Presidents in the Movies
On Media Memory
American History and Politics on Screen
Collective Memory in a New Media Age
Edited by Iwan W. Morgan, Professor of US Studies; Deputy Director; Head of US Programmes, Institute for the Study of the Americas, School of Advanced Study, University of London, UK
Cinematic depictions of real U.S. presidents from Abraham Lincoln to George W. Bush explore how Hollywood movies represent American history and politics on screen. Morgan and his contributors show how films blend myth and reality to present a positive message about presidents as the epitome of America's values and idealism until unpopular foreign wars in Vietnam and Iraq led to a darker portrayal of the imperial presidency, operated by Richard Nixon and Bush 43. This exciting new collection further considers how Hollywood has continually reinterpreted historically significant presidents, notably Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, to fit the times in which movies about them were made. Contents: Transition: The Making of Screen Presidents; I.Scott / D. W. Griffith’s Lincoln; M.Stokes / The ‘Picture Man:’ The Cinematic Strife of Theodore Roosevelt; B.Neve / Darryl F. Zanuck’s Wilson (1944); M.Wheeler / The ‘Confidence’ President: Franklin D.

British Social Realism in the Arts since 1940 Edited by David Tucker, University of Sussex, UK
‘This is an outstanding study of the histories and meanings of social realism in Britain since 1940, which is as attentive to the diversity of its forms and politics, as it is imaginative about its possibilities. The six chapters, written by leading scholars in the study of the arts, offer intellectually stimulating and sophisticated analyses of the significance of social realism in modern and contemporary British culture, from Coronation Street, Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, and Mass Observation, to The Royle Family, Tom Leonard, and Jez Butterworth.’ - John Brannigan, University College Dublin, Republic of Ireland This is the first book of its kind to look across disciplines at this vital aspect of British art, literature and culture. It brings the various intertwined histories of social realism into historical perspective, and argues that this sometimes marginalized genre is still an important reference point for creativity in Britain.

Maeroff, Senior Fellow; formerly Founding Director, Hechinger Institute on Education and the Media, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA; formerly National Education Correspondent for the New York Times; author of over a dozen books including The Guide to Suburban Public Schools, Team Building for School Change, School Smart Parent, Altered Destinies, and A Classroom of One
School boards spend almost $500 billion in taxpayer-provided funds, accounting for the single largest expenditure of tax revenues at the local and state levels. They employ more than six million people, a veritable jobs machine that offers pensions and lifetime health benefits that have helped build the mountain of obligation that has put state governments across the country in fiscal peril. Above all, school boards have a hand in determining the instructional program that shapes the nation's future. Yet, Americans seldom think about their local boards of education and have little understanding of the pivotal position they occupy. This book will lift the veil of obscurity from the nation's school boards and make readers think about issues that they have not previously considered.

The Many Dimensions of Chinese Feminism Ya-Chen Chen, academic interests include Sino-Western comparative literature, Asian Studies, women’s and gender studies, (multi)cultural studies, and film studies
In the current English-language publication market, this book is one of the earliest academic monographs to comparatively investigate different feminist scholars and academic feminism across the Taiwan Strait. It problematizes recent scholarly understanding of feminist complexity in various Chinese-speaking areas. This book addresses socio-cultural backgrounds of how Mainland Chinese, Taiwanese, and Hong Kong feminist scholars strategize their transfers, localization, and acculturation of Western feminist literary theories. It emphasizes how Chinese literary theorists filter, gate-keep, select, import latest Western feminist theories, and then match them with local socio-cultural trends by exerting comparative researchers' cross-cultural and cross-lingual academic power in order to tackle Mainland China's, Taiwan's, and Hong Kong's own gender problems.

‘Intimate, revealing - and sometimes downright embarrassing - the newly revealed love letters at the heart of The Harding Affair provide an altogether fresh look at a future American President hopelessly in love with a woman not his wife.’ - Geoffrey C. Ward, author of A First-Class Temperament and The War: An Intimate History, 1941-1945 ‘Warren Harding has always been ranked as one of the worst U.S. presidents. But [this] book might just boost his image. Readers will see a tender, human side of Harding and also learn about his opposition to President Woodrow Wilson’s nation-building efforts abroad after World War I an issue that still resonates. If he had assumed the presidency in 1917 instead of 1921...[it may have] led to an outcome that would have drastically changed the course of the 20th century.’ - The Columbus Dispatch The never-before-told story of President Harding’s secret affair with pro-German advocate Carrie Phillips, based on their never-before-published love letters.

