Symbiotic Autoethnography Moving Beyond the Boundaries of Qualitative Methodologies

Liana Beattie, Edge Hill University, UK

Drawing on the vast diversity of researchers’ opinions on autoethnographic praxes, this book presents a cogent analysis of the ongoing debates in the field. It discusses a new approach to both theorizing about and ‘doing’ autoethnography: a ‘symbiotic autoethnography’. This approach synthesizes central aspects from the diversity of existing arguments into one adaptable framework, organically combining all the key characteristic features of autoethnographic research. Beattie uses the concept of ‘symbiosis’ in its broader sense to denote close interdependence and interrelation between its suggested six attributes, including temporality, researcher’s omnipresence, evocative storytelling, interpretative analysis, political (transformative) focus, and reflexivity.

National Security Surveillance in Southern Africa

An Anti-Capitalist Perspective

Jane Duncan, University of Johannesburg

The author uses southern Africa as a backdrop, and its liberation history, to examine what an anticapitalist perspective on intelligence and security powers could look like. Southern Africa faces no major terrorism threats at the moment, which should make it easier to develop clearer anti-surveillance campaigns than in Europe or the US. Yet, because of tactical and strategic ambivalence about security powers, movements often engage in limited calls for intelligence and policing reforms, and fail to provide an alternative vision for policing and intelligence. National Security Surveillance in Southern Africa examines what that vision could look like.

Autocratization in Contemporary Uganda

Clientelism, Coercion and Social Control

Edited by Moses Khisa, North Carolina State University, USA

The Autocratic Turn in Uganda analyses two interrelated outcomes: autocratisation, manifest in the deepening of personalist rule or Musevenism, and the regime resilience that has made Museveni one of Africa's current-longest surviving rulers. How has this feat been possible, and what has been the trajectory of Museveni’s increasingly autocratic rule?

The Peacekeeping Failure in South Sudan

The UN, Bias and the Peacekeeper's Mind

Mark Millar, Norwegian Refugee Council

Using firsthand accounts from senior UN officials, and referencing hitherto unseen UN documents, this book explores the role of the UN peacekeeping mission in Sudan, and its ultimate failure. It challenges the resignation with which many in academia and the media greeted the underperformance of the peacekeepers. It suggests that, even while under-resourced, they could have done much more to prevent bloodshed in the new country and protected civilians from the chaos of the first years of the conflict.

This book offers an overview of these pioneering practices through a specifically pedagogical lens, fostering an appreciation of the diversity and distinctiveness of contemporary archaeology and providing an evidence base for course proposals and curriculum design.

Subsistence Strategies and Craft Production at the Ancient Egyptian Ramesside Fort of Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham

Nicky Nielsen, University of Manchester, UK

Drawing on more than 20 years of archaeological study and investigation at Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham by a team from the University of Liverpool (led by Professor Steven Snape), this book paints a nuanced picture of daily life not only at this liminal military site, but also in Ramesside Egypt more broadly. Constructed during the reign of Ramesses II, the fortified settlement was situated 300 kilometres west of Alexandria and represents the furthest western outpost of the Egyptian New Kingdom empire. Excavations in Area K of the fortress have uncovered extensive evidence for the living arrangements, minor industries, food production and daily life of the fort’s inhabitants.

Living Latin Everyday Language and Popular Culture

Charlie Kerrigan, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland

Surveying the whole span of the language’s history, Kerrigan explores the evidence that exists for ordinary Latin around the Roman world. And of course Latin lived on: this book revisits what happened to the language after the Roman empire. Kerrigan's strong and attractive case for a new conception of Latin sends out a call to arms to reevaluate the place of Latin in history. On the one hand, an interesting and readable history of the language, on the other, this book sets out to provoke questions for readers, students and teachers of Latin, as well as anyone interested in the ancient Mediterranean world. Latin was and should always be for all

Linda Jones Hall, St Mary’s College of Maryland, USA

For the first time, the poems and accompanying letters of Publilius Optatianus Porfyrius (Optatian) are published here with a translation and detailed commentary, along with a full introduction to Optatian’s work during this period. Optatian was sent into exile by Constantine sometime after the Emperor’s ascent to power in Rome in 313 AD. Hoping to receive pardon, Optatian sent a gift of probably twenty design poems to Constantine around the time of the ruler’s twentieth anniversary (325/326 AD).

Latin Political Propaganda in the War of the Spanish Succession and Its Aftermath, 1700-1740

Alejandro Coroleu, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain

Latin Political Propaganda offers the first comprehensive study of the central role played by the Latin language to celebrate or undermine political power during the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1715). Waged as much on the printed page as on the battlefield, this worldwide conflict gave rise to an astonishing variety of Latin writing across the Continent. This vast textual corpus ranges from official documents, epic, satirical and panegyric poetry to defamatory pamphlets, letters, historiographical and juridical tracts, medals and ephemeral architecture.

Presenting the text of a notorious Jesuit attack on Queen Elizabeth I’s treatment of her Catholic subjects, this volume highlights the European context of the English Reformation and Robert Persons’s role as propagandist. In De persecutione Anglicana, Robert Persons (1546–1610) graphically describes the conditions in prisons, the harassment of Catholics at home and the gruesome manner of execution for treason. The work culminates in the arrest and execution of the famous Jesuit martyr Edmund Campion.

The ancient comedy is a fascinating insight into demagoguery and political rhetoric in classical Athens. These are subjects that resonate with a modern audience more now than ever before.

Praise and Blame in Greek Tragedy

Kate Cook, University of St Andrews, UK

Exploring the use of praise and blame in Greek tragedy in relation to heroic identity, Kate Cook demonstrates that the distribution of praise and blame, a significant social function of archaic and classical poetry, also plays a key role in Greek tragedy. Both concepts are a central part of the discourse surrounding the identity of male heroic figures in tragedy, and thus are essential for understanding a range of tragedies in their literary and social contexts. In the tragic genre, the destructive or dangerous aspects of the process of kleos (glory) are explored, and the distribution of praise and blame becomes a way of destabilising identity and conflict between individuals in democratic Athens.

Temporalities, Texts, Ideologies

Ancient and Early-Modern Perspectives

Edited by Bobby Xinyue, King's College London, UK

Temporalities, Texts, Ideologies provides a new analysis of the significance of time in Classical and early modern literature, demonstrating that literary temporality continually intervenes in questions of ontology, hierarchy and politics. Examining a diverse range of texts from Homeric epic to eighteenth-century poems on the Last Judgement, this collection of essays contends that temporality in literature sits at the heart of how authors from antiquity through to the early modern period understood and negotiated the structures that shaped their lives and may shape lives to come.

Land Expropriation in Ancient Rome and Contemporary Zimbabwe Veterans, Masculinity and War

Obert Bernard Mlambo, University of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe

"This remarkable and novel study highlights the potential for mutually illuminating comparison between Roman and African historical experiences." Dominic Rathbone, Professor of Ancient History, King's College London, UK

In this highly original book, Obert Bernard Mlambo offers a comparative and critical examination of the relationship between military veterans and land expropriation in the client-army of the 1st-century BC Roman Republic and veterans of the Zimbabwean liberation war. This study contributes to current efforts to decolonise knowledge construction by revealing that a non-Western perspective can broaden our understanding of veterans, war, violence, land and gender in classical culture.

Money, Warfare and Power in the Ancient World Studies in Honour of Matthew Freeman

Trundle

Edited by Jeremy Armstrong, University of Auckland, New Zealand, Arthur J. Pomeroy, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. & David Rosenbloom, University of Maryland, Baltimore County, USA

Money, Warfare and Power in the Ancient World offers eleven papers analysing the processes, consequences and problems involved in the monetization of warfare and its connection to political power in antiquity. The contributions explore not only how powerful men and states used money and coinage to achieve their aims, but how these aims and methods had often already been shaped by the medium of coined money – typically with unintended consequences.

Phryne A Life in Fragments

Melissa Funke, University of Winnipeg, Canada

How did Mnesarete, a girl from Boeotia, turn into Phryne the famous beauty, and how did she end up as an enduring symbol of ancient Greek culture? This book pieces together the story of the notorious fourth-century Athenian sex worker, Phryne. It considers her early life and her development into a cultural figure, whose influence and legacy have lasted from her own lifetime to the present day. It also investigates her infamous nude courtroom appearance, her influence on one of the most well-known statues from antiquity and her connection to celebrated figures from Alexander the Great to the artist Apelles.

Seafaring and Mobility in the Late Antique Mediterranean

Edited by Antti Lampinen, Finnish Institute at Athens, Greece & Emilia Mataix Ferrándiz, Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies, University of Helsinki, Finland

This volume advances a new and interdisciplinary understanding of what the sea as an environment and the pursuit of seafaring meant to Late Antique societies, drawing on a range of literary and archaeological evidence to explore the social, economic and cultural factors at play. The contributions are structured into three thematic parts which move from a broad consideration of the Mediterranean as an environment to specific questions of networks, mobility and the practicalities of travel, trade and warfare.

The term "radical formalism" refers to strategies aimed at defamiliarising and revitalising conventional modes of formalistic reading and theorising form. These strategies disrupt and unsettle established norms while incorporating a metadiscursive awareness of their broader political implications. This volume presents a radical reconceptualisation of literary works from Greek and Roman antiquity. Engaging in an ongoing dialogue with critical theory and postcritique, as well as drawing inspiration from traditions rooted in Black art, poetry and philosophy—both directly and indirectly connected to the classical tradition—the essays in this collection explore subversions of canonical norms and resistances to the hegemony of textual order.

Women in Classical Video Games

The Alcaic Metre in the English Imagination

Edited by Jane

University of Glasgow, UK & Kate Cook, University of St Andrews, UK

Despite the prevalence of video games set in or inspired by classical antiquity, the medium has to date remained markedly understudied in the disciplines of classics and ancient history, with the role of women in these video games especially neglected. Women in Classical Video Games seeks to address this imbalance as the first book-length work of scholarship to examine the depiction of women in video games set in classical antiquity.

Air Conditioning

Hsuan L. Hsu, University of California, Davis

Air conditioning aspires to be unnoticed. Yet, by manipulating the air around us, it quietly conditions the baseline conditions of our physical, mental, and emotional experience. From offices and libraries to contemporary art museums and shopping malls, climate control systems shore up the fantasy of a comfortable, self-contained body that does not have to reckon with temperature. Yet air conditioning isn’t for everybody: its reliance on carbon fuels divides the world into habitable, climate-controlled bubbles and increasingly uninhabitable environments where AC is unavailable. Hsuan Hsu's Air Conditioning explores questions about culture, ethics, ecology, and social justice raised by the history and uneven distribution of climate controlling technologies.

Magazine

Jeff Jarvis, City University of New York, USA

For a century, magazines were the authors of culture and taste, of intelligence and policy, until they were overthrown by the voices of the public themselves online. From TV critic and creator of Entertainment Weekly at Time, Inc, here is a tribute to all that magazines were, from their origins in London and on Ben Franklin’s press; through their boom — enabled by new technologies — as creators of a new media aesthetic and a new mass culture; into their opulent days in advertising-supported conglomerates; and finally to their fall at the hands of the inter net.

Relic

Every culture, every religion, every time period has enshrined otherwise regular objects with a significance which gestures beyond their literal importance. Whether the bone of a Catholic martyr, the tooth of a Buddhist lama, or the cloak of a Sufi saint, relics are material conduits to the immaterial world. Yet relics aren't just a feature of religion; the exact same sense of the transcendent animates objects of political, historical, and cultural significance. Relics are the objects which the faithful understand as being more than just objects. Material things of sacred importance, relics are indicative of a culture's deepest values.

At a time when many use cellphones as banking branches and instructors reach students online throughout the world, pencil use has not waned, as tens of millions of pencils are made and used annually.

Sheila T. Cavanagh, Emory University, USA

How can Shakespearean performance be used with different communities to assist personal growth and development, while advancing social justice goals?

Employing an integrative approach that draws from science, actor training, therapeutical practices and current research on the senses, this study reveals the work being done by drama practitioners with a range of specialized populations, such as incarcerated people, neurodiverse individuals, those with physical or emotional disabilities, veterans, people experiencing homelessness and many others. With insights drawn from visits to numerous international programs, it argues that these endeavors succeed when they engage multiple human senses and incorporate kinesthetic learning.

Women and Indian Shakespeares

Edited by Thea Buckley, Queen’s University Belfast, UK, Mark Thornton Burnett, Queen's University Belfast, UK, Sangeeta Datta, Independent filmmaker & Rosa García-Periago, University of Murcia, Spain

This collection of essays explores the multiple ways in which women are, and have been, engaged with Shakespeare in India from the 18th century to the present. Uncovering a unique history of women as creators of Shakespeare in an Indian milieu, it spotlights the ways in which women are figured in Indian Shakespeares – as resistant agents, marital seductresses, redemptive daughters, fetishized objects, victims of caste discrimination, conflicted spaces and global citizens.

of

The play is published here as a Methuen Drama Student Edition with commentary and notes by Henry Bell.

In an oak-panelled room in a rural Oxford gastropub, ten young undergraduates with cut-glass vowels and deep pockets are meeting, intent on restoring their right to 'rule'. Members of The Riot Club, an elite student dining society, the fraternity starts to fray rather when they discover they're a guinea-fowl short and the prostitute they've hired is suddenly banished. A spoof on Oxford's notorious Bullingdon Club, Posh is a satirical play about power, politics and privilege, and how these interact within British institutions.

Revolt. She said. Revolt again

In her award-winning play, Alice Birch examines the language, behaviour and forces that shape women in the 21st century. The play asks what's stopping us from doing something truly radical to change them? It is published here in a Student Edition alongside commentary and notes by Marissia Fragkou, who considers the play's political and cultural context (including second- and third-wave feminism, and the #MeToo movement) plus interrogates the play's use of language, form and structure, and how the various productions have been critically received across the world.

Amongst a raft of anonymous Air BnBs in Edinburgh’s New Town, thirty-something Zara is running her own business and trying to make her way in the world. A new client has just arrived, but her colleague is running late. Tensions are high. Oh, and the business is a brothel, the client is her old teacher, and her colleague is having a panic about his fear of the inevitability of ageing. Kieran Hurley's ADULTS explores the growing gulf between the generations, the futility of blame culture, and how we need to make things better for those who will come after us.

An Oak Tree

Tim Crouch

A man loses his daughter to a car accident. Nothing now is what it seems. It’s like he’s in a play - but he doesn’t know the words or the moves.

Tim Crouch’s critically acclaimed play playfully pushes the limits of theatre: a two-hander, where one of the actors walk on stage having neither seen nor read a word of the play they’re in… until they’re in it.

Kwame Kwei-Armah

1959. The first wave of independence is sweeping across Africa and Beneatha has left the prejudice of 1950s America for a brighter future with her Nigerian husband in Lagos.

Inspired Lorraine Hansberry's ground-breaking modern classic, A Raisin in the Sun, Beneatha’s Place challenges today’s culture wars about colonial history and reckoning with the past.

School is a nightmare, boys are infuriating and maccies is the only place open after 6pm. Growing up isn’t easy, but it’s even harder when you are from a place where no one expects anything of you - and especially if you’re queer or the new girl at school.

Beth, Rachel, Zahidah, Ellie and Chloe are stuck, stuck in their drama group, stuck in school and stuck in their small town which doesn’t even have a Nando's. Our Town Needs a Nando's is written by Samantha O'Rourke, alumni of the Young Everyman Playhouse programme.

The Empress

Tanika Gupta

Through narrative, music and song, The Empress blends the true story of Queen Victoria’s controversial relationship with her Indian servant and ‘Munshi’ (teacher), Abdul Karim, with the experiences of Indian ayahs who came to Britain during the 19th century. With private romance being mapped onto world history, the action cuts between the ship and different royal residences, offering bright contrasts as well as surprising affinities. In doing so, the play uncovers remarkable unknown stories of 19th-century Britain and charts the growth of Indian nationalism and the romantic proclivities of one of Britain's most surprising monarchs.

In the months directly following the Revolution, Russia annexed Crimea, and war broke out in the Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region between the Ukrainian army and Russian-backed separatists.

What Would Garrick Do? Or, Acting Lessons from the Eighteenth Century

James Harriman-Smith

Across five chapters, this book introduces readers to the eighteenth-century stage and the ideas that governed it before presenting a series of exercises developed in collaboration with professional actors and directors from the period’s vast corpus of writing about acting. These exercises can be employed singly or combined into an iterative rehearsal process; they are also open to further adaptation and analysis as part of a work that treats theatre writers of the past as potential collaborators for those interested in theatre today.

The Accidental Producer How Anyone Can Get Their Show on Stage

Tim

A practical guide to small-scale theatre producing, focusing on exactly what is required to make your show a success. It recognises that smaller-scale fringe theatre works differently from the commercial or subsidized sectors, and offers advice on how to embrace that. Readers might be creatives with a singular interest in producing, or they might be artists who haven't considered producing as a career, but aren’t getting the jobs they want and have the passion and drive to make the work happen themselves.

Acting is Your Business How to Take Charge of Your Creative Career

Wendy S. Kurtzman, UCLA, Chapman University and Pace University, USA

While performing arts schools do a great job of teaching students how to act, most don’t teach them how to launch and sustain a career. This book addresses this fundamental aspect of the creative journey. It delivers a formula based on the syllabus Kurtzman has taught for years, arguing that if acting is your business, you must run it as a business. Positioning you as CEO of your own company, it uses a boardroom table as a visual model with 7 key positions, each representing an area of expertise that you must understand and manage to build a successful career.

Imagining five artist-mystics as a hierophantic faculty in a mystery school, Gough creates a series of lectures that move in that liminal space between skepticism and knowledge to ask questions about subjectivity, personhood and the necessity of staying in relationship with the unknown world. These figures are: Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179), the first-known musical composer; Eleanora Duse (1858-1924), the first modern actor in the Western world; Simone Weil (1909-1943), philosopher, activist and mystic; Marina Abramovic (b. 1946), “the grandmother of performance art”; and Hilma af Klint (1862-1944), the first-known abstract painter.

National Identity and the British Musical

From Blood Brothers to Cinderella

Grace Barnes

Through case studies and analysis of British musicals such as Blood Brothers, Cinderella, Half a Sixpence and Billy Elliot, this book examines the place of the British musical within a text-based theatrical heritage and asks what, or whose, Britain is being represented by home grown musicals. The sheer number of people engaging with shows bestows enormous power upon the genre and yet critics display a reluctance to analyse the cultural meanings produced by new work, or to hold work to account for production teams and narratives which continue to shun diversity and inclusive practices.

Contemporary British Musicals: ‘Out of the Darkness’

The shortest runs can have the longest legacies: for too long, scholarship surrounding British musical theatre has coalesced around the biggest names, ignoring important works that perhaps aren’t given the critical insights they deserve.

Through academic interrogation and industry insight, this unique collection of essays recognizes these works, shining a light on their creative achievements and long legacies. Touching on key, hit shows such as SIX, Everybody's Talking About Jamie, The Grinning Man and Bend it Like Beckham, each chapter discusses different theatrical elements, from dramaturgy and musicology to reception.

Over the last decade, the role of the dramaturg has become more common in the theatrical process, but it is still a new term for many theatregoers. Theatre and Dramaturgy offers a working definition of what dramaturgy means, and asks how understanding theatre from the perspective of dramaturgy can help us understand the world around us.

Margaret Werry

This volume offers insight into the historical and contemporary entanglement of theatre and tourism, and speculates about the future as emerging technologies reshape both industries, offering new experiences of presence, embodiment, and mobility. Theatre and Tourism begins by presenting the concept of the “touristic”, together with a brisk survey of tourism theory and relevant works in performance and theatre studies. It then offers three chapters, each contextualizing its central questions with a range of examples from geopolitically diverse sites, before closely reading an example based on original research.

Theatre and Travel

Fiona Wilkie

Theatre and Travel aims to persuade you that it is impossible to untether both the history and the contemporary experience of theatre from travel, and invites you to think about both the effects that travel has on theatre and the effects that theatre, because of its travels, can have on our understanding of the world.

The volume poses a number of questions: what is the relationship between touring and other kinds of theatre work? How should theatre circulate, and how are we to understand this circulation? What impact do touring routes and agendas have beyond the dissemination of what’s on stage? What frictions sometimes hinder theatre’s travels? Whose travel stories get told within the theatre, and by whom?

This is the first book to examine how the concept and disagreements around post-truth have been explored in the world of theater and performance. With contributions by scholars from around the world, Theater in a Post-Truth World considers a wide array of examples from American and British drama and politics, Australian theater, and the work of performance artist Marina Abramovic. Together these provide a glimpse into how the theater in its many forms provides a venue to raise awareness and encourage critical thinking about the contemporary ubiquity of post-truth.

The Theatre and its Double Antonin Artaud

This new translation of Artaud's canonical text from 1938 retains the idiosyncratic nature of some of the author's writing while communicating the fervour and ambition that it contained. Translated into a contemporary English that accurately conveys the detail and impact of the original, this is the first English-language version of The Theatre and its Double to be at once faithful to the original and more easy for today's readers to understand. A welcome addition any theatre-lover's or student's bookshelf, this is a much-needed opportunity to gain clear and faithful insights into Artaud's theatre.

Spectatorship and the Real in French Contemporary Theatre

Amélie Mons

• £45.00 / $61.00

This book explores how avant-garde directors in French theatre play on their audiences’ frustration to generate an encounter with the real. Focusing on directors such as Gisèle Vienne, Jan Lauwers, Rodrigo Garcia, Jan Fabre and Romeo Castellucci, it looks at how they manipulate their audiences to experience a raw perception of materiality on stage set within narratives of mystery and the uncanny. It examines how directors implement strategies on stage to trigger such experiences, while evaluating how problematic they can be. It develops critical and philosophical tools to help spectators better engage with these contemporary practices.

Theatre with a Purpose

Amateur Drama in Britain 1919-1949

Don Watson, Independent scholar

This is the first book to offer a sustained focus on the amateur theatre movement in Britain from the end of WWI to the end of WWII, a movement that flourished and led to more people in Britain involved in drama than at any time before or since. It reveals how it was promoted as a tool for social action and improvement and evaluates its success and legacy. By surveying the contribution of key individuals, organisations and the role of festivals and competitions, this book provides a comprehensive account of this transformative movement and period.

The Art Gallery on Stage New Vistas on Contemporary British Playwriting

Mariacristina Cavecchi

In the first book to consider the representation of the art gallery on the contemporary British stage, we come to see how the art gallery has interacted with the contemporary British stage in the last four decades, whether as inspiration, location, focus or theme in an evermore intense game of cross-fertilization. We come to understand how modern drama can offer a set of interpretative tools to enhance our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the social construction of art and, furthermore, the potential of theatre and the gallery space to question our fundamental cultural assumptions and values.

Postdramatic Theatre and India

Theatre-Making Since the 1990s

Ashis Sengupta, University of North Bengal, India

None of the Indian theatre-makers consciously built their works on the Euro-American model of the postdramatic, but many have used the theatre model in innovative, transnational ways. Essentially, they have adapted an originally European theatre paradigm to a different historical context and added new dimensions to it by crosspollinating it with indigenous cultural forms. This book balances theory, contextualisation and praxis, building a hitherto non-existing archive of scholarship in Indian theatre within a postdramatic framework and an argument for its place within contemporary Indian theatre. Interspersed throughout are Indian theatre-makers’ opinions about their contemporary performance theory and practices.

Holocaust Memory and Youth Performance

Erika Hughes, University of Portsmouth, UK

The first critical examination of youth-focused plays and performances about the Holocaust, this volume considers works by young authors as well as pieces taken from the diaries and memoirs of children and adolescents who experienced the Holocaust. While youth-focused plays about the Holocaust have been in the repertories of top professional companies throughout the world for decades and are often performed in theatres, schools and community centers, they are frequently neglected in studies of Holocaust theatre. Hughes fills this gap by examining plays, musicals, performances, scripts, performative museum installations and pedagogically-focused works of applied theatre for young audiences.

Identity, Culture, and the Science Performance, Volume 1

From the Lab to the Streets

Edited by Vivian Appler, University of Georgia, USA & Meredith Conti, University at Buffalo, SUNY, USA

The first of two volumes dedicated to the diverse sociocultural work of science-oriented performance. A dynamic volume of scholarly essays, interviews with scientists and artists, and creative entries, it examines explicitly public-facing science performances that operate within and for specialist and non-specialist populations. The book’s chapters variously trace the theatrical and ethical contours of live science events, reenact historical stagings of scientific expertise, and demonstrate the pedagogical and activist potentials in performing science in community settings.

A Cultural History of Tragedy in Antiquity

Edited by Emily Wilson, University of Pennsylvania, USA

Covering the period from 500 BCE to 1000 AD, this volume examines tragedy in antiquity, from its misty origins in Greece, through its central position in the civic life of ancient Athens and its performances across the Greek-speaking world, to its instantiations in Republican and Imperial Roman contexts.

Lively, original essays by eminent scholars trace the shifting dramatic forms, performance environments, and social meanings of tragedy as it was repeatedly reinvented.

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Age of Enlightenment

Edited

Covering the period between 1400 and 1650, this volume includes eight lively, original essays which trace the kaleidoscopically shifting dramatic forms, performance contexts, and social implications of tragedy throughout the Early Modern period and across geographic, political, and social references.

They attend not only to the familiar cultural lenses of English and mainstream Continental dramas but also to less familiar European exempla from Croatia and Hungary.

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Age of Empire

Edited by Michael Gamer, University of Pennsylvania, USA & Diego Saglia, University of Parma, Italy

Covering the period from 1800 to 1920, this volume traces the metamorphoses of tragedy in Western cultures during the bourgeois age of nations, revolutions, and empires, roughly defined by the French Revolution and the First World War. Its narrative focuses on hybridization extending across media, genres, demographics, faiths both religious and secular, and national boundaries.

The essays also tell a story of how tragedy and the tragic offered multiple means of capturing the increasingly fragmented perception of reality and history that emerged in the 19th century.

Edited by Mitchell Greenberg, Cornell University, USA

Covering the period between 1650 and 1800, this volume is bookended by two shockingly similar historical events: the beheading of a king, Charles I of England in 1649 and Louis XIV of France in 1793. This volume examines the way in which tragedy, which had dominated the European stage at the beginning of this period of enormous political, social and economic changes, gradually saw itself replaced by new literary forms, culminating in the gradual decline of theatrical tragedy from the heights it had reached in the 1660s.

A Cultural History of Tragedy in the Modern Age

Edited by Jennifer Wallace, Peterhouse College, University of Cambridge, UK

Covering the period from 1920 to the present, this volume considers the degree to which the definitions, forms and media of tragedy were transformed in the modern period and how far the tragic tradition still spoke to 20th- and 21st-century challenges. While theater remains the primary focus, the essays also cover tragic representation in film, art and installation, photography, fiction and creative non-fiction, documentary reporting, political theory and activism. It also reflects increasing globalization, including intercultural encounters, various forms of hybridity, and postcolonial tragic representations.

Lelia Green, Edith Cowan University, Australia, Leslie Haddon, London School of Economics, UK, Donell Holloway, Edith Cowan University, Australia, Sonia Livingstone, London School of Economics, UK, Brian O’Neill, Technological University Dublin, Ireland & Kylie Stevenson, Edith Cowan University, Australia

Including a glossary of key terms, this book draws on a three-year research project examining the realities of 0-5 years olds’ experiences of these technologies in the UK and Australia. The authors draw heavily on Vygotsky and engage with other thinkers including Bronfenbrenner and Bruner. It explores how parents of young children evaluate these opportunities and concerns, and how they try to work out ways to parent in relation to technologies they did not experience in their own childhood. The book examines how digital technologies fit in with other elements of children’s daily lives including their preferences, pleasures and sociability.

