Alienation in Adolescence in J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye
...Show More Authors

Alienation is a feeling that inflicts people especially adolescents due to certain reasons. As they grow up, adolescents tend to face certain psychological disturbances. They somehow feel indifferent to their surroundings and hence it would be quite hard for them to express their notions in the reality world they live in. So they either rebel against society and become aggressive members or they might console themselves in an alienated world that they create in their minds.

   This paper depicts J.D. Salinger's (1919-2010) novel The Catcher in the Rye where its protagonist, Holden Caulfield, is an adolescent who feels there is no linkage or connection with the traits of his society. He is a teenager who portrays his innermost concerns and disillusionment toward a world that he feels unable to fit in. He likes to take decisive actions but feels helpless since his resolutions are thwarted by certain factors of life, e.g., parents, customs and social codes. He feels distant in his relationships with others and  absolutely baffled about the uncertainty of his future. Holden Caulfield clings to the innocence of the childhood world and feels total empathy toward children because they still have not been corrupted and shaped according to the mores of society. 

    Holden realizes that growing up, the maturing process, indicates that he should assume responsibility in a world where he thinks only superficial and insignificant issues occur. He like many others seems to have difficulty fitting into a world that seems disintegrated and filled with defacement. Holden is caught in the disturbed transition of his life-from the state of childhood into adulthood. He thus faces anxiety and alienation and wants to detach himself from all the false values surrounding him.

    Holden's therapy at the hospital after his nervous collapse due to his alienation, makes him realize that life consists of limitless ambiguities. It is a mixture of the good and the bad. Hence, part of Holden's therapy is his realization that he cannot remove all the impurity and retrogression, but instead he must become part of the society that he rejects. His inference, by the end of the novel, is that life's mystery can only be solved and perceived if one fathoms the mistakes of others through the love and understanding of mankind.

A legal discourse in the Qur’an and Sunnah is almost devoid of the use of one of the general formulas, and due to its frequent rotation in the tongue of the legislator, the formulas may overlap their members in apparently contradictory provisions, which makes the individual from the general members appear to the beholder to be covered by two contradictory provisions, and this research came to present what might happen to him The legal text interpreter of weighting between the two opposing texts is the strength of the generality that is established by the generality formula, so the two strongest formulas in the inclusion of its members outweigh the weaker of them and precede them, and the research decided that the formulas vary

The Poetics of Mourning and the American Elegy in Walt Whitman's "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd"
...Show More Authors

Walt Whitman adds a poetic twist to the relationship of man’s body, soul with the universe. His inspiration in writing his elegy, "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd," draws on aesthetico-political resources. Major amongst these is his leaning towards the American Transcendentalist idea of the "Over-Soul".  The basic topoi in his poems is thus his identification of nature with the soul of man. The idea of the Over-Soul sheds light on the three stages of human loss: suffering, despair, and compensation. Whitman witnessed two political events, the outbreak of the civil war and Abraham Lincoln's death, which were of a particular importance to his life and work: they helped him shape a form and thematic concerns of his own. Buil

¬The Role of the European Union in Conflicts Resolution in the Eastern Neighborhood: Selected Models
...Show More Authors

The launch of the EU’s Eastern Partnership in 2009 intended to signal a new, elevated level of EU engagement with its Eastern neighborhood. Yet there remain several long-simmering and potentially destabilizing conflicts in the region, with which EU engagement thus far has been sporadic at best. The Union’s use of its Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP) in the region and to help solve these disputes has been particularly ad hoc and inconsistent, wracked by inter-institutional incoherence and undermined by Member States’ inability to agree on a broad strategic vision for engagement with the area.

The three CSDP missions deployed to the region thus far have all suffered from this incoherence to various extents. In particu
