Our thesis is that new media have to do with illusion, basically with illusion, and only derivatively with imagination; on the contrary, the field of literature has to do with imagination, strictly with imagination, not with illusion at all. If it is so, something must be wrong with the pretence of narratology, which has literature as its basic referent, to be the adequate theoretical frame in order to understand every cultural phenomenon, especially in the case of new media. We have to insist on the distinction between illusion and imagination. In fact, most literary theorists do not bear in mind such distinction; it tends to completely disappear under the general title ＂fiction.＂ To be sure, it is usually said of cinema that it is fiction, like literature, but cinema is much more than fiction, it is illusion, even if it is the illusion of a story.展开更多

This paper aims to disclose how nowadays the family helps the child to develop adaptation instruments which would help to adapt to the society in a micromacro environment, to show what helps the child to become a member of a social group, of the society, what adaptation problems arise during the childhood. Problems of school adaptation of the first-formers have not been properly assessed and analysed so far, though they foresee the future. No proper attention has been paid to the development of the harmonious personality during the pre-school period and to the correction of their adaptation during the firstschool year. The paper deals with the child＇s experiences of the pre-school period as the factor influencing school adaptation in the first form. Variety and quality of children＇s experiences are directly related and most of all depend on the family of the spiritual institution, so its impact is the strongest in terms of the development of the child＇s personality. The goal is to disclose the importance of selfdevelopment in childhood, which determines future success. The object is selfdevelopment during childhood today in the Lithuania. Methods of investigation are： the analysis of pedagogical, psychological, philosophical literature; the analysis of empiri.cal researches and statistic data; and the method of observation. The hypothesis is： The cause of the firstformers＇ school adaptation difficulties incompletely realised adaptation potential during the preschool period.展开更多

Trans- lations into Chinese and Korean of A la recherche du temps perdu are ongoing. The Gallica online library of France＇s Bibliothbque nationale makes the notebooks from which Proust＇s novel emerged between 1908 and 1922 digitally accessible any- where in the world. It is well known that Proust has been adapted to graphic novel format, individual volumes of his novel have been adapted for cinema, inspired ballet and musical theatre and his characters＇ lives have fuelled works of fiction by contemporary creative writers. This paper considers a very recent instance of Proust＇s reception and adaptation： ＂Works in Fiber, Paper and Proust＂ created by the critic and theorist Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick （1950-2009） and first exhibited at Harvard University in 2005. These remarkable objects--including what Sedgwick calls an ＂accordion-book＂ and a ＂loom-book＂--give a woven, layered physicality to Proust＇s words and remobilise them in ways that force us to reconfigure our understanding of the text-reader relation. Sedgwick＇s visual, textile artworks are the products of creative, adaptive practices undertaken as a sort of therapy that was instrumental in her coming to terms with the terminal cancer diagnosis she received in 1996. My paper explores Sedgwick＇s adaptive practice and interrogates the in- sights their challenging hybridity offers us into the ongoing transmission of Proust＇s work.展开更多
