La cultura en la Universitat de València: 1985-2019

Con motivo del XX Aniversario del Centre Cultural La Nau y del 520 de la Universitat de València, este libro recoge la historia de su actividad cultural entre 1985 y 2019. Toma como punto de partida la aprobación de sus Estatutos, que supusieron el inicio de su andadura democrática y autónoma, y que ya la definían como una institución difusora de cultura en el seno de la sociedad. Para cumplir con esta misión, la Universitat de València ha desarrollado innumerables iniciativas y programas en el terreno de las artes escénicas, la literatura, el cine, la música, las exposiciones, la cultura científica, el debate público o el patrimonio cultural. Esta obra recoge, por primera vez en un único volumen, el camino recorrido en cumplimiento de la que constituye una de sus principales funciones: el desarrollo de una cultura crítica transformadora de la realidad social y favorecedora de la convivencia democrática, plural y en igualdad.

Neoliberalism and the Media

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book examines the multiple ways that popular media mainstream and reinforce neoliberal ideology, exposing how they promote neoliberalism’s underlying ideas, values and beliefs so as to naturalize inequality, undercut democracy and contribute to the collapse of social notions of community and the common good. Covering a wide range of media and genres, and adopting a variety of qualitative textual methodologies and theoretical frameworks, the chapters examine diverse topics, from news coverage of the 2016 U.S. presidential election to the NBC show Superstore (an atypical instance in which a TV show, for one brief season, challenged the central tenets of neoliberalism) to "kitchen porn." The book also takes an intersectional approach, as contributors explore how gender, race, class and other aspects of social identity are inextricably tied to each other within media representation. At once innovative and distinctive in its illustration of how the media is complicit in perpetuating neoliberal ideology, Neoliberalism and the Media offers students and scholars alike an incisive portrait of the intersection between media and ideology today.

The Worlds of Langston Hughes

The poet Langston Hughes was a tireless world traveler and a prolific translator, editor, and marketer. Translations of his own writings traveled even more widely than he did, earning him adulation throughout Europe, Asia, and especially the Americas. In The Worlds of Langston Hughes, Vera Kutzinski contends that, for writers who are part of the African diaspora, translation is more than just a literary practice: it is a fact of life and a way of thinking. Focusing on Hughes's autobiographies, translations of his poetry, his own translations, and the political lyrics that brought him to the attention of the infamous McCarthy Committee, she shows that translating and being translated—and of...