A Critical Anthropology of Childhood in Haiti

Emotion, Power, and White Saviours

Diane M. Hoffman

This book offers a critical anthropological perspective on contemporary childhood in Haiti. It is based on ethnographic fieldwork carried out over a period of 13 years with vulnerable children in Haiti. Diane M. Hoffman raises important questions about how interventions by wellmeaning foreigners misrepresent Haitian culture as deficient, often in ways that reinforce their own power to control, define and narrate Haitian lives. She argues for a new approach to Haitian childhood that centers childhood learning and self-education alongside the ethics of personhood and indigenous spirituality that can resist the hegemony of neo-colonial and neo-liberal forces.

The Asian Gang Revisited Changing Muslim Masculinities

Claire E. Alexander, University of Manchester, Manchester

The Asian Gang Revisited picks up the story of ‘the Asian gang’ over the subsequent two decades, examining the changing identities of the original participants as they transition into adulthood in the context of increased public and political concerns over Muslim masculinities, spanning the War on Terror, ‘grooming gangs’ and knife crime. A unique longitudinal study of this small, diverse but still close cohort of men, the book offers an intimate, rich and textured account of what it means to be a Muslim man in contemporary Britain.

Radical Politics and Education

Fascism on Trial

The Crisis of Politics, Education, and Agency

Henry A. Giroux, McMaster University, Canada & Anthony R. DiMaggio

This book interrogates rising fascism in America. It spotlights the major facets of fascism that increasingly characterize contemporary U.S. politics, in relation to political authoritarianism, the rise of anti-intellectualism, the mainstreaming of conspiracy theories, the glorification of political street violence and state violence, rising white supremacy, and the militarization of U.S. political discourse. Alongside this, Giroux and DiMaggio show how the assault on critical education and pedagogy is central to the fascist program.

New Materialisms and Embodied Encounters in Education

Curiosity’s Vital Potential

Cala Coats, Arizona State University, USA

With this open access book, Cala Coats develops a theory of “vital curiosity” as a transdisciplinary educational force that activates ecological flows of connection. In the book, curiosity becomes a critical learning disposition and creative process, tracing embodied encounters through aesthetic disruptions and attractions, activating questions and durational commitments toward affirmative complexity. Drawing on new materialist and posthuman theories, the book puts forward an image of educational life, as it extends from curiosity, as a radical pedagogical practice.

The Necessity of Aesthetic Education

The Place of the Arts on the Curriculum

Laura D’Olimpio

Laura D’Olimpio argues that aesthetic education ought to be a compulsory part of education for all students, from pre-primary through to high school, as it is essential that young people have the opportunity to make art, experience and understand art and be informed as to the artistic history and aesthetic theories that have shaped their own culture and others. The book defends arts education on the basis of art’s distinctive value and centrality to human experience. It also engages with topics such as the art teacher’s role in the classroom, curricula concerns and gleaning moral meanings from artworks.

David I. Backer, West Chester University, USA

In this open access book, David I. Backer reexamines Althusser’s philosophy of education, presents its flawed reception in critical educational research, and draws out what the philosophy has to offer us today. Correcting the record about Althusser’s thinking in the traditional narrative of critical educational research becomes an opportunity to revisit fundamental questions for thinking about school in its social context. For students and researchers of education, critical theory, sociology of education, and critical pedagogy, this book will be a resource for rethinking the social foundations of education, both as a field and as a set of theoretical frameworks for educational research.

Pedagogies of Taking Care

Art, Pedagogy and the Gift of Otherness

Dennis Atkinson, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK

This book traces the notion of care and civic values in education that are largely devalued today by neoliberal economic concerns. Through a discussion of educators and philosophers including Arendt, Foucault, Guattari, Patocka, Simondon, Stengers and Whitehead Atkinson explores the ‘gift of otherness’ in relation to an ethico-politics of pedagogic practice and learning, including art education. He argues for pedagogical practices that facilitate and support each learner's pathways through what is called a pedagogy of taking care. This involves paying due attention, with empathy, to each learner’s pathway of learning and to the difference and divergence of such pathways.

Jana L. Carlisle, Educational Support Consulting, USA

This book draws on insights from 37 women leaders, collected from 2020 to 2022, around women’s experiences with gender and racial bias, resilience, social justice, and leadership strategies and challenges. The 37 women respondents possess different educational backgrounds, reflect different ethnic, racial and age groups, and inhabit varied roles and organizations—from public school districts, charter school networks, graduate schools of education, and partner/support organizations. Jana L. Carlisle responds to the underrepresentation of women in education leadership positions and the complicated and veiled routes women must take to ascend to leadership, and proposes the most applicable models, standards, strategies, and supports vital to women educational leaders.

Conflict, Education and Peace in Nepal

Rebuilding Education for Peace and Development

Tejendra Pherali, IOE, UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society, University College London, UK

This book provides a critical analysis of the contentious role of education in the emergence of conflict, as well as the effects of violence on education. The author engages with sociological and political theories to analyse the emergence and expansion of armed rebellion and discuss implications for peacebuilding and social transformation. He argues that education in Nepal played a complicit role in the conflict, primarily benefitting the traditionally privileged social groups in the society and hence, perpetuating the existing structural inequalities, which were the major causes of the rebellion.

Educational Leadership and Critical Theory

What Can School Leaders Learn from the Critical Theorists

Edited by Charles L. Lowery, Chetanath Gautam, Robert White & Michael E. Hess

This book shows how critical theory can help school leaders and administrators to prepare students for the ever-changing political, cultural, economic, and societal conditions of the world. The contributors use ideas from critical theorists including Adorno, Fromm, Marcuse and Habermas and connect them with contemporary theories and debates in educational leadership from moral education to critical theories on race, to culturally relevant practice. The book challenges the misconceptions of many present-day educators about the analytical lens offered by the Frankfurt School theorists which is often dismissed by policymakers and practitioners.

Communities

Keywords in Teacher Education

Ken Zeichner, University of Washington, USA

As well as clarifying the landscape on including communities in teacher education, Ken Zeichner argues for a view of teacher education in which existing power hierarchies are disrupted and in which parents/carers, families and local communities play central roles in the preparation of teachers and teacher educators. He also argues for a vision of teaching that includes instruction, curriculum development, and community participation. He explores the links between equity and justice in education in schools in marginalized communities and shows how decolonial approaches to teacher education that access community expertise can help shift power relations resulting in culturally sustaining and revitalizing forms of education.

Teacher Education in Crisis

The State, The Market and the Universities in England

Edited by Viv Ellis, Monash University, Australia

In this open access book, leading teacher educators and researchers provide unique insights into a ‘great experiment’ in teacher education in England, sometimes insights from people who were in the room at critical junctures in the process. International researchers also contribute brief response chapters that highlight the distinctive approach England has taken is and why it is now an outlier in terms of education policy. It the relationship between ‘the state’ and ‘the market’ – where the state rejects the market if it doesn’t deliver the required ideological solution – that makes ITE reform in England so interesting and important for national and international readers. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Monash University.

Knowledge

Keywords in Teacher Education

Steven Puttick, University of Oxford, UK, Victoria Elliott, University of Oxford, UK & Jenni Ingram

Key to teacher education is the knowledge base of the teacher educator, and the ways in which knowledge is conceptualised. This book explores how ideas about knowledge are used in teacher education to critically examine what knowledges are valued across research, policy and practice. The authors explore international and interdisciplinary perspectives on the nature of knowledge (and what counts as knowledge) and how these perspectives on knowledge translate into teacher education, with a final chapter dedicated to exploring consequences for practice.

London, UK & David Pepper, King’s College

London, UK

This book explores the influence that Black has had across assessment and pedagogy across the curriculum, including STEM, humanities and social science subjects.

Rurality, Diversity and Schooling Multiculturalism in Regional Australia

Neroli Colvin, late of University of Technology

Sydney, Australia

Using interview, observational and documentary data, the book examines how multiculturalism is understood, valued and lived in two public high schools in a town which has become home to several hundred refugees from Africa, South-East Asia and the Middle East. Drawing on critical theories of discourse, space and race, the book examines a host of anxieties in the town and its schools about recent demographic changes revealing how notions of rurality, steeped in colonial narratives about European settlement, productivity and racial superiority, continue to shape how “difference” is perceived and experienced in regional communities.

The Art, Literature and Music of Solitude

Julian Stern, Bishop Grosseteste University, UK The book presents a thematic analysis of various aspects of solitude, silence and loneliness, from the ancient world to the present day, explored thematically with consideration to the links between aloneness to other social and political issues. The themes include exile (expulsion from a community), ecstasy (getting ‘out of oneself’) and enstasy (being comfortable within oneself), to the Romantic idea of the artist as solitary. A variety of types and experiences of aloneness are seen through the lenses of artistic, literary and musical forms of expression, as aloneness is not only explored and articulated through these art forms, but is created through these art forms.

Understanding Multimodal Discourses in English Language Teaching Textbooks Implications for Students and Practitioners

Christopher A. Smith, Carleton University, Canada

This book offers a useful framework for evaluating ELT textbooks from a critical discourse perspective: one that is based on sound current research but also offers practical guidance to teachers. Building from a foundational understanding of ELT textbooks, the author presents a systematic procedure to critically analyze their multimodal discourse, examine how those discourses are negotiated between teachers and students in class, and measure how those consumers privately value the lessons. The book provides teachers with the tools they need to select and adapt materials based on critical multimodal discourse analysis.

Social Justice in EAP and ELT Contexts Global Higher Education Perspectives

This book articulates an understanding of what is meant by the term social justice from a global perspective, drawing upon examples of practice from across a range of EAP and ELT higher education contexts. It presents a series of vignettes into a diverse set of classrooms, contexts and countries, offering examples of how and where an epistemology of social justice has been put into practice in teaching and learning situations. Through looking at these examples, the authors produce a set of codes and themes that are common to practice across contexts and discuss how these can inform practice in other areas of language education, higher education and educational development work in general.

Decolonial Underground Pedagogy

Unschooling and Subcultural Learning for Peace and Human Rights

Noah Romero, University of Nevada Las Vegas, USA

This book explores how minority-led skateboarding, punk rock, and unschooling communities engage in collective efforts to humanize education and construct kinder social frameworks. Noah Romero examines the roles of informal and community-embedded learning in actualizing transformative education and shows how decolonizing education can take place outside of school settings. Grounded in the author’s own experience in minority-led Filipino subcultures, the book introduces a conceptual framework of subcultural learning and decolonizing education centred on the Philippines and its diaspora in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

Online Learning Futures

An Evidence Based Vision for Global Professional Collaboration on Sustainability

Eileen Kennedy, University College London, UK & Diana Laurillard, University College London, UK

To fully realise its transformative potential, this book argues the need for an evidence-based design approach. Drawing on the experiences of online learners who are professionals: educators, engineers and researchers., it demonstrates that open, online, collaborative learning experiences are not only feasible but effective for building professional community knowledge. The evidence shows how co-designed, transformative digital education can be mobilised to support professionals investigating renewable energy solutions, or medics adapting treatments to local conditions, and also scale up professional development in areas where expertise is urgently required.

Higher Education, State and Society

Comparing the Chinese and AngloAmerican Approaches

Lili Yang, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong

The book explores the broad cultural and philosophical ideas underlying the public good of higher education in two traditions, reveals their different social imaginaries, and works through five areas where higher education intersects with the individual, society, the state, and the world, intersections understood in contrasting ways in each tradition. In exploring the similarities, Yang highlights important meeting points between the two world views, with the potential to contribute to the mutual understanding and cooperation across cultures.

Ryan Gosling,

Expressionism and the Silent Hero in 21st-Century Film

Nancy Epton, Independent Scholar, UK

This book analyses the enduring popularity of the silent figure and ask why we are drawn to characters who are motivated by action rather than speech.

To consider this question in more depth, the recent career of Ryan Gosling is analysed in detail, arguing that it is Gosling’s expressive capabilities that keep audiences compelled. With the use of non-verbal silence – combined with its counterbalance, sound – a more active, emotive audience response can be achieved. The book demonstrates that the sound of silence is one of the most meaningful cinematic sounds of all.

The Adaptation of Children’s Novels into the World Masterpiece Theater Series

Maria Chiara Oltolini, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Italy

Rediscovered Classics of Japanese Animation is the first academic work to examine World Masterpiece Theater (Sekai Meisaku Gekijô, 1969-2009), which popularized the practice of adapting foreign children's books into long-running animated series and laid the groundwork for powerhouses like Studio Ghibli. In particular, the series played a role in shaping the pop culture image of a young girl (shôjo). Examining the series through the lens of animation studies as well as adaptation studies, Olitini sheds new light on this long-neglected staple of Japanese animation history.

What Animation and Games Tell Us about Software and Digital Culture

Aylish Wood, University of Kent, UK

Invisible Digital helps us makes sense of something we cannot see by presenting an innovative approach to digital images and culture. At its heart is a novel method for exploring software used in the creation of moving images as markers of converging cultural, organizational and technological influences. The 3 main case studies are the animated feature Moana (2016) and the computer games No Man’s Sky (2016) and Everything (2017). These analyses of software provide a widely applicable method where moving image studies can contribute more fully to the wider and growing debates about algorithmic culture.

On the Act of Looking

Reading Joshua Oppenheimer’s Diptych: The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence

This collection of essays by film scholars, art historians, historians, political scientists, philosophers, Indonesian human rights activists and creative writers looks at Joshua Oppenheimer’s diptych The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence as a cinematic event that opens up a host of interrelated questions on historical memory, truth and reconciliation, and the limits of documentary filmmaking. On the Act of Looking affirms Oppenheimer’s use of fiction and manipulation as a technique to expose not so much a reality behind the appearance of things, but how appearance as such can become a site of intervention, or truth-telling.

John J. Michalczyk, Boston College, USA & Susan A. Michalczyk, Boston College, USA

Costa-Gavras: Encounters with History explores the life and work of the director intertwined with historical and socio-political events, from the early stages of his career: emigrating to France from Greece in 1955 and first studying at the Sorbonne, then focusing on filmmaking at IDHEC, now La Fémis. In this overview of the director’s films, the authors shed light on his encounters with history from his youth in war-torn Greece to his later films on immigration, unemployment, global capitalistic greed, and the abuse of political and economic power in Europe.

Opera Cinema A New Cultural Experience

Joseph Attard, Kings College London, UK

Since 2006, leading opera companies have beamed shows to cinema screens all over the world – live. ‘Opera cinema’ is the most successful marriage of this elaborate, esoteric artform and the silver screen. But what is different about watching Massenet at the multiplex, compared to a traditional stage performance? Is opera cinema a new, hybrid artform in its own right? Is it bringing new fans into the fold? Is there a danger it could one day eclipse the stage? This book discusses these questions by charting the history of opera transmissions, exploring how digital media changes our relationship with culture.

Yorgos Lanthimos is one of the more interesting filmmakers to have emerged out of the new century. This edited collection covers everything from an early career marked by experimentation with a range of different media to international festival hits including Dogtooth, The Lobster, The Killing of a Sacred Deer, and the Academy Award-winning 'historical' epic The Favourite. His work demonstrates a fascinating contravention of aesthetic, thematic, and generic boundaries that forms the basis of some of the analyses in the volume. This is a timely compendium of critical approaches to one of the most distinct voices in contemporary film.

The Vigilante Thriller Violence, Spectatorship and Identification in American Cinema, 1970-76

Cary Edwards, Boston College, USA

Cary Edwards offers a detailed examination of the rise of the vigilante thriller film in American cinema of the 1970s. Against the back-drop of New Hollywood experimentation, the box-office success of Vigilante films suggests a hunger for films that directly addressed problems of Law and Order. This book explores the contextual factors that led to the cycle of films (Joe [1970], The French Connection [1971], Dirty Harry [1971] and Taxi Driver [1976]) emerging and engages with the contemporaneous critical arguments that these were fascist texts likely to inspire copycat violence.

Indigeneity in Latin American Cinema

Milton Fernando Gonzalez Rodriguez, KU Leuven, Belgium; University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands

This book explores how contemporary films participate in the evolution and circulation of images and sounds that in many ways define how indigenous communities are imagined, at a local, regional and global scale. The volume reviews the diversity of portrayals from a chronological, geopolitical, linguistic, epistemic-ontological, transnational and intersectional, paradigm-changing and selfrepresentational perspective, allocating one chapter to each theme. The author looks at the contexts in which Latin American films circulate and provides the foundations of histrionic indigeneity, a theory that explains how overtly dramatic proclivities play a significant role in depictions of an imagined indigenous Other in recent films.

Crisis Cinema in the Middle East

Creativity and Constraint in Iran and the Arab World

Shohini Chaudhuri, University of Essex, UK

Shohini Chaudhuri examines a broad scope of international films, ranging from award-winning, festival favourites such as Five Broken Cameras (2011), Persepolis (2007) and Farhadi’s About Elly (2009) to lesser-known films originating from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq. Using various regional film archives and interviews with filmmakers such as Yasmin Fedda, Ossama Mohammed, Leila Sansour and Sam Kadi, Chaudhuri identifies how witnessing, humour, animation and adaptation have become prevalent creative strategies for producing work under the sociopolitical and material limitations of crisis.

The Drive-In

Neon Knight Forever

The Legacy of Joel Schumacher’s Batman Duology

Tomasz Zaglewski, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poland

This book accounts for the initial rejection of Joel Schumacher's version of Batman and explores modern attempts to rehabilitate the 'Neon Knight' as yet another acceptable idea for Batman. By uncovering the formal foundations underlying both Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, the criticism it received and a kind of renaissance of Schumacher's vision in recent DC Films projects, Neon Knight Forever is a detailed study of one of the most misunderstood superhero series and dares to ask the most heretical question for Bat-fans: what if Batman & Robin is actually an impressive artistic achievement in big-budget superhero cinema?

The Non-Professional Actor

Outdoor

Cinema in 1950s America and the Popular Imagination

Guy Barefoot, University of Leicester, UK

This book contrasts the drive-in’s reputation as a space for dating or delinquent teenagers and for screening subsequent run or exploitation films with how it was promoted as entertainment for audiences who felt excluded from indoor cinemas. Through a study of the drive-ins’ roadside locations, what facilities they provided, who attended and what they saw, it provides a detailed picture of a particular form of post-war American cinema-going and an analysis of the complexities that underlie images of the American 1950s.

Italian Neorealist Cinema and Beyond

Catherine O'Rawe, Bristol University, UK

Italian post-war cinema has been widely celebrated by critics and scholars: films such as Bicycle Thieves (De Sica, 1948) and Paisan (Rossellini, 1946) remain globally influential, particularly for their use of non-professional actors. This book provides the first critical overview of acting, stardom, and performance in postwar Italian film (1945-54), with special attention to the figure of the non-professional actor, who looms large in neorealist filmmaking. This period of regeneration of Italian cinema initiated the boom in cinemagoing that made cinema an important vector of national and gender identity for audiences.

The History of Russian Literature on Film

Marina Korneeva, Moscow City Pedagogical University, Russia & David Gillespie, University of Bath, UK

Unlike most previous studies of literature and film, which tend to privilege particular authors, texts, or literary periods, David Gillespie considers the multiple functions of filmed Russian literature as a cinematic subject in its own right—one reflecting the specific political and aesthetic priorities of different national and historical cinemas. In this first and only comprehensive study of cinema’s various engagements of Russian literature focusing on the large period 1895-2015, The History of Russian Literature on Film highlights the ways these adaptations emerged from and continue to shape the social, artistic, and commercial aspects of film history.

I’m Not a Film Star

David Bowie as Actor

Edited by Ian Dixon, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore & Brendan Black, Independent scholar, Australia

For the first time, Bowie’s considerable filmography is systematically examined. Classic films such as The Prestige and Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, cult hits Labyrinth and The Man Who Fell To Earth, as well as lesser-known roles in The Image, Christiane F. and Broadway hit The Elephant Man are viewed, not simply through the lens of Bowie’s mega-stardom, but as the work of a serious actor with inimitable talent. Including tributes to Bowie’s performance craft in other media forms this compelling analysis celebrates the risk-taking intelligence and bravura of David Bowie: actor, mime, mimic and icon.

The Biopic and Beyond

Celebrities as Characters in Screen Media

Melanie Piper, University of Queensland, Australia

Using case studies such as Mark Zuckerberg and The Social Network, Sarah Palin and Saturday Night Live, The Biopic and Beyond uncovers the process that turns the distant public figures that populate news and entertainment into screen characters that we can engage with and try to understand a little better. Biopics and docudramas are not the only places on screen that give us access to the fake person behind the real person, with media as varied as sketch comedy, fan fiction, and the celebrity cameo contributing to the ways we understand media figures.

Cinema and Secularism is the first collection to make the relationship between cinema and secularism thematic, utilizing myriad methodological approaches. Prompted by the recent emergence of critical secular studies, this book sets out to rectify the assumption within film studies that cinema is secular and to invite critical reflection upon its titular terms. The collection poses for the first time in the study of film the questions: Is cinema secular? And what would that mean?

Chapters in this book engage with film thinkers and traditions of thought, the relationship between cinema and enchantment, and distinct manifestations of secularism.

Considering that origin, mechanism, affect and symptomatology are part of an interconnected group, it purports that psychological disorder is part of the human condition that contributes to and informs personal identity.

A Guide to Post-classical Narration

The Future of Film Storytelling

Eleftheria Thanouli, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece

Building on the author's previous book, A Guide to Post-classical Narration argues that the classical Hollywood mode of storytelling and narrative construction has been superseded by innovations in film form and narrative conventions. Thanouli argues that these innovations demonstrate that previously held assumptions about the persistence of Hollywood’s classical narrative forms require updating to accommodate both changes in the blockbuster, as well as the emergence of new narrative types better suited to a post-cinematic environment.

This book explores cinema in relation to the critical tradition in modern philosophy and its heritage in Romantic aesthetics. Using a variety of discursive fields and traditions, this book outlines a radical new interpretation of Romanticism in reference to the films of Arthur Penn and Lindsay Anderson – cultural texts previously underexplored by academic studies, such as Mickey One, O Lucky Man! and The Missouri Breaks. This book offers an enriched and revitalised understanding of Romanticism’s relevance to both the filmic texts of the 20th century, and also the aesthetic, philosophical and political conditions of modern subjectivity and spectatorship

Stanley Kubrick, Adrian Lyne, Michael Bay and Quentin Tarantino

Elisa Pezzotta, University of Bergamo, Italy

Through the close analysis of Stanley Kubrick, Adrian Lyne, Michael Bay, and Quentin Tarantino’s oeuvre, Elisa Pezzotta discusses time in the cinematic medium. Pezzotta deploys and unpacks an impressive array of scholarly methods to interrogate film time, many of which are emerging areas of analysis with the humanities, and especially screen studies. Offering an innovative synthesis of these several areas conventionally regarded as outliers to film and media, such as philosophy, cognitivism, and quantum mechanics, Pezzotta skillfully draws from extant scholarly literature to make evident the narratology of cinematic ellipses, lacunae and analepses across a range of films and genres.

Identities and Commodities in Queer Popular Culture

In Globalized Queerness, Helton Levy revisits popular media characters such as Calamity Jane (1953), the Daffyd Thomas character from the BBC comedy Little Britain (2003-2007), Brazilian drag queen Pabblo Vittar, French singer Christine and the Queens, and the Italian-Egyptian rapper Mahmood. He argues that such characters have gradually blended in the public's perception and the assumption that queer publics live and consume only through a global set of references, including gay parades and rainbow flags, for example, erases the personal complexities of immigration, homophobia, poverty and societal exclusion.

It examines women’s involvement with the film and television industry as actors, directors, critics and spectators. The chapters analyze independent, art-house, Hollywood and TV productions often in transnational contexts, shedding light on how definitions of femininity are culturally specific yet cross national, class and racial lines. The contributors include renowned scholars such as Yvonne Tasker, Celestino Deleyto, David Roche and Nicole Cloarec, as well as emerging film scholars.

Podcasting in a Platform Age

From an Amateur to a Professional Medium

John L. Sullivan, Muhlenberg College, USA

This book explores the transition underway in podcasting by considering how the influx of legacy and new media interest in the medium is injecting professional and corporate logics into what had been largely an amateur media form. It focuses on three major aspects of this transformation: formalization, professionalization, and monetization. Through a close read of online and press discourse, analysis of podcasts, participant observations at podcast trade shows and conventions, and interviews with podcasters, Sullivan outlines how the efforts to transform podcasting into a profitable medium are challenging the definition of podcasting itself.

Trumping the Media Politics and Democracy in the Post-Truth Era

Michael Mario Albrecht, University of WisconsinLa Crosse, USA

This book explores the shifts in the media environment that made the political career of Donald Trump possible. The author shows the ways that Trump was able to inhabit the new media and political landscape and take advantage of journalistic norms and practices that were susceptible to exploitation by a demagogue with no allegiance to the truth and no reverence towards the foundations of liberal democracy. Understanding the ways in which Trump was able to emerge as a powerful political force is essential to those invested in challenging the momentum of the alt-right and forwarding the project of democracy.

Invocational Media Reconceptualising the Computer

Chris Chesher, University of Sydney, Australia

This book challenges the foundations of computer science by offering invocation as a powerful new way of conceptualising digital technologies. Drawing on media philosophy, Deleuze, Guattari, Heidegger, Latour, Austin, Innis and McLuhan, it critiques the representationalism of data processing, artificial intelligence and virtual reality. Invocational media seem to empower individuals, but necessarily subject users to corporate and government monopolies of invocation. They complicate agency in their indifference as to whether invokers are human or non-human. This ground-breaking book will change how you think about digital media by showing they are, in fact, invocational media.

The dishes in this text are those that have come to be known within a part of the world and culture, but also have moved beyond those borders and are accessible and enjoyed by many in our ever-smaller and more-interconnected world. Featuring more than 100 recipes and detailed discussions of dishes from across the globe, Global Dishes explores the history and cultural context surrounding some of the best-known and favorite foods.

American Slavery on Film

Caron Knauer, LaGuardia Community College, USA

In this study of ten films that depict slavery in America, Caron Knauer analyzes how African American slavery has been and continues to be portrayed in major studio blockbusters and independent films alike. In her analysis of such films as the early silent film Uncle Tom's Cabin (1914), the groundbreaking television miniseries Roots (1977); and the Harriet Tubman biopic Harriet (2019), Knauer separates the romanticized and unrealistic depictions of slavery from the more accurate but often unflinching portrayals of its horrors, delivering a comprehensive, readable, and timely examination of enslaved African Americans and slavery in America's film history.

The History of Ukraine

Paul Kubicek, Oakland University, USA

The Russia-Ukraine war that began in 2022 turned the world's attention on Ukraine, the secondlargest country in Europe and one of the leading global exporters of wheat and other valuable commodities. Though some Russian leaders have long denied and continue to reject Ukrainian sovereignty, this book presents a comprehensive picture of Ukraine that is both intertwined with and distinct from Russian history. From its days as Kyivan Rus and its inclusion in the Russian Empire, to the Euromaidan demonstrations and the outbreak of war with Russia, Ukraine, as this book demonstrates, has developed its own identity, territory, and culture.