This volume seeks to radically revise the Saidian analytical framework which has dominated research on the subject of colonial knowledge for almost two decades and which emphasizes colonial knowledge as a series of representations of colonial hegemony. Instead, this book considers knowledge in colonial India as a dynamic process, produced in historically specific, and changing, social and intellectual contexts, and as an essentially unstable, fractured and contingent set of ideas and practices, produced in unpredictable and often self-contradictory ways for different audiences.

Economy, Transnationalism, Identity Gregor Benton, School of History and Archaeology, Cardiff University, UK and Edmund Terence Gomez, Palais des Nations, Switzerland
‘The study reveals a greater complexity to Chinese life in Britain than has been assumed to be the case, and clearly shows how a distinct identity has emerged and is now threatened, as young modern Chinese rely less on ethnic customs forged over the last century. The book also provides a useful case study of exclusionary practices of the dominant white society in Britain, and how they have influenced, for good and bad, British Chinese identity.’ Choice ‘A reawakening, a rejection of infatuation with fashionable theories and concepts. The authors have stayed close and true to the studies of Chinese diaspora...Thus, the book is a valuable contribution towards the understanding of similarities and more importantly diversities among Chinese communities.’ - Yow Cheun Hoe, East Asia This study examines the complex interplay of ethnic and national identities in the lives of Chinese in Britain, arguing that transnational studies reinforce essentialist conceptions of identity and cultural authenticity in diasporic communities, and thus frustrate the promotion of ethnic co-existence and social cohesion in multi-ethnic societies.

Imperial Endgame
The Literature of the Irish in Britain
Britain’s Dirty Wars and the End of Empire
Autobiography and Memoir, 1725–2001
Benjamin Grob-Fitzgibbon, Assistant Professor of History, University of Arkansas, USA
The story of the British Empire in the twentiethcentury is one of decline, disarray, and despondency. Or so we have been told. In this fresh and controversial account of Britain’s end of empire, Benjamin Grob-Fitzgibbon reveals that in fact the British government developed a successful strategy of decolonization following the Second World War which kept the soon-to-be former colonies with British and Western spheres of influence during the Cold War.

Courage, Tragedy, and Justice in World War II
New in Paperback
Gregory A. Freeman, Award-winning writer with more than 25 years’ experience in journalism and historical nonfiction
Military historian Gregory A. Freeman brings to life for the first time the dramatic story of a young American bomber crew that was forced to bail out over Germany in August 1944. After landing, they were captured and lynched in a two-hour assault by local townspeople who had fallen prey to the worst impulses of the ravages of war. The families of these airmen were never told what actually happened to their loved ones and the few survivors had to carry this burden alone for years. After the war, a highly dramatic trial took place in the German town, forcing the locals to confront their wartime atrocity. Drawing from government archives, photos, trial records, interviews with family members, and letters home from the crew, Freeman creates a vivid narrative of the dramatic event and follows the survivors moving, sometimes heartrending, efforts to understand how good men could die in such a terrible way and how those left behind are supposed to go on.

‘A tight, concentrated tale of adversity and survival...Evenhanded, at once pragmatic and inspiring.’ - Caroline Weber, The New York Times Book Review ‘Jeffrey H. Jackson tells this epic story with wit and verve and his book moves at the cracking pace of a good novel. He is also a rigorous historian with a forensic eye for the telling detail excavated from the archives.’ History Today Magazine In the winter of 1910 the river that brought life to Paris became a force of destruction drowning Parisian streets, forcing its inhabitants to overcome a history of strife and work together. On the hundredth anniversary of the flood, Jeffrey H. Jackson captures here for the first time the drama and ultimate victory of man over nature.

It provides countless sound judgements, and dispenses with a tremendous amount of nonsense.’ - Timothy Snyder, Times Literary Supplement This work focuses on the ideological intertwining between Czech, Magyar, Polish and Slovak, and the corresponding nationalisms steeped in these languages. The analysis is set against the earlier political and ideological history of these languages, and the panorama of the emergence and political uses of other languages of the region.

