Full textAbstract:
This is a comparative analysis between the novel The Lady of the Camellias (1848) and its theater adaptation (1852), both written by Alexandre Dumas Filho, with the version in cordel (2010), produced by Evaristo Geraldo. The story deals with the tragic relationship between the courtesan, Marguerite Gautier, and the young bourgeois, Armand Duval. The figure of the young man from a traditional family who falls in love with the sinner had already been represented by other writers, inspired by the forbidden relationships between lovers of different ancestries and social classes, such as Victor Hugo and his Marion Delorme. Set in the nineteenth-century Paris, the novel portrays a changing society, influenced by the bourgeois revolutions. Despite its modernizing ideals, the bourgeois retained old religious and moral values of the old ruling class, the aristocracy. The analysis starts from the intertextual characteristics, however, in addition to the similarities, the elements that distance the works are highlighted, to understand how the moralizing characteristics of bourgeois society were portrayed in the process of adaptation for the cordel genre.

Full textAbstract:
In this article, the notions of discourse and identity are considered within the framework of a cognitive-communicative paradigm. I argue, that the dramatic discourse of the English Restoration was a product of a society in transition from one cultural, social, and political order to another and was constructed under the oppressive influence of Charles II, who actively used the institution of theatre as an instrument of spreading new ideas and reestablishing his royal power. In this paper, I substantiate, that the male identities constructed in the dramatic discourse of the English Restoration were often inspired and created by the group of the King’s friends and courtiers, the Wits, who participated in matters of state, were actively involved in play-writing, and disseminated the main ideas of the ruling class in their literary works. In this article, I present the findings of my research on the two male identities represented in the dramatic works of the English Restoration: the identity of a libertine-aristocrat (a libertine-hero) and the identity of a libertine-fop. I also emphasize the role of the pragmatic strategy of self-presentation in identity construction and single out the tactics of its verbalization, namely, the tactic of identification, the tactic of solidarization, and the tactic of distancing. In this paper, I substantiate, that in Restoration drama libertine-heroes present themselves as womanizers, debauchees, and swearers, while libertine-fops are represented as rakes and dandies. In this article, I argue, that through the tactic of identification both libertine-heroes and libertine-fops show their loyalty to the ideas of libertinism, while through the tactic of solidarization libertine-heroes’ and libertine fops’ adherence to the new ideology, fashions and trends is demonstrated. However, the tactic of distancing is used to emphasize a libertine-hero’s superiority over a libertine-fop.

This paper argues that the British period drama Downton Abbey, which aired between 2010 and 2015 and encountered worldwide success, uses working class and middle-class female characters to promote the aristocracy and conservative ideas, while hiding behind historical accuracy and seemingly progressive patterns of behaviour. Through a close reading of four female characters, I will demonstrate how the series’ author, Julian Fellowes, uses the show to endorse his own political agenda, as a Conservative member of the House of Lords in the British Parliament.

The article provides an analysis of the contemporary British aristocracy, which promotes the monarchical principle. The aristocratic aspect, class division and social hierarchy remain important components of the modern culture of Great Britain. In addition to the traditional hereditary aristocracy, which actively participates in public life, one can also talk about the aristocracy of the middle class, which partly adopted and inherited the traditions of high society.

In one of his last published works, Vernon Louis Parrington authored the introduction to a book entitledThe Growth and Decadence of Constitutional Government. In it he endorsed the book's claim that ratification of the U.S. Constitution had been accompanied by “bitter class divisions.” In Parrington's view, the struggle for ratification was accurately described as both a political “clash between aristocracy and democracy” and an economic class struggle “between the greater landed and financial interests and the agrarian interests” of the new republic. He concurred with the author that “the two [struggles] in reality were one.” Hence, he suggested, relative to this historical context, the Constitution should be regarded as “a deliberate and well considered protective measure designed by able men who represented the aristocracy and wealth of America; a class instrument directed against the democracy.”

Full textAbstract:
Drawing from an Eliasian perspective we examine how an ‘advertising subjectivity’ became more firmly embedded within the bourgeois habitus. We explain how and why advertising slowly developed and expanded within a commercial organization despite initial opposition, ambivalence and even hostility from some of its bourgeois senior management towards the practice – the very social class sometimes identified with advertising’s origins and advance. Our empirical case is based on Arthur Guinness & Sons Ltd, the Irish company which came to be renowned for the alcohol beverage which carried its name – Guinness stout. We explain how the development of advertising was impelled by a series of processes that increasingly interlocked; a widening and intensification of competitive commercial interdependencies; a shift in the power balance between the bourgeoisie and aristocracy in favour of the former in Britain; and by a changing consumer habitus in several different nation-states. Central though, as we illustrate, was a process involving the changing power relation between various social classes in Britain – principally the increasing power chances of bourgeoisie in relation to the aristocracy – a process that had advanced considerably by the turn of the twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThis article engages with current debates about linguistic usage in a new way. It examines linguistic change, the shifts in frequency of usage of ‘aristocracy’, both qualitatively and quantitatively, at specific moments and over time, in print during the period 1700 to 1850. Digital resources are utilized to provide broad quantitative evidence not previously available to historians. The potential use and value of digitized sources is also explored in calculating the volume and frequency of keyword appearance within a broad set of genres. This article also examines qualitatively usage of ‘aristocracy’ by contemporaries and historians and concludes that historians have often used the term anachronistically. It reveals that for much of the eighteenth century ‘aristocracy’ was entirely a political term confined primarily to the educated elite but that by 1850 it had become a common social descriptor of an elite class. It also compares the trajectory of usage of ‘aristocracy’ with that of ‘democracy’ and accounts for the divergence in such usage. It is argued here that analysing the prevalence and usage of ‘aristocracy’ in contemporary contexts reveals an important narrative of linguistic changes that parallel shifts in political and social culture.