A Revolution in Colour Natural Dyes and Dress in Europe, c. 1400-1800

Edited by Giorgio Riello, University of Warwick, UK, Maria Hayward, University of Southampton, UK & Ulinka Rublack, Cambridge University, UK

Bringing together an international cast of scholars from a range of disciplines, this highly illustrated book traces the history of colour through its relationship with clothing in Europe over four centuries in the pre-modern period. It reveals how, during this era, dyes spurred on aesthetic experiment, new modes of empirical observation and an intensification of globally interconnected trade. The book demonstrates that merchants and craftspeople generated much of the social value for new aesthetic possibilities through dye tones, successfully arguing that this set off a ‘revolution in colour’ that intertwined with the first age of globalization and consumerism.

A Short History of the Weimar Republic

Revised Edition

Colin Storer, University of Warwick, UK

It is impossible to understand the history of modern Europe without some knowledge of the Weimar Republic. The brief fourteen-year period of democracy between the Treaty of Versailles and the advent of the Third Reich was marked by unstable government, economic crisis and hyperinflation and the rise of extremist political movements. At the same time, however, a vibrant cultural scene flourished. Incorporating original research and a synthesis of the existing historiography, this revised edition will provide students and a general readership with a clear and concise introduction to the history of the first German Republic.

Italian Fascism’s Forgotten LGBT Victims

Asylums

and Internment, 1922 – 1943

Gabriella Romano, Independent Scholar, UK

This book examines the question of the repression of LGBT people through psychiatry during the fascist regime in Italy, a subject that has not been investigated until now. It draws together the substantial archival record of patients, doctors and fascist authorities to reconstruct intricate behind-the-scenes dialogue, and to document one of the ways in which the regime repressed LGBT lives in this period. The book focusses on three different institutions in three parts of the country - Rome, Florence and Girifalco, helping to highlight the variety of attitudes and therapeutic approaches that existed across the country in the process.

This book investigates the autobiographical traditions of Iceland and what this reveals to us about egodocuments. Using the Icelandic context, Sigurður Gylfi Magnússon examines egodocuments as distinct and fascinating manifestations of microhistory, reflecting on their nature, the circumstances in which they originated, and their strengths and weaknesses for scholarly research. Magnússon also provides an insightful historiographical account of how the egodocument has been used in historical works both in Iceland and elsewhere in the world since the 19th century.

Traces of Aerial Bombing in Berlin

Entangled Remembering

Eloise Florence, Western Sydney University, Australia

Drawing on extensive empirical and autoethnographic data, this interdisciplinary study considers Berlin and the deeply entrenched narratives of World War II in order to explore the complicated relationship between violence, place and memory in the German and Anglo-American consciousness. In doing so, Eloise Florence shines an important light on both the dark legacy of the aerial bombing of Berlin and the ways in which we record and read violent histories more generally.

Perspectives on the Holocaust

Israel and the Holocaust

Avinoam J. Patt, University of Connecticut, USA Avinoam J. Patt examines the relationship between the two most significant events in modern Jewish history. Is there a causal relationship between these two events, separated by only three years? Put another way, was the creation of the state of Israel made more or less likely by the Holocaust? Patt carefully considers this question, not just from the perspective of historical causality, but also with regard to its major political implications. The book then goes on to document and analyse the changing nature of Israel’s relationship to the Shoah in the sixty years since the Eichmann trial.

The Roma and the Holocaust

The Romani Genocide under Nazism

María Sierra, University of Seville, Spain

Half a million European Roma were exterminated by the Nazi regime; many more were subjected to a policy of racial discrimination similar to that suffered by the Jewish people. However, the persecution and torment of Roma in Hitler's Europe has little presence in the history books. This book places the Roma genocide in the context of the widespread violence of the Second World War, while offering an explanation that places it within a broader trajectory of anti-Roma persecution in modern societies. It brings together original analysis of the memories of Roma survivors and a critical synthesis of scholarship in the field.

Jews under Tsars and Communists

The Four Questions

Robert Weinberg, Swarthmore College, USA Jews under Tsars and Communists explores how perceptions of Jews in late Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union shaped the regimes’ policies toward them. It traces the evolving and changing nature of popular and official beliefs about the purported nature of Jews from the late 18th century to the end of the 20th century. Robert Weinberg’s examination of the ‘Jewish Question’ (and by extension antiSemitism) provides a fruitful way to investigate why and how social, economic, political, and cultural developments in Russia from the time of Catherine the Great led to prejudices and the discriminatory treatment of Russian and Soviet Jews.

More broadly, Power and the Politics of Oil in the Soviet South Caucasus demonstrates not only how the Bolsheviks understood and exploited oil, but how the needs of the industry shaped Bolshevik policy.

The Case of Konstantin Azadovsky

Petr A. Druzhinin, Russian Academic of Sciences, Russia

Translated by Sarah Vitali, University of Cambridge, UK

This book tells of an individual’s struggle with a highly repressive state machine. Based on the hitherto inaccessible Soviet Secret Police (KBG) archives and on personal recordings, the book traces Azadovsky’s persecution from the 1970s to his arrest and imprisonment in a labour camp in the 1980s to his struggle for rehabilitation in the 1990s. Here, for the first time in English, the KBG’s secret operations against prominent intellectuals is revealed in full, horrific detail, providing new insight into the lived experience of KBG control and into the relationship between intellectual and state power in Soviet Russia.

The Russian Military and the Creation of Empire

From Peter the Great to Vladimir Putin

John W. Steinberg, Austin Peay State University, USA

This book examines the rise and the fall of the Russian Empire through the lens of its military history. While much of the literature on this history tends to focus on epochs, John W. Steinberg uses a variety of archival sources to capture this aspect of modern Russia from Peter the Great right up to the present day. Steinberg analyzes the social dynamic between Russian society and its military over time. Through a focus on civilmilitary relations, he demonstrates that both the Tsarist and Soviet regimes were built on, and ultimately dependent upon, the support of the military.

Negotiating Science, Global Change, and Environmental Justice

The Fear of Chinese Power An International History

Jeffrey Crean, Tyler Junior College, USA

The real and potential power of China, the world’s most populous nation, has long been seen as a threat by its smaller neighbors and global powers alike. The Fear of Chinese Power provides a history of this perceived threat from the 1880s to the present day, and offers rich historical context to an enduring and current concern. Focusing on the United States, but also exploring perceptions from Britain, Germany, the Soviet Union and Japan, this book asks why these fears exist and shows how they have played out on both a strategic, diplomatic level, and in the public sphere.

Dismantling the League of Nations

The Quiet Death of an International Organization, 1945-8

Jane Mumby, Birkbeck, University of London, UK

The League of Nations, one of the world’s first multi-function intergovernmental organisations, was also one of the first to undergo liquidation. This book unveils the last chapter in its story, showing how complex and time-consuming the end of this ‘great experiment’ truly was. Starting with the signing of the Charter of the United Nations in 1945 - the death knell of the League - Mumby traces the closure process that followed and highlights the lingering impact of the League on international organisations today.

Locating the Transatlantic in Twentieth-century Politics, Diplomacy and Culture

Edited by Gaynor Johnson, University of Kent, UK

Written in tribute to the work of Professor

Alan Dobson, this collection of essays brings diplomacy and the Anglo-American relationship together, considering political interactions in tandem with cultural interactions. Uniquely placed to define exactly what transatlanticism is, and to explore the ways in which this idea has evolved in the last 150 years, this book asks to what extent can it be argued that there was a transatlantic world; how can it be defined and what was unique about it?

Oil, Nationalism and British Policy in Iran

The End of Informal Empire, 1941-1953

Jack Taylor, Independent Researcher, UK

This book explores British policy in Iran against a backdrop of decolonisation, to demonstrate the central place this nation had in Britain’s postwar imperial reorientation. Focusing on the period leading up to Operation Ajax, it shows that although Iran was not part of Britain’s ‘rose coloured map’, it was a key part of the informal empire. Using a wealth of primary sources, this book shows how the US government intervened to restore Iranian autocracy, and therefore supplanted Britain as the foremost power in the Persian Gulf, bringing half a century of informal empire to a close.

Arctic Circles and Imperial Knowledge

The Franklin Family, Indigenous Intermediaries, and the Politics of Truth

Annaliese Jacobs Claydon, Archivist at the State Library and Archives of Tasmania, Australia.

In 1845 an expedition led by Sir John Franklin vanished in the Canadian Arctic. The enduring obsession with the Franklin mystery, and in particular Inuit information about its fate, is partly due to the ways in which information was circulated in these imperial spaces. This book examines how the Franklins and other explorer families engaged in science, exploration and the exchange of information in the early to mid-19th century. It follows the Franklins' journey, charting how they worked with intermediaries, imperial humanitarians and scientists, and shows how they used these experiences to claim a moral right to information.

Uprisings in Eighteenth-Century Britain

Mediation and the Transformation of Political Culture

Monika Barget, Maastricht University, The Netherlands

This study examines how the British Empire of the 18th century avoided revolution by integrating opposition agents as new spaces of power opened up. Monika Barget convincingly argues that this process of constitutionalisation meant that groups from the aristocracy to the church, from the army to the people at large, were brought into the system in a way that negated the obvious, serious challenges that were posed to the Empire by the Glorious Revolution, the Jacobite Rebellion, the American Revolution, and Jacobin threats of the late-18th century. Barget goes on to highlight the lasting political and legal repercussions of this process.

Through roughly 160 alphabetically arranged reference entries, this book surveys the material culture and social institutions of Ancient Rome. While other reference works typically examine battles and politicians, this book focuses on Roman social history and daily life, painting a detailed picture of the material culture and social institutions of Ancient Rome. A timeline highlights key events, while an overview essay surveys the achievements of the Romans. Reference entries provide objective information about art, architecture, literature, commerce, transportation, government, religion, and other topics related to Roman life. Each entry provides cross-references and suggestions for further reading, and some provide sidebars of interesting facts along with excerpts from primary source documents.

Josephus and the Church Fathers in the Early Middle Ages

How Wide is the Canon?

Richard Matthew Pollard, University of Quebec, Montreal, Canada

In the history of Christianity, the so-called ‘Church Fathers’ hold an immensely important place, with the title used from the 4th century onwards to designate particularly trustworthy authorities, whose opinions became the foundation of Western religious and intellectual culture. But who exactly were these Church Fathers? This book examines this fundamental question using a variety of novel techniques and ultimately enables us to understand and appreciate the foundational authorities of European Christian culture – some of whom were not Christian at all.

A History of Bread

Consumers, Bakers and Public Authorities since the 18th Century

Peter Scholliers, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium

This book delves into the history of bread to map out its defining moments and people since the 19th century. From the price revolution of the 1890s to the taste revolution of the 1990s it studies consumers, bakers and governments to explain how and why this food that once powered an entire continent has fallen by the wayside, and what this means for the modern age. From prices and consumption to legislation and technology it shows how bread, and in turn Europe, has been shaped by changes in agriculture, transport, production and policy.

Conversations with the Animate ‘Other’

Historical representations of Human and non-Human interactions in India

Aloka Parasher-Sen, University of Hyderabad, India

Human interventions with living entities have had to be in a constant state of negotiating space necessary for co-habitation with animals, birds, trees, plants, grasslands, forests, hills, water bodies, etc. The book argues that negotiating this space meant sharing, which impacted economic strategies, religious experiences, cultural interactions and oral performances that humans have strategized and preserved. This intersectional theme, through individual case studies, provides the civilizational ethos of the Indian sub-continent on how human non-human relations informed it. Further how this relationship was represented in a variety of material and literary texts, visual representations, archival records, folklore and oral testimonies.

For almost forty years the Pet Shop Boys have shaped themselves and their work through politics, memory and history. From queer identities to the HIV/AIDs pandemic, Thatcherite neoliberalism and the Cold War, this book explores the cultural and political impact of this band, offering a fascinating window into the late 20th and early 21st centuries. An archetypal ‘gay band’ coming of age at a time when sexual politics and awareness were points of deep socio-political tension, it shows how their overt queerness has, in turn, influenced generations of LGBTQIA+ music lovers and artists alike.

Three Yiddish Plays by Women

Female Jewish Perspectives, 1880-1920

Edited by Alyssa Quint, Yeshiva University, USA

This is an unprecedented collection of three newly translated Yiddish plays written by women in the period from 1880 to 1920. Taken together, these plays provide a fascinating insight into female Jewish perspectives on a range of women’s issues prevalent at the time and, in some cases, still prevalent today. The works explore the Jewish law of the ‘chained widow’, pregnancy out of wedlock, and birth control. The volume includes an incisive contextual introduction which provides historical context for each individual work, summaries and discussion of the texts and stage histories for two of the three that have them. The introduction also engages an array of recent sources and angles on intersecting questions of theater and gender.

Bigfoot to Mothman

A Global Encyclopedia of Legendary Beasts and Monsters

Margo DeMello, Carroll College, USA

Comprehensive in its scope, this book is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to know more about creatures of myth and legend. Rather than purport to prove or deny the existence of these creatures, however, this volume classifies them within their respective cultural, historical, and social contexts, allowing readers to appreciate cryptids as cultural artifacts important to societies around the globe. Finally, this book goes beyond the study of the unknown to investigate who believes in cryptids, why they do, and why the study of cryptozoology is as much about understanding cryptids as it is about understanding ourselves.

Covering the period 800-1400, this volume considers genocidal massacres and actions within the context of the pre-modern state, a time when the term “genocide” did not yet exist. In considering rhetoric, discrimination, and political and legal marginalization that impacted the lives of particular peoples, the volume takes as its premise that genocidal practices and massacres can occur when social dynamism and political change challenges the identity of a community. Each contribution considers genocide as caused by settling national, religious, and ethnic differences; genocide as designed to enforce or fulfil an ideology; and genocide as designed to colonize.

A Cultural History of Race in Antiquity

This volume explores some of the specific ways race was defined and mobilized by different groups— including the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Persians, and Ethiopians— as they came into contact with one another during the Classical era.

Drawing on a range of ancient evidence—literature, historical writing, documentary evidence, and ancient art and archaeology—this volume highlights both the complexity of ancient racial ideas and the often violent and asymmetrical power structures embedded in ancient racial representations and practices like war and the enslavement of other persons.

A Cultural History of Race in the Renaissance and Early Modern Age

Through the lens of critical race theory, the essays collected here explore new analytical models, theoretical frameworks, and methodological approaches in attempting to reimagine the European Renaissance and early modern periods in terms of global expansion, awareness, and participation. Centering race in these periods requires that we acknowledge the people against whom social hierarchies and differential treatment were directed. This collection takes Europe as its focus, but White Europeans are not centred in it and the experiences of Black Africans, Asians, Jews and Muslims are not relegated to the margins of a shared history.

A Cultural History of Race in the Age of Empire and Nation State

Edited by Marina B. Mogilner, University of Illinois at Chicago, USA

This volume covers the cultural history of race in ‘the long 19th century’ – the age of empire and nation-state, a transformative period during which a modern world had been forged and complex and hierarchical imperial formations were challenged by the emerging national norm. The concept of race emerged as a dominant epistemology in the context of the conflicting entanglement of empire and nation as two alternative but quite compatible forms of social imaginary. It penetrated all spheres of life under the novel conditions of the emerging mass culture and mass society and with the sanction of anthropocentric and positivistic science.

A Cultural History of Race in the Reformation and Enlightenment

Edited by

The essays in this volume trace the complex pattern of intellectual and cultural change from popular bigotry in the Age of Shakespeare to the racial categories developed in the works of Buffon and Kant. These essays also link changes in racial thinking to other trends during this age. The development of modern ideas of race corresponded with emerging conceptions of the nation state; new acceptance of religious diversity became linked with speculations on racial diversity; transforming ideologies of gender and sexuality overlapped in crucial ways with developing racial attitudes.

Edited by Tanya Maria

This volume explores the cultural history of race during the period from the 1920s to the present. This era is marked by the rise of eugenics, the expansion and hardened enforcement of immigration laws, legal apartheid, the continuance of race pseudoscience, and the rise of human and civil rights discourse in response. As this volume makes clear, racism is an ideology that is adept at changing with the times, yet never dissipates.

A Cultural History of Democracy in Antiquity

This volume explores democracy in antiquity through ten chapters devoted to the notions of sovereignty; liberty and the rule of law; the “common good”; economic and social democracy; religion and the principles of political obligation; citizenship and gender; ethnicity, race, and nationalism; democratic crises, revolutions, and civil resistance; international relations; and beyond the polis.

It surveys democracy broadly as a cultural phenomenon operating in different ways across a very wide range of ancient societies, examining the experiences of those living in democratic communities and considering how ancient practices of democracy differ from our own.

A Cultural History of the Home in Antiquity

‘Home’ is a powerful idea throughout antiquity, from Odysseus’ epic journey to recover his own home, nostalgically longed-for through his long absence, to the implanting of Christianity in the domestic sphere in late antiquity. Ranging across a period of over a millennium, this collection looks at the home as a force of integration: of the worlds of family and of the outsider in hospitality; of the worlds of leisure and work; of the worlds of public and private life; of the world of practical structures and furnishings and the world of religion.

A Cultural History of the Home in the Renaissance

This volume addresses the relationship between people and their homes in Christian areas of Western Europe in the Renaissance, traced from the late fourteenth century to around 1650. The two centuries after 1450 were characterised by a cluster of interrelated forces that led to significant changes in the material, social, cultural, economic and political landscape. The essays in the volume vary in their geographical focus of study and disciplinary approach but taken together they try to uncover the impact of these changes on how people used, thought and felt about their homes in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

A Cultural History of the Home in the Medieval Age

The period covered by this volume, roughly 8001450, was one of enormous change in the way people lived in their houses. Medieval people could call a grand castle, a humble thatched hut, or anything in between home, but houses were more than physical spaces. They changed according to technological developments, climatic needs, geological limitations and economic resources. They were also moral units that were themselves symbolic, economic, gendered, and social. This volume argues that through a house and its uses, occupants created, sustained, and understood their relationship to each other and their society.

Edited

During the period of the Enlightenment, the word ‘home’ could refer to a specific and defined physical living space, the location of domestic life, and a concept related to ideas of roots, origins, and retreat. The chapters in this volume therefore discuss and reflect upon issues relating to the home through a range of approaches. Enlightenment homes are examined in terms of signification and meaning; the persons who inhabited them; the physical buildings and their furniture and furnishings; the work undertaken within them; the differing roles of men and women; the nature of hospitality, and the important role of religion in the home.

Circular Economies in an Unequal World Waste, Renewal and the Effects of Global Circularity

This landmark first anthropological volume on the circular economy brings together a range of international scholars with regional specialisms in Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America, to examine the global implications of the concept on a diverse array of international actors including waste-pickers, traders and policymakers, and the global movement of materials like gold, plastic and textiles. What are the frictions that emerge as these concepts and materials travel across different geographic contexts? And what can an anthropological analysis contribute to a concept that is increasingly reshaping economies and restructuring global flows of virgin commodities, recyclables, and waste?

Debates in Charity Law

Charitable organisations occupy a central place in society across much of the world, accounting for billions of pounds in revenue. As society changes, so does the law which regulates nonprofits.

In this book, a team of internationally recognised charity law experts offers a modern take on a fast-changing policy field and identifies the links between law, social change and regulation.

Through the concept of policy debates it moves the field forward, providing an important reference point for developing scholarship in charity law and policy. Each chapter explores a policy debate, setting out the fault-lines in play, and offering proposals for reform.

Financial Market Infrastructure and Economic Integration

A WTO, FTAs, and Competition Law Analysis

This book provides a study of the regulation of financial infrastructure and international economic integration. It discusses how the liberalisation of financial market infrastructure is achieved within the WTO, Economic Integration Agreements, and EU competition law, exploring whether a more harmonious relationship between financial regulation and economic integration is feasible. The book demonstrates the existence of both structural barriers to trade and trade-facilitating tools that can impede and foster the integration of financial market infrastructure.

(1) international investment law has a longer history than generally considered and that this history is fundamental to understanding its development; (2) international investment law is crafted today by a large number of actors; and (3) the literature and case law in languages other than English and from different legal cultures is essential to grasp the essence of the development of the topic.

Court-Supervised Restructuring of Large Distressed Companies in Asia Law and Policy

Wai Yee Wan, City University of Hong Kong

This book provides an analysis of 4 Asian jurisdictions (Mainland China, India, Hong Kong and Singapore) that have recently reformed – or are considering reforming – their corporate restructuring laws to promote regimes conducive to restructuring financially distressed, but economically viable, companies. This study explains how corporate restructuring laws in these Asian jurisdictions have evolved due to the frictions in shareholder-creditor and creditor-creditor relationships, and the role of the state in resolving non-performing loans and financial distress of state-owned enterprises which are listed, or which issue public debt.

A Guide to the Regulation of Big Tech in the EU

Edited by Konstantina Bania, Geradin Partners and University of Sheffield, UK & Damien Geradin, Geradin Partners, Belgium, and Tilburg University, the Netherlands

This book provides an in-depth exploration of the Digital Markets Act (DMA). It explains the rationale for the DMA, introduces the reader to the digital services falling within its scope, and provides insights into the interpretation issues and enforcement challenges that arise from the obligations it establishes.

Analysing the DMA in the broader legal and market context, the chapters examine tensions between the DMA and other (EU and national) rules governing the conduct of online platforms, compare the DMA to similar initiatives undertaken in other jurisdictions, and bring perspectives from other disciplines, such as data protection regulation.

Pandemocracy in Latin America Revisiting the Political and Constitutional Dimension of the Pandemic

Adopting a global-south perspective, this book explores the constitutional, political, and institutional measures that have paved the way for several aggressive state policies in various Latin American countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. The contributions provide a detailed review of the democratic decay and the ‘rule of law’ impairment in many countries of the region. The book goes beyond mere observation and explores all the main theoretical elements that can enhance a more comprehensive understanding of the political and normative impact of the pandemic.

Equality Before the Law Equal Dignity, Wrongful Discrimination, and the Rule of Law

Michael P Foran, University of Glasgow, UK

This book presents a defence of the value of equality within law which is neither purely formal nor an all-things-considered theory of justice. The book argues that equality is grounded in the principle of equal moral status of all subjects of the law and that individuals be treated in accordance with the principle of equality before the law, that they not be treated in ways that would deny their equal moral standing. It explores the argument that this principle of moral equality is the fundamental normative basis of the common law constitution and essential for the rule of law.

Referendums as Representative Democracy

Leah Trueblood, University of Oxford, UK

In referendums on fundamental constitutional issues, do the people come together to make decisions instead of representatives? This book argues no. It offers an alternative theory of referendums whereby they are one of many ordinary ways that voters give direction to their representatives. In this way, the book argues that referendums are better understood as exercises in representative democracy.

Challenging the current treatment of referendums in processes of constitutional change both in the United Kingdom and around the world, the book strengthens the case for referendums by showing how they can support, rather than undermine, institutions of representative democracy.

Regulation-Making in the United Kingdom and Australia

Democratic Legitimacy, Safeguards and Executive Aggrandisement

Andrew Edgar, University of Sydney, Australia

This book shines a spotlight on the way in which parliamentary scrutiny of regulations provides the primary support for democratic legitimacy for regulations in the UK and Australia.

This book has two aims. The first is to explain the systems of parliamentary scrutiny in the UK and Australia and their historical development. The second aim is to examine recent developments in regulation-making that avoid or minimise this safeguard.

The book contributes to public law in the UK and Australia by analysing recent developments that involve executive over-reach, by reference to the historical development of parliamentary checks on regulation-making.

Demoicratic Authority

Nature and Ground of the EU’s Right to Rule

Josef Weinzierl, the Landgericht, Germany

What is the nature of EU’s authority? This fascinating book explores this question, and is much needed given its increased scrutiny in the face of growing nationalism.

By setting out an original account of the preferred moral standard to evaluate such authority, ie Demoicratic authority, it illustrates how that standard affects the practical reasoning of those subjects to the EU’s authority. Theoretically significant, the book also has important practical value as legitimacy challenges in the EU increase. Constitutional lawyers and theorists, as well as political scientists will welcome this innovative new work.

Law and the Whirligig of Time

Stephen Sedley, retired Lord Justice of Appeal

This book contains articles by Stephen Sedley on the law, many of them from the London Review of Books, and lectures given to a variety of audiences.

The third part is a group of biographical sketches of well-known and less well-known judges and jurists. The final part of the book is more personal: it goes back to the author’s days at the Bar, then forward to some parting reflections.

Common Law Constitutional Rights

Edited by Mark Elliott, University of Cambridge & Kirsty

This book offers the first detailed and comparative analysis of the content and role of common law constitutional rights in judicial decision-making. There is a developing body of legal reasoning in the United Kingdom Supreme Court that has championed common law constitutional rights. Indeed various members of the senior judiciary have asserted the primary role of common law constitutional rights and critiqued legal arguments based first and foremost on the Human Rights Act 1998.

This collection brings together leading constitutional scholars to systematically analyse this significant shift in legal reasoning, described by Lady Hale as ‘UK Constitutionalism on the march’, for the first time.

How will the 'crisis of constitutionalism' unfold in the years to come? Nobody knows, but at the same time, nobody is too keen to make an educated guess. This volume remedies that.

The book brings together 9 eminent scholars in law and political science to predict where constitutionalism will stand in 2030. It creates a forum of deliberation that not only aims to anticipate the developments in question but also shape academic discourse on constitutionalism.

The contributors will reconvene in 2030 and 2040 to reflect and consider how the issues have evolved and whether their predictions have been realised.

The Constitutional Balance John Laws

In The Constitutional Balance Sir John Laws has left a vivid and timely commentary on one of the most pressing issues in the legal world today. Constitutional fundamental values can compete with each other, giving rise to tensions within and between key state institutions, in particular the executive and the judiciary. A 'constitutional balance' between them must be found if the constitution is to function properly. Sir John draws on his life-long experience as a barrister, judge and academic, and on case-law and learning, to explain in vibrant and engaging terms how such a 'constitutional balance' might be achieved.

The Constitutional Legitimacy of Law Officers in the United Kingdom

Conor McCormick, Queen’s University, Belfast, UK

This book provides a detailed account of each law officer’s functions and draws on that account as the basis for a broader conceptual analysis of their constitutional legitimacy.

The constitutional legitimacy of law officers has been questioned repeatedly in recent years, on account of recurring controversies surrounding the discharge of their varied functions. This book argues that the most persuasive framework for analysing the offices which make up this diverse regime involves concentrating on the constitutional values of independence, accountability and trust which underpin it.

The Rule of Law in Brazil

The Legal Construction of Inequality

Juliano Zaiden Benvindo, University of Brasília, Brazil

This book offers a broad perspective of the functioning, evolution, and dynamics of the rule of law in Brazil.

In the context of a rising crisis of liberal principles and ‘democratic decay’ in global constitutionalism, the book explores how Brazilian democracy has dealt with the authoritarian mindset which still plays a big role in the fate of the country.

It considers whether the democratic achievements and institutional framework that have strengthened over the years are capable of defending the rule of law as an imperative for Brazil’s development, especially in times when the country seems most in need of them.

Some contributors advance Ackerman’s theory, others attack it, and others refine it—but all agree that the ideas in the book reset the terms of debate on important subjects in constitutionalism: from the promise and perils of populism to the causes and consequences of democratic backsliding, from the optimal models of constitutional design to the forms and limits of constitutional amendment, and from the role of courts in politics to how we identify when the mythical “people” have spoken.

