Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -The 2016 US election was ugly, divisive, maddening, and influential. In this provocative new book, Paul Booth, Amber Davisson, Aaron Hess, and Ashley Hinck explore the effect that everyday people had on the political process. From viewing candidates as celebrities, to finding fan communitie…s within the political spectrum, to joining others online in spreading (mis)information, the true influence in 2016 was the online participant. Poaching Politics brings together research and scholars from media studies, political communication, and rhetoric to provide an interdisciplinary perspective on the role of participatory cultures in shaping the 2016 US presidential election. Poaching Politics heralds a new way of creating and understanding shifts in the nature of political communication in the digital age. 184 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Place, Power, Media: Mediated Responses to Globalization is a compelling, interdisciplinary exploration of how media practices and communication rituals are connected to larger economic, social, and political processes in a globalizing world. Through a rich variety of media texts, authors e…xamine how daily, mundane, and interpersonal processes help shape 'our' place in the world, a placement that is integrally connected to social relations at the global level. Denoting a sense of geography as well as demarcating diverse social positionings, place is understood as the result of historical and contemporary discourses occurring on a range of scales and within different cultural, aesthetic, and political contexts. The authors argue that the construction, restoration, configuration, and representation of place is an important project at multiple levels; what meanings are derived from it, what meanings are infused, who the key players are, what power struggles are inherent-these issues offer rich areas of study for global media scholars interested in the place-making powers of media. 232 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Litanic verse is based on different syntactic and rhetorical devices, such as enumeration, parallelism, anaphora, and epiphora. Its Italian variants are not to be seen as a mere convention of versification, but as a multifactorial phenomenon, which involves semantic and performative aspects as wel…l. The variants reveal their different faces within various periods, beginning with the Duecento. This book analyzes Italian poetry up until the first decades of the twentieth century, together with certain musical pieces that are closely related to the history of literature. The monograph is the fourth of five volumes devoted to the emergence and development of litanic verse in the literature of European regions. 403 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Con este libro queremos contribuir al estudio académico e interdisciplinario de la vida y la obra de Santa Laura Montoya y, para ello, acudimos a investigadores cuyos saberes están anclados en diferentes disciplinas: teología, medicina, estudios literarios, periodismo, lingüística computacional y…literatura comparada. Cada uno indaga sobre un período o un aspecto diferente de la vida de la Santa, coincidiendo, en algunos casos, con las producciones textuales de parte de la misma, pero, también con otros fenómenos culturales, lingüísticos y/o mediáticos, acontecidos a partir del proceso de canonización. Para el trabajo interpretativo, los investigadores toman como puntos de partida el análisis del discurso, los estudios culturales y,entre otras disciplinas, la hermenéutica feminista. 244 pp. Spanisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Violent Disruptions examines two authors who have powerfully predicted the formation of racial identities and its surrounding discourse in the United States today: William Faulkner (1897-1962) and Richard Wright (1908-1960). Using the works of Faulkner and Wright, this text argues that race become…s visible only through image production and exchange. Further, it argues that following the dismantling of our legally upheld racial inequality and everyday racist language, it is precisely the visual register wherein we see most acutely the continued present-day operation of racial inequality. Violent Disruptions thus places William Faulkner and Richard Wright at the center of our current dramas in the 21st century in popular television, political theater and criminal justice. 