<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>In the 20th century and especially in the 21st century, the theory and the concepts such as simulation', ‘manipulation', ‘illusion', 'secret' and 'reality' have been interpreted differently from old times in several disciplines especially in visual arts. Some misleading techniques within various methods and aesthetic rules have been applied in the way that they deal with these concepts which are contained in art dynamics serving as a language of visual expression. Though the performed images within ‘Anamorphosis', its alias ‘anamorphic illusion' technique which is one of the most interesting techniques, at first glance look like difficult and chaotic constructions to solve, they represent a fictitious image, space or surface with the purpose of deceiving and they also include visual effects, deformation, and utopia.In the anamorphic works that change as long as it moves and can only be resolved from a specific point and angle, they become a part of the spectator composition in order to discover the truth and meaning and thus interactive situations also occur.</p><p>In this research, with an overview of the anamorphous technique’s form and development in historical process, was carried out in order to examine and evaluate the approach styles of the concept of Illusion which has modern artist Felice Varini who interprets this technique by associating with light, color, texture, mass, place, space, spacing and surface concepts. In accordance with the aim of the study, firstly the definition, types, methods and development process of the Anamorphosis technique have been examined, then some examples of Varini's work, which the first sight are perceived as having complex fragments and manipulating the perception of space at the same time have been presented and the effect of this situation on the viewer and the way of interpretation depending on the misleading features have been discussed.</p><p><strong>Öz</strong></p><p>20. yüzyıl ve özellikle de 21. yüzyılda ‘simülasyon’, ‘manipülasyon’, ‘yanılsama’, ‘giz’ ve ‘gerçeklik’ gibi kuram ve kavramlar, başta görsel sanatlar olmak üzere çeşitli disiplinlerde önceki dönemlerden farklı biçimlerde yorumlanmıştır. Görsel anlatım diline hizmet eden sanat dinamiklerinin içinde barındırdığı bu kavramları ele alış biçimlerinde çeşitli yöntemler ve estetik kuralları dâhilinde de bazı yanıltıcı teknikler uygulanmıştır. En ilgi çekici tekniklerden biri olan ‘anamorfoz’ diğer adıyla ‘anamorfik illüzyon’ tekniği ile gerçekleştirilen görüntüler, ilk bakışta her ne kadar çözümlenmesi zor ve kaotik yapılar gibi gözükseler de yanıltma amacıyla birlikte gerçeği, imgeyi, mekânı veya yüzeyi temsil etmektedirler. Aynı zamanda bu görüntüler deformasyonu, görsel efekti ve ütopyayı da içinde barındırmaktadırlar. Hareket edildiği sürece değişen, ancak belirli bir noktadan ve açıdan çözümlenebilen anamorfik çalışmalarda gerçeği ve anlamı keşfetme yolunda, seyirci kompozisyonun parçası haline gelmekte ve bu sayede bazı interaktif durumlar da gerçekleşmektedir.</p><p>Bu araştırma, anamorfoz tekniğinin biçemine ve tarihsel süreçte gelişimine genel bir bakış ile birlikte; bu tekniği ışık, renk, doku, kütle, mekân, uzam, espas ve yüzey kavramlarıyla ilişkilendirerek yorumlayan Çağdaş sanatçı Felice Varini’nin ‘yanılsama’ kavramına yaklaşım biçimlerini incelemek ve değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma amacı doğrultusunda, ilk önce Anamorfoz tekniğinin tanımı, çeşitleri, yöntemleri ve gelişim süreci incelenmiş, sonrasında ise Varini’nin ilk bakışta karmaşık parçalara sahipmiş gibi algılanan ve aynı zamanda mekân algısını manipüle eden çalışmalarından bazı örnekler sunularak izleyici üzerinde yarattığı etki ve yanıltıcı özelliklerine bağlı olarak yorumlama biçimleri ele alınmıştır.</p>

Abstract The beginning of the 21st century is characterized in Romania by the emerging of a new generation of playwrights. Numerous actors or people coming “off the stage” begin to write drama, so that the playwrights become authors of the texts played on the stage. Thus, the playwrights join a trend that is common in Europe, being part of a category named by Bruno Tackels “les écrivains de plateau” - the writers of the stage. Nowadays, we witness a change in the way the young artists view drama - they do not only want to change the way of writing and performing drama, but they also want to change the world they live in. The contemporary performance has gradually lost its specificity by blending itself with visual arts, dance, music, technology, becoming a project. In our modern society the artists do not look for something meant to last forever, so the work of art becomes a continuous work in progress. Therefore, a bridge is being shattered - the bridge between nowadays and posterity.

