The Provisional IRAFrom Insurrection to ParliamentTommy McKearney was a senior member of the Provisional IRA in the early 1970s until his arrest in 1977. Sentenced to life imprisonment, he served 16 years during which time he participated in the 1980 hunger strike in the Maze. He is now a freelance journalist and an organiser with the Independent Workers Union. Where to next for the IRA? This engaging history analyses the reasons behind the formation of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), and surveys its activity and transformation through the years to the present day. Tommy McKearney, a former IRA member who played an important role in the early stages of the insurgency, explores the makeup and strategy of the IRA since its creation. He challenges the misconception that the Provisional IRA was only ever interested in uniting Ireland, arguing that opposition to the old Northern Ireland state was a major dynamic for the IRA’s armed campaign. He also argues that its inability to develop a clear socialist programme has limited its effectiveness and reach. The Provisional IRA provides a fascinating insight into the dynamics of this modern resistance movement and considers its prospects for the future.

History

Deep Green ResistanceActivist, philosopher, teacher, and leading voice of uncompromising dissent, Derrick Jensen holds degrees in creative writing and mineral engineering physics. His books include What We Leave Behind and As the World Burns. Lierre Keith is a writer, small farmer, and radical feminist activist, and the author of two novels.For years, Derrick Jensen has asked his audiences, “Do you think this culture will undergo a voluntary transformation to a sane and sustainable way of life?” No one ever says yes. Deep Green Resistance starts where the environmental movement leaves off: industrial civilization is incompatible with life. Technology can’t fix it, and shopping - no matter how green - won’t stop it. To save this planet, we need a serious resistance movement that can bring down the industrial economy. Deep Green Resistance evaluates strategic options for resistance, from nonviolence to guerrilla warfare, and the conditions required for those options to be successful. It provides an exploration of organizational structures, recruitment, security, and target selection for both aboveground and underground action. It also discusses a culture of resistance and the crucial support role that it can play. Deep Green Resistance is a plan of action for anyone determined to fight for this planet - and win.

Bad NewsHow America’s Business Press Missed the Story of the CenturyAnya Schiffrin is the director of the media and communications program at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs. She spent ten years working overseas as a journalist in Europe and Asia. She lives in New York City.As the recent U.S. financial crisis unfolded, journalists struggled to keep up with the biggest story of the century. After the markets unraveled and the economy began spiraling downward, reporters raced to cover an unfamiliar cast of characters and an alphabet soup of derivatives and toxic financial instruments. And in this midst of this collapse, ironically, the business of journalism itself hit the rocks, as the mainstream media grappled with collapsing ad revenues and falls in circulation. Did the press fail in its critical role as it gave into the irrational exuberance that fed the bubble itself? How do we explain these failures? The role of the business press in the current crisis strikes at the heart of the heated debate about the media’s role as guardians of our democratic society. With contributions - all but one original - from leading journalists and academics at the forefront of this issue, Bad News is the first attempt to navigate through a controversy that will be studied for decades to come.

Delivering DevelopmentGlobalization’s Shoreline and the Road to a Sustainable FutureEdward R. Carr, University of South Carolina.Edward Carr calls into question the very universal, unquestioned assumptions about globalization, development, and environmental change that undergird much of development and economic policy. Here he demonstrates how commonly held beliefs about globalization and development have fail the global poor. Over his 13 years of working along what he calls "globalization's shoreline", a world region buffeted by the economic, political, and environmental decisions of those living in wealthier places, Carr has concluded that most experts misunderstand what they are trying to fix, and cannot tell if they are fixing it.

Magical MarxismSubversive Politics and the ImaginationAndy Merrifield is an independent scholar based in France.Following his hugely popular book, The Wisdom of Donkeys, Andy Merrifield breathes new life into the Marxist tradition. Magical Marxism demands something more of traditional Marxism - something more interesting and liberating. It asks that we imagine a Marxism that moves beyond debates about class, the role of the state and the dictatorship of the proletariat. In escaping the formalist straitjacket of orthodox Marxist critique, Merrifield argues for a reconsideration of Marxism and its potential, applying previously unexplored approaches to Marxist thinking that will reveal vital new modes of political activism and debate.