111 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Métamorphoses des rôles et statuts par les écritures féminines offre une analyse de la façon dont les romans féminins et la littérature non romanesque défient le statut légal et les rôles sociaux imposés aux citoyennes féminines françaises et francophones, à travers les institutions et les pratiqu…es juridiques, depuis le XVIII ème siècle jusqu'au XX ème siècle. Pour présenter ces défis, Cécile Gouard se concentre sur la détermination des femmes à rechercher l'égalité des droits civiques, en dénonçant les effets du code napoléonien qui les a réduites au statut légal de mineures. Dr Gouard affirme que les romancières féminines, en particulier, ont dénoncé les inégalités sociales et familiales afin de permettre à toutes les femmes l'accès aux études supérieures et à des carrières jusqu'alors réservées aux hommes. Ce faisant, ces écrivaines ont défié les modèles d'éducation qui, pendant longtemps, avaient privilégié les ordres patriarcaux. Ces femmes ont ainsi lutté contre les lois archaïques qui interdisaient contraception et avortement. Dr Gouard montre comment ces écrivaines ont tenté de détruire le mythe bourgeois du couple conjugal, en appelant à des alliances consensuelles qui confèrent aux femmes une pleine égalité. Au final, à travers ces textes qui appellent à la fin du patriarcat et des modèles de féminité préjudiciables, l'auteure ouvre une perspective nouvelle sur les lois et statuts actuels. 179 pp. Französisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -C'est la qualité transculturelle, atemporelle et transgénérique des textes de Colum McCann qui intéresse cet ouvrage. L'auteur n'ancre complètement son oeuvre dans aucune tradition, aucun courant ou mode défini, et propose des textes récalcitrants à toute tentative de classification. En inv…itant régulièrement le symbole dans un univers vraisemblable, McCann ébranle parfois le réalisme de ses textes. De plus, en logeant dans son oeuvre celles et ceux qui ne trouvent pas leur place au centre du tourbillon de l'ère qui est la nôtre, il prend le contrepied du discours historiographique dominant. Ainsi, la notion de rupture apparaît comme une clé de lecture, et son étude permet de comprendre qu'au plan métatextuel, elle inclut plus aisément les lecteurs au sein même des textes, lesquels représentent des espaces d'accueil, de véritables forces centripètes qui les ramènent au coeur de l'expérience littéraire. Cet ouvrage ne s'intéresse donc pas seulement à la création et à la constitution des textes, mais également à leur réception. Ils pourraient être perçus comme autant de synapses assurant la transmission de l'expérience, qui constituent des outils permettant aux lecteurs de repenser leur être-au-monde, notamment à travers l'expérience de l'empathie. 372 pp. Französisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Die Untersuchung befasst sich mit dem sehr praxisrelevanten Schnittstellenbereich: die Stellung des Minderjährigen im Erbrecht. Im Rahmen der Untersuchung konkretisiert die Autorin zunächst den Begriff des «lediglich rechtlichen Vorteils» (107 BGB) und überträgt ihn auf die Vermächtnisannahme und…-ausschlagung. Ist der Vermächtnisnehmer zugleich pflichtteilberechtigt, setzt der Erbe ihm eine Frist zur Erklärung über die Annahme und lässt der Vermächtnisnehmer die Frist verstreichen, gilt das Vermächtnis als ausgeschlagen (2307 Abs. 2 BGB): Hier stellt sich die Frage, wie der Minderjährigenschutz verwirklicht werden kann. Im Hinblick auf die gesetzliche Vertretung wird bei der Erfüllung von Vermächtnissen das Selbstkontrahierungsverbot relevant und die Autorin hinterfragt die weiteren Schutzmechanismen der Ergänzungspflegschaft und familiengerichtlichen Genehmigung. 257 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Das Buch setzt sich mit der Frage der Berücksichtigung von Steuern im Rahmen der Vorteilsausgleichung näher auseinander. Die zahlreichen Fälle gescheiterter Anlagemodelle zeigen die Schwierigkeiten im Umgang mit der Vorteilsausgleichung immer wieder auf. Auf der Grundlage der stark am Einzelfall o…rientierten Entscheidungen in der Rechtsprechung in Bezug auf die Rückabwicklung von Anlagemodellen mit steuerlichen Effekten entwickelt der Autor Kriterien, anhand derer steuerliche Vorteile berechenbar und sachgerecht im System der schadensrechtlichen Vorteilsausgleichung zu prüfen sind. Er löst dabei die überschlägige Betrachtung der Rechtsprechung auf und betrachtet den Vorteil und den Nachteil eigenständig, um eine einfache Lösung anzubieten. 268 pp. Deutsch.

Aufgrund der Wechselwirkung mit dem MiLoG wurden dabei auch entgeltrelevante Klauseln und Ausschlussfristen neu betrachtet.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents conceptual framework and fundamental principles of social protection in Islamic Law. According to Islamic law, the right to live is a primary human right. This right, granted by God, begins with the right of people to c…ome to Earth and is thus revealed with God's creation of man. According to Islamic law, social protection carries great importance in terms of meeting the needs regarding the preservation of zarûriyyât-i hamse (life, property, intellect, lineage, religion), whose protection is imperative, primarily for the life and maintenance of assets of all humans and for the realization of the right to life.In order for social protection to be able to be provided all over the world, according to Islamic law, the approaches and fundamental principles regarding the outlook on man, property, and life of the religion of Islam must be known and implemented. However, the implementation of these fundamental principles and approaches carry importance to the degree of the religiosity of people and their dependence on religious provisions and will reach the desired results. 92 pp. Englisch.

