Описание:
Images of the body in ancient Near Eastern civilizations are radically different from body images today, which in turn creates significant consequences for our understanding of the biblical notion of God's human shape and the frequent and widespread misconceptions therein. Andreas Wagner illuminates such frequent and widespread misconceptions, and reveals the sometimes distant pictorial world of ancient body images. He contrasts these with contemporary models and makes the matter of the Old Testament concept of God's human form accessible and clear.
Wagner begins by introducing readers to aspects of anthropomorphism, the study of body parts, and Israel's basic understanding of the human body. He then turns specifically to the body of God, analysing why and how certain body parts are emphasized or regularly employed in the biblical text when it tries to describe God. Wagner draws out the theological aspects of the ways in which God's body is described as well as considering the diverse range of ancient Near Eastern perspectives on God, and the ways in which ancient cultures constructed and understood deities. Wagner concludes by looking at how the depiction of God in the Old Testament fits with the concept of mankind made in God's image. Enhanced by over fifty illustrations, God's Body will lead the debate in biblical anthropomorphism for years to come.

Описание: Baudelaire's Media Aesthetics situates Charles Baudelaire in the midst of 19th-century media culture. It offers a thorough study of the role of newspapers, photography, and precinematic devices in Baudelaire's writings, while also discussing the cultural history of these media generally. The book reveals that Baudelaire was not merely inspired by the new media, but that he played with them, using them as frames of perception and ways of experiencing the world. His writings demonstrate how different media respond to one another and how the conventions of one medium can be paraphrased in another medium. Accordingly, Baudelaire's Media Aesthetics argues that Baudelaire should be seen merely as an advocate of "pure poetry, +? but as a poet in a media saturated environment. It shows that mediation, montage, and movement are features that are central to Baudelaire's aesthetics and that his modernist aesthetics can be conceived of, to a large degree, as a media aesthetics.
Highlighting Baudelaire's interaction with the media of his age, Baudelaire's Media Aesthetics discusses the ways in which we respond to new media technology, drawing on perspectives from Walter Benjamin and Giorgio Agamben. Combining detailed research with contemporary theory, the book opens up new perspectives on Baudelaire's writings, the figure of the flaneur, and modernist aesthetics.
Описание: Voix et silence se consid?rent traditionnellement comme deux ph?nom?nes oppos?s, s’excluant l’un l’autre. Les contributions contenues dans ce volume se proposent de d?passer une telle conception, en se centrant non seulement sur la valeur et les fonctions que les deux concepts peuvent recouvrir, mais aussi sur la relation complexe qui existe entre eux en linguistique et en litt?rature. Outre les deux p?les constitu?s par la voix et le silence, on peut rep?rer dans le domaine des langues romanes une grande vari?t? de voix silencieuses ou de silences expressifs : la communication non verbale et son interaction avec le langage verbal, les diff?rentes voix (plus ou moins silencieuses) donnant expression ? ce qui ne peut pas ?tre dit, ou bien la repr?sentation graphique – et donc apparemment « muette » – d’un ph?nom?ne potentiellement acoustique. Le cri silencieux de Daphn?, rendu visible dans la sculpture de Gian Lorenzo Bernini illustrant la couverture, est la manifestation figurative de cette rencontre oxymorique entre la voix et le silence.
2020 International Latino Book Awards Honorable Mention in Best Nonfiction (Multi-Author)
Latinx Writing Los Angeles offers a critical anthology of Los Angeles’s most significant English-language and Spanish-language (in translation) nonfiction writing from the city’s inception to the present. Contemporary Latinx authors, including three Pulitzer Prize winners and writers such as Harry Gamboa Jr., Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and Rubén Martínez, focus on the ways in which Latinx Los Angeles’s nonfiction narratives record the progressive racialization and subalternization of Latinxs in the southwestern United States.
While notions of racial memory, coloniality, biopolitics, internal colonialism, cultural assimilation, Mexican or pan-Latinx cultural nationalism, and transnationalism permeate this anthology, contributors advocate the idea of a contested modernity that refuses to accept mainstream cultural impositions, proposing instead alternative ways of knowing and understanding. Featuring a wide variety of voices as well as a diversity of subgenres, this collection is the first to illuminate divergent, hybrid Latinx histories and cultures. Redefining Los Angeles’s literary history and providing a new model for English, Spanish, and Latinx studies, Latinx Writing Los Angeles is an essential contribution to southwestern and borderland studies.
