Автор: Zume Su Название: Pink Kinky: Japan`s Sex Underground ISBN: 9881250714 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789881250711 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 37860.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Japan Pink Kinky is a book that looks at Japan's sex culture from the more visible hostess and red light districts to the subterranean subcultures that are inaccessible, but nonetheless widespread. Over the span of several years the author scoured Japan's sex scenes to bring a collection of some of the most colorful and hedonistic non -commercial sex communities. The book is clearly reflective of the unprecedented access the author was granted to some of the most underground of clubs and societies. The book is a sweeping ride into the Japan's underground, with descriptions of trends, neighborhoods, industries, subcultures and a plethora of eye opening interviews with some of the most prominent people in each scene. Lavishly supplemented with hundreds of photos, the book will also be of appeal on a purely visual level. The book looks at how Japan has taken sex, and reinterpreted it in creative and often bizarre ways.

Автор: Vaught Название: Carnival and Literature in Early Modern England ISBN: 1138268801 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781138268807 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 54090.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Carnival and Literature in Early Modern England explores the elite and popular festive materials appropriated by authors during the English Renaissance in a wide range of dramatic and non-dramatic texts. Although historical records of rural, urban, and courtly seasonal customs in early modern England exist only in fragmentary form, Jennifer Vaught traces the sustained impact of festivals and rituals on the plays and poetry of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English writers. She focuses on the diverse ways in which Shakespeare, Spenser, Marlowe, Dekker, Jonson, Milton and Herrick incorporated the carnivalesque in their works. Further, she demonstrates how these early modern texts were used-and misused-by later writers, performers, and inventors of spectacles, notably Mardi Gras krewes organizing parades in the American Deep South. The works featured here often highlight violent conflicts between individuals of different ranks, ethnicities, and religions, which the author argues reflect the social realities of the time. These Renaissance writers responded to republican, egalitarian notions of liberty for the populace with radical support, ambivalence, or conservative opposition. Ultimately, the vital, folkloric dimension of these plays and poems challenges the notion that canonical works by Shakespeare and his contemporaries belong only to 'high' and not to 'low' culture.

Автор: Tomoyuki Sasaki Название: Japan`s Postwar Military and Civil Society: Contesting a Better Life ISBN: 1472525558 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781472525550 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 137280.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Japan's so-called 'peace constitution' renounces war as a sovereign right of the nation, and bans the nation from possessing any war potential. Yet Japan also maintains a large, world-class military organization, namely the Self-Defence Forces (SDF). In this book, Tomoyuki Sasaki explores how the SDF enlisted popular support from civil society and how civil society responded to the growth of the SDF. Japan's Postwar Military and Civil Society details the interactions between the SDF and civil society over four decades, from the launch of rearmament in 1950. These interactions include recruitment, civil engineering, disaster relief, anti-SDF litigation, state financial support for communities with bases, and a fear-mongering campaign against the Soviet Union. By examining these wide-range issues, the book demonstrates how the militarization of society advanced as the SDF consolidated its ideological and socio-economic ties with civil society and its role as a defender of popular welfare. While postwar Japan is often depicted as a peaceful society, this book challenges such a view, and illuminates the prominent presence of the military in people's everyday lives.
