- Abstract
Problem statement: Carnivals are popular and folk festivals that are in contrast with formal and dry culture. In the carnival atmosphere, social classes are overthrown. Carnival challenges the laws and values of society by using tools such as criticism, satire, ridicule, and irony. Carnival stands in opposition to formal culture, disrupting the monolithic atmosphere and creating a polyphonic community with diverse conversations. Mikhail Bakhtin (1895-1975), an important theorist of the twentieth century in the field of literary criticism, with the theory of colloquial logic, created a new atmosphere in various fields, including literature. One of the main branches of this theory is carnival. The components of Bakhtin Carnival can also be examined in the category of drama. In the present study, the author intends to critique the delightful Iranian plays in the late Safavid and Qajar periods, citing evidence and examples, based on the ideas of the Bakhtin Carnival. Research objective: The present study attempts to examine the relationship between this type of play with Bakhtin’s view s on carnival and the possibility of applying Bakhtin carnival theory in these plays by examining Iranian happy plays and structural and content analysis of these plays. Research method: This study is descriptive-analytical. In this research, valid Iranian and non-Iranian sources (in the form of books, articles, notes, and conversations with experts in two categories of text and performance) were used. Conclusion: Delightful performances in Iran a space as a carnival so that people, regardless of social class, come together and criticize the existing space in the official space of society with fun and happiness together. In freedom and equality, real dialogue is formed and the general public is liberated and calmed in a short period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines what roles citizen news podcasts of South Korea play, based on two unique concepts—carnivalism and engaging journalism. To this end, the current study content analysed the content of 11 citizen news podcasts that are most popular in this country and conducted interviews with 10 professional journalists. The findings reveal that through the use of comedic techniques such as humour, parody, and satire, the discourse of citizen podcasts transgresses existing social and cultural hierarchies and subverts a range of authoritative discourses by mainstream media. The analysis also finds that the discourse in citizen news podcasts takes on the nature of engaging journalism, which motivates ordinary individuals who are left largely disillusioned from mainstream journalism to engage in elite-challenging political action. Professional journalists admitted that citizen news podcasts provide an opportunity to re-evaluate the journalism norms and practices of South Korea.

COMPARATIVE studies , *SOCIAL skills , *TECHNOLOGY , *FIELD research - Abstract
Big events provide a lucrative field for introducing and testing new technology, where technologically mediated and real-life social behavior can be studied simultaneously. However, these events often bring about a change in social norms and the use of technology that challenges the traditional conceptions of field research conducted in human–computer interaction. This paper discusses field studies in, what we call, carnivalistic settings that involve social norms distinct from everyday settings. We compare our experiences from a carnivalistic field research with previous literature to discuss how to pragmatically and ethically address the challenges of unpredictable carnivalistic settings. We argue that the main challenge is to find a balance between the carnivalistic environment and the scientific goals of a field trial. We believe that explicit discussion about the unique challenges is crucial to design viable field evaluations in exceptional conditions, promoting an awareness of what can be achieved and which hurdles will have to be crossed.

La sátira se expresó genuinamente como la potencia disruptiva e irritante contra el status quo de la sociedad medieval y renacentista. Un elemento retorico y poético único, cargado de expresiones criticas de talante político, moral y pedagógico, asociados a una visión hedonista e impulsiva de la vitalidad. Por consecuencia, relacionada al sentido común y feliz del vulgo, la plebe "estulta" o "necia" frente a la ascética, la reflexión y la vivencia mortificada y racionalista del sabio o erudito solitario. Una bíblica sentencia lo ilustra: Stultorum infinitus est numerus ("El número de los necios es infinito"). La sátira nos presenta el mundo al revés, la sociedad boca abajo, el mundo revolucionado, la felicidad como necedad. En fin, nos muestra otra perspectiva en la que el placer y la expresión hedonista del cuerpo tienen su lugar privilegiado frente a la regla y la normativa moral monástica y eclesiástica. Los escritos Elogio de la Locura de Erasmo de Rotterdam y Gargantúa y Pantagruel de François Rabelais (siglo XVI), marcan antecedentes importantes de la sátira (y su derivación grotesca) en la filosofía y en la literatura, en donde se expresa en la primera obra una recuperación de la filosofía epicúrea y en la segunda el hedonismo extremo en su carácter grotesco. El fin de nuestro trabajo es indicar la visión carnavalesca- hedonista y la crítica moral que se expresan en tales obras. Satire was genuinely expressed as the disruptive and irritating power against the status quo of medieval and Renaissance society. A unique rhetorical and poetic element, loaded with critical expressions of a political, moral and pedagogical nature, associated with a hedonistic and impulsive vision of vitality. Consequently, related to the common and happy sense of the vulgar, the plebe "estulta" or "foolish" in front of the ascetic, the reflection and the mortified and rationalistic experience of the wise or solitary scholar. A biblical sentence illustrates it: Stultorum infinitus est numerus ("The number of fools is infinite"). Satire presents the world upside down, society upside down, the world revolutionized, happiness as foolishness. Finally, it shows us another perspective in which the pleasure and the hedonistic expression of the body have their privileged place in front of the rule and the monastic and ecclesiastical moral regulations. The writings Praise of the Madness of Erasmus of Rotterdam and Gargantúa and Pantagruel by François Rabelais (sixteenth century), mark important antecedents of satire (and its grotesque derivation) in philosophy and literature, where it is expressed in the first work a recovery of the epicurean philosophy and in the second the extreme hedonism in its grotesque character. The aim of our work is to indicate the carnivalesque-hedonistic vision and moral criticism expressed in such works.

