The author, using autoethnography, shows several images of academic life that break the community and are irritating. He tries to show the atmosphere that hinders the development of critical thought and socially committed attitude. At the same time, by reference to the concept of the camp, present in the works of Agamben and the state of exception as well as a sovereign from Schmitt writing, the author introduces the metaphor of “the camp made of ivory”, as a specific form of empowerment of employees and real forms of power that are hidden either in a formal academic democracy or community demands or “peer systems.” “The camp is the space that opens up when the state of exception starts to become the rule” (Agamben, 2008, p. 230). The functioning of the university as the camp made of ivory effectively blocks the appearance of divine wrath, which could fill the campers. Emphasizing the destructive trends in the academy grew out of concern for the unfulfilled promise of friendship, and the advocate for the critical, involved function of science and the university.

The article is ispired by the pioneering book Allotopie by Krzysztof M. Maj, which describes the feeling of immersion in fictional world evoked by fantasy fiction. Maj chooses the immersion strategy of reception over the predominant mimetic interpretation, which he sees as incomplete in that it omits the fundamental for allotopy act of world creation. Immersion reflects the idiosyncrasy of creation and genre reception. Moreover, Maj’s book does not fail to address the traditional questions about the value of fantasy fiction.

This paper explores the attitudes of teachers towards the (non) sexist content of didactic materials, and the influence of hidden curricula in the transmission of ideologies in the Spanish L2 classroom. The study is based on the information gathered through an anonymous e-survey distributed to 20 current and former Spanish teachers at the Department of Iberian Studies, University of Belgrade. The questions in the survey addressed the gender ideology of the teachers and the ways they deal with gender stereotypes in textbooks they use in the classroom. A qualitative analysis of their responses, carried out in the theoretical frame of Critical Applied Linguistics, confirms the hypothesis that the treatment of gender stereotypes in the classroom depends not only on the didactic material, but also on teachers’ attitudes and values, which can have an important impact on the transmission of ideas and ideologies in learning process.