Israeli RejectionismThe Secret History of the Middle East Peace ProcessDaphna Levit has edited and contributed to numerous books on Middle Eastern Politics; and Zalman Amit, Concordia University, Canada.This book delves deep into the ‘peace process’ to find out why so little progress has been made on the key issues of the Palestine-Israel conflict. Zalman Amit and Daphna Levit find overwhelming evidence of Israeli rejectionism as the main cause for the failure of peace. The motivations behind this rejectionist position have changed, as have the circumstances of the conflict, but the conclusion has remained consistent - peace has not been in the interest of the state of Israel.

An Army of PhantomsAmerican Movies and the Making of the Cold WarJ. Hoberman is the senior film critic for the Village Voice, where he has worked for more than 30 years.The years between 1946 and 1956 brought U.S. dominance over Europe and a new war in Asia, as well as the birth of the civil rights movement and the stirrings of a new youth culture. The period saw the movie industry purged of its political left while the rise of ideological action hero John Wayne came to dominate theaters. Analyzing movies and media events, Hoberman has organized a pageant of cavalry Westerns, apocalyptic sci-fi flicks, and biblical spectaculars wherein atomic tests are shown on live TV, God talks on the radio, and Joe McCarthy is bracketed with Marilyn Monroe.

Bonds of BloodGender, Lifecycle, and Sacrifice in Aztec CultureCaroline Dodds Pennock, University of Leicester, UK.Reinvesting the Aztecs with a humanity frequently denied to them, Caroline Dodds Pennock integrates a fresh interpretation of gender with an innovative study of the everyday life of the Aztecs. This was a culture of contradictions and complications, but in amongst the grand ritual we can find the personal and private, the minutiae of life which make the world of these extraordinary people instantly familiar. Despite their violent bloodshed, the Aztecs were a compassionate and expressive people who lived and worked in cooperative gendered partnership.



CiceroPolitics and Persuasion in Ancient RomeDr Kathryn Tempest, Roehampton University.On the back of his natural talent for oratory, Cicero set out on the path to a glorious reputation - his earliest speeches brought the name of Cicero out of the shadows and hurled him into the spotlight. Following the Civil War, and with renewed hopes for the restoration of the Roman Republic, Cicero launched a fierce attack on Mark Antony by delivering a series of speeches that cannot be matched for their vigour. It was these speeches that would be the cause of Cicero’s death, and his death was to be as dramatic as his life. Kathryn Tempest’s life of Cicero and his times is as engaging as it is informative.

Agnes Strickland’s Lives of the Queens of EnglandAntonia Fraser is an award-winning historian and biographer.Agnes Strickland’s Lives of the Queens of England (1840-8) marked a new era in the writing of English history by women. ‘Facts not opinions’ was the watchword of these historical biographies, which were based on pioneering manuscript research. Yet, as Antonia Fraser explains, the title-page attributing the Lives to Agnes Strickland masked a work of joint authorship. Agnes may have been the public figurehead of these works of historical biography, but her sister Elizabeth, who lived in seclusion, was Agnes’s collaborator, undertaking much of the writing and research.

Representing CapitalA Reading of Volume OneFredric Jameson, Duke University.Representing Capital, Fredric Jameson’s first book-length engagement with Marx’s magnum opus, is a unique work of scholarship that records the progression of Marx’s thought as if it were a musical score. Marx’s fundamental concepts are not presented philosophically, or in social-scientific terms, but rather as a series of figures produced by the development of the text. Jameson grasps Marx’s work as a representational problem and an experiment in constructing the figure or model of the inexpressible phenomenon that is capital.

Modernity’s EndTime and History in the Discursive ConditionElizabeth Deeds Ermarth, Trent University, Canada.In this bold new book, Elizabeth Deeds Ermarth argues that modernity had its roots in the Renaissance and traces the history of modernity and postmodernity in Western culture from that time. Here, Ermarth provides a new, clear definition of modernity and a clear statement of the broadly established challenges to modernity, and the most important practical implications of those challenges for such basic things as individuality, political agency, creativity, the nature of time, the role of method.



