Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -«Deeply versed in recent theoretical discussions of the lyric form in general and the elegy in particular, Adele Bardazzi also brings to bear queer thinking on temporality and philosophical treatments of mourning to shift the understanding of Montale's verse, contesting the division between… an early lyrical phase and a later ironic phase. A rich combination of sensitive readings and critical reflection.»(Jonathan Culler, Cornell University, Author of Theory of the Lyric) «In a series of carefully wrought readings of poems in which Montale writes of his lost loves, death, mourning, and his own quite particular vision of the afterlife, Adele Bardazzi both challenges traditional interpretations of Montalian poetic beloveds and offers her own convincing overview of the eschatological dimension of one of the twentieth century's most essential bodies of verse. A surprisingly fresh take on a much-studied poet, this fine book gives new life to the realm of death in which Montale's poetry of mourning is so tenaciously rooted.»(Rebecca West, William R. Kenan, Jr. Distinguished Service Professor Emerita of Italian, University of Chicago) «Adele Bardazzi's book offers an original perspective on Montale's work. The poetics of mourning allows on the one hand to read the text in the light of the theory of the lyric and, on the other hand, to highlight the importance of some figures in Montale's poetry, through an evocative comparison with the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice and that of Persephone.» (Niccolò Scaffai, Associate Professor of Literary Criticism and Comparative Literature, University of Siena) This book is as much about the living as it is about the dead. It investigates how the dead dwell in the world of the living and how that continuing relationship has inspired particular forms of poetic writing. It analyses how poetry assumes the key responsibility of voicing grief and thus creates a unique space in which the dead's presence is sustained, in a constant state of potential transformation and renewal.This monograph explores this topic with reference to one of the most important poets of the twentieth century, Eugenio Montale (1896-1981), and his principal collections, from Ossi di seppia (Cuttlefish Bones) (1925) to Quaderno di Quattro anni (Notebook of Four Years) (1977). These primary texts are enhanced by a critical framework that brings three different areas of enquiry into dialogue: scholarship on mourning, theories of the lyric, and feminist approaches. Questions explored include the following: How does mourning become a crucial creative and ethical force in literature What kind of poetry draws on, and may even require, the presence of an absent female lyric addressee How does this affect the nature of poetic discourses on mourning and lyric poetry more broadly This book offers the first comprehensive study of Montale's poetics of mourning accessible to both scholars in Italian Studies and scholars interested, more broadly, in modern poetry, discourses of mourning, and lyric theory. 264 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -«Documentary in the Age of COVID is a timely and astute volume that affirms and challenges our thinking about how the cultural and technological disruption brought by the pandemic response has upended documentary culture. It is a guiding light for documentary practitioners and scholars as they nav…igate the new terrain of a post-COVID world.»(Professor Belinda Smaill, Monash University)This collection responds to the unusual and disturbing challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The volume surveys the immediate effects of the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in documentary film cultures as well as providing a space for unpacking the recent past and future of documentary in the context of the pandemic's possible effects. It is published as part of Peter Lang's Documentary Film Cultures series and reflects the value of documentary as an enduring and influential channel of media discourse and community of practice. Media producers have been forced to both interrogate their chosen professions and innovate with limited resources. Already, we are seeing new distribution and production methods emerge to highlight the importance of media-makers as essential workers, as they are uniquely equipped with the ability to represent the various dialogues undertaken to respond to the cultural, social, economic and political challenges the pandemic has foisted on global society. 294 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Nietzsche's doctrine of the 'eternal recurrence of the same'-the conception that the universe of events repeats itself in the same sequence, to infinity-is often taken to be logically incoherent: if an event recurs, it is not identically the same as the event itself, and if taken as self-identical… cannot be the recurrence of anything. This book offers a new interpretation of the doctrine so as to rescue it from the charge of incoherence. It shows that the doctrine is an outgrowth of ideas found in Nietzsche's philosophy of nature, among them that space is Riemannian (finite yet without external boundary) and that time is relative to events, not an independently existing continuum which underlies events. 'Moles' book is an impressive attempt to work out the cosmology suggested by Nietzsche's numerous but scattered observations and suggestions concerning force, space, time, power and power-relationships, and culminating in his conception of the world in terms of 'will to power' and in his idea of 'eternal recurrence.' This book is a welcome contribution to the literature, and will have to be reckoned with by anyone who is concerned to do justice to the full range of Nietzsche's philosophical thinking.'