Full textAbstract:
The present study examines the social stratification in the novel of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities (1859). It shows how the novel traces the conflict between different categories of society. In so doing , the study discovers the core ideas that shape the disparity that exists between the working class and the aristocrats. In his novel A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens discusses the role of cultural domination in France and England as well as demonstrating the goals of the aristocracy. According to Marx's theory of social construction depends on class relationships and division. These relationships are explained using the two terms exploitation and appropriation. This will include the bourgeois class controlling the working class, which would mean that the mode of production and the productive forces of society would be determined by the aristocracy. The study has used a literary model in an attempt to produce a clear view of the relationship between power and the weak in this novel. Having this literary model to Dickens's novel, the findings of this study reveal how the individuals compete each other to attain social power as represented in their social structure.

Full textAbstract:
This text consists of the 'lectio praecursoria' given at the defense of my doctoral dissertation "The Good Noblemen Who Conquered the Kingdom: Islam, Historiography, and Aristocratic Legitimation in Late-Medieval Portugal". This dissertation deals with aristocratic historiography and political legitimation in late-medieval Portugal (late thirteenth and fourteenth centuries). It offers a perspective into the historical imaginary of the late-medieval Portuguese aristocracy; an imaginary that underlay the argumentation of members of this social class in defence of their traditional rights and jurisdictions against politicalcentralisation. It examines how the medieval Portuguese aristocracy utilized memories of past interactions with Islam to justify its privileged social status and defend its traditional prerogatives at a time when this social group opposed the royalist policy of political centralization. This research is included into wider debates on the role of culture — in this case, historical culture — as a resource to justify, reinforce, reproduce, and transform an existing social order.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyzes the problem of Ukraine's development since independence. A comparison of the way of organizing social reality in modern Ukraine and in the Soviet period is carried out. The main regulatory factor in the life of Soviet society was the principle of domination. Ukraine has inherited the principle of domination and retains its leading role in the current social order. Its various manifestations that determine the structure of Ukrainian society, in particular the growth of the bureaucratic class and bureaucratic pressure on all spheres and sections of life, are analyzed. The dominance of bureaucracy contains latent violence, feeds corruption and minimizes social dynamics. It is also a phenomenon of power rent, which finds its expression in a kind of "privatization of the state." Another universal effect of the principle of domination is the doubling of social reality into apparent and hidden. The apparent reality becomes a space for the existence of ordinary citizens and the implementation of legal procedures, while the hidden one contains a system of real circulation of power, which is not regulated by any legal regulations, instead, controls all movements of the social body. The systemic role in the hidden society is played by cliques — informal groups of influential people who really control the course of events. The con- sequence of the principle of domination is the passivity and marginalization of the Ukrainian citizen, associated with the defect of political participation. Such non-participation in power is embodied in such forms of consciousness as hope, liking, and despair. Today, independence is not a given, but a chance that must be realized. The way to this is through the restoration of the role of the people as a sovereign power and the development of non-dominant regulatory factors of sociality.

A film is a complex piece of mass media. Movies consist of audio and video that can affect the audience's emotions. There are various categories in film, one of which is drama series. This study uses Karl Marx's theory to describe and analyze the social class in the drama series 'Squid Game.' The research method used is semiotics, according to Roland Barthes. Karl Marx defines the concept of social class based on the integration of economic relations, occupation, and education. Based on the results of Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis that has been carried out in the drama series 'Squid Game,' it can be seen that there is a description of social class like Karl Marx's theory. Scenes and symbols in the drama series show a picture of social class based on the integration of economic relations where people with lower social status will be treated arbitrarily by those with higher social status. Film terdiri dari audio dan video yang dapat mempengaruhi emosi penonton. Ada berbagai macam kategori dalam film, salah satunya yaitu serial drama. Penelitian ini ingin memberikan gambaran dan menganalisis kelas sosial yang ada dalam serial drama ‘Squid Game’ dengan menggunakan teori milik Karl Marx. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah semiotik menurut Roland Barthes. Karl Marx mengartikan konsep kelas sosial didasarkan pada integrasi hubungan ekonomi, pekerjaan, dan pendidikan. Berdasarkan hasil analisis semiotika Roland Barthes yang telah dilakukan dalam serial drama ‘Squid Game’, dapat diketahui bahwa terdapat gambaran mengenai kelas sosial seperti teori Karl Marx. Adegan dan symbol dalam serial drama menunjukkan gambaran kelas sosial yang didasarkan pada integrasi hubungan ekonomi di mana orang-orang yang memiliki status sosial yang lebih rendah akan diperlakukan secara semena-mena oleh mereka yang memiliki status sosial lebih tinggi.