The First Maya CivilizationRitual and Power Before the Classic PeriodFrancisco Estrada-Belli, Boston University, USA.The reality of the Preclassic Maya civilization has been documented by scholars over the past three decades: what had been seen as an age of simple village farming is now known to have been the period when the Maya made themselves into one of the New World’s most innovative societies. This book discusses the most recent advances in our knowledge of the Preclassic Maya and the emergence of their rainforest civilization, with new data on settlement, political organization, architecture, iconography and epigraphy supporting a contemporary theoretical perspective that challenges prior assumptions.

Baker, Rutgers University, USA, and Stewart Goetz, Ursinus College, Collegeville, USA.What do we mean when we speak about the soul? What are the arguments for the existence of the soul as distinct from the physical body? Do animals have souls? What is the difference between the mind and the soul? The Soul Hypothesis brings together experts from philosophy, linguistics and science to discuss the validity of these questions in the modern world. They contend that there is an aspect of the nature of human beings that is not reducible to the matter that makes up our bodies. The Soul Hypothesis presents views from a range of sciences and the resulting big picture shows that there is room for a soul hypothesis.

Women in European Culture and SocietyGender, Skill and Identity from 1700Deborah Simonton, University of Southern Denmark.A new and major contribution to the field, Women in European Culture and Society is a transnational history of women in Europe from the beginning of the eighteenth century that pushes women’s history beyond national studies to create an integrated view of three hundred years of women in Europe. Using a longue durée, the book disentangles the accounts of industrialisation and bourgeois femininity which tend to dominate women’s studies, and questions the dominant narratives of history.



Self-KnowledgeBrie Gertler, University of Virginia.In this outstanding introduction, Brie Gertler assesses the leading theoretical approaches to self-knowledge, explaining the work of many of the key figures in the field. Beginning with an outline of the distinction between self-knowledge and self-awareness and providing essential historical background to the problem, Gertler addresses specific theories of self-knowledge such as the acquaintance theory, the inner sense theory, and the rationalist theory, as well as leading accounts of self-awareness. The book concludes with a critical explication of the dispute between empiricist and rationalist approaches.



Terror and the Sublime in Art and Critical TheoryFrom Auschwitz to Hiroshima to September 11Gene Ray is a former German Chancellor’s Scholar of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, USA.Through rigorous critical studies of major works of post-1945 and contemporary culture, this book traces transformations in art and critical theory in the aftermath of Auschwitz and Hiroshima. Ray argues that globalization cannot be separated from the collective tasks of working through historical genocide. He provocatively concludes that the current US-led War on Terror must be grasped as a globalized inability to mourn.



Reset Middle EastOld Friends and New Alliances: Saudi Arabia, Israel, Turkey, IranStephen Kinzer, Boston University, USA.In this concise and readable book Stephen Kinzer takes the reader on a tour of modern Middle Eastern history, highlighting the errors, alliances and betrayals all acted out for what was shortsightedly seen as being in the interest of Western states. His insight and historical knowledge culminate in the startling conclusion that the US has allied with the wrong Middle Eastern states. Rather than Israel and Saudi Arabia, America’s natural allies - according to Kinzer’s controversial but closely reasoned analysis - should be Iran and Turkey.

The Unilateralist Temptation in American Foreign PolicyDavid Skidmore, Drake University.Skidmore traces U.S. unilateralism to the structural effects of the end of the Cold War, both domestically and abroad, to argue that the United States was more hegemonic than multilateralist - a rule-maker, not a rule-taker. This book demonstrates that American unilateralism has deeper roots and more resilience than many expect. The unilateral temptation can only be overcome through new political bargains domestically and internationally that permit multilateral engagement, even the absence of great power rivalry.


