Paperback. Condizione: New. Dreams is a work that defies conventional categorization; however, one might best capture its unique formal structure by construing it as a series of prose poems or narrative paintings, a starkly modern text inflected by the far older tradition of the medieval dream vision poem. Arthur Symons praised Dreams by saying, "The words seem to chant themselves to a music which we do not hear." Though a work of prophecy, it proceeds with a light touch. The sequence of eleven dreams, loosely interlinked, leaves us to wrestle with our doubts; it takes up thorny questions that challenge a culture right where it may tend to be its proudest. The landscape of the work shifts as it moves among the African savannah, congested late-industrial London, and the olive tree-studded hillsides of Italy. The intersectionality of Schreiner's writing-its concern with gender, sexual orientation, class, nation, and race-makes her a particularly salient voice for today's students. The appendices to this edition provide an accessible representation of Schreiner's key contexts, South African and British as well as American. The introduction provides a biographical overview of a writer wrestling with questions of social justice pertinent to her own era, yet relevant to our contemporary moment.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Wie neu. Gebraucht - Wie neu Ungelesen, vollständig, sehr guter Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -Ausgrenzendes Denken und nationalistisches Denken stehen in einem engen wechselseitigen Zusammenhang mit Kapitalismus und Neoliberalismus. Die mittlerweile schon Jahre andauernde Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise macht dies einmal mehr und in aller Brutalität deutlich: Als Schuldige an der Krise werden immer die Anderen identifiziert sie werden als faul , als unfähig oder als Last beschimpft. Seien es soziale Gruppen innerhalb der europäischen Staaten (wie etwa Migrant_innen, Transferleistungsempfänger innen oder Niedriglöhner innen) oder seien es gleich ganze Länder (wie etwa die südeuropäischen) die nationalistische und ausgrenzende Unterscheidung zwischen einem guten Wir und einem schlechten Sie ist längst zu einem festen Bestandteil der Diskussionen in Medien und Politik geworden. Der Sammelband Nation Ausgrenzung Krise fragt nach den Formen und den Auswirkungen dieses ausgrenzenden und nationalistischen Denkens in Europa.Mit Beiträgen von:Moritz Altenried, Umberto Bettarini, Christoph Butterwegge, Alessandro Capelli, Anna Curcio, Frank Eckardt, Patrick Eser, Sebastian Friedrich, Bernd Kasparek, Anika Kozicki, Sara Madjlessi-Roudi, Maria Markantonatou, Sibille Merz, Davide Schmid, Ingo Schmidt, Patrick Schreiner, Mariane Schütt, Sava Ta , Vassilis Tsianos, Torben Villwock, Ute Weinmann u.a. 236 pp. Deutsch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, Saarland University, course: Proseminar Posthumanism in Contemporary British Literature and Culture, language: English, abstract: In this paper, I will analyse the representation of the gendered and raced androids in Alex Garland's science-fiction dystopia Ex Machina (2015), providing a close reading through a feminist lens, and critically reflecting upon the construction of their posthuman identities in a gendered and raced human-like body. I argue that, even though the film may have some subversive aspects regarding its representation of patriarchal power structures, it fails to dismantle certain sexist and racial stereotypes, but instead contributes to their solidification by assigning them to the posthuman subject. This visual portrayal of discrimination against women and especially non-white women in a system that privileges men and white people is not only a reflection of prevalent socio-cultural and political conditions, but also the cinematographic result of the white patriarchal system itself, whether it be with regard to the film's literary design as well as its mise-en-scène and cinematography. In order to prove my point, I will rely on Laura Mulvey's essay 'Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema' (1975), extending it to the representation of racial difference, since 'gender intersects with race, class, ethnic, sexual, and regional modalities of discursively constituted identities'.With advancing technology, artificial intelligence continues to be portrayed in literature and visual culture, affecting our current and future views of the human, as well as those of 'the posthuman'. This subject is 'the figure' of Critical Posthumanism, a theoretical approach trying to discuss the question 'what it means to be human' and functioning 'like an anamnesis and a rewriting of the human and humanism'. One of its key components, as Rosi Braidotti points out, is to question the traditional view of Humanism, which places a European, male and white ideal at the core of the universe. 20 pp. Englisch.…
