Resumen
The influence of British literature on global literature is enormous. In so many ways, British literature has influenced world literature. The Anglo-Saxon period established the British literature tradition, which continues to influence world literature today. In this blog post, we will look at various aspects of British literature's influence on global literature. The study of literary works from the United Kingdom and other countries around the world is known as British and world literature. It includes classic and contemporary works, often translated into English, that reflect regional and historical cultural and social norms. Individuals who study British and world literature gain insights into the historical, social, and cultural contexts in which the works were written. This allows for a better understanding of human experiences and the appreciation of different points of view. British literature composition is the process of creating written works in the English language that originate in or are related to the United Kingdom. This includes works written by British authors throughout history in the genres of fiction, poetry, drama, and nonfiction. Different literary movements, such as Medieval, Renaissance, Romanticism, and Postmodernism, have shaped the evolution of British literature composition. The composition of British literature has had a significant impact on the literary world and continues to inspire many contemporary writers.

Resumen
Abstract: Although teaching literature in the American university has been informed in recent years by ideas involving critical race studies, postcolonial theory, gender studies, and ecocriticism, one part of the curriculum that has remained relatively unchanged is the British literature survey course. This paper explores how such surveys can be transformed so that experiences of race—and particularly Blackness—are included, with particular attention paid to the HBCU institutional context.

Davies, L. V. L. "The tramp in British interwar literature." Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2016. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1473969/.

Texto completo
Resumen
My thesis explores representations of the tramp in British literature during the interwar period. I argue that the figure of the tramp evolved out of the vagabond in response to industrialism, and propose the idea that the tramp symbolically denotes resistance to the goal driven logic of capitalism, as well as normative values that provide a supportive framework for growth within disciplinarian society. I propose that any attempt to speak negatively of tramps in a way that goes beyond a concern with their suffering betrays the underlying ideological agenda. Against this, I suggest that positive descriptions of the tramp might serve as a form of political protest against the productivist paradigm. My thesis then focusses on the interwar period in Britain; a time when unemployment soared, levels of homelessness rose, and the figure of the tramp gained prominence. I ask whether these texts denigrate or celebrate the tramp, and attempt to demonstrate how this ties into the individual contexts within which they were written. To do this, I centre on three manifestations of tramp writing during the interwar period: social exploration writing, the tramp memoir, and tramp fiction. In Chapter One I trace the origins of social exploration before introducing six interwar authors who disguised themselves as tramps in order to infiltrate and write about the tramp community. In Chapter Two I trace the history of tramp life-writing. I then introduce ten interwar memoirists – all of whom, though with a variety of backgrounds, self-identified as tramps. In Chapter Three I focus on six interwar novelists who feature the tramp in their work. In each chapter I provide biographical information for the various authors and consider critical responses to their work.

Petty, Sue. "Working-class women and contemporary British literature." Thesis, Loughborough University, 2009. https://dspace.lboro.ac.uk/2134/5441.

Texto completo
Resumen
This thesis involves a class-based literary criticism of working-class women s writing. I particularly focus on a selection of novels by three working-class women writers - Livi Michael, Caeia March and Joan Riley. Their work emerged in the 1980s, the era of Thatcherism, which is a definitive period in British history that spawned a renaissance of working-class literature. In my readings of the novels I look at three specific aspects of identity: gender, sexuality and race with the intersection of social class, to examine how issues of economic positioning impinge further on the experience of respectively being a woman, a lesbian and a black woman in contemporary British society. I also appropriate various feminist theories to argue for the continued relevance of social class in structuring women s lives in late capitalism. Working-class writing in general, and working-class women s writing in particular, has historically been under-represented in academic study, so that by highlighting the work of these three lesser known writers, and by indicating that they are worthy of study, this thesis is also complicit in an act of feminist historiography.

Bottrill, Graham. "British socialist literature : from Chartism to Marxism." Thesis, Cardiff University, 2006. http://orca.cf.ac.uk/55629/.

Texto completo
Resumen
This thesis is a selected narrative sequence, focusing upon social/political narratives published between 1870 and 1888 in order to connect the literature of Chartism, published in the 1840s and 1850s, with the naturalistic political novels of Margaret Harkness published between 1888 and 1921. The thesis was initially conceived during graduate study undertaken at the University of California in 1981-3. The foundations were fully laid by research undertaken independently during 1989 and 1990, while teaching in New York. Here, the truly inspiring facilities of the New York Public Library made it all real. The complications of returning to England in 1991 and the pressures of earning a living in a non-academic environment resulted in the study being left for many years, though not forgotten. I owe the completion of the thesis to its reception by the School of English, Communication and Philosophy at Cardiff University in 2003, and to the rigorous and detailed support from my adviser, Professor Stephen Knight. I would also like to extend my thanks to the facilities of the School of English, Communication and Philosophy for supplying me with prints of rare microfilmed documents, available only from the British Library. Working on such a thesis as a part-time student in addition to full-time and largely unrelated work eats significantly into personal time. I therefore thank my partner, Ruth Hecht, for her support and positive encouragement throughout its composition. Finally, I would like to remember my family, the Bottrills, who lived for many generations between Coventry and Leicester, the men as farm labourers or coal miners in rural pits, the women in domestic service. They lived and worked throughout the period covered by this thesis, and to them ultimately it is dedicated.