Описание: Come tutta la stampa «di regime» anche Legioni e Falangi. Rivista d’Italia e di Spagna / Legiones y Falanges. Revista mensual de Italia y de Espana (1940–1943), pubblicata tra Roma e Madrid, puo leggersi come una narrazione univoca degli avvenimenti di quegli anni attraverso le immagini e i testi che la componevano. Come una sorta di koine culturale fascista, la rivista attuava una politica – anche linguistica – basata sugli ideali e i valori identitari ostentatamente condivisi dai due totalitarismi. Grazie a una visione trasversale di entrambe le edizioni, i saggi in italiano e in spagnolo contenuti in questo volume analizzano la rivista, ricalcandone il bilinguismo, come un esempio paradigmatico delle relazioni politiche e culturali tra l’Italia fascista e la Spagna del primo Franchismo, ma soprattutto come uno strumento d’informazione e di formazione propagandistica in cui la costruzione del discorso – ma anche il racconto, l’immagine fotografi ca e la «settima arte» – convergono per sostenere l’immediatezza del messaggio ideologico. Como toda prensa «de regimen» tambien Legioni e Falangi. Rivista d'Italia e di Spagna / Legiones y Falanges. Revista mensual de Italia y de Espana (1940 – 1943), que se publico paralelamente entre Roma y Madrid, puede leerse como una narracion uniforme de los acontecimientos de la epoca gracias a las imagenes y a los textos que la componian. Lugar privilegiado donde se reunia lo mas destacado de la cultura y de la politica de ambos paises, gracias al bilinguismo y a la traduccion en la revista se concretaba una politica – tambien linguistica- basada en los ideales y en los valores aparentemente compartidos por los dos totalitarismos. Desde un enfoque polifacetico que abarca ambas ediciones, los ensayos in italiano y en espanol recogidos en este volumen estudian la revista Legioni e Falangi/Legiones y Falanges no solo como un modelo de las relaciones culturales y politicas entre la Italia fascista y la Espana de la posguerra, sino tambien como uno de los medios de informac ion y formacion propagandistica donde todo contribuia a reafirmar el mensaje ideologico y su pronta recepcion.
Описание: The African colonization movement occupies a troubling rhetorical territory in the struggle for racial equality in the United States. For white colonizationists, the movement seemed positioned as a welcome compromise between slavery and abolition. For free blacks, colonization offered the hope of freedom, but not within America's borders. Bj?rn F. Stillion Southard indicates how politics and identity were negotiated amid the intense public debate on race, slavery, and freedom in America. Operating from a position of power, white advocates argued that colonization was worthy of massive support from the federal government. Stillion Southard pores over the speeches of Henry Clay, Elias B. Caldwell, and Abraham Lincoln, which engaged with colonization during its active deliberation.Between Clay's and Caldwell's speeches at the founding of the American Colonization Society (ACS) in 1816 and Lincoln's final public effort to encourage colonization in 1862, Stillion Southard analyzes the little-known speeches and writings of free blacks who wrestled with colonization's conditional promises of freedom.He examines an array of discourses to probe the complex issues of identity confronting free blacks who attempted to meaningfully engage in colonization efforts. From a peculiarly voiced “Counter Memorial” against the ACS to the letters of wealthy black merchant Louis Sheridan negotiating for his passage to Liberia to the civically minded orations of Hilary Teage in Liberia, Stillion Southard brings to light the intricate rhetoric of blacks who addressed colonization to Africa.

Описание: Writing, reading, and interpretation are acts of human minds, requiring complex cognition at every point. A relatively new field of studies, cognitive linguistics, focuses on how language and cognition are interconnected: Linguistic structures both shape cognitive patterns and are shaped by them. The Cognitive Linguistics in Biblical Interpretation section of the Society of Biblical Literature gathers scholars interested in applying cognitive linguistics to biblical studies, focusing on how language makes meaning, how texts evoke authority, and how contemporary readers interact with ancient texts. This collection of essays represents first fruits from the first six years (2006–2012) of that effort, drawing on cognitive metaphor study, mental spaces and conceptual blending, narrative theory, and cognitive grammar. Contributors include Eve Sweetser, Ellen van Wolde, Hugo Lundhaug and Jesper T. Nielsen.
