The author of the paper studied the experience and attitudes of 30 scholars working at a faculty in Serbia. The results of the questionnaire comply with the findings of much larger linguistic and sociolinguistic studies conducted on the subject in other non-English academic communities. Namely, to achieve personal academic goals and receive international recognition, all respondents are obliged to publish their papers in English. The choice of the publishing language is simple and does not depend on respondent's age, gender, degree of education, scientific field, knowledge of other foreign languages, and English competence. The choice of publishing language is obvious and comes down to English as a lingua franca (ELF) because 93% of scholars questioned consider English the most significant language for their scientific career and research field. Although they all publish their papers in ELF, most of these non-native speakers of English face both linguistic and non-linguistic issues in terms of lack of material resources, access to the latest research and technical problems. However, the bright side of the questionnaire is the finding that as much as 77% of respondents teaching at one faculty in Serbia publish their articles in the national journals in their native language. Thus, it is conclusive that ELF does not represent a threat to the Serbian language which still remains an important channel of publishing. Certainly, it is necessary to conduct a more extensive study on attitudes of a larger number of Serbian scholars regarding publishing in their native language and English, but this sample confirms that ELF is not necessarily a threat to local languages provided that it is regarded as a means of communication between scientists who do not speak the same native language.

The aim of this paper is to examine and analyze the main characters in Ian McEwan's novel The Comfort of Strangers (1981) in the light of the overarching theme of the novel, that is, how unconscious or conscious desires lead to violence and destruction. Jacques Lacan's psychoanalytic theory comprises the main theoretical framework of the paper. More specifically, his concepts of the symbolic order and clinical structure of perversion serve as an analytical tool for the analysis of characters. Therefore, the main hypothesis of the paper is that McEwan's characters, the problems of sexual violence and unrecognized desires can be analyzed and explained through Lacan's theory of perversion and symbolic order. What Lacan's theory illuminates in the context of the novel is that characters' unconscious motivations and drives formed during their earliest experiences, if left unrecognized and unaddressed, lead to violence and destruction.

A.S. Byatt's works have had an intricate relationship with postmodernism, and this relationship is probably best exhibited in Possession and The Biographer's Tale. Both novels display complex webs of allusions, references, play with genre and form, as well as intense self-reflection, all of which can be seen as typical postmodern features. However, it can be argued that both novels go beyond that, and instead of merely being self-reflexive, they are primarily intensely reflexive of their status as postmodern works. In other words, both novels seek to examine and parody postmodernism from the inside, thus subverting it and transcending it by going beyond its typical features. This approach to writing can be referred to as meta-postmodern since the novels essentially use postmodern techniques to discuss postmodernism, as well as to contrast it with some other periods of literary history and/or approaches to literature and scholarship in general. The aim of the following paper is to examine these characteristics of the novels and to find an apt description of Byatt's narrative style.

In our research, we saw that Andreyev's assumptions were fulfilled - the film perfected the technique of depicting the action and the scene. The truth theater has replaced the incomprehensible naturalist theater with the new viewer. Enchanted theater is what makes everyone involved in a play - the writer, the stage, the theater and the audience. New Age viewers have to play offstage. In order for viewers to participate in a play, it must be responsive to new challenges - a more developed intellect, which gives the theater a representation of "intellectual experiences", or as Andreyev puts it: "the time of the drama of the Word has come. The body is surrendered to the film, and the soul and thought to the theater. (…) there is the subtlest crack of survival, almost like a dream of the soul, projection into the fourth dimension…" In further research into this topic it would be interesting to examine the extent to which today's participants in the drama of the Moscow Art Theater (the Hudozhestveny Theater) follow Andreyev's conception, as well as to look at the pro et contra views of contemporary playwrights on the theater of panpsychism.

In an inspirational sense, this study is a derivative of the Hogarth Project - its starting point is the novel Macbeth by the Scandinavian author Jo Nesbø, which in itself redefines Shakespeare's tragedy of the same name, placing it in a contemporary context. The starting point of Nesbø's version is in bringing Shakespeare's thought closer to the modern audience, as well as paying tribute to his genius 400 years after the writer's death. The method of this paper is based on the modernization of interpretation - it is an attempt at interdisciplinary reading (which incorporates approaches characteristic of hermeneutics and criminology) and comparative reading (through the comparison of Shakespeare's plays and Nesbø's novel). In order for such an analysis to be possible in the context of a limited written form, it will be limited to contemplating the notion of the negative hero in Shakespeare's works and Nesbø's novel. The aim of the paper is to interpret the phenomenon of the negative hero and his paradoxical seductiveness, and then to analyse Shakespeare's two protagonists - Richard the Third and Macbeth. Finally, the analysis will be aimed at redefining the phenomenon of the seductiveness of the negative hero done by Jo Nesbø.

This study covers the relation between popular superhero culture and racial difference, specifically, narratives about black superheroes. With the analysis of the origin stories of two black superheroes, Luke Cage and Rage, the paper will point out how their stories consequently and predominantly form discourses of representing difference through the process of infantilization, and by perpetuating stereotypes saturated primarily in hypermasculinity. By theoretically framing the notions of representation of difference within the works of Stuart Hall and Homi Bhabha, this analysis argues that hypermasculinity, anger issues, and infantilization came as specific subversive popular culture texts to respond to social and cultural challenges and problems in American society. In so doing, these discourses formed new stereotypes and maintained their circularity in expressing differences between the dominant white area in America’s society and various ethnic and racial minorities.

Alla luce del più recente dibattito critico, il Petrarchismo cinquecentesco si affranca dalla più semplice dicotomia tra norma e scarto, somiglianza e differenza, imitazione e deviazione rispetto al modello di Petrarca o alla codificazione bembesca, per qualificarsi come movimento complesso e composito, in cui è necessario individuare tanto costanti significative quanto altrettanto significative varianti.