-Richard Schacht, Executive Director, North American Nietzsche Society; Professor and Chair, Department of Philosophy, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 'In this book, Alistair Moles brings to light a dimension of Nietzsche's philosophy which most past commentators have neglected. He carries out a thorough exploration of Nietzsche's conception of nature, presenting a coherent picture which he manages to link both with classical philosophy and with modern science. Drawing on the whole range of Nietzsche's writings, his account shows an impressive depth of detail and scholarship. However, it also goes well beyond exposition. The concepts of force and space receive a particularly subtle and satisfying elaboration, which leads to the high point of the book: a highly original reconstruction of the controversial doctrine of eternal recurrence. This chapter alone deserves to give rise to much discussion among Nietzsche scholars. The book as a whole should serve to counter a tendency to see Nietzsche only in terms of the concerns of moral, political or literary theory. It helps us to recognize him as a compete philosopher, and in doing so it makes a major contribution to our understanding of this important thinker.'-Robin Small, Monash University 510 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -We are witnessing a sea change regarding mental health in sports media. led in part by professional athletes such as Michael Phelps, Kevin Love, Naomi Osaka, and Simone Biles, who are sharing their own experiences with mental illne…ss, bucking stereotypes in which people experiencing mental health issues are condemned to unfulfilling lives. From quarterbacks to pitchers, power forwards to Olympic swimmers, athletes are increasingly using the mass mediäincluding social mediäto share their experiences with depression, anxiety, and other disorders.Head Game: Mental Health in Sports Mediauses interviews with key athletes, leading journalists and sportscasters, and organizational and league leaders to show how media has been used¿and could be used in the future¿to advance greater understanding of mental health. Professional athletes describe their own experiences with mental illness, including the challenges and opportunities they encountered in the locker room, field of play, and mass media. The athletes, who represent a spectrum of professional sports, describe their decisions to disclose as well as their recommendations for current and future generations of athletes.Head Game highlights the crucial importance of such disclosures in challenging the context of professional sport where athletes are trained to be 'tough' from a young age and any mental illness could translate into reduced playing time and even harassment.'Head Game represents the first book of its kind to tackle one of today¿s most pressing public health crises, one that has been forced into the shadows for far too long, through the lens of sport. Billings and Parrott explore the key media moments in this movement, the storytellers who shaped them, the institutional response from leagues and teams, and the first-hand accounts of elite athletes who have struggled to bring mental health awareness to the forefront¿all of which has come to shape how we talk about mental health today. This timely, well-researched and expansive volume offers a powerful compilation of perspectives from prominent athletes like Olympians Michael Phelps and Gracie Gold, to the NFL¿s Brandon Bostick, to the NHL¿s Corey Hirsch. In combating the silence, stigma, stereotypes and prejudice that have often plagued discussions of mental health, Head Game tracks the modern movement for mental health advocacy within the world of sport and beyond. I highly recommend this book to anyone teaching courses in communication, sport and society, as students will undoubtedly find the material engaging and relatable, as well as to any reader interested in mental health portrayals in the media. I suspect everyone who reads Head Game will find a story within it that they can connect to.'¿Leigh Moscowitz, Professor in the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, University of South Carolina'For too long the discourse of ¿mental toughness¿ has dominated sports culture, from the way we coach and train athletes to how athletes are covered in the media. Through interviews with elite/professional athletes who have publicly disclosed mental health issues, the sports journalists who cover their stories, and sports organizations¿ own efforts to address mental health, Head Game dissects how dangerous this discourse has been, and creates much-needed awareness on an issue that has been stigmatized in our culture. Head Game humanizes athletes, reminding readers that gold medals, championships, million-dollar salaries, corporate endorsements, or super star celebrity do not immunize athletes against mental health struggles. Sadly, what is at stake is a matter of life or death. Head Game is required reading for all athletes, coaches, journalists, sports fans, or anyone who cares about the mental health and well-being of athletes.'