Описание:
When young, New York veterinarian, Kate O'Dowd travels to Mexico City to study the burgeoning stray dog crisis, she is lured to a horse ranch under the pretense of treating a sick animal. Held there against her will by Paulo Darro Rivas, a ruthless cartel leader, her desire to escape is at odds with her feelings for Paulo. Now called Catalina, she attempts to accept her fate and her new life while struggling to maintain her moral compass. Eventually, the fiery redhead must choose between rescuing and treating the dog population she loves or rescuing herself from the dark world of the cartel.
The Masses Are Revolting reconstructs a pivotal era in the history of affect and emotion, delving into an archive of nineteenth-century disgust to show how this negative emotional reaction came to play an outsized, volatile part in the emergence of modern British society. Attending to the emotion's socially productive role, Zachary Samalin highlights concrete scenes of Victorian disgust, from sewer tunnels and courtrooms to operating tables and alleyways. Samalin focuses on a diverse set of nineteenth-century writers and thinkers—including Charles Darwin, Charles Dickens, Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Thomas Hardy, George Gissing, and Charlotte Bronte—whose works reflect on the shifting, unstable meaning of disgust across the period.
Samalin elaborates this cultural history of Victorian disgust in specific domains of British society, ranging from the construction of London's sewer system, the birth of modern obscenity law, and the development of the conventions of literary realism to the emergence of urban sociology, the rise of new scientific theories of instinct, and the techniques of colonial administration developed during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. By bringing to light disgust's role as a public passion, The Masses Are Revolting reveals significant new connections between these apparently disconnected forms of social control, knowledge production, and infrastructural development.