How Italian Food Conquered the World John F. Mariani, Food and travel columnist for Esquire, wine columnist and radio/TV reporter for Bloomberg News, contributing editor at Wine Spectator, and food columnist for Diversion. He has been called by The Philadelphia Inquirer 'the most influential food-wine critic in the popular press.'
Not so long ago, Italian food was regarded as a poor man's gruel - little more than pizza, macaroni with sauce, and red wines in a box. Combining vivid history with first-hand insights and anecdotes, veteran Esquire food writer John Mariani serves up a delicious chronicle of the rise of Italian cuisine, telling the story of how the Italian immigrants to America created, through perseverance and sheer necessity, an ItalianAmerican food culture, and how it became a global obsession.

A History of Catholic Antisemitism The Dark Side of the Church Robert Michael, Professor Emeritus of European History, University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth, USA
‘Michael’s work is pathbreaking, in that few before him have tackled both the historical and theological foundations of Catholic antisemitism and, at the same time, traced its path from biblical times all the way through to Auschwitz. In this, Michael is brave; but, as this outstanding work shows, his bravery is vindicated. His treatment of such topics as the Church’s age-old and ongoing dehumanization of the Jews, coupled with its failure to confront that supreme manifestation of evil that became manifest in the Nazis, is an important contribution to an already massive literature on antisemitism and the Holocaust.’ -Paul R. Bartrop, Head, Department of History, Bialik College, Australia Moving from the Catholic Church’s pagan origins, through the Roman era, middle ages, and Reformation to the present, Robert Michael here provides a definitive history of Catholic antisemitism.

Although we associate the Third Reich above all with suffering, pain and fear, pleasure played a central role in its social and cultural dynamics. This book explores the relationship between the rationing of pleasures as a means of political stabilization and the pressure on the Nazi regime to cater to popular cultural expectations.
The turbulent relationship between Napoleon and his favourite brother, Lucien, of whom the emperor said, 'of all my siblings, he was the most gifted, and the one who hurt me most,' creates the perfect springboard to illustrate the bloody power struggles, romantic idealism, and corruption that characterized nineteenth-century Europe, as well as the rise and fall of the French empire.

This compelling, intimate portrait of the Bonapartes, delves into the conflicted relationship between Napoleon and his beloved brother Lucien. Lucien was the most talented of the Bonaparte brothers, who not only can be credited for helping Napoleon seize power, but who also had a promising political career of his own. He was a romantic, an idealist, and an anti-monarchist whose love for Alexandrine, the woman he married in spite of Napoleon's objections, caused him to fall out of favour with his powerful brother. Here, authors Simonetta and Arikha draw from a massive trove of first-hand documents, to present a rare, detailed portrait of this remarkable dynasty that reveals Emperor Napoleon and his family at their most intimate and vulnerable moments.

Hitler’s Ethic The Nazi Pursuit of Evolutionary Progress Richard Weikart, Professor of Modern European History, California State University, Stanislaus, USA
‘There have been many attempts to provide the key to Hitler’s world of ideas but Richard Weikart has succeeded in revealing what must be the central element in any understanding of Hitler’s world view. The terrible paradox at the heart of the Third Reich, that biological utopia could only be created by intense physical suffering and violence, now has a proper explanation. What seemed to others bizarrely immoral appeared to Hitler an honourable duty.’ - Richard Overy, Professor of History, University of Exeter, UK In this book, Weikart helps unlock the mystery of Hitler’s evil by vividly demonstrating the surprising conclusion that Hitler’s immorality flowed from a coherent ethic. Hitler was inspired by evolutionary ethics to pursue the utopian project of biologically improving the human race. Contents: Introduction / Hitler as Moral Crusader and Liar / The Cult of Evolutionary Progress / Racial Struggle / Morally Upright Aryans and Immoral Jews / Hitler’s Socialism: Building the People’s Community / Sexual Morality and Population Expansion / Controlling Reproduction to Improve the Human Species / The Struggle for Living Space: War and Expansionism / Justifying Murder and Genocide / Conclusion May 2011 Paperback