¿Cheryl Cooky, Professor of American Studies and Women¿s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Purdue University 220 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many Books, Many Stories aims to provide both the rationale for engaging in work with inclusive children's and young adult literature and the resources necessary for teachers, counselors, librarians and school administration to inc…orporate diverse literature into the classroom or into school-wide contexts. The authors provide multiple perspectives and examples of texts that open conversations about powerful topics and ideas that arise in many children's and young adult books. Indeed, it is not enough to just have access to many stories; teachers must consider the ways in which they can engage in discussions around books and their importance. This volume serves to prepare both teacher candidates and in-service teachers to become reflective practitioners who embrace responsive literacy instruction and who work to ensure equity in literacy education. Therefore, this book serves as a resource to guide educators with both pedagogy and curricular content-embracing stories and amplifying voices with children's and young adult literature. 'The collection of chapters in this volume is inspiring. Striking a perfect balance between theory and classroom practice, this volume provides a convincing reason as to why the use of children's literature is critical and necessary in today's universities, schools, and classrooms. The editors have done an excellent job in collecting a diverse set of engaging and insightful chapters to discuss matters of race, identity, inequality, and diversity.'-Bobbie Kabuto, Professor of Literacy Education, Queens College, CUNY'This thoughtfully edited collection brings together a powerful collection of educators to discuss a crucially important topic in classrooms today. The authors push the reader to question and critically reflect on how they can use literature to facilitate important conversations about diversity. The chapters challenge thinking but also provide multiple examples and the resources that will enable educators to provide spaces in the classroom for children to see their lives reflected in literature.'-Sinead Harmey, Associate Professor in Literacy Education, IOE, University College London's Faculty of Education and Society 156 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Research related to transition and support needs for autistic adults remains limited. The purpose of this study was to understand the hopes, dreams, aspirations, challenges, and lived experiences of autistic adults. Academic litera…ture has largely emphasized autism as a medical deficit, and use of first-person narratives to understand needs of people on the autism spectrum is rare. To fill this gap, this narrative study was conducted through a social model of disability lens and centered voices of autistic individuals. This research recognized that only someone who is autistic can be considered a true expert on autism; thus, it is imperative researchers consult with and collaborate with autistic individuals to develop the most useful support services possible. By including autistic people in research design, implementation, and support services, academics and therapists can learn from the neurodivergent about problems that the social and cultural worlds present them with, thereby moving toward a more socially just society. This study included both academic literature and autobiographies written by autistic authors. The coauthor in this study is also an autistic adult who presented his life experiences for a central narrative. In contrast to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), which conceptualizes autism as a list of deficits, a number of powerful themes emerged from analysis of autistic authors' lives: Isolation, Influence of Parents, Differences in Needs: Education and Employment, Empowerment, and Relationships. These themes were contextualized via theories of neurodiversity paradigm, monotropism theory, and the double empathy problem, to better understand autistic experiences and needs. 'Mathur and Valerius provide an articulate view into the lived experiences of individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. As an ABA practitioner and scholar, it made me think deeply about how clinicians may go about the implementation of compassionate ABA services. This book is a timely and significant contribution relevant for anyone with that goal in mind.'-Adel C. Najdowski, PhD, BCBA-D, Program Director, MS Applied Behavior Analysis, Pepperdine University, Los Angeles, California 'Adam and Sneha have created a beautiful and very much-needed book. Reading this book brings me hope. While my lived experience is different than that of Adam, I see so many recurring themes in my own life and in the lives of the learners who I support. The combination of narrative and research is engaging and makes a convincing argument for qualitative, lived-experience research. This work is mirrored by current and emerging research on Community-Informed Practice and Neurodiversity Affirming Practice. It is my opinion that this book needs to be included as essential reading for any person, autistic and allistic, who interacts with autistics (which really is everyone). But this book should be included in the required reading for any person who provides support for autistics in any setting.'-Brian Middleton, M.Ed., IBA, BCBA, LBA, The 'Bearded Behaviorist,' Autistic Advocate 'Dr. Mathur and Mr. Valerius have crafted a critical and engaging book that amplifies the voices of autistics through vibrant qualitative research. As a psychologist, I found this to be enlightening, highly educational and a vital contribution to the literature as it addresses the lack of representation of autistic voices. It's an insightful and useful tool and an essential addition to any clinician's library. As a mother of an autistic child and consumer of ABA services, this encouraging book resonates with me on a personal level, and I believe it is required reading for anyone who loves, works with and supports autistics, particularly if ABA is part of their journey.'