Parody In The Context Of Salman RushdieTekin, Kugu 01 January 2010 (has links) (PDF)
The aim of this dissertation is to trace the function of parody in the context of Salman
Rushdie&rsquo / s magical realistic fiction. The magical realism of Rushdie&rsquo / s fiction presents a
complex Third World experience which constitutes an alternative to, and challenges the
Eurocentrism of western culture. The form and content of Rushdie&rsquo / s novels are so intense and
rich that the whole body of his work comes to the fore, not as an outcome of the two clashing
civilisations, that is East and West, but rather as an immense medley of the two cultures.
While &ldquo / writing back to the empire&rdquo / , Rushdie draws on innumerable sources ranging from
such grand narratives as Genesis, Iliad, Ramayana, A Thousand and One Nights, Hindu,
Persian, Greek, and Norse mythologies, and local cultural traditions, to modern politics
mingling fiction and reality in a broad historical perspective, so that his work becomes a
synthesis of East and West, an international aesthetic plane where diversities express
themselves freely. The dissertation focuses particularly on Rushdie&rsquo / s Midnight&rsquo / s Children,
The Moor&rsquo / s Last Sigh,and Shalimar The Clown. / it contains an introductory chapter, a theory
chapter, including two subchapters, a development chapter with three subchapters which
analyse the above mentioned three novels, and a conclusion chapter. The introductory chapter
presents an overview of the issues to be investigated in the subsequent chapters. The theory
chapter deals with the concepts of colonialism, nationalism, and the past and the present of
postcolonial literary theory with reference to its leading theorists, such as M. Foucault, E.
Said, H. Bhabha, and other recent critics / this chapter also introduces magical realism by
reference to a number of current definitions and approaches. The following three subchapters,
which focus on the analyses of the three novels, explore how parody functions both
thematically and structurally in relation to Rushdie&rsquo / s magical realism. The concluding chapter
demonstrates that Rushdie&rsquo / s work creates an unrestrained plane of an international culture
where multiple visions and diversities can find a room to assert themselves.

Brother Tarantino in the mosque: An analysis of the cultural and political instrumentality of satire in "The Lizard" (2004)Tavernaro-Haidarian, Leyla 02 December 2008 (has links)
Against the backdrop of a possible US military attack on Iran, this report examines a film
that advances the case for independent political reform from within Iran’s borders. The
case study analyzes the cultural and political instrumentality of satire in Kamal Tabrizi’s
film, The Lizard (2004). By determining the socio-political restrictions that inform Iran’s
society and film industry, it demonstrates that The Lizard uses satire to transgress the
value-system that the Iranian theocracy is upheld by. The study draws on narrative
analysis to explore the film’s satiric devices of parody and masquerade and discusses
their significance in creating new images of clergy that combine to build an alternative
reality to the one portrayed in mainstream Iranian media. The report argues that this
utopian space undermines the established order by redefining or rejecting the terms and
dichotomies communicated through its official channels.

Espaço e metaficção em A house for Mr. Biswas, de V. S. Naipaul / Space and metafiction in House for mr. Biswas, de v.s. NaipaulBolfarine, Mariana 03 June 2011 (has links)
A presente dissertação propõe um estudo do espaço literário no romance A House for Mr. Biswas (1961), do escritor indo-caribenho V. S. Naipaul. Num primeiro momento, pautamos nossa leitura na relação constituída entre o espaço e o sujeito por meio do estudo dos cronotopos, de Bakhtin, verificando a presença de dois principais temas espaciais: o da clausura, sobre como o espaço influi na constituição da subjetividade dos personagens e o de transição, sobre o deslocamento do protagonista, Mr. Biswas, do espaço rural para o urbano, despertando nele um vislumbre de agência. Realizamos uma análise detalhada do jornal e da educação colonial e, em seguida, enfocamos a casa e seus constituintes estruturais, bem como as possessões que o protagonista acumula ao longo de sua vida. Concluímos que A House for Mr. Biswas é um romance metaficcional que utiliza a metáfora da escrita e da construção da casa para representar o processo de sua própria construção. A metaficção se manifesta por meio da paródia do gênero do romance de formação, já incorporado pela literatura inglesa dos séculos XVIII e XIX, resultando na criação de um novo romance que almeja pertencer à tradição literária estabelecida, mas que, ao mesmo tempo, encontra-se em dívida em relação a ela. / This dissertation examines the concept of literary space in the novel A House for Mr. Biswas (1961), by the Indo-Caribbean writer V. S. Naipaul. We have based our reading upon the relationship between space and subject by means of Bakhtins chronotopes, verifying the presence of two major themes: that of closure, related to the way in which space affects the constitution of the subjectivity of the characters, and that of transition, about the displacement of the protagonist, Mr. Biswas, from a rural to an urban space, awakening in him a glimpse of agency. We have conducted a detailed analysis of the newspaper and of colonial education, and then the focus shifts to the house and its structural components, as well as to the possessions which the protagonist accumulates throughout his life. We conclude that A House for Mr. Biswas is a metafictional novel that uses the metaphor of writing and that of the building of the house in order to represent the process of constructing the novel itself. Metafiction is disclosed through the parody of the formation novel, already incorporated by English literature of the 18th and 19th centuries, resulting in the creation of a new novel, which aspires to become part of the established literary tradition, but that is still, at the same time, is indebted to it.

Parody and pastiche in the use of popular culture in the evangelistic practices of Korean churchesLee, Min Hyoung 21 June 2018 (has links)
Since the end of 20th century, Korean churches have awakened to the importance of culture, cultural products, and culture-making in discipling Christians and evangelizing non-Christians. In particular, popular culture has become very important for practicing evangelism in the context of Korean Christianity because pop culture is enjoyed by a large segment of the population and thus provides a natural bridge between Christians and non-Christians.
This dissertation examines Korean churches’ pervasive mimetic use of popular cultural elements that Christians and non-Christians relish, such as movies, plays, and popular music styles. While Korean churches introduced these slightly modified materials from popular culture as “parodies,” I argue that they are instead pastiches, and I explore the extent to which these pastiches are able to play a role as significant, though problematic, evangelistic media in the context of Korean Christianity. Since this practice encompasses Christian evangelism, popular culture, and the relationship of those two by a particular artistic technique, I approach the study of evangelistic pastiches both theologically and aesthetically studying their practical, theological role within the church setting.
The dissertation argues that pastiches are combinations of imitated images that do not contain any substantive messages. When it comes to utilizing pastiches in evangelistic practices, the interesting and entertaining, but ultimately hollow, messages distort faithful witness to the gospel by emptying it. I suggest that evangelistic pastiches are simulacra that only communicate a hyper-gospel. Parody, by contrast, is a creative production that makes of Christianity and popular culture a new, culturally hybrid form with the capacity for building a robust relationship between Christianity and popular culture. Parody can play a positive role in enriching Christian evangelism by providing a substantive means to witness to the kingdom of God by providing a Christian perspective on and critique of culture and its concerns. Parody creates a point of contact between Christians and non-Christians from which Christian evangelism can be initiated.