The Scope and Structure of Unjust Enrichment

Duncan Sheehan, University of Leeds, UK

This ambitious book grapples with ongoing debates on the structure of unjust enrichment. It argues that while unjust enrichment has the function of reversing defective enrichments, there is scope for normative pluralism in how the law achieves this. Drawing on comparative material from Germany, Scotland and South Africa the book argues for a legal framework which combines elements of the absence of basis and unjust factors approaches. It assesses how that structure can be mapped against the causes of action that make up unjust enrichment, and concludes with a treatment of defences.

Contract Law

An Introduction to the English Law of Contract for the Civil Lawyer

John Cartwright, University of Oxford, UK

The fourth edition of this acclaimed textbook introduces the lawyer trained in a civil law jurisdiction to the method of reasoning in the common law, and in particular to the English law of contract. It is written for the lawyer - whether student or practitioner - from another jurisdiction who already has an understanding of a (different) law of contract, but who wishes to discover the way in which an English lawyer views a contract. However, it is also useful for the English law student: setting English contract law generally in the context of other European and international approaches, the book forms an introductory text, not only demonstrating how English contract law works but also giving a glimpse of different ways of thinking about some of the fundamental rules of contract law from a civil law perspective.

Regulating Boilerplate Resolving the Issues of Imposition and Unfairness in Standard Form Contracts

Marcus Moore, University of British Columbia, Canada

This book analyses what elements of legal regulation would best resolve the longstanding issues of imposition of terms and unfair terms in boilerplate ‘contracts of adhesion’. It adopts a ‘law in context’ methodology to offer solutions.

The methodological approach is combined with insights from global regulatory theory and cutting edge solutions such as private collectivised proceedings and remedies, streamlined adjudication, and administrative enforcement systems. It looks at models in the US, Canada, the UK, and the EU. As the use of boilerplates is set only to increase as privatisation and globalisation spread, the answers provided are much needed.

Judicial Reasoning in Tort Law

English and French Traditions Compared

Dorota Leczykiewicz, University of Oxford, UK

This book examines the practice of judicial reasoning in tort law, understood as a process of justification, consisting of both deductive and non-deductive elements, and therefore involving a significant element of choice or discretion. The book divides the elements of judicial reasoning into four conceptual categories: factual assessments, application of legislative and judgemade rules, reliance on reasonableness and policy considerations. To discuss these elements in a comparative perspective the book uses the English and French judicial traditions of tort law as case studies. By closely examining selected tort judgments from both jurisdictions, the book elucidates the phenomenon of law-making through adjudication in both a non-codified and a codified system of liability It offers a reflection on different approaches that legal systems may adopt to the importance in the process of judicial justification.

Male Violence Against Women Law, Ethics, and Policy

Jonathan Herring, University of Oxford, UK

This book provides an overview of male violence against women.

Male violence against women is pervasive. From the bedroom to the boardroom; from the home to the hospital; from the court to the care home, women are subject to male violence. The legal response to this is weak. The violence is either invisible or downplayed. This book explains why and how the law can do better. It claims that the legal response to male violence against women downplays the severity of the harm or even fails to recognise it.

Sentencing Rape A Comparative Analysis

Graeme Brown, University of Aberdeen, UK

This book presents an in-depth comparative study of sentencing practice for rape in England and Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand, and South Africa.

It provides a thorough review of the literature on the physical and psychological effects of rape; the literature on the seriousness of the offence; and the victim’s role in sentencing and examines recent socio-legal research on technology-facilitated sexual violence and considers the implications for sentencing.

The book critically analyses judicial approaches to rape sentencing and suggests possible reforms to rape sentencing in ‘non-guideline’ jurisdictions, with the aim of establishing general principles for sentencing rape.

An Environmental Court in Action Function, Doctrine and Process

Edited by Elizabeth Fisher, University of Oxford, UK & Brian Preston, Land and Environmental Court of New

South Wales, Australia

Effective adjudication has become a key consideration for environmental lawyers. One of the most important questions is whether environmental law frameworks need their own courts. Here, a pioneer of such a court, the New South Wales Land and Environmental Court (NSWLEC) is forensically examined to see what it might teach other similar courts. Showing a court ‘in action’, it suggests models that practitioners and policy makers might follow. It also speaks to the environmental law scholars, setting out a conceptual framework for studying these courts as legal institutions. This multi-faceted collection is invaluable to scholars and practitioners alike.

Free Movement Rights for Atypical Workers

Alice Welsh, York Law School, UK

This book challenges the existing focus in EU citizenship scholarship which looks only at the economically active. Arguing that the deliberately vague EU concept of ‘work’ allows for its restricted application in Member States, it shows how many workers and economic contributors are left out of the free movement regime. Relying on both qualitative case studies and legal analysis of both EU and UK legislation, case law, and decision maker guidance, it argues that, if EU free movement rights are awarded on the basis of market credentials, more must be done to ensure a contemporary, accurate and inclusive market citizenship.

Migrant Rights and the European Integrated Border Management

At the Frontiers of International Responsibility

Giulia Raimondo, University of Luxembourg

European international border management (EIBM) is at the coal face of effective implementation of the Union’s refugee policy yet it is arguably under-examined. This important new work addresses that gap by examining the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex), which coordinates and supervises the action of various actors involved in the EIBM. With impressive analysis, it clearly illustrates how the development of Frontex has resulted in tensions between territory and public power. It charts cooperative challenges faced, and the human rights obligations that such cooperation gives rise to.

Parliamentarism and Encyclopaedism

Parliamentary Democracy in an Age of Fragmentation

Giovanni Rizzoni, LUISS University of Rome, Italy

This book explores a specific aspect of modern parliamentarism: its ability to produce and organise political knowledge.

The book argues that the very meaning of modern parliamentarism cannot properly be understood without considering the cognitive value which is inherent in the representative function discharged by parliaments, vis-a-vis the political community. It does so by studying the ‘encyclopaedic patterns’ underlying modern parliamentarism. Exploring the concept from ancient times to modernity, it addresses the fundamental question of the relationship between knowledge and democratic decision-making.

The Treatment of Immigrants in the European Court of Human Rights Moving Beyond Criminalisation

Amanda Spalding, University of Leeds, UK

As immigration in Europe has increased, so has its criminalisation. This is a multi-faceted phenomenon, with criminal justice and harsh use of immigration measures becoming more and more entwined. This book asks: how has the European Court of Human Rights responded? Drawing on case law from across the spectrum of rights, it explores how effective it has been in countering detention and deportation, if at all. This makes an original contribution to the growing focus on ‘crimmigration’.

Sovereignty, Technology and Governance after COVID-19 Legal Challenges in a Post-Pandemic Europe

Edited by Francisco de Abreu Duarte, European University Institute, Florence, Italy & Francesca Palmiotto Ettorre, European University Institute, Italy

This book imagines how Europe might re-organise and re-group after the COVID crisis by assessing its effectiveness when responding to it. It focuses on: i) sovereignty challenges; ii) technological challenges and iii) governance challenges. The book shows how these challenges intersect by examining the relationship between public and private power, and illustrating how the rise of technocratic authority is connected to the choice of technological solutions. It illustrates how constitutional decisions taken during states of emergency give rise to private governance challenges related to cybersecurity and data protection by experts in the fields of EU governance, data protection, and technology.

What Is a Family Justice System For?

This book explores the role of the family justice system and asks whether it has a function beyond decision-making in dispute resolution. It is divided into 4 parts:

- Part 1 asks what constitutes a family justice system in different jurisdictions, and how a welfare element is included in the legal framework.

- Part 2 looks at those engaged with a family justice system as professionals and users.

- Part 3 evaluates new ways of working within a family justice system.

- Part 4 explores recent major changes of direction for the family justice systems of Australia, Argentina, and Germany.

Citizenship and Human Rights

From Exclusive and Universal to Global Rights: A New Framework

Christian Kälin, Henley & Partners, UK

Can universal human rights and different national citizenship regimes be compatible? This book argues that they can’t. It explores whether the emergence of postnational models of citizenship that aim at decoupling human rights and citizenship succeed in overcoming tensions between the universal (multiculturalism; universal human rights; postnational values) and the particular (citizenship; borders; national values and diverse local narratives). The author argues that it is illegitimate to speak of universal human rights, universal human dignity, or universal social justice. It is only by recognising this reality that transformation of human rights and citizenship can be meaningfully undertaken.

Quiet Revolutionaries

The Married Women's Association and Family Law

Sharon Thompson, Cardiff University, UK

This book provides a unique analysis of how our current law has been shaped by feminist activism, exploring the attempts of the Married Women's Association (MWA) to achieve economic and legal equality between spouses.

It focuses on the MWA’s defeats as well as its successes, placing particular emphasis on the Association’s failed Bills. It demonstrates how and why law is reformed, and the limitations of law in achieving gender equality. This in turn provides vital insight into processes of family law reform and into questions about marriage and divorce that are proving newsworthy and provocative today.

Habitual Ethics?

Sylvie Delacroix, University of Birmingham, UK

This open access book develops an in-depth account of habit in order to understand its impact upon the way moral decisions are made in a professional context. It calls for renewed attention to be paid to habits and their relationship to ethical agency. Mostly neglected in moral and legal theory, such an inquiry is essential if we are to come to grips with the challenges raised by the profession's growing reliance upon automated systems.

Fragmentation and the European Patent System

Karen Walsh, Maynooth University, Ireland

The European patent system (EPS) is undoubtedly fragmented, which is generally seen as a negative aspect of the system that needs to be removed. This book questions that viewpoint and takes the unique perspective that fragmentation is in fact inherent in the EPS and can, in certain circumstances, be a positive feature.

The book proposes a theoretical analysis of fragmentation as a feature of supranational law-making and legal systems. It draws on jurisprudence from international law, in which fragmentation is inherent, and uses that analysis to propose alternative methods of harmonising the EPS, while ensuring national diversity.

Intellectual Property Excesses Exploring the Boundaries of IP Protection

Edited by Enrico Bonadio, City, University of London, UK & Aislinn O’Connell, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

This book highlights the sometimes absurd outcomes which an unjustified overprotection of intellectual property (IP) may lead to. It collects and comments on a series of IP disputes which have taken the notion of IP protection to extremes.

The aim of the book is to criticise these excesses because they contribute to creating an environment where more and more people are led to ‘hate’ IP. This is not a book against IP, it is instead a call for change and an attempt to ‘save’ IP from continuing to be an easy target for criticism.

Re-Inventing Labour Law Enforcement

A Socio-Legal Analysis

Louise Munkholm, University of Southern Denmark

The monograph investigates labour law enforcement from a socio-legal perspective. It analyses how local Italian enforcement actors promote the protection of workers in Prato – a city that has seen a significant influx of Chinese migrants who run small workshops as part of the local clothing industry. Many of the Chinese firms fail to live up to core labour standards, such as maximum working hours, safety and health at work and payment of social security contributions. Based on interviews, observations and document material, the book analyses the strategies and practices employed by three types of local enforcement actors (inspectors, unionists and consultants) in their efforts to assist Chinese firms in improving their level of labour law compliance.

Effective Enforcement of EU Labour Law

Edited by Zane Rasnaca, European Trade Union Institute, Belgium, Aristea Koukiadaki, University of Manchester, UK, Niklas Bruun, Hanken School of Economics, Finland & Klaus Lörcher, Former Legal Adviser to the European Trade Union Confederation, Belgium

This book by the ETUI Transnational Trade Union Rights Expert Network analyses enforcement as a key element making EU labour law effective or ineffective.

The book takes a threefold approach by exploring the idea of effective enforcement and the classic types of enforcement from the perspective of EU labour law. It then analyses how enforcement operates in particular contexts, including non-discrimination, health and safety, information and consultation rights, and the rights of migrating workers, before finally turning to specific actors (whistleblowers, the European Labour Authority) and settings (public procurement, economic and monetary policy).

Regulating Online Speech

Ian Cram, University of Leeds, UK

This book delivers an original analysis of the legal regulation of online speech and defends a participatory account of speech in non-deliberative settings. The legal and policy implications for governments and social media platforms of this inclusive envisioning of public discourse are then elaborated upon. Speech on public platforms has become democratised. At the same time, concerns exist about disinformation. The downsides of democratised speech are said to undermine the integrity of democratic processes and institutions.

International Agreements between Non-State Actors as a Source of International Law

Melissa Loja, National University of Singapore, Singapore

This book adopts postmodern legal positivism, departing from the more usual state-centric analysis, to explore whether agreements with non state actors can be considered sources of law. It acknowledges that international law-making takes place in subjective social landscapes. It moves beyond a conceptual discussion, and looks at the question in an applied context, taking as its case study petroleum agreements allowing two or more states to exploit disputed resources across boundaries.

Written by one of the world’s leading public international lawyers, it offers an authoritative overview of how public international law operates in relation to islands. Key issues such as sovereignty, territorial rights, and governance are explored in depth. This will become a classic text in the field of international law.

Territorial Status in International Law

Jure Vidmar, Maastricht University, the Netherlands

This book develops a new theory of territorialism and international legal status of territories. It (i) defines the concept of territory, explaining how territories are created; (ii) redefines the concept of statehood, illustrating that statehood (rather than the statehood criteria) is territorial legal status established in the formal sources of international law; and (iii) grounds non-state territorial entities in the sources of international law to explain their international legal status. This fresh new theoretical perspective has both scholarly and practical importance, providing a tool helping decision-makers and judges in the practical application of international law.

State Responsibility for NonState Actors

Past, Present and Prospects for the Future

Richard Mackenzie-Gray Scott, University of Oxford, UK

This book investigates how state responsibility is determined for the wrongdoing of non-state actors. People, businesses and societies pay a price for interactions between states and non-state actors. From insurrections that attempt to create new governments, to states arming belligerent proxies, to companies damaging natural environments or providing suspect services, their impact are felt in numerous ways. They also give rise to many questions relating to responsibility. In answering these, this book provides a picture of what the law governing this area is, what it could be, and what it should be in light of the past, present, and future.

Banning ‘Conversion Therapy’ Legal and Policy Perspectives

Edited by Ilias Trispiotis, University of Leeds, UK & Craig Purshouse, University of Liverpool, UK

Banning ‘Conversion Therapy’ brings together leading academics, legal and medical practitioners, policymakers, and activists to illuminate the legislative and non-legislative steps that are required to protect individuals from the harms of ‘conversion therapy’ in different contexts.

Spaces of Care

Edited by Loraine Gelsthorpe, University of Cambridge, Perveez Mody, University of Cambridge & Brian Sloan, University of Cambridge

Coordinated by the Cambridge Socio-Legal Group this edited collection interrogates the ways in which the interdisciplinary study of care challenges and provokes a reassessment of the points of connection and disjuncture between care and governance, ethics, and public, personal and professional identities.

Leading lawyers, anthropologists, sociologists and criminologists reflect on specific aspects of conceptualising caring relations in ‘spaces’ including: Communities of care and abandonment; Selfcare and kinship care; Spaces as ‘gaps’ in care; The meanings of marketised care and the ways in which care is constructed and constrained in different ways in venues such as homes, prisons, workplaces and virtual spaces.

Political Control of America's Courts

Examining the Facts

Helena Silverstein, Lafayette College, USA

A deeply researched and even-handed account of the relationship between America's judicial branch—which is supposed to view law through a nonpartisan lens—and the partisanship that is such a notorious force in the operations of the nation's other two branches of government. Is political combat over judicial nominations worse than ever? What impact has the politicization of the courts had on public faith in our judicial system and the laws we all live by? What reforms have been proposed to address the alleged politicization of American courts? This work will provide insights into all these questions and more.

Soundings and the Politics of Sociolinguistic Listening for Transnational Space

Kinga Kozminska, University of Oxford, UK

In a world dominated by the visual, this book highlights how a focus on the sounded sign may bring us closer to the ways in which bodies and meanings are (re)made, and collective doing and thinking are formed in the globalised world. Examining the emerging logics and rhythms among a group belonging to the first generation of UK Polish migrants, the book focuses on the semiotic processes through which contemporary moving bodies and communities place themselves in sociolinguistic landscapes and considers how they develop metrics to account for sociolinguistic change and authenticate their projects and practices in transnational timespace.

Edited by Christian W. Chun, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA

Applied Linguistics and Politics explores how innovative theories, methodologies and pedagogies in applied linguistics can address the political challenges and issues arising in the 21st century. The volume focuses on the various ways in which the political is discursively and materially realized in its dialogic co-constructions within the media, the economy, culture, affect and education. Examining the power instantiations of sociolinguistic and semiotic practices in society from a variety of critical perspectives, chapters question how applied linguists can respond to, and challenge, current discourses of militarism, nationalism, Islamophobia, sexism, racism and the free market.

Exploring British Sign Language via Systemic Functional Linguistics

A Metafunctional Approach

Luke A. Rudge, University of the West of England, UK

Presenting a description and analysis of British Sign Language (BSL) from the perspective of Hallidayean Systemic Functional Linguistics, Luke A. Rudge explores how BSL users make meaning from three different perspectives:

- How exchanges of information are managed at a social level (the interpersonal metafunction)

- How experience is encoded in the language (the experiential metafunction)

- How communications are organised into coherent parts and wholes (the textual metafunction).

Examining these perspectives Exploring British Sign Language via Systemic Functional Linguistics, this provides a complementary viewpoint on how visual-spatial communications may be understood as social semiosis.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of World Theory

Edited by Jeffrey R. Di Leo, University of Houston-Victoria, USA & Christian Moraru, University of North Carolina, Greensboro, USA

The Bloomsbury Handbook of World Theory examines what “world” means and what it accomplishes in different zones of academic study. The contributors raise questions such as: What happens when “world” is appended to a particular form of humanistic or scientific inquiry? How exactly does “worlding” bear on the theoretical operating system and the history of that field? What is the theory or theoretical model that allows “world” to function in a meaningful way in coordination with that knowledge domain?

The English Modernist Novel as Political Theology

Challenging the Nation

Charles Andrews, Whitworth University, USA

Exploring novels by Virginia Woolf, D. H. Lawrence, Evelyn Waugh, and Sylvia Townsend Warner as political theology—works that imagine a resistance to the fusion of Christianity and patriotism which fueled and supported the First World War – this book shows how we can gain valuable insights from their works for anti-militarist, anti-statist, and anti-nationalist efforts today. Andrews demonstrates the many ways that these novelists issue a challenge to the problems with civil religion and the sacralized nation state and, in so doing, offer alternative visions to coordinate our inner lives with our public and collective actions.

Narrating Medicine in Middle English Poetry

Poets, Practitioners, and the Plague Eve Salisbury

Filling a gap in what we know about medical writing in England in the 100+ years after the advent of the “Great Mortality”, this book calls attention to a discourse that privileges illness narratives, strategies of self-care, and the voices of poets, patients, and practitioners. When read in conjunction with medical treatises, plague tractates, and verse remedies, literary narratives disclose an experience of illness that other genres of medical writing lack, thus enabling us to see the kinship between poetry and the healing arts.

Half a century of analytic practice in literary style and image-media analysis is distilled here by the sampled work of the most prolific and broadly interdisciplinary critic of his generation. Excerpts from his 20 books are framed by editorial retrospect and overview before being linked by Stewart’s own commentary on the variety – and underlying vectors – of his interpretive career across media. Accompanied by a glossary of his influential coinages, this cornucopia of eye-opening analyses is also a chronicle of evolving paradigms in the work of intensive reading.

Kabbalah and Literature

Kitty Millet, San Francisco State University, USA

This study examines the intersection of Kabbalah with secular Jewish literatures to point to how the Jewish mystical tradition contributes to the renewal of literature in a modern, global and increasingly disconnected age. Kitty Millet explores Kabbalah’s conceptual underpinnings, aesthetic principles, tenets and signifiers to demonstrate how literature’s absorption of kabbalistic material has altered its ontology, function and the tasks it sets for itself. In this way, Kabbalah and Literature proposes a novel, intuitive approach, shifting focus away from the Jewish text’s epistemological elements to embrace its 'secrets'.

Reading the work of major figures such as Elie Wiesel, Paul Celan, Avrom Sutzkever, Ida Fink, Wladyslaw Szlengel, Itzhak Katzenelson, and Czeslaw Milosz, Poesis in Extremis poses fundamental questions about how prose and poetry are written under extreme conditions, either in real time or immediately after the Holocaust. Framed by discussion of truth in fiction and fiction as truth, with Wiesel’s Night as an entry point, this innovative book explores the blurred boundary of fact and fiction in Holocaust literature, asking to what extent poetry and fiction can serve as testimony and what might be the criteria for literary witnessing.

Fiction

Edited

In contrast to other studies that examine morality in crime fiction through the lenses of personal guilt and personal justice, this book draws together threads that are often treated separately: personal guilt and social guilt. In recent years public awareness has attended to the relationship between social structures and justice, and this collection centers on how personal and social ethics are bound together amidst the shifting moral landscapes of mystery fiction. Featuring essays on Japanese, Filipino, Indian and Colombian mystery fiction as well as American and British fiction, this volume also analyzes social guilt and justice across cultures.

Hope and Kinship in Contemporary Fiction

Moods and Modes of Temporality and Belonging

Gero Bauer, University of Tübingen, Center for Gender and Diversity Research, Germany

This book investigates dimensions of temporality and belonging in contemporary novels, films and television series – including The Road, The Walking Dead, Cloud Atlas, Sense8 and A Little Life – as they find their expression in the interplay between hope and kinship. Taking its cue from an understanding of hope as an organising temporality, often presumed to be in the future, Bauer challenges this understanding, arguing that hope emerges in practices of kingship in the present, disentangling hope from a necessary correlation with futurity.

Robinson Murphy, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, USA

As the #MeToo movement made clear, we require new tools for imagining alternative masculinities. Enter Castration Desire, which examines an array of contemporary novelists and filmmakers who are emblematic of a transnational phenomenon that Robinson Murphy calls “castration desire.” Figures such as Japanese-British Kazuo Ishiguro, IrishCanadian Emma Donoghue, Sri Lankan-Canadian Michael Ondaatje, South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho, and South African-Australian J.M. Coetzee present privileged characters who nonetheless pursue their own diminishment. Castration Desire examines how, in promulgating through their characters a less egocentric mode of thinking and acting, these transnational artists offer a blueprint for engendering a more other-oriented relationality.

The Political Uses of Literature Global Perspectives and Theoretical Approaches, 1920-2020

Edited by Benjamin Kohlmann & Ivana Perica, University of Vienna, Austria

Analysing the rich global histories of 20th- and 21st-century politicized writing, this volume reopens discussion of literature’s political and activist genealogies, drawing attention to the important body of interwar politicized literature and tracing the mobilization of related conversations and artistic practices across subsequent historical moments, most notably the 1960s and our own present – including case studies from the Americas, Europe, Africa, India and Russia. In mapping out these diverse traditions, contributors advance critical discussions in the field, but most importantly, this volume insists on the need to think about literature’s political uses today.

Derivative Lives

Biofiction, Uncertainty, and Speculative Risk in Contemporary Spanish Narrative

Virginia Newhall Rademacher, Babson College, USA

The title of this book, Derivative Lives, alludes to the challenge of finding one’s way within the contemporary market of virtually limitless information and claims to veracity. It is easy to feel lost in spaces of uncertainty where biographical truth teeters between the real and the imaginative. The title points to the prolific market of biographical novels that openly and intentionally play in the speculative space between the real and the fictional. Drawing on theories of risk and uncertainty, Derivative Lives considers the surge in biofiction in Spain and globally, relating literary expression to circumstantiality, derivatives, speculation, and game studies.

The Geschlecht Complex Addressing Untranslatable Aspects of Gender, Genre, and Ontology

The notion of Geschlecht – denoting gender, genre, kinship, and more – exemplifies the most pertinent questions of the transnational and transdisciplinary structures of contemporary humanities. What happens in the transference from one language, tradition, or form to another? Combining detailed case studies of “category problems” in literature, philosophy, theatre, media, cinema, and performing arts, with excerpts from canonical texts—by field-defining thinkers such as Derrida, Malabou, Nancy, and Irigaray—the volume presents “the Geschlecht complex” as a fulcrum for any interpretive endeavor, as an invaluable mode of thought for the present and inevitable complexities of theorizing in the 21st century.

Open Scholarship in the Humanities

Edited

From work in early and 19th-century American literary studies to the revisions of 20th-century literary studies occasioned by the rise of periodical studies, ways of conceptualizing American literary history have recently undergone significant revision. This collection features new approaches to cultural and literary history that draw on periodicals, print culture, and material culture, thus revising what we think we know about the aesthetic, cultural, and social history of transnational America. These essays focus on the materials and archives that highlight not a canon of “major” literary works but dialogues and tensions that define print cultures in various moments and movements.

What Readers Do Aesthetic and Moral Practices of a PostDigital Age

Beth Driscoll, University of Melbourne, Australia

Looking at everyday 21st-century readers of anglophone fiction, Beth Driscoll explores reading culture through three dimensions: aesthetic conduct, moral conduct, and self-care. It probes at how readers intertwine private and social behaviors, and both reinforce and oppose structures of capitalism. Analyzing reading as a post-digital practice for its synthesis of both print and digital modes and on-and offline behaviors, Driscoll puts forwards a methodology for studying readers that connects sociology, literary studies and actor-network theory. Covering practices such as book clubs, reader involvement with broadcast and social media, this book drives forward debates about the significance of recreational reading.

The "German Illusion" Germany and Jewish-German Motifs in Hélène Cixous’s Late Work

Olivier Morel, University of Notre Dame, USA

As of January 2021, Hélène Cixous has published at least 1116 pages of texts related to “Germany.” These texts are written, in one way or another, under the name, under the signs or influence of “Germany,” “German,” “Osnabrück,” and read together they offer a unique literary meditation on the Holocaust. The study of Cixous’s “German trope” helps us refine our understanding of an uncannily original oeuvre that embodies the complexities of modernity’s genocidal history in a new way. It sheds light on under-researched dimensions of Cixous’s publications on gender while providing insights into a major creator of our time.

Authors and the World Literary Authorship in Modern Germany

Rebecca Braun, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland

How do authors relate to the wider world in which they live and work? What are the mechanisms that make one bestselling author famous well beyond her lifetime while another sinks without trace while still alive? Authors and the World traces how four core modes of authorship have developed and inflect one another in the particular contexts of late 20th- and early 21st-century Germany. It provides not just a radically new approach to German literary history but a new paradigm for thinking about how literary authorship differs by place and draws in different people from across the Western world.

Horror as Racism in H. P. Lovecraft

White Fragility in the Weird Tales

John L. Steadman, Independent Scholar

Building on recent debates about Lovecraft and drawing on the concept of "white fragility," this book argues that his fiction reflects feelings of resentment and anger towards non-white persons and was used to advocate for his racist, xenophobic political beliefs. The familiar image of Lovecraft as a creative genius and mentor to young writer-friends is dismantled through close examination of his fiction, nonfiction, and early biography. While some will dismiss the author outright and others will read his tales but ignore the racism, this book helps readers navigate the author’s disturbing biography while also getting a better sense of the stories.