Full textAbstract:
This article centres on perceptions of ‘space’ amongst members of the Mysore royal caste from the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century. There were several perceptions of space coexisting at the time. One was based upon a traditional idea of space that prohibited the aristocracy, especially the king, from travelling beyond a certain area. Another was the imposed perception of empire, which gave Indian royals the idea that parts of their world were connected horizontally through the expansion of empire. The Mysore royals tried to embody perceptions of both spaces through restrictions on kinship and strategic matrimonial alliances beyond their territories. On the one hand, one of the royal clans insisted that they had the right to receive women from the royal house by using a Dravidian kinship language of ‘reciprocity’, which had in practice never been fully exercised between the clan and the royal house in the pre-colonial period. On the other hand, some royal caste members were keen to embody the Imperial hierarchy, in which Mysore occupied the second highest position, by establishing marriage alliances with the Rajputs in northern India. By doing so, they could re-assert their status, both in terms of Imperial hierarchy and of Kshatriyaness. The article argues that both perceptions of spaces helped a national class of Indian aristocracy to emerge, and that that class of aristocracy still influences the political culture of India in the twenty-first century.

Oleh sebab itu, golongan sosial bawah melakukan perlawanan terhadap penguasa yang dikenal dengan Gekokujo. Perlawanan yang dilakukan berdasarkan azas keadilan dan kemanusiaan yang mengedepankan bahwa manusia dalam kehidupannya harus adil, bijaksana serta menjunjung perikamunisaan. Kata kunci: Kyougen, Buaku, konflik sosial, Gekokujo AbstractDrama of Kyougen entitled “Buaku” tells about a social conflict between the high-social class (authority) and the low-social class (peasants, laborers, craftsmen, and traders) happened in Japan in the era of Muromachi (1350-1573). Sociologically, Buaku tells about a social conflict, namely an opposition between the low-social class, especially village peasants against the high-social class (Shugo Daimyo, Daikan) known as Gekokujo rebellion (superiors against inferiors). The essence of Gekokujo was that the people arose, critical, united to achieve the sense of togetherness among the low-social class especially viallage peasants against the high- social class who treated them inhumanely. This study tries to find out to what extent Buaku reflects the conflict between the high-social classand the low-social class realized in Gekokujo. The approach used as the grand theory in the study was the sociological approach with the analytical-descriptive method and hermeneutic. Data were collected through the library studies and translation. The technique analysis used the critical discourse. The result shows that Buaku isfull of the reflection of the opposition ofthe low-social class (peasants and employees) against the high-social class (masters or employers) in the era of Muromachi. The low-social class in the era Muromachi are in position of society that is under pressure on his life. So that his life is full of suffering. Therefore, the low-social class figting against the ruler know as Gekokujo. The resistance is based on the principle of justice and humanity. Human beings must be just and uphold humanity.

Full textAbstract:
Ouida’s Under Two Flags (1867) is not a widely read Victorian novel today, but it is offers important insight into the philosophical concerns of a novelist who was hugely popular in her time. In Under Two Flags, Ouida explores what she saw as the epistemological problem developing in the nineteenth century, a nihilistic view that promoted scepticism, aestheticism, and idleness, which is a perspective she believed was responsible for the demise of the aristocracy. Wishing to restore the power and position of the aristocracy, Ouida sends her protagonist Bertie Cecil, a dandy who embodies the aestheticism and ennui of the upper class, to the French Foreign Legion in order to make an important social and psychological point. Ouida draws upon the legend that the French Foreign Legion rehabilitated its wayward recruits to present a society in which something is demanded of Bertie and where he rises to that demand. Symbolically speaking, Bertie regains his inheritance and his title in the novel only after a radical transformation that restores him, and by implication the aristocracy, to a foundational moral and chivalrous code.

