Soon after the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, foreign translation of Chinese culture was put on the agenda. Lu Xun’s short stories were selected as representative works and translated into English by Yang Xianyi and Gladys Yang (hereinafter referred to as “the Yangs”) in the 1950s and 1960s under the special international and domestic environment, and they have played an important role in spreading Chinese culture to the world. Based on André Lefevere’s Manipulation Theory, especially its three elements, namely, poetics, ideology and patronage, this paper examines the translation methods adopted by the Yangs in their translation of Lu Xun’s short story “Master Gao”. Through example analysis, the article concludes that the Yangs mainly adopted literal translation under the influence of poetics, ideology and patronage in the then special social background. It is hoped that the research aims to provide a theoretical and practical reference for future translation and dissemination of Chinese literary works to the world.

Purpose: This research paper is an attempt to examine the themes of colonialism, diaspora, and sufferance caused by the partition of India and Pakistan through the lens of language and conflict in identities. The paper also seeks to delve deeper upon the consequent breakdown of language as depicted in the short-story Toba Tek Singh. Methodology/ Approach: Textual analysis of mixed modes of reading.  Findings: The short story effectively traced the turmoil and clamour enveloping the people afflicted by the events that followed the partition. Rich with the themes of colonialism, diaspora and the horrors of the partition, the text brought the issues being faced by the people in a way that they were subtly intermeshed within the discourses of the inmates of the mental asylum, which was where the story was situated. The text, characteristically a short story, reflects the feelings of the people that sprouted during and after the partition in a nonchalant way. This subtlety and novelty of expression questions the basis of a ‘nation’. Conclusion: The short-story revolves around the accounts of a number of inmates who are seemingly devastated by the new changes and the new ways of labelling lands. Even if they are able to make sense of this imposed change, they refuse to reason with it completely as a few of them must be relocated, which would consequently distance them from their friends.

Regional short stories in translation have always been a pasture of research in the field of English literature. It opens a vista of information, debate and discussion on the cultural and social crisis faced by the people lying hidden in the smaller pockets of our country. Jammu region is embedded with a rich heritage of Dogri language with an idiosyncratic regional flavour of its folk-tales and short-stories. Translation of Dogri works into other languages has helped the readers in the country and across borders, to peruse the social and cultural milieu of Jammu region. This paper critically examines the Dogri short story “Caretaker” by Padma Sachdev which reveals the agony, insecurities and position of Dogra women in the male-dominated society. In the earlier Dogra society, women suffered at the hands of complex social‑cultural norms, rituals and patriarchal models of suppression. They were often forced into ill‑matched marriages and dohri (reciprocal marriages). Further, they were expected to become obedient wives to their husbands while their own identity got submerged under the burden of family responsibilities, catering to husband needs and rearing children. They often longed for a “home” of their own blessed with love and respect. However, the marital home failed to provide them this blessed home and the parental home became alien to them after marriage. The relationship between husband and wife seems like that of an orient and the occident as man becomes the agent of power, domination and male-centric prejudices against woman. On the other hand, woman acts as an orient who suffers from the societal prejudices for misinterpreted identity and enslavement for her social-cultural representation. As Simone de Beauvoir in her book, The Second Sex analyzes that man fundamentally tries to oppress women by characterizing them as the ‘Other’. Men impose his will on the other and women are cursed with the feelings of inwardness and suppressed voices. “[Man] attaches himself to woman –not to enjoy her, but to enjoy himself.” Hence, Padma Sachdev tries to echo a critical view of the patriarchal social institutions, which subjugate women’s identity for the gains of male supremacy. She also focuses on an unsaid bonding between women as they can sense the misery of each other. They may get corrupted by the feeling of insecurity at some point of time but soon they reconcile as they realise the pain of the other.