Life Writing and the End of Empire Homecoming in Autobiographical Narratives

Emma Parker, Keele University, UK

Exploring how legacies of British colonialism have shaped modern life narrative, this book compares the autobiographical writings of Penelope Lively, J. G. Ballard, Doris Lessing and Janet Frame. Emma Parker illuminates unrecognized connections between them as they travelled to London from their respective childhood homes in Egypt, Shanghai, Southern Rhodesia, and New Zealand. This book asks what it means to be ‘at home’ in the former British Empire; scrutinizes the spaces of habitation through which the authors remember colonialism; coins the term speculative life writing; and examines material possessions that emblematize the legacies of the colonialism.

Assured Self, Restive Self Encounters with Crisis

Prasanta Chakravarty, University of Delhi, India

Through the rubrics of the assured and the restive, the volume addresses how selfhood encounters and negotiates crisis in life and literature. Does the idea of crisis allow us to formulate the idea of self in a particular way? How do certain sources and resources within the self – stoic or heroic, political and creative – come into being during crisis? It explores the encounter of the self with situations of crisis from diverse disciplinary and cultural perspectives from antiquity to contemporary times.

Circular Narratives in Modern European Literature

Juan Luis Toribio Vazquez, Sam Sharpe Teacher’s College, Jamaica

Breaking with linearity – the previously ruling narrative model – many 20th-century European writers adopted circular narrative forms. This study shows how this trend – among authors such as Strindberg, Stein, Queneau, Nabokov, Joyce, Beckett, Robbe-Grillet, Calvino and Blanchot – was not a unified nor conscious movement, but rather a series of works arising sporadically, using circular structures to express similar ideas. It also shows how the renewed understanding of narrative form leading to this circular trend was anticipated by Nietzsche’s critiques of truth, knowledge, language and metaphysics, and his related discussions of nihilism and the eternal recurrence.

The Comics Form

The Art of Sequenced Images

Chris Gavaler, Washington and Lee University, USA

Answering foundational questions like "what is a comic" and "how do comics work" in original and imaginative ways, this book adapts established, formalist approaches to explaining the experience of reading comics. Taking stock of a multitude of case studies and examples, The Comics Form demonstrates that any object can be read as a comic so long as it displays a set of relevant formal features. Drawing from the worlds of art criticism and literary studies to put forward innovative new ways of thinking and talking about comics, this book also challenges terminology and established theorizing terms to show how their definitions could be tightened up in the contexts of comics studies.

Faulkner’s Fashion Gender, Race, Class, and Clothing

Christopher Rieger, Southeast Missouri State University, USA

Clothing is one of the most important and pervasive material items throughout William Faulkner’s fiction. This book analyzes the writer’s use of clothing from a variety of critical approaches, considering how clothing and dress intersect with race, class, and gender across Faulkner’s novels and short stories. It also considers clothes as material objects, using Thing Theory and Object Oriented Ontology to illuminate the role clothing plays as an object in conjunction with its multiple layers of symbolic meaning to both the wearer and the observer.

The Rebellion of Forms in Modern Persian Poetry

Politics of Poetic Experimentation

Farshad Sonboldel, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA

This book analyses the aesthetic, cultural and political aspects of alternative poetic movements and individual poets in the Constitutional Revolution (1900–1920), the post-constitutional era (1920–1940) and the ascendency of modernism (1940–1960) in Iran. Dominant narratives portray modern Persian poetry as a gradual and moderate change as well as a response to – and reflection of – cultural and socio-political changes within Iranian society. Examining formal and thematic aspects of radical experiments by alternative poets, this study reformulates the story of modern Persian poetry and their role in the initiation and progress of the 'literary revolution'.

Imaginary Worlds and Real Ethics in Japanese Fiction

Case Studies in Novel Reflexivity

Christopher Weinberger, San Francisco State University, USA

Can novels contribute to the ethical lives of readers? What responsibilities might they bear in representing others? Are we accountable for how we read fiction? This book takes up modern Japanese fiction and metafiction, subjects often ignored by Anglophone scholarship on novel ethics, to discover answers to these and other questions. Offering new readings of works by Mori Ogai and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Weinberger shows how they address key issues in new ethical theories. Finally, the author identifies a continuity between the methods of Japan’s modern novel progenitors and those of novelists at the forefront of global literature today.

Historicizing Modernism

James Joyce and Cultural Genetics

The Joycean Genome

As a genetic study, this book uncovers the creative DNA of James Joyce’s oeuvre by looking at the cultural forces that shaped him and that he in turn shaped in the creation of his books, developing a two-way relationship with history, memory and national identity. It examines Joyce's oeuvre, from A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, through Ulysses to Finnegans Wake

Based on evidence from his personal library and the extensive archive of reading notes, ideas, sketches and drafts, this book investigates how Joyce used, absorbed and repurposed these materials creatively in his writing.

Modernism in Wonderland

Legacies of Lewis Carroll

Retracing the steps of a surprising array of twentiethcentury writers who ventured into the fantastical, topsy-turvy world of Lewis Carroll’s fictions and discovered there the quintessence of their own modernity, this book demonstrates that Carroll’s influence extended far beyond literary style, pervading all aspects of modern life from commercial culture to politics, from philosophy to the new physics. Recovering a common touchstone between the likes of T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf and writers conventionally regarded on the periphery of modernist studies, such as Sylvia Plath, Jorge Luis Borges, and Vladimir Nabokov, this volume ultimately provides a new entry-point into a more broadly conceptualised global modernism.

Historicizing Modernists Approaches to ‘Archivalism’

Edited by Matthew Feldman, University of York, UK, Anna Svendsen & Erik Tonning, University of Bergen, Norway

Focussing upon both canonical figures such as Woolf, Eliot, Pound, and Stein and emergent themes such as Christian modernism, intermedial modernism and queer Harlem Renaissance, this volume brings together previously unseen materials, from various archives, to bear upon cutting-edge interpretations of modernism. It provides an overview of approaches to modernism via the employment of various types of primary source material: correspondence, manuscripts and drafts, memoirs and production notes, reading notes and marginalia, and all manner of useful contextualising sources like news reports or judicial records.

Ezra Pound

Edited by Erik Tonning, University of Bergen, Norway

Collecting in full for the first time the correspondence between Ezra Pound and members of Leo Frobenius' Forschungsinstitut für Kulturmorphologie in Frankfurt across a 30 year period, this book sheds new light on an important influence on Pound's controversial intellectual development in the Fascist era. These letters reveal the extent of the impact of Frobenius' concept of 'Paideuma' on Pound's poetic and political writings during this period and his growing engagement with the culture of Nazi Germany.

The Distance of Irish Modernism Memory, Narrative, Representation

John Greaney, Goethe University,

Germany

Interrogating how Irish modernist fictions have become containers for national and transnational histories, this book launches a meta-critical study of the modes of inquiry used to define Irish modernism in the 21st century. Focused on works by Samuel Beckett, Elizabeth Bowen, John McGahern, Flann O’Brien and Kate O’Brien, Greaney analyses the complex representational strategies of modernist fictions and how they provide a window on historical events and realities. Emphasizing the proximities and the distances between modernist aesthetic practice and the history of modernity in Ireland and beyond, this book enables a new model for narrating Irish modernism.

Angela Brintlinger, Ohio State University, USA

Russia haunted the British cultural imagination throughout the 20th century – whether as a romantic source of literary and political inspiration or as a warning of creeping totalitarianism. In this new book, Ira B. Nadel, charts the story of that influence through the work of some of the key figures in British literature across the century, including Joseph Conrad, Somerset Maugham, Jane Harrison, Virginia Woolf, and H.G. Wells.

Hyperbolic Realism

A Wild Reading of Pynchon's and Bolaño's Late Maximalist Fiction

Samir Sellami, Hamburg Institute for Social Research, Germany

What comes after postmodernism in literature?

Hyperbolic Realism engages the contradiction that while it remains impossible to present a full picture of the world, assessing reality from a planetary perspective seems now more than ever an ethical obligation for contemporary literature. It examines the hyperbolic forms and features of Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day and Roberto Bolaño's 2666 – their discursive and material abundance, excessive fictionality, close intertwining of fantastic and historical genres, narrative doubt and spiraling uncertainty – which are deployed not as an escape from, but a plunge into reality.

Fictional Aesthetics and Memory

after Postmodernism

Edited by Paulo de Medeiros, University of Warwick, UK & Ana Paula Arnaut, University of Coimbra, Portugal

This is first critical assessment of the contemporary novel in Portugal available in English. The works under analysis are varied and representative of the most vibrant work in Portugal since 2000, and the editors’ introductory chapter theorizes the concept of the hypercontemporary as one way of looking at the Novel after its postmodern period – especially in its relation to questions of violence, memory and performativity. Readings also discuss new topics and writing strategies as well as the use of innovative graphic forms available from current print technologies and global networks.

Mapping Middle-earth Environmental and Political Narratives in J. R. R. Tolkien's Cartographies

Anahit Behrooz, Independent Researcher

This book demonstrates how Tolkien’s corpus of maps are crucial to understanding broader narratives between humans and their environment within his legendarium. It examines how cartography has traditionally represented displays of power and undertakes a diegetic literary analysis of the maps as examples of Middle-earth’s own cultural output that reveal a sub-created tradition of cartography that articulates both the specific power dynamics between the map maker, the map reader, and what is being mapped, and the human/nature binary that represents the control that humans attempt to enact over the natural world.

Worldly Spirits, Extra-Human Dimensions, and the Global Anglophone Novel

Hilary Thompson, Bowdoin College, USA

Engaging contemporary Anglophone literature from the Asian, Middle Eastern and Caribbean diasporas, this book explores how such works invoke spirit forces, spirit realms and spirit beings such as positive forces that present visions of the Earth as agentive and animate. Rejecting notions that these are uncanny hauntings or products of an exotic East or global South, this book builds a critical framework for analysing worldly spirits that draws upon anthropological discussions of animism, the art movement Dimensionism, and multispecies theories of animals’ diverse perceptual worlds. A refreshing rejection of ecological apocalypticism, this book unsettles conceptualizations of Anglophone and Anthropocene literatures.

The first exploration of the short fiction of Shirley Jackson, this volume digs into the lasting impact of her work and offers new methodologies to study it. Calling upon ideas of intertextuality, ecocriticism and psychoanalysis, it examines a broad range of themes from national identity, race, gender and class to domesticity, the occult, and mental illness. With consideration of her blockbuster works such as 'The Lottery' alongside later works that received lesser critical attention, this book promises a rich expansion on previous scholarship of Jackson's oeuvre, bringing her writing into the contemporary conversation, and ensuring her place in Horror fiction.

Mutant Narratives in Ecological Science Fiction

Thinking with Embodied Estrangement

Kaisa Kortekallio, University of Helsinki, Finland

Using an innovative multidisciplinary approach which is deeply invested in posthumanist thought, this book demonstrates how reading science fiction shapes the way we engage with lived environments. In dialogue with works by widely studied science fiction authors Greg Bear, N.K. Jemisin, Paolo Bacigalupi, and Jeff VanderMeer, it draws out how they function as mutant narratives. The first to systematically integrate three fields - feminist posthumanism, cognitive narratology, and science fiction studies - this book offers a complex and coherent understanding of readerly experience as material, embodied, dynamic, and imaginative.

Drawing on literature such as varied as H.G. Wells’s The Time Machine, Neil Gaiman’s American Gods, and Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games, and on TV and film such as The Walking Dead, Black Mirror, and The Last of Us, Robert T. Tally Jr. explores the landscape of angst created by the monstrous accumulation of dystopian material. The Fiction of Dread provides an innovative reading of the present cultural climate and offers an alternative vision for critical theory and practice in a moment in which, as has been famously observed, it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.

The Afterlives of Frankenstein Popular and Artistic Adaptations and Reimaginings

Edited by Robert Lublin, University of Massachusets, Boston, USA & Elizabeth A. Fay, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA

An exploration of adaptations of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein in film, comics, theatre, art, videogames and more, this book illuminates how the novel's myth has evolved since its publication. Divided into four sections, it considers the cultural dialogues the novel has engaged with in specific historical moments; the examples of how Frankenstein has suffused our cultural consciousness; and how the Frankenstein myth has become a locus for reinvention and imaginative interpretation. In the final part, artists respond to the Frankenstein legacy today, reintroducing it into cultural circulation in ways that speak creatively to current anxieties and concerns.

A Cultural History of Disability in Antiquity

A Cultural History of Disability in the Middle Ages

Edited

Though there was no word for, or a concept of, disability in Antiquity, a considerable part of the population experienced physical or mental conditions that put them at a disadvantage.

An essential resource for researchers, scholars and students of history, literature, culture and education, this book explores atypical bodies; mobility impairment; chronic pain and illness; blindness; deafness; speech; learning difficulties; and mental health.

Britain’s Man on the Spot in Iraq and Afghanistan

Government

and Diplomacy by Sir Henry Dobbs at the Apex of Empire

Ann

While little known today, Henry Dobbs was a key architect of the treaties that secured British India’s borders with restive Afghanistan and the Mandatory Iraq. This book brings Dobbs’s role in these events at the apex of the British Empire to light, drawing on previously untapped sources made up of Dobbs’ private records and letters and official sources to do so. Revealed are Dobbs’s interactions with other members of the colonial administration and its advisors, including Percy Cox and Gertrude Bell, combined with the personal reflections of a ‘man on the spot’ which show the contingency that attended the twilight decades of the British Empire.

States of Exception or Exceptional States

Law, Politics and Giorgio Agamben in the Middle East

Edited by Simon Mabon, University of Lancaster, UK, Sanaa Al Sarghali, An-Najah UniversityNablus, Palestine & Adel Ruished, Lancaster University, UK

This book uses a multi-disciplinary approach to explore the application of the work of philosopher Giorgio Agamben to the Middle East after the Arab Uprisings, considering the evolution of regime-society relations that ultimately erupted in violence in the early months of 2011. Agamben’s ideas of the state of exception and bare life provide important intellectual tools to understand the nature of sovereignty and the regulation of life, which has largely been missing in the study of the region.

Atatürk Father of the Republic of Turkey

George W. Gawrych

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was one of the most significant political leaders of the twentieth century. In this book, George Gawrych studies Atatürk’s career in detail, showing how Atatürk married the traits of the classic military man-of-action with those of the intellectual, theorist and pragmatist as a statesman. Gawrych places Atatürk in the context of his times to reveal how he harnessed wider forces to set Turkey on a path of secular nationalism and comprehensive modernization. His legacy can be seen everywhere in Turkey today, from the role and rights of women in society to the struggle for developing a democracy in the Republic. Gawrych addresses the costs of Atatürk’s policies, including the suppression of minorities and the imposition of a cult of personality and authoritarian rule in the name of ‘Turkification’. The book presents a nuanced analysis of a complex figure who consciously created a living legacy that still casts a shadow over Turkey’s political and intellectual discourse.

American Diplomacy Toward Lebanon Lessons in Foreign Policy and the Middle East

David Hale, Wilson Center, USA

David Hale examines several key episode in US diplomatic history with Lebanon, starting with Lebanon's independence in 1943, and bringing the themes to the present. Crucial events such as the Lebanese Civil War, the Cedar Revolution, and more recently the spillover from the Syrian Civil War, are examined within the context of the respective US government administrations of the time and their foreign policy strategies. This study focuses on how, during these critical periods, American diplomacy toward Lebanon had consequences beyond the country itself, and on the narrative lines and lessons for the broader conduct of American foreign policy.

Mapping the Fault Lines in Turkey-US Relations

Making the Vulnerable Partnership

Kilic Bugra Kanat

While Turkish-US relations have always been susceptible to different crises, they enjoyed a brief “golden era” in the 1950s. This book argues that a false nostalgia about that period has distorted analyses by scholars and policymakers ever since. To provide a more accurate assessment, this book look at the patterns of crises between the two countries throughout history and how these relate to the current crises in Turkish-American relations today. It coins a new conceptual framework to understand this partnership: the “vulnerable partnership”. It is the only book in English dedicated to the history of Turkish-American relations.

Land and Legal Texts in the Early Modern Ottoman Empire Harmonization, Property Rights and Sovereignty

Malissa Taylor, University of Massachusetts

Amherst, USA

Published in association with the British Institute at Ankara this book uses Arabic and Ottoman Turkish sources drawn from three genres of legal text, this book is the first full-length study in decades to investigate the evolution of Ottoman land law from its “classical” articulation in the sixteenth century to its reformulation in the 1858 Land Code. The book demonstrates that the rising consensus of the early modern jurists that the sultan was the source of the land law paved the way for the wider legislative authority that the Ottoman state would increasingly assert in the Tanzimat period of reform.

Religious Minorities in Iraq

women

This book provides a critical analysis of current post-conflict frameworks for Syria and Iraq. Drawing on empirical research, the book shows that reconciliation and reconstruction scenarios need to be considered alongside the realities on the ground. It argues that Iraq and Syria exist in a condition of ‘conflict transformation’ rather than of ‘conflict termination’, because the extreme changes that accompanied these countries into war continue long after the conflicts end. A critical analysis of existing post-conflict frameworks, their applicability and their potential outcomes in Iraq and Syria, the book is a vital contribution to post-conflict studies.

Co-Existence, Faith and Recovery after ISIS

Maria Rita Corticelli, International University of Erbil, Iraq

The religious minorities of Iraq suffered immense violence at the hands of ISIS and are now trying to rebuild their lives. In their own words, and based on interviews with over 100 people, this book tells their stories. Covering the experiences of the Christians, Kakais, Yezidis, Sunni Muslims and Shabaks, amongst others, the research reveals how the different communities narrate their beliefs and deal with life in the aftermath of ISIS. This is the first book to illustrate how a strong network between the minorities operates in an effort to peacefully coexist, based on their shared experience of persecution and oppression.

Palestinian Refugee Women from Syria to Jordan

Decolonizing the Geopolitics of Displacement

Afaf Jabiri, University of East London, UK

In this book Afaf Jabiri examines the experiences of Palestinian women from Syria displaced to Jordan and argues for a feminist analysis of settler-colonialism, particularly in the case of second displacement. Based on four years of field research in camps in Jordan - including interviews with Palestinian refugee women, aid workers, and representatives of international organisations and NGOs in Jordan - the book highlights how local women’s groups and frontline workers attempt to fill service gaps. The book reveals how these groups have challenged state politics, the selectivity of aid, and the politics of the gendered development approach in humanitarian settings.

Slavery in the Modern Middle East and North Africa

Exploitation and Resistance from the 19th Century - Present Day

Edited by

How have practices of slavery existed over the past two centuries in the Middle East and North Africa? This book argues that in spite of the great regional diversity between and within the states studied, clear commonalities exist in the practices of slavery across this super-region. The book is the first to focus on slavery from the 19th century to the present day and the authors focus on the unheard voices of slaves. The chapters are based on sources in Arabic, Persian, Turkish and materials in minor and endangered languages, such as Soqotri, Balochi and Sorani Kurdish.

The Formation of the UAE State-Building and Arab Nationalism in the Middle East

Kristi Barnwell, University of Illinois, USA

Based on primary source materials from British and American government archives, speeches, government publications from the Arab Emirates - as well as memoirs and secondary sources - the book sheds light on the processes and problems surrounding the creation of the UAE. Kristi Barnwell demonstrates that Arab rulers in the Persian Gulf strove to create their new state with close ties to Great Britain, which provided technical, military and administrative assistance to the Emirates; while also publicly embracing the popular ideologies of anti-imperialism and Arab socialism that were still dominating the political discourse in the Arab world.

Russian-Iranian Alignment in the Middle East

Ghoncheh Tazmini, London School of Economics, UK

To understand the Russia-Iran relationship, this book assesses the foundation upon which Moscow and Tehran have built their strategic partnership. Ghoncheh Tazmini argues for a Russia-Iran ‘alignment’, which is based on their shared narratives of the international order. She shows that to counteract US unilateralism, and with both states feeling internationally isolated, the Kremlin needs Tehran as much as Tehran needs the Kremlin. The book shows that despite their differences, Russian-Iranian relations are a lot more durable than many in the West and the Middle East may believe.

Representing PostRevolutionary Iran

Captivity, Neo-Orientalism, and Resistance in Iranian–American Life

Writing

Hossein Nazari, University of Tehran, Iran

This book analyses the processes of production, promotion, and reception of memoirs of diasporic Iranian-American authors. It provides new perspectives on key examples of the genre such as Betty Mahmoody’s Not Without My Daughter, Azar Nafisi’s Reading Lolita in Tehran and Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. Hossein Nazari places these texts in their social and political contexts, tracing their origins within the trope of the America captivity narrative, and critically unearths their neo-Orientalist tendencies within. The book analyses the structural means by which stereotypes about Islam and women in the Islamic Republic in these narratives are privileged by news media and the creative industries, while also charting a growing number of counterhegemonic memoirs which challenge these narratives by representing more nuanced accounts of life in Iran after 1979.

Rebels with a Cause The Failure of the Left in Iran

The author here unearths new details and provides fresh insights into an enduring puzzle of modern Iranian political history, concluding that the Left’s demise came from a combination of Iran’s geopolitical setting, where both the Soviet and western worlds saw advantage in the stability of Iran during the Cold War, as well as internal factors such as splits and factionalism, and - not least - the Iranian Left’s over-enthusiastic devotion to a barren Stalinism with its poverty of philosophy and ideas. Based on primary and secondary Persian-language sources never before published in English, this book is a crucial addition to the literature on modern Iranian history and the study of communist and socialist history in general.

Ethos A Critique of Eurocentric Modernity

Ahmad Kasravi

Translated by Hamid Rezaei Yazdi, Humber College, Canada

Ethos is a radical critique of Eurocentrism. In it, prolific Iranian critic and intellectual Ahmad Kasravi unleashes a scathing attack on Europe’s selfperceived superiority as well as on Eastern promoters of the idea. Kasravi proceeds to outline the ills of post-Enlightenment European civilization: imperialism, colonialism, capitalism, Orientalism. Embedded in Europe’s notions of “progress,” these phenomena have in reality brought about social Darwinism, racism, war-mongering, materialism, mindless consumerism, inequality and immorality in the world. Disputing the rationality or civility of these Western tokens, Kasravi warns Euro-enthusiasts in his country of the consequences of wholesale Westernization and instead advocates for a vernacular modernity premised on the noble virtues of Iranian culture and of rationalist Islam. The book presents an embryonic articulation of postcolonial discourse which would, decades later, come to maturity and international recognition in the works of Edward Said and others.

Iranian-Saudi Rivalry since 1979 In the Words of Kings and Clerics

Talal Mohammad, University of Oxford, UK

This book examines Saudi-Iranian rivalry through the lens of discourse analysis. It tracks how each country represents ‘the Other’ in their official statements, media and sermons. The author, fluent in both Arabic and Persian, provides original insights by examining in parallel how the process of Othering functions in the pursuit of their political rivalry and religious conflict. Looking at speeches and pronouncements of the political elites, state-sponsored media and leading clerics in both countries since 1979, it explores the tropes and narratives adopted by each to (mis) represent the Other and identifies a pattern of power plays and mutual provocations.

Muhammad ‘Abduh

Modern Islam and the Culture of Ambiguity

Oliver Scharbrodt, University of Birmingham, UK Provides a complete intellectual biography of Muhammad ‘Abduh (1849-1905), one of the most influential Muslim modernist reformers of the 19th century. The book adopts a biographical approach in order to delineate his intellectual formation as a reformer and to illustrate significant developments and breaks throughout his life. By using new sources – in particular his writings from his early politically activist career – the book illustrates ‘Abduh’s complex intellectual formation and the various traditional religious, philosophical and cultural influences that shaped him.

State, Society and Islam in the Western Regions of the Sahara Regional Interactions and Social Change

This open access book takes a deeper and broader perspective on the Hassaniya speaking peoples’ struggle for self-determination in the Western Sahara. So far, in-depth understanding and analysis remains neglected and little work has been undertaken on the diverse experiences of the Hassaniya and the contrasting political regimes under which they live. This book examines the complex and ambiguous relations between statehood, Islam, nation building and identity formation in hassanophone northwest Africa. Contributors present new analysis and up-to-date fieldwork to provide an inside perspective on these populations and their regional interactions, shedding new light on the region.

British Jews and Imperial Service

Nationalism, Pan-Islamism and Zionism in Mandate Palestine and Colonial India

In the aftermath of WWI, the British empire sent a new generation of officers to govern the increasingly tumultuous colonial territories. Among them were three British-Jewish men, whose careers went on to defy the antisemitism of their time. This book explores the lives of these men, charting the way they navigated the landmark events and policies that set the course for the instability and ultimate collapse of British imperial rule. Investigating to what extent their Jewish backgrounds impacted their careers, this book sheds new light on the controversies of British imperial rule in the inter-war period and its damning legacies.

Israel is exerting control on Palestine in ways that have never been seen before. This book identifies these sites of control and domination and how they operate across intellectual, ecological, political and economic levels. It also demonstrates how these sites of control are resisted. Split into four themed parts, the book offers readers critical, interdisciplinary and decolonial perspectives that are based on fieldwork. It provides an understanding of how neoliberalism, imperial histories, and settler colonialism foster exploitation and dispossession.

The Arab Nahda as Popular Entertainment

Mass Culture and Modernity in the Middle East

Edited by Hala Auji, American University of Beirut, Lebanon, Raphael Cormack, Columbia University, USA & Alaaeldin Mahmoud, American University of the Middle East, Kuwait Studies on the 19th to mid-20th century’s transformative cultural movement known as the Arab nahda (renaissance), have largely considered the moment’s concerns with nationalism, secularism, and language, often told from the perspective of privileged groups. This collection shifts the focus away from elite circles to quotidian audiences, exploring music, visual media, theatre and popular fiction. Paying special attention to networks of movement and exchange across Arab societies in Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Iraq, and Morocco, the ‘translocal/transnational’ cultural histories in the book also contribute to global studies on gender, sexuality, and morality.

Desert Voices

Bedouin Women's Poetry in Saudi Arabia

Moneera Al-Ghadeer

The Bedouin, or 'desert dwellers', have a rich cultural heritage often expressed through music and poetry. Here, Moneera Al-Ghadeer provides us with the first comparative reading of women's oral poetry from Saudi Arabia. She examines women's lyrics of love, desire, mourning and grievance. We come to understand Bedouin mores and - most significantly - the unique description of a desert that is consistently held to be infinite, evocative, stimulating and an eternal freedom. As the first English translation and analysis of this poetry, Desert Voices is both a gesture to preserving the oral poetic tradition of Bedouin women and a radical critique addressing the exclusion of their poetry from current academic literary studies. The book provides invaluable material for reflection in the debates around oral culture and women's poetic composition while it translates, presents and critically examines a genre, which opens Arabic poetry and literature to contemporary theory and criticism.

Theodore Metochites

Patterns of Self-representation in Fourteenth Century Byzantium

Ioannis Polemis, University of Athens, Greece

In this book, Ioannis Polemis provides the first in-depth study of Byzantine statesmen and philosopher Theodore Metochites’ oeuvre, revealing the complex way he represented the authorial self to critique the politics and mores of his day, whilst at the same time shielding himself from potential criticism. Polemis details the way Metochites deftly manipulated figures and tropes from classical antiquity and early Christianity to justify his role in public life, which was traditionally shunned by scholars in the pursuit of ‘logos’. The book provides unique insights into one of the late Empire’s most important figures, as well as more widely deepening our understanding of classical reception in Byzantium and the social, political and intellectual climate of Constantinople in the fourteenth century.

