        Soliman and Perseda, by Thomas Kyd

        by Lukas Erne

        Soliman and Perseda, written c. 1588 and first published in 1592 or 1593, is a late Elizabethan romantic tragedy by Thomas Kyd, author of The Spanish Tragedy. It dramatises the triangular relationship of the Turkish emperor Soliman, his captive Perseda and her beloved Erastus, and the fortunes of the comic servant Piston and the braggart knight Basilisco, against the fictionalised backdrop of the Turkish invasion of Rhodes in the early sixteenth century. The introduction to this facsimile edition contains the fullest analysis of the text to date. It also provides an account of the play's editorial history, a detailed analysis of its original printing, and lists of all erroneous readings in the first quarto, together with significant differences between the first and second quartos. This edition provides the best access we have to an important play by one of Shakespeare's leading early contemporaries. ;

        Colouring the Caribbean

        Race and the art of Agostino Brunias

        by Mia L. Bagneris

        Colouring the Caribbean offers the first comprehensive study of Agostino Brunias's intriguing pictures of colonial West Indians of colour - so called 'Red' and 'Black' Caribs, dark-skinned Africans and Afro-Creoles, and people of mixed race - made for colonial officials and plantocratic elites during the late-eighteenth century. Although Brunias's paintings have often been understood as straightforward documents of visual ethnography that functioned as field guides for reading race, this book investigates how the images both reflected and refracted ideas about race commonly held by eighteenth-century Britons, helping to construct racial categories while simultaneously exposing their constructedness and underscoring their contradictions. The book offers provocative new insights about Brunias's work gleaned from a broad survey of his paintings, many of which are reproduced here for the first time.

        Caribbean eco-aesthetics

        Strategies of survival through contemporary art

        by Kate Keohane, Daniella Rose King, Giulia Smith

        This edited volume reframes the Caribbean as a paradigm of ecological resilience and creativity by bringing together the voices of contemporary artists and scholars who are at the forefront of environmental activism in the region and across its diasporas. While dominant narratives percolating from the environmental sciences to the mainstream press present the Caribbean as a frontier of planetary disaster, the contributors to this volume show how the region offers radical models for overcoming the environmental challenges of the present. At the heart of this argument lies the history of the Caribbean as a centre for grassroots forms of anti-colonial and anti-capitalist resistance founded upon nature-centred cosmologies and practices. Caribbean Eco-Aesthetics shows how contemporary artists are mobilising this radical heritage in a bid to unlock alternative planetary futures.

        Imagining Caribbean womanhood

        Race, nation and beauty competitions, 1929–70

        by Pamela Sharpe, Rochelle Rowe, Penny Summerfield, Lynn Abrams, Cordelia Beattie

        Over fifty years after Jamaican and Trinidadian independence, Imagining Caribbean womanhood examines the links between beauty and politics in the Anglophone Caribbean, providing a first cultural history of Caribbean beauty competitions, spanning from Kingston to London. It traces the origins and transformation of female beauty contests in the British Caribbean from 1929 to 1970, through the development of cultural nationalism, race-conscious politics and decolonisation. The beauty contest, a seemingly marginal phenomenon, is used to illuminate the persistence of racial supremacy, the advance of consumer culture and the negotiation of race and nation through the idealised performance of cultured, modern beauty. Modern Caribbean femininity was intended to be politically functional but also commercially viable and subtly eroticised.

