Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Die Exzellenzinitiative beschert der universitären Forschungslandschaft Deutschlands - partiell - enorme Drittmittelzuflüsse. Auf der Habenseite stehen jedoch auch einschneidende Veränderungen, die u.a. den Ökonomisierungsprozess der Hochschulen vorantreiben. Neben Chancen treten wettbewerbliche R…isiken und rechtliche Schwierigkeiten. Der Autor untersucht kompetenzrechtliche Defizite, wobei er die Rolle der DFG in der staatlichen Forschungsförderung und die fehlende parlamentarische Beteiligung beim Abschluss der Initiative in den Blick nimmt. Zudem bewertet er die von der Förderung ausgehenden Gefahren für eine freie Wissenschaft, bestimmt ein Anforderungsniveau für den Grundrechtsschutz im Zusammenhang evaluationsbasierter Forschungsförderung und zeigt Rechtsschutzmöglichkeiten auf. 304 pp. Deutsch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Der jüdische Tanz- und Theaterkritiker Artur Michel gehörte zu den kenntnis- und einflussreichsten Tanzberichterstattern der Weimarer Republik. In diesem Band ist sein Hauptwerk - die Tanzkritiken aus der Vossischen Zeitung zwischen 1922 und 1934 - abgedruckt. Es liest sich als eine spannende und…äußerst lebendige Tanzgeschichte des modernen künstlerischen Tanzes in Europa. Artur Michel entwickelte ab 1922 in der Vossischen Zeitung systematisch die Tanzkritik. Er engagierte sich für den modernen künstlerischen Bühnentanz und trat damit den Freunden des klassischen Balletts kämpferisch entgegen. Sein Idol war Mary Wigman. Ihre Auffassungen eines «absoluten Tanzes» unterstützte er nach Kräften. Die Vossische Zeitung war eine der wichtigsten überregionalen Berliner Tageszeitungen. Sie galt als Sprachrohr des liberalen Bürgertums. Als das Blatt 1934 aus Protest gegen die von den Nationalsozialisten gleichgeschaltete Presse sein Erscheinen einstellte, verlor Michel sein wichtigstes Publikationsorgan. Erst 1941 erkannte er, dass er in Nazi-Deutschland nicht mehr sicher leben konnte und floh in letzter Minute auf abenteuerlichem Weg nach New York. Bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 1946 schrieb er nunmehr in der deutsch-jüdischen Emigrantenzeitschrift Aufbau über den modernen künstlerischen Tanz in den USA. 634 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The modernist movement, in literature as well as in criticism, provides a very instructive case of iconoclastic canon-change and subsequent canon-formation, and modern British literary criticism has been remarkably canon-forming in… its basic tendency. This is particularly true of the line in British criticism that has revealed strong cultural preoccupations primarily centered on the works of T. S. Eliot and F. R. Leavis. George Orwell is a figure in the history of British cultural criticism who links the pre-war and the post-war generations of modernist writers and critics. Raymond Williams is the direct continuator of the line in English literary and cultural criticism formed by Eliot, Lawrence, and Leavis. The first seven of the essays collected in this book deal with Western intellectuals - in fact, with this largely British tradition of cultural criticism. They continue the argument, centered on these main figures, as it has subsequently developed in the works of Christopher Caudwell, E. P. Thompson, Perry Anderson, and John McGrath, among others, and touch upon more contemporary literary and cultural issues. Some of these issues, such as the spread of Islamophobia among a number of contemporary British intellectuals, are also discussed in another chapter in the book, and the division of what may be called the international intelligentsia into radicals, pundits, renegades, and imposters, in another chapter. The last three essays deal with major Arab intellectuals and Arab literary and cultural concerns. They focus mainly on the relationships of these key figures with political power, cultural identity, and exile. 164 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In a society that increasingly touts post-racial and post-feminist discourses, the trope of monstrosity becomes a way to critically examine contemporary meanings around race, class, gender, sexuality, and ability. Focusing on ways…in which historically marginalized groups appropriate monstrosity as a means of resistance, as well as on how we can understand oppression and privilege through monstrosity, this book offers another way to conceptualize the politics of representation. Through critical analyses of experiences of women of color in the academy, the media framing of alleged Aurora shooter James Holmes, the use of monstrosity in unpublished work from the Gloria Anzaldúa archives, post-feminist discourses in American Mary and The Lords of Salem, and Kanye West's strategic employment of ideologies of monstrosity, this book offers new ways to think about Otherness in this contemporary moment. 150 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Pedagogy for Restoration seeks to understand the conditions leading to the destruction of Earth in order to discover pedagogy for restoration. As we degrade the planet we degrade ourselves and as we degrade ourselves we degrade the… planet. Moral development and socialization significantly influence our participation in, construction of, or resistance to the systems of oppression that degrade us. The process of restorative education recognizes that humans are fundamentally good and moral and seeks to promote healthy moral development. We must help students meet their basic needs, center their own identities and experience, and simultaneously emphasize community and relationships to help them find a sense of purpose. These efforts facilitate social and ecological restoration by allowing students to reach a physical and emotional place that is conducive to learning and self-efficacy so that they may engage with whatever issues they find important in their own way and on their own terms. 