The study of literature, theatre, cinema, the visual arts, television, and music has undergone an evolution that has produced a rupture with traditional notions of unity, authority, and space/time. This rupture has meant the emergence of a new theoretical discourse and new ways of studying the works that make up the new notion of the literary. In this article, I use Edward S. Casey’s notion of re-implacement to refer to the way in which places, as well as the events that occur within them, are assimilated, processed, and represented by artistic media that combine different techniques and disciplines. From this starting point, I analyze a number of texts that can be defined as forming part of a cyberculture in which the spectator-reader encounters a rich terminological vocabulary that corresponds to concepts such as multimedia, transmedia, intermedia, hypermedia, and postmedia.

This chapter develops an accurate understanding for project-based learning approach by examining the definitions, theoretical foundations, and historical process of the approach. It also aimed to, within the framework of this understanding, present the implementation stages and effectiveness of the approach as well as its interaction with the other methods in recent years. In this context, first, different definitions of project-based learning were examined, and then how it evolved into an approach from a concept in its historical development process was addressed. Implementation stages of project-based learning were reported as presented by different researchers. The standards set out due to the diversity experienced in implementation were associated with these steps.

At a time when the Union between Scotland and England is once again under the spotlight, Remembering the Past in Nineteenth-Century Scotland examines the way in which Scotland’s national heroes were once remembered as champions of both Scottish and British patriotism. Whereas 19th-century Scotland is popularly depicted as a mire of sentimental Jacobitism and kow-towing unionism, this book shows how Scotland’s national heroes were once the embodiment of a consistent, expressive and robust view of Scottish nationality. Whether celebrating the legacy of William Wallace and Robert Bruce, the reformer John Knox, the Covenanters, 19th-century Scots rooted their national heroes in a Presbyterian and unionist view of Scotland’s past. Examined through the prism of commemoration, this book uncovers collective memories of Scotland’s past entirely opposed to 21st-century assumptions of medieval proto-nationalism and Calvinist misery. Detailed studies of 19th-century commemoration of Scotland’s national heroes Uncovers an all but forgotten interpretation of these ‘great Scots’ Shines a new light on the mindset of nineteenth-century Scottish national identity as being comfortably Scottish and British Overturns the prevailing view of Victorian Scottishness as parochial, sentimental tartanry

AbstractIndigenous artists are introducing traditional knowledge practices to the contemporary art world. This article discusses the work of selected Indigenous artists and relays their contribution towards changing art discourses and understandings of Indigenous knowledge. Anishinaabe artist Norval Morrisseau led the way by introducing ancient mythos; the gifted Carl Beam enlarged his oeuvre with ancient building practices; Peter Clair connected traditional Mi'kmaq craft and colonial influence in contemporary basketry; and Edward Poitras brought to life the cultural hero Coyote. More recently, Beau Dick has surprised international art audiences with his masks; Christi Belcourt’s studies of medicinal plants take on new meaning in paintings; Bonnie Devine creates stories around canoes and baskets; Adrian Stimson performs the trickster/ruse myth in the guise of a two-spirited character; and Lisa Myers’s work with the communal sharing of food typifies a younger generation of artists re-engaging with traditional knowledge.

Those who kindly invited me to give this lecture showed some resistance to its sub-title. I insisted on ‘a view from the sidelines’ because I wished to emphasize that my remarks would be based on my own presence at the events of 1947 and confined to those matters with which I had direct acquaintance. This is still largely true: mine is in part an undisguisedly personal tale. But the matter is rather more complicated. For one thing, while I was certainly a spectator I was also able for a couple of months in 1947 to scamper on to a segment of New Delhi's field of fateful play, even to get a touch or two of the ball, before returning to my place on the terraces. But for the purpose of this lecture I could not content myself with recollections; I have, as it were, examined the slow re-plays of the television cameras. In trying to match my memories, diaries and letters from 1947 with the files at India Office Records, there have, I confess, been phases of bewilderment on the way to such modest and provisional enlightenment as I can offer. It is not simply that in the 34 years the world has moved on, the perspective has changed; that is a problem which the historian's whole skill is devoted to overcome. The difficulty is aggravated when the spectator cum minor actor in the drama of yesteryear puts on the historian's robe; for not only the world but he with it has changed.

Abstract: The shaman figure is most often associated with primitive communities, inhabiting, among others Siberia. The shaman plays one of the most important roles in them - he is an intermediary between the world of people and the world of spirits. Responds to, among others for the safe passage of souls to the other side and protects her from evil spirits. However, is there room for representatives of this institution in contemporary Polish popular literature? How would they find themselves in the 21st century? The article aims to show the interpretation of the shaman on the example of Ida Brzezińska, the heroine of the books of Martyna Raduchowska. I intend to introduce the role and functions of the „shaman from the dead”, juxtaposing the way Ida works (including reading sleepy margins from a rather unusual dream catcher, carrying out souls and the consequences that await in the event of failure or making contact with the dead) with the methods described by scholars shamans. The purpose of the work is to show how much Raduchowska tried to adapt shamanism in her work by modernizing it, and how many elements she added from herself to make the story more attractive.
