      • Watkins Media Limited

        Watkins Media Ltd. consists of 4 imprints - Watkins (self-help, personal development and mind, body, spirit), Nourish (healthy living and cookery), Angry Robot (science fiction and fantasy) and Repeater (Radical Politics, Fiction and Philosophy). The story of Watkins Publishing dates back to March 1893, when John M. Watkins, a scholar of esotericism, overheard his friend and teacher Madame Blavatsky lamenting the fact that there was nowhere in London to buy books on mysticism, occultism or metaphysics. At that moment Watkins was born, soon to become the home of many of the leading lights of spiritual literature, including Carl Jung, Rudolf Steiner, Alice Bailey and Chögyam Trungpa. Today our passion for vigorous questioning is still resolute, our books have continued to reflect the development of spiritual thinking and new science over the past 120 years. We remain at the cutting edge, committed to publishing books that change lives.

        Abenteuerliche und lustige Graphic Novel rund um ein ganz besonderes Einhorn für alle Comic- und Fantasy-Fans ab 8 Jahren

        by Andi Watson, Andi Watson, Jan Möller

        Bunt illustrierter Comic-Spaß rund um ein ganz besonderes Einhorn. Ein garantiertes Lesevergnügen für alle Fantasy-Fans von 8–11 Jahren! Kess Kleinhorn ist das winzigste, tollpatschigste und unheldenhafteste Einhorn im zauberhaften Königreich Karfunkel. Er passt so gar nicht zu seinen starken, glitzernden Artgenossen, die vor langer Zeit alles Böse aus Karfunkel vertrieben haben. Doch ausgerechnet, als die Einhorntruppe anderswo beschäftigt ist und Kess Kleinhorn allein das Schloss hütet, greift der gemeine Sir Oger das Königreich mit seiner Armee an. Jetzt schlägt Kleinhorns große Stunde – denn ein Reserveheld ist besser als gar keiner! Mit einer bunt zusammengewürfelten Truppe von Außenseitern tritt er der Oger-Invasion entgegen. Kann er allen beweisen, dass man kein großer Kämpfer sein muss, um am Ende als Held dazustehen? Spannend, liebenswert und zum Wiehern komisch: KESS KLEINHORN ist witzig und frech wie „Dog Man“ und dabei so abenteuerlich wie „Der Hobbit“.

        The senses in early modern England, 1558–1660

        by Simon Smith, Jacqueline Watson, Amy Kenny

        Considering a wide range of early modern texts, performances and artworks, the essays in this collection demonstrate how attention to the senses illuminates the literature, art and culture of early modern England. Examining canonical and less familiar literary works alongside early modern texts ranging from medical treatises to conduct manuals via puritan polemic and popular ballads, the collection offers a new view of the senses in early modern England. The volume offers dedicated essays on each of the five senses, each relating works of art to their cultural moments, whilst elsewhere the volume considers the senses collectively in particular cultural contexts. It also pursues the sensory experiences that early modern subjects encountered through the very acts of engaging with texts, performances and artworks. This book will appeal to scholars of early modern literature and culture, to those working in sensory studies, and to anyone interested in the art and life of early modern England.

        Negotiating cultures

        Eugenio Barba and the intercultural debate

        by Maria M. Delgado, Ian Watson, Maggie B. Gale, Peter Lichtenfels

        Eugenio Barba is one of the world's leading theatre artists and theorists working across cultures. Examines three major strands of Barba's work; his research at the International School of Theatre Anthropology, his use of performance as a means of exchange, and his ongoing relationship with Latin America. The artists who write and are interviewed in the book provide an invaluable insight into Barba's work methods, his relationship with performers from different cultures, and the ramifications of his research in a variety of performance forms. Concludes with a dialogue between Barba and Ian Watson. ;

        Tattoos in crime and detective narratives

        Marking and remarking

        by Kate Watson, Katharine Cox

        Tattoos in crime and detective narratives examines representations of the tattoo and tattooing in literature, television and film, from two periods of tattoo renaissance (1851-1914, and c1955 to present). It makes an original contribution to understandings of crime and detective genre and the ways in which tattoos act as a mimetic device that marks and remarks these narratives in complex ways. With a focus on tattooing as a bodily narrative, the book incorporates the critical perspectives of posthumanism, spatiality, postcolonialism, embodiment and gender studies. The grouped essays examine the first tattoo renaissance, the rebirth of the tattoo in contemporary culture through literature, children's literature, film and television. The collection has a broad appeal, and will be of interest to all literature and media scholars, but in particular those with an interest in crime and detective narratives and skin studies.
