Caitlin Macy
Spoiled: Stories

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Caitlin Macy’s debut novel The Fundamentals of Play was heralded as a Gatsbyesque examination of love and class in Manhattan. Now, in her sophisticated and provocative story collection Spoiled, Macy turns her unsparing eye on affluent and educated women who nevertheless struggle to keep their footing in their relationships and life.In “Annabel’s Mother,” a young woman does a good deed for her nanny, only to have it go horribly wrong. “Bait and Switch” chronicles a lifelong rivalry between two sisters. A self-made woman struggles to gain the upper hand with her comically self-assured cleaning woman in “The Red Coat.” And in “Taroudant,” a newly married woman desperate for authentic experience makes a rash decision to leave the grounds of her Moroccan luxury hotel. Macy’s voice is as straightforward as it is original in these stories, and her characters deftly nuanced. Full of surprising, sometimes shocking insights and simmering with outrage, compassion, and humor, Spoiled is a… [detailed...]

Anson Shupe
Spoils of the Kingdom: Clergy Misconduct and Religious Community

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Description: In `Spoils of the Kingdom`, Anson Shupe investigates clergy misconduct as it has recently unfolded across five faith-based groups. Looking at episodes of abuse in the Roman Catholic, Mormon, African American Protestant, white Evangelical Protestant, and First Nations communities, `Spoils of the Kingdom` tackles hard questions about the sexual abuse of women and children, but also about economic frauds perpetrated by church leaders (including embezzlement, misrepresented missions, and outright theft) as well as cases of excessively authoritarian control of members` health, lifestyles, employment, and politics. Drawing on case evidence, Shupe employs classical and modern social exchange theories to explain the institutional dynamics of clergy misconduct. He argues that there is an implicit contract of reciprocity and compliance between congregants and religious leaders that, when amplified by the charismatic awe often associated with religious authorities, can lead to misconduct.

Laura McClure
Spoken Like a Woman: Speech and Gender in Athenian Drama

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In ancient Athens, where freedom of speech derived from the power of male citizenship, women`s voices were seldom heard in public. Female speech was more often represented in theatrical productions through women characters written and enacted by men. In Spoken Like a Woman, the first book-length study of women`s speech in classical drama, Laura McClure explores the discursive practices attributed to women of fifth-century b.c. Greece and to what extent these representations reflected a larger reality. Examining tragedies and comedies by a variety of authors, she illustrates how the dramatic poets exploited speech conventions among both women and men to construct characters and to convey urgent social and political issues.From gossip to seductive persuasion, women`s verbal strategies in the theater potentially subverted social and political hierarchy, McClure argues, whether the women characters were overtly or covertly duplicitous, in pursuit of adultery, or imitating male orators….

Spontaneity and Power: Theatre Improvisation as Processes of Change in Organizations

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book is relevant for consultants, managers and others, who seek to understand the processes of relating in which they participate. Larsen uses improvisational theatre as a form of consulting. In the interplay of audience and player immediate change is created in the ongoing life of the organization because in the movement of the improvisation meaning emerges spontaneously. Larsen argues that although such spontaneity is experienced individually, it is in fact social processes in which it is felt risky to participate.It seems to me that the apparently small shifts that Larsen describes change what is known` organizationally not as a moment of uncovering what is already there but as the emergence of novelty in the processes of mutual spontaneous action. However this is not just about theatre. Larsen contends that what is critical to whether or not change occurs is how much spontaneity people finds themselves risking in the face of power differentials. He asks how the heightened… [detailed...]

Description: What is your first idea when a 17-year old pregnantgirl presents with sudden tinnitus and hemianopsia? Spontaneous cervical carotid artery dissection (SCAD)is probably not on top of your list. This raredisease is a major cause of stroke in young adults.Various lesions have been described in associationwith SCAD, and several triggers and predisposingfactors are surmised. Besides providing an overviewon epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of SCAD,this work contains a histological evaluation of thecarotid bifurcation on a control series obtainedduring forensic autopsies, in which lesions similarto those described for spontaneous cervical arterydissection were observed. These can be explained asreactive changes of smooth muscle cells (SMC) and thevascular wall in response to various stressors.Recent advances in vascular physiology are discussedto illustrate the concept of SMC phenotypicmodulation. There is a need to integrate knowledgefrom both vascular physiology and clinical… [detailed...]
