This paper analyzes the literary representations of Dublin and Oslo in the novels of James Joyce, respectively Lars Saabye Christensen. The methodology derives from concepts introduced by Bertrand Westphal in his books on geocriticism, with a special emphasis on the performative nature of literature in relation to space production.

This essay aims to present the most significant approaches Vychodil used for designing stages for Shakespeare plays, and to compare the designs with others, more typical of Vychodil's aesthetic practice. The paper will, therefore, ask the following questions: (i) what demands do Shakespeare's plays make on the designer? and (ii) how does Vychodil, in particular, respond to these requirements? In constructing my argument, I have relied not only on well-known resources and monographs, but I have also used material from the archives of the Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre Research Institute in Columbus, Ohio, which have not hitherto been sufficiently studied by other researchers.

The Palestinian people which is vying for independence amidst its struggle against Israel, has become a divided house both ideologically and territorially, with two rival leaderships contenting for the hearts of their followers. While the Palestinian Authority, which had signed the Oslo Agreement in 1993, has taken its resistance from violence and strives to conclude an agreement for its independence with Israel, and has held under its control, with some Israeli help, the West Bank, the Hamas, which has objected to, and refuted any idea of settling peacefully with Israel, has seized the rule of Gaza and established a radical government which does not recognize the PA’s primacy in Palestinian politics. The decision between those two competing authorities may either decide the fate of the Palestinian people in the years to come, or doom it to insolubility.

The purpose of the paper is to compare the images of Oslo, formerly Kristiania, in two Norwegian novels, Hunger (1890) by Knut Hamsun and Rand (Brink, 1990) by Jan Kjærstad. The analysis is based on the fact that the main characters in both works wander around the Norwegian capital. Following problems are discussed in the paper: the protagonists’ relation to the city and the other, their alienation and similarity with the classical figure of the flâneur. The topography of the city in both novels and the role it plays for the main characters is also shortly described.
