Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'While Mark McBeth has previously researched and explored forgotten homophobic discourses and their rebuttals through the actors of literacy, Objectionable offers a dynamic account of how literacy and its objects work to shape self and society. He reveals the surprising role that police tr…aining textbooks, young adult sex education manuals, and syndicated advice columns played in queer life over the last century and continue to play into our own. Anyone who has ever been touched by such objects--that is, all of us--will be moved by what McBeth teaches us about these forces of constriction, composition, and creativity.' -Jessica Yood, Professor of English, Lehman College and The Graduate Center, CUNY 'At a moment when LGBTQ people are facing increasing repression in the U.S., Mark McBeth's book offers us a vital historical resource that maps the ways queer people have employed textual objects to resist dominant heteronormative regimes that have been designed to silence and erase us.' -J Palmeri, Professor of English, Georgetown University In a documentarian research study of artifacts from archives across the United States, this book examines how homophobia circulated through literacy-sponsored objects and how Queer literates created countervailing things to upend that heteronormative discourse. Through the theoretical lens of Bruno Latour's quasi-objects, it analyzes police cadet textbooks, young adult sex education manuals, and syndicated advice columns to show how they had influential agency in Queer lives across the twentieth century.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'In this insightful, meticulously researched study, Capano reveals the complexities of Italian nationalist ideology and advocacy in the contested Yugoslav-Italian border regions, making sense of the cacophony of voices that shaped local relations and Italian foreign policy from the end of…World War II to the 1975 Osimo Accords and beyond.' - Maura Hametz, Professor of History, James Madison University 'Fabio Capano's book traces how Trieste - the 'unruly city' - was a symbol of Italianità, a Cold War hotspot, and a bridge between Italy and the Socialist Bloc. It is a major contribution to the literature of contemporary Italy and of the Cold War and deserves to be widely read. Italian nationalism was much more resilient than many believe, Capano argues. Cold War Trieste illustrates his point well.' - Mark Gilbert, C. Grove Haines Professor of History, Johns Hopkins UniversityA captivating journey through the tumultuous socio-political landscape of a contested city, this book investigates the enduring influence of nationalism as a political ideology in Cold War Italy. It views this topic through the lens of a disputed borderland teetering on the southern edge of the Iron Curtain between 1945 and 1975. Taking a multidimensional approach, the author explores the entanglement of local, national, and international politics in shaping projected meanings of the border's Italianità within public discourse from containment to détente. It narrates how the views and actions of a wide array of political actors and émigré associations left an indelible imprint on the city's historical memory and its Italian community. Drawing on a rich tapestry of primary sources, this book ultimately offers readers a panoramic view of Cold War Trieste and its contested borderland.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Often equated with control and domination, mastery, if left unchecked, leads to annihilation and colonization of otherness. Mastery is also evident in intellectual humility, in conceding that humans will only ever have a partial un…derstanding of the universe. This partiality is a gift. Our greatest teacher, the Earth, shows ecological mastery independent of human minds. Early modern Westerners, the Renaissance humanists, were comfortable living with the unknown. Treating modernity and mastery with compassion, the author explores how scarcity and abundance affect our relationship to the strangeness inside, between and around us. We ache to recall a humbler, pluralistic, non-colonial ethos. Old earthen ways lie waiting for us to take them up again. Using vibrant paintings and accessible prose, the author illustrates the mastery of living well with those we don't understand. This book summons Westerners home to forgotten wisdom and to respectful, non-colonizing relations with otherness. In a culture fetishizing Mastery as dominance, control, hyper-efficiency, all linked to a desire for competitive advantage and security, this beautifully written book by Tanya Behrisch shows how there is also co-incidentally an 'other' way, more whole-some and life-giving. Drawing on her experience as artist, corporate manager, student and observant lover of the greater-than-human world, Behrisch intricately reveals the paradoxical, indeed interpenetrating organic relationship between making and unmaking, grasping and letting go, closure and openness, completeness and indeterminacy. For a time when an old 'order' seems to be dis-integrating, this is a truly important study. - David