Описание: This book shows that while globalization is a dominant force in society, and though news can be instantaneously broadcast internationally, there is relatively little commonality throughout the world in the depiction of events occurring in other countries. The research gathered here is based on a quantitative content analysis of over 17,000 news items and analysis of over 10,000 survey respondents.
Автор: O`Toole Fintan Название: The Politics of Pain: Postwar England and the Rise of Nationalism ISBN: 1684574951 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781684574957 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 27580.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: From one of the most perceptive observers of the English today comes a brilliantly insightful, mordantly funny account of their seemingly irrational embrace of nationalism. England's recent lurch to the right appears to be but one example of the nationalist wave sweeping across the world, yet as acclaimed Irish critic Fintan O'Toole suggests in The Politics of Pain, it is, in reality, a phenomenon rooted in World War II. We must look not to the vagaries of the European Union but, instead, far back to the end of the British empire, if we hope to understand our most fraternal ally-and the royal mess in which the British now find themselves. O'Toole depicts a roiling nation that almost ludicrously dreams of a German invasion, if only to get the blood going, and that erupts in faux outrage over regulations on "prawn-flavored crisps." A sympathetic yet unsparing observer, O"Toole asks: How did a great nation bring itself to the point of such willful self-harm? His answer represents one of the most profound portraits of the English since Sarah Lyall's New York Times bestseller The Anglo Files.

Автор: Fintan Walsh Название: Theatres of Contagion: Transmitting Early Modern to Contemporary Performance ISBN: 1350085987 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350085985 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 100320.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: To what extent is theatre a contagious force, capable of undoing and enlivening people and cultures? This book responds to the current political and cultural climate by investigating theatre's status as a contagious cultural practice, questioning its role in the spread or control of medical, psychological and emotional conditions and phenomena. Observing a diverse range of practices from the early modern to contemporary period, essays consider how this contagion is understood to happen and operate, its real and imagined effects, and how these have been a source of pleasure and anxiety for theatre makers, audiences and authorities. Drawing on perspectives from medicine, neuroscience, psychology, religion, anthropology and law, essays collectively explore some of the ways in which theatre can be viewed as a powerful agent of containment and transmission. Among the works analyzed are a musical adaptation and an intercultural variation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet; a contemporary queer take on Hamlet; a site-specific adaptation of Elizabeth Inchbald's 1792 suppressed tragedy, The Massacre; the writings and influence of Artaud; productions at the Parisian Theatre du Grand-Guignol; the work of Punchdrunk and smartphone apps which simulate pathological phenomena.
Автор: Fintan Lane Название: William Thompson: The Life and Thought of a Radical, 1778-1833 ISBN: 1474244440 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781474244442 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 89760.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This book is the first comprehensively researched study of the life and thought of Irish-born William Thompson (1778–1833), who is regarded by historians of socialist thought as the most influential theorist to emerge from the Owenite movement in early 19th-century Britain and Ireland. His work on the distribution of wealth was used by Marx, and he also became a key figure in the history of feminism. Fintan Lane outlines Thompson’s personal and political context as well as examining his social, political and economic thought. Part One covers his family, social and Irish background and his engagement with radical ideas, including his collaboration with Jeremy Bentham. Part Two focuses on his time as a leading thinker in the early socialist movement, while the Epilogue discusses the notorious dispute over his will, his subsequent influence and how he has been regarded since his death. Bringing to light new facts about Thompson as well as correcting previous misunderstandings about his life and context, this long-overdue study of an important and influential thinker will appeal to historians of modern Britain and Ireland, of political economy and those interested in the history of ideas more broadly.
