      • Families International

        It began when I left Ghana to study in Marburg, Germany. I entered a classroom of children with developmental concerns and instantly fell in love with them–the passion continues. I’m an indie professional author-publisher of Christian, academic and children’s books. Founder of Families International, Ottawa, Canada. An organization for all families, especially those who have children with developmental concerns. Our vision is to empower these families to believe in and help themselves, and their children. Be passionate partners of their children’s educational systems and working resiliently with special pedagogic and medical teams to support their children to achieve their full potential. We value every child and believe disabilities don’t mean inabilities. These children have educational assets exemplified by my newly released children’s books–Mommie, Snoopy Mr. Crab and Jumbolino The Dancing Clown. Inspired and created from my international work with these children and their families.

        Class, work and whiteness

        Race and settler colonialism in Southern Rhodesia, 1919–79

        by Nicola Ginsburgh

        This book offers the first comprehensive history of white workers from the end of the First World War to Zimbabwean independence in 1980. It reveals how white worker identity was constituted, examines the white labouring class as an ethnically and nationally heterogeneous formation comprised of both men and women, and emphasises the active participation of white workers in the ongoing and contested production of race. White wage labourers' experiences, both as exploited workers and as part of the privileged white minority, offer insight into how race and class co-produced one another and how boundaries fundamental to settler colonialism were regulated and policed. Based on original research conducted in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK, this book offers a unique theoretical synthesis of work on gender, whiteness studies, labour histories, settler colonialism, Marxism, emotions and the New African Economic History.

        Walking in the dark

        James Baldwin, my father and I

        by Douglas Field

        A moving exploration of the life and work of the celebrated American writer, blending biography and memoir with literary criticism. Since James Baldwin's death in 1987, his writing - including The Fire Next Time, one of the manifestoes of the Civil Rights Movement, and Giovanni's Room, a pioneering work of gay fiction - has only grown in relevance. Douglas Field was introduced to Baldwin's essays and novels by his father, who witnessed the writer's debate with William F. Buckley at Cambridge University in 1965. In Walking in the dark, he embarks on a journey to unravel his life-long fascination and to understand why Baldwin continues to enthral us decades after his death. Tracing Baldwin's footsteps in France, the US and Switzerland, and digging into archives, Field paints an intimate portrait of the writer's life and influence. At the same time, he offers a poignant account of coming to terms with his father's Alzheimer's disease. Interweaving Baldwin's writings on family, illness, memory and place, Walking in the dark is an eloquent testament to the enduring power of great literature to illuminate our paths.

        Childhood encounters with history in British culture, 1750–1914

        by Rachel Bryant Davies, Barbara Gribling

        This collection brings together scholars from disciplines including Children's Literature, Classics, and History to develop fresh approaches to children's culture and the uses of the past. It charts the significance of historical episodes and characters during the long nineteenth-century (1750-1914), a critical period in children's culture. Boys and girls across social classes often experienced different pasts simultaneously, for purposes of amusement and instruction. The book highlights an active and shifting market in history for children, and reveals how children were actively involved in consuming and repackaging the past: from playing with historically themed toys and games to performing in plays and pageants. Each chapter reconstructs encounters across different media, uncovering the cultural work done by particular pasts and exposing the key role of playfulness in the British historical imagination.

        An idea for a theatre ecology

        Methods, theories, histories and practices

        by Carl Lavery

        An Idea for a Theatre Ecology is the first book in the discipline of Theatre and Performance Studies to provide a rigorous and coherent theory of the ecology that is immanent to the theatrical medium. Over six clearly written chapters, the book provides a genealogy, outlines a method, provides a lexicon and demonstrates an alternative practice of ecoperformance analysis grounded in the figure of the archipelago. Focusing on Antonin Artaud's theatre of cruelty, the book argues that theatre has no need to provide ecological messages nor to transform itself into a platform for the narration of ecological stories. Instead, more is to be gained, environmentally and politically, by concentrating on the power of images, gestures and voices to create corporeal affects and sensations that implicate the spectators in a terrestrial event.

        Schriften zum Drama

        by Ivan Nagel

        Regisseure, Autoren, Schauspieler. »Wie diese drei miteinander auskommen: die Beziehung zwischen Autor, Regisseur, Schauspieler ist unvermeidlich eine Frage auch der Theorie, nicht nur der herstellenden Praxis«, so Ivan Nagel. Große Aufführungen erweisen sich oft als die tiefsten und überraschendsten Deutungen berühmter »klassischer« Dramen. Die Schriften zum Drama versammeln Ivan Nagels beste Essays und bieten damit einen gelungenen Überblick über das Theaterschaffen in den letzten Jahrzehnten. Nagel nähert sich essayistisch und exemplarisch Dramatikern und Inszenierungen. Er analysiert scharfsinnig Shakespeares "Troilus und Cressida", "Antonius und Cleopatra", "Timon von Athen" in ihrer Beziehung auf Krieg und Frieden, Ost und West, Reichtum und Armut – und er stellt ihnen epochemachende Aufführungen gegenüber wie Fritz Kortners legendäre Inszenierung von "Emilia Galotti" 1970 in Wien, wie Peter Steins Inszenierung von "Torquato Tasso" 1969 in Bremen, die das deutschsprachige Theater nachhaltig verändert haben. Er porträtiert große Autoren wie Elfriede Jelinek und Heiner Müller. Nagel, der seit vielen Jahren aufs Engste mit dem Theater verbunden ist als Kritiker, Dramaturg, Intendant zeigt sich in diesen Texten einmal mehr als großer Kenner und leidenschaftlicher Theatermann.