Current Affairs & Politics

Just and Unjust Interventions in World PoliticsPublic and PrivateCatherine Lu, McGill University, Montreal, Canada.Tapping insights and controversies from feminist political theory, Lu argues that debates between realists, communitarians, and cosmopolitans about the ethics of intervention in world politics are disciplined by competing models of the public/private distinction. A focus on this construct illuminates alternative images of ‘sovereignty as privacy‘ and ‘sovereignty as responsibility’, and identifies new ethical challenges arising from the increased agency of private global civil society actors, and their uneasy relationship with the world of states in contexts of ‘humanitarian intervention’.



The Struggle for Power in SyriaPolitics and Society under Asad and the Ba'th PartyNikolaos van Dam.This is a fully revised and updated paperback edition of this study of power in Syrian politics. The book explains the factors which have enabled the regime of Hafiz al-Asad to stay in power much longer than any other since independence; it also shows how al-Asad’s disappearance may seriously disrupt Syria’s present stability. Providing an in-depth analysis of the role of sectarian, regional and tribal loyalties in contemporary Syrian history, the author focuses attention on developments within the military and civilian power elite and the Ba’th Party organization.



Foucault on Politics, Security and WarMichael Dillon, University of Lancaster, UK, and Andrew W. Neal, University of Edinburgh, UK.This diverse collection of essays is the first to specifically engage Michel Foucault on questions of politics, security and war. It is also the first to take up the provocations found in Michel Foucault’s recently published Collège de France lectures. The contributors reassess the way Foucault worked experimentally and in collaboration and dialogue with others. In so doing, the essays pursue lines of enquiry that Foucault briefly extolled but did not exhaust, and take him in directions that he could not have foreseen, including the War on Terror, risk, biosecurity and biopolitics, AIDS, racial and ethnic conflict, and the critique of law.



The Political Economy of NGOsState Formation in Sri Lanka and BangladeshJude L. Fernando, Clark University.Jude L. Fernando explores the paradoxical relationship between NGOs and capitalism, showing that supposedly progressive organisations often promote essentially the same policies and ideas as existing governments. The book examines how a diverse group of NGOs have shaped state formation in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. It argues that, rather than influencing state formation for the better, NGOs have been integrated into the capitalist system and their language adopted to give traditional exploitative social relations a transformative appearance.



The Case Against Voting ReformWhy the AV System Would Damage BritainJames Forder is Fellow and Tutor in Economics, Balliol College, Oxford University.On the 5th May 2011, 39 million people will vote on an issue that could change British politics forever. The Case Against Voting Reform will show just how much is at stake. It explains the different voting systems and how they work, and why proportional representation isn't really fair. It shows why coalitions are bad for British democracy and why the AV system isn't even proportional. And lastly, it explains why marginal parties like the BNP would gain a powerful influence over the government.



The Next GenerationYoung Elected Officials and Their Impact on American PoliticsJohn Celock is an award-winning journalist.Award-winning journalist John Celock interviewed over ninety young leaders across America serving in various capacities, from Vice President and Governor to Senator and County Legislator, to provide an in-depth look at the challenges of political participation for young elected officials. A lively work that connects academic research with practical politics, The Next Generation includes a range of stories, from Steven Fulop who left Goldman Sachs following 9/11 to become a Marine to Jane Swift, the first governor to give birth while in office.



Anti-War ActivismNew Media and Protest in the Information AgeKevin Gillan, University of Manchester, UK; Jenny Pickerill, Leicester University, UK; and Frank Webster, City University London, UK.This book is the first major study of the anti-war movement after the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Brimming with empirical material that comes from two years of fieldwork and capturing the passions of its subjects, it addresses post-9/11 circumstances, the character of Information War that promotes ‘symbolic struggles’, the changed information environment of war. The book looks at what use activists make of new technologies to organize as well as to campaign, assessing use of mobile phones, email and the web.

