荒诞性背后的严肃性－－对尤奈斯库戏剧风格的再认识

尤奈斯库的戏剧以荒诞的形式和荒诞的内容而称，然而在其荒诞风格的背后却隐藏着一个十分严肃的主题。在他的剧本里，作为交际工具的语言变成了抽象的公式或空洞的口号，夸张成了他表现荒诞的一个重要手段。他的创作手法不是现实主义胜似现实主义。荒诞的形式与荒诞的内容有机结合是戏剧创作上的一个创举。同时也是对我们自身命运进行深刻认识和思考的一种全新表达。

Working with ‘necessary contradictions’: a social realist meta-analysis of an academic development programme review

This article addresses the problem of making programme evaluation sufficiently meaningful and cognisant of context such that practitioners, in this case of academic development, can gain new understandings of their situation in order to improve their practice. In order to do this, the paper uses Archer's morphogenetic framework to deepen the methodology of academic review on an academic development programme. The theory enables a richer understanding of how the programme developed within particular national and institutional situational logics and of the relationships between structure, culture and agency.

Helping Muslim boys succeed: the case for history education

Recent research suggests that Muslim boys have become the ‘New Folk Devils’ of British education, who are characterised by resistance to formal education, especially at secondary level, and under-achievement. Since the 1990s, British Muslim boys would appear to have become increasingly alienated from compulsory schooling, especially in the humanities subjects which lack obvious instrumental value.

This mixed-methods study of the performance of 295 secondary school British Muslim boys in their compulsory school history provides evidence which interrupts this narrative of the academic under-achievement and educational dis-engagement of Muslim boys, especially in the humanities subjects. When viewed through the prism of a laminated, non-reductive model of educational success, this indicative sample of British Muslim boys could be considered to have had significant success at a traditional humanities subject such as history intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, instrumentally and civically.

This paper therefore proposes that history can provide a vital meaning-making tool to generate the success of Muslim boys in a variety of significant dimensions both in and out of school. It suggests how history can be more fully and effectively harnessed by teachers, parents and policy-planners to encourage internal integration and external social engagement in British Muslim pupils.