Full textAbstract:
Britain’s self-made man was defined by taste, money, influence, and most importantly, middle-class rank in the early decades of the Industrial Revolution. During the mid-1700s, a change began to take place between the social classes, stripping the aristocracy of their role as Britain’s foremost connoisseurs and trendsetters. The shift from aristocratic indulgences to those of the newly wealthy middle class stemmed from a number of factors. For one, the economy was changing during the 18th-century. An industrial environment, which often included factories and workers, was the new-found key to the financial success of self-made men. As David Kutcha explains, “late eighteenth and early nineteenth-century English aristocrats lost control of the meanings of consumption, as political, economic, and clothing reformers succeeded in portraying aristocratic men as prodigal parasites living off of a virtuous and industrious nation” (135). To prove that the individuals in England’s highest social class were unworthy of their role as connoisseurs of taste, middle-class reformers attacked the aristocracy, declaring that the upper classes were unworthy of their status and were living off the successes provided by industry and self-made men.Portraiture created in Britain during the 18th- and 19th-centuries, particularly paintings by William Hogarth (1697-1764) and Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788), exemplifies the myth of the self-made man, as well as the shift in social class dominance. Moreover, portraiture emphasizes the middle-class’s adoption of aristocratic visual language, while in turn depicting men as wealthy industrials who benefit the national economy and define the manly character of England. Although middle-class reformers were determined to prove that the titled class was effeminate and parasitic, it was the aristocratic ideal of masculinity that the middling ranks adopted as their own. English artists Hogarth and Gainsborough were influential in addressing the tension produced by the shifting social lines of the Industrial Revolution. Bound to Britain’s wealth for their own survival, both Hogarth and Gainsborough sought the patronage of the rising middle-class while sustaining their own notions of the self-made myth.

This study examined social class oppression in Ally Condie’s Crossed novel as the object of the research. This research applied Tyson’s social class and Young’s types of oppression theory. This research used qualitative research as a method and used a Marxist approach to conduct research. This research showed five indicators of social class: Aristocracy is portrayed as an Institution that has unlimited jobs and financial security. The upper class is the people in Tana provinces who are economically privileged which is they had small facilities for production. The middle class referred to the Officer, they worked with Institutions to oppress the lower class. The types of lower class refer to Ky, Vick, and Eli they were in dirty and disheveled clothes. Underclass refers to the Anomalies, they are alienated from society. This research also showed the third type of oppression; Exploitation was the Officers, and who get oppressed in this novel is the Aberration. In Marginalization, types of society that marginalize the Anomalies. In Powerlessness the oppressor is the Institution, and those who get oppressed are the Aberration, Anomaly, and the decoy. The existence of oppression was caused by social class and portrayed implicitly in society.

Full textAbstract:
A systematic sample of the petitions presented to the English Divorce Court from 1858 through 1908 makes it possible to assess the differential contribution of discrete social and economic subgroups to the litigation the Court oversaw. An examination of four of these—the titled aristocracy, those employed in the theater, those in receipt of financial aid, and laborers—shows that English divorce litigants exhibited a broader social profile than commonly attributed to it by the newspaper coverage of divorce litigation, which gave a skewed impression of its social profile. Analysis of these cases underscores the gendered, class, and geographically inflected demand for divorce in a judicial setting that imposed severe restrictions on access to divorce as a remedy for marital breakdown.

Theodosian Code), was published, which is a valuable source on the social history of the Roman state in Late Antiquity. Based on the data of the Codex Theodosianus and Novellae of Emperors, the author of the article reconstructs the most important components of the social status of Roman senators of the fourth century BC. It is revealed that in the view of the emperor and the compilers of the Theodosian Code, the senatorial aristocracy was thought of as the highest class of the Roman Empire. Several factors influenced the status of Roman senators. Following a “suitable” way of life and proper performance of political functions determined the position of the senator in society and formed his reputation not only in the eyes of the emperor, but also in the eyes of his community, as well as other classes. The way a person got into the ranks of the senatorial aristocracy also affected the status. So, it was not so much the origin that was important, but the observance of legality in obtaining titles, and, in the case of decurions, the legitimacy of the transition from one estate to another. Finally, the possession of the patrimony and ensuring its proper functioning guaranteed the full and timely payment of taxes by the senators, and in the eyes of the ruler was important for maintaining the high status of the senatorial aristocracy. Unlike legislation, reality was more complex. Thus, the social status was influenced by a much larger number of components (for example, the acceptance or rejection of a Roman aristocrat by the city plebs), moreover, the proper fulfillment by the senator of all the requirements put forward by the imperial power did not always lead him to success in political activity.

The article is devoted to the representative system, which was one of the elements of the social and political thought of the Russian philosopher Boris Chicherin, who worked in the second half of the nineteenth century. The author analyzes the structure of national representation and the factors which – according to Boris Chicherin – weakened or strengthened the system. In this article, the author emphasizes the role of different factors: social groups (aristocracy, middle class), political liberty and property, that were important for the formation of representative institutions. The analysis of the representative system would not be possible without presenting the basic outline of the conservative-liberal philosophy of the Russian thinker.