9. The End of Carnivalism, or The Making of the Corpus Lucianeum

Hafner, Markus and Hafner, Markus
- Abstract
In a key passage for the understanding of Lucian’s work, the Fisherman 25– 27, the philosopher Diogenes of Sinope complains that Parrhesiades, a Lucianlike authorial figure, mocks philosophers not within the fixed boundaries of a carnivalesque festival, as Old Comedy used to do, and to which Lucian’s work is otherwise highly indebted, but by means of his constantly published writings. This statement is even more relevant, since the Fisherman belongs to a group of texts which show clear cross-references to other writings within the corpus (such as Essays in Portraiture Defended, Apology, and The Runaways). By creating indirect authorial commentaries and intratextual references throughout his œuvre—a hidden (auto)biobibliography, as it were—, Lucian thus reinforces the idea of an organic literary work and the coherency of his corpus which is—notwithstanding its thematic variatio—well-publicized and far away from carnivalesque exceptionality. In this way, the aesthetics of perpetual transgression is in a unique way related to the construction of authorial self-referentiality in Lucian’s satires., En un pasaje clave para entender la obra de Luciano, Piscator 25–27, el filósofo Diógenes de Sinope se queja de que Parresíades, una figura de autoría parecida a Luciano, no se burla de los filósofos dentro de los límites carnavalescos del festival, como lo hacía la Comedia Vieja, a la que tanto debe la obra de Luciano, sino mediante constantes publicaciones de escritos. Esta afirmación adquiere aún mayor importancia por el hecho de que el Piscator pertenece a un grupo de textos que muestra evidentes referencias cruzadas a otros escritos del corpus (como Pro imaginibus, Apologia o Fugitivi). Al crear indirectamente comentarios de autoría y referencias intertextuales a través de su obra ‘multitemática’ – por así decir, una (auto)bibliobiografía escondida –, Luciano refuerza la idea de una obra literaria orgánica y un corpus coherente que se encuentra – a pesar de la variatio temática – bien divulgado y lejos de la excepcionalidad carnavalesca. Así, la estética de la trasgresión perpetua está relacionada de manera única con la construcción de la auto-referencialidad como autor en las sátiras de Luciano.

Satire was genuinely expressed as the disruptive and irritating power against the status quo of medieval and Renaissance society. A unique rhetorical and poetic element, loaded with critical expressions of a political, moral and pedagogical nature, associated with a hedonistic and impulsive vision of vitality.

U radu se analizira roman Ranka Marinkovića, Kiklop, pri čemu je naglašen psihoanalitički pristup istom. Sam rad podijeljen je u tri dijela, a svaki taj pojedinačni dio sačinjava posebnu zatvorenu strukturu koja sa svakog gledišta čini jedan zasebnu, samostalnu cjelinu. Dok se u prvom dijelu opisuje sama struktura romana i donosi njegovo skriveno značenje, druga dva dijela nadovezuju se na njega, samo kroz psihoanalitičku recepciju i interpretaciju romana. Tako se u drugom dijelu iznosi popis likova, ali kroz prizmu njihove dubinske važnosti za roman kao i kroz njihovu interakciju s glavnim likom Melkiorom Tresićem. Dokazuje se i važnost samih ženskih likova kroz roman, čija je važnost u psihoanalitičkoj interpretaciji neupitna. Sve tvrdnje potkrijepljene su odgovarajućim primjerima iz knjige. Treći dio donosi dublji uvid u psihoanalitički značaj pa se tako izdvajaju tvrdnje Sigmunda Freuda i Carla Gustava Junga, dokazujući pritom što je to što pojedine odrednice romana vezuje uz psihoanalitičke obrasce., The study analyzes the novel by Ranko Marinković, Kiklop, concetrating especially on its psychoanalytic interpretation. The work itself is divided into three different parts, where every part could be isolated in the hermetic structure which, from each point of view, could be easily interpreted as a separate, independent entity. While in the first part is discribed the structure of the novel and its hidden meaning, the other two parts of the study, remaining connected to the first part, bring and add the psychoanalytic reception and interpretation of the novel. Thus in the second part there is a list of all most important characters of the novel, but the accent is on their importance for the novel itself, and on their interactions with the main character, Melkior Tresić. This parts includes also importance of feminine characters, which is unquestionable in the psychoanalytic studies. All the definitions written in the study are supported by corresponding citations from the novel. Third part brings a deeper view of the psychoanalytic perspective, showing it regarding the most important definitions of Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung, proving at the same time the connection of the novel with the psychoanalytic patterns.

- Abstract
Varje enskild bild är underordnad helhetens innebörd - Om det offentliga rummet, karnevalen och aktivismen i Anarkrew: an anti-archives As a part of the Gothenburg International Biennial for Contemporary Art (GIBCA), the art exhibition Anarkrew: an anti-archives examines Gothenburg carnival and counter culture spirit. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how notions of public space take place in the exhibition. This is done by using a theoretical framework consisting of theories by Mikhail Bakhtin, Henri Lefebvre and Judith Butler. Using discourse analysis I have concluded the exhibition is marked by a political discourse based on its intimate relationship to political activism and anarchist ideology. The thesis recognizes that ideas about public space are expressed through this intimate relationship, but also how some specific art works use their space. Furthermore, since the exhibition puts together ideas about carnivalesque expression and leftwing political ideology, the exhibition also recognizes the carnival as a potential form of political activism. Anarkrew: an anti-archives is thus constituted by the space surrounding the exhibition, but it also constitutes new meanings of that space in the way the exhibition uses it to display ideas about carnivalism, political activism and spatial ideologies.