Three important tragedies deal with the history of the Roman Republic: Coriolanus, Ju…lius Caesar, and Antony and Cleopatra. From the tragedies of Seneca, Shakespeare took the theme of evil in the ruler, as in Richard III and Macbeth. The comedies of Plautus lie behind the early play The Comedy of Errors. From Ovid, Shakespeare took nearly all his Greek mythology, as in the miniature epic Venus and Adonis. Shakespeare, who knew Latin very well, introduced some 600 new Latin-based words into English. 196 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Ever since ancient times, diplomacy has always been the most important form of communication used by state and non-state actors in the process of shaping their mutual relations for making desired non-conflictual state sustainable while pr…otecting their securities and preserving their interests without fighting at all levels. Diplomacy is also regarded as a process which should be conducted in many tracks concurrently. Public diplomacy, as one of those tracks, can be defined as the efforts conducted by state actors towards the foreign public audiences in order to bring multidimensional differences together on common grounds, while opening space to the traditional diplomacy through common social, cultural and humanitarian values. This book compiles the contributions presented at the conference 'The Role of Public Diplomacy in Bringing the Conflicted Communities Together,' organized by Yunus Emre Institute Cultural Diplomacy Academy and Global Public Diplomacy Network, as well as through the valuable contributions of globally recognized academics, diplomats, and practitioners from around the world. The book concentrates mainly on hands-on public diplomacy solutions and discusses public diplomacy as for the strategic engagement process with the conflicted communities. 76 pp. Englisch.

Moreover, neurocognitive studies point to the similarities between music and language processing. Based on the previous literatur…e, the present study focuses on the Turkish immigrant parents' beliefs and practices regarding bilingualism and music education. Interviews, observations and questionnaires are applied to generate qualitative data. Findings indicate that the participants' positive beliefs are influenced by distal factors, such as cultural features, their own backgrounds, and socio-demographical characteristics. However, the lack of their theoretical knowledge regarding the subjects seems to have a negative impact on these beliefs. 178 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The double canoe constituted the backbone of Polynesian culture, since it enabled the Polynesians to enter and conquer the Pacific. In Tonga, a center of Polynesian navigation, two types were known: the tongiaki and the kalia. Cont…rary to most contributions, the author argues that the Tongans were not only the Western Pacific masters of navigation, but also of canoe designing. Typical of Polynesian canoes was the sewing technique which can be traced back to ancient India but was also practiced in Pharanoic Egypt and southern Europe. The legend of the magnetic mountain is to be viewed in this context. Oceanic navigation, which declined during the 19th century, had developed its own means of orientation at sea, including astronomy and meteorology. 178 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Unsettling the Gap: Race, Politics and Indigenous Education examines pressing issues of inequality in education. The notion of gap-and the need to close it-is used widely in public and policy debates to name the nature and scope of… disadvantage. In the competitive world of education, gaps have become associated with students who are seen to be 'falling behind,' 'failing' or 'dropping out.' A global deficit discourse is, therefore, mobilised and normalised. But this discourse has a history and is deeply political. Unsettling the Gap examines this history and how it is politically activated through an analysis of the 'Australian Closing the Gap in Indigenous Disadvantage' policy. In this policy discourse the notion of gap serves as a complex and multiple signifier, attached to individuals, communities and to national history.In unravelling these diverse modalities of gap, the text illuminates the types of ruling binaries that tend to direct dynamics of power and knowledge in a settler colonial context. This reveals not only the features of the crisis of 'Indigenous educational disadvantage' that the policy seeks to address, but the undercurrents of a different type of crisis, namely the authority of the settler colonial state. By unsettling the normalised functions of gap discourse the book urges critical reflections on the problem of settler colonial authority and how it constrains the possibilities of Indigenous educational justice. 204 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The assessment of the challenges of digital platforms for cultural industries raises many different issues. How platforms choices in content pricing affect the overall value of cultural markets, especially in the case where content… just aim at favoring devices' sales How are revenues shared between platforms and content right holders Do creators and artists all benefit from the growth of digital platforms How usual business models of cultural industries have to adapt to the digital paradigm Should we observe rather a reinforcement of the star system or the emergence of a long tail What is the impact on market concentration Could we expect an increase or a decrease in cultural diversity What is the role played by recommender systems, playlists and algorithms in influencing consumers' choices How to implement efficient public policies given the transnational dimension of digital platforms The various papers gathered in this book contribute further to these different topics with a focus on empirical issues. The first part gathers the contributions dealing with the analysis of the impact that digital platforms have on the incumbent or legacy players of the original value chain of content industries: content providers, live entertainment producers, consumers, etc. The second part opens the black box of the ecosystem of digital platforms by studying competition among them and among the business models they adopt, as well as the conditions for the emergence of new players. 