Full textAbstract:
This study is a spatial analysis of The Great Gatsby (1925). This novel presents the power game among various white classes in American society in the context of the Roaring Twenties, with obvious spatial characteristics. The geographical distribution between East Egg, West Egg, and the Valley of Ashes presents the high-and-low-class distinction of different classes in social space. The upper classes practice class oppression and exploitation through space, while the lower classes also use space to resist oppression and climb the class ladder. This paper draws on French philosopher Henri Lefebvre’s spatial ideas, especially the spatial triad, to explore the close connection between space and class in the novel. The Great Gatsby encompasses various class groups in white society, including the hereditary aristocracy like the Buchanans, the new money represented by Gatsby, and the lower class represented by the Wilsons. To modify the spatial order, different classes use space as a medium to preserve their class identity and seek their social presence, which reproduces the illusion of the American Dream of the Jazz Age and reveals Fitzgerald’s humanistic concern for people in spatial relations.

Full textAbstract:
Throughout many years Berdyaev discusses the problem of spiritual aristocracy formation in Russia. The Russian philosopher defends an imperishable value of spiritual aristocracy, as he doesn’t see a direct connection between the socio-historical environment and the emergence of “knights of spirit”. In his works he underlines the priority of the universal objective Divine will, calls for renewing Christianity and all aspects of public life, connects religious revival only with the development of a person. Berdyaev believes that the ‘people-nation’ can be aristocratic if it is ready to subordinate their own actions to the absolute Divine will. In 1917-1918 the idea of a hierarchical structure of any reality defines a train of Berdyaev’s thought. The being of the free person is closely connected with cosmic hierarchy. Creativity and social equality are not compatible, creativity demands inequality; the nature of creativity and the essence of the person are aristocratic. The Russian thinker welcomes the overthrow of autocracy. He denies class foundation of the ongoing revolution, exposes bourgeois, non-creative base of the socialist idea. Berdyaev sees the cause of ‘the sacred realm’ downfall in the estrangement of Russian people from the state power, absence of spiritual aristocracy in Russia. He accounts for the victory of democracy as an external condition of spiritual knighthood’s making, whose thoughts are directed outside of the empirical world, a necessity and compulsion realm. The Russian philosopher hopes that the democratic revolution will release spiritual forces of the people, whose ascending creative movement will be accompanied by the formation of national spiritual aristocracy. But in July 1917 Berdyaev ascertains that Russia is sacrificed to revolutionary element. He considers the propensity of the Russian person to social utopias as a consequence of centuries-old slavish existence of the people, the absence of the sense of duty and responsibility in the Russian national character. The victory of Bolsheviks in race for power by autumn of 1917 has confirmed Berdyaev’s worst fears: the triumph in Russia of a bourgeois ideal of prosperous habitation in the material world, ideals of equality and justice over a hierarchical principle of the universe design acted as a characteristic symptom of Russian people’s degradation, transformed the project of national aristocracy of spirit into a utopia. The article also shows how the adherents of Marxist ideology have turned this project into a caricature on the philosophy of history.

Currently, a major issue faced by Marketing learners in China is how to enhance their competence in improving customer satisfaction. Solving this problem will help them effectively meet market demands once they enter the workforce after graduation. This study investigated the impact of drama experience on the competence in improving customer satisfaction of Chinese Marketing learners and the mediating role of self-efficacy. Recently, research on drama education has increasingly explored its impact on college student’s social skills, with drama even becoming a powerful tool for interdisciplinary teaching. However, there is limited research on the effect of drama on Marketing learners. Therefore, this study aims to explore the impact of drama from the perspective of the Marketing discipline. A quantitative research method was employed over four months. The researcher distributed three surveys to Marketing learners at one Chinese university to collect their perspectives on their drama experience, self-efficacy, and improving customer satisfaction competence. The results of the data analysis indicated that drama experience significantly affects the competence in improving customer satisfaction of Marketing learners, with self-efficacy also playing a mediating role. This study shows that both in-class and out-of-class drama experience positively influence Marketing learners’ ability to manage customer relationships, further highlighting the importance of drama in university education.

Full textAbstract:
In the late 1950s and the 1960s, an Egyptian welfare state was developed to provide the economic basis of a new social contract between the Nasser regime and its key class allies. Its main beneficiaries were the men and women of both the middle class and the labor aristocracy, who were to staff and run its expanding state sector. For Egyptian women, who were scorned by the pre-1952 states, the new welfare state offered explicit commitment to public equality for women. It contributed to the development of state feminism as a legal, economic, and ideological strategy to introduce changes to Egyptian society and its gender relations. In its own turn, state feminism contributed to the political legitimacy of Gamal Abdel Nasser's regime and its progressive credentials.