The Southern Gates of ArabiaA Journey in the HadhramautFreya Stark (1893-1993) was the first western woman to travel through the Hadhramaut.Stark set out to be the first westerner to discover the fabled lost city of Shabwa, which had captivated explorers and travellers for centuries. Though she journeyed through the canyons and mountains of the Hadhramaut extensively and by any means possible, Stark’s goal was never reached, but the ending to her story was nevertheless - and in characteristic fashion - dramatic. Though Shabwa remained elusive, Freya Stark’s remarkable journey ensured that her name would forever be associated with Arabia and her travels hailed as intrepid and adventurous as any undertaken by other great explorers of Arabia.

Sir Walter RaleighIn Life and LegendMark Nicholls, St John’s College, Cambridge.Sir Walter Raleigh is a figure writ large in popular imagination. We now possess reliable versions of his poems, his letters and his travel narratives. No biography of Raleigh, however, can be complete without an assessment of his posthumous reputation. Myths that accumulated around him tell us something about the man himself, but far more about the perceptions of his own and subsequent generations. Raleigh’s talents as a writer ensured his positive legacy, but the appropriation of his legend for so many differing political uses has left us with a complex picture. In this original and important new biography Williams and Nicholls set this right.

The prize-winning biographer and historian Martin Duberman brings their stories‚ ¨and the story of their times¨ vividly and movingly to life.

Baghdad SketchesJourneys through IraqFreya Stark (1893-1993) was the doyenne of Middle East travel writers.Freya Stark first journeyed to Iraq in 1927. Seven years after the establishment of the British Mandate, the modern state was in its infancy and worlds apart from the country it has since become. Freya Stark was witness to the rise and fall of the British involvement in the country as well as the early years of independence. In the 1940s she returned again, this time travelling south, to the Marsh Arabs, whose way of life has now all but disappeared; north into Kurdistan and later, Kuwait, in the days before the oil boom. Baghdad Sketches is a remarkable portrait of the country as it once was.

Memoir

William Herbert: Third Earl of PembrokePolitics, Patronage and PowerBrian O’Farrell is a distinguished historian.William Herbert, Third Earl of Pembroke, 1580-1630, was the ‘uomo universale’ of the Early Stuart Age. He was the most important patron of the arts of the early seventeenth century, and almost certainly the person to whom Shakespeare dedicated his Sonnets. He was, in fact, the patron of almost every great literary and artistic figure of the period. This major new work, the product of many years of research, is the first full length study of Pembroke. It has been exhaustively researched with all the extant manuscript and printed materials studied.


Biography

The Letters of Rosa LuxemburgRosa Luxemburg (1871-1919) was a Polish-born Jewish revolutionary and one of the greatest theoretical minds of the European socialist movement.This is the most comprehensive collection of letters by Rosa Luxemburg ever published in English, including 190 letters written to leading figures in the European and international labor and socialist movements - Leo Jogiches, Karl Kautsky, Clara Zetkin and Karl Liebknecht - who were her closest friends, lovers and colleagues. Many of these letters appear for the first time in English translation; all help to illuminate the inner life of this iconic revolutionary, who was at once an economic and social theorist, a political activist and a lyrical stylist.

Palgrave Macmillan donates ebook access to the University of Canterbury

Palgrave Macmillan has arranged access to 33,000 ebooks as a donation to the University of Canterbury, which was affected by the Christchurch earthquake on 4th of September. Significant damage to buildings & infrastructure has resulted in the closure of the Central University Library (Macmillan Brown Library), which housed almost a million book volumes.

The collapse of book stacks has meant that the library will not be able to open for the remainder of the semester, but access has been granted to the full 5,000-strong Palgrave Connect collections covering History, Politics, Business, Literature and Social & Cultural studies.

The five hectares of special varieties probably represent the earliest surviving vineyard in this distinctive wine-growing area.

The sculptures, their landscape settings, daily activities and the beautiful gardens of Elgee Park are the subjects of Mark Chew’s dramatic photographs taken over all four seasons of the year. This expanded second edition includes an updated text and all the sculptures commissioned since the first edition published in 2004.