256 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book contributes significantly to the conversation about inclusion as a critical component of school culture. Educating All recounts Christopher McMaster's experience as a critical ethnographer in a school community, given the… task of not only studying the institution's culture, but of creating change as well. The school used a whole-school framework known as the Index for Inclusion, which addressed students identified as having «special» or learning needs. The outcome of this process was the realization that the faculty and the system were not adequately providing optimum services to «special needs» students. By incorporating the special needs unit into a larger department and by utilizing it as a teaching center rather than a classroom, the staff and school leadership were able to produce a better alignment of value and practice and to provide a re-interpretation of just what is meant by «mainstream». 180 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This collection investigates the publics of the hashtag. Taking cues from critical public sphere theory, contributors are interested in publics that break beyond the mainstream - in other publics. They are interested in the kinds o…f publics that do politics in a way that is rough and emergent, flawed and messy, and ones in which new forms of collective power are being forged on the fly and in the shadow of loftier mainstream spheres. Hashtags are deictic, indexical - yet what they point to is themselves, their own dual role in ongoing discourse. Focusing on hashtags used for topics from Ferguson, Missouri, to Australian politics, from online quilting communities to labour protests, from feminist outrage to drag pop culture, this collection follows hashtag publics as they trend beyond Twitter into other spaces of social networking such as Facebook, Instagram, and Tumblr as well as other media spaces such as television, print, and graffiti. 293 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Socialist Literature studies the relationship between the development of socialist literary theory and the process of cultural transformation in modern society by tracing the outline of the theory in the works of Marx, Lenin, and M…ao, and examining its reflection in actual works of literature. This analysis is set alongside a detailed examination of the literary part of the cultural superstructure in China and in the Soviet Union. Among the major literary and theoretical works discussed are The Communist Manifesto, Talks at the Yenan Forum on Literature and Art, Gorky's Mother, and the poetry of Mayakovsky. Key issues, like the position of the writer in society, the relationship of the old and the new in literature, and the much discussed relationship between the «creator» and the «audience», are examined and explained in a different light by regarding them as more than purely theoretical issues or abstract cultural problems and, instead, considering them as social issues that can only be settled at the level of practice. Abdulla Al-Dabbagh amplifies the area of research by discussing some of the major opposing positions to the theory outlined and, by examining at length the portrayal of proletarian heroism, one of its key concepts, in the literary works of the same epoch. The result of the close textual analysis of a large number of major works of poetry, drama, and fiction reveals the course of the artistic development to be complementary to that of the theoretical advance. 234 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The revolution in media technologies and the political upheavals intertwined with them demand a new media ethics. Given the power of global media corporations and the high-speed electronics of media technologies worldwide, more and… more people are either brought together through dialogue and communication technologies or assimilated by them into a dominant culture. In cultural conflict all over the world, people tend to emphasize absolute differences when they express themselves, and under conditions of censorship and oppression citizens are increasingly prone to violence. To take seriously dramatic technological changes in a complicated world of cultural diversity, media ethics does not simply need to be updated but moved forward in a new intercultural direction. The Ethics of Intercultural Communication presents a futuristic model for doing so. Focusing on Oriental and Western cultures, the book's key case studies are China, North America, and Europe, where intercultural issues are relevant to an increasingly borderless world. Chapters focusing on a single nation or culture analyze findings from a cross-cultural perspective. Comparative studies appeal to transnational theories and norms. Multi-ethnic voices in any community are increasingly understood as essential for a healthy society, and the media's ability to represent these voices well is an important arena for professional development and for enriching media codes of ethics. The news media are responsible for mapping the profound changes taking place and this book teaches us how. 402 pp. Englisch.