Chasing Shadows A Special Agent’s Lifelong Hunt to Bring A Cold War Assassin to Justice Fred Burton, One of the world’s foremost experts on security, terrorists and terrorist organizations with John Bruning, Military Historian and Author
Reviews for Ghost: Confessions of a Counterterrorism Expert: ‘With spy thriller suspense and the clarity of a police report, former special agent Burton’s State Department saga reads like a brewing-storm prequel to the current ‘war on terror.’ - Publishers Weekly ‘This book reads like a le Carré spy novel...Shorn of ideological rights and wrongs, it’s a fascinating look at what counterterrorism really means on a day-to-day level.’ - Booklist In July 1973, a gunman stepped from behind a tree and fired five shots, point blank, into Colonel Joe Alon, high-ranking Israeli military official and hero of the Israeli Air Force. Sixteen-year-old Fred Burton was deeply shocked by this crime that rocked his sleepy suburban neighborhood of Bethesda, Maryland. The assassin was never found and the case was closed. Decades lates, as a State Department counterterrorism special agent, Fred Burton reopened the case and pursued the killer. This action-packed history spans the globe and several fraught decades in our history, spinning a gripping tale of agents, double agents, terrorists, and heroes as Burton chases leads around the globe in an effort to solve this decades-old murder.

Changes in Complementation in British and American English
A Generative-Sociolinguistic Perspective on Concord Variation
Corpus-Based Studies on Non-Finite Complements in Recent English
Laura Rupp, Lecturer, Vrije University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands and David Britain, University of Essex, UK
Juhani Rudanko, Professor of English, University of Tampere, Finland
The book shows how the system of English predicate complementation has been undergoing an amazing amount of variation and change in recent centuries, and identifies explanatory principles to account for this change and variation, with evidence from large electronic corpora of both British and American English.
The authors address aspects of concord variation in English including: the forms that it may take, historical development, linguistic constraints, geographical distribution and social differentiation. They argue that adequate understanding of concord variation is only achieved if we integrate perspectives of different linguistic disciplines.

Ovidian Myth and Sexual Deviance in Early Modern English Literature Sarah Carter, Independent Scholar, UK
‘With a wonderfully attentive critical eye to the nuances of meaning about the most provocative and secret domain of desire inspired by Ovid, this meticulously researched, engagingly written and convincingly argued book pushes the early modern criticism of sexuality in new directions...This is an accessible and interesting book.’ - Goran Stanivukovic, Saint Mary’s University, Canada Carter explores early modern culture’s reception of Ovid through the manipulation of Ovidian myth by Shakespeare, Middleton, Heywood, Marlowe and Marston.

Shakespeare Studies Today Romanticism Lost Edward Pechter, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Concordia University, Canada; Adjunct Professor of English, University of Victoria, Canada
Foreign and Native on the English Stage, 1588–1611 Metaphor and National Identity Jane Pettegree, Teaching Assistant, University of St Andrews, UK
The Romantics invented Shakespeare studies, and in losing contact with our origins, we have not been able to develop an adequate alternative foundation on which to build our work. This book asserts that among Shakespeareans at present, the level of conviction required to sustain a healthy critical practice is problematically if not dangerously low, and the qualities which the Romantics valued in an engagement with Shakespeare are either ignored these days or fundamentally misunderstood. Contents: PART I: DISCIPLINE AND DESIRE / Return of the Aesthetic? / Negative Desire: Materialism and its Discontents / PART II: WHAT'S WRONG WITH LITERATURE? / New Theatricalism: The Repudiation of Literary Interest / New Textualism: Crisis in Editing / PART III: ROMANTICISM LOST / Formalism: The Question of Romantic Anti-Theatricalism / Romantic Authorship, Post-Romantic Professionalism June 2011 Hardback

‘...perhaps the strongest and most unique feature of this work is the humaneness of its scholarship, which causes the reader to share the deep interest and compassion the authors evidently feel for their subjects.’ - Tristanne Connolly, Assistant Professor of English, St. Jerome’s University, Canada Arising from a research project on depression in the eighteenth century, this book discusses the experience of depressive states both in terms of existing modes of thought and expression, and of attempts to describe and live with suffering.

Sean Heuston combines interdisciplinary analysis, specifically ethnography, with close reading, and in so doing argues provocatively for the intersection of modern poetry studies and contemporary ethnographic theory.

Children in Culture, Revisited follows on from the first volume, Children in Culture, and is composed of a range of chapters, newly written for this collection, which offer further fully inter- and multidisciplinary considerations of childhood as a culturally and historically constructed identity rather than a constant psycho-biological entity.
Translated by Robert Tally, Professor, Department of English, Texas State University, USA
Geocriticism provides a theoretical foundation and a critical exploration of geocriticism, an interdisciplinary approach to understanding literature in relation to space and place. Drawing on diverse thinkers, Westphal argues that a geocritical approach enables novel ways of seeing literary texts and of conducting literary studies.