Anne Marie GrahamMini Book #16 Andrew Gaynor and Jenny Zimmer.Anne Marie Graham’s lengthy career encompasses many more themes than the lush tropical landscapes featured in this mini-book. She has brought her unique style to scenes from Melbourne Royal Botanic Gardens and the arid inland as well as the streets and markets of France and Italy. Often they include figures, sometimes miniscule in relation to their surrounds but comfortable within their colourful environment. Graham says: “I use colour as a major vehicle for mood.” In this mini-book we are treated to the moods of tropical North Queensland which Graham has visited many times over the last decades.

StargazingCelebrity, Fame, and Social InteractionKerry O. Ferris, Northern Illinois University, and Scott R. Harris, Saint Louis University.Stargazing highlights the interactional dynamics of celebrity and fame in contemporary society, including the thoughts and feelings of stars on the red carpet, the thrills and risks of encountering a famous person at a convention or on the streets, and the excitement generated even by the obvious fakery of celebrity impersonators. Using compelling, real-life examples involving popular celebrities, Ferris and Harris examine how the experience and meanings of celebrity are shaped by social norms, interactional negotiations, and interpretive storytelling.

The Divided SelfIsrael and the Jewish Psyche TodayDavid J Goldberg, Liberal Jewish Synagogue, London.How should Jews respond to an age of militant Zionism and resurgent anti-Semitism? Is insisting on a separate sense of identity anachronistic and dangerous, or is it the only way of preserving the Jewish cultural heritage? Rabbi David Goldberg, one of today’s most respected and outspoken Jewish leaders in the English-speaking world, here grapples with the dilemmas of contemporary Jewishness with characteristic candour, and sketches the emerging faultlines in the Jewish sense of identity. He offers up a completely fresh reading of Jewish history, arguing that the narrative of relentless woe and suffering was based on a highly selective reading of the past.

Rituals and Student identity in EducationRitual Critique for a New PedagogyRichard A. Quantz, Miami University, USA.The current crisis in American schools has been more than fifty years in the making. The present assumption that ‘accountability’ equals ‘testing’ and that ‘education’ equals ‘measurable objectives’ has occurred in a brief lifetime. How has this happened? Quantz attempts to answer this question in this fascinating study. It is not a history of the movement, but an exploration of how the nonrational aspects of schooling, especially ritual(s), have been harnessed to construct a commonsense which serves the interests of transnational corporations.

Tucker, Indiana UniversityFrom the coffee producers and pickers who tend the plantations in tropical nations, to the middlemen and processors, to the consumers who drink coffee without ever having to think about how the drink reached their hands, here is a commodity that ties the world together. This book that helps students apply anthropological concepts and theories to their everyday lives, learn how historical events and processes have shaped the modern world and the contexts of their lives, and how consumption decisions carry ramifications for our health, the environment, the reproduction of social inequality, and the possibility of supporting equity, sustainability and social justice.

Material PowersCultural Studies, History and the Material TurnTony Bennett, University of Western Sydney, and Patrick Joyce, University of Manchester.This edited collection is a major contribution to the current development of a ‘material turn’ in the social sciences and humanities. It does so by exploring new understandings of how power is made up and exercised by examining the role of material infrastructures in the organisation of state power and the role of material cultural practices in the organisation of colonial forms of governance. A diverse range of historical examples is drawn on in illustrating these concerns.

Auschwitz and AfterimagesAbjection, Witnessing and RepresentationNicholas Chare, University of Reading.Powers of Horror, is the best known work by Kristeva in the Anglo-American world and has had a profound influence in diverse fields. This book provides a timely critical reassessment of Kristeva’s often misunderstood writings on the abject and a crucial appraisal of the value the concept of abjection holds for the study of the witnessing and representation of the Holocaust. Nicholas Chare offers fresh interpretations of the poetry of Paul Celan, the poetic prose of Charlotte Delbo and the paintings of Francis Bacon. He also explores the ‘Scrolls of Auschwitz’, discovered buried in the grounds of the crematoria at Birkenau.

