Beowulf ’s Monster Discourse Now
Drawing on Monster Studies, this paper develops its own syncretic theoretical approach to focus on recent transformations of Beowulf’s archetypal plot of the Hero Overcoming the Monster in film discourse, as part of the broad popularity that Beowulf still enjoys in different art forms. Significantly preceded by McTiernan’s The 13th Warrior (1999), an attempt to adapt Michael Crichton’s literary ambition to make Beowulf’s story appealing to modern…
The Functions of Anglo-Saxon Poetry
Linguistic functionalism provides a method to distinguish five basic functions that Anglo-Saxon poetic texts performed. One was the aesthetic function which enabled the scop to display traditional themes and motifs as a “word-hoard” of poetic treasures; another was a metalinguistic game which probed readers’ interpretive skills; a third offered gnomic advice; the fourth sought a pragmatic effect on either the reader’s mind or the course of nature…
Scottish Transnational Discourse of the Great War
A comparison of a 1971 popular song, Eric Bogle's 'And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda' with a 1935 poem, Hugh MacDiarmid's 'At the Cenotaph,' enables this article to produce a transnational, trans-genre and trans-historical discourse analysis of memories of the Great War of 1914-1918. While an ethonosymbolic approach allows for the discovery of resemblances and continuities, Nietzschean genealogy criticizes such monumental, associative views of…
The Strategies of Ultranationalist Discourse
A speech given by the skinhead Combo in the film This is England (2006) provides the ground for an analysis of far-right nationalism. This article uses Critical Discourse Analysis and the idea of the nation as a discursive construct to explain Combo’s strategies to gain dominance over his gang by means of rhetoric, body language, building up an ethos based on Christian and epic mythologies with ethnic connotations, drawing boundaries, and discred…
On the Trail of the Highland Clearances
The story of the Highland Clearances has been a source of inspiration for Scottish writers since McLeod’s Gloomy Memories evoked it dramatically. Not only was it a primary source for historical novels in the Scottish Literary Renaissance, but its essential narrative pattern, consolidating a myth, influenced narratives which were about other topics, including the slum clearances, the alienated lives of Scottish people whose communities were destro…
