Among the other hair-raising tales in this collection, Windham spotlights the apparitions of academia. From the three Yankee soldiers who haunt the University of Alabamas Civil Warera Little Round House to the Confederate soldier who resides in the University Chapel at Auburn University, Alabamas institutions of higher learning seem to have more than a few paranormal pupils.

The Drama of Complaint
The first book-length study of complaint in Shakespearean drama, arguing that poetic forms of complaint--expressions of discontent and unhappiness--operate as sites of thought about human flourishing; and that Shakespearean configurations of these forms of complaint in theatrical scenes model new ways of thinking about ethical subjectivity.
Teachers in the Movies
The teaching profession has a long history in motion pictures. As early as the late 19th century, films have portrayed educators of young children--including teachers, tutors, day care workers, nannies, governesses, and other related occupations--in a variety of roles within the cinematic classroom. This work provides a broad index of more than 800 films (both U.S. and foreign) which feature educators as primary characters. Organized alphabetically by title, each entry contains a short plot summary and many also include cast and crew details. A detailed subject index is also included.

With this incisive work, Palmer Rampell reveals the surprising role genre fiction played in redefining the category of the private person in the postwar period.

Triangulating novels and films with original archival discoveries and historical and legal research, Rampell provides ...

How the practice of titling paintings has shaped their reception throughout modern history A picture's title is often our first guide to understanding the image. Yet paintings didn’t always have titles, and many canvases acquired their names from curators, dealers, and printmakers—not the artists.

Ruth Bernard Yeazell begins the story with the decline of patronage and the rise of the art market in the seventeen...