Full textAbstract:
This paper analyzes fantasy school dramas among the original Korean OTT dramas in the 2020s that deal with adolescents' entrance exams, competition, survival, and struggles. Exploring the “youth meritocracy” in these dramas. Originally, the meritocracy was considered the opposite of aristocracy, affirming that intelligence and hard work are the forces that create class mobility. However, over time, it has transformed into a meritocracy based on education and exams. Especially in Korea, it reinforces the obsession with prestigious universities and eventually becomes a way to justify endless competition and winner-takes-all thinking. However, in fantasy school dramas, young people don't just accept the distorted meritocracy as it is; they shape their own lives by exhibiting a variety of attitudes toward the meritocracy in schools which have become battlegrounds for life and death. Chapter 2 examines "High Cookie" a film about high school seniors at a prestigious school who are willing to use drugs to get to the top of the class, while Chapter 3 analyzes "After-School War Activities" a film about high school students who join the military as student soldiers to earn extra credit for the SAT and their unstable inner lives. Chapter 4 examines "All of Are Dead" explores the implications of teenagers choosing cooperation and solidarity over competition, albeit temporarily, in a zombie apocalypse. Chapter 5 focuses on the drama "Superior Shaman Gadusim" to examine the self-affirmation of adolescents who voluntarily sacrifice themselves to save their friends. In doing so, I argue that these dramas expose the absurdity of Korean society and youth meritocracy, but also reveal that they talk about the values that we need to recover beyond meritocracy, such as self-affirmation, friendship and love, cooperation and solidarity.

This paper takes Friedrich Engels 200th birthday on 28 November 2020 as occasion to ask: How relevant are Friedrich Engels’s works in the age of digital capitalism? It shows that Engels class-struggle oriented theory can and should inform 21st century social science and digital social research.
Based on a reading of Engels’s works, the article discusses how to think of scientific socialism as critical social science today, presents a critique of computational social science as digital positivism, engages with foundations of digital labour analysis, the analysis of the international division of digital labour, updates Engels’s Condition of the Working Class in England in the age of digital capitalism, analyses the role of trade unions and digital class struggles in digital age, analyses the social murder of workers in the COVID-19 crisis, engages with platform co-operatives, digital commons projects and public service Internet platforms are concrete digital utopias that point beyond digital capital(ism). Engels’s analysis is updated for critically analysing the digital conditions of the working class today, including the digital labour of hardware assemblers at Foxconn and Pegatron, the digital labour aristocracy of software engineers at Google, online freelance workers, platform workers at capitalist platform corporations such as Uber, Deliveroo, Fiverr, Upwork, or Freelancer, and the digital labour of Facebook users. Engels’s 200th birthday reminds us of the class character of digital capitalism and that we need critical digital social science as a new form of scientific socialism.

Full textAbstract:
This paper discusses the depiction of madwomen in a range of early modern English plays including some by Shakespeare in order to show how their madness operates at the intersection of gender, genre, and social class. Its particular focus is on language, and it argues that the speech styles of madwomen are essentially similar whatever their social class. For women, madness is a linguistically liberating condition, bringing together high and low cultural discourses. While stage madwomen’s language has similarities with that of madmen, it is more licentious and transgressive because the violation of social and behavioural norms is more extreme.

Full textAbstract:
This article is focused on the 2017 BBC drama, The Moorside. Over two episodes, it revisits the events surrounding the ‘disappearance’ of Shannon Matthews, a nine-year-old schoolgirl from Dewsbury in West Yorkshire, with the drama culminating in the arrest of Shannon's mother, Karen, on charges of child neglect and perverting the course of justice. We identify the events depicted in The Moorside and, in particular, the media's framing of them, as central to the formation of pervasive and corrosive narratives of ‘broken Britain’. In revisiting the Matthews case, The Moorside re-animates and, we argue here, further perpetuates these discourses by rendering them through highly constructed and reductive frameworks of class, place, gender and race. Our analysis considers the textual strategies at work in the drama, some of its key intertexts, questions of diversity – in class terms – within the BBC, and the role of Sheridan Smith, The Moorside's ‘star’, as a conduit for narratives of regional and social identity.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents aspects of a drama based six months’ project with refugee children during their first period of schooling in Greece. The project aimed to investigate whether drama sessions could facilitate second language learning, strengthen children’s participation in classroom communication and enhance interaction among pupils and teachers with few shared language resources in an attempt to provide them with positive experiences. Drama strategies were used to provide a joyful and welcoming environment and boost children’s communication skills. In most cases, drawing and painting, music and art were also used to support the drama activities. According to the research results, the children made use of various linguistic and non-linguistic resources (mother tongue, English, Greek, gestures, facial expressions, body movements, eye contact etc.) for interaction and self-expression and they developed positive feelings towards their classmates, their tutors and schooling. The language, which was produced through drama, was employed within a social context and was appropriate to the specific participants, setting and topic. Thus, the students were engaged in purposeful and meaningful communication. The findings from this case study highlight the beneficial effect of drama pedagogy on refugee children’s second language learning and on their socialization in the school environment.