Aber die Abhandlung über den englisch-deutschen Bildungsvergleich von Hecht ist run…d 20 Jahre älter und in einer sozialhistorischen Situation entstanden, als die alteuropäische Ordnung der Nationen und Staaten in die internationale Ordnung der Nationalstaaten überging. Das Buch bietet eine genaue Betrachtung des Textes von Friedrich August Hecht. Comparatists of education usually assume that the research program published by Jullien in 1817 is the beginning of comparative education. But the text by Hecht comparing English and German school education is about 20 years older. It originates in a socio-historical situation when the old European order of nations and states is transformed into the new international order of nation states. The present volume offers a close look at the treatise by Friedrich August Hecht. 176 pp. Englisch, Deutsch, Latein.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Research on translation and music has so far focused mainly on 'art music' and on issues such as quality, singability and accessibility. Studies which seek to embed translation and music within their historical and sociocultural co…ntexts are relatively rare. This book aims to shed light on how translations of popular music contribute to fostering international relations by focusing on a case study of Turkish-Greek rapprochement in the last two decades. It provides a brief account of the thaw in relations between the two countries and then examines the ways in which translation and music have played a role in these changes. By looking at the phenomenon through the music's various forms of materiality (on paper, in audio and through the internet) and the different forms the accompanying translations take, and by drawing on a range of disciplines (popular music studies, sociology of music, ethnomusicology, social anthropology, comparative literature and fan studies), the book aims to foreground the multifaceted nature of translation and music and their wide-ranging impact on society and international relations. 194 pp. Englisch.

Pritchett's short fiction reestablishes both authors as important contributors to the history of the short story form. It also discusses how writers, who did not belong to the mo…dernist avant-garde innovation, address the problems of the short story form in the twentieth century. The study takes a close look at the uses of the ordinary and analyses character, setting, and event presentation, narrators, audiences, narrativity, eventfulness, causality, and narrative rhetoric. It presents two kinds of short fiction and two kinds of the ordinary: the ecstatic one, focused on violations of norm, and the static kind that reassures its patterns. 232 pp. Englisch.

It presents readings of well-known authors such as Witold Gombrowicz or of authors gaining international fa…me such as Miron Bialoszewski, as well as essays on other important, but less known Polish writers. The book also offers theoretical ideas relevant outside the Polish context: the idea of 'homoinfluence', the 'enigmatic signifier' and its role in 'paranoid cultures', the overlapping of Jewishness and queer, the discussion of queer fables for children, or the new approach to the idea of 'camp' and its relation to commodity fetishism. 252 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the early months of the German occupation during WWII, many of Europe's major cities witnessed anti-Jewish riots, anti-Semitic incidents, and even pogroms carried out by the local population. Who took part in these excesses, and what w…as their attitude towards the Germans Were they guided or spontaneous What part did the Germans play in these events and how did they manipulate them for their own benefit Delving into the source material for Warsaw, Paris, The Hague, Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Kaunas, this study is the first to take a comparative look at these questions. Looking closely at events many would like to forget, the volume describes various characters and their stories, revealing some striking similarities and telling differences, while raising tantalising questions. 218 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Amharc Éireann film series (literally translated as Views/Visions of Ireland) was a cultural nationalist project sponsored by Gael Linn, an organization whose mandate was the revitalization of the Irish language through the use… of modern media and technology. It was produced by Colm Ó Laoghaire, a member of a well-known Irish literary and nationalist family, the Plunketts. As the first and longest-running Irish-language documentary and news-film series, Amharc Éireann represented an attempt on the part of a few committed Irish-language enthusiasts to present Ireland to the Irish in a way that would instil a sense of pride in the country, and to promote the language in a way that the public would accept. Created during a period of rapid social, economic and political change, it reflects and records the dramatic transformation of Ireland from a rural, underdeveloped and relatively isolated nation into a modern member of the international economic and political community. This book, the first full-length investigation of the Amharc Éireann series as a historical artefact, makes an original and important contribution to our understanding of the complexities of twentieth-century Irish history. 304 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -La sémantique contemporaine est traversée par un paradoxe rarement posé en l'état : si une majorité des linguistes ont admis avec Saussure (au moins depuis la publication des Écrits de linguistique générale ) que toute appréhension du lan…gage est tributaire d'un point de vue, ces mêmes linguistes considèrent comme une évidence l'existence de propriétés intrinsèques des lexèmes et des textes. Or ceux-ci ne nous sont jamais accessibles qu'à travers une lecture. Dans ce bref ouvrage, à travers des études sur les adjectifs dérivés de noms d'auteur, sur l'usage des expressions figées dans la bande-dessinée et sur leur devenir, mais encore sur des poèmes médiévaux relevant du non-sens, nous voudrions justement nous interroger sur cette tension entre propriétés des lexèmes et des textes d'une part et, d'autre part, parcours interprétatifs. 138 pp. Französisch.
