Abstract:
Coisas estranhas acontecem em Hawkins, Indiana. Em 1983, fenômenos sobrenaturais começam a assolar a pacata cidade do médio-oeste americano depois que uma agência governamental de fins escusos abre um portal para outra dimensão, libertando os horrores que lá habitam. Esta é a premissa de Stranger Things (2016-17), série original da Netflix criada pelos irmãos Duffer. Todavia, sabemos de qual dimensão esses fenômenos vêm: das páginas de Stephen King, dos filmes de Steven Spielberg e Ridley Scott; do tabuleiro de Dungeons & Dragons. A despeito dos mais óbvios canais de intertextualidade, observaremos a influência mais relevante para a criação da atmosfera de horror da segunda temporada: a obra de H.P. Lovecraft, notadamente o conto “A Cor que Caiu do Espaço” (1927) e os Mitos de Cthulhu. A inspiração em Lovecraft, declarada pelos criadores da série, transforma Hawkins em uma paisagem de horror, leva um dos protagonistas à beira da loucura e projeta a sombra mortal de uma abominação antiga.

Abstract:
O objeto deste artigo é identificar possibilidades de leitura e correlações entre a graphic novel Os lobos dentro das paredes, de Neil Gaiman, lançado nos Estados Unidos em 2003 (no Brasil, o livro Os lobos dentro das paredes foi lançado em 2006, pela Editora Rocco), e a primeira temporada da série Stranger Things, criada pelos irmãos Matt e Ross Duffer, distribuída pela Netflix, veiculada a partir em 15 de julho de 2016. O livro de Gaiman narra a história de uma garota que ouve ruídos vindos de dentro das paredes de sua casa; ela tenta avisar os pais, porém, os lobos tomam a casa. Temática similar ressurge na primeira temporada da série de TV Stranger Things, cuja narrativa se desenvolve na cidade de Hawkins, Indiana, e gira em torno do desaparecimento do menino Will. Ao longo dos episódios, um ser monstruoso, sem rosto, surge das paredes da casa, aterrorizando os personagens. O presente trabalho, no âmbito da Literatura comparada, propõe, como referencial teórico, os estudos de Todorov sobre as estruturas narrativas e a literatura fantástica, e os pressupostos de David Roas em Ameaça do fantástico.

Abstract:
The late nineteenth century saw a wave of Indian migrants arrive in Victoria, many of whom took up the occupation of hawking. These often-described “turban-clad hawkers” regularly became visible to settlers as they moved through public space en route to the properties of their rural customers. This article explores how the turban became a symbol of the masculine threat Indians posed to the settler order of late nineteenth-century Victoria, Australia. This symbolism was tied up with the two-fold terrestrial and oceanic mobility of 'turban-clad' men; mobilities that took on particular meanings in a settler-colonial context where sedentarism was privileged over movement, and in a decade when legislators in Victoria and across the Australian colonies were working out ways to exclude Indian British subjects from the imagined Australian nation. I argue that European settlers' anxieties about the movements of Indian British subjects over sea and over land became metonymically conflated in ways that expressed and informed the late nineteenth-century project to create a settled and purely white nation. These findings have repercussions for understandings of the contemporaneous emergence of nationalisms in other British settler colonies.

Abstract:
Development of Indian English Literature in India gathered momentum with the consolidation of British imperialism in India. As we know the British sow the seed of Indian Writing in English during the period of the British rule in India. English language and literature in India starts with the advent of East India Company in India. It all started in the summers of 1608 when Emperor Jahangir, in the courts of Mughals, welcomed Captain William Hawkins, Commander of British Naval Expedition Hector. It was India's first tryst with an Englishman and English. Jahangir later allowed Britain to open a permanent port and factory on the special request of King James IV that was conveyed by his ambassador Sir Thomas Roe. English were here to stay. Indian writings in English were heavily influenced by the Western art form of the novel. It was typical for the early Indian English language writers to use English unadulterated by Indian words to convey experiences that were primarily Indian. The core reason behind this step was the fact that most of the readers were either British or British educated Indians. In the early 20th century, when the British conquest of India was achieved, a new breed of writers started to emerge on the block. These writers were essentially British who were born or brought up or both in India. Their writing consisted of Indian themes and sentiments but the way of storytelling was primarily western. They had no reservation in using native words, though, to signify the context. This group consisted likes of Rudyard Kipling, Jim Corbett, and George Orwell among others. In fact, some of the writings of that era are still considered to be masterpieces of English Literature. KEYWORDS: Contribution of British, Development, British works & strategy, English Literature.

