advertising. It is aimed at helping people navigate in a large stream of data in a more flexible manner. The linguistic base in cinematography is a relatively new and regularly expanded section of onomastics. In Western science cinematographic names and other non-textual elements are studied within the terminological framework of the paratext theory formulated in the 1980s by Gerard Genette and several other research- ers (Robert Stam; Nicole Janin-Foucher) and also within the framing theory suggested by Erving Goffman Frame( Analysis, 1974) and Werner Wolf with the contributors to his anthology (2006), who have tried to apply it to media.

  • Third Quarterly Report 2007-2008 2
    (Incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability) Third Quarterly Report GEM Stock Code : 8078 2007-2008 CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GROWTH ENTERPRISE MARKET (“GEM”) OF THE STOCK EXCHANGE OF HONG KONG LIMITED (THE “STOCK EXCHANGE”) GEM has been established as a market designed to accommodate companies to which a high investment risk may be attached. In particular, companies may list on GEM with neither a track record of profitability nor any obligation to forecast future profitability. Furthermore, there may be risks arising out of the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM and the business sectors or countries in which the companies operate. Prospective investors should be aware of the potential risks of investing in such companies and should make the decision to invest only after due and careful consideration. The greater risk profile and other characteristics of GEM mean that it is a market more suited to professional and other sophisticated investors. Given the emerging nature of companies listed on GEM, there is a risk that securities traded on GEM may be more susceptible to high market volatility than securities traded on the Main Board and no assurance is given that there will be a liquid market in the securities traded on GEM. The principal means of information dissemination on GEM is publication on the internet website operated by the Stock Exchange. Listed companies are not generally required to issue paid announcements in gazetted newspapers. Accordingly, prospective investors should note that they need to have access to the GEM website in order to obtain up-to-date information on GEM-listed issuers.

    “The Law of Large Numbers” by Emma Pollock The Law of Large Numbers Emma Pollock returns to Chemikal Underground with The Law of Large Numbers, her second solo outing, and if her ‘repatriation’ to the label she helped to create represents a return to more familiar territory, then the same could also be said for the album itself. The follow-up to 2007’s 4AD-released Watch the Fireworks, Emma’s second solo effort eschews the traditional, accessibly melodic approach of her debut for a more angular musical terrain: The Law of Large Numbers is crammed with unconventional arrangements and by Emma’s own admission, was an almost entirely self-serving project. So if returning to Chemikal Underground and the creative alliances that fuelled The Delgados has restored Emma’s conviction to pursue her own instincts, then we should all be extremely grateful as her new album is a complex, intelligent and hugely compelling piece of work. Recorded throughout 2009 in Chem19 with husband and ex-Delgado Paul Savage producing, The Law of Large Numbers was always going to be a very different prospect. Armed with an open remit and a preparedness to let this album dictate its own course, The Law of Large Numbers arrives with taut, sparse production, hints of Dixieland jazz, abrasive pop songs; programmed drums and improvised vocal loops – in short, and in the words of Emma herself, “The truest representation of me as an individual - whatever that means.” “I feel like I‟m beginning to understand the difference between being a solo artist and being in a band, making music for my own gratification first and foremost.

The year 2007 was full of many changes in Guam’s visitor industry. Local and off-island interests began a series of investments and acquisitions changing the ownership and the physical attributes of hotel properties along both Tumon Bay and Hagatna Bay. By all accounts, this renewed interest in investing in Guam’s number one industry will continue well into 2008! As the year went by, businesses were constantly tweaking their marketing plans to keep pace with market conditions impacted by rising fuel costs, fluctuations in the exchange rates, and the surge in competition by both Japanese and Korean domestic destinations. It is expected that these condi- tions will not change for the first three quarters of 2008. For the first time in many years, the Guam Visitors Bureau recognized the importance in developing a strategic vision to guide the industry’s growth.

Thanks to the untiring effort of our English teachers in promoting writing, Oasis has become a culture in Pui Ching. Many students have developed the readiness to write. They are willing to write and they take pride in sharing their work with others. Some have taken contribution to Oasis as an important annual event. As the principal of Pui Ching, there is nothing happier and more encouraging than to see students love writing and to see life and creativity in their work. Time passes and the year goes. When a student no longer walks up and down the steps, what refreshes his youthful reminiscence may be the inspiration that has been planted in this student classic. Students, why hesitate? Open your minds to the world around you, be aware, read, be inspired and write.
