Corpus analysis of the lexeme 'Frankenstein'
Vlatka Vidaković
This thesis presents a corpus analysis of the lexeme ‘Frankenstein’, which has been around for more than 200 years. Initially being a character in Mary Shelley’s 1818 gothic novel, a human-like monster created in the laboratory of Victor Frankenstein, the lexeme has survived many linguistic and cultural changes, but sustained, if not increased, its popularity. The first paragraph of the thesis has to do with the reception of the novel and its contemporariness. The next chapter...

Corpus research on the use and meaning of "burn out"
Monija Škriljevečki
This thesis explores the literal and metaphorical use of burn out. Based on a corpus study of native English written works, and related literary work, it argues that burn out is motivated by the literal conceptual frame of A FIRE STOPPING TO BURN and its relating properties. These properties include heat, light, smoke, use of burnables and energy, burning sensation, and working as a selective eliminator and destructor. Except for the literal meaning of burn out directly involving fire, the...

Crash and its thematic cousins
Crash and its thematic cousins
Leon Kiš
Ballard’s 1973 novel Crash is one of the most controversial pieces of fiction to appear in post-war Europe. It explores, along with the author's three other major novels, the modern world marked by rapid technological change. This spawns a new logic of perversion and seduction, which in turn affects human behavior. The author examines the violence and eroticism produced by the headlong collision of the human subject with the technological landscape.

Cristianismo e a expansão marítima portuguesa
Cristianismo e a expansão marítima portuguesa
Ivana Prša
Na expansão do império e na colonização portuguesa, a visão cristã teve um lugar extremamente importante. A visão cristã e as convicções de superioridade e dominação predominaram o discurso da colonização e da cristianização das populações indígenas. As convicções de que as crenças dos “pagãos” são inferiores e exóticas, que é preciso salvar as suas almas, que toda a terra pertence a Deus e aos cristãos, são algumas das convicções que construiram uma forte...
