Writing the Public in Cyberspace: Redefining Inclusion on the Net (Garland Studies in American Popular History and Culture)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Popular claims that new information technology will expand democratic and public spaces are problematic given the exclusive history of the `public` and the restriction of access to computer technology to elites. This book investigates patterns of behavior in a cybercommunity consisting of Americans and Canadians, and discusses the ways in which these so-called public spaces are likely to reshape the boundaries between social insiders and outsiders rather than eliminate them. Traverse analyses the ways inwhich the norms for participation within cyberspaces often play a role in undermining public tendencies, but notes that new information technologies provide educators, feminists, and other social groups concerned with broadening the inclusive nature of public spaces with unique opportunities. The book`s final section explores current efforts by feminists on-line to expand public access for women and suggests further strategies for developing more genuinely inclusive public spaces. … [detailed...]

Writing the Roaming Subject: The Biotext in Canadian Literature

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Engaging current debates within the studies of life writing and of the nation-state, Writing the Roaming Subject focuses on a group of Canadian writers who pose questions about cultural difference and national identity while writing about their own lives and their own experiences of displacement. Joanne Saul uses the term `biotext` to describe the unique form of writing that challenges critical practices regarding both life writing and immigrant and ethnic minority writing by blurring the borders of biography, autobiography, history, fiction and theory, as well as poetry, prose, and visual representation. In her readings of selected contemporary Canadian biotexts - including Michael Ondaatje`s Running in the Family , Daphne Marlatt`s Ghost Works , Roy Kiyooka`s Mothertalk , and Fred Wah`s Diamond Grill - Saul suggests that by crossing generic boundaries, these works illuminate the complex relationships between language, place, and self as they are… [detailed...]

Stephen E. Atkins
Writing the War: My Ten Months in the Jungles, Streets and Paddies of South Vietnam, 1968

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this memoir, Stephen E. Atkins relates his unique experiences during the Vietnam War. Atkins was drafted just before he had completed his Ph.D. in French history in November 1966. He entered the army after his 26th birthday in February 1967, and, after his stint in Officer Candidacy School was cut short, became a non-commissioned officer and arrived in South Vietnam in April 1968. Serving as a pointman and sniper, he experienced six weeks of frontline duty, averaging a firefight each week with heavy casualties. With an advanced degree and a case of beer for a bribe, he transferred to the 19th Military History Detachment in late May and spent the remainder of his tour of duty traveling the Mekong Delta, Plain of Reeds, and areas near Saigon. His memoir is the result of a tour of intense fighting, careful documentation, and an illicit diary kept at all times. [detailed...]

Writing to Delight: Italian Short Stories by Nineteenth-Century Women Writers (Toronto Italian Studies)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The nineteenth century represents a crucial historical and cultural phase in the development of modern Italy. Writing to Delight provides a selection of short stories written by some of the most accomplished and acclaimed female authors of nineteenth-century Italy, made available to an English-speaking audience for the first time through this translation. The stories that make up this anthology are written in a realistic vein and describe the life and concerns of women at a time when Italy was going through major social and economic changes. Imbued with didactic aims, the authors of these stories strove to inspire and at the same time educate their public. In this regard, Writing to Delight also serves as an instrument for a critical investigation of both the cultural productions of nineteenth-century Italy and the process of formation of modern Italian identities. With the growth of the middle-classes and a more diffuse literacy among the population, women… [detailed...]

Writings in General Linguistics

2006 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Ferdinand de Saussure`s Cours de linguistique generale was posthumously composed by his students from the notes they had made at his lectures. The book became one of the most influential works of the twentieth century, giving direction to modern linguistics and inspiration to literary and cultural theory. Before he died Saussure told friends he was writing up the lectures himself but no evidence of this was found. Eighty years later in 1996 a manuscript in Saussure`s hand was discovered in the orangerie of his family house in Geneva. This proved to be the missing original of the great work. It is published now in English for the first time in an edition edited by Simon Bouquet and Rudolf Engler, and translated and introduced by Carol Sanders and Matthew Pires, all leading Saussure scholars. The book includes an earlier discovered manuscript on the philosophy of language, Saussure`s own notes for lectures, and a comprehensive bibliography of major work on Saussure from 1970 to 2004. … [detailed...]

Writings of Nichiren Shonin: Doctrine 4, Faith and Practice

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
Description: This volume, the twelfth project of the English Translation Committee of the Nichirenshu Overseas Propagation Promotion Association (NOPPA), constitutes all twenty-seven writings of Buddhist reformer Nichiren Shonin (1222-1282) included in the `Nichiren Shonin Zenshu` (Complete Writings of Nichiren Shonin), `Volume IV: Faith and Practice`, published in Tokyo in 1993. The `Nichiren Shonin Zenshu` is a modern Japanese version of Nichiren`s original writings, translated and edited with annotations by modern scholars of Nichiren Buddhism. Despite its all-inclusive titles, the `Zenshu` is highly selective in that it takes into account only writings considered bibliographically authentic (i.e., attested to by original manuscripts). Among such texts, those included in the `Showa Teihon Nichiren Shonin Ibun` (Writings of Nichiren Shonin Standardized in the Showa Period) are considered the most authoritative, and they provide the basic texts for this volume.

Mark Rothko
Writings on Art

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: While the collected writings of many major 20th-century artists, including Barnett Newman, Robert Motherwell, and Ad Reinhardt, have been published, Mark Rothko’s writings have only recently come to light, beginning with the critically acclaimed The Artist’s Reality: Philosophies of Art . Rothko’s other written works have yet to be brought together into a major publication. Writings on Art fills this significant void, it includes some 90 documents—including short essays, letters, statements, and lectures—written by Rothko over the course of his career. The texts are fully annotated, and a chronology of the artist’s life and work is also included. This provocative compilation of both published and unpublished writings from 1934--69 reveals a number of things about Rothko: the importance of writing for an artist who many believed had renounced the written word, the meaning of transmission and transition that he experienced as an… [detailed...]

Writings on Ballet and Music (Studies in Dance History)

Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAlthough little-known in the West, Fedor Lopukhov was a leading figure in Russia`s dance world for more than sixty years and an influence on many who became major figures in Western dance, such as George Balanchine. As a choreographer, hestaged the first post-revolutionary productions of traditional ballets like Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty as well as avant-garde and experimental works, including Dance Symphony, Bolt, and a highly controversial version of The Nutcracker. This first publication in English of Lopukhov`s theoretical writings will give readers a clear understanding of his seminal importance in dance history and illuminate his role in the development of dance as a nonnarrative, musically based form. These writings present the rationale behind Lopukhov`s attempt to develop a `symphonic` ballet that would integrate the formal and expressive elements of dance and music. They also show his finely detailed knowledge of the… [detailed...]