Muslims on the Volga in the Viking Age In the Footsteps of Ibn Fadlan

Edited by Jonathan Shepard, University of Cambridge, UK & Luke Treadwell, Oxford University, UK

The year 922 saw a series of remarkable face-toface encounters in the Central Asian steppes. Ibn Fadlan, an emissary from the Baghdad caliphate to the ruler of the Volga Bulgars, gives a vivid eyewitness description of the peoples he came upon en route. This unprecedented interdisciplinary study of Ibn Fadlan’s text and the world he surveyed draws on a variety of specialists to give readers both ‘the bigger picture’ of cultural and economic change in Eurasia, Byzantium and the Muslim world, and hard facts, in the form of archaeological and numismatic data.

Armenians in the Byzantine Empire

Identity, Assimilation and Alienation from 867 to 1098

Toby Bromige, City University of London, UK

This book investigates the relationship between Armenians and the Byzantine Empire, arguing that up until the eleventh century migrants of Armenian background were able to fully assimilate into the Empire, recognized fully as Romaioi (Byzantine Romans). It uses the extant sources from a number of traditions and material culture in a chronological approach to reveal issues of migration, religion, ethnic stereotypes, and cultural assimilation, bringing to life the experiences of Medieval Armenians in the Empire, including their ultimate alienation at the onset of the Turkic migration to Anatolia.

Sufis in Medieval Baghdad Agency and the Public Sphere in the Late Abbasid Caliphate

Atta Muhammad, Talim-ul-Islam College, Pakistan

This book examines the political and social activities of Sufis in Baghdad in the period 1000-1258, arguing that Sufis played an important role in creating a public sphere that existed between ordinary subjects and the government. Drawing on Arabic sources and secondary literature, it explores the role of Sufis and their institutions including their ribats or lodge houses, from the use of Sufis as political ambassadors to their role in redistributing charity to the poor, revealing the role of Sufism in structuring a wide range of social and political arrangements in this period.

Forced Migration in Jordan Reception Policies and Settlement Strategies

Edited by Jalal Al Husseini, Institut Français du Proche-Orient (Ifpo), Jordan, Norig Neveu, French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), France & Valentina Napolitano

Jordan sheds important light on key issues around forced migration in the Middle East. This book is the first to study the long-term impact of multiple immigration flows on Jordanian society from 1948 to the present day. Part One investigates the criteria for integration and exclusion imposed by Jordan and international humanitarian organisations on different groups of refugees. Part Two analyses how state policy impacts the solidarity networks between different migrant communities and the different political, social, religious and family networks that are set up in camps and urban settings. Part Three turns to how migrants shape the Jordanian cityscape and geography themselves.

Armenians in the Modern and Early Modern World

Bedross Der Matossian, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA

The Armenian Diaspora and Stateless Power Collective Identity in the Transnational 20th Century

How has the Armenian diaspora formed and maintained a sense of collective identity despite the challenges of the 20th century? Historians, cultural theorists, literary critics, sociologists, political scientists, and anthropologists here probe the history and experience of the Armenian diaspora, examining literary and cultural production as well as case studies from the genocide of 1915 to the present day. The book shows that a diaspora’s statelessness can not only be evidence of its power, but also how this “stateless power” acts as an alternative and complement to the nation-state.

The Armenian Social Democrat Hnchakian Party

Politics, Ideology and Transnational History

Edited by Bedross Der Matossian, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA

Divided into sections which cover the origins, ideology, and regional history of the revolutionary Armenian Social Democrat Hnchakian Party, this book situates the history of the Hnchaks within debates around socialism, populism, and nationalism in the 19th and 20th centuries. The SDHP was not only an Armenian party but had a global Marxist outlook, and scholars in this volume bring to bear expertise in a wide range of histories and languages including Russian, Turkish, Persian and Latin American to trace the emergence and role this influential party played from their split with the Armenian Revolutionary Federation and the events of the Armenian genocide to the formation of the first Armenian Republic and then Soviet Armenia.

Ararat in America

Armenian American Culture and Politics in the Twentieth Century

Benjamin F. Alexander, New York City College of Technology, USA

This book examines the role of community leaders and influencers including clergy, youth organizers, and partisan newspaper editors, in fostering not only a sense of Armenian identity but specific ethnic-partisan leanings within the group’s population. It explores the rivalry between two major Armenian political parties, the Tashnags and the Ramgavars, and shows that, rather than simply acting as an impediment to Armenian unity, it played a role in keeping certain community institutions alive. He analyses the two camps as representing two conflicting visions of how to be an ethnic group, drawing a comparison between the sociology-of-religion models of comfort religion and challenge religion.

Picturing the Ottoman Armenian World

Photography in Erzerum, Harput, Van and Beyond

David Low, AGBU Nubar Library, Paris, France

This book examines photographic activity in three cities on the Armenian plateau: Erzurum, Kharpert and Van. It explores how indigenous photography was rooted in the seismic social, political and cultural shifts that shaped Armenian lives during the Ottoman Empire’s last four decades. Arguing that photographic practice was marked by the era’s central movements, it shows how photography was bound-up in Armenian educational endeavours, mass migration and revolutionary activity. Photography responded to and became the instrument of these phenomena, so much so that they were responsible for the spread of the medium through the Armenian communities of the Ottoman East and the rapid increase in photographic studios.

Depeche Mode's 101

Mary Valle, Freelance Journalist, USA

Depeche Mode’s 101 is, at first glance, a curious thing: a live double-album by a synth band. A recording of its “Concert for the Masses,” 101 marks the moment when doomy, cultish, electronic Depeche Mode, despite low American album sales and a lack of critical acclaim, declared they had arrived and ascended to the rare air of stadium rock. On June 18, 1988, 65,000 screaming, singing Southern Californians flocked to Pasadena’s Rose Bowl to celebrate DM’s coronation. Eight years after its founding in Basildon, Essex, Depeche Mode, rooted in 1970s Krautrock, combined old-fashioned touring, well-crafted songs, and the steadfast support of KROQ to dominate Southern California, the United States, and then the world, kicking open the doors for the likes of Nirvana in the process. 101 is the hidden-in-plain-sight hinge of modern music history.

This is Hardcore is Pulp’s cry for help. The musical equivalent of Reggie Perrin’s Grot shops; the album was designed to fail, yet only succeeded in securing the band’s position as Britain’s-Most-Wanted. This Is Hardcore is a sleazy run through porn and mental demise, that simultaneously chronicles Cocker’s disillusionment with his long-desired wish for fame. Appropriately enough, it should be seen as the final nail in Britpop’s coffin.

Krautrock

Marshall Gu, Writer, Canada

In May 1945, the Allies defeated Nazi Germany, putting an end to the European front of World War II and the Third Reich. In the immediate aftermath, German youth were tasked to create their own culture. Krautrock is this unlikely success story, a unique and experimental sound distinct from American or British rock. Krautrock explores the history and methodology of the genre, charting its influences and innovations, its more mainstream acts (Faust, Kraftwerk, and Can) as well as the less universally known (Harmonia, Popol Vuh, Embryo, and Ash Ra Tempel), how the genre developed in post-war Germany and what it means to today's listeners.

Little Richard's Here's Little Richard

Jordan Bassett, NME, UK

Little Richard spent the 1950s pioneering ideas that are still too challenging for the mainstream. As a Black multimillionaire rock star, he was the most exciting person on the planet between 1955 and 1957, when his debut album was being created. Featuring new interviews with Sir Elton John, Dave Grohl, Joan Jett and Nile Rodgers, this is the first in-depth look at Here’s Little Richard since Richard Penniman’s death in May 2020. This book explores his roots in the American South's surprisingly progressive queer underground as well as early rebel music, like jump blues, which would collide with the then-emerging rock’n’roll.

The Clash's Sandinista!

Micajah Henley, University of Chicago, USA

Sandinista! consists of 36 songs divided on six sides of vinyl, delivering their message through genres ranging from hip hop, reggae, dub, jazz, gospel, calypso, and punk. The result is exceptional piece of socialist art unlike any other, but despite being counted among the greatest albums of all-time, critics and fans have spent over 40 years debating whether the album would be better as a 12-track LP. This book entertains that idea, then considers what is lost or gained in the process. Apart from the other 24 tracks, you lose the story of a band sacrificing their royalties to have a politically subversive triple LP available to their listeners for the price of one to tell them what the news, their schools, and their governments will not.

Ardit Gjebrea’s Projekt Jon

Nicholas Tochka, University of Melbourne, Australia

Projekt Jon—the Ionian Project—announces itself with the frenetic beating of the tupan and the traditional cries of Albania’s highland shepherd. The sprawling collaboration between singer-songwriter Ardit Gjebrea, traditional singer Hysni Zela, and a team of crack studio musicians in Italy, had an outsized ambition: to transcend Albania’s borders, imaginatively crafting in sound a new home in Europe for the postsocialist citizens of the embattled nation-state. But as Gjebrea prepared to take the album on tour, the homeland itself verged on the cusp of complete collapse. The tour became—at least for Gjebrea and other urban intellectuals—a referendum on the future of Albania.

Widely recognized as the most innovative and influential Japanese group since the Second World War, Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) is seeing a revival among music listeners around the world, along with the individual works of its three members. This is the first book in English on Yellow Magic Orchestra, positioning its first album as the nexus of jazz fusion, new wave and hip hop music. Examining the cultural negotiations between African American and Japanese musicians since the 1970s, this book considers the album as a nascent work of Afro-Asian futurism.

Fifty Years of the Concept Album in Popular Music, from The Beatles to Beyoncé

Eric

This is the first book to look at one of popular music’s most celebrated—and misunderstood— achievements, the concept album. The roots of the concept album are nearly as old as the long-playing record itself. Featuring the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, the Who’s Tommy, Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going on, Joni Mitchell’s Blue, and Lauryn Hill’s The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, this book is grouped into five distinctive stages of the concept album’s evolutionary development. 25 albums are studied alongside pivotal cultural touchstones over 50 years.

Bowie, Beckett, and Being

The Art of Alienation

Rodney Sharkey, Weill Cornell Medicine, Qatar

An exploration of the artistic practices of Samuel Beckett and David Bowie illustrates how both artists articulate shared forms of human experience otherwise silenced by normative modes of representation. By documenting their shared passion for literature, art, and music, the book shows how Beckett and Bowie used the arts in all forms (painting, drama, film etc.) to produce extraordinarily empathetic creative outputs. Through the creation of alternative theatrical, musical, and philosophical spaces, their work demonstrates how individuals are disciplined and punished by an implicitly repressive social order, which Beckett and Bowie transgress, opening up new spaces beyond conventional identities.

The Life and Writings of Ralph J. Gleason

Dispatches from the Front

Don Armstrong, Independent Scholar, USA

Ralph J. Gleason worked behind the scenes as well as in print. From John Coltrane and Dizzy Gillespie to Bob Dylan and the Fillmore’s Bill Graham, Gleason acted as their confidant and advisor. This book tells the story of Ralph J. Gleason, the trailblazing music writer who created the first popular music newspaper column, and cofounded Rolling Stone magazine. Gleason covered the remarkable succession of musicians who innovated popular music from the 1930s to the 1970s. It draws on never-before-published letters, anecdotes, family accounts and exclusive interviews to reveal one of the 20th century’s most fascinating individuals; one who not only reported on but shaped the direction of popular music.

Edited by Olivier Julien, Universite ParisSorbonne, France & Olivier Bourderionnet, University of New Orleans, USA

Bringing together a large selection of established scholars from across the world Serge Gainsbourg: An International Perspective emphasizes his unique position in French popular culture. The 27 chapters address issues such as his musical influences and collaborations, esthetics and form, his experimentations with disciplines other than music (mainly film and literature) and his multifaceted identity, not to mention the relationship between highbrow and lowbrow culture in the French context.The interdisciplinary approach of the volume engages in a dialogue between musicology, film and media studies, literature, cultural studies, gender studies, and more, revealing the broad scope of Gainsbourg’s impact in and outside of France, from the early 1960s through today.

Lit-Rock Literary Capital in Popular Music

Edited by Ryan Hibbett, Northern Illinois University, USA

Just as soon as it had got rolling, rock music had a problem: it wanted to be art. A mere four years separate the Beatles as mere kiddy culture from the artful geniuses of Sergeant Pepper’s, meaning the very same band who represents the mass-consumed, “mindless” music of adolescents simultaneously enjoys status as among the best that Western culture has to offer. The chapters in this book track the uses of literature, specifically, in the relationship between high and low art, helping to showcase collectively its fundamental role in the emergence of the “pop omnivore.”

Troubling Inheritances Memory, Music, and Aging

Edited by Sara Cohen, University of Liverpool, UK, Line Grenier, Université de Montréal, Canada & Ros Jennings, University of Gloucestershire, UK

This book provides an interdisciplinary focus on music, memory, and ageing by examining how they intersect outside of a formal therapeutic context or framework and by offering a counter-narrative to age as decline. Using the notion of inheritance to trouble its core themes, it examines different ways in which the concept of inheritance is understood but also how it commonly refers to the practice of passing on, and the connections this establishes across time and space.

Traveling Music Videos

Edited by Tomáš Jirsa, Palacký University, Czechia & Mathias Bonde Korsgaard, Aarhus University, Denmark

Traveling Music Videos offers a new interdisciplinary perspective on how contemporary music videos travel across, shape, and transform various media, online platforms, art institutions, and cultural industries. With the onset of digital technologies and the proliferation of global video-sharing websites at the beginning of the 21st century, music video migrated from TV screens to turn instead to the internet, art galleries, concert stages, and social media. As a result, its aesthetics, technological groundings, and politics have been radically transformed.

Practical Musicology

Simon Zagorski-Thomas, University of West London, UK

Practical Musicology is the—rapidly expanding— study of how music is made. The book explores various forms of practice, from performance and composition to listening and dancing, from historically informed performances of Bach in the USA to Indonesian Dubstep, from Irish traditional music played by French musicians from Toulouse to K-Pop. Drawing on neuroscience, cognitive psychology, ecological approaches in anthropology, and the social construction of technology and creativity, Zagorski-Thomas investigates how practice is already being studied and suggests a principle for how it might continue to develop, asserting that musicking cannot be treated as a culturally or ideologically neutral phenomenon.

Performing Folk Songs Affect, Landscape and Repertoire

Elizabeth Bennett, University of Essex, UK

Performing Folk Songs is the first full-length volume to explore folk singing from the perspective of performance studies. Using archival sources, family repertoire, and recorded performances of interviewees, this book argues that archives and repertoires are produced in sensory environments and through embodied encounters. Autoethnography, sensory ethnography, life-writing and landscape writing are used to explore the affective and emotional aspects of learning songs ‘by heart.' Drawing on her experience as a folk singer, Bennett contributes to discourse on British folk traditions in the 21st century and brings performance scholarship to the contemporary folk song resurgence.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Popular Music, Space and Place

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Music and Art

Edited

This collection brings together a number of key scholars in order to introduce readers to concepts and theories used to explore the relationships between place and music. An interdisciplinary volume, drawing from sociology, geography, ethnomusicology, media, cultural, and communication studies, this book covers a wide-range of topics germane to the production and consumption of place in popular music. Through considerations of changes in technology and the mediascape that have shaped the experience of popular music (vinyl, iPods, social media), the role of social difference and how it shapes sociomusical encounters (queer spaces, gendered and racialised spaces), as well as the construction and representations of place (musical tourism, city branding, urban mythologies), this is an up-tothe-moment overview of central discussions about place and music.

A Poetic Philosophy of Language

Nietzsche and Wittgenstein’s

Expressivism

Philip Mills, University of Lausanne, Switzerland

Connecting poetry and the philosophy of language, Philip Mills bridges the continental and analytical divide by bringing together the writings of Nietzsche and Wittgenstein. Through an expressivist philosophy of poetry, he argues that we can understand some of the core questions in the philosophy of language. By tracing the expressivist tradition of the philosophy of language, this study locates its roots in German Romanticism right through to the work of contemporary expressivists such as Huw Price and Robert Brandom. Mills’ study operates at the crossroads between philosophy of art and language, proposing a new philosophy of poetry with wide-ranging potentialities.

Militant Aesthetics

Art Activism in the 21st Century

Martin Lang, University of Lincoln, UK

Bringing together political and aesthetic theory, Martin Lang provides a comprehensive examination of militant art. Through first-hand interviews and experiences, this book sheds light on numerous international case studies, from Grupo Etcétera who are prepared to risk arrest for their art to others like Thomas Bresolin, who utilises military uniforms in violent performances that connect with public anger. Combining these examples with the thought of Badiou, Žižek, Rancière and Mouffe, as well as up-to-date scholarship from Bishop, Léger and others, Lang investigates the instances, attributes and rules of militant art, to propose a new overall theory of 21st-century militant aesthetics.

The Problem of Free Will and Naturalism Paradoxes and Kantian Solutions

Christian Onof, Birkbeck College, UK

Christian Onof reviews contemporary approaches surrounding free will and argues that their main shortcomings are ultimately due to paradoxical requirements on free will imposed by the naturalistic framework. Onof singles out Kant’s critical solution as one that stands out among historical approaches and offers a coherent picture of free will. Drawing on unpublished notes and key publications of Kant's critical period, Onof addreses several debates which loom large in contemporary Kant literature. His exegetical work puts Kant’s theory into conversation with contemporary analytic theories of free will and leads to defining a Kantian position that overcomes the issues plaguing existing approaches to the problem of free will.

Making Meaning in Popular Song

Philosophical Essays

Theodore Gracyk, Minnesota State University Moorhead, USA

Arguing against prevailing theories of meaning in popular music studies that ignore the power of the performance, Theodore Gracyk argues for the contextual relevance of the performer. Extending his doctrine of meaning as use, Gracyk explains how both the performance persona and the personal life of a song’s performer can contribute to (or undercut) ethical and political aspects of a performance or recording. Informed by a mix of philosophy of art and philosophy of language, Gracyk's entertaining study of popular music constructs the first theory for philosophy of meaning for songs.

Negative Hermeneutics and the Question of Practice

Nicholas Davey, University of Dundee, UK

How do words and images function hermeneutically? How does hermeneutic practice work? Answering these questions and more, Nicholas Davey develops the hermeneutical foundations of creative practice. With Gadamer’s language ontology as his cue, he takes Gadamerian thinking beyond Gadamer himself, investigating in particular the productive value of negativity that is central to hermeneutics and to wider spheres of creative learning. In doing so, this pioneering volume not only uncovers the significance of philosophical hermeneutics for the arts and the humanities, but defends the humanities as a whole from the current scepticism inspired by deconstruction and post-structuralism.

Philosophy of the Medium The Age of McLuhan in Question

John Lechte, Macquarie University, Sydney

Bold and expansive, this book argues that we have for too long focused on the technical specificities of media, when we should have been focusing on what it is that mediums do, that is, on their ‘content’ rather than their formal and technical qualities. It offers a deeper understanding of what we mean by the term ‘media’: it is that which comes ‘between’ and which facilitates the transmission of content, essentially a creator of possibilities, yet never present as such in the light of its success as a vehicle for meaning.

Ideology and Interpellation

Anti-Humanism to Non-Philosophy

Jonathan Fardy, Idaho State University, USA

Bringing Althusser into dialogue with Laruelle, Rancière, and Baudrillard, Jonathan Fardy examines the ground-breaking Althusserian theory of ideological interpellation through three of its key critics. From Laruelle’s dismissal of Althusser’s presumption that “standard philosophy” is guarded against the lures of ideology to Rancière’s contention that employers’ failure to “interpellate” or recruit workers was due to their failure to understand the workers’ dreams of unwaged aesthetic and philosophical labour, this book reveals the continuing relevance of post-Althusserian Marxist thought. Importantly, it also demonstrates the need today for a rigorous theory of ideology, traces of which can be found in Althusser’s legacy.

Philosophy of the Short Term

Jay Lampert, Duquesne University, USA

Jay Lampert explores the question of time in depth using the resources of short (as well as long) term processes in order to develop best temporal practices in ethical, aesthetic, epistemological, and metaphysical activities, both theoretical and practical. The methodology develops ideas based on the history of philosophy (from Plato to Hegel to Husserl to Deleuze), interdisciplinary studies (from cognitive science to poetics), and practical spheres where short term practices have been studied extensively. Philosophy of the Short Term is the first book to deal systematically with the concept of the short term.

The Phenomenology of Questioning

Husserl, Heidegger and Patocka

Joel Hubick, KU Leuven, Belgium

This book provides a comprehensive examination of the central role that questioning plays in phenomenology. Joel Hubick not only offers a phenomenological analysis of the activity of asking questions, but further traces the development of this form of questioning in the early stages of the phenomenology movement, from Husserl to Heidegger and Patocka. In doing so, this volume affords a crucial insight into the history of phenomenological reasoning, as well as a reminder to today’s phenomenologists to continue asking questions.

The Fascism of Ambiguity A Conceptual Essay

Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback, Södertörn University, Sweden

Translated by Rodrigo Maltez Novaes

This book contributes to the work of elucidating the new forms of fascism and authoritarianism that arise today in intimate relation with new mediatic and information technologies. It presents elements of the connection between capitalism and fascism, and makes clear how fascism today uses the ambiguity of senses and meanings as its most efficient way of infiltrating our reality and thereby becoming unequivocal.

Beyond Nihilism

The Turn in Heidegger’s Thought from Nietzsche to Hölderlin

Dominic Kelly, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK

Dominic Kelly investigates the ‘turn’ in Heidegger’s thought and shows how in the 1930s Heidegger began to think in a way that was not entirely philosophical. Kelly shows how this shift occurred in Heidegger’s notion of history. This is revealed by his engagement with Friedrich Nietzsche, who he analysed purely philosophically, and the poet, Friedrich Hölderlin, whose writing allowed him to think outside of a solely metaphysical framework and move beyond nihilism. By exploring the intellectual vicissitudes of this concept, Kelly has illustrated the trajectory of one of the most important debates in 20th-century continental philosophy.

Structure Phenomenology

Preconscious Formation in the Epistemic Disclosure of Reality

This open access book is the first English translation of Herbert Witzenmann’s Strukturphänomenologie, which introduces a fresh approach to the nexus of consciousness and reality. Unlike many philosophers advocating pre-reflective consciousness, Witzenmann contends that it is not neural processes that produce consciousness, but rather one’s own preconscious rootedness in reality which can be made conscious. With a comprehensive introduction, this translation also explores Witzenmann’s central sources of inspiration, Rudolf Steiner and Goethe, and situates his theories within the development of phenomenology.

Lyotard and Critical Practice

Edited by Kiff Bamford, Leeds Beckett University, UK & Margret Grebowicz, University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland

Jean-François Lyotard helps us to think against the pervasive dismissal of creative activity, not by defending the honor of the humanities, but by inviting critical practices which aggravate this irritation. Critical practices trouble what counts as critique, embrace incertitude, and listen for silenced voices.

Accompanied by four original writings by Lyotard, published here in English for the first time, 12 chapters by artists and researchers take up Lyotard's invitation and begin to develop the idea of critical practice in the contemporary context.

Daniel O'Shiel provides the first comprehensive phenomenology of virtual technology in order to show how the previously well-established experiential lines and structures between three basic categories of phenomenal experience – our everyday perceptions of reality; our everyday fantasies of irreality; and our everyday engagements with external images, not least digital ones – are becoming blurred, inverted or are even collapsing in a new era where a specific type of virtuality is coming to the fore. O’Shiel examines in depth just what this means for the phenomenology behind it, as well as the concrete practical consequences going forward.

The Philosophy of Mario Perniola From Aesthetics to Dandyism

Enea Bianchi, University of Galway, Ireland

In the first introduction to the pioneering philosophy of Mario Perniola, Enea Bianchi provides a comprehensive examination of Perniola’s entire oeuvre, whilst also pushing his thought into new directions by investigating the connection between his aesthetics and the philosophical underpinnings of dandyism. Highlighting numerous notions pivotal to understanding Perniola’s thought, including the “sex appeal of the inorganic”, the “enigma” and the “artistic shadow”, this book combines these with three exemplar dandies –George Brummell, Charles Baudelaire and Oscar Wilde – to uncover the close relationship between their principles and aesthetics, and their shared, and timely, opposition to the status quo.

Joy and Laughter in Nietzsche’s Philosophy

Alternative Liberatory Politics

Edited by Paul E. Kirkland, Carthage College, USA & Michael J. McNeal, University of Denver, USA

Analyzing the importance of joy, laughter, and cheerfulness in Nietzsche’s thought, this volume addresses an underexamined topic in the secondary literature. Among other topics, scholars assess the Übermensch and shared joy, learning to laugh at oneself, Schopenhauer’s jokes, Pascal’s cheerfulness, and the Dada movement’s subversively playful aesthetic. By contemplating Nietzsche’s emphasis on joy and laughter, the volume reveals a thinker who, far from being a caricature of hopeless nihilism, is in fact the hitherto unrecognised champion of an alternative liberatory politics.

Deleuze, Guattari and the Machine in Early Christianity Schizoanalysis, Affect and Multiplicity

Bradley H. McLean, University of Toronto, Canada

Expanding the impact of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s philosophy on Christian theology, this original study makes the case for understanding early Christianity through key Deleuzioguattarian ideas about machines and multiplicity, using the theoretical tool of schizoanalysis to do so. Situating the historical emergence of early Christianity as constrained by traditional assumptions that deny the genesis, change and transformation that characterises early Christianity, Bradley McLean argues that machines are both an unnoticed dimension of early Christianity, as well as a major analytical tool for the discipline.

Edited by Kathryn Lawson, University in Kingston, Canada & Joshua Livingstone, Queen’s University in Kingston, Canada

Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil were two of the most compelling political thinkers of the 20th century, who, despite bearing similar lifeexperiences, developed radically unique political philosophies. The writings here respect the profound differences between Arendt and Weil whilst pulling out the shared preoccupations of power, violence, freedom, resistance, responsibility, attention, aesthetics, and vulnerability. Without shying away from exploring the more difficult concepts in these philosophers' works, Hannah Arendt and Simone Weil also aims to pull out the relevance of their writings for contemporary issues.

The Metaphysics of Contingency

A Theory of Objects’ Abilities and Dispositions

Ferenc Huoranszki, Central European University (Vienna Campus), Austria

Providing a novel account of dispositions, abilities and their capacity to explain modality, Ferenc Huoranszki develops a theory of contingent possibilities grounded in a clear distinction between abilities and dispositions as real, first-order modal properties of objects. By linking such modal properties to counterfactual conditionals, Huoranszki argues we can distinguish between variably generic or specific abilities and identify more or less abstract possibilities in a world. In doing so, he furthers our understanding of how we reason with possibilities both in ordinary and theoretical contexts.

Kant’s Rational Religion and the Radical Enlightenment From Spinoza to Contemporary Debates

Anna Tomaszewska, Jagiellonian University, Poland While Kant’s attempts to reconcile faith with reason have positioned him as a moderate Enlightenment thinker in predominating scholarship, Anna Tomaszewska sheds light on the affinities of his theology with the radical Enlightenment. She shows how Kant’s defence of religion consists of rationalizing its core tenets and establishing morality as the essence of religious faith. Revealing the significance of Kant’s theology for contemporary political philosophy, this book furthers the understanding of how the shift towards a secular outlook in Western culture was shaped by attempts to rationalize rather than uproot Christianity.