        Roland Barthes

        Die Biographie

        by Tiphaine Samoyault, Maria Hoffmann-Dartevelle, Lis Künzli

        Roland Barthes hat die Welt in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts das Lesen gelehrt. Er hat vorgeführt, wie die alltäglichen Dinge, die Mythen des Alltags, zu verstehen sind; er hat das Alphabet der Sprache der Liebe vorbuchstabiert; er hat die Lust am Text propagiert; er hat die Stellung des Autors untergraben − und in seinem letzten Seminar, der »Vorbereitung des Romans«, gestanden, er hätte sich gewünscht, Romancier zu werden. 1915 in Cherbourg geboren, geht er in den Dreißiger Jahren zum Studium nach Paris. Hier sammelt er erst politische Erfahrung, entdeckt die Freundschaft und seine Homosexualität − und am Ende des Jahrzehnts befällt ihn eine Tuberkulose, die in ihn zu langjährigen Sanatoriumsaufenthalten zwingt. Dieser Abbruch einer normalen akademischen Karriere erklärt das späte Erscheinen seines Buches, Am »Nullpunkt der Literatur« (1957) und ist zugleich verantwortlich für seine Schreib- und Forscherhaltung: die überkommenen unverrückbaren universitären Wahrheiten enthüllt er als eine Form des Nicht-Wissens, an deren Stelle er eine neue Wissensform entfaltet. Die Schriftstellerin und Literaturhistorikerin Tiphaine Samoyault entwirft unter Rückgriff auf bisher unzugängliche persönliche Dokumente von Roland Barthes die erste umfassende, alle Aspekte von Werk und Leben ausleuchtende, Biographie. Als Wissenschaftlerin und Literatin liest sie die Person Roland Barthes und dessen Schreiben - und damit die Bedeutung dieses Autors für unsere Zeit.

        Ireland, slavery and the Caribbean

        Interdisciplinary perspectives

        by Finola O'Kane, Ciarán O'Neill

        Ireland, slavery and the Caribbean is a complex and ground-breaking collection of essays. Grounded in history, it integrates perspectives from art historians, architectural and landscape historians, and literary scholars to produce a genuinely interdisciplinary collection that spans from 1620-1830: the high point of European colonialism. By exploring imperial, national and familial relationships from their building blocks of plantation, migration, property and trade, it finds new ways to re-create and question how slavery made the Atlantic world.

        Warum ich Roland Barthes liebe

        by Alain Robbe-Grillet, Olivier Corpet, Philipp Rang

        Fast dreißig Jahre lang bestand die Freundschaft zwischen Alain Robbe-Grillet und Roland Barthes. Sie begann 1953 mit einem Brief, in dem Barthes den Roman »Die Radiergummis« als »gelungen«, weil »avantgardistisch« charakterisierte. Im Laufe der folgenden Jahrzehnte entwickelte sich eine enge Beziehung zwischen dem Romancier, der in dem Theoretiker den Schriftsteller lobte, und dem Semiologen, der im Romanautor den praktizierenden Philosophen der »écriture« schätzte. Die hier zum ersten Mal publizierten Stellungnahmen von Alain Robbe-Grillet zu Roland Barthes zeigen das Spannungsfeld zwischen der Lust am Text und der Lust am Spiel mit der Fiktion, in dem sich die französische Literatur in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts entwickelte.

        From Jack Tar to Union Jack

        Representing naval manhood in the British Empire, 1870–1918

        by Mary A. Conley

        Jack Tar to Union Jack examines the intersection between empire, navy, and manhood in British society from 1870 to 1918. Through analysis of sources that include courts-martial cases, sailors' own writings, and the HMS Pinafore, Conley charts new depictions of naval manhood during the Age of Empire, a period which witnessed the radical transformation of the navy, the intensification of imperial competition, the democratisation of British society, and the advent of mass culture. Jack Tar to Union Jack argues that popular representations of naval men increasingly reflected and informed imperial masculine ideals in Victorian and Edwardian Britain. Conley shows how the British Bluejacket as both patriotic defender and dutiful husband and father stood in sharp contrast to the stereotypic image of the brave but bawdy tar of the Georgian navy. This book will be essential reading for students of British imperial history, naval and military history, and gender studies.