-Madeeha Mir, Ph.D., Counseling Psychologist and Instructor, New York University 248 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Living in a post-truth world during an era of information wars, making sense of events is increasingly challenging for everyone. The fact that today's politics has found many retreating to ideologically 'safe' spaces online where t…heir world view is not contested makes the need for news and information literacy more significant. A contemporary world where disinformation and propaganda lead to a distrust of news sources calls for a new way to approach information and news literacy. Digital technology has seemingly made information and news easier to access, but it has also made sorting quality from nonsense a challenge.This book presents a different approach to news and information literacy which uses a flipped classroom method to create a student-centered learning experience. The course is guided by the educational philosophy of Paulo Freire and draws on theory and research from psychology, education and news and information literacy. The course begins with an exercise which reveals the role confirmation bias plays in how students judge the adequacy of news and information they retrieve through online search. The course engenders greater confidence in mastering the pitfalls of the Internet as students emerge empowered with self-knowledge as well as a better understanding of the Internet. The book is relevant for news, information and media literacy teachers, especially at the secondary and collegiate levels, curriculum specialists, continuing and adult education specialists and anyone who wants to better understand how we process news and information in the digital age. 154 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -When the World Turned Upside Down is a collection of 66 essays and opinion columns written between 2019 and 2022, a period of momentous-some unimaginable-developments in the United States and across the world. This book stands at t…he intersection of opinion journalism, history, and chronicling offering a dialogue between past and present (or present and past). They are, to use the often-quoted phrase, first drafts of history.Over the past five years, the world has witnessed several 'unimaginables' about which the author felt compelled to write. Some of the book's essays identify, analyze, and connect parallels between the U.S. Antebellum and Civil War and the contemporary increasingly polarized context that reached an explosive peak during the 2020 elections and the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.Shrouded in a cloud of unprecedented global pestilence, the world has witnessed dramatic political and geopolitical change, mostly for the worse: China, Russia, Hungary, Belarus, Myanmar, Cuba, even Puerto Rico. Essays in this book discuss these transformations from a historical perspective as well as mass popular resistance, in places like Cuba, where they seemed unimaginable.The book's final section, 'Not Boring at All: Globalization and World Politics,' explores the global ramifications of the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical rearrangements related to China's meteoric ascendance as a world power, Russia's militaristic expansionism, and related topics. 'In When the World Turned Upside Down, Luis Martínez-Fernández demonstrates that he is not 'merely' an acclaimed historian, but an engaging, sharp-witted social commentator. This excellent collection of columns, written during and about what Martínez-Fernández rightly terms 'the unimaginable events of 2019-2022,' is dazzling for his easy, readable blend of history, sociology, popular culture, politics and more.'-Jeff Robbins, Columnist, Boston Herald and Creators Syndicate 'Martínez-Fernández's book reads like a series of missives from the front, capturing the drama of unfolding, often unpredictable, events. The author is a master story-weaver, drawing from the warp and weft of our national and global histories to reveal patterns in today's events.'-Suzette Martinez Standring, Author of The Art of Column Writing 'Professor Martínez-Fernández fuses the perspective of a historian with a journalist's eye on wide-ranging contemporary events. The result is an exhilarating read and a broader understanding of today's world.'-George Breslauer, Professor and Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Emeritus, UC Berkeley 440 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Migration and Creation in Aztec and Maya Literature provides a new perspective on migration and creation episodes in the Popol Vuh of the Quiché Maya Indians of highland Guatemala, demonstrating that they are largely borrowed from…Aztec sources. These findings upend previous interpretations resulting from the widely held belief that the Popol Vuh is the most 'authentic' Maya book. Victoria Bricker's careful historical analysis explains the origin of these borrowings, which stemmed from the expansion of the Aztec empire southward from the Central Valley of Mexico into the highlands of what is today the Mexican state of Chiapas and continuing into highland Guatemala as far south as the town of Utatlán, whose rulers then intermarried with members of the Aztec royal family.This innovative volume explores new ground, comparing Aztec pictorial representations of migration with Maya written descriptions of the same