Publication of this journal is truly a hallmark event in the history of our university. As the intellectual mirror, such journal reflects a great deal of individual as well as collective wisdom, sagacity and knowledge. I am certain that BUP JOURNAL shall also bear similar essence and unfold vistas of new ideas and knowledge before our readers. When I visit other organizations and attend various programme, I am often asked about the state and standard of BUP. My responses have been emphatically optimistic, because we are determined to make BUP's future brighter. Our highly dedicated faculties and staffs, motivated students and positional advantages are all set to ensure that lofty goal. Our recent events and achievements have generated much hopes and zeal to push BUP to greater heights. We shall harness this renewed vigour to advance BUP's leadership role in tertiary education. We plan to turn our university into a seat of superb higher learning, outstanding co and extra curricula activities and ground-breaking researches, braving all shortcomings and challenges as a new university. We are happy to reveal that soon our campus, with modern class rooms, auditorium, offices, library and labs would be completed. We are hiring more capable faculties and staffs for imparting and supporting learning and teaching. Digitization of the university has already been done successfully. Indeed, we are continuously seeking ways and means to ensure our students' university education and their BUP experiences more rewarding and fulfilling. Finally, I take this opportunity to congratulate and commend the Editorial Board, all contributors/authors, reviewers and all others involved in the process of the publication of this journal. On the whole, I express my profound satisfaction and exhilaration on this momentous occasion. Wish you all happy reading! Major General Abul Kalam Md Humayun Kabir, ndu, psc Vice Chancellor Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) iii Editor's Note I feel immense pleasure to see the BUP JOURNAL finally coming to light. It has been a long, but worth-the-time venture. The BUP JOURNAL is dedicated to ensure high standards of quality. We, at the editorial board, had a pleasant surprise at the enthusiastic response from the authors, both home and abroad. We received a large number of scholarly research articles, all of which were sent to renowned resource persons both at home and abroad for reviews. And, after a rigorous selection process, the first issue of the BUP JOURNAL came out with ten research oriented scholarly articles. I believe the articles would suit the ''Excellence Through Knowledge'' motto of the University, as well as meet the international standard. Due to being this Journal is of a multidimensional nature, we have had to accommodate articles on various field of studies and disciplines like management and business, linguistics and literature, economics, environment, engineering, medical science etc. Because of various reasons, for the time being the journal is conceived in the way it is, but with time, it will be developed further, and will be divided into different disciplines, with more articles coming in, and expression of wider interest in the journal. Mentionable that, no uniform documentation system was followed in the first issue, rather the articles followed technical standard of references, which is methodical and conforms to accepted standard of professional Journals. However, the authors are requested to prepare manuscripts according to the latest MLA Style Manual, which will be applicable from the second issue. Authors are requested to follow the instructions given at page no. v under title "A Guide to Preparing Manuscripts for BUP JOURNAL (ISSN: 2219-4851)." Notable that the members of the editorial board and the assessors have employed much toil in assessing the articles referred to them and each of the articles that have been finally selected for publication has had to undergo a strict assessment process. I would like to convey my special thanks to the learned members of the Editorial Board who have made their valuable comments to standardize the articles and enrich the journal. I also express my heartfelt gratitude to all the reviewers, without whose meticulous and invaluable cooperation the BUP JOURNAL would not be a success. I am greatly indebted to the Editor-in-Chief and Vice Chancellor of BUP Major General Abul Kalam Md Humayun Kabir, ndu, psc for his immense support and guidance throughout the whole process. We shall welcome any kind of comments or suggestions which may contribute to improve the quality of BUP JOURNAL. Colonel Md.

  • And Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960S
    Christine Zumello The “Everything Card” and Consumer Credit in the United States in the 1960s First National City Bank (FNCB) of New York launched the Everything Card in the summer of 1967. A latecomer in the fi eld of credit cards, FNCB nonetheless correctly recognized a promising business model for retail banking. FNCB attempted not only to ride the wave of mass consumption but also to cap- italize on the profi t-generating potential of buying on credit. Although the venture soon failed, brought down by the losses that plagued the bank due to fraud, consumer discontent, and legislative action, this fi nal attempt by a major single commer- cial bank to launch its own plan did not signify the end of credit cards. On the contrary, the Everything Card was a har- binger of the era of the universal credit card. irst National City Bank (FNCB) of New York (now Citigroup), one F of the oldest leading commercial banks in the United States, intro- duced the Everything Card in the summer of 1967.1 FNCB was a pioneer in fostering consumer fi nance in the United States. The bank saw an opportunity to increase business by creating an innovative system that would enable masses of consumers to purchase a variety of goods and services on credit. By becoming the principal tool of consumer credit, credit cards revolutionized the banking business. Indeed, “where it couldn’t gain territory with bricks and mortar, Citibank tried to do so 2 with plastic.” The author wishes to express her gratitude to Lois Kauffman of the Citigroup Archives, Citi’s Center for Heritage and Strategy, New York City.

  • One Book's Brand Is Another Book's Frame
    One Book’s Brand is Another Book’s Frame Covering the Dutch Cover of Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s La sombra del viento Maarten Steenmeijer Abstract Book covers can be an important part of the branding process in the case of authors from abroad. The branding of Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s novels in the Netherlands is a paradigmatic case in point. The front cover of his Dutch debut De schaduw van de wind became a classic: it is a crucial element of the Dutch Zafón brand, while essential features from it have been used to frame a considerable number of other Spanish authors’ novels that have since been launched onto the Dutch market. We examine three cases: Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Elia Barceló, and María Dueñas. Emulating successful cover branding seems to have the best chance of succeeding in the case of ‘new’ authors and appears to be most effective in the short term. Keywords: branding, translations, covers, hetero-representation Carlos Ruiz Zafón’s novel La sombra del viento is every publisher’s dream. Worldwide, it has sold more copies than any other Spanish novel, the only exception being, of course, Cervantes’ Don Quixote. Germany was the first foreign country where Ruiz Zafón’s novel was published (in the summer of 2003). Other countries soon followed and zafonmanía became a global phe- nomenon. To provide an idea of zafonmanía’s key features, it is relevant to cite the blurb from the US cover: ‘The number one bestseller.’ This is, evidently, Helleke van den Braber, Jeroen Dera, Jos Joosten, and Maarten Steenmeijer (eds), Branding Books Across the Ages: Strategies and Key Concepts in Literary Branding.

  • Losingsightliterature.Pdf (126.6Kb)
    Manno 1 Lindsey Manno Capstone Final Professor Cohen Losing Sight of Literature: The Commodity of Book Packaging In every young writer’s heart there is a dream, a dream that one day all of their hard work will lead to a successful, published novel. And not just any novel, but the next Great American novel that will be taught in classes for decades to come. Unfortunately, much of the publishing industry has another goal in mind when weeding through submissions and story ideas: making money and duplicating the success of Harry Potter or Twilight . In this paper, I plan to examine the workings of companies like Alloy Entertainment and James Frey’s Full Fathom Five Factory, each of which provide outlines and hire writers to put together novels for the Young Adult (YA hereafter) genre. By using a “novel by committee” format, these companies are weakening the publishing industry and making it that much more difficult for an up and coming writer to get their original work seen, much less published. They are doing away with what is considered to be the author and replacing it with brand names and product placement, changing the ideals of what it is to be a writer. In this essay, I will question whether or not these precooked ideas can still be considered art with any literary value, or if they’re simply commodities to companies consumed with the desire for money rather than the desire to share good books. First, though, it is important to determine what it is that allows something to be considered literature or to have literary value.
