Описание: This Reader is a comprehensive text outlining primary approaches to multimodality. In the “Theory and Methodology” section, the scholars who are responsible for the approaches’ developments give some personal insight into how and/or why these approaches were developed. The Reader covers various theoretical and methodological approaches to multimodality, including a great variety of terminology, which are defined in a glossary, and are linked back to the personal narratives or interviews in which scholars highlight why and how the various terms are of importance. Included is also a “Transcription and How-to-Analyze” section that familiarizes the readers with several analytical toolkits. This section is then followed by an extensive “Sample Analyses” section. As the book is intended to address readers from various backgrounds, the examples of multimodal analyses that are introduced in this section belong to various social practices. The book offers an extensive alphabetical glossary, list of further readings, and a list of suggested assignments.

Описание:

Tara Richards is unhappy with her job as a rehabilitation nurse and disenchanted with her marriage, but lacks the courage to make a major life change. When her best friend Lisa disappears, Tara's life is thrown into turmoil. Has Lisa jeopardized her sobriety by going on a drinking binge or is she hiding the news that she may be pregnant from her partner Ryan, who has a history of battering, and it's not his baby? Lisa is her rock, her confidant, her reality check. Tara can't live without her. Despite the near paralysis of bad hair days and her dread of turning forty, Tara joins a massive search to look for her friend in conjunction with the police, her colorful women's collective, Lisa's old-world Italian parents, and a twenty-four-year-old man Tara finds particularly captivating.

Описание:

Published in book form four times a year, Granta is respected around the world for its mix of outstanding new fiction, poetry, reportage, memoir, photography and art.

Granta 149: New Europe includes essays by Elif Shafak, UKON, Andrew Miller, Will Atkins, Lara Feigel, Katherine Angel, Michael Hofmann, Joseph Koerner, Tom McCarthy and many more. It harks back to the 1989 issue of the same name, themed around the response to the fall of the Berlin wall. Through the lenses of exile and migration, we ask ourselves what it means to be European now.

Featuring a photoessay by Bruno Fert who steps inside the temporary homes of refugees in camps in Greece and France.