events and showing that they have much in common. Bricker's exploration of creation narratives demonstrates that the Aztec treatment of multiple creations is more coherent than the Popol Vuh version because it describes the end of each creation before embarking on a new creation, whereas the Popol Vuh version refers to the end of all creations only once. Bricker also provides a new interpretation of creation texts from the archaeological sites of Quirigua and Palenque that challenges models suggesting that the Precolumbian Maya, like the Aztecs, believed in multiple creations. Students of Latin American history will find fresh insights regarding interactions and cultural contact in Late Prehispanic Mesoamerica in Bricker's study. Victoria Bricker, one of the most accomplished scholars in the field of Mesoamerican studies, presents a fascinating hypothesis about creation legends in this new book. Synthesizing references to Mesoamerican migration and creation accounts in the Colonial period and ethnographic literature, she concludes that the multiple creation events recorded in the Popol Vuh, a colonial-period Quiché Maya text, were derived from Central Mexican traditions. Bricker finds no evidence for multiple creation events in Classic period Maya texts, and suggests that the narrative recorded in the Popol Vuh was probably transferred from the Aztec outpost in Zinacantán, Chiapas, to Quiché nobility, who aspired to increase their status by linking their creation narrative to Aztec accounts. This book provides a stimulating new look at the exchange of ideas across Mesoamerica, and will certainly lead scholars to reexamine the often-claimed link between the Popol Vuh and Classic Maya iconography.-Dr. Susan Milbrath, Emeritus Curator of Latin American Art and Archaeology Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida, GainesvilleThis is an extraordinary book. Only Victoria Bricker-with her mastery of Maya linguistics, hieroglyphics, and colonial sources, and her knowledge of Aztec texts-could have compared Aztec and Maya creation literature in the probing and thoughtful way she has. The short chapters, each with its clear focus, carry her analysis naturally forward to a deeper understanding of the Popol Vuh and, indeed, much migration and creation literature in Mesoamerica.-Dr. Elizabeth Hill Boone, Professor Emerita, Tulane University 152 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Antisemitism and the White Supremacist Imaginary: Conflations and Contradictions in Composition and Rhetoric, Mara Lee Grayson calls attention to the complicity of academic institutions and the discipline(s) of rhetoric, composi…tion, and writing studies in the simultaneous perpetuation and denial of anti-Jewish racism. Despite the persistence of antisemitism and Christian hegemony in the United States and its academic institutions, and despite a growing body of antiracist and anti-oppressive scholarship, antisemitism remains largely unaddressed in disciplinary scholarship, curricula, and pedagogy. This book begins to fill that gap by exploring how the rhetoric through which Jewish identity is conceptualized and weaponized by the white supremacist imaginary essentializes Jewish identities and obscures the racist aims and character of antisemitism. Drawing upon rhetorical analysis, personal narrative, and original phenomenological research, Grayson highlights how deeply embedded antisemitic ideologies impact the lived experiences of Jewish teachers, students, and scholars, and perpetuate white supremacy. This book illuminates the experiential, rhetorical, historical, political, and racial dynamics of antisemitism, exposes the limitations of existing discourses of whiteness and (anti)racism, and gestures toward a future in which, through more nuanced and productive discourse, we can better support Jewish educators and students and better engage Jewish members of the discipline as accomplices in antiracism. 'I take this book personally. Grayson's theoretical framework, historical overview, personal anecdotes, and phenomenological research locate antisemitism nestled in the heart of the white supremacist imaginary. I felt such sadness, anger, and pain reading this book-recognizing myself as a Jew in its stark reflection-and yet her words also charge me, explicitly in my Jewishness, with the urgent need to join others in imagining a more just world through cooperative action and frank dialogue. It's a powerful and vibrant contribution to our field.'-Eli Goldblatt, Co-Author, with David Jolliffe, of Literacy as Conversation: Learning Networks in Urban and Rural Communities 'In this timely and important monograph, Dr. Grayson adroitly explains the impact of antisemitism not only for rhetoric, composition, and writing scholars and students but also our contemporary moment. In lucid and engaging prose, she unpacks thousands of years of history and tropes, making this book a must-read for anyone engaged in antiracist work.'