Описание: Spectacle is usually considered a superficial form of politics, which tries to distract and deceive a passive audience. It is difficult to see how this type of politics could be reconciled with the democratic requirement of active and informed agency. Rethinking the Spectacle re-examines the tension between spectacle and political agency using the ideas and practices of Guy Debord and the Situationist International as a point of departure. Drawing on radical democratic theory and examining case studies such as the 2011 Occupy movement, Devin Penner concludes that spectacle can and should be used to mobilize the public for egalitarian purposes.

Описание: Hubo un periodo en el que el Paraguay fue referido como el pais con mayor bilinguismo en Latinoamerica. Hoy dia se lo considera un pais donde se habla mayormente el jopara, termino con el que se alude a un tipo de mezcla de las dos lenguas mayoritarias, el guarani y el espanol. ?En que contexto y con que proposito surge esta denominacion? ?Que es el jopara desde el punto de vista linguistico? ?Por que se suele focalizar la descripcion linguistica en el jopara y ya no en el guarani? ?Acaso ya no se habla el guarani? A partir de estas interrogantes se analizan diferentes aristas del problema, apuntando principalmente a dos objetivos. Por un lado, ofrecer una vision de conjunto de la investigacion sobre el jopara y de los enfoques teoricos existentes. Por el otro, explorar las implicaciones e inferencias sociolinguisticas del analisis netamente linguistico o estructural, que se basa fundamentalmente en textos escritos o transliterados, y descontextualizados. Si no se analizan practicas de lenguaje en relacion con la competencia de hablantes bilingues y monolingues en guarani, en el caso de que aun existan, ?como saber donde ‘termina’ el guarani y donde ‘empieza’ el castellano.
Описание: Reverence takes on a new meaning in this original memoir of an avid gardener walking the Camino de Santiago. The Camino de Santiago has been a journey for pilgrims for more than 1,000 years, testing—to varying degrees—their spirit, faith, and physical endurance. Lyndon Penners attention lies elsewhere. A renowned gardener and lover of literature, he revels in the plants, trees, and flowers that tell the history of the people and ecology of northern Spain. Brimming with wry observations—of nature, himself, and other pilgrims on the road— The Way of the Gardener reveals the beauty and the darkness of the human condition while underscoring the deeply fascinating nature of nature itself. This textured work makes for perfect armchair—or garden—reading.

What if the sky was deadly?
Fin has never stepped foot on the irradiated surface of the Earth. Working the mines, deep below, has been the only life she's ever known. The underground is nothing more than an existence of sweat and monotony in service to the Enhanced Human Coalition-the overlords from above.
It's simple, you serve the EHC up top, or you starve to death.
But in a stroke of luck, Fin stubbles upon a piece of tech that increases strength, intelligence, and allows adaptation to the surface's harsh conditions. Stealing this device sends the underground into chaos.
Now she's triggered a manhunt and is on the run for not only her crimes... but her new abilities. To protect herself and the only family she's ever known, Fin is forced to flee with her loyal best friends and a handsome stranger who unluckily gets caught in the crossfire.
There's only one problem, they're driven to the most dangerous place possible... aboveground.
This volume performs a critical and vibrant reconstruction of Anabaptist identity and theological method, in the wake of the recent revelations of the depth of the sexual abuse perpetrated by the most influential Anabaptist theologian of the 20th century, John Howard Yoder. In an attempt to liberate Anabaptist theology and identity from the constricting vision appropriated and reformulated by Yoder, these essays refuse the determinative categories of the last half century supplied by and carried beyond Harold Bender's The Anabaptist Vision.
While still under the shadow of decades of trauma, a recontexualized conversation about Anabaptist theology and identity emerges in this volume that is ecumenically engaged, philosophically astute, psychologically attuned, and resolutely vulnerable. The volume offers a Trinitarian and Christological framework that holds together the importance of Scripture, tradition, and the lived experience of the Christian community, as the contributors examine a wide variety of issues such as Mennonite feminism, Anabaptist queer theology, and Mennonite theological methods. These essays interrogate the operations of power, violence, exclusion, and privilege in methodology in this changed context, offering self-critical constructive alternatives for articulating Anabaptist theology and identity.

Описание:
Storytelling in Opera and Musical Theater is the first systematic exploration of how sung forms of drama tell stories. Through examples from opera's origins to contemporary musicals, Nina Penner examines the roles of character-narrators and how they differ from those in literary and cinematic works, how music can orient spectators to characters' points of view, how being privy to characters' inner thoughts and feelings may evoke feelings of sympathy or empathy, and how performers' choices affect not only who is telling the story but what story is being told. Unique about Penner's approach is her engagement with current work in analytic philosophy. Her study reveals not only the resources this philosophical tradition can bring to musicology but those which musicology can bring to philosophy, challenging and refining accounts of narrative, point of view, and the work-performance relationship within both disciplines. She also considers practical problems singers and directors confront on a daily basis, such as what to do about Wagner's Jewish caricatures and the racism of Orientalist operas. More generally, Penner reflects on how centuries-old works remain meaningful to contemporary audiences and have the power to attract new, more diverse audiences to opera and musical theater. By exploring how practitioners past and present have addressed these issues, Storytelling in Opera and Musical Theater offers suggestions for how opera and musical theater can continue to entertain and enrich the lives of 21st-century audiences.
