Vom Einwanderersohn zum Millionär, vom Grafiker zum Künstler, vom schüchternen Studenten zum Star der New Yorker Partyszene – das Leben von Andy Warhol ist eine Erfolgsgeschichte. Zu Recht gilt dieses Genie der Eigenvermarktung als einer der bedeutendsten Pop-Art-Künstler, dessen größtes Kunstwerk er selbst war: Andy Warhol ist Pop, und Pop ist Andy Warhol.

Mit acht Jahren wurde Andy Warhol, der schon immer etwas bleicher aussah als alle anderen, sehr krank. Die lange Zeit im Bett vertrieb er sich mit Comicheften und er begann zu malen, aus Zeitungen schnitt er Fotos von Hollywoodstars und Gebrauchsgegenständen aus. Seine Kunstwerke zeigten häufig die alltäglichsten Dinge. Nicht allen gefiel das. Was für ein Künstler soll das sein, der die Dose einer Tomatensuppe gleich 32-mal auf dieselbe Leinwand malt. Heute ist Andy Warhol der erfolgreichste und bekannteste Pop-Art-Künstler seiner Zeit, weil er aus Alltäglichem Kunst gemacht hat. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

This volume, which explores aspects of the experience of Ireland and Irish people within the British Empire, addresses a central concern of modern Irish scholarship. Much academic writing about Ireland, its history and culture is dominated by the vocabulary of imperialism. Engels described Ireland as England's first colony. Contemporary observers frequently characterise it as having a post-colonial society. Ireland, on the other hand, was also part of the metropolitan core of the Empire and supplied many of its soldiers, settlers and administrators. The paradox that Ireland was both 'imperial' and 'colonial' lies at the heart of this book which includes studies of Irish service in the Empire as well as the impact of imperial concerns in Ireland. Concentrating on the period since the mid-nineteenth century, the scope of the volume is impressively broad. Popular culture, sport and film are investigated, as well as business history and the military and political 'sinews of Empire'. The book will be of particular value to institutions teaching Irish and British history to degree level and the growing number of Irish studies courses being offered in Great Britain and North America.

Sexually transgressive, politically astute and determined to claim educational and employment rights equal to those enjoyed by men, the new woman took centre stage in the cultural landscape of late-Victorian Britain. By comparing the fictional representations with the lived experience of the new woman, Ledger's book makes a major contribution to an understanding of the 'woman question' at the fin de siecle. She alights on such disparate figures as Eleanor Marx, Gertrude Dix, Dracula, Oscar Wilde, Olive Schreiner and Radclyffe Hall. Focusing mainly on the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the book's later chapters project forward into the twentieth century, considering the relationship between new woman fiction and early modernism as well as the socio-sexual inheritance of the 'second generation' new woman writers. ;

Were it not for authoritarian state censorship, Cecilia Bartolomé's name would figure alongside those of her contemporaries Agnès Varda and Claire Denis as a pioneering feminist filmmaker of the twentieth century. With this bold claim, this book seeks both to write the history of Bartolomé's extant filmography, and speculative about censored and un-filmed work, thereby fashioning a new way of writing a feminist creative life in film. The first volume on this director to be written in English, The Cinema of Cecilia Bartolomé is also the first volume on the director published in any language for over twenty years. By focusing on Spanish-language cinema of the 1960s-1990s, the period when feminism, like democracy, was re-born and seemingly consolidated in Spain, the study brings historical depth and transnational reach to current debates in the wake of #MeToo.