Bernard Stiegler Memories of the Future

Honouring the memory of the late Bernard Stiegler, this edited collection presents a broad spectrum of contributions that provide a complex and coherently articulated image of Bernard Stiegler's thought which reached beyond the boundaries of academic, artistic and experimental techno-scientific enclaves where he had been originally received.

Stiegler was a contemporary philosopher whose work reflected multiple different facets including theorization, social diagnosis, planning, practical and territorial experimentation, politics, as well as aesthetics. The essays here provide a detailed examination of Stiegler’s remarks on spirit, philosophy and technicity, whilst simultaneously offering a comprehensive account of its unifying themes.

Beyond Language

Emanuele Severino

Translated by Damiano Sacco, ICI Berlin Institute for Cultural Inquiry, Germany

Beyond Language (Oltre il Linguaggio) is one of Italian philosopher Emmanuele Severino’s major works, wrestling with whether it’s possible to think meaningfully outside of the restrictions of language. Increasingly recognised as a truly foundational thinker in the formation of contemporary theory, Severino’s ideas around selfexpression, forms of communication and the limitations of language are to the fore in this book. Beyond Language specifically opens the door to the themes that Severino developed in his later works, including the concrete meaning of self-being and the decline of language. This first English translation of a key work in the history of continental philosophy is crucial reading for those engaged with contemporary theory.

The Human Mind through the Lens of Language

Generative Explorations

Nirmalangshu Mukherji, Indian Council of Philosophical Research, India

Most living forms in nature display various cognitive abilities in their behaviour. However, except for humans, no other animal builds fires and wheels, navigates with maps and tells stories to other conspecifics. This book introduces, defends and develops a novel philosophical approach to the study of the generative mind. Nirmalangshu Mukherji argues for a single, speciesspecific generative principle that accounts for the human ability to combine symbolic forms without bound in each domain that falls under the generative mind.

The Developmental Psychology of Personal Identity

A Philosophical Perspective

Massimo Marraffa and Cristina Meini re-connect the psychology of identity with its philosophical roots in this study. They trace the contemporary problem of the self to John Locke and William James’ foundational theories on personal identity. By integrating the philosophy of identity with empirical and neuropsychological research, Marraffa and Meini provide an original synthesis of multidisciplinary conceptions of the self. The combination of philosophy and neuropsychology makes an important contribution to the multiple disciplines that are concerned with personal identity. It provokes new routes to understanding identity and self, personality, and autobiographical memory.

The Notions of George Berkeley Self, Substance, Unity and Power

James Hill, Charles University, Prague

In a systematic interpretation and positive reconstruction of George Berkeley’s doctrine of notions, James Hill considers his understanding of the inner sphere and self-awareness, and invites us to treat Berkeley’s philosophy of mind as distinct from the empiricist tradition. Weaving together Berkeley’s conception of the intellect, conceptual thought, mathematics, ethics and theology, this volume examines the development of Berkeley’s philosophy from the early notebooks to the late Siris. This cutting edge reflection on the doctrine of notions is essential reading for students and scholars specialising in Berkeley as well as early modern accounts of the self, perception and God.

Anthropomorphism in Christian Theology

The Apophatics of the Sensible

William C. Hackett, Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology, USA

Through this theological history, Hackett addresses the fear of anthropomorphism that prompted early philosophers and theologians to adopt abstract understandings of God. Hackett charts its wide-ranging importance to theology through figures including Balthasar, Bultmann, Dionysius the Areopagite, and Cyril of Alexandria. By exploring the turn away from embodied views of God in Scripture, this book focuses on anthropomorphic views of God in symbols, images, and narratives. Emphasising these forms promotes an intellectual vision of Christianity that challenges theoretical and conceptual abstraction.

Philosophers on God

Talking about Existence

Edited by Jack Symes, Durham University, UK

Philosophers on God examines one of the most discussed topics in philosophy through conversations with a dozen of world leading philosophers of religion. Each chapter centres around a thinker’s explanation and defence of their position, accompanied by overviews of why they matter and what they believe. Allowed to defend their response to whether or not God exists, philosophers test and challenge their rivals. Their debates and arguments bring theories and arguments to life, offering compelling insights into major positions about atheism, evil, suffering, secularism, and theism.

The Poetics of the Sensible

Stanislas Breton

Translated by Sarah Horton, Youngstown State University, USA

In the first English language translation of this classic text within French Catholic thought, Poetics of the Sensible brings together insights from Neoplatonism and phenomenology. Taking a stance within the generative conception of human language, Stanislas Breton expands the sense of the “poetic” to include the body and its senses phenomenologically intertwined with the world. Illuminating Breton’s poetic and allusive discourse, this translation showcases his unique voice in French philosophy, phenomenology and the philosophy of religion.

Ole Jakob Løland, University of South-Eastern Norway, Norway

Confronting the readings of Freud, Nietzsche and Spinoza with insights not only from the more recent philosophical readings of the letters of Paul but also from historical-critical scholarship on the Bible, this book lifts the veil over a new picture of the apostle as a figure with potential value for non-Christians and atheists.

An Apostle for Atheists leaves us with ideas that compel us to reconsider Paul’s negative reputation for secular modernity and appreciate him as a figure of a radically new politics as well as a renewed psychoanalysis.

Critical Theory and the Critique of Society

Chris O’Kane, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, USA & Werner Bonefeld, University of York, UK

The Adventures of the Commodity For a Critique of Value

Anselm Jappe, Fine Arts Academy, Italy

Jappe explores critical conceptions of a capitalist society that is ordered entirely around the exigencies of the commodity, money and labour.

A distinctive introduction to critiques of capitalism and commodity society, this book illuminates the difficult concept of 'abstract' labour. Merging this with the social critique known as the “critique of value”, first developed by Robert Kurz and the German journal, Krisis, in the 1990s, the book highlights in particular a central, and often contested, aspect of this critique: the claim that capitalism has entered into a crisis that is not cyclical, but terminal.

Hormonal Theory A Rebellious Glossary

From angiotensin to cortisol, testosterone to xenoestrogens, and dopamine to endocrine disruptors, hormones are everywhere. These chemical entities are foundational to biological life and shape social, cultural, and political forces, while simultaneously being shaped by them. Hormones are increasingly central not only to medical and other body-shaping practices and contemporary science, but also environmentally-oriented conversations. Throughout Hormonal Theory, authors trace how biomedical, social, political, and experiential forces entangle to produce hormones as we know them today. It illuminates how hormones emerge and exist as complex entities that permeate every sphere of our lives.

Why Human Nature Matters Between Biology and Politics

Matteo

Does human nature constrain social and political change? Or do social and political changes transform human nature? Why Human Nature Matters argues that instead of being mutually exclusive, the answer to both questions is yes! This philosophical account of human nature explores the relation between biology and politic, explaining clearly what is at stake in issues like climate change and the sociopolitical consequences of the technological revolution. Appeals to human nature are often used in support of a politics of exclusion. By demolishing these existential biases and building on advancements in biological theory, this book explores the philosophical significance of those developments and offers new conceptual tools for linking a biological understanding of humanity to a politics of inclusion and freedom.

Negative Dialectics and the Critique of Political Economy

Edited by Werner Bonefeld, University of York, UK & Chris O’Kane, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, USA

While Adorno has tended to be read as a critic of the administered world and the consumer industry rather than a Marxist, Adorno and Marx establishes Adorno’s negative dialectics as fundamental for understanding Marx’s critique of political economy. It highlights the intersection between Adorno’s critical theory and Marx’s critique of political economy that produces a critical theory moving beyond Marxian economics and Adornoian social theory.

Walter Benjamin and the Critique of Political Economy A New Historical Materialism

Duy Lap Nguyen, University of Houston, USA

Exploring the connections between Walter Benjamin’s philosophy of history and a Marxian critique of political economy, Duy Lap Nguyen analyses Benjamin’s early writings and their development into a specific theory of historical materialism. Benjamin’s own theory of revolution and redemption in capitalist society is understood in relation to the materialist critique of progress he advanced. Essential to this critique is the potential to overturn the political and economic catastrophes which historically characterise capitalism and enable fascism to thrive. Nguyen combines this critique with other aspects of Benjamin's historical materialism to demonstrate his unique contribution to Western Marxism.

Freedom A Disease Without Cure

Slavoj Žižek, Birkbeck Institute for Humanities, University of London, UK

Freedom is a concept that appears deceptively simple but the moment we try to define it, we encounter contradictions. In this new philosophical exploration, Slavoj Žižek draws on philosophers including Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Edith Wharton, and counters the idea of libertarian individualism, to argue that the experience of true, radical freedom is transient and fragile. Tracing its connection to a variety of issues, including environmental breakdown, capitalism, and war, he shows through this entertaining and illuminating journey how a deeper understanding of freedom can offer hope in dark times.

How We Became Post-Liberal The Rise and Fall of Toleration

Russell Blackford, University of Newcastle, Australia

Liberalism is in trouble. As a set of ideas, it has lost much of its historical authority in guiding public policy and personal behaviour. In this post-liberal climate, Russell Blackford asks whether liberalism is truly over and, if not, if it's worth saving.

The political and philosophical story of liberalism culminates in the recent development – over the past 30 to 50 years – of post-liberal ideologies in the West. At each stage, he raises arguments for and against liberal principles, identifying why no argument to date has been totally successful in convincing opponents.

What is good technology? Is ‘good’ technology even possible? And how can feminism help us work towards it? The Good Robot addresses these crucial questions through the voices of leading feminist thinkers, activists and technologists. Each thinker provides a snapshot of key challenges, questions and provocations in the field of feminism and technology. This book explores both the radical possibilities of technology to disrupt practices of patriarchy, colonialism, racism and beyond but also provides a significant critique of how we can contain the ethical possibilities of entities we cannot predict.

Surplus-Enjoyment A Guide For The Non-Perplexed Slavoj Žižek, Birkbeck Institute for Humanities, University of London, UK

Contemporary life is defined by excess. We need a surplus to what we need to be able to truly enjoy what we have. Žižek’s guide to surplus (and why it’s enjoyable) argues that what is surplus to our needs is by its very nature unsubstantial and unnecessary. But, perversely, without this surplus, we wouldn’t be able to enjoy what is substantial and necessary. Engaging with everything from The Joker to pop songs, Aquinas and the history of pandemics, Žižek claims that recognising our society of enjoyment for what it is can provide an explanation for the political impasses of today.

On Bernard Stiegler Philosopher of Friendship

Edited by Jean-Luc Nancy

Bernard Stiegler invites us to question the relationship between a thinker's life and their thought. For Stiegler, they were inextricable. His life was one focused on friendship, but not friendships at a purely social level but ones that produced philosophy, politics, and existential truths. Bringing together scholars who knew Stiegler, including Shaj Mohan, Achille Mbembe, Divya Dwivedi, and Emily Apter, this volume provides an original, and personal, insight into his life and philosophy. Each piece gives a sense of the wide range of Stiegler’s work and how it affected the praxis of the philosopher in different parts of the world.

The Politics of Structural Injustice

Maeve McKeown, University of Cambridge, UK Does buying clothes from a high street shop make me morally responsible for sweatshop labour? Can anyone bear responsibility for a “structural” injustice?

McKeown argues that there are moral agents, more responsible than others, for global structural injustice and recognising this is crucial to powerful institutions and individuals taking on the responsibility to change things for the better.

McKeown uses case studies from around the world, including the Nike Corporation and Facebook, and explores world events such as the COVID-19 crisis and the toppling of slave trader statues as moments when the power and ubiquity of structural injustice is revealed.

A Philosophical History of Police Power

Melayna Kay Lamb, University of Sussex, UK

This book demonstrates the manner in which police power exists in a complex relationship with sovereignty and law, in a form which is not reducible to implementation. It argues for the centrality of order in any consideration of police and challenging a common narrative whereby a dynamic, interventionist sovereign power that follows from a belief of order as ‘artificial’ is replaced by a liberal, non-interventionist sovereign power that proceeds from a ‘natural’ order. Moving through thinkers such as Hobbes, Hegel and Adam Smith the book shows the an-archic character of police power.

Machiavelli and the Problems of Military Force A War of One’s Own

Sean Erwin, Barry University, USA

This book sheds light on Machiavelli’s critiques of military force and provides an important reinterpretation of his military theory. Sean Erwin argues that the distinction between arma propriis and arma alienis poses a central problem to Machiavelli’s case for why modern political institutions offer modes of political existence that ancient ones did not. Starting from the influence of Lucretius and Aelianus Tacticus on the Dell'arte della guerra, he examines Machiavelli’s criticism of mercenary, auxiliary, and mixed forces.

Filmmaker of Existential Choices

Susan Rubin Suleiman

István Szabó is one of the few Hungarian filmmakers to have earned a major international reputation over the past half century. István Szabó explores the most urgent philosophical question posed by his films: how do individuals attempt, and often fail, to create a viable self and a life in extreme historical situations over which they have no control? This urgent central question juxtaposes the individual and the state, public and private lives, the communal and the political, and what these ideas mean to the lived reality of those faced with emigration, assimilation, and the machinations of state authority.

Ramin Jahanbegloo develops the concept of compassion as a practical and ethical response to the problems of today’s world. Examining the power of compassion through the lens of multiple world religions, he explores ahimsa in Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism and neighbourly love in Christianity, before synthesizing the two concepts in the Gandhian theory of non-violence and its impact on Muslim and Christian thinkers such as Abdul Ghaffar Khan and Martin Luther King, Jr. Jahanbegloo's comparative approach enriches our understanding of nonviolence as a universal philosophy and practice for the 21st century.

Anarchism After Deleuze and Guattari

Fabulating Futures

Chantelle Gray, North-West University, South Africa

By bringing together the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari with the theory and practices of anarchism, Chantelle Gray argues that whilst we cannot — and should not — attempt to call them anarchists, their work resonates with core anarchist principles such as prefiguration, careful experimentation and emergent strategies aimed at creating a feeling that life is worth living. This involves paying attention to both joyous affects and sad passions, which necessitates the affirmation of all of chance and, from that, fabulating new modes of existence.

PHILOSOPHY –Social & Political Philosophy

In Dialogue with Michèle Le Doeuff

Philosophies, Encounters and Friendship

Far from being a discipline about the leader and the disciple and a hierarchy of knowledge, Le Dœuff proposes a philosophy of dialogue and friendship. The conversations in this book explore how this philosophy can be enacted and shows how openness and generosity can be the starting point of truly rigorous thinking.

Introduced and curated by the late philosopher, Pamela Sue Anderson, In Dialogue with Michèle Le Dœuff explores themes like contemporary feminism, joy in philosophy, memory, the significance of friendship to thinking and a key Le Dœuffian concept, the imaginary.

Consciousness Mattering

A Buddhist Synthesis

Peter D. Hershock, East-West Center, USA

In this volume, Peter D. Hershock presents a contemporary Buddhist theory in which brains, bodies, environments, and cultures are relational infrastructures for human consciousness. Drawing on insights from meditation, neuroscience, physics, and evolutionary theory, he demonstrates that human consciousness is not something that occurs only in our heads. Shedding new light on the co-emergence of subjective awareness and culture, the possibilities for machine consciousness, the risks of algorithmic consciousness hacking, and the potential of intentionally altered states of consciousness, Hershock advances our understanding of consciousness to invite us to consider how freely, wisely, and compassionately consciousness matters.

The Agency and Identity of an Icon Joy James, Williams College, USA

Excavating layers of networks, activists and academics across the ideological spectrum, Joy James studies the paradigms and platforms that leveraged Angela Davis into recognition as an activist and radical intellectual. Beginning in Alabama in 1944 with Davis’s birthplace and ending in California in 1970 with a surrogate political family, James investigates context in order to better understand the agency and identity of Davis. Her chronology marks key events relevant to Davis, Black communities, and the US, all playing a part in Davis's rise in stature from UC graduate student to the UC Presidential chair some three decades later.

Henry E. Hale, George Washington University, USA, Juliet Johnson, McGill University, Canada & Tomila Lankina, London School of Economics, UK

The 10th edition of this go-to-text offers critical discussion of contemporary Russian politics and its fundamental principles. Taking a bottom-up approach, the book analyses the political system in which Putin’s influence can be understood and covers frequently overlooked topics like informal economy, climate change, and gender.

Mass Atrocities and the Police

A New History of Ethnic Cleansing in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Christian Axboe Nielsen, Aarhus University, Denmark

Between April 1992 and December 1995, more than 100,000 people were killed in the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

These include archival sources, academic research and practical experience as a widely cited expert witness in the most notorious of the war crimes tribunals. His innovative new history sheds light on wider issues regarding the dissolution of Yugoslavia, the Balkan Wars and the state of the region today.

Why We Need Sex Crime Laws Based on Facts, Not Fear

In this timely and extensively researched book, sociologist Emily Horowitz shows how current sexoffense policies in the United States create new forms of harm and prevent those who have caused harm from the process of constructive repentance or contributing to society after punishment. Horowitz also illustrates the failure of criminal justice responses to social problems. Sharing detailed narratives from the experiences of those on registries and their loved ones, Horowitz reveals the social impact and cycle of violence that results from dehumanizing and banishing those who have already been held accountable.

National Affects

The Everyday Atmospheres of Being Political

Angharad Closs Stephens, Swansea University, UK

What difference does it make to address national identity as an affective force? In a timely intervention, this book addresses the affective and atmospheric dimensions of citizenship to open new angles in the study of nationalism and global politics. Exploring sites that range from the 2012 London Olympic Games to the European refugee crisis and ‘Brexit’, asking how the nation is felt in everyday life and differently experienced, National Affects moves between theory and narrative to establish a new tone of critical enquiry. Whilst informed by critical interrogations of the geographies of “us” and “them”, the book argues that these ideas are not as stable as they are made to seem.

Black Women at Work On Refusal and Recovery

Wendi S. Williams

Details, and offers vignettes to illustrate, how patriarchy and white supremacy have restricted Black women at work, both historically and currently. Wendi S. Williams makes the direct connection between Black women’s contemporary experiences and the long legacy of Black labor exploitation. Through the interweaving of personal narratives and social media reflections, Williams crafts a larger narrative of recovery and refusal that articulates a liberatory path toward recovery and reclamation through refusal—a path that will ultimately help to bring us all closer to freedom.

What You Need to Know about Personality Disorders

Katherine M. Helm, Lewis University, USA & Kimberly S. Duris, Lewis University, USA

Having a personality disorder is different than having personality quirks. Personality quirks or eccentricities are considered normal; however, when certain dominant personality traits interfere with healthy psychological functioning, a personality disorder might be the cause.

Included here is a complete overview of the 10 currently recognized personality disorders, as well as the signs and symptoms that may lead to a diagnosis. Using the most recent scholarship and case studies, this volume brings clarity to the issue of personality disorders, covering topics from the history of assessing personality disorders to the ways in which a personality disorder may affect the family and friends of the patient.

Shame, Modesty, and Honor in Islam

Edited by Ayang Utriza Yakin, UCLouvain, Belgium, Adis Duderija, Griffith University, Australia & An Van Raemdonck, Ghent University, Belgium

The book examines various conceptions of hayâ, or feelings of shame, modesty and honor in Islam, and the practices associated with this concept in both Muslim majority and minority contexts. It argues that hayâ’ or modesty is the result of social constructions in which ideas, objects and practices interact in social and cultural contexts. It then demonstrates how this concept has undergone profound transformations temporally and spatially.

Interrogating Muslims

The Liberal-Secular Matrix of Integration

Schirin Amir-Moazami, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany

An interrogation of the patterns and discursive structures that have generated the seeming urgency of Muslims’ integration. Focusing on Germany, the book problematizes the grounds on which politics of integration are justified and reasoned upon, and thereby investigates divergent operations of power vis-à-vis Muslims and Islam in a formally liberal-secular society. Through an analysis of three kinds of integration practices, the book argues that the paradigm of integration navigates between universalist claims and particularistic— racial and religious—reenactments of a secular nation-state framework at moments in which this very framework is crumbling.

Considering the striking similarities between the treatment of the dead and conceptions of the netherworld in ancient Egypt and China, how can these traditions be compared?

In this book, Mu-chou Poo considers this question, and provides a new perspective on archaeological materials, including tomb structures and funerary texts, by addressing them in the context of universal human problems such as death, the future of the dead, and the search for happiness in life.

Weird Confucius

Unorthodox Representations of Confucius in History

Zhao Lu, New York University Shanghai, China

Zhao Lu analyses the eclectic, fictitious representations of Confucius that have been widely celebrated by communities of people throughout history. He considers depictions of Confucius as prophet, a fortune-teller, a powerful demon hunter, a shrewd villain of 19th-Century American newspapers, and as an embodiment of feudal evils in the Cultural Revolution. In doing so, Lu shows that these representations reflect the specific anxieties of these communities.

The Study of Greek and Roman Religions

Insularity and Assimilation

Nickolas P. Roubekas, University of Vienna, Austria

This book argues that there is a disciplinary gap between the study of Greek and Roman religions and the study of “religion” as a category—a gap that has often resulted in contradictory conclusions regarding Graeco-Roman religion. This book provides a theoretical approach to this historical period, raising the issue of the relationship between “theory of religion” and “history of religion”, and explores how history influences theory. It also presents an in-depth critique of some crucial problems that have been central to the discussions of scholars who work on Graeco-Roman antiquity, and offers solutions that may lead to a more scientific study of Graeco-Roman religions.

Prescription for Inequality Exploring the Social Determinants of Health of At-Risk Groups

Jillian M. Duquaine-Watson, Colby College, USA

This book explores how social determinants of health (SDH) impact the health of a variety of marginalized demographic groups in the United States. Chapters focus on the 13 groups that research demonstrates are most disadvantaged by SDH and, consequently, who suffer the most from ongoing health disparities in America. Each profile begins with a snapshot of that group’s current state of health.

Beyond Male and Female? A Theological Account of Intersex Embodiment

Sam Ashton, St Paul's, Hadley Woods, UK

Are all people either male or female or does intersex embodiment push us beyond the malefemale binary? Traditionalists hold to the former, innovationists argue for the latter. This book combines insights from both camps to maintain that we may know the ‘what’ of our sexed embodiment when we work out where we fit within God’s big story of creation to consummation. It examines the breadth and depth of ancient and modern approaches to discerning the theological meaning and significance of sexed embodiment.

English Public Theology

A Reformation Response to the Crisis of Natural Rights

Joan Lockwood O’Donovan, University of St. Andrews, UK

Examines the public theology of the English Reformation in a fresh and compelling way, as affording elements of a comprehensive theological critique of the western tradition of natural rights. It swims against the current tide of scholarly ethical and political discussion which, outside of Anglican circles, overlooks or dismisses the moral and political theology of the English Reformation. It also plunges against the tide of influential critiques of modern social and political thought, often Aristotelian or Thomist in perspective, which view Reformation theology as a source of the modern problems rather than a resource for addressing them.

Presents a neo-Calvinist theology of human moral experience, drawing from the works of Herman and Johan Bavinck, Geerhardus Vos and Cornelius Van Til.

Confidence in Life

A Barthian Account of Procreation

Matthew Lee Anderson, Baylor University, USA

Confidence in Life offers a theologicallyrobust evaluation of the good of procreation, which emerges out of both careful interactions with contemporary analytic philosophy and a reconstructed reading of Karl Barth’s doctrine of (pro)creation. Though primarily staged as an intervention in Protestant moral theology, Confidence in Life’s rehabilitation of the Virgin Mary’s role in Barth’s thought has promise for an ecumenical retrieval of the good of procreating within the economy of redemption.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer and a Theology of the Exception

Kevin O’Farrell, Joni and Friends Disability Ministry, USA

Examining Bonhoeffer's understanding of the exception as an extraordinary moment in history that disarms persons, impinging on one's understanding of politics and ethics, this book states that this leads to distinctive narrations of key concepts in Bonhoeffer’s corpus: responsibility, the free venture, simple obedience, and action beyond the law. It also offers a different portrait of Bonhoeffer to contemporary narrations.

Appointments with Bonhoeffer Personal Faith and Public Responsibility in a Fragmenting World

Keith Clements, Conference of European Churches, Switzerland

Beginning with the earlier reception of Bonhoeffer as a martyr-figure and then as a provocatively original theologian, the book argues for his relevance to contemporary engagement with public ethics. Addressing issues such as faith and democracy, national identity and the global pandemic, Clements argues that Bonhoeffer's belief that human community is formed by living representatively on behalf of others is the key to being responsible in a fragmenting world.

Bearing Sin as Church Community Bonhoeffer's Hamartiology

Hyun Joo Kim, Torch Trinity Graduate University, Korea

Claims that Bonhoeffer transforms and reconstructs the Augustinian doctrine of original sin by shifting the hamartiological premise from the doctrine of God to the doctrine of the church based on his Lutheran resources. In Bonhoeffer’s view, Augustine’s doctrine of original sin does not fully relate the doctrine of sin to the responsibility of the saints. Interestingly, in order to reform Augustinian hamartiology, Bonhoeffer appropriates Augustine’s notion of the Church as the whole Christ (totus Christus), which is located in Augustine’s ecclesiology.

Richard Hooker

Theological Method and Anglican Identity

Philip Hobday, Wakefield Cathedral, UK

Richard Hooker (1554-1600) is often claimed as articulating or even inventing a strand of Christian life now called ‘Anglicanism’, but different people locate his theology (and the tradition he represents) very differently. This book shows how both Hooker, and the Anglicanism he defended in such elegant prose, can be coherently both ‘catholic’ and ‘reformed’ (rather than one, or the other, or some middle way). Relocating Hooker, and Anglicanism, in this way reveals them to be rich, fruitful conversation partners in ecumenical dialogue and theological debates across Christian traditions.

The Lyric Voice in English Theology

Elizabeth S. Dodd

Elizabeth S. Dodd explores how the lyric voice in English theology has spoken to, within and between church, self and society. By examining a number of texts by authors such as Lancelot Andrewes, William Blake, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, as well as T.S. Elliot and Geoffrey Hill, Dodd concludes that lyric is a vehicle for the imagination; which is the engine of theological thought, but it also has practical, ethical and public implications.

Hearing Spiritual Voices

Medieval Mystics, Meaning and Psychiatry

Christopher C.H. Cook, Durham University, UK

This book takes three 14th century examples of women who heard spiritually significant voices: Margery Kempe, Julian of Norwich, and Joan of Arc. Each of these women, in different ways, has left an enduring legacy in literature and history. Modern psychiatric commentary on the voices that they reported has generally focussed on diagnosis rather than on wider questions of meaning. These commentaries will be used as a lens through which to consider how contemporary psychiatric practice might be enriched by the humanities and enabled to find a more spiritually empathetic, if not also sympathetic, enriching and meaning enhancing perspective on unusual mental phenomena.

At the heart of this book is the attempt to synthesise or reconcile traditional belief with contemporary concern or even alarm regarding evil in the world. Recording the history of the belief in the existence of Satan, this book draws from the Bible, the poetry of Dante and Milton, the legend of Faust, and from modern novels and plays such as the works of Mark Twain and G.B. Shaw, and the spiritual writing of C. S. Lewis. This book chronicles the history of humanity’s attempt to understand the disturbing and mysterious reality of evil.

Reading with Earth

Contributions of the New Materialism to an Ecological Feminist Hermeneutics

Anne Elvey, University of Divinity, Australia

Applying a re-envisioned ecological feminist hermeneutics, this book builds on two important responses to 20th- and 21st-century situations of ecological trauma, especially the complex contexts of climate change and cross-species relations. The first is ecological feminism; the second is ecological hermeneutics in the Earth Bible tradition. Such an approach is both informed by and speaks back to the new materialism in ecological criticism.