Geoffrey Smith, PhD, Professor Emeritus, University of Alberta, Canada 254 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the last decade, critical Germanophone cultural productions have led a feminist and/or queer resistance against the rise of conservative politics. Embodied Realities offers an overview of recent queer, feminist, and intersection…al debates across literature, film, performing arts, and the history of ideas. It features a unique collaboration among activists, authors, and scholars and proposes a pluridisciplinary, multimodal, and transnational approach to 'embodiment' and 'reality.' In exploring the intertwining of activism and creation, contributors interrogate 'embodiment' as a practice that fights commodification and discrimination and 'reality' as the illusory state of normativity as well as the hopeful becoming of alternatives that reconfigure societies. The testimonies included in the volume allow for a deeper understanding of life experiences that have, in turn, inspired cultural productions. Academic essays vary from case studies to studies of broader corpora, highlighting positionality, identity, and sexuality. 182 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the political and literary culture of sixteenth-century Savoy through the lens of Emmanuel-Philibert de Pingon, a court poet, diplomat and historiographer embedded in the political life of the duchy. It examines…how literary production and personal networks shaped Savoyard identity during a period of territorial occupation and shifting European alliances. Drawing on archival research, rare manuscripts and interdisciplinary methods, it investigates themes of diplomacy, historiography, antiquarianism and cultural memory. The studies gathered here shed new light on the ambitions of a smaller state asserting its identity within early modern Europe. Cet ouvrage examine la culture politique et littéraire de la Savoie au seizième siècle à travers la figure d'Emmanuel-Philibert de Pingon, poète de cour, diplomate et historiographe engagé dans la vie politique du duché. Il met en lumière l'influence des réseaux littéraires et personnels dans la construction de l'identité savoyarde à une époque marquée par l'occupation territoriale et les recompositions géopolitiques européennes. Fondé sur des recherches archivistiques, l'étude de manuscrits rares et une approche interdisciplinaire, ce livre explore les thématiques de la diplomatie, de l'historiographie, de l'antiquarisme et de la mémoire culturelle. Les contributions réunies offrent un éclairage nouveau sur les stratégies d'affirmation d'un État de petite taille dans l'Europe de la Renaissance. 204 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume explores how negotiating power between different cultures, as well as within educational contexts, can shape personal growth, empowerment, and well-being in musicking practices. It examines the interface between individ…uals engaged in musicking and the institutions and societies that exercise power over them. The chapters investigate strategies of resistance and survival used by musicians who challenge or reject institutionalised ways of knowing. In doing so, they often draw on traditionally marginalised domains of musical experience-such as expression, affect, and values. In some contributions, these domains form the central argument, while in others they are integrated with more conventional concerns of musical materials and construction. Together, these perspectives raise important questions about the role of spirituality in the lives of musicians, offering fresh insights into how musicking can contribute to spiritual flourishing and emotional well-being even under conditions of constraint. 294 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book offers an innovative perspective on trilingual education (English, Spanish, and Catalan) in primary schools through the CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) approach. Drawing on a large-scale study in the Valencian Co…mmunity, it explores how learners develop academic writing across three languages and how factors such as attitudes, identity, language at home, and extramural exposure shape their written performance. Moving beyond the debate on 'CLIL intensity,' the book highlights the voices of students, families, and teachers, while providing practical tools for schools: a whole-school self-assessment rubric for CLIL, a Science-specific rubric based on Cognitive Discourse Functions, and a teacher reflection checklist. By combining theory, empirical evidence, and classroom applications, the volume offers valuable guidance for researchers, teachers, school leaders, and policymakers seeking to promote multilingual education that is inclusive, research-informed, and sustainable. 