Описание: Luke Kennard recasts Shakespeare`s 154 sonnets as a series of anarchic prose poems set in the same joyless house party. Wry, insolent and self-eviscerating, Notes on the Sonnets riddles the Bard with the anxieties of the modern age, bringing Kennard`s affectionate critique to subjects as various as love, marriage, God, metaphysics and a sad horse.

Описание: "I turned my life's torment into testament."
When it comes to life, Newton Matos had all the obstacles imaginable: sexual and physical abuse, a drug-addicted mother, the violence of gang life, homelessness, and a criminal record-all before he turned eighteen. Joining the US Navy was an escape from his harrowing past, but Newton couldn't run away forever. When the trauma from his childhood and his deployments became too much, he cracked. Suicidal and suffering from the worst case of PTSD ever diagnosed by Navy and civilian doctors, Newton discovered the healing powers of therapy, and his life began to change. Deep Down is the extremely personal account of Newton's ordeal, his journey of healing, and his ultimate victory over an unimaginable past through personal acceptance, inner peace, and self-discovery. It is also a message of hope for anyone who thinks that they are not enough. Raw, shocking, and inspiring all at once, Deep Down is a testament of one man's survival against unimaginable odds, and proof that the darkest of darkness can indeed lead to light.

Glade Balladeer is a simple tavern bard who uses her skills in music and magic to entertain, and to work as a Warden, guarding the borders from the Wild beyond. When a powerful businessman discovers that she is also hiding that she is partly Wild herself, he blackmails her into taking a delicate case along with two other not-quite-legal Wardens. They discover more than just a missing girl and have to learn to work together to uncover a plot that might restart a centuries-old war with the Wild.

Описание: The contributors to Media Crossroads examine space and place in media as they intersect with sexuality, race, ethnicity, age, class, and ability. Considering a wide range of film, television, video games, and other media, the authors show how spaces—from the large and fantastical to the intimate and virtual—are shaped by the social interactions and intersections staged within them. The highly teachable essays include analyses of media representations of urban life and gentrification, the ways video games allow users to adopt an experiential understanding of space, the intersection of the regulation of bodies and spaces, and how style and aesthetics can influence intersectional thinking. Whether interrogating the construction of Portland as a white utopia in Portlandia or the link between queerness and the spatial design and gaming mechanics in the Legend of Zelda video game series, the contributors deepen understanding of screen cultures in ways that redefine conversations around space studies in film and media.

Описание: Rights to their traditional lands and resources are essential to the survival of indigenous peoples. They have been formulated and advanced in the most progressive way by the Inter-American system of human rights protection.
In this book, Mariana Monteiro de Matos analyzes, in detailed and comprehensive inquiry, the pertinent jurisprudence of the Inter-American Commission and Court of Human Rights. She identifies three distinct waves of decision regarding the objects of ownership or possession, the rights associated, and the holders of the rights. Originally, the book also offers a profound analysis of corollary procedural law.

War Hecatomb. International Effects on Public Health, Demography and Mentalities in the 20th Century, offers new insights on the impact of wars (namely, but not exclusively, World War I), by underlining its social and psychological consequences, particularly in public health, demography, and mentalities in different countries. Therefore, it is not just another book on World Wars, since it does not focus primarily on political, diplomatic, military or economic aspects. Instead, the work offers a brand new approach on these wars’ consequences, and especially on the civilizational significance of the Great War of 1914-1918. This original view over societies coping with the aftermath of the two world wars reveals how states and different agents were compelled to act and to face the new post-war reality, bringing to light an innovative social agenda while simultaneously trying to cope with the overwhelming phenomenon of physically and mentally scarred multitudes of veterans and their families. The book focuses on the consequences of conflicts in different perspectives and geographic locations. In twelve chapters, several aspects and effects of wars are analysed through different lens.

Описание:
In this book, Jaime Rodr?guez Matos proposes the “formless” as a point of departure in thinking through the relationship between politics and time. Thinking through both literary and political writings around the Cuban Revolution, Rodr?guez Matos explores the link between abstract symbolic procedures and various political experiments that have sought to give form to a principle of sovereignty based on the category of representation. In doing so, he proposes the formless as the limit of modern and contemporary reflections on the meaning of politics while exploring the philosophical consequences of a formless concept of temporality for the critique of metaphysics. Rodr?guez Matos takes the writing and thought of Jos? Lezama Lima as the guiding thread in exploring the possibility of a politicity in which time is imagined beyond the disciplining functions it has had throughout the metaphysical tradition—a time of the absence of time, in which the absence of time no longer means eternity.
