The article examines the ‘active presence’ (D. Damrosch) of the Chinese garden in the literary and cultural history of the English Augustan Age. Special attention is paid to W. Temple’s role as an intermediary in the comprehension of a foreign cultural phenomenon; interpretations of his description of the Chinese garden generated an entirely new tradition in the English literature of the early 18th c. J. Addison identified the Chinese garden with the idea of harmony, making it part and parcel of Neoclassical aesthetics. Pope followed the same logic. In his essay, Castell brings together the classical and the Chinese traditions, where the former does not act as an approving authority, rather it is the Chinese tradition that helps give it a more nuanced description. Quite a few English country homes display a combination of Neoclassical principles and elements of the Chinese garden, the new landscaping style summarized by Pope. Augustans’ Chinese garden draws on two national worldviews, but just like the world ‘sharawadji’ introduced byTemple, it belongs to the realm of imagination, at the crossroads of languages and cultures, none of which can fully claim it as their own.

Pleomorphic adenomas account for the majority of parotid masses arising mostly in the superficial part of the gland and enlarging slowly over time. The vast majority are 2 to 6 cm in size when resected. We report resection of a huge mixed parotid tumor. A 40 year-old man had a 15-year history of an enlarging right periauricular mass that had developed areas of discoloration of the overlying skin due to underlying necrosis The patient ultimately underwent resection of the mass, which measured 24 cm in diameter, weighed 4.65 kg, and proved on pathologic examination to be a benign mixed tumor without malignant degeneration. The implications of this unusual case for the management of mixed tumors are discussed, and a review of the world literature on giant pleomorphic adenomas is presented.

Wordsworth is the leading figure of English Romanticism in the 19th century and the most famous poet among the “Lake Poets”. He ushers in a new era of Romanticism for the English literature, and also exerts a great influence on the world literature. Most of his poems are about the natural scenery from which he explores its impact on human’s soul, so he has been regarded as “a poet of nature”. This thesis reveals the formation of the poet’s romantic view of nature and its demonstrations by analyzing one of his famous poems The Daffodils.

Bangladeshi English literature consists of all those literary works written in the English language in Bangladesh and by the Bangladeshi diaspora. Some of its prominent writers are Rabindranath Tagore, Begam Rokeya,Tehmima Anam, Taslima Nasrin and so on. The name of Tagore shows that the origin of Bangladeshi literature can be traced to pre-independent Bengal. The writers of Bangladesh use English as a medium to connect to the rest of the world. It is used as a medium to contribute to the world literature. They also find it a tool to show the real conditions of Bangladesh to the world. Writers like Taslima Nasrin details many of the issues of the nation in her magnum opus Lajja. One of those issues is the violence against women in Bangladesh. In one of her interviews, she states that everything she has written is for the oppressed women of Bangladesh. She further stated that she has wrung her heart out into her words.  She has consistently been criticizing the patriarchal society of the nation for its bad treatment of women.

There have been no previously reported cases in the English literature, with eight cases in the world literature (Witkin and Rosai, 1991; Zuckerberg et al., 1991). We present a case of a solitary fibrous tumour arising in the nasal cavity and review the previous reports.

Abstract When the disintegration of Western colonies in Africa and Asia ended the formal colonialism, the structures of dependency remained intact and were mushroomed to other countries in the region. One such dependency is academic dependency in which universities in much of Asia and Africa follow the curricula introduced in the colonial era. Although scholars put a great deal of efforts in challenging this academic imperialism, this dependency has been promoted by departments such as Department of English. Whereas “World Literature in English” or “Literary Studies” is gaining momentum around the world, the English literature programmes in Iranian universities are celebrating the Anglo-American canonical literature. By drawing on Syed Hussein Alatas’ concepts of “academic dependency,” this paper examines how the English literature programmes in Iran are promoting academic imperialism, which prompts the urgency of decolonisation of English literature. It also reveals how this decolonisation can be taken to its ultimate conclusion.

We present our experience and also review the world literature on the management of retrosternal goitres (RSGs). There is now irrefutable evidence that almost all RSGs will continue to grow and eventually cause airway compression. We describe the diagnosis, investigation and surgical approach to the management of this condition.

The present study is an attempt to discuss the importance of “World Literature” for English literary studies in universities and societies around the world. In this regard, this paper shall refer to the stances adopted by various thinkers against the colonial and ideological essence of the English literature in developing countries. In this part, references are made to postcolonial thinkers and the way they have exposed the barbaric nature of colonialism, in that it has, for decades, marginalized the culture and literature of other nations through cultural (neo)colonialism. The next part offers a brief introduction to the history of the emergence of “World Literature” and the ways in which it contributes to bridging the gap between nations across continents and ideological divides. The final section is devoted to a recapitulatory remark vis-à-vis the reorientation of the public’s eyes towards “World Literature” as a panacea for the colonial prejudice of English literature.
