Classical Hollywood Cinema and Post-Classical Hollywood Cinema; Case Study of Modern and Postmodern Film
Sarah Radulovich
Notions of classical Hollywood film and post-classical Hollywood film belong to distinct eras, traditionally used to signify various elements, specific styles, and approaches.

The golden age of Hollywood lasted up to the late 1960’s, which was primarily characterized by films that were issued by the major Hollywood studios. Although many interpretations of dates...

Claude Monet i njegov utjecaj na umjetnički pokret impresionizma i umjetnost općenito
Tomislav Vulić
1840. godine rađa se Oscar Claude Monet, jedan od osnivača grupe impresionista. U ranim danima pokazuje umjetničku vještinu crtajući karikature. Pejzažist Eugene Boudoin mu predstavlja slikanje na otvorenom, te Monet prihvaća takav izričaj. 1873. godine održana je prva izložba impresionista, na kojoj su sudjelovali, od poznatijih slikara, Monet, Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro i Alfred Sisley, ali i mnogi drugi. Iako nije polučila željeni uspjeh, na toj izložbi su dobili,...
Climate Change and International Distributive Justice
Climate Change and International Distributive Justice
Petra Gašparić
Climate change is the problem we hear about more and more often. We hear about the damages it causes, as well as the discussions about how to deal with those detrimental effects. The problem is of international interest because what causes climate change and its negative effects (usually emissions of waste gases in rich countries) is regularly felt in poor parts of the world. In contrary, in most cases, poor states haven't contributed to climate change harms and don't have enough resources...

Code-switching, English Lexical Items in the Croatian Youth Jargon
Lucija Avsec
In this final thesis we will focus on code-switching among the Croatian youth and the way English has made its way into their everyday vocabulary. This phenomenon has become so frequent and normalised, it is often unnoticed. The reasons Croatian adolescents and young adults switch codes are sociological and psychological. It allows them to be more informal, humorous, and simply true to their identity. Using another language can help people be more honest and comfortable with...

Conceptual Metaphor - the Controversial Case of Embodied Thought
Conceptual Metaphor - the Controversial Case of Embodied Thought
Veljko Vuković
Metaphor has long been a mesmerizing literary phenomenon that attracted attention of literary critics and brought joy and fulfillment to literary hedonists. It shows the writers greatness of talent in presenting the ordinary in an extraordinary artistic fashion, of transforming the plain into the sublime, of overcoming the physical in favor of the transcendent. However, with the discovery of conceptual metaphor within Cognitive Linguistics, scientific community and ordinary people were...

Coping with Distinguishing Features of Different Text Types
Monika Telebar
For the purpose of obtaining a B. A. degree at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Rijeka, I have decided to translate four texts from Croatian into English language.

The reason for this is my wish to tackle different problematic situations, especially the ones that are specific for a certain text type. A short introduction is provided before the translation itself to give the...
