Abstract

The document provides synopses of three articles published in the Japanese Number in 2024. The first article analyzes Hamlet's use of scandalous language in the context of satirical comedy and verse libel in London during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The second article explores the symbolism of Winston's varicose ulcer in George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, linking it to themes of rebellion and political control. The third article delves into J.D. Salinger's use of the motif of Medusa's head in his Glass Family stories to examine societal norms, stigma, and self-conscious narration during the Cold War era.