        Jack Clayton

        by Neil Sinyard

        In François Truffaut's opinion The Innocents was 'the best English film after Hitchcock goes to America'. Tennessee Williams said of The Great Gatsby: 'a film whose artistry even surpassed the original novel'. The maker of both films was Jack Clayton, one of the finest English directors of the post-war era and perhaps best remembered for the trail-blazing Room at the Top which brought a new sexual frankness and social realism to the British screen. This is the first full-length critical study of Clayton's work. The author has been able to consult and quote from the director's own private papers which illuminate Clayton's creative practices and artistic intentions. In addition to fresh analyses of the individual films, the book contains new material on Clayton's many unrealised projects and valuably includes his previously unpublished short story 'The Enchantment' - as poignant and revealing as the films themselves. This is a personal and fascinating account of the career and achievement of an important, much-loved director that should appeal to students and film enthusiasts.

        Joe Biden's America

        Introduction to a divided country

        by Roland Benedikter

        — "A precise, analytical insight into the phenomenon Trump." (Anton Pelinka, Central European University Budapest) — "An introduction to the contemporary US." (Heinrich Neisser, Jean Monnet Chair of European Integration, University of Innsbruck) — "Refreshingly different." (Herbert Dorfmann, Member of the European Parliament) Joe Biden's America is deeply divided. Donald Trump's term in office made many problems of modern US society visible, which Biden now has to solve. What do American politics look like under Joe Biden? What legacy did Donald Trump leave behind, and what kind of impact does it have? How can the deeper causes, factors and drivers of current US developments be put in a historical context? Roland Benedikter provides a thorough insight into a complex country. In a compact and comprehensible way, he explains the background, challenges and perspectives of the Biden era, while also providing an overview of the current state of US society and culture in general. His analysis is suitable for teaching, decision-makers and civil society as an introduction to today's USA.

        Migration, solidarity and resistance in Greece

        by Ludek Stavinoha

        Unruly Subjects takes readers to the epicentre of Europe's intensifying border struggles-the Aegean islands in Greece, where thousands of 'undesirable' migrants have been warehoused and violently abandoned in EU-funded refugee camps. Drawing on nearly a decade of research, Ludek Stavinoha reveals the subterranean corners in which resistance brews and solidarity takes hold, tracing migrants' everyday struggles for dignity and their rights, alongside grassroots volunteers who have built vital infrastructures of support. At the heart of the book are the creative, if precarious and ambivalent, solidarities forged between volunteers and refugees, citizens and non-citizens, as they unsettle racialised boundaries and logics of control, in defiance of state-sanctioned violence, criminalisation, and neglect. Urgent and compelling, Unruly Subjects illuminates how people navigate and subvert Europe's increasingly hostile border regime, and the alternative imaginaries of more just futures their struggles embody.

        Proust

        Aufsätze und Notizen | Das Dokument einer bedeutenden literarischen Wahlverwandtschaft

        by Roland Barthes, Horst Brühmann

        Spricht Barthes von Proust, spricht er meistens von sich selbst. Barthes hat nicht das eine, große Proust-Werk geschrieben, aber sich immer wieder mit seinem Alter Ego auseinandergesetzt. Dieser Band versammelt die wichtigsten Texte von Roland Barthes über Marcel Proust: Zeitschriftenbeiträge, Vorlesungen und Vorlesungsnotizen und eine Auswahl aus Barthes’ fast 3000 hinterlassenen Karteikarten zu Proust. Barthes legt Spuren, öffnet Ausblicke, macht, in der Trauer über den Tod seiner Mutter, Pläne, eine ihrem Andenken gewidmete Recherche, seine eigene »Vita nova«, zu schreiben – was womöglich nur sein früher Tod im März 1980 verhindert hat. Hier erstmals zugänglich gemacht ist ebenfalls die Transkription einer Radiosendung von France Culture aus den 70er Jahren, Spaziergänge mit Roland Barthes auf den Spuren von Marcel Proust in Paris. »Ich begreife, daß das Werk von Proust, zumindest für mich, das Referenzwerk ist, die allgemeine Mathesis, das Mandala der gesamten literarischen Kosmogonie, wie es die Briefe der Mme de Sévigné für die Großmutter des Erzählers, die Ritterromane für Don Quijote waren.« (Roland Barthes) Das Dokument einer bedeutenden literarischen Wahlverwandtschaft, ebenso erhellend für das Werk Prousts wie für das von Roland Barthes.