-Janice W. Fernheimer, Zantker Professor of Jewish Studies, Professor of Writing, Rhetoric, and Digital Studies, University of Kentucky 234 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book provides an in-depth analysis of how constitutionalism and diversity can be friends and foes alike in contemporary multinational democracies. By focusing mainly on the dynamics between Quebec and Canada and comparing thes…e with ongoing issues in Catalonia and Spain, Flanders and Belgium, and South Tyrol and Italy, the authors offer new insights into the public management of national diversity. In doing so, they sought to unpack the numerous challenges divided societies are facing.The pieces that together form the title of this book are not merely of symbolic significance. Constitutionalism v Diversity: Essays on Federal Democracy echoes the four underlying principles of the Canadian Constitution that the Supreme Court of Canada identified in its famous 1998 Reference re Secession of Quebec. These are (1) federalism, (2) democracy, (3) constitutionalism and the rule of law, and (4) protection of minorities. While these four concepts are at the very core of both authors' argument and approach, the Supreme Court of Canada's Secession Reference is guiding them through the book by providing a robust and meaningful theoretical and analytical framework. These principles appear as universal normative parameters societies should see as ideals to pursue and translate - while adapting their content to the specific context - into concrete institutions and practices. Even more today this book shows the great analytical value of these four principles to critically appraise of the way multinational liberal democracies in general and federal systems in particular are evolving. 250 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Este libro continúa las indagaciones en torno a las poetas cubanas, iniciadas por la autora en las antologías El instante raro, de Fina García Marruz (2010) y en Otra Cuba secreta (2011) y en Entre el cacharro doméstico y la Vía Lá…ctea. Poetas cubanas e hispanoamericanas (2012). Dos categorías, cubanidad y contemporaneidad, atraviesan ahora los acercamientos. El libro traza un recorrido en torno a la obra de algunas de las escritoras más relevantes de la poesía cubana, desde el siglo XIX hasta la actualidad, como Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda, Mercedes Matamoros, Dulce María Loynaz, Carilda Oliver Labra, Fina García Marruz, Nivaria Tejera, Isel Rivero, Lina de Feria, Magali Alabau, Reina María Rodríguez o Damaris Calderón. Los ensayos exploran aspectos y zonas poco estudiados por la crítica: las singulares construcciones en torno a la cubanía de Gómez de Avellaneda y García Marruz, los cruzamientos entre Modernismo y modernidad en los últimos poemas de Matamoros; la difícil construcción de la feminidad en el Modernismo; la dimensión transatlántica de la poesía de Gómez de Avellaneda; las entrevisiones nicaragüenses de García Marruz; el análisis del texto-tela, madeja de escritura y costura, en Reina María Rodríguez; la mirada sobre las ciudades del exilio en Tejera y Alabau; o la función de la metapoesía. Dos figuras peculiares completan el conjunto: Alma Rubens, heterónimo del poeta José Manuel Poveda, y la 'antropoeta' Lydia Cabrera. Tres poetas hispanoamericanas acompañan el recorrido: Delmira Agustini, Gabriela Mistral y Alfonsina Storni, y la filósofa española María Zambrano. 242 pp. Spanisch.

Desde la escritura en pr…imera persona se han construido y creado distintas formas de identidad, forjando nuevos modelos, explorando el campo de la subjetividad y de la responsabilidad cívica en un contexto sociopolítico complicado.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Franz Beckenbauer once observed that, in England, «war correspondents get their say whenever their team plays us.» In Crossing the Line , Christoph Wagner surveys German football rivalry in the second half of the twentieth century…as it was played out on the pitch and in the press. The Second World War undoubtedly cast a long shadow, framing the way in which matches were previewed and reported. The contrasting fortunes of the British and West German economies and British anxieties regarding German unification also impacted on sports coverage.An intense Anglo-German international football rivalry was forged against this backdrop. Newspaper readers often turn to the back page first and first impressions are important. Press coverage helped to shape what the English thought of the Germans and what they thought of themselves. Crossing the Line - which includes an important chapter on the German media - focuses largely on the part played by English newspapers in generating a simplistic sporting commentary heavily dependent on stereotypes before it overreached itself in the mid-1990s and the German popular press began to hit back. As English football pundits often remind their viewers: «You can never underestimate the Germans». 286 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This monograph is focused on the fictional works of Arnold Bennett whose literary role was very important in the history of the late nineteenth and early twentiethcentury novel in light of the debate between modernism and the tradi…tional approach to the craft of fiction. After a long period of critical silence, this book reaffirms Bennett's centrality through a sociohistorical and semiotic analysis of his most famous novels and short stories. In this sense, it offers a new reading of Bennett which may be a groundbreaking contribution to the discussion of the function of British fiction in the context of a multifaceted epistemic change. 