Geoffrey of Monmouth’s fame as the biographer of the legendary hero King Arthur has often prevented readers from recognizing his significance as a historian and creator of myth.

The ‘Invisible Hand’ and British Fiction 1818–1860 Adam Smith, Political Economy, and the Genre of Realism Eleanor Courtemanche, Assistant Professor of English, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA
The ‘invisible hand’, Adam Smith’s metaphor for the morality of capitalism, is explored in this text as being far more subtle and intricate than is usually understood, with many British realist fiction writers (Austen, Dickens, Gaskell, Eliot) having absorbed his model of ironic causality in complex societies and turned it to their own purposes.

Literature, Gender, and NationBuilding in Nineteenth-Century Egypt The Life and Works of `AÍsha Taymur Mervat F. Hatem, Professor of Political Science at Howard University, USA.
‘This is an important book. It is an analysis of the novels of the earliest Egyptian novelist and brings out the author’s feminist concerns based on her religious knowledge and shows a distinct Egyptian nationalism as opposed to a prior Ottoman one, and does so long before it was fashionable to do either.’ - Afaf Lutfi al-Sayyid Marsot, Professor of History, University of California and Los Angeles, USA This book examines how the process of nationbuilding in Egypt helped transform Egypt from an Ottoman province to an Arabic speaking national community. Through the life and works of `A’isha Taymur, Hatem gives insight into how literature and changing gender roles contributed to the definition and/or development of a sense of community.

‘This is an exciting and important new work in the field of postcolonial studies, one that is able to offer a significant intervention in ongoing debates around the idea of ‘cosmopolitanism.’ It has an extremely strong sense of the field and the work that has already been done on the topic and a very clear sense of its own relationship to that work.’ - Priyyamvada Gopal, Senior Lecturer in English, University of Cambridge, UK Via readings of novels by J.M.

The Riddles of Harry Potter Secret Passages and Interpretive Quests Shira Wolosky, Professor of English and American Literature, Hebrew University, Israel
‘At last, an excellent book on Harry Potter! Untrammeled, direct, and illuminating, sophisticated without condescension, The Riddles of Harry Potter reminds readers why they liked the Potter saga in the first place...Wolosky has written a work of crisp literary intelligence, marking Rowling’s debts to Augustine, the Gnostic and Patristic traditions, and to contemporary popular culture. An energetic and subtle braid!’ - Jacques Lezra, Professor of Spanish and Comparative Literature, New York University, USA ‘The Riddles of Harry Potter convincingly argues that Rowling’s books are ‘carefully crafted literary works, with many layers of meaning.’ Wolosky is at her best when analyzing the structural devices and rich wordplay employed by Rowling to underpin the psychological development of her characters and to drive forward a plot that is a mixture of detective novel, teenage adventure, fantasy epic, and mythical morality tale.’ - The Chronicle of Higher Education The Riddles of Harry Potter draws readers into the deeper meanings of these phenomenally successful books.

The Courage of the Truth

The Courage of the Truth is the last course that Michel Foucault delivered at the College de France before his death in 1984. In this course, he continues the theme of the previous year’s lectures in exploring the notion of 'truth-telling' in politics to establish a number of ethically irreducible conditions based on courage and conviction.

Michel Foucault, acknowledged as the pre-eminent philosopher of France in the 1970s and 1980s, continues to have enormous impact throughout the world in many disciplines Translated by Graham Burchell
‘This new volume, The Government of Self and Others, shows us how Foucault was conceiving the relation between the self and the others who make up the political, how fearless speech (parrēsia) is at the centre of both, and how parrēsia defines, for Foucault, philosophical action itself.’ - Leonard Lawlor, Sparks Professor of Philosophy, Penn State University, USA An exciting and highly original examination of the practices of truth-telling and speaking out freely (parrēsia) in ancient Greek tragedy and philosophy. Foucault discusses the difficult and changing practices of truth-telling in ancient democracies and tyrannies and offers a new perspective on the specific relationship of philosophy to politics.