Purpose. This paper aims to examine the short stories On the Night before Easter, Student and Bishop by A. P. Chekhov, which the author unites into an individual Easter story cycle based on their common spiritual and moral challenges and particular calendar time – the Easter. Results. The landscape in On the Night before Easter is in consonance with thoughts and inner world of the storyteller, novitiate Hieronimus and idling folk. By depicting nature, Chekhov manages to antithesize ‘spiritual’ and ‘fleshly’, ‘true’ and ‘borrowed’ knowledge. Easter motifs and attributes also contribute to this atmosphere. In this short story, Chekhov portrays the Church representatives as common people, which results in powerful emotional feedback from the readers. The main idea of the Easter short story Student – the issue of human memory, belief and time. At Easter the protagonist – Ivan Velikopolskii – has ‘resurrected’, feels a desire to live and enjoy his life. An accidental meeting with two women at the campfire on Great Friday allows him to acknowledge the importance of being involved in someone else’s suffering and uniting with people. In Bishop, one of Chekhov’s ‘top’ works, Easter motifs, attributes and landscape sketches help the writer to reveal the protagonist’s inner world and get through the author’s idea of the value of human life. This story finalizes many motifs and themes typical for Chekhov’s mature works. Conclusion. The works represented in this article are united by common themes, plots and Easter motifs and multiple psychological details embedded in the narration, which depict the inner world of characters. Landscape descriptions correlating with the characters’ spiritual state also play a significant role.

Актуальность статьи состоит в предложенном подходе к рассмотрению в 10 классе средней школы малой прозы «Дневника писателя» Ф. М. Достоевского, что позволяет учащимся подойти к осмыслению ключевых идей и эстетических принципов писателя, оценить художественные достоинства его рассказов и фельетонов и подготовиться к изучению романа «Преступление и наказание». Цель статьи — изучение философских воззрений Ф. М. Достоевского и построения диалога в текстах «Дневника писателя». Предметом исследования являются ценностные позиции и интенции автора и героев и организация диалога в текстах «Дневника писателя». Изучение организации диалога в прозе Достоевского позволило сделать следующе выводы: проблема, которая приводит героя к самоубийству, состоит в его материалистических убеждениях и эгоистической замкнутости на себе (рассказ «Приговор»); проблема грешника из народа — в его гордости и психической стихийности, однако если в душе нет религиозного нигилизма, то способность обращения к Богу и к покаянию сохраняется (фельетон «Влас»); проблема разорванности диалога в обществе — в забвении человеком евангельских ценностей (рассказ «Мужик Марей»). Предложенный в статье подход к изучению в средней школе малой прозы писателя помогает учащимся понять, что для выхода России на новый этап исторического пути, по мысли Достоевского, образованному русскому обществу необходимо, сохранив способность к рациональной рефлексии, самоанализу, обратиться сердцем к народу, воспринять живущую в глубинах его души правду Христа, выражающуюся в способности и готовности человека к состраданию другому. The article is relevant, for it proposes a relevant approach to the investigation of Fyodor Dostoyevskyʼs “A Writerʼs Diary” by 10thgraders and enables grade 10 students to appreciate Dostoyevskyʼs short stories and satirical stories and to prepare to read “Crime and Punishment”. The aim of the article is to study Fyodor Dostoyevskyʼs philosophical views and to investigate the way he encourages a dialogue in “A Writerʼs Diary”. The research focuses on Dostoyevskyʼs values and intentions and on the way he addresses his readers. The analysis of Dostoyevskyʼs prose enables the author of the article to make the following conclusions: Dostoyevskyʼs character is compelled to commit suicide by his materialistic views and self-centeredness (the short story “The Sentence”); Dostoyevskyʼs charactersʼ vanity and psychological spontaneity are a great problem, however if people do not disown religion, they have a chance to turn to God and repent (the satirical story “Vlas”); social isolation is triggered off by disregard for gospel values (the short story “The Peasant Marey”). The article suggests an approach to the investigation of Dostoyevskyʼs short stories at secondary school that enables school children to understand that according to Dostoyevsky, further development of Russia is only possible if Russian people preserve their capability of rational reflection, self-analysis, their appreciation of common people, their sincere belief in the truth of Christ, their ability and readiness to feel compassionate to other people.

Frantz Fanon’s rebound book Wretched of the Earth discusses his theories and understandings of decolonization, specifically the role of art and culture and how it is affected by a colonizer. In this essay, I analyze whether his theories can be applied to N.K. Jemisin’s short story “The City Born Great,” from her collection of short stories How Long ’Til Black Future Month?, which considers the diaspora, not the colonized nations that Fanon considers in his own writings. Through her reflection of the realities of a people, and her portrayal of an “awakener” of the people, I conclude that although Jemisin does write literature of combat, a term coined by Fanon to include anti-colonial writing and art, she does so in a way that uniquely reflects the African-American diaspora that “The City Born Great” considers and reflects.
