Full textThis study explores a literary comparative examination of crime between Africa and Scandinavia, with special attention to Botswana and Norway. Smith’s and Nesbo’s selected novels are used as primary texts for analysis. The novels are, therefore, set in two different areas. These writers depict crime from the African and European perspectives. Chapter One deals with a brief introduction, and the aim and objectives of the study. It also expands on the theoretical background and provides definitions of terms that are used in this paper. Chapter Two presents views from various scholars on crime. This study is based on an Afro-Western approach of literary analysis. In other words, there are thoughts by both African and Western writers which assist in determining possible and noticeable similarities and differences, on the issue of crime. Chapter Three analyses crime from an African perspective while Chapter Four discusses crime from a Western point of view. Each of these chapters reflects on crime through character portrayal and depiction within its context. Chapter Five is a comparative analysis of both novels. The chapter identifies possible similarities and differences, mainly of the depiction of crime in different settings – Africa and Scandinavia, committed by blacks and whites. However, the structural and linguistic approaches of both the novels are also reviewed, assisting in discovering the life, in comparison, of the authors. The last chapter (Chapter Six), is a conclusion of the study and future suggestions. Basically, the study argues that blacks only should not be portrayed as perpetrators, but that whites too can be culprits. Again, there should be an equal of measurement on the weight and honour of the two races. Lastly, the moral is that without considering skin colour, financial and social backgrounds, justice must be served equally. Hence, whoever is caught in any form of wrongdoing, they must be given the appropriate punishment – regardless of race, colour, religious creed, gender, financial and social background.

Full textAgnès Varda has left visible imprints of her subjectivity in her filmography developed over the last six decades. The objective of this doctoral thesis is to consider her entire cinematograghic work scrutinizing these subjective imprints and, through the filmmaker’s voice on off commentaries, linking them to a manifestation of authorship and the desire to exemplify that the world is represented through a singular point of view. Attention is called to the diverse forms of self-representation in the projection of the filmmaker through diverse characters as well as her physical presence in images. Analizing these elements, this text considers Varda’s contribution to modern cinematography to the extent that, through great creative freedom, she has invented new forms which question generic conventions, amongst them the distinction between documentary and fiction.

Full textOs mundos ficcionais são, simultaneamente, complexos, contraditórios, agradáveis e enganosos. Por um lado, assemelham-se com a nossa realidade; por outro, confrontam-na com as nossas fantasias. De facto, o prazer da leitura está relacionado com a possibilidade infinita de explorar espaços. As cidades imaginárias tornam-se então figuras sugestivas, ilusórias e intangíveis, devindo sequências de imagens. Este trabalho analisa o papel da literatura sempre que esta permite analogias entre a realidade e a ficção. Reconhecendo no texto literário a importância da interpretação, pela sua capacidade em transformar palavras em espaços, este estudo procura compreender e interpretar cidades imaginárias a partir de ferramentas próprias da análise da linguagem – as figuras de estilo. Para tal, decidimos fazê-lo através dos livros Hav (1985, 2006) de Jan Morris e The City & The City (2009) de China Miéville, cujas narrativas se localizam em Hav e Beszel/Ul Qoma, respectivamente. Assim, assumindo a relação entre figura de linguagem e imagem de arquitectura, recorremos à metáfora pois o seu carácter de pluralidade semântica atribui um efeito transfigurador ao significado original da palavra. Após um pequeno desvio (apóstrofe), a palavra carece do seu equivalente em imagens. A partir daqui, a interpretação passa a sugerir redundâncias, repetindo imagens já existentes na memória do leitor (pleonasmo). Por conseguinte, aceitamos que os lugares apresentados sejam reais atribuindo-lhes estatuto de entidades viventes ou não, animadas ou inanimadas, mas com significado (animismo). Antes do fim, recuperamos/elencamos ainda as figuras complementares (enumeração). No fim, tudo estará interligado, tempo e espaço, desejo e medo, fantasia e memória, palavras e espaços – numa transcendência temporal e espacial. Aceitamos lugares mesmo sabendo, à partida, que as palavras são providas de significado e causam representações impermanentes. O leitor escolhe. Na verdade, todos nós vivemos em cidades imaginárias.
Fictional worlds can be seen simultaneously intricate, contradictory, pleasant and deceptive. On one hand, they might resemble our own reality, but on the other hand they bring about our own fantasy. In fact, the delights of reading are related to explore infinite possibilities of spaces. Imaginary cities are evocative, delusional and untouchable; they barely are a sequence of images. This essay reflects on the role of literary genres, whenever it promotes analogies between reality and fiction. By recognising the importance of the interpretation of a narrative, we believe in places which transform words into spaces. Hence, our study aims at understanding imaginary cities using literary terms – figurative language. For that, we select two fictional novels: Hav (1985, 2006) by Jan Morris and The City & The City (2009) by China Miéville, whose narratives take place in Hav and Beszel/Ul Qoma, respectively. In order to find the spaces of the narratives, we analyse the relation between figure of speech and image of architecture. First and foremost, we use metaphors to imagine architectural allusions considering its condition to transfer the original meaning of a word into another context. After an interruption (apostrophe), words are converted into images. In correlation, an interpretation of a narrative conveys subjectivity and repetition or (re)placement of memories (pleonasm). It’s liable to experience the illusion and the magic of words if we immerse ourselves, mind and body, incorporating the truth and the fantasy, the quick and the dead (animism). As a peroration, we conclude by repeating and adding the figures of speech (enumeration). In conclusion, everything is mixed up, time and space, dreams and memories, words and spaces – a paradox of being. We sense places where you either pass through or else disappear. You choose. In reality, we all live in imaginary cities.
