August 1998Tomboy
Roman
by Thomas Meinecke
Thomas Meineckes Roman ist ein bizarres Kabinett der gender troubles. Es treten auf: die »zwangsheterosexuelle« Vivian Atkinson, damit beschäftigt, in ihrer Magisterarbeit die Philosophie der amerikanischen Feministin Judith Butler und die Irrtümer Otto Weiningers über Geschlecht und Charakter in Verbindung zu bringen. Da sind der feministische Gelegenheitsarzthelfer Hans Mühlenkamm, die bisexuelle Tennisspielerin Korinna Kohn und die lesbische Doktorandin Franke Stöver, die mit Vivian Bücher und Platten tauschen. Und da ist Fraukes »phallische Verlobte« Angela, ehemals Angelo, die das katholische Frauenmagazin »Monika« abonniert hat, weil sie »ganz einfach Frau« sein will. In Tomboy geraten die Geschlechterverhältnisse ins Tanzen, die Polarität männlich/weiblich wird zum Schmelzen gebracht, als konstruiert entlarvt und in ein Oszillieren überführt - was das Leben nicht einfacher macht.

Literature & Literary StudiesDecember 2010The Emperor's Favourite
by Siobhan Keenan
The Emperor's Favourite, which appears in print for the first time, is one of the four anonymous seventeenth-century plays bound in a single volume in the library of the Newdigate family of Arbury Hall, Nuneaton. Tentatively attributed to John Newdigate III (1600-1642), the play uses the story of the rise and fall of Crispinus, favourite of the Emperor Nero, to mount a critique of the influence of George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham (1592-1628) at the courts of James I and Charles I. The volume is illustrated with ten color plates from the manuscript and from John Newdigate's 1628 Parliamentary Diary. ;

July 2018White Maze
Du bist längst mittendrin
by Perry, June
*** Eure schöne neue Welt ist tödlich! *** Mit einem Schlag endet Vivians sorgenfreies Leben: Ihre Mutter Sofia wurde ermordet! Die erfolgreiche Game-Entwicklerin stand kurz vor dem Release eines bahnbrechenden Computerspiels. „White Maze“ wird mit neuartigen Lucent-Kontaktlinsen gespielt - dank ihnen erleben die Spieler virtuelle Game-Welten mit allen Sinnen. Aber warum zerstörte Vivians Mutter kurz vor ihrem Tod die Prototypen der Linsen? Zusammen mit dem schulbekannten Hacker Tom will Viv den Mord an Sofia aufklären. Dazu muss Viv selbst Lucent-Linsen einsetzen und tief in die virtuelle Welt eintauchen. Doch dort ist es für den Mörder ein Leichtes, die falsche Realität nach seinen Spielregeln zu manipulieren. Kann Vivian ihren eigenen Gefühlen vertrauen, wenn alles, was sie sieht, hört, riecht und schmeckt, bloße Lüge ist?

Literature & Literary StudiesMay 2016Collections XVII
by Eugene Giddens, Siobhan Keenan
Collections XVII is the latest volume in the Malone Society's pioneering series of editions of miscellaneous documents relating to English theatre and drama before 1642. It is likely to be of special interest not only to early theatre historians but to those working on Tudor and Stuart court and civic culture, manuscript writing, household drama and early modern women's writing, as it publishes new material in each of these fields. The book includes items such as Revels Office accounts, a playscript fragment, entertainments, poems and civic shows. Many of these documents are previously unpublished, and have been freshly edited and transcribed; each has an introduction giving details of its date, authorship and historical importance. The volume will be essential reading for postgraduates and university teachers in early modern drama, theatre history and women's writing. ;

Business, Economics & LawJuly 2010South African economy and policy, 1990-2000
An economy in transition
by Stuart Jones, Robert W. Vivian
The 1990s were the decade of transition from white rule to black rule in South Africa. In the political sphere the transition was dramatic. In the economic sphere less so, yet the effects were and are likely to be far more far reaching. It is the economic impacts which are likely to determine the future of the country. With the exception of the diamond-rich Botswana, all the countries of Africa which underwent the transition from white to black rule experienced economic decline. Is this to be the fate of South Africa? How was and is South Africa's historical role as the world's leading gold producer affected by the transition? Why did some economic policies succeed and others fail? This book, by leading authorities in the field, attempts to answer these and other related questions. ;