172 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Regulators increasingly use gender diversity disclosure regulations (GDDR) to promote female representation in corporate leadership positions through public pressure. Despite their far-reaching impact on corporate personnel decisions, evi…dence on efficacy of GDDR is limited. This study examines the disclosure practice and the development of gender diversity across management levels, the determinants of GDDR efficacy, and potentially unintended consequences of GDDR. The results show an overall increase in female leadership among companies affected by GDDR. Furthermore, the findings indicate that different determinants (e.g., public pressure) are associated with the efficacy of GDDR. Moreover, greater supervisory board gender diversity correlates with lower financial reporting quality in specific contexts under certain contextual factors. The empirical findings offer valuable implications for regulators, auditors, enforcement institutions as well as for users of gender diversity reports.; Dissertationsschrift 298 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book examines representations of mothering and matrifocality in twenty-first-century Caribbean fiction. Through an analysis of several contemporary novels from Anglophone Caribbean writers, this study rejects the historic problematis…ation of matrifocality (mother-centeredness) as an alternative to the nuclear family structure by positioning it instead as a vital and capacious building block of Caribbean worlds. In this book, the author also explores literary portrayals of mothering (the care work carried out by mothers, othermothers, grandmothers and more) that resist stereotypical characterisation of Caribbean mother-figures. The author situates her literary analysis alongside debates from sociology, anthropology and history, taking a multidisciplinary approach to her investigation of contemporary Caribbean novels that explores an array of fictional worlds built upon a matrifocal core, and considers how these worlds resist patriarchal and Eurocentric normativity. 190 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This collection of essays examines the multifaceted nature of food-related communication for children, an area that has become increasingly significant within the digital age. Beyond its nutritional value, food has always served as a powe…rful social and cultural connector, with traditions and rituals transmitted across generations. In addition, the contemporary media landscape, characterized by the excessive visibility of both children and food on social media, has given rise to the concept of the 'consumer-child'. This has led to concerns about the negative health impacts of marketing that often promotes unhealthy dietary options. While other fields, such as marketing, media studies, and literary and cultural studies, have explored the symbolic and socio-political dimensions of food representation for children, the volume identifies a significant gap in linguistics and communication studies. To address this gap, the chapters included in the volume aim to shed light on how food is represented, narrated, promoted, and translated for younger audiences across various genres, including corporate communication, digital media, and translation. Finally, the volume also presents the results of the two-year SPIN2023 research project funded by 'Ca' Foscari' University of Venice. 168 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the multifaceted role of music in European royal courts during the early modern era, framing it as a vital instrument for projecting monarchical power, cultural identity, and political prestige. Research into the Britis…h court emphasises the significance of the London Chapel Royal and the public impact of its official compositions, while studies of the French Royal Chapel trace the evolution of the choral motet as a symbol of national identity. The aesthetic and social dimensions of the Mannheim School are examined alongside the legitimising function of the Palatine Chapel in Palermo. Further analyses detail the institutional resurgence of the Ducal Chapel of the House of Este and the creation of acoustic spaces for monarchical magnificence in Valladolid. Investigations into Spanish music history cover the ceremonial regulations of the Royal Chapel of Granada, royal festivities in Zaragoza, and the flourishing of the polychoral style in Madrid. Finally, the collection addresses the iconographic representation in Baroque painting, theatrical innovations during diplomatic marriages, the discovery of lost scores, and the biographical historiography of prestigious chapelmasters like Carlos Patiño and Antonio Ugena. 546 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The volume is the attempt to describe China's reform and opening-up under Deng Xiaoping aegis (1978-2018). Using the mixed approaches of political science, international relations, economy, sociology and culture studies (sinology), it att…empts to show how the country - starting from political anarchy, economic autarky, backwardness, and a closed society - transformed into a global power centre. The study is supported by an extensive, multi-language literature: both Chinese and Western, with some Central European flavour. The author also utilises his rich personal experience in China (since 1976) and tries to explain and - above all - help readers to understand how the internal Chinese discourse has evolved. 590 pp. Englisch.