Abstract:
This study investigates the status and habitat characteristics of the Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperi), the Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus), the Broadwinged Hawk (Buteo platvpterus), and the Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo 'amaicensis) in East-central Indiana to provide information useful for the conservation of these species. Surveys of hawks were conducted using taped Great-horned Owl broadcasts at 350 points between April and July, 1995 and 1996. The relative abundance was estimated using the proportion of area occupied technique. Estimates of the proportion of area occupied by each species ranged from 4% to 34%. Red-tailed Hawks were estimated to occupy 34% of the area surveyed. Estimates of the area occupied by Cooper's Hawks was 8% and by Red-shouldered Hawks was 4%. Broad-winged Hawks only occupied two points, therefore no estimate of the area occupied was determined. Macro-habitat characteristics were quantified for each species within a 0.8-km radius of the center of each occupied area and were compared with randomly selected unoccupied areas. Large forested areas with less human development were most preferred by Red-shouldered and Broad-winged Hawks. Cooper's hawks and Red-tailed hawks were found in a wide variety of habitat types.

Jain, Priyanka. "NEOLIBERALIZING THE STREETS OF URBAN INDIA: ENGAGEMENTS OF A FREE MARKET THINK TANK IN THE POLITICS OF STREET HAWKING." UKnowledge, 2013. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/geography_etds/14.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation looks into the processes by which neoliberalism is mutating with various local and global discourses in order to transform urban space for marginalized street hawkers in the Global South, specifically Delhi, India. Following the current engagements in geographic literature on neoliberalism that focus on the contextually embedded character and the path-dependent process of the spread of free market ideas, I make free market advocacy think tanks--a rather unknown and under-investigated accomplice to this process--my main entry point. Corporate funded think tanks are often found advocating a neoliberal doctrine of free markets, minimal government intervention, and privatization. A self-professed civil society organization, the Center for Civil Society (CCS) in Delhi is one of the first neoliberal, national and foreign corporation funded, advocacy think tanks in India and one of its many agendas is to counter the popular belief that neoliberalism is harmful for the urban poor such as street hawkers. Various NGOs, social workers, scholars, academicians, and think tanks including CCS came together to form the National Policy of Street Vendors, 2009 (NPSV), one of the first policy proposals in modern India to tackle the problems of urban spaces of street vending. Through my investigations I wish to highlight the neoliberal attitudes that are concealed in this policy regarding street hawkers. By bringing these neoliberal undertones to the forefront, this dissertation discusses how this so called “pro-hawking” policy that is being pushed to be implemented in the majority of Indian cities is in fact hostile to hawkers. I demonstrate this fact by explaining that NPSV and its proponents view space as a capitalist commodity and are attempting to transform the rich social spaces of Indian city streets into hollow container spaces of capitalist production and consumption. In this way, this dissertation connects macro spaces of governance such as city streets to the micro spaces of governmentality such as think tanks like CCS.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter begins with Pickens’s rapid transformation from a renowned Indian fighter to a peacemaker. South Carolina state leaders entrust Pickens with the conduct of diplomacy with the Cherokees and with the Creeks, specifically Creek leader Alexander McGillivray. In 1785 he is appointed as a federal treaty commissioner and plays an important role in concluding the Hopewell treaties with the Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw Indians at his Hopewell property in December 1785 and January 1786. These treaties are the first ones between the new United States and the Indian tribes south of the Ohio River. The chapter stresses the tension between men like Pickens and Benjamin Hawkins who hoped the federal government could negotiate permanent and just agreements with the Indians and other whites and state leaders who resented the federal government’s role and were anxious to take over more Indian land.

Abstract:
In the late eighteenth century, U.S. Indian agent Benjamin Hawkins observed that Creeks maintained “beloved bear-grounds” near towns to protect bear habitat. However, Hawkins also noted, “as the cattle increase and the bear decrease, they are hunted in common.” Hawkins’ observations suggest a relationship between the frequency of the two species, and zooarchaeological assemblages from Creek towns support this hypothesis. A frequency index of bear and cattle remains indicate that as cattle increased over time, bear decreased precipitously. Creek hunters initially despised cattle, believing that beef would make the consumer slow and dim-witted. However, with the decline of the deerskin trade, Creek hunters turned to animal husbandry. The best graze for cattle was found in the “beloved bear grounds” and cattle husbandry quickly devastated native bear habitats. By the end of the eighteenth century, cattle displaced bears from their native habitat, and replaced bears in Creek life.

Abstract:
Abstract Oceania comprises Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, and Tonga, and habited by distinct ethnic peoples, to which ‘Hindoos’ were brought by colonial powers. With the arrival of indentured labourers (girmityas) in Fiji 150 years ago, Fiji-Hindus have worked tirelessly towards preserving their way of life. Over the generations, Hindu sects have created their unique identity through their culture and adapted practices. Recently, New Zealand’s resident Indian populations have also increased significantly. Generations of Hindus from Gujarat, joined by Indo-Fijians, South Indians, and Hindus from elsewhere, have established temples and associations representing a diversity in languages and religious cultures. South Asians began arriving as seamen onboard ships from India to the colonies of terra australis, circa 1790s. Even during ‘White Australia’ years, significant numbers of Hindoos were recruited as farmworkers, labourers, and mineral-diggers, some becoming hawkers and merchants. With surges in professional and student migration, in more recent decades, Hindus with their temples, community centres, comparatively high profile and education, are contributing to the region’s multiculturalism, while passing on their heritage to the next generations.

Abstract E-commerce involves the transaction of goods and services, the transfer of funds, and the exchange of data. It draws on technologies like mobile commerce, electronic funds transfer, supply chain management, internet marketing, and online transaction processing. In recent days, on sudden, unexpected advent of Covid-19, e-commerce has reached a higher place in the world of digitalization. This case study highlights online shopping versus traditional marketing. It also highlights the products which were of less importance and less in demand by consumers until the Covid-19 pandemic situation, gained more demand by young entrepreneurs to showcase their products on online retailing marketplaces. The spread of online retailing has spawned many internet entrepreneurs hawking obscure or regionally known products. So when is the long tail market viable?

Smartphone penetration in India has led to the successful adoption of technology among all demographic segments. Smartphone adoption, followed by affordable internet, opened the doors for many technologies and applications to disseminate among various segments. Mobile wallets also piggyback on the penetration of mobile phones and the Internet, providing wonderful opportunities for hawkers to manage their payments. Mobile wallets are like physical wallets and are one of the latest innovations with considerable potential which has been adopted by all. Ease of use, trialability, and relative advantage are a few factors leading to hawkers' adoption. The present chapter will try to unlock the factors that fuel mobile wallet adoption.

Abstract Extracts from Russell’s autobiography, Part 1 (Findings Keepings) describes how he first learnt Urdu. Conscripted into the army and sent to India, he learnt basic Urdu in army training near Abbottabad, where—unusually for a British officer—he took it seriously and became a fluent speaker; through subsequent transfers to other parts of India, and eventually to the India/Burma border. He describes his appreciative contacts with any local people he was able to meet despite the constraints of army life: his Urdu teacher from a landowning family; camp servants; hawkers; a Pathan fellow officer; and two destitute children who attached themselves to his unit. Knowing Urdu enabled him to get to know them personally and learn about their different life conditions; and with the sepoys in his unit he was able to discuss current political issues in India, without senior army officers’ knowledge.

This chapter compares Black Hawk’s description of his people’s resistance to Illinois settlement in Life of Black Hawk or Ma-Ka-Tai-Me-She-Kia-Kiak (1833) with Margaret Fuller’s description of the settler’s territorial gains in her travel account Summer on the Lakes, in 1843. Where Black Hawk relates his people’s belonging to the land through a shared body of Sauk oral tradition and collective forms of testimony, Fuller narrates U.S. settlers’ claims through a similarly shared body of classical allusions and employs the Western logic of translatio studii. Both of these accounts frame nineteenth-century Sauk dispossession within a larger temporal arc, showcasing competing and culturally specific rhetorics of belonging beyond the state. Recognizing these texts culturally specific accounts of statelessness highlights the unsettling nature of their competing epistemologies of land ownership.

Abstract This chapter discusses how Xi Jinping’s rule and American responses have interacted to cause US-China relations to deteriorate under the Trump and Biden administrations. During the Trump administration, China’s increasingly belligerent foreign policy brought hawkish elements to the fore especially during Trump’s campaign for re-election. After Biden entered the White House, Xi Jinping doubled down on his global overreach rather than signaling a desire for reconciliation. With the recent cases of China’s border clash with India, trade sanctions to punish Australia, the more frequent maritime incursions in Asia, and the support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, this chapter concludes that the overreaching is likely to be more acute in Xi’s third term. It also recognizes that China’s peaceful rise would require gradual political reform that is missing today under Xi Jinping.

Full text
Abstract:
The paper presents a sociolinguistic study of the linguistic visuals (including shop signages, product descriptions, wall-posters, advertisements, graffiti, etc) of the major tourist localities in the Indian city of Varanasi. Varanasi is one of the most ancient and continuously thriving Indian cities, with rich and diverse religious, cultural, and commercial traditions. Consequently, the multi-cultural and multilingual landscape of Varanasi is the reflection of a city which has remained as one of the most sought-after pilgrimage destinations, from ancient times and until the present. The city is therefore presently a well-known tourist destination for domestic as well as international tourists, including salvation seekers and settlers from throughout India. The city’s visual displays, in the form of linguistic signs and cultural symbols across temples, stores, and streets, reflect the rich multi-cultural tradition of the city. The present study draws on data collected by visiting the city, interacting with its people, and documented through photographing linguistic visuals across the major tourist attractions of the city; the neighbourhoods of the banks of the river Ganges. Among the interesting features of the multi-dimensional linguistic visuals are the instances of multi-lingual and multi-modal shop signages, slogans, signboards, banners, and posters across the busy lanes, boats, hawkers’ trolleys, roads, stairs, and walls. By documenting and discussing the innovative blends of illustrative instances of alphabets, spellings, scripts, and creative designs of the fonts, as well as cultural and religious symbols, the paper reports that the linguistic landscape of the city aptly represents diverse and dynamic aspects, including the regular concerns of the people; from their cultural and creative considerations to commercial compulsions, all of which are strikingly and clearly noticeable across the city’s linguistic visuals.

Abstract:
Jets at higher Reynolds numbers have a high concentration of energy in the small scales in the nozzle vicinity. This is challenging for LES, potentially placing severe demands on grid density. To circumvent this, we propose a novel procedure based on well known Reynolds number (Re) independence of jets. We reduce the jet Re whilst rescaling the boundary layer properties to maintain incoming boundary layer thickness consistent with high Re jet. The simulations are carried out using hybrid largeeddy simulation type of approach which is incorporated by using near wall turbulence model with modified properties. No Subgrid Scale (SGS) model is used in these simulations. Hence, they effectively become Numerical Large Eddy Simulation (NLES) with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) covering the full boundary layer region. The noise post processing is carried out using Ffowcs-Williams-Hawking (FWH) approach. The simulations are made for Mach numbers (M) of 0.75 and 0.875. The results for Overall Sound Pressure Level (OASPL) are observed to be within 2–3% accuracy range and directivity of sound is also captured accurately for both the cases. The low Re simulations hence, can be more beneficial in saving time and cost of the simulation while providing reasonably accurate results.