Resumen
Before the age of sensibility, the literary scaffold was a device, albeit one with its own set of associations. Its purpose was to arrest plot, create tension, and render character. Fictional representations of execution typically did not question the place of capital punishment in society. They were heroic events in which protagonists were threatened with a judicial device that was presumed righteous in every other case but their own. But in the eighteenth century, the fictional scaffold acquired new significance: it deepened a Gothic or sublime tone, tested reader and character sensibility, and eventually challenged the judicial status quo. The reliance on the scaffold to generate atmosphere, to wring our compassion, or to examine the legal value of the individual resulted in a new type of literature that I call scaffold fiction, a genre that persists to this day. Representations of execution in eighteenth-century tragedy, in Gothic narratives, and in novels of sensibility centered more and more on a hero’s scaffold anxiety as a means of enlarging pathos while subverting legal tradition. Lingering on a character’s last hours became the norm as establishment tools like execution broadsheets and criminal biography gave way to scaffold fictions like Lee’s The Recess and Smith’s The Banished Man—fictions that privilege the body of the condemned rather than her soul and no longer reaffirm the law’s prerogative. And because of this shift in the material worth of individuals, the revolutionary fictions of the Romantic era in particular induced questions about the scaffold’s own legitimacy. For the first time in Western literary history, representations of execution usually had something to imply about execution itself, not merely the justness of a particular individual’s fate. The first two chapters of my study are devoted to close readings of Georgian tragedy and Gothic novels, which provide a representative sample of the kinds of tropes particular to scaffold fiction (if they exist before the eighteenth century, they are less vivid, less present). The negotiation of a sentence, the last farewell, the lamentation of intimates, the imagined scaffold death of a loved one, and the taboo attachment of a condemned Christian to his flesh became more sustained and elaborate, opening up new arguments about the era’s obsession with sublimity, imagination, and sympathy, which in turn provide me with critical frameworks. The last two chapters pull back from the page in order to examine how literary representations of execution shifted as perspectives on the death penalty shifted. Anti-Jacobin fictions that feature the scaffold, for instance, were confounded by the device’s now vexed status as a judicial solution. Challenging the supposed authoritarian thrust of texts like Mangin’s George the Third and Craik’s Adelaide de Narbonne, the anti-Jacobin scaffold was swept up in a general reimagining of the object and its moral implication, which by extension helps to dismantle the reductive Jacobin/anti-Jacobin binary which critics increasingly mistrust. My final chapter devotes space to William Godwin, whose novels underscore the moral horror of the scaffold not just as the ultimate reification of the law’s power but, more interestingly, as the terminus of the “poor deserted individual, with the whole force of the community conspiring his ruin” (Political Justice). Godwin, a Romantic writer who anticipates Victorian and twentieth-century capital reforms, brings the scaffold fiction of writers like Defoe and Fielding into fruition as he wrote and agitated at the height of the Bloody Code, creating a template for Dickens, Camus and a host of modern authors and filmmakers.

Texto completo
Resumen
In summer 2021, air temperatures in Canada broke records multiple days in a row as a powerful heatwave spread over the Pacific Northwest, registering over 600 heat-related deaths and setting an all-time high-temperature record for the country at 49.6°C (121.3°F). An insufficient preparedness for such high temperatures meant that emergency response capacity was overwhelmed while the general public was unequipped to deal with anomalous temperatures. As climate change continues to make heat events such as this one more frequent and intense, the lessons learned during this disaster are critical to prepare for the next. This technical background report for the 2021/2022 edition of the Interconnected Disaster Risks report analyses the root causes, drivers, impacts and potential solutions for the British Columbia heatwave through a forensic analysis of academic literature, media articles and expert interviews.

Rogers, Katherine. Higher Education Engagement among Students with Armed Services Backgrounds: A Literature Review. Sheffield Hallam University, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.7190/steer/armed_services.

Texto completo
Resumen
A systematic review of the literature relating to British military families (service and ex-service personnel, spouses and partners and children) and access to, and retention in, higher education; the review evaluates twenty-one articles and reports. Lord Ashcroft’s 2014 Veterans’ Transition Review provided a comprehensive account of the contemporary situation with regard to military service personnel and their families, and transition into civilian life (including access to higher education). This review examines the findings of the Ashcroft report and subsequent research to identify (positive and negative) factors that influence access to, and retention of students with an armed forces background in higher education. By synthesizing the literature, this report makes recommendations about actions to improve access to university, and retention, of students with an armed services background. Students with an armed services background are not a single homogenous group; the Centre for Military Research, Education and Public Engagement identifies at six distinct groups. This report examines the different barriers encountered by different groups and makes specific recommendations for different groups of students with an armed services background.

