Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakondThe thesis examines the role of spatial environments in James Baldwin’s Giovanni’s Room, arguing that spaces in the novel actively shape the representation of sexuality, identity, and belonging. The thesis consists of an introduction, literature review, analysis, and conclusion. The introduction presents the novel, its context and the central research aim. The literature review defines space and queer space through spatial theory, queer geography, and previous Baldwin scholarship. The analysis focuses on Giovanni’s room, Parisian bars, streets, and spaces of pre-carity and discipline, showing how these environments structure intimacy, concealment, recog-nition, exclusion, and regulation. The conclusion summarises the central findings.

Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakondThis thesis analyses the rhetoric of Donald Trump and Joe Biden in their Inaugural and State of the Union Addresses using the textual dimension of Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) model. The research aims to examine how the two presidents construct representations of “the people” and how their rhetorical strategies differ in vocabulary, grammar, and textual structures. The paper begins with a literature review focusing on presidential rhetoric, studies of Inaugural and State of the Union Addresses, and research on Trump and Biden. The short overview of the methodology presents the questions suggested by Norman Fairclough for the textual level of analysis that serve as the basis for the analysis. The analysis shows that Trump’s speeches are characterised by populist, polarising, and informal language, emotional appeals, repetition, and an “us versus them” narrative. Biden’s rhetoric, in contrast, is more inclusive and unity-oriented, emphasising democracy, collective responsibility, and national healing. The findings also show that both presidents rely strongly on the pronoun “we” to construct collective identity, although the function of this inclusiveness differs ideologically.

Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakondThis thesis examines the use of the epistolary form in Sally Rooney’s 2021 novel Beautiful World, Where Are You, with a focus on email correspondence between the protagonists, Alice and Eileen. It shows how these emails shape the portrayal of emotional intimacy and the construction of selfhood in the novel. It argues that Rooney adapts the traditional letter novel to a digital context, using emails as a narrative device that enables emotional introspection and vulnerability, yet at the same time, produces distance, misinterpretation, and disconnection in interpersonal relationships. The literature review provides an overview of the epistolary tradition, focusing on its connections to intimacy, confession, and women’s writing, as well as previous research on Rooney’s work. The empirical chapter is divided into three sections, focusing on how emails enable emotional honesty and vulnerability, selective self-representation, and digital distance and miscommunication.

S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity in The Chronicles of Narnia series(Tartu Ülikool, 2026) Sõmer, Marta; Rajamäe, Pilvi, juhendaja; Tartu Ülikool. Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakondThe present thesis examines how the theological viewpoints of C. S. Lewis expressed in his apologetical book Mere Christianity manifest themselves in his fantasy series The Chronicles of Narnia. The aim of the thesis is to draw parallels between these works and analyse how Lewis’ theological beliefs may have shaped the world of Narnia. The thesis consists of four parts – an introduction, the literature review, the empirical part and a conclusion. The introduction briefly discusses theological themes in both children’s literature and The Chronicles of Narnia and presents the topics analysed in the thesis. The introduction also includes the aim of the thesis. The literature review provides an overview of prior research done on The Chronicles of Narnia and Christian themes, namely morality, biblical narratives, and the character of Aslan as a Christ-figure. Lewis’ apologetical book Mere Christianity is also discussed. The empirical part analyses The Chronicles of Narnia books from the viewpoint of Lewis’ theological standpoints in Mere Christianity.

Humanitaarteaduste ja kunstide valdkond; Tartu Ülikool. Maailma keelte ja kultuuride instituut; Tartu Ülikool. Anglistika osakondThis thesis investigates the use of contemporary English slang on TikTok and Instagram, comparing these patterns with Estonian upper-secondary school students’ perceptions and self-reported use. The aim was to answer three research questions: How do the frequency and use of selected English slang expressions differ between TikTok and Instagram captions and comments? What structural patterns and discourse functions characterise these expressions in social media discourse? How do Estonian upper-secondary students perceive and report their use of English social media slang, and how does this compare to its use in social media? The study combines a 17,377 token mini-corpus of TikTok and Instagram captions and comments with questionnaire data collected from 110 Estonian upper-secondary students regarding their perceived use of slang. Corpus-based methods were used to analyse frequency patterns, concordances, collocations and discourse functions of selected slang. Questionnaire responses were analysed to compare reported language use with corpus findings. The findings reveal platform-specific differences in slang usage, multifunctional discourse patterns, and a high level of student awareness regarding register differences. Keywords: social media slang, corpus linguistics, TikTok, Instagram, Estonian students