Imagining IraqLiterature in English and the Iraq InvasionSuman Gupta, Open University, UK.An enormous number of literary texts engaged with the build-up towards, undertaking of and aftermath of the recent invasion of Iraq. This book both provides a survey of such texts and presents a particular critical perspective on them. Many were regarded as taking a position for or against the invasion, but this study neither attempts to hold authors to account for their political choices nor tries to reach a moral consensus on the invasion. The idea here is to examine how certain literary texts appeared within and ‘spoke’ to a specific socio-political context, not merely to reckon with that context but to understand the condition of contemporary literature generally.

Anti-ItalianismEssays on a PrejudiceWilliam Connell, Seton Hall University, USA, and Fred Gardaphé, CUNY, USA.There has been an odd reluctance on the part of historians of the Italian American experience to confront the discrimination faced by Italians and Americans of Italian ancestry. This volume is a bold attempt by an esteemed group of scholars and writers to discuss the question openly by charting the historical and cultural boundaries of stereotypes, prejudice, and assimilation. Contributors offer a continuous series of cultural encounters and experiences in television, literature, and film that deserve the attention of anyone interested in the larger themes of American history.

Nurturing the Talent to Nurture the LegacyCareer Development in the Family BusinessAmy M. Schuman, The Family Business Consulting Group, Inc.This book argues that the declining nature of traditional forms of civic participation in America over the last half century are the result of the evolution of larger institutional, social, and historical forces over the course of the nation’s history - the expansion of citizenship, the changing political economy, and the growth of the national government - that have altered the calculus for individual civic participation, favoring the self-interest motivation at the expense of the civic duty motivation.

Visual Art and Education in an Era of Designer CapitalismDeconstructing the Oral EyeJan Jagodinski, University of Alberta, Canada.The oral eye is a metaphor for the dominance of global designer capitalism. It refers to the consumerism of a designer aesthetic by the ‘I’ of the neoliberalist subject, as well as the aural soundscapes that accompany the hegemony of the capturing attention through screen cultures. An attempt is made to articulate the historical emergence of such a synoptic machinic regime drawing on Badiou, Bellmer, Deleuze, Guattari, Lacan, Rancière, Virilio, Ziarek, and Zizek to explore contemporary art (post-Situationism) and visual cultural education.

Oscar WildeRuth Robbins, Leeds Metropolitan University, UKOscar Wilde’s reputation has shifted dramatically during the twentieth century from outcast in the wake of his trials for homosexual offences, to martyr to the gay cause in the 1980s and 90s, to important figure in the history of writing in English. Ruth Robbins introduces Wilde through a focus on his manipulations of genre and sets Wilde’s life and work in its literary and cultural context, including the history of Victorian drama; the contexts of criticism in the period; poetry as post-romantic and pre-modernist mode of expression; the uses and subversions of fictional forms in his work; and his subversion of the autobiographical mode in his prison letter De Profundis.

New Argentine FilmGonzalo Aguilar, The National Research Council (CONICET), Argentina.New Argentine Film is the most complete text to be published on the new Argentine cinema. While anchored in critical discourse and written by an academic, it also has the virtue of using clear and accessible language. In addition, the book is more than a study of cinema; in its pages, the author reflects upon the recent crisis in Argentina. In the words of Argentine critic Diego Trerotola, “the trajectory of this essay forms a vivid map of over ten years of innovation, in order to understand the aesthetic work of our national cinema.”

Social WorksPerforming Arts, Supporting PublicsShannon Jackson, University of California, Berkeley.At a time when art world critics and curators heavily debate the social, and when community organizers and civic activists are reconsidering the role of aesthetics in social reform, this book makes explicit some of the contradictions and competing stakes of contemporary experimental art-making. Social Works is a radically interdisciplinary approach to the forms, goals and histories of innovative social practice in both contemporary performance and visual art. Shannon Jackson uses a range of case studies and contemporary methodologies to mediate between the fields of visual and performance studies.

These emergent encounters demonstrate the need for the constant adaptation and reinterpretation of Deleuze’s findings if they are to have continued relevance, especially for cinema’s contemporary engagement with the aftermath of the Cold War and the global dominance of neoliberal globalization.

