The South African Short Story in English, 1920-2010
Through detailed close readings alongside investigations into the history of print culture, Marta Fossati traces the development of the South African short story in English from the late 1920s to the first decade of the twenty-first century. She examines a selection of short stories by important Black South African writers (Rolfes and Herbert Dhlomo, Peter Abrahams, Can Themba, Alex La Guma, Mtutuzeli Matshoba, Ahmed Essop, and Zoë Wicomb) with an alertness to the dialogue between ethics and aesthetics performed by these texts.

The Influence of Italian Culture on the Sevillian Golden Age of Painting
This book explores the cultural exchange between Italy and Spain in the seventeenth century, examining Spanish collectors’ predilection for Italian painting and its influence on Spanish painters. Focused on collecting and using a novel methodology, this volume studies how the painters of the Sevillian school, including Francisco Pacheco, Diego Velázquez, Alonso Cano and Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, perceived and were influenced by Italian painting. Through many examples, it is shown how the presence in Andalusia of various works and copies of works by artists such as Michelangelo, Caravaggio and Guido Reni inspired famous compositions by these Spanish artists. In addition, the