The intertextual Moriarty: an analysis of Kim Newman’s professor Moriarty: The Hound of the D’Urbervilles
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Bligzna, Birgie; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
Kim Newman’s take on Arthur Conan Doyle’s well-known Sherlock Holmes (1887-1927) canon in the form of the novel Professor Moriarty: The Hound of the D’Urbervilles (2011) is a brilliant view into the world of pastiches and how they tend to stand out in the vast adaptation genre. Newman, however, does not stop at simply pastiching Doyle, but also intertextually combines the Victorian England with various other literary narratives from around the same period. Through these intertextual practices, Newman demonstrates the diverse ways and degrees to which intertextuality can shape narrative recreations, showing how it enriches the already inventive pastiche genre. This thesis examines how Kim Newman’s novel functions within the pastiche genre, focusing on the various ways intertextuality manifests itself within the narrative, and the creative strategies Newman employs in its use. The introduction of the thesis will provide background information on the novel and the reasoning behind its selection. The literature review will discuss the key concepts of adaptation, pastiche and intertextuality relevant to the thesis, followed by an overview of the current discourse surrounding Sherlock Holmes adaptations and pastiche. The second chapter will present an in-depth analysis of the novel’s genre, along with a selection of Newman’s short stories, focusing on the examples of intertextuality present within them. Keywords: pastiche, intertextuality, Sherlock Holmes adaptations, James Moriaty

Bodies, space, and affective entanglement in The Taverner Novels by Mary Butts
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Aruste, Liisbet; Marling, Raili, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
This thesis examines how affect circulates between body and space in Mary Butts’ The Taverner Novels, thereby contributing to scholarship on modernist spatial aesthetics and the recovery of modernist women’s writing. The thesis consists of an introduction, two core chapters, and a conclusion. The introduction situates Mary Butts within modernist literary studies and introduces The Taverner Novels as affective and spatially dynamic text. The first core chapter introduces the author in the context of modernism, gives an overview of previous research, and establishes the theoretical framework of affect, transcorporeality, and literary space studies for the following analysis. The second core chapter provides an attentive reading of spaces in The Taverner Novels. The analysis identifies affective moments through textual and contextual details that blur the line between body and space. The spaces in focus are Dorset nature, the literary spaces surrounding it, the urban environments of Paris and London, and finally bodily spatiality through movement, dancing and water. The conclusion presents the findings of the thesis and suggests further possible research relevant to the topic and author. Keywords: modernist literature, affect, space, transcorporeality, Mary Butts

“You are probably alone”: analysing the intimacy of second-person elements in horror fiction podcasts on the example of Within the Wires
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Aleksin, Alistair Theodore; Marling, Raili, juhendaja; Arnavas, Francesca, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
Fiction podcasting is a form of narrative storytelling that has been rapidly growing over the course of the 21st century. It has spread over many genres, with horror fiction podcasting in particular being one of the fastest-growing subgenres of horror. Despite that, the medium is under-researched. The following thesis deals with second-person narration in a psychological horror podcast, Within the Wires. In the introduction, a brief overview of second-person narration and the research surrounding it is given. The literature review provides an overview of how podcasting as a medium emerged and the way it approaches storytelling. The empirical analysis is conducted with the help of the embodied narratology framework, which takes into account people’s embodied responses. In the conclusion, the findings of the thesis are summarised and the aims reiterated. Keywords: second-person narration, embodied narratology, fiction podcasts, horror

ENG: designing and piloting speaking tasks to foster willingness to communicate in a year 8 EFL class
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Aiupov, Stanislav; Sigus, Anneli, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
This thesis explores the design and piloting of speaking tasks intended to foster willingness to communicate among Year 8 EFL learners (n=3). The study applied a Task-Supported Language Teaching approach and implemented six speaking tasks during regular English lessons over a two-week period in April 2026. Data were collected through classroom observations using a structured observation checklist and learners’ feedback form. The findings suggest that speaking tasks may gradually encourage learners’ oral participation despite challenges related to hesitation, confidence, and limited experience with peer interaction. The study also highlights the importance of scaffolding and task structure in supporting learners’ participation. Keywords: Willingness to Communicate; speaking tasks; Task-Supported Language Teaching; Action Research; materials development

Decolonizing the female Inuit voice in Mini Aodla Freeman’s Life Among the Qallunaat
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Udras, Anna; Rein, Eva, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
Qallunaat to reclaim Indigenous female identity. The main purpose of this thesis is to examine how Freeman’s autobiographical writing challenges qallunaat assumptions and asserts Inuit female voice. The thesis consists of an introduction, two main chapters and a conclusion. The introduction outlines the historical and literary background of the topic. It also introduces Mini Aodla Freeman and her book and presents the main aim of the thesis. The literature review establishes that autobiography is not a neutral genre but a politically shaped form, and that Indigenous life writing constructs identity relationally rather than through Western ideal of individual self-expression. It also shows that female Inuit voices have been comparatively underrepresented in scholarly analysis, and that the editorial history of the 2015 restored edition is central to any reading of the text. The close reading in Chapter 2 shows that Freeman reclaims Indigenous female identity in two main ways. First, through scenes of cultural encounter, she exposes qallunaat ignorance and paternalism while repositioning Inuit experience as the more reliable ground for understanding. Second, through memory, childhood, schooling and everyday female experience, she shows that identity in the text is formed through care and relational responsibility. Overall, the thesis argues that Life Among the Qallunaat functions both as personal narrative and as cultural preservation, asserting Indigenous female voice through careful observation, silence, memory and the narration of ordinary life. Key words: Mini Aodla Freeman, Indigenous life writing, Inuit literature, autobiography, female identity, decolonization

The symbolism of nature as a mirror of the protagonist’s and Canadian identity in Margaret Atwood’s Surfacing
(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Totšonaja, Dajana; Rein, Eva, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakond
The present thesis examines nature as a mirror of both the protagonist’s and Canada’s identity in the 1960s in Margaret Atwood’s Surfacing. The aim of this work is to analyze the symbolism of the forest, animal imagery, particularly fish and heron, and the lake, showing how these elements reflect the heroine’s changing perception of herself and her homeland. The thesis consists of an introduction, two main chapters, and a conclusion. The introduction provides a brief summary of the novel, the aim of the study, and the chosen methodology. The first chapter is a literature review that establishes the theoretical framework by discussing key ecocritical concepts, their relevance to Canadian literature, and previous interpretations of Surfacing. The second chapter analyzes the chosen symbols and their connection to personal and national identity. The conclusion summarizes the main findings of the thesis. Keywords: Surfacing, ecocriticism, personal identity, national identity, symbolism.
