March 2004Die Revolte des Körpers
by Alice Miller, Alice Miller
Alice Miller wurde am 12. Januar 1923 in Polen geboren. Sie studierte in Basel Philosophie, Psychologie und Soziologie. Nach der Promotion machte sie in Zürich ihre Ausbildung zur Psychoanalytikerin und übte 20 Jahre lang diesen Beruf aus. 1980 gab sie ihre Praxis und Lehrtätigkeit auf, um zu schreiben. Seitdem veröffentlichte sie 13 Bücher, in denen sie die breite Öffentlichkeit mit den Ergebnissen ihrer Kindheitsforschungen bekannt machte. Sie verstand ihre Suche nach der Realität der Kindheit als einen scharfen Gegensatz zur Psychoanalyse, die in der alten Tradition das Kind beschuldigt und die Eltern schont. Alice Miller ist am 14. April 2010 im Alter von 87 Jahren verstorben. Alice Miller wurde am 12. Januar 1923 in Polen geboren. Sie studierte in Basel Philosophie, Psychologie und Soziologie.

December 2003Evas Erwachen
Über die Auflösung emotionaler Blindheit
by Alice Miller, Alice Miller
In all ihren Büchern seit dem Welterfolg Das Drama des begabten Kindes hat Alice Miller zu zeigen versucht, daß die an Kindern ausgeübte Gewalt irgendwann auf die Gesellschaft zurückschlägt. Die neuesten Entdeckungen über die Entwicklung des menschlichen Gehirns haben ihre analytischen Arbeiten inzwischen nicht nur vollauf bestätigt, sondern sie auch zum Weiterdenken angeregt. Die Erkenntnis, daß unser Körper ein vollständiges Gedächtnis unserer sämtlichen Kindheitserfahrungen enthält, die unser Bewußtsein allerdings leugnet, half ihr, die Dynamik der emotionalen Blindheit zu verstehen und ihre heutigen Vorstellungen über Psychotherapie in Evas Erwachen in einfacher, zugänglicher Form zu erklären.

Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2025England’s military heartland
Preparing for war on Salisbury Plain
by Vron Ware, Antonia Lucia Dawes, Mitra Pariyar, Alice Cree
What is it like to live next door to a British Army base? England's military heartland provides an eye-opening account of the sprawling military presence on Salisbury Plain, drawing on a wide range of voices from both sides of the divide. Targeted for expansion under government plans to reorganise the UK's global defence estate, the Salisbury 'super garrison' offers a unique opportunity to explore the impact of the military footprint in a particular place. But this is no ordinary environment: as well as being the world-famous site of Stonehenge, the grasslands of Salisbury Plain are home to rare plants and wildlife. How does the army take responsibility for conserving this unique landscape as it trains young men and women to use lethal weapons? Are its claims that its presence is a positive for the environment anything more than propaganda? This book investigates these questions against the backdrop of a historic landscape inscribed with the legacy of perpetual war.

Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2024The machinic city
Media, performance and participation
by Marcos P. Dias
As human and machine agency become increasingly intermingled and digital media is overlaid onto the urban landscape, The machinic city argues that performance art can help us to understand contemporary urban living. Dias analyses interventions from performance artists such as Blast Theory, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Rimini Protokoll, which draw from a rich history of avant-garde art movements to create spaces for deliberation and reflection on urban life, and speculation on its future. While cities are increasingly controlled by autonomous processes mediated by technical machines, Dias analyses the performative potential of the aesthetic machine, as it assembles with media, capitalist, human and urban machines. The aesthetic machine of performance art in urban space is examined through its different components - design, city and technology actants. This unveils the unpredictable nature and emerging potential of performance art as it unfolds in the machinic city.

Preparing for war on Salisbury Plain

A considered investigation of a long-standing army base's impact on the British countryside. What is it like to live next door to a British Army base?

The ArtsMay 2009Auto/biography and identity
by Kate Dorney, Maggie B. Gale, Viv Gardner, Maggie B. Gale
This groundbreaking book shows how female performers - one of the first groups of professional women - used and still use autobiography and performance as both a means of expression and control of their private and public selves, the 'face and the mask'. It looks at how a range of women in the theatre - actors, managers, writers and live artists - have done this on the page and on the stage from the late eighteenth-century to the present day, testing the boundaries between gender, theatre and autobiographical form. This paperback edition facilitates connections - between texts and performances, past and present practitioners, professional and private selves, individuals and communities, all of which have in some way renegotiated identity through autobiography and the creative act. 'Auto/biography and identity' is a landmark in theatre history and performance analysis, in gender and cultural theory, and autobiographical studies. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesJanuary 2025Arctic state identity
Geography, history, and geopolitical relations
by Ingrid A. Medby
This book sets out to answer what it means to hold a formal title as one of the eight 'Arctic states'; is there such a thing as an Arctic state identity, and if so, what does this mean for state personnel? It charts the thoughtful reflections and stories of state personnel from three Arctic states: Norway, Iceland, and Canada, alongside analysis of documents and discourses. This book shows how state identities are narrated as both geographical and temporal - understood through environments, territories, pasts and futures - and that any identity is always relational and contextual. As such, demonstrating that to understand Arctic geopolitics we need to pay attention to the people whose job it is to represent the state on a daily basis. And more broadly, it offers a 'peopled' view of geopolitics, introducing the concept and framework of 'state identity'.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2017Martial races
The military, race and masculinity in British imperial culture, 1857–1914
by Heather Streets
This book explores how and why Scottish Highlanders, Punjabi Sikhs, and Nepalese Gurkhas became identified as the British Empire's fiercest, most manly soldiers in nineteenth century discourse. As 'martial races' these men were believed to possess a biological or cultural disposition to the racial and masculine qualities necessary for the arts of war. Because of this, they were used as icons to promote recruitment in British and Indian armies - a phenomenon with important social and political effects in India, in Britain, and in the armies of the Empire. Martial Races bridges regional studies of South Asia and Britain while straddling the fields of racial theory, masculinity, imperialism, identity politics, and military studies. Of particular importance is the way it exposes the historical instability of racial categories based on colour and its insistence that historically specific ideologies of masculinity helped form the logic of imperial defence, thus wedding gender theory with military studies in unique ways. Moreover, Martial Races challenges the marginalisation of the British Army in histories of Victorian popular culture, and demonstrates the army's enduring impact on the regional cultures of the Highlands, the Punjab and Nepal. This unique study will make fascinating reading for higher level students and experts in imperial history, military history and gender history.

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2016The humanitarian-military complex in Afghanistan
by Bertrand Taithe, Eric James, Tim Jacoby
Violent conflict brings together two seemingly disparate groups: humanitarians and soldiers. This mixes and convolutes agendas, blurring lines that are often perceived to be sacrosanct. Delving deeply into the history and reasons of why these two groups work in close proximity, this study provide a unique insight into the history, ethical dilemmas and policy conundrums when aid workers operate close to the military. Using Afghanistan as a case study, analytical rigour, deep primary research and "field" knowledge are combined in an exceptional contribution to this important area. This book gives scholars and practitioners alike a nuanced perspective on the challenges faced by aid workers, military personnel and decision-makers alike in countries affected by violent conflicts, hosting foreign military interventions and receiving international aid. ;