Abstract:Because of their status ofres nullius—owned by no one—property theory is underdeveloped in regard to wildlife. In this article, wildlife is seen to be sometimes subject to a shadow ownership by class interests in society. Hunters accuse protected wolves of being the “pets” or “property” of an urban-based conservationist middle class. This phenomenon fragments the common fauna and undermines responsibility taking and policy compliance for wildlife that is seen as being owned by an oppositional social class. Using an empirical case study of Swedish hunters, we show how responsibility for wildlife has become entangled with property rights. A historical materialist analysis reveals that hunters once experienced ownership of wildlife by the nobility as co-opting state coercive power. Today, however, aristocracy is replaced by a new elite class of conservationists. Noting the hunters’ tendency to evoke quasi-aristocratic virtues of ownership, we advance recommendations for an alternative approach. We appeal to deliberative democracy to promote the “communing” of wildlife across classes in fora that withstand co-optation by class interests.

This study used questionnaires and interviews to discover senior secondary students’ perceptions of their drama class experiences in three different schools from an Ontario public board of education. Questionnaire results from entire classes supported interview results from four students in each class. No notable differences in student perceptions emerged, either between boys and girls, or among the three schools. Findings uncovered student attitudes about scholastic motivation, retention, and success that might be applicable across subject areas. For example, they enjoyed opportunities for physical mobility, peer interaction, and self-expression. They praised authentic, challenging, and relevant learning tasks that culminated in displays for audiences beyond their own classrooms. More than subject content, students valued drama class as a vehicle for enduring personal and social growth.

Один из крупных очагов черкесской (адыгской) культуры в Турции - анклав Узун-Яйла - находится в Центральной Анатолии, близ г. Кайсери. Его население составляют в основном представители аристократических этнических групп: кабардинцы, хатукайцы, а также абазины, идентифицирующие себя как адыгэ (черкесы) и исторически относящиеся к числу сообществ с развитой социально-классовой структурой. Стереотипные устные тексты, структурирующие социально-классовую идентичность, имеют широкий жанровый спектр: от «классического» фольклора до «разовых» высказываний. Их социально-прагматическая функция претерпела трансформации, продиктованные кризисом внутренних социальных связей, разрушением традиционной сельской общины, урбанизационными процессами. В настоящее время сословная идентичность узун-яйлинцев структурируется неявными формами презентации. При этом мы можем наблюдать два параллельных топика этого дискурса: а) потомственная аристократия vs парвеню; б) благородство по крови vs «новое благородство». Цель нашего исследования - обратить внимание на фольклорно-языковой аспект функционирования дискурса о благородстве, выявить социально-прагматические функции исследуемых текстов. Полевые материалы собраны автором в течение 2009-2019 гг., вводятся в научный оборот впервые. Исследование актуально в свете дальнейших разработок в области локалистики и регионоведения. One of the large centers of the Circassian (Adyghe) culture of Turkey, the Uzunyayla enclave, is located in Central Anatolia near the city of Kayseri. Its population consists mainly of representatives of aristocratic groups: Kabardians, Khatukays, as well as Abazins, who identify themselves as Adyge (Circassians). These historically belong to those communities with a well-developed social-class structure. The stereotypical oral texts that structure social class identity display a wide spectrum of genres: from “classical” folklore to one-time utterances. The sociopragmatic function of these texts has undergone transformations dictated by changes in internal social ties, the destruction of the traditional rural community, and the process of urbanization. Nowadays the social class or estate identity of Uzunyayla residents is structured by the implicit and indirect forms of representation. We may observe two parallel themes in their discourse: a) the contrast between the hereditary aristocrat and the parvenu; and b), between “blood nobility” and “new nobility.” The aim of our research is to draw attention to the folkloric and linguistic aspects of the discourse on nobility and to identify the sociopragmatic functions of the texts studied. Field materials collected by the author during 2009-2019 are introduced into scholarly circulation for the first time. They are particularly relevant for further development of the field of local and regional studies.

