Cultural Analysis
With internationalization, the world is becoming smaller and the opportunity to meet people from other countries and cultures is becoming more common, providing the need for cooperation, shared knowledge, and cross-border trade. Individual cultures tend to understand themselves best and base their understanding of the world and its peoples on ideas they each have come to believe irrespective of reality, and thus make it difficult to reach a proper understanding of other cultures. This book considers intercultural understanding and co-action, partly by means of general insights into the concept of culture and the dimensions which bring about cultural differences, and partly as a methodology to analyze a certain culture - whether one's own or others'. This leads towards an understanding of cultural complexity and cultural differences among people. The book provides a discussion of a number of ethical issues, which almost invariably will arise when people meet and co-act across cultural boundaries. Cultural Analysis offers a theoretical/abstract proposal for cultural understanding, intercultural plurality, and complexity.

Bloody Fields
NORTHERN LIGHTS TRILOGY BOOK ONE Leaving England in a hurry, Peter Arnett - thief, grifter, vagabond - requires someplace where no one would think to look for him; and who ever heard of a bank robber hiding out in Denmark? Keeping out of trouble, one low paid honest job follows another but it's hard to lay low when the Danes will befriend even a grumpy ex-con. Following a chance encounter with an ambitious small-town cop he finds himself pulled back into The Life but who exactly is corrupting who? Sure, the girl's a looker but she might also be deadlier than anyone he's ever met, himself included. With his old life becoming tangled in the new, Peter soon realises that his best odds for survival lay in the planning and execution of a score so reckless that no one in their right mind would even dream of attempting it. He can expect a few surprises that day but the prime suspect will not be one

Rhetorical Audience Studies and Reception of Rhetoric
This book examines the reception of rhetoric and the rhetoric of reception. By considering salient rhetorical traits of rhetorical utterances and texts seen in context, and relating this to different kinds of reception and/or audience use and negotiation, the authors explore the connections between rhetoric and reception. In our time, new media and new forms of communication make it harder to distinguish between speaker and audience. The active involvement of users and audiences is more important than ever before. This project is based on the premise that rhetorical research should reconsider the understanding, conceptualization and examination of the rhetorical audience. From mostly understanding audiences as theoretical constructions that are examined textually and speculatively, the contributors give more attention to empirical explorations of actual audiences and users. The book will provide readers with new knowledge on the workings of rhetoric as well as illustrative and guiding examples of new methods of rhetorical studies.
