Voiced and Voiceless in Asia
This volume consists of 19 chapters that reflect the titular theme - Voiced and Voiceless in Asia - from a variety of angles, making use of diverse scholarly approaches and disciplines, while focusing specifically on China, India, Japan, and Taiwan. The chapters are broadly divided into two parts: (1) Politics and Society, and (2) Arts and Literature, although the texts included in the second part also deal with social themes.

Corri col vento
Kiyose vede Kakeru per caso, all’uscita dal bagno pubblico. Non è propriamente un incontro: Kakeru è in fuga dopo un piccolo furto, ma Kiyose, vedendolo scappare di corsa, non ha esitazioni, è lui la chiave per raggiungere il suo sogno, la Hakone Ekiden, una classica ultramaratona a staffetta che si tiene ogni anno sin dal 1920 su un percorso di quasi 220 chilometri da concludere in 48 ore. Kakeru, studente squattrinato con un passato tormentato da promessa del running, entra così a far parte della comunità dello Chikuseiso, una casa condivisa, in realtà poco più che una catapecchia: è il decimo inquilino, e anche l’ultimo elemento che manca a Kiyose, dal momento che la Hakone Ek...

Publisher description
Flori, a Pastoral Drama
One of the first pastoral dramas published by an Italian woman, Flori is Maddalena Campiglia's most substantial surviving literary work and one of the earliest known examples of secular dramatic writing by a woman in Europe. Although acclaimed in her day, Campiglia (1553-95) has not benefited from the recent wave of scholarship that has done much to enhance the visibility and reputation of contemporaries such as Isabella Andreini, Moderata Fonte, and Veronica Franco. As this bilingual, first-ever critical edition of Flori illustrates, this neglect is decidedly unwarranted. Flori is a work of great literary and cultural interest, noteworthy in particular for the intensity of its focus on the experiences and perceptions of its female protagonists and their ideals of female autonomy. Flori will be read by those involved in the study of early modern literature and drama, women's studies, and the study of gender and sexuality in this period.
Italian Academies and their Networks, 1525-1700
Italian Academies have typically been studied individually or in the context of specific cities, leaving an important lacuna in the scholarship on Italian culture and early modernity. Cutting across various disciplines, this volume traces the relationships of these Academies and explains how they prefigured networks like the République des letters.