Full textAbstract:
This article focuses on the BBC1 three-part drama Three Girls, broadcast in July 2017, which dramatised the Rochdale child sex-grooming gang scandal of 2011 and won five BAFTAs in 2018. While many of the dominant press narratives focused on the ethnicity of the perpetrators, few accounts of the scandal spoke to the need for a sustained public discussion of the class location of the victims. This article considers how the process of recognising the social problem of sex-grooming is set up for the audience through a particular mode of address. In many ways the drama rendered visible the structural conditions that provided the context for this abuse by drawing on the expanded repertoires of television social realism: the representation of the town as abuser; the championing of heroic working-class women; and the power of working-class vernacular. However, ultimately, the narrative marginalises the type of girl most likely to be the victim of this form of sexual abuse. By focusing on the recognisable journey of the girl ‘who can be saved’ this renders the impoverished girl as already constitutive of the social problem. The analysis draws attention to the difficulties of recognising alternative classed subjectivities on television because of the way that boundary-markers are placed between the working class and the poor and suggests that the consequence of these representations is to reify ideas about the victims of poverty and exploitation.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents some remarks concerning social stratification of the inhabitants of the forest-steppe areas of the left-bank Dnieperland between the 2nd half of the 6th and 4th/3rd century BC. The main aim of the article was to propose a new interpretation of the status of deceased buried in various grave complexes of this cultural phenomenon. The process of identifying groups occupying different positions in hierarchy was multi-level. One of the first things considered in the analysis was the context of graves of individuals belonging to subsequent clusters. The next stage of the study involved an attempt to recognize social classes and groups known from written sources and / or described for other societies of similar (Scythian) cultural model among previously distinguished clusters of grave complexes. It was established that the highest place in social hierarchy of the analysed communities was occupied by the individuals of the higher classes. This social class was not homogeneous; thus, we could divide it into at least few smaller subgroups. The richest and the most elaborate graves belong to local leaders of groups of various sizes (e. g. individual tribes or their federations) of diverse statuses. Slightly lower position was attributed to the forest-steppe aristocracy of the middle rank. This social stratum included of members of the (ancestral and / or tribal) aristocracy, leaders of small groups (clans) of the forest-steppe elites of the lowest rank, as well as the so-called «elite troopers». At the bottom of the social hierarchy of the forest-steppe elites was aristocracy of the lowest rank — the most diverse group belonging to the higher classes. It seems that leaders of smaller groups utilizing specific cemeteries / kurgan groups might have had similar social status. Yet, formally speaking, the latter social stratum most likely already belonged to the middle classes. The so-called «ordinary people», or simply common folk, constituted the majority of the analysed communities. This large social class could be divided into two main groups — wealthy individuals of slightly higher social status among the middle class, and the remaining «ordinary people». The lowest place in the presented hierarchy of nominally free members of the studied populations was taken by not so numerous representatives of «the poor». The list of social classes and groups distinguished within the analyzed society is completed by people with more or less limited rights, who were socially dependent on the members of higher classes (servants or enslaved domestic workers). The interpretation of the system of social stratification presented in the study was supplemented by the analysis of differences in the number of grave complexes assigned to a specific place in hierarchy. The obtained results raise the question of the level of representativeness of the social structure of the populations of the forest-steppe areas of the left-bank Dnieperland described in the study. First and foremost, in the analysed set there is an extremely high percentage of grave complexes assigned to the higher classes. The article offers fer possible explanations of this phenomena, including the theory that the unusually high percentage of grave complexes linked to the more privileged groups was a consequence of a vast underestimation of the number of burials of the individuals occupying lower positions in hierarchy. It seems that the disrupted proportions between burials belonging to the higher and the lower classes may have resulted from various factors, including the source database itself. We should keep in mind that most of the grave complexes that had to be excluded from the statistical analysis have features characteristic for burials of the individuals of middle and lower social status.

By the end of the eighteenth century, England witnessed a great event, that is, the French revolution, but what is more important is the British revolution which was the revolution of ideas. The Victorian age is an age of ideas, strictness, developments, depression, aristocracy, doubt, taboo, morals, and many other conventions. These changes are detected in great literary activities, discoveries in science, history, religion, politics, customs, and many other fields. Between the 30's and the 40s, many voices were heard through different kinds of art, showing the bad conditions of the working class. The major figure of the Victorian age is Oscar Wilde (1854 – 1900). He is the first to introduce problem plays, which deal with the problems of the age. His social comedies were not to solve social problems but to deliver his ideas about the vanity of his age.

Full textAbstract:
This essay proposes that humorists Robert Benchley and Dorothy Parker cast the middlebrow professional as a modern performer in their drama reviews and fiction. Under the sign of sophistication, their work champions individual identity and social status based on professionalism, public performance, and wit. The article traces sophistication as an ideal on the Broadway stage of the 1920s and 1930s, analyzes the skeptical personae that Benchley and Barker create in their drama reviews for middlebrow magazines, and follows the trope of performance (monologue, song, stage) in fiction by Benchley and Parker. In their drama reviews, Benchley and Parker reclaim the tonal extremes of modernist drama for the alienated middle-class professional, and they insist that even artistic avant-gardes derive their techniques from low-cultural spectacle and mass media people-pleasing. In so doing, they encouraged their readers to view themselves as consumers and producers of modern performances. In their fiction, Benchley and Parker use the roles of the beleaguered businessman and the world-weary divorcée to advocate social mobility, professional independence, and hedonistic choice over self-abnegating duty.

This article describes details of inclusion of students with severe disabilities using an extended example of one high school drama class. Based on research conducted in eight schools by a team of four researchers, the article describes three inclusion outcomes for both disabled and nondisabled students (curriculum infusion, social inclusion, and learning inclusion). It then describes how the drama teacher and the special education teacher provided teaching support, prosthetic support, and interpretive support to one disabled student by developing both collaborative and consultive relationships with each other.