176 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -En 1798, Leandro Fernández de Moratín, uno de los más reconocidos autores del neoclasicismo español, publica la traducción de Hamlet. Su versión marca un hito en la recepción de la obra de William Shakespeare en España, pues se tra…ta de la primera vez que la tragedia se traduce directamente del texto original. A pesar de la fidelidad con que traduce Moratín, el español muestra una actitud casi alérgica hacia la obra del bardo inglés, pues le parece un todo extraordinario a la par que monstruoso. Moratín duda del estatus de Shakespeare, al que algunos consideran un dios del teatro, y se escandaliza al contemplar escenas donde, a su juicio, los personajes no se expresan con el debido decoro. El paratexto que acompaña a la obra misma incluye notas a la traducción donde el autor español se ceba en sus críticas a la manera en la que Shakespeare compone su obra. El reparo que muestra ante la obra se hace especialmente evidente en los pasajes con contenido sexual, que se estudian al detalle en este monográfico. El análisis cualitativo de éstos, centrado en examinar los mecanismos que el autor emplea para la traslación de las expresiones de contenido más procaz, se sustenta asimismo en estudios de corpus, que nos permiten profundizar en otras cuestiones tales como la visión que ambos autores aportan de los personajes masculinos y femeninos (tanto en la tragedia como en sus obras completas) o la evolución de términos con contenido sexual a lo largo de los siglos. 146 pp. Spanisch.

Internet ha cambiado sus prácticas, que a menudo son diferentes a las que hace algunos años se apo…yaban en instrumentos analógicos. No se conforman con consumir, sino que son intérpretes y creadores de contenidos. Viven la cultura del remix y reconstruyen narrativas transmedia, interactuando con las industrias culturales. Necesitan crear de forma publica o privada a partir de los mensajes que reciben y comparten. Este libro profundiza en estos temas, a través de diferentes casos de estudio, que han surgido a partir de la presencia de la autora en comunidades de adolescentes que se consideran fans. Se exploran comunidades relacionadas con Harry Potter, One Direction, Fornite, Warthammer y algunos programas de televisión. A través de estos casos se muestra cómo la tecnología digital ha cambiado la forma de ser o de sentirse fan y también las prácticas de los investigadores que los observan buscando comprender que significa ser fan entre la gente joven. 288 pp. Spanisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Journalism in the Civil War Era presents the historical context of Civil War journalism-placing the press of the era within the entire nineteenth century. It gives a broad account of journalism in the Civil War, reflecting on the p…olitical, military, legal, and journalistic issues involved in this era. It is written with chapters that examine these various facets of the journalism of the period, but they are connected by the theme of the development of the wartime press, with an emphasis on the professional, political, social, economic, legal, and military factors that affected it. It provides:An in-depth look at the political press in the 1850s and 1860s, and how it played a major role in the nation's understanding of the conflict;Technology's role in carrying information in a timely fashion;The development of journalism as a profession;The international context of Civil War journalism;The leadership journalists displayed, including Horace Greeley and his New York Tribune bully pulpit;The nature of journalism during the war;The way freedom of the press was advanced by polarizing political extremes. The work is historical, written in an engaging style, and meant to encourage readers to explore and analyze the value of freedom of the press during that very time when it most comes under fire-wartime. 'David W. Bulla and Gregory A. Borchard explore ties between journalism and politics and between New York and the Midwest (then known as the West) before the Civil War. Newspapers shared an increasing emphasis on information over opinion. Facts often tended to fit the editors' agendas with winners overplaying their triumphs and losers becoming more restrained. Major newspapers, particularly the New York Herald with the largest investment in correspondents, placed news on the front page and interpretation inside, even while publisher James Gordon Bennett initially blamed Lincoln for the war. Major dailies increasingly reported news from the front and smaller papers relied more on opinion and local angles.'-William E. Huntzicker, Minneapolis writer and author of The Popular Press 1833-1865 'Bulla and Borchard have produced what has been long needed in the study of U.S. Civil War journalism: a social and cultural history of the American press that goes beyond anecdotal accounts of war news. They explore the nature of the Civil War-era press itself in all its strengths and weaknesses, ranging from political and economic grandstanding and over-the-top verbal grandiloquence to the sheer bravery and determination of a number of editors, publishers, and journalists who viewed their tasks as interpreters and informers of the day's news. Using a mix of carefully selected case studies as well as an extensive study of newspapers both large and small, this highly readable work places the Civil War press squarely where it belongs-as a part of the larger social and cultural experience of mid-nineteenth century America.'-Mary M. Cronin, Department of Journalism, New Mexico State University 'The study of Civil War journalism has traditionally been treated as a facet of the history of war correspondence, but war reporting does not exist in a vacuum, as David Bulla and Gregory Borchard skillfully show readers in their latest edition of Journalism in the Civil War Era. This new edition freshens the book's original version by expanding on their insightful examination of the way the American Civil War ushered in the greater reliance on the information model of journalism, which would exist side-by-side with the existing partisan model. Few scholars have attempted the sort of holistic study that examines not only the nature of Civil War journalism but, 436 pp. Englisch.