The Pentecostal Gender Paradox

Eschatology and the Search for Equality

Joseph Lee Dutko, Oceanside Community Church, Canada

This study critically assesses the relationship between women’s equality and eschatology in the Pentecostal movement. For over one hundred years the role of women in Pentecostalism has been debated without a firm consensus. The two competing impulses of the liberation and the exclusion of women in Pentecostal churches has been described numerous ways, including as the so-called Pentecostal “gender paradox.” By examining gender solely through an eschatological lens in history, Scripture, and praxis, Dutko argues that eschatology provides a valid critical approach in the Pentecostal gender debate because it provdes a consistent hermeneutic that authorizes the unrestricted ministry of women.

This inter- and cross-disciplinary work is a careful yet generous, drawing together of knowledge and wisdom from different domains—historical, philosophical, and theological—in ways recognizably pentecostal and effectively missional.

The Scandal of Pentecost A Theology of the Public Church

Wolfgang Vondey, University of Birmingham, UK

This work analyses the day of Pentecost in its significance for the public advent of the church following the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ. The primary interest of this evaluation is to identify the contributions of Pentecost to a theology of the ‘public church’ – a concept originally developed by the historian of religion Martin E. Marty. At its heart, this book proposes a public ecclesiology with the foundational argument that the day of Pentecost initiates the public witness of the Christian community indicative of its recognition as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Gregory J.

It also outlines some immediate and obvious practical applications of utilising an eschatological Third Article Ecclesiology, and points to areas where the research initiated in this volume could inspire transformation of the Church itself.

African Biblical Studies Unmasking Embedded Racism and Colonialism in Biblical Studies

Andrew M. Mbuvi, Albright College, USA

Mbuvi makes the case for African biblical studies as a vibrant and important emerging distinct discipline, whilst also critiquing biblical studies for its continued underlying racially and imperialistically motivated tendencies. Mbuvi argues that the emergence of biblical studies as a discipline in the West coincides with, and benefits from, the establishment of the colonial project. Mbuvi offers readings that destabilize and undermine dominant approaches and their ingrained prejudices, showing them as unresolved remnants of a colonial past.

The Bible in Photography Index, Icon,

Tableau, Vision

Sheona Beaumont, Diocese of Chichester, UK

This volume addresses the untold story of biblical subjects in photography. Sheona G. Beaumont argues that stories, characters, and symbols from the Bible are found to pervade photographic practices and ideas, across the worlds of advertising and selfies, the book and the gallery, in theoretical discourse and in newspaper reviews. Throughout her journey, she includes lively discussion of selected fine art photography dealing with the Bible in surprising ways, from images by William Henry Fox Talbot in the 19th century to Damien Hirst in the 21st.

Women of the Bible

From Text to Image

Edited by Guadalupe Seijas, Complutense University of Madrid, Spain

Translated by Mónica Ann Walker Vadillo, University of Oxford, UK

The Hebrew Bible and art are at the core of this book, which analyzes the iconographic representation of several women of the Bible. The contributors consider the ways in which the biblical texts regarding these women have been read and understood through time and the means by which they have been represented. By examining figures such as Bathsheba, Moses' Mother, Pharoah's Daughter, Ruth and Naomi, the book also explores the different values associated with these representations according to the problems, worries and concerns of each period.

Examines the dilemma of whether ancient Near Eastern images – while providing unique aspects of the world-views of the cultures from which the Bible arose – can be interpreted in a way that traceably relates them to the biblical text. The essays within this volume describe the methods developed by Othmar Keel for bringing imagery into a dialogue with texts from the ancient Orient and their own interpretation, including previously unpublished material from Keel.

Unity in the Book of Isaiah

Edited by Benedetta Rossi, Pontifical Biblical Institute, Italy, Dominic S. Irudayaraj, Pontifical Biblical Institute, Italy and Hekima College, Kenya and University of Pretoria, South Africa & Gina Hens-Piazza, Jesuit School of Santa Clara, USA

Building on previous holistic readings of the Book of Isaiah, this collection approaches Isaiah through the concept of unity. Contributors outline research that points to new directions in the unity movement and, in the process, bring it under a critical gaze, considering the perennial challenges to unity reading and thus problematizing the very concept of unity. Divided into four parts, the book provides methodological reflections, examines historical and redactional readings, literary readings and contextual or readerorientated readings of the Book of Isaiah.

New Perspectives on Ritual in the Biblical World

Edited by Laura Quick, Princeton University, USA & Melissa Ramos, George Fox University, USA

While treating a diverse range of ritual phenomena (such as space, blessings and oath-taking) from the world of ancient Israel and Judah, essays focus on offering new methods and fresh theoretical perspectives on ritual. Beginning with an introduction that engages with the dominant scholarly models drawn from ritual theory, the chapters reflect high-level specialized engagement with specific ritual phenomena.

Enmity between individuals was an ubiquitous phenomenon in the ancient world. Using the method of legal anthropology, this book examines patterns of hate-driven feuding in kinship-based and segmentary societies and applies these insights to biblical law. It defines the fundamental categories of enmity, love, revenge, honor and shame in the context of feuding. It then illustrates certain legal actions, such giving false witness, and shows how they are expressions of hateful relationships. Adam also uses this to unpack the meaning of the quintessential biblical command to "love your neighbor".

The Conflict Between Faith and Experience, and the Shape of Psalms 73–83

Stephen J. Smith, Belhaven University, USA

Entering the lively discussion of canonical or editorial-criticism of the Hebrew Psalter, this is a detailed investigation into one of its constituent collections, Psalms 73-83. It addresses scholarly disagreement over this collection’s structure, the degree and nature of its literary unity, and its primary message. Smith argues that Psalms 73–82 – and potentially 83 – are deliberately arranged to resolve the disorienting collision between Israel’s faith, traditional theology and the experience of God’s prolonged absence amid the sixth-century exilic crisis.

The Importance of Context

Stanley E. Porter, McMaster Divinity College, Canada

The volume presents Stanley E. Porter's considered thoughts and reflections on key questions of meaning and context, addressing the problems of biblical interpretation and how a close collaboration between hermeneutics and linguistics can help to solve them. Porter focuses on context for understanding the meanings of biblical texts, suggesting that linguists can learn more from the philosophical questions around meaning that hermeneuts apply in their study of biblical texts, and that there is more fruitful work to be done in the field of hermeneutics using insights from linguistics.

Locating the Kingdom of God Performing Sacred Boundaries

Karen J. Wenell, University of Birmingham, UK

Karen J. Wenell offers a new, multidisciplinary way of thinking about the Kingdom of God which fully recognises its sociological and spatial significance in performing boundaries of the sacred. Though spatial-critical perspectives have been increasingly recognised as important across many disciplines, the significance of non-physical religious spaces and their correspondence to boundaries of the sacred has not been explored fully, and never using the specific example of the Kingdom of God. Wennell considers the diverse and sometimes contradictory articulation of the Kingdom in the gospels as well as the ways that Kingdom language frames contemporary ethical debates.

The books considers both the historical and material world of the parables’ composition, and focuses on the social, political, economic, and material elements of that world. It not only explores how the parables may have been seen and heard in ancient contexts but also considers the lessons they have imparted to subsequent and contemporary listeners.

Paul, The Apostle of Obedience Reading Obedience in Romans

Jason A. Myers, Greensboro College, USA; WTC Theology, UK

A reconsideration of the phrase “the obedience of faith” and the theme of obedience in Romans. In contrast to previous studies that have near exclusively focused on the obedience language in light of the Hebrew Bible and 2nd Temple literature, Myers instead investigates how this language functioned within the Greco-Roman world, particularly in the discourse of the Roman Empire. He also explores how some in Paul’s audience may have understood the language of obedience.

Stanley focuses in particular on two questions that have been neglected in previous scholarship on the apostle Paul: first, what did Paul think, say, and do regarding the treatment of his own and his followers’ illnesses and injuries, including “pagan” modes of medical care? And second, how did his ideas on this subject affect the success of his missionary enterprise?

The Legacy of Fascism in Rome's Architectural and Urban History

Flavia Marcello, Swinburne University of Technology, Australia

After the Fall explores the many traces of fascism that can be found in the architecture and urban form of Rome – from its buildings, monuments and piazze, to its street names and graffiti. It reveals how the legacy of this short period in history shaped - and continues to shapeRome’s contemporary cityscape in powerful ways, and examines what this can tell us about the persistence of troubling political and historical legacies in the built environment. Adding a new chapter to the architectural history of Rome, this fascinating history brings architecture, politics, and art together as living, contested experiences in a host of different locations around contemporary Rome.

Is Architecture Art?

Architecture and Aesthetic Theory Since the 18th Century

John MacArthur, University of Queensland, Australia

Is Architecture Art? explores the key conceptual questions about the aesthetic appreciation of architecture and its persistently contested status as an art form. It engages the work of thinkers ranging from Hume and Kant to Adorno, Tafuri, and Rancière, and draws on accessible and thought-provoking accounts of historical and contemporary architectural and art theory. Taking novel approaches to issues that will be familiar to the practising architect, Is Architecture Art? will provoke discussion and debate, and force a new understanding of the purpose of architectural practice in the contemporary era as the concepts of ‘art’, ‘the arts’, and of the creative economy have shifted and blurred as never before.

Notable for their technical innovation, elaborate language and careful execution, ESUS’ buildings also reveal how the international ideals of architectural modernism were adapted to local Latin American contexts. This book examines ESUS’ work from an array of perspectives, showing in particular how their high-rise concrete buildings contribute to new understandings of the history of concrete architecture. Including previously unpublished archival documents, images, and drawings, this is an important new account of modernism in Latin America.

Malayan Classicism

From the Architecture of Empire to Asian Vernacular

Soon-Tzu Speechley, University of Melbourne, Australia

Presenting the first comprehensive account of Malaya’s most widespread architectural style prior to World War II, Malayan Classicism looks at how the classical architecture of the British Empire was transmitted, translated, and transformed in the hands of local builders and architects. Addressing a critical gap in the scholarship, this book charts the metamorphosis of an imperial language of power into a local vernacular style, and provides a new way of reading classical architecture in a post-colonial context that will be applicable throughout the Global South.

Analogical Thinking in Architecture

Connecting Design and Theory in the Built Environment

Jean-Pierre Chupin, University of Montreal, Canada

This book looks at how “analogical thinking”— a way of reasoning in which symbolic connections allow designers to address complexity—offers an agile way to respond to the heterogeneous, and often contradictory, value systems prevalent in architectural design. Offering a reappraisal of theories on the role of analogical thinking by prominent architects including Aldo Rossi, Peter Eisenman, Frederick Kiesler; historians; and theoreticians, the book provides both a comprehensive introduction to the concept of “analogical thinking” in architecture and the first theorization of analogy specifically within the field of the built environment.

The Minimum Dwelling Revisited CIAM's Practical Utopia (1928–31)

Aristotle Kallis, Keele University, UK

This book provides an intellectual history of the modernist ‘minimum dwelling’, exploring how early modernism saw mass housing as a primary vehicle for achieving the utopian transformation of society. It reappraises the often-overlooked 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences (1929-31), revealing them both as milestones in the organisation's annals and as seminal moments in the history of interwar modernism. Serving as a corrective to the overemphasis on CIAM IV and the Athens Charter, the book is essential reading for scholars researching urban design during the interwar period.

Design and the Vernacular Interpretations for Contemporary Architectural Practice and Theory

Edited

This book explores the intersection between vernacular architecture, local cultures, and modernity and globalization. Focussing on Australasia and Oceania, it examines the relevance of vernacular architecture to contemporary urban planning and architectural design, placing this against a contextual background of rapid political, economic, technological, social and environmental changes including globalization, exchanges of people, finance, material culture, and digital technologies. Seventeen chapters by architects, designers and theorists, including Indigenous writers, provide valuable case studies and lessons for architecture in other global regions and challenge assumptions about vernacular architecture being anachronistic and static, instead demonstrating how it can shape contemporary architecture, nation building and cultural identities.

Building/Object

Shared and Contested Territories of Design and Architecture

Edited by Charlotte Ashby, Birkbeck University of London, UK & Mark Crinson, Birkbeck University, UK

Building/Object addresses the space in-between the conventional objects of design and the conventional objects of architecture – a space often neglected because of the disciplinary differences that have developed between design history and architectural history. It does this across 13 distinct essays, each examining things which are neither objectlike or building-like, but somewhere in between – air conditioning; bookshelves; partition walls; table-monuments; TVs; convenience stores; cars – with the twofold aim both of giving these areas new weight and intellectual interest in our understanding of the human environment, and of probing and reassessing the differences between the disciplines of design history and architectural history.

Mary Kelly's Concentric Pedagogy Selected Writings

This book collects classic essays together with never-before published archival documents detailing the innovative pedagogical program of major artist and thinker Mary Kelly. It brings to the fore how a democratic studio teaching practice, mainstream today, is historically an effect of the feminist pedagogy Kelly has advocated and practiced over many years. In our current moment of renewed calls to rethink the structures of power that shape academic discourse on art and culture, Kelly’s work presented here is evidence that the intersection of teaching, artistic practice, and radical political engagement can be transformative.

Space Feminisms People, Planets, Power

Space Feminisms examines how scientific, popular, scholarly, and artistic imaginations of outer space have, since the 1950s, reflected and embedded Earthly hopes, anxieties, and futures. It centres feminism as a mode by which to both theorize and materialize a redistribution of social power around space exploration, space science, and human presence in extra-Earth environments. At the intersection of scientific, cultural, social, and artistic speculations, the essays in this book gather leading scholars, scientists, artists, and designers to develop innovative tactics and disruptive participations to create generative, alternative, and careful futures of and in outer space.

The first art historical English-language study of its kind, this book considers Germany's failed engagement with its colonial past and argues for the necessity of taking postcolonial thinking on board when constructing museum spaces in order to generate genuine exchange between multiple perspectives. Curating Transcultural Spaces argues that the 'scandal' of the Humboldt Forum, where appropriation of national collections of many world cultures revealed insensitivity towards non-Western cultures, has precipitated an eruption of identity conflicts in Germany, bound up with its histories of colonialism, National-Socialism, the GDR, and reunification, as well as its current status as country shaped by immigration and multiculturalism.

The Artist at Home Studios, Practices and Identities

This book explores the home as a distinct site of artistic practice. Using examples from across Europe and the Anglophone world between the mid-20th century and the present, each chapter considers the different circumstances for working at home, the impact on the creative lives of the artists, their identities as artists and on the work itself, and how, sometimes, these were projected and promoted through photographs and the media. The book comprises full-length chapters by artists, architects, art and design historians, interleaved with short interviews with artists to enrich and broaden the debates.

The Machine Anxieties of Steampunk Contemporary Philosophy, Victorian Aesthetics, and the Future

Kathe Hicks Albrecht, Institute for Doctoral Studies in the Visual Arts, USA

What is steampunk and why are people across the globe eagerly embracing its neo-Victorian aesthetic? Old-fashioned eye goggles, lace corsets, leather vests, brass gears and gadgets, mechanical clocks, the look appears across popular culture, in movies, art, fashion, and literature. Steampunk expresses optimism for the future but it also delivers a note of caution about our human role in light of the ubiquitous machine. Thus, despite adopting an aesthetic and lifestyle straight out of the Victorian scientific romance, steampunk addresses significant 21st-century concerns about what lies ahead for humankind.

Art and Commerce in Late Imperial Russia

The Peredvizhniki, a Partnership of Artists

Andrey Shabanov, European University at Saint Petersburg, Russia

Andrey Shabanov’s seminal reinterpretation of the Peredvizhniki is a comprehensive study that examines in-depth for the first time the organizational structure, self-representation, exhibitions, and critical reception of this 19thcentury artistic partnership. Shabanov advances a more pragmatic reading of the Peredvizhniki, artists seeking professional and creative freedom in authoritarian Tsarist Russia. He likewise demonstrates and challenges how and why the group eventually came to be defined as a critically-minded Realist art movement. Unprecedentedly rich in new primary visual and textual sources, the book also connects afresh the Russian and Western art worlds of the period. A must-read for anyone interested in Russian art and culture, 19th-century European art, and also the history of art exhibitions, art movements, and the art market.

Gustave Caillebotte as Worker, Collector, Painter

Samuel Raybone, Aberystwyth University, UK

Gustave Caillebotte was more than a painter: he collected and researched postage stamps; designed and built yachts; administered and participated in the sport of yachting; collected paintings; cultivated and collected rare orchids; designed and tended his gardens; and engaged in local politics. Gustave Caillebotte as Worker, Collector, Painter presents the first comprehensive account of Caillebotte’s manifold activities. It presents a completely new critical interpretation of Caillebotte’s broad career that highlights the singular salience of ‘work’, and which intersects histories and theories of visual culture, ideology, and psychoanalysis. Where the recent art historical ‘rediscovery’ of Caillebotte offers multiple narratives of his identification with working men, this book goes beyond them towards excavating what his work was in its own terms.

One of the most prolific and influential artists of the 20th century, Jean Dubuffet has featured in a multitude of exhibitions and catalogues. Yet he remains one of the most misunderstood—and least interrogated—postwar French artists. This book reexamines Dubuffet’s art through the lens of his portraits (a veritable who’s who of the Parisian art and intellectual scene) in tandem with his writings and the art and writings of his Surrealist sitters. Investigating Dubuffet’s painting as bricolage, this book explores the themes of multivalence, performativity, and multifaceted identity in his portraits.

Ephemerality and Demolition in Postwar Visual Culture

Mona Hadler, Brooklyn College and City University of New York, USA

Destruction Rites explores the ephemeral visual culture of destruction in the postwar era and its links to contemporary art. It examines the demolition derby; games and toys based on warfare; playgrounds situated in bomb sites; and the rise of garage sales, where goods designed for obsolescence and destined for the garbage heap are reclaimed and repurposed by local communities.

Mona Hadler looks at artists such as Jean Tinguely, Niki de Saint Phalle, Martha Rosler and Vito Acconci to expose how the 1960s saw destruction, construction and the everyday collide as never before.

Images of Sex Work in Early Twentieth-Century America

Gender, Sexuality and Race in the Storyville Portraits

Mollie LeVeque

Storyville was the infamous red-light district of New Orleans. It was a world where normative social values didn’t apply and was shrouded in mystery and myth until the photographs of E.J. Bellocq were rediscovered. Bellocq’s depictions of Storyville’s sex workers have typically been treated as tragic, ominous and emblematic of New Orleans’ singularity. Yet, such interpretations have projected gendered stereotypes of frailty and victimhood onto the women they portrayed. In Images of Sex Work, Mollie LeVeque interrogates these glib readings and argues that sex work was a routine aspect of life in a modern city. She supports this theory by examining a range of cultural forms. In doing so, she advances the new argument that Bellocq humanised his subjects, de-sensationalised sex work and gave these women the dignity they were all too often denied.

Jean-Jacques Lebel and French Happenings of the 1960s

The Erotics of Revolution

Laurel Jean Fredrickson, Southern Illinois University, USA

Combining a broad overview of Jean-Jacques Lebel’s coming-of-age among the Surrealists and his rupture with the movement, Laurel Fredrickson focuses on two landmark happenings: the first, Burial of the Thing of Tinguely (1960), and the most scandalous, 120 Minutes dedicated to the Divine Marquis (1966). In doing so, the study illustrates the development and significance of French happenings in relation to the cultural and political changes of the 1960s. Research in Lebel’s personal archives and access to the restricted archive of Kristine Stiles, Lebel’s close friend and confidant, are indispensable in the telling of this extraordinary historical and theoretical narrative.

Moving with the Magdalen

Late Medieval Art and Devotion in the Alps

Joanne W. Anderson, Warburg Institute, UK Moving with the Magdalen is the first art-historical book dedicated to the cult of Mary Magdalen in the late medieval Alps. Its seven case study chapters focus on the artworks commissioned for key churches that belonged to both parish and pilgrimage networks in order to explore the role of artistic workshops, commissioning patrons and diverse devotees in the development and transfer of the saint’s iconography across the mountain range. Together they underscore how the Magdalen’s cult and contingent imagery interacted with the environmental conditions and landscape of the Alps along late medieval routes.

The 19th century in France witnessed the emergence of the structures of the modern art market that remain until this day. This book examines the relationship between the avant-garde Barbizon landscape painter, Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867), and this market, exploring the constellation of patrons, art dealers and critics who surrounded the artist. It argues for the pioneering role of Rousseau, his patrons and his public in the origins of the modern art market, and, in so doing, shifts attention away from the more traditional focus on the novel careers of the Impressionists and their supporters.

Picturing the Beautiful Game

A History of Soccer in Visual Culture and Art

Picturing the Beautiful Game: A History of Soccer in Visual Culture and Art is the first collection to examine the rich visual culture of soccer, including the fine arts, design, and mass media. Covering a range of topics related to the game’s imagery, this volume investigates the ways soccer has been promoted, commemorated, and contested in visual terms. Throughout various mediums and formats—including illustrated newspapers, modern posters, and contemporary artworks—soccer has come to represent issues relating to identity, politics, and globalization. As the contributors to this collection suggest, these representations of the game reflect society and soccer’s place in our collective imagination.

In Private

Joanne Turney, Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, UK

In Private offers a cultural history of domestic interior design in Britain and America over the course of the 1970s, a decade that shaped the contemporary relationship between fashion and interiors. With each chapter dedicated to a different room in the house, this collection explores style, design and sociocultural influence from the sitting room to the sauna, and from the kitchen to the conservatory. Demonstrating how the sociocultural environment of the 1970s sparked the ideas, styles and practices that have become common currency in today’s interior design, the book examines questions of sensuality, tactility, fashion, fantasy and gender.

Relationality

An Emergent Politics of Life Beyond the Human

Arturo Escobar, University of North Carolina, USA, Michal Osterweil, University of North Carolina, USA & Kriti Sharma, California Institute of Technology, USA

Relationality argues that at the root of the contemporary crisis of climate, energy, food, inequality, and meaning is a certain core presupposition that structures the ways in which we live, think, act and design: the assumption of dualism, or the fundamental separateness of things. The key to constructing livable worlds lies in the cultivation of ways of knowing and acting based on a profound awareness of the fundamental interdependence of everything that exists – relationality. The authors explain and exemplify the modes of operation and the dire consequences of non-relational living, and they elucidate the nature of designing “relationally”.

Reflections on the Causes and Consequences of Fashion’s ‘Western’Centrism

Many books explain how people dress to define themselves within their society and community. Hang-Ups considers the clothing society suggests people shouldn’t wear because it violates contemporary norms and expectations. It spotlights topics that remain culturally sensitive for communities around the world – among them, nudity, size, gender, sexuality, race and religion – and, using examples of contentious fashion catwalks, advertising campaigns and high-street retailers, it locates the cause and consequences of public censure by placing the clothing controversy in its cultural and historical frame.

Analyzing the tactics brands including Burberry, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana and Prada adopt to avoid or mitigate scandals, Vänskä and Gurova map the fashion industry’s journey towards cultural sustainability.

Fashion and Motherhood Image, Material, Identity

Edited by Laura Snelgrove, Independent Researcher, UK

Exploring the essential question of how motherhood and fashion interact, this collection interrogates their relationships to power, misogyny, temporality, longing and embodiment. 18 essays examine representations on film, in popular print and literature; using images, narrative and material evidence from the past to excavate how mothers have been expected to hide, display, share and sacrifice their bodies. An international range of scholars trace three centuries of how fashion and motherhood have operated as powerfully interdependent experiences and continue to determine how women are judged and corralled, yet also find meaning, connection and strength.

From Sleepwear to Sportswear How Beach Pajamas Reshaped Women's Fashion

Janine D'Agati & Hannah Schiff

From Sleepwear to Sportswear analyses the rise of the sleepwear trend and its influence in creating the image of the trousered woman, now particularly associated with The American Look. Through meticulous research and never-before-seen images, the authors explore how pajamas came to symbolise much more than sleepwear: in the context of the Golden Age of Travel, the rise of Hollywood and the changing political climate of the 20th century the versatile garment influenced culture more broadly and was bound to the independence of women.

Dressing and Undressing Duchamp

Ingrid E. Mida, Independent Art and Dress

Historian, Artist and Curator, Canada

Marcel Duchamp’s engagement with clothing has been little-studied. However, photographs of the artist immediately reveal his knowledge of the significance of fashion and clothing to the visual representation of the self. This book explores clothing and dressing as significant themes that recur in Duchamp’s life and his work –including his drawings, his fashioning of his body, his readymades, and his curatorial gestures. In considering the material traces of Duchamp’s fashioning of his body and identity, this book makes a highly original contribution to the understanding of his work and the significance of the clothed body in the vanguard of Modernism.

Dress and Identity in America

The Baby Boom Years 1946-1964

Daniel Delis Hill, Fashion Historian, UK

Dress and Identity in America 1946-1964 is an examination of the conservatism and materialism that swept across the country in the late 1940s through the 1950s—a backlash to the wartime tumult, privations, and social upheavals. It looks at how American men sought to recapture a masculine identity from a generation earlier, that of the stoic patriarch, breadwinner, and dutiful father; and how American women were now expected to stay at home as housewives and mothers. Through these examples it analyses the sociocultural and socio-political causes for changes in dress and identity over the period, and how the baby-boom generation came to reject these trends.

In the 17th and early 18th centuries, seamstressing was a trade for women who worked in linen and cotton. Some of these seamstresses were consummate craftswomen, able to skilfully sew with stitches almost invisible to the naked eye. By the 1840s, however, most seamstresses were sweated workers paid unbelievably low rates per dozen for the garments they produced, notorious examples of downtrodden, exploited womenfolk. This book explores the seamstress’s change of status and the reasons for it, hinting at the resurgence of the trade today in a climate where few 21st century women can repair and alter their own clothes.

Construction Knitting

Knitwear Design With Geometric Shapes

Nikki Gabriel, Knitwear and textile designer, New Zealand

Construction Knitting uses clear visual aids to demonstrate modular exercises for practical and theoretical applications of hand, machine and digital knitting methods. While the idea of using geometric shapes for knitting is not new, Nikki Gabriel's development of construction knitting is a system designed for the user to be codesigner, so the book provides the tools for the reader to engage and transform the design to fit their individual needs and preferences. Construction Knitting is a creative approach to garment construction and a useful visual reference guide for design students, professionals or hobby knitters.

Turkey Red

Julie Wertz, Harvard Art Museums, USA

Prized for its brilliant colour and durability, yet notoriously difficult to produce, Turkey red became a major industry in the 18th- and 19th-century global economy, consumed locally and exported around the world. This book explores the arc of the Turkey red industry: the evolution of the process through key producers and technical developments, the complicated printing process, significant Turkey red collections and a selection of object case studies. Turkey Red presents significant new research on the material characterisation of this fascinating, eye-catching textile, and offers an in-depth historical example of the global effect of textile consumption.

Textiles on Film

Becky Peterson, University of New Mexico, USA

Scholars have given much attention to the connections between fashion and film but, until now, no study has comprehensively explored the relationship between fabric and film. This book fills this gap in the literature by looking at how textiles are used by filmmakers to create mood, communicate meaning and convey drama. In case studies from Hitchcock classics and Hollywood blockbusters such as The Matrix to lesser-known arthouse films, Peterson reveals the social nuances of fabrics and unearths new possibilities for understanding cinema.
