        The Renaissance text

        Theory, editing, textuality

        by Andrew Murphy

        This collection of essays focuses attention on the broad issue of Renaissance textuality. It explores such topics as the position of the reader relative to the text; the impact of editorial strategies and modes of presentation on our understanding of the text; the complexities of extended textual histories; and the relevance of gender to the process of textual retrieval and preservation. The essays, whilst informed by contemporary theory, are not dominated by a single programmatic viewpoint. Reflecting the multiplicitous nature of Renaissance textuality, the collection provides space for a variety of different positions and lines of analysis and enquiry. The Renaissance text will be of interest to those with specialist concerns in editing, textuality and bibliography, and will also be of interest to those more generally concerned with Renaissance literature or with textual or literary history. ;

        Cue and Cut

        A practical approach to working in multi-camera studios

        by Roger Singleton-Turner

        Cue & Cut is a 'practical approach to working in television studios' for anyone who might want to work in that medium. It's full of useful information about kit, and how you would use it to create multi-camera content. Written by a multi-camera producer-director with years of drama and teaching experience, it presents both a way of handling studios and a source of information about how things have changed from the days of monochrome to HD tapeless modes - with some thoughts on 3D HDTV The book is firmly based in first-hand teaching experience and experience of producing, direction, floor managing (and so on) and on working with top flight Actors, Writers, Musicians, Designers of all disciplines and Sound and Camera crews, both at the BBC and in ITV. The book will certainly cover multi-camera aspects of Undergraduate, HND and B.Tech courses and should be useful to those on short courses, whether practical or post-graduate.

        Why headless males are better lovers

        Sex and reproduction in the animal kingdom

        by Monika Niehaus / Michael Wink

        "Sex sells" also applies to evolution. Without sex, there is no genetic variation, and without genetic variation, there is no natural selection and evolution. When it comes to sex and reproduction, all animals have things in common, but there are also many variations. In this game of the sexes, everything revolves around the conflicts of interest between females and males, the diversity of mating systems, matriarchal and patriarchal communities and the securing of paternity, whether through beauty, song and dance or violence.

        The Tragedy of Antigone, The Theban Princesse

        by Thomas May

        by Edited by Matteo Pangallo. Series edited by Paul Dean

        Thomas May's The Tragedy of Antigone (1631), edited by Matteo Pangallo, is the first English treatment of the story made famous by Sophocles. This edition contains a facsimile of the copy held at the Beinecke Library of Yale University, making the play commercially available for the first time since its original publication. The extensive introduction discusses, among other things, the ownership history of existing copies and their marginal annotations, and of the play's topical political implications in the light of May's wavering between royalist and republican sympathies. Writing during the contentious early years of Charles I's reign, May used Sophocles' Antigone to explore the problems of just rule and justified rebellion. He also went beyond the scope of the original, adding content from a wide range of other classical and contemporary plays, poems and other sources, including Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth. This volume will be essential reading for advanced students, researchers and teachers of early English drama and seventeenth-century political history.

        Beyond text?

        Critical practices and sensory anthropology

        by Rupert Cox, Andrew Irving, Christopher Wright

        This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons () open access license. Beyond text? Critical practices and sensory anthropology is about the relationship between anthropological understandings of the world, sensory perception and aesthetic practices. It suggests that if different sensory experiences embody and facilitate different kinds of knowledge, then we need to develop new methods and more creative forms of representation that are not based solely around text or on correspondence theories of truth. The volume brings together leading figures in anthropology, visual and sound studies to explore how knowledge, sensation and embodied experiences can be researched and represented by combining different visual, aural and textual forms which it demonstrates through an accompanying DVD. The book and DVD make an argument for a necessary, critical development in anthropological ways of knowing that take place not merely at the level of theory and representation but also through innovative fieldwork methods and media practices.

        Salzburger Bachmann Edition

        Anrufung des Großen Bären | Ein Meilenstein der deutschsprachigen Lyrik nach 1945 | Erstmals mit ausführlichem Kommentar

        by Ingeborg Bachmann, Luigi Reitani

        Ingeborg Bachmanns zweite Lyriksammlung, Anrufung des Großen Bären (1956), enthält Verse, die wegen ihrer hohen Einprägsamkeit, der Kühnheit ihrer Metaphern und ihres zeitkritischen, ethisch motivierten Sprachgestus schon bei Erscheinen Aufsehen erregten und bald kanonisiert wurden. Es sind Gedichte, die radikale Fragen stellen und Themen wie Liebe, Selbstbestimmung, Verantwortung, Utopie mit scharfer denkerischer Freiheit in mitreißenden Klangbildern entfalten. Die neue Edition macht die raffiniert durchkomponierte Struktur der Sammlung sichtbar. Zum ersten Mal werden die Gedichte unter Berücksichtigung des Nachlasses ausführlich kommentiert und im kulturgeschichtlichen Diskurs der Zeit verortet. Das weitgespannte Netz von intertextuellen Bezügen, der Dialog mit Paul Celan, der philosophische Horizont, die Vielfalt an metrischen Formen, die verwickelte Editionsgeschichte und die kontroverse Rezeption werden exemplarisch dargestellt, so dass die Verse in ihrer unerschöpflichen Vitalität und Ausstrahlungskraft neu beleuchtet werden. Die Salzburger Bachmann Edition präsentiert die Prosa, Gedichte und Essays, Hörspiele, Libretti sowie die Korrespondenzen Ingeborg Bachmanns in Form einer integrierten Ausgabe. Die Texte werden ergänzt durch eingehende Kommentare auf dem gegenwärtigen Stand der Forschung, die Bachmanns Werk neu erschließen. Neben den zu Lebzeiten erschienenen Werken werden auch unbekannte nachgelassene Texte zugänglich gemacht.