Stability without Statehood Lessons from Europe’s History before the Sovereign State Peter Haldén, Researcher, Centre for Nordic Studies, University of Helsinki, Finland
This book reinterprets the EU using classical and early modern republican political theory. Bypassing the nation-state, it presents a new theory of the creation, change and demise of organizations in world politics. It also argues that the state is a problematic solution to “state-failure” and explores alternative republican commonwealths. Contents: Introduction: Through the Shadows of the State / The Fiction of the State as the Good, Natural and the Beautiful / Remedies: The Neglected Heritage of Republicanism / A Long-lived Republic: The Holy Roman Empire 1648-1763 / A Solitary Republic: The United States of America 1776-1865 / A Shielded Republic: The European Union 1957-2010 / Republican Commonwealths versus State-Building / Conclusions June 2011 Hardback

The Limits of Transnationalism in Europe Collective Identities and EU Integration Markus Thiel, Assistant Professor, Department of Politics and International Relations, Florida International University, USA
Through the application of public opinion, interview, and print-media analyses, this book provides evidence that the state of transnational identification among citizens in the EU as a result of post-Maastricht integration measures, such as the completion of the Common Market, the introduction of the Euro, the initiation of the Common Foreign and Security Policy etc. in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Germany had limited effects in the member states to the extent that national political cultures and mass media orientations are compatible with the goals of EU integration. Policy recommendations are derived by reviewing the complex relationship between EU policies and structural factors such as immigration, ageing and the mediatization of politics in which European integration occurs. Contents: A Primer on Transnational Identities / The impact of European Integration on the UK, Ireland and Germany - a historical-institutionalist overview / How do individuals in Europe perceive of European integration? / Large-scale survey Analyses through Eurobarometer / Newspaper Discourses and Public Spheres / What have we learned from this Survey? – A result-oriented Synopsis / Future challenges for transnational identity formation in the EU May 2011 Hardback

Armenian History and the Question of Genocide Michael M. Gunter, Professor of Political Science, Tennessee Tech, USA
An analysis of the Turkish position regarding the Armenian claims of genocide during World War I and the continuing debate over this issue, the author offers an equal examination of each side's historical position. The book asks "what is genocide?" and illustrates that although this is a useful concept to describe such evil events as the Jewish Holocaust in World War II and Rwanda in the 1990s, the term has also been overused, misused, and therefore trivialized by many different groups seeking to demonize their antagonists and win sympathetic approbation for them. The author includes the Armenians in this category because, although as many as 600,000 of them died during World War I, it was neither a premeditated policy perpetrated by the Ottoman Turkish government nor an event unilaterally implemented without cause. Of course, in no way does this excuse the horrible excesses committed by the Turks.

Multinational Enterprises in Latin America since the 1990s
Sovereignty, Police, and Democracy
This book examines the question of democracy in post-revolutionary Mexican society. Each chapter recuperates an event or particular historical sequence that sheds light on the relation between culture and sovereign exceptionality. Each moment or sequence stages a relation to language. In these speech scenes there is a disagreement between social actors (for example, disputes between peasants and intellectuals over words such as democracy, equality, freedom, proletariat, worker, revolution etc.). Democracy in this book is not just a type of Constitution or a form of society that politics affirms on a daily basis. It is the assumption and installation of egalitarian language. Democracy is therefore the momentary interruption or suspension of the police order. Contents: Exceptionality, Autoimmunity, Incalculability / Politics, Equality, Freedom / The Manufactured Image: Melodramatic Consciousness and the Disappearance of the Political / Humanism Begets Good Order: Alfonso Reyes and Police Thought / ‘Under the Paving Stones, the Beach!’: Chance, Passive Decision, Democracy / Absolute Bio-Hostility and Ubiquitous Enmity: The Party of the Poor and the Militarization of the Political May 2011 Hardback

Kurdish Identity, Discourse, and New Media Jaffer Sheyholislami, Assistant Professor, School of Linguistics and Language Studies, Carleton University, Canada
Informed by the interdisciplinary approach of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and theories of identity, nation, and media, the study investigates the ways Kurds, the world's largest stateless nation, use satellite television and Internet to construct their identities. This book examines the complex interrelationships between ethno-national identities, discourses, and new media. Not only offers the first study of discursive constructions of Kurdish identity in the new media, this book also the first CDA informed comparative study of the contents of the two media. The study pushes the boundaries of the growing area of studies of identity, nationalism and transnationalism, discourse studies, minority language, and digital media.

