Algerian Students’ Perceptions of Common Ground in Building Intercultural Communication: A Case Study in Hungarian Universities
(Rzeszów University Press, 2025-12) Zerouali, Hiba
In the context of the increasing cultural diversity in Hungary, common ground remains largely unidentified, thereby hindering the development of strategies that create a meaningful intercultural communication between Algerians and Hungarians. The current research investigated how shared experiences, values, and cultural practices are perceived to shape interactions. Drawing on the results of a questionnaire distributed to 40 Algerian individuals studying in Hungary, and through a mixed-method approach, the collected data were treated using SPSS and MAXQDA software. Additionally, via thematic analysis, the study examines instances of cultural convergence and divergence, stereotypes, and practices for overcoming communicative challenges. The findings accentuated the significance of identifying and leveraging shared understanding as a foundation for fostering empathy and mutual respect. However, they ascertained that language barriers are not the main factor affecting intercultural communication virtuosity. Eventually, this research elaborates on the complex interplay between identity and strategy where embracing diversity is a proof of existence of both core and emergent common ground conceptions. To sum up, it provides valuable insights into the cultivation of cross-cultural comprehension across diverse contexts for further discussion.
Migration and Conceptualization: Love and Family among Turkish Residents in Hungary and Türkiye
(Rzeszów University Press, 2025-12) Taşdemir, Nilay Nur
This study examines the conceptual categories of love and family among Turkish residents in Türkiye and Turkish migrants in Hungary in order to explore how migration shapes core cultural concepts. Using a free-listing task with 219 participants, the research identifies both shared cultural foundations and context-specific variations. Contrary to earlier literature that often emphasizes negative or conflictual aspects in Turkish conceptualizations, both groups primarily described love and family in positive terms. Nevertheless, notable differences emerged in the salience of traditional and collectivist elements. These findings indicate that conceptual categories are flexible and responsive to new social and cultural environments, supporting the view of culture as dynamic rather than fixed. The study concludes that migration functions not only as a social and political phenomenon but also as a cognitive process that reorganizes central human concepts.
Life, Death and the Pastoral: Metamodern Sensibilities in Mike McCormack’s Solar Bones
(Rzeszów University Press, 2025-12) Šnircová, Soňa; Sýkorová, Mária Lujza
Mike McCormack’s Solar Bones (2016) is an award-winning Irish novel that highlights the ongoing engagement of contemporary Irish fiction with its rich literary heritage. While its single-sentence, stream-of-consciousness form recalls Joyce, the novel’s thematic rejection of urban modernism aligns it with Oona Frawley’s concept of the Irish pastoral. Marcus, the posthumous narrator, returns as a ghost on All Souls’ Day to reflect on his life through a series of nature-infused memories that draw on both classical and Romantic pastoral traditions. This article argues that Solar Bones participates not only in a “metamodernist” aesthetics (James and Seshagiri, 2010)—through its revival of Joycean formal experiment, but also in “a metamodern structure of feeling,” characterised by the re-emergence of Romantic sensibilities (Vermeulen and van den Akker, 2010). By mapping neoromantic sensibilities in McCormack’s representations of the protagonist’s personal growth—mediated through his reflections on the natural world and his portrayal as a modern-age shepherd—the article posits Solar Bones as a work in which the new structure of feeling manifests primarily as an oscillation between the ordinary and the sublime, order and disorder, life and death, and the finite and infinite.
Motherhood, Disability, and Rebellion: Constructing the Mother in Hobb’s Liveship Traders Trilogy
(Rzeszów University Press, 2025-12) Sršić, Petra
Like many fantasy works, Robin Hobb’s Liveship Traders trilogy is set in a patriarchal society, and the author, among other topics, portrays a variety of women characters and different ways they deal with it. There is limited research on Hobb’s literary opus and feminist readings of the Liveship Traders trilogy are confined to student theses. Therefore, this paper aims to expand and add to the existing corpus of feminist and feminist disability readings by focusing on a character whose portrayal serves as a critique of the patriarchal system and the subordination of women through the intersectionality of gender and disability. The paper portrays how Mother’s disability and gender role intersect to create specific conditions of othering and subordination that lead to her internalization of the role and attempts at rebellion against imposed constraints. Firstly, based on the research of Nancy J. Chodorow, Andrea O’Reilly, Catherine Rottenberg, and Rosemarie Garland-Thomson, a short overview of feminist approaches to motherhood and feminist disability theory is provided. The paper then examines the role of violence, trauma, and naming as elements of identity construction. The chapter dealing with the mother–son relationship shows how Kennit others Mother, and the final chapter talks about Mother’s internalization of motherhood and rebellion against Kennit. The paper concludes that Mother is othered by Kennit due to his perception of her failure as a mother and her disability that allows him to ascertain his power over her and serves as a cautionary tale of the effects patriarchal motherhood and disability can have on women.
When next Wednesday’s meeting is a red-letter day: The effect of red on temporal reasoning
(Rzeszów University Press, 2025-12) Qin, Yutian
Interpretation of the ambiguous statement “Next Wednesday’s meeting has been moved two days” depends on dichotomous metaphorical perspectives on time. The ego-moving perspective, which implies a future-bound movement, renders the meeting postponed to next Friday. Alternatively, the time-moving perspective, which implies a past-bound movement, translates the situation into an earlier occurrence to next Monday. Motor experiences in space and those grounded as such can influence the preferred perspectives on time. Emerging evidence suggests that sensory experiences can likewise exert an impact. Along these lines and focusing on visual perception, this research examined the unexplored effect of color on temporal reasoning. We found that exposure to the word “meeting” styled in red (versus black) font heightened arousal, which in turn reduced perceived temporal distance that maps onto the time-moving perspective, resulting in a Monday interpretation (Experiment 1). We further demonstrated that the strength of the association between red and the time-moving perspective was conditional on levels of arousal (Experiment 2). By documenting the novel contributor of color to the malleability of temporal perspective preferences and the underlying psychological mechanism thereof, our work adds to the literature on color and psychological functioning and underscores the significance of sensory perception in temporal cognition.
