Medieval and early modern texts reflect a fascination with material objects, from ancient heirlooms to ingenious automata. Often imbued with power or beauty, these objects carry an uncanny sense of otherness, their mysterious origins evoking wonder and suggesting temporal and spatial distance. Acting as repositories of temporal alterity, such artefacts bridge the past and present in profound ways. This volume, featuring contributions from experts in literature and art history, explores how texts from these periods use material objects to engage with temporal otherness. From everyday items to marvellous creations, objects challenge distinctions between human and material, natural and cultural. Whether examining the hybrid status of Hector's body in Lydgate's Troy Book or the temporal agency of humble bubbles, the chapters illuminate the vibrant networks connecting people and objects. By highlighting the 'hybridity' of matter, the book offers fresh insights into Bruno Latour's critique of nature-culture divides.
This collection of essays focuses attention on the broad issue of Renaissance textuality. It explores such topics as the position of the reader relative to the text; the impact of editorial strategies and modes of presentation on our understanding of the text; the complexities of extended textual histories; and the relevance of gender to the process of textual retrieval and preservation. The essays, whilst informed by contemporary theory, are not dominated by a single programmatic viewpoint. Reflecting the multiplicitous nature of Renaissance textuality, the collection provides space for a variety of different positions and lines of analysis and enquiry. The Renaissance text will be of interest to those with specialist concerns in editing, textuality and bibliography, and will also be of interest to those more generally concerned with Renaissance literature or with textual or literary history. ;
This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons () open access license. Beyond text? Critical practices and sensory anthropology is about the relationship between anthropological understandings of the world, sensory perception and aesthetic practices. It suggests that if different sensory experiences embody and facilitate different kinds of knowledge, then we need to develop new methods and more creative forms of representation that are not based solely around text or on correspondence theories of truth. The volume brings together leading figures in anthropology, visual and sound studies to explore how knowledge, sensation and embodied experiences can be researched and represented by combining different visual, aural and textual forms which it demonstrates through an accompanying DVD. The book and DVD make an argument for a necessary, critical development in anthropological ways of knowing that take place not merely at the level of theory and representation but also through innovative fieldwork methods and media practices.
This textbook for professional leaders and ward managers in nursing shows how nurses can use nursing process, ethical decision-making, patient education, and discharge management to act in a way that is grounded in nursing theory and how leaders can challenge, encourage, and value their staff.
Während neueste Untersuchungen im 15./16. Jahrhundert einen Wandel der Geschlechterbeziehungen erkannten und ihn durch sozial- und mentalitätsgeschichtliche Veränderungen zu erklären suchten, halten die Autoren der in diesem Band enthaltenen Texte in erster Linie nicht nach historischen Veränderungen und epochengeschichtlichen Zäsuren Ausschau, sondern erproben die Tragfähigkeit einer textwissenschaftlichen Analyse der Kategorie Geschlecht. Unterschiede in den Geschlechterprojektionen werden nicht vorschnell auf außertextuelle Erklärungsmomente zurückgeführt, sondern auf literarische Faktoren und rhetorische Strategien, auf wechselnde Kommunikationssituationen und Gebrauchsfunktionen.
Martha Gellhorn was the doyenne of twentieth century war correspondence. Opinionated, honest and unafraid, she covered conflicts from the Spanish Civil War to Reagan's wars in Central America in the 1980s. Martha Gellhorn: the war writer in the field and in the text is the first critical study of her Second World War fiction and journalism. Often overlooked in accounts of war literature is the writer's precise position in relation to battle and his or her resultant standing in the text. Kate McLoughlin traces Gellhorn's daring attempts to access the war zone and her constructions of the woman war correspondent in her despatches, novels, short stories and play. Drawing on unpublished letters, close attention is given to Gellhorn's rivalry with Ernest Hemingway (the two were married from 1940 to 1945) over reaching the Normandy beaches on D-Day and its textual outcome in the pages of Collier's magazine. McLoughlin goes on to examine Gellhorn's increasingly negative portrayals of the glamorous female war reporter and to suggests why such disillusionment might have set in. ;
»Meinecke baute einen Plattenspieler auf und legte zum Auftakt seiner Vorlesungsreihe den Song »False Start« von Bikini Kill auf. Anschließend zitierte er Texte über seinen Roman »Tomboy«. Konsequenter kann man die Erwartungen, die mit der Poetikdozentur verbunden sind, nicht enttäuschen. Ihre Spielregeln hat der Autor zwar mit der Annahme der Dozentur anerkannt. Allerdings steht er in der Tradition der Dekonstruktion: Es gilt, »mit« den Spielregeln »gegen« diese zu spielen. Meinecke macht sich in seiner Vorlesung zugleich zur erzählten Figur. Mit seiner Aneinanderreihung von Zitaten hat er eine brillante Performance zur Dekonstruktion des Autorbegriffs geliefert. Wer zwischen den Zeilen lesen kann, wird in den vorgetragenen Zitaten zugleich eine präzise Beschreibung von Meineckes Erzählweise erkannt haben.« Jesko Bender in der »Jungle World«