        Acting and performance in Hitchcock

        by Adrian Garvey, Victoria Lowe

        Hitchcock's professed disdain for actors is belied by the extraordinary range and depth of performances featured in his films. It might even be argued that many stars gave their richest and most complex performances in his work. Hitchcock's films are also imbued with the theme of performance, as when his fugitive men and errant women assume fragile new identities and move between roles. Actors and other performers also often feature as characters. However, the exhaustive academic literature on Hitchcock has to date produced surprisingly little work about acting and performance in his films. The collection includes contributions from a range of leading scholars on Hitchcock, performance, stardom, and British Cinema, including Charles Barr, David Greven, Mark Glancy, Lucy Bolton, Lawrence Napper and Michael Williams, and an interview with leading composers/accompanists Neil Brand and Stephen Horne on scoring performance in Silent Hitchcock.

        Early modern drama and the theatre of war

        Militarism, conflict and disruption in the plays of Shakespeare and his contemporaries

        by Bronwen Price, Hilary Hinds

        This volume explores the disruptive effects of militarism, war and social unrest in early modern drama. Engaging with Simon Barker's seminal work on dramatic representations of war and militarism, contributors highlight what often lies hidden beneath the surface of martial narratives, treating them as formative interventions in contemporary discourses, whether in justifying war, excluding dissident voices or shaping cultural identities. Discussions include new examinations of militarism, the figure of the soldier and early modern theories of war in Shakespearean tragedy, history and comedy, alongside antimasque and dramatic satire by lesser-known playwrights. The essays investigate how ideas of war underpin emerging concepts of gender, leadership, marriage and the family, as well as the continuing mobilisation of Shakespearean drama in the context of modern armed conflict. Together, they offer rich new contributions to the current lively critical debates on this topic.

        Massacres in Early Modern Drama

        by Georgina Lucas

        Massacres in Early Modern Drama analyses the dynamically ambivalent meanings constructed by the language and action of massacre on the early modern stage. Informed by theories drawn from massacre studies, the monograph challenges orthodoxies about senseless violence, illuminates archaic forms of massacres, and attests to their brutally diverse stage representations. Anchored by the contention that the St Bartholomew's Day Massacre in Paris (1572) was instrumental to early modern understandings of massacre, the book uses this atrocity, and its most famous dramatic depiction - Christopher Marlowe's The Massacre at Paris - as a hook to explore larger concerns about massacre in plays by Robert Greene, George Chapman, John Fletcher, and William Shakespeare. Thus, Massacres in Early Modern Drama considers how early modern drama forms part of a continual cultural process of trying to piece together the contentious and traumatic phenomenon of massacre.

        Slavery, commerce and culture in the British Atlantic world

        by Katie Donington

        Moving between Britain and Jamaica The bonds of family reconstructs the world of commerce, consumption and cultivation sustained through an extended engagement with the business of slavery. Transatlantic slavery was both shaping of and shaped by the dynamic networks of family that established Britain's Caribbean empire. Tracing the activities of a single extended family - the Hibberts - this book explores how slavery impacted on the social, cultural, economic and political landscape of Britain. It is a history of trade, colonisation, enrichment and the tangled web of relations that gave meaning to the transatlantic world. The Hibberts's trans-generational story imbricates the personal and the political, the private and the public, the local and the global. It is both the intimate narrative of a family and an analytical frame through which to explore Britain's history and legacies of slavery.

        Giotto Masaccio Leonardo

        by Ivan Nagel

        Über Jahrhunderte, von 1300 bis 1800, war die Leitgattung der europäischen Malerei das Historiengemälde. Götter, Helden, Menschen aus heidnischer, jüdischer, christlicher Sage wurden ins Bild geholt. Ivan Nagel zeigt den Aufstieg des neuen Historienbildes von 1300 bis 1500. In einem weit verbreiteten Vorurteil sah man Giottos, Masaccios und Leonardos Werke als »erzählende Bilder«. Ivan Nagel zeigt indessen, daß sie ihr präsentisches Aufleuchten einer Handlung nicht mit dem Epos oder dem Roman teilen, sondern mit dem Drama, das sie, lange vor dem Theater, erneuern. Der Autor zeigt, wie Giotto und Dante gemeinsam die Kunst als sichtbares Sprechen, »visibile parlare«, als Dialog der Gesten, Mienen und Blicke entdecken; wie Giotto seinen lebenslangen Helden Franz von Assis erst als aufrührerischen Lebensreformer, dann als kanonisierten Wundertäter, schließlich als modernen Menschen autonomer Entschlüsse in diesen Bilddialogen spiegelt. Eine weitere Untersuchung gilt der (bislang oft ignorierten) Freundschaft zwischen Masaccio und Alberti. In neuem Licht erscheint »Filippos Kreis«, drei Bund unverheirateter Männer um den wegweisenden Baumeister Brunelleschi, zu dem außer Masaccio und Alberti der Bildhauer Donatello gehörte. Der Kreis wird in den homoerotischen Sitten von Florenz verortet. Sein neuer Blick ermöglichte eine Renaissance des in Freiheit handelnden Männerkörpers, Liebe des Menschen zum Menschen, behielt unterdessen die Entrechtung der Frau als Schandfleck. Zum Abschluß deutet Ivan Nagel die maßgebenden Bilder der Neuen Historie: Giottos "Navicella", Masaccios "Zinsgroschen" und Leonardos »Abendmahl«.