Blood MoneyA History of the First Teen Slasher Film CycleRichard Nowell is an independent scholar.Scholars have consistently applied psychoanalytic models to representations of gender in early teen slasher films in order to claim that these were formulaic, excessively violent exploitation films, fashioned to satisfy the misogynist fantasies of teenage boys and grind house patrons. However, Blood Money demonstrates that filmmakers and marketers actually went to extraordinary lengths to make early teen slashers attractive to female youth, to minimize displays of violence, gore and suffering and to invite comparisons to a wide range of post-classical Hollywood’s biggest hits.

PoetryThe Basics, Second EditionJeffrey Wainwright is a poet, translator, and critic.Now in its second edition, Poetry: The Basics demystifies the traditions and forms of the world of poetry for all those who find it daunting or bewildering. Covering a wide range of poetic voices from Chaucer to children’s rhymes, song lyrics and the words of contemporary poets, this book will help readers to appreciate poetry by examining technical aspects such as rhythm and measures; different tones of voice in poetry; the relationship between ‘everyday’ and ‘poetic’ language; how different types of poetry are structured; how the form and ‘space’ of a poem contribute to its meaning; some of the ways contemporary poets set to work.

Learning Chinese, Turning ChineseChallenges to Becoming Sinophone in a Globalised WorldEdward McDonald, University of Auckland.In this book Edward McDonald takes a fresh look at issues of language in Chinese studies. He takes the viewpoint of the university student of Chinese with the ultimate goal of becoming ‘sinophone’: that is, developing a fluency and facility at operating in Chinese-language contexts comparable to their own mother tongue. While the entry point for most potential sinophones is the Chinese language classroom, the kinds of “language” and “culture” on offer there are rarely questioned, and the links between the forms of the language and the situations in which they may be used are rarely drawn.

The Life in the SonnetsDavid Fuller, University of Durham, UK.In this vibrant and controversial book, David Fuller seeks to recover the life in Shakespeare’s sonnets, arguing that feeling and emotion, often ignored in criticism, should be central. He offers two ways of attempting this - first engaging with the poems through kinds of feeling fundamental to the young man sequence as presented in other kinds of writing and art - philosophy (Plato), poetry and visual art (Michelangelo), fiction (Mann), music (Britten), and film (Jarman). He then discusses reading the poems aloud, showing that dwelling in the words without translating them into other terms brings out their beauty and expressivity, and leads to fuller understanding of their form, structure, and meaning.

The King and IPhilippa Kelly, University of New South Wales.Outlaws, irreverent humorists, political underdogs, authoritarians - and the silhouette, throughout, of a contemporary Australian woman: these are some of the figures who emerge from Philippa Kelly’s extraordinary personal tale, The King and I. Kelly uses Shakespeare’s King Lear as it has never been used before - to tell the story of Australia and Australians through the intimate journey she makes with Shakespeare’s old king, whose struggles and torments are touchstones for the variety, poignancy and humour of Australian life. At the heart of this book is one woman’s personal story, and through this story we come to understand many profound and often hilarious features of the land Down Under.

Don DeLilloMao II, Underworld, Falling ManStacey Olster, State University of New York, USA.A wide-ranging study of the post-1990 fiction of one of America’s most respected writers and cultural critics, this volume focuses on three of Don DeLillo’s most recent novels that span pivotal moments in recent history: the end of the Cold War, the millennium, and 9/11.

The Artificial ApeHow Technology Changed the Course of Human EvolutionDr Timothy Taylor, University of Bradford, UK.While Darwin's theory explains our common descent, scientists have grappled with the reasons why human evolution defies the principles of natural selection and why, although we dominate the planet, we have become the weakest ape. In this fascinating narrative, leading archaeologist Timothy Taylor proposes that it was our early adoption of tools, objects, and, now, technology that changed us. Drawing on the latest fossil evidence, Taylor shows how humans made choices that assumed greater control over their own evolution.

Birth Matters is a spirited manifesta showing us how to trust women, value birth, and reconcile modern life with a process as old as our species.