Conversations with Power
One Nation Under Sex
What Great Presidents and Prime Ministers Can Teach Us about Leadership
How the Private Lives of Presidents, First Ladies and Their Lovers Changed the Course of American History
Brian Michael Till, Research Fellow, New America Foundation; Correspondent for The Atlantic, USA
Fresh out of college and just beginning his work as a syndicated columnist and a researcher at the New America Foundation, Brian Till set out to interview the former world leaders he most admired. He hardly expected to get his foot in the door--much less to have revelatory, insightful conversations with so many of them. Here, he distils their collective wisdom into key lessons for aspiring leaders of the future, including the best ways to handle opposition, public opinion, and the information revolution. With a stunning list of interviewees including Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Ehud Barak, Vaclav Havel, and Nobel Laureate Mikhail Gorbachev, these conversations provide an illuminating, entertaining, and uplifting reminder of what is possible when great leaders inspire and the public is engaged.

Marguerite Rigoglioso, Adjunct Instructor, Dominican University of California, USA

Ali Zaida, Assistant Professor; Undergraduate Advisor, Department of Global Studies, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada
This book discloses a largely unnoticed dialogue between Muslim and Western social thought on the search for meaning and transcendence in the human sciences. The disclosure is accomplished by a comparative reading of contemporary Muslim debates on secular knowledge on the one hand, and of a foundational Western debate on the demise of metaphysics in the human sciences on the other hand. The comparative reading is grounded in a dialogical hermeneutic approach; that is, a hermeneutic approach to texts and cultural traditions that draws upon the work of Hans Georg Gadamer and also upon the insights of inter-religious dialogue. Contents: PART I: SOCIAL THEORY AND DIALOGICAL UNDERSTANDING/ Critique and Dialogical Understanding/ PART II: MUSLIM DEBATES ON SOCIAL KNOWLEDGE/ Muslim Reconstructions of Knowledge: the Case of Nasr and al-Faruqi /The Putative Modernity of Ibn Khaldun/PART III: WESTERN DEBATES ON SOCIAL KNOWLEDGE/Dilthey and the Problem of Immanence / Weber: from Nihilism to an Organic Metaphysics May 2011 Hardback

Interpreting Clifford Geertz Cultural Investigation in the Social Sciences Edited by Jeffrey C. Alexander, Professor of Sociology, Philip Smith, Associate Professor of Sociology and Matthew Norton, PhD Candidate, all Yale University, USA
Theorist Clifford Geertz’s influence extends far beyond anthropology. Indeed the case could be made that he has been abandoned by anthropology and that his legacy has been transferred to a more diffuse community of scholars interested in interpretation. The volume reflects the breadth of his influence, looking in a sense at Geertz as a theorist rather than as an anthropologist. To date there has been no impartial, comprehensive, and authoritative work published on this critical figure. Contributors include an interdisciplinary team of leading scholars;investigating;the three core components of contested legacy: theory, method, and writing.

Sync Your Relationship, Save Your Marriage Four Steps to Getting Back on Track Peter Fraenkel, Ph.D. is an internationally known couples' therapist with over 20 years of experience in private practice
'A very timely book on a topic that all couples deal with.' - Howard Markman, Co-director of the Centre for Marital and Family Studies; author of Fighting for Your Marriage ‘Some say sex, some say money, but Peter Fraenkel says time. In this brilliant book.' William Pinsof, President, The Family Institute, Northwestern University, USA Award-winning couples therapist Peter Fraenkel argues that most relationship problems can be traced to partners being out of sync on the powerful but mostly hidden dimension of time.; Differences in daily rhythms, personal pace, punctuality, time perspective, and priorities about how time is allocated can all lead to couple conflict.; Yet the fascinating fact is that these polarizing time differences play a potent role in attracting lovers in the first place. In this trailblazing new book, he draws on his original research to show how a clearer understanding of these forces can improve the health of your relationship and even rescue a failing one.

Queer Voices
First Announcement
Vocality, the Uncanny, and Popular Music Freya Jarman-Ivens, Lecturer in Music, University of Liverpool, UK
This book argues that there are some important implications of the role the voice plays in popular music when thinking about processes of identification. The central thesis is that the voice in popular music is potentially uncanny (Freud’s unheimlich), and that this may invite or guard against identification by the listener.