186 pp. Englisch, Französisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There is no book exactly like Fifty Years of Interdisciplinary Teaching in Academe: One Professor's Pedagogical Tips and Reflections. Very few professors have taught for half a century. Even fewer have written books on pedagogy fro…m a personal narrative perspective and in plain English, without a particular cause to promote or axe to grind. Countless numbers of books have ruminated on the past, present, and future of higher education, but few authors have written their books as memoirs meant for both an academic and general audience. Few actually offer concrete tips drawn from years of personal experience for classroom teaching, mentoring, constructing curricula, courses, and programs, working with colleagues, and creating an interdisciplinary philosophy of educational theory and practice. Few of these books can be generalized to a number of helping professions. Teaching and learning happen in all the human service professions, not just in the American university.This book is grounded largely in author Robert J. Nash's experiences, both positive and negative. Nash is less interested in propounding or expounding and more concerned with narrating his always-evolving stories of being an interdisciplinary professor who has experienced both success and struggle but who has always emerged as inspired and rejuvenated by his work, and the work of his students, in higher education. This book is a personal-narrative celebration of all that is and can be wonderful about the American university, including students, colleagues, and administrators. Nash concentrates on possibility rather than on liability but strives always to present an honest picture of higher education (both its strengths and weaknesses) and his place in it throughout the decades. The result of Fifty Years of Interdisciplinary Teaching in Academe is a vote of confidence for faculty, staff, and students. 252 pp. Englisch.

The shift to a post-humanist, post-qualitative moment is not just another stage in modernism that seeks to 'improve' knowledge production, but is a shift to understan…ding research as an ontology, a way of being in the world, rather than a mode of production. Fundamental assumptions of research: method, data, analysis, and findings are deconstructed and reconfigured as a mode of relational intra-action.Troubling Method is constructed as a dialogue between the three authors, focusing on their work as qualitative, narrative researchers. The authors revisit six previously published works in which they grapple with the contradictions and ironies of engaging in pragmatist, critical, and feminist qualitative research. After a lengthy introduction which problematizes 'method,' the book is divided into three sections, each with two chapters that are bracketed by an introduction to the issues discussed in the chapters and then a 'dialogue interlude' in which the authors deliberate what makes possible the questions they are raising about method and narrative research. The three sections attend to the central premises of 'narrative research as being': 1) relationships, 2) listening, and 3) unknowing.Troubling Method is ideal for introductory or advanced courses in qualitative research, narrative inquiry, educational research, and those aimed at employing critical theories in qualitative and narrative inquiry. 252 pp. Englisch.

McCarthy as a touchstone, Developing the Whole Person: A Practitioner's Tale of Counseling, College, and the American Promise explores the achievements and difficulties… of postwar counseling psychologists and psychologist-administrators in American higher education. They advanced a whole person development model for student life inside and outside the classroom, despite skepticism from faculty and other administrators and the emergence of a potent student freedom model in the late 1960s that insisted students were adults. These two models have persisted in tension with one another ever since. 358 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Beethoven's seventy-two settings of traditional Irish airs constitute his most prolific output in any genre. The arrangements were commissioned in the early nineteenth century by the Scottish editor and publisher, George Thomson, w…ho sent airs, but no texts, to Beethoven. Poetry, mostly by less well-known poets, was attached to the finished settings before publication by Thomson, and perhaps therein lies the reason why the songs never achieved the popularity which they deserve: many of the poems have been judged to be of inferior quality. In this edition, the first in which all Beethoven's Irish folksong settings are published together, the late baritone, broadcaster and musicologist, Tomás Ó Súilleabháin, selected texts, mostly by Burns and Moore, which he felt were more appropriate to the airs and to Beethoven's settings. 200 pp. Englisch.
