Описание: Narrating Love and Violence is an ethnographic exploration of women’s stories from the Himalayan valley of Lahaul, in the region of Himachal Pradesh, India, focusing on how both, love and violence emerge (or function) at the intersection of gender, tribe, caste, and the state in India. Himika Bhattacharya privileges the everyday lives of women marginalized by caste and tribe to show how state and community discourses about gendered violence serve as proxy for caste in India, thus not only upholding these social hierarchies, but also enabling violence. The women in this book tell their stories through love, articulated as rejection, redefinition and reproduction of notions of violence and solidarity. Himika Bhattacharya centers the women’s narratives as a site of knowledge-beyond love and beyond violence. This book shows how women on the margins of tribe and caste know both, love and violence, as agents wishing to re-shape discourses of caste, tribe and community.
Mythologies and narratives of victimization pervade contemporary Croatia, set against the backdrop of militarized notions of masculinity and the political mobilization of religion and nationhood. Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork in rural Dalmatia in the Croatian-Bosnian border region, this book provides a unique account of the politics of ambiguous Europeanness from the perspective of those living at Europe's margins. Examining phenomena such as Marian apparitions, a historic knights tournament, the symbolic re-signification of a massacre site, and the desolate social situation of Croatian war veterans,�Narrating Victimhood traces the complex mechanisms of political radicalization in a post-war scenario. This book provides a new perspective for understanding the ongoing processes of transformation in Southeastern Europe and the Balkans.

Описание: In this groundbreaking study, Maram Epstein identifies filial piety as the dominant expression of love in Qing dynasty texts. By decentering romantic feeling as the dominant expression of love during the High Qing, Orthodox Passions calls for a new understanding of the affective landscape of late imperial China.

Описание: In meiner Magisterarbeit untersuche ich drei zeitgenossische Spielfilme - V for Vendetta, Munich und Children of Men - in Hinblick auf ihre Gewalterzahlung. Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit ist die Uberlegung, da sich die grundsatzliche mo- lische und kunstlerische Problematik in der Darstellung von Gewalt im Film im Falle von 9/11 noch verscharft. Zum einen wurde das Medium Film beschuldigt, insbesondere der spektakulare Actionfilm, die virtuelle Vorlage fur die Terror- tacken geliefert zu haben: Die Kollision der Flugzeuge, die brennenden und kollabierenden Twin Towers und die Panik auf den Straen mutete vielen an wie aus einem Actionfilm entsprungen. Zum anderen wurde unmittelbar nach den Angriffen eine gewisse Zuruckhaltung und Rucksicht bezuglich der grafischen Darstellung eines traumatischen Ereignisses wie 9/11 erwartet. Die Fiktion selbst schien Realitat geworden zu sein, und die traumatische Realitat war fur den Moment in ihrer Ganze nicht zu verarbeiten oder zu begreifen. Sowohl die g- fisch-realistische Gewaltdarstellung als auch das Spektakel gehoren jedoch zum festen Repertoire traditioneller Erzahltechnik des Terrorismus- und Actionfilms. Meine Arbeit behandelt die Antworten auf diese kunstlerischen Herausf- derungen in drei Actionfilmen, die wenige Jahre nach 9/11 erschienen. Diese Filme erzahlen Geschichten uber Terrorismus im Actionfilm-Format und erst- len aktuelle politische Bezuge. Die Gewalterzahlung jedes Filmes wird in jeweils drei Abschnitten untersucht, in Hinblick auf Inhalt, filmische Darstellungs- thoden und Referenzen auf politische Entwicklungen bzw. auf die eingangs sk- zierte Problematik. Der erste Abschnitt behandelt Rechtfertigungsmuster von Gewalt und die Gegenuberstellung von Terrorismus mit anderen Formen der Gewalt.

Описание:
The wider cultural universe of contemporary Eveny is a specific and revealing subset of post-Soviet society. From an anthropological perspective, the author seeks to reveal not only the Eveny cultural universe but also the universe of the children and adolescents within this universe. The first full-length ethnographic study among the adolescence of Siberian indigenous peoples, it presents the young people’s narratives about their own future and shows how they form constructs of time, space, agency and personhood through the process of growing up and experiencing their social world. The study brings a new perspective to the anthropology of childhood and uncovers a quite unexpected dynamic in narrating and foreshadowing the future while relating it to cultural patterns of prediction and fulfillment in nomadic cosmology.

Описание: This open access book captures and elaborates on the skill of storytelling as one of the distinct leadership features of Xi Jinping, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China and the President of the People’s Republic of China. It gathers the stories included in Xi’s speeches on various occasions, where they conveyed the essence of China’s history and culture, its reform and development, and the principles of China’s participating in global governance and cooperating with other countries to build a community of common destiny. The respective stories not only convey abstract and profound concepts of governance in comparatively straightforward language, but also create an immediate emotional connection between the narrator and the listener.
In addition to the original stories, extensive additional materials are provided to convey the original context in which each was told, including when and to whom Xi told it, helping readers attain a deeper, intuitive understanding of their relevance.

Описание:
Narrating Nomadism provides an unflinching account of ethnic groups and nomadic communities across the world that were branded as 'criminal' during colonial times. It explores the tragic effect of the new identity imposed on them, the traumatic survival of these communities and cultures, and the creative expression of this experience in their arts and literature in the form of resistance.
Presenting specific contexts and locations of cultural devastation in history, the volume traces colonial social imagination as such, showing how the grossly misperceived non-sedentary communities in the colonies were subjected to the mission of 'settling' them. The essays presented here document these alternative histories from perspectives ranging from literary criticism and art history to ethnography and socio-linguistics, highlighting in what ways different nomadic communities negotiate discrimination and challenge in contemporary times, while finding remarkable convergence in their local histories and collective testimonies.
This anthology opens up a new area in postcolonial studies as well as cultural anthropology by bringing the viewpoint of marginalized communities and their cultural rights to bear upon history, society and culture. It places an activist's 'view from below' at the centre of literary interpretation, engages with oral history more substantially than folklore studies usually do, and brings together several historical narratives hitherto unexplored. This will be essential for students of anthropology, sociology, cultural studies, history, linguistics, post-colonial studies, literature and tribal studies, as well as the general reader.