Reassessing the Theatre of the Absurd Camus, Beckett, Ionesco, Genet, and Pinter Michael Y. Bennett, Assistant Professor of English in Drama, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, USA
Fifty years after the publication of Martin Esslin’s The Theatre of the Absurd, which suggests that “absurd” plays purport the meaninglessness of life, Michael Y. Bennett’s Reassessing the Theatre of the Absurd is a timely reassessment of one of the most important theatre “movements” of the twentieth century. Bennett argues that these “absurd” plays are, instead, ethical texts that suggest how life can be made meaningful. Analyzing the works of five major playwrights/writers of the 1950s, Bennett’s work challenges fifty years of scholarship though his upbeat and hopeful readings. Contents: Introduction: Reassessing the Theatre of the Absurd / ‘The Parable of Estagon’s Struggle with the Boot’ in Waiting for Godot / The Pinteresque Oedipal Household: The Interrogation Scene(s) in The Birthday Party / The Parable of the White Clown: The Use of Ritual in Jean Genet’s The Blacks: A Clown Show / Berenger, The Sisyphean Hero / Conclusion: Theorizing a ‘Female Absurd’ in Beth Henley’s Crimes of the Heart as a Means of Reassessing the Theatre of the Absurd April 2011 Hardback

John Lutterbie, Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Theatre Arts, Stony Brook University, USA
Toward a General Theory of Acting explores the actor’s art through the lens of Dynamic Systems Theory and recent findings in the Cognitive Sciences. An analysis of different theories of acting in the West from Stanislavski to Lecoq is followed by an in depth discussion of technique, improvisation, and creating a score. In the final chapter, the focus shifts to how these three are interwoven when the actor steps in front of an audience, whether performing realist, non-realist, or postdramatic theatre. Far from using the sciences to reduce acting to a formula, Lutterbie celebrates the mystery of the creative process.

This book examines Field Day’s cultural intervention into the Northern Irish ‘Troubles’ through individual readings of the fourteen plays produced by the enterprise.

Community and Identity in the Federal Theatre Project

Theatre and Politics
Elizabeth A. Osborne, Assistant Professor of Theatre Studies, Florida State University, USA
The Federal Theatre Project stands alone as the only national theatre in the history of the United States. This study re-imagines this vital moment in American history, considering the Federal Theatre Project on its own terms – as a “federation of theatres” designed to stimulate new audiences and create locally-relevant theatre during the turbulent 1930s. It integrates a wealth of previously undiscovered archival materials with cultural history, delving into regional activities, as well as tours of refugee camps and Civilian Conservation Corps Divisions. For a brief, exhilarating moment, the Federal Theatre Project created a democratic theatre that staged the American people.

Early Twentieth-Century Frontier Dramas on Broadway Situating the Western Experience in Performing Arts
New in PaperBack
August Wilson and Black Aesthetics Edited by Dana A. Williams, Professor of African American Literature and Sandra G. Shannon, Professor of African American and American Drama, both at Howard University, USA
Richard Wattenberg, Professor of Theatre Arts, Portland State University, USA
Frontier dramas were among the most popular and successful of early-twentieth-century Broadway type plays. The long runs of contemporary dramas not only indicate the popularity of these plays but also tell us that these plays offered views about the frontier that original audiences could and did embrace. By focusing on how these and other plays represent the intersection of period ideas about the nature of the frontier process on the one hand, with prevailing dramatic conventions and theatre production practices, on the other, Wattenberg sets the frontier perspective offered in these theatrical works within the larger context of late nineteenth and early twentieth century American culture. Contents: PART I: THE AXES OF ANALYSIS: FRONTIER WESTERN DISCOURSE AND THEATRE PRACTICE / The Frontier Western Discourse at the Turn of the Nineteenth to the Twentieth Century / The Turn-of-the-Century American Theatre Context / PART II: THE PLAYS / Discipline and Spontaneity: Clyde Fitch’s The Cowboy and the Lady and Augustus Thomas’s Arizona / Drama from Novels: John Ermine of the Yellowstone and The Virginian / Variations on the Frontier Myth: Edward Milton Royle’s The Squaw Man and David Belasco’s The Girl of the Golden West / From Melodrama to Realism: William Vaughn Moody’s The Great Divide and Rachel Crothers’s The Three of Us May 2011 Hardback
