| Description: |
Feuilleton is the genre that allows for much freedom as far as its content,
composition and style are concerned; the text is hybrid which means that it makes
use of different genre structures, both journalistic and literary ones.
The characteristic of a column is also the lack of the group of fixed features
being in strong structural relation. The thematic domain is one of the three basic
and essential elements of a speech genre “column”.
This component, along with its composition and stylistics,
constitutes a speech genre according to the speech genre theory by Bakhtin.
Thematic domain of a column tends to be always up-to-date,
focusing specifically on culture matters and social and moral issues.
An accented and active role of a columnist as the subject of the narration
is also very important characteristic of this genre.
The tone a column is written in is usually reflexive,
humorous, ironic and above all very subjective
in drawing conclusions, assessments
and comments on a particular subject.
In its composition a column uses very often digressive bonds
with other parts and components of the text proper.
Except for the use of numerous associations,
there can be different types of fable-like compositions,
logical- discursive and dramatic ones found
in the internal structure of a column.
The style of this kind of publication, contrary to the style
of most journalistic publications, is very close to literary.
Its characteristic feature is lightness and wit,
that is shown by play on words, parody,
paradox and humorous hyperboles.
The vocabulary that is usually used is not neutral,
and strongly emotionally loaded words and phrases prevail. |

Turkeys are such strange birds. Ugly-beautiful,
and regal-ridiculous. Have you ever seen one flying wild?
It’s like a giant feathered cannonball shot through the woods.
Hilarious and shocking. We saw wild turkeys in Osyka Springs,
Mississippi when we used to go camping there. They are huge!
I feel bad about it, but I’m going to eat one today. Sorry Mr. Turkey!
Shooting Stars + Seedpods
At last, I am rousing myself from my haze of hiding
in the tiny seed-pod cave. I have been handed a giant
mug of strong coffee (oh dear!) and am experimenting
with not taking painkillers with the aim of actually
accomplishing something for the first time in days.

Doll Hospital
Okay so, on this coming Monday, the 16th of November,
I will be going into the hospital to have surgery to remove
a large ovarian cyst. This has all happened quite quickly,
so I’m still processing a lot of information and emotion
and have been having a pretty hard time knowing how
to deal with it. I’m very blessed in that I have an incredible
golden web of support in my friends and family. I am also
enormously lucky because I was able to qualify for a program
that made it possible for me to have a medical procedure done
that would normally cost around $25,000. I, like many of my friends,
do not have health insurance.
807 Esplanade
(Photographer unknown)
I became friendly with the ghosts of 807 Esplanade
not long after I moved into the building. The house
held so much history, it would seem strange if it
weren’t haunted at least by a few souls. The place
was huge, and there was some heavy energy
out back by the the former slave quarter apartments
where the drunks and dealers and recluses made
their sad lairs in little garrets connected
Ectoplasmic Honey
Have you ever seen a ghost? Have you ever felt one?
Visual apparitions are rare. I waited my whole life to see a clear one.
I’ve always noticed the amorphous, ephemeral shades:
thin wispy white ones, bulbous black blobby ones, and
the darting quick grey cat ones. The human form eluded me,
until I moved to New Orleans. I hope to tell some of those stories
in the next installment. I wish I understood more about them.
Once again, I’m sor