Resumen
The purpose of this project was to review and utilise methods from other disciplines in the social sciences in order to be able make stronger causal claims using crosssectional gambling data such as gambling prevalence studies. We focused on the question of whether there is a causal relationship between specific gambling products and individual gambling harms, specifically problem gambling. There has been an existing literature that has looked at this issue, but fails to control for selection biases on engagement with specific gambling behaviours. We reviewed and used three approaches: propensity score matching, coarsened exact matching, and sample selection modelling to account for this limitation. Then, we applied them to examine the relationship between 8 types of gambling activity (online betting, offline betting, pools, scratchcards, lotteries, pools, offline bingo, and slot machines/FOBTs) on problem gambling in 9 British gambling prevalence surveys: the Health Survey for England in 2012, 2015, 2016 and 2016; the Scottish Health Survey in 2012, 2015, and 2016, and the British Gambling Prevalence Study in 2007 and 2010. The results showed most gambling activities were, unsurprisingly, associated with an increased risk of addictive behaviour. However, there was a clear gradient of risk. For some gambling activities (i.e., online gambling, slots), the effect sizes were substantially higher than others (i.e., lotteries). The modelling also highlighted covariates that exert strong effects on both the IV and DV of interest at the same time, such as age. The findings of this project thus highlight the importance of controlling for selection mechanisms that influence both engagement and outcomes of interest. There are some activities (e.g., bingo, pools) where these substantially affect relationships between engagement and harms. Nonetheless, there is clear evidence of associations between certain types of gambling product and indicators of harm when these are controlled for.

Resumen
This brief explains youth perceptions of COVID-19 vaccination and outlines key considerations for engaging with and building trust among young people living in Ealing, London. Within the category of ‘young people,’ there are differences in vaccination based on age and ethnicity. This brief is based on research, including a review of the literature and in-depth interviews and focus groups with 62 youth across Ealing to contextualise youth perspectives of COVID-19 vaccination and highlight themes of trust/distrust. We contribute ethnographic and participatory evidence to quantitative evaluations of vaccine roll-out. Key considerations for addressing youth distrust regarding the COVID-19 vaccine are presented, followed by additional regional context. This work builds on a previous SSHAP brief on vaccine equity in Ealing. This brief was produced by SSHAP in collaboration with partners in Ealing. It was authored by Megan Schmidt-Sane (IDS), Tabitha Hrynick (IDS), Jillian Schulte (Case Western Reserve University), Charlie Forgacz-Cooper (Youth Advisory Board), and Santiago Ripoll (IDS), in collaboration with Steve Curtis (Ealing Council), Hena Gooroochurn (Ealing Council), Bollo Brook Youth Centre, and Janpal Basran (Southall Community Alliance), and reviews by Helen Castledine (Ealing Public Health), Elizabeth Storer (LSE) and Annie Wilkinson (IDS). The research was funded through the British Academy COVID-19 Recovery: USA and UK fund (CRUSA210022). Research was based at the Institute of Development Studies. This brief is the responsibility of SSHAP.

Resumen
In 2021–2022, the 1st Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (1 RAR), experimented to develop a ‘disrupt force’ consisting of light infantry augmented with uncrewed aerial systems and ground vehicles. This group operated ahead of other forces to report on the opposing force, but also ambushed enemy reinforcement and withdrawal routes. The disrupt force actively attacked and degraded opposing forces and their plans, isolating objectives and setting the conditions for friendly combat teams to conduct decisive manoeuvre. The aims of this experiment were twofold: to provide feedback on individual platforms and to examine the combination of technologies in a combat system. This work examined Defence science and technology concepts for employment of infantry, and offered insight into how infantry might fight and survive in the Indo-Pacific on a battlefield where uncrewed systems have proliferated. The disrupt force successfully disrupted opposing capabilities and increased the tempo at which the battlegroup could approach and seize objectives. The force neutralised key enemy capabilities using relatively cheap means and took comparatively few casualties. Thus, it offered a disproportionate effect compared to the resources expended to deploy the force. This result is consistent with work conducted by the United States Army and British Army, where literature is converging on ideas around widely dispersed infantry augmented by uncrewed platforms. The exercises indicate that tactics like those used by the disrupt force, with their enabling technology, could offer an asymmetric advantage to the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and warrant further development. Along the way, experiments faced cultural and organisational challenges and required an iterative process. Still, the experience demonstrated that battlegroups should continue the development of the disrupt force, that the ADF should better enable training with uncrewed aerial systems, including in large numbers, and that there would be great value in supporting experimenting teams to collaborate and share lessons learned. This paper presents a review of relevant historical tactics coupled with recent technological changes and describes two years of experiments in the field. It concludes with recommendations for the ongoing development of tactics and experiments in Army.
