Описание: In December 1989, Tess and Mungo spot each other while supporting The Parade of Innocence in Dublin. Their paths continue to cross, and eventually they meet in The Winding Stair Bookshop & Caf overlooking the Liffey at the Ha'Penny Bridge, both of them wary of the other and troubled by guilt. Tess has separated from her husband and left her son behind, Mungo almost killed his son in a fire by dropping a cigarette while drunk. Reluctant to reveal their true selves and circumstances, Tess concocts a life in Berlin, and Mungo picks up on her stratagem, inventing a life in Barcelona. Their personae fuel a torrid love affair, helping them, as their stories become more fantastic, to work through their guilt and to take responsibility for their happiness. Eamonn Wall in The Review of Contemporary Fiction noted that 'the stories they tell of adventures in places they haven't visited ... form a fascinating double narrative, one which allows for deep insights into both of their lives...' Review "Thank you for sending me The Fabulists. It's a very strange and impressive book. Mr Casey has managed to make two lost and empty lives obsessively interesting. I wish you would pass on my admiration." -Martha Gellhorn to Stephen Hayward, Serif Books "An impressively mature and honest tale of extra-marital love and family obligation on the dole in contemporary Dublin, The Fabulists presents two of the most convincingly flesh-and-blood characters to turn up in an Irish novel for ages ... an enormously compelling romance with two characters who'll still be in your head weeks after the plot details have disappeared." -Colin Lacey, The Irish Voice, New York "Fabulous, which comes from the word fable, suggests vast, amazing or excellent - all of which apply to this first novel by poet Philip Casey. An Irish love story for the 1990s." -Anthony Glavin, The Sunday Tribune

Описание:
In the late nineteenth century, Japan's new Meiji government established museums to showcase a national aesthetic heritage. Inspired by Western museums and expositions, these institutions were introduced by government officials hoping to spur industrialization and self-disciplined public behavior, and to cultivate an "imperial public" loyal to the emperor. Japan's network of museums expanded along with its colonies. By the mid-1930s, the Japanese museum system had established or absorbed institutions in Taiwan, Korea, Sakhalin, and Manchuria. Not surprising, colonial subjects' views of Japanese imperialism differed from those promulgated by the Japanese state. Meanwhile, in Japan, philanthropic and commercial museums were expanding, revising, and even questioning the state-sanctioned aesthetic canon. Public Properties describes how museums in Japan and its empire contributed to the reimagining of state and society during the imperial era, despite vigorous disagreements about what was to be displayed, how, and by whom it was to be seen.

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.

Описание:
In the post-Cold War era, problems of war and peace have become complicated and ambiguous, involving such nonmilitary issues as the north-south dichotomy of power, resource depletion, and globalization of capitalism. To create a twenty-first-century intellectual and theoretical foundation for peace studies, Building New Pathways to Peace considers both the old concepts of tolerance, shalom, and wa, and the relatively new concepts of human security, decent peace, credibility, accountability, plurality, multiculturalism, and transnationalism. It also elucidates impediments to and necessary conditions for actualizing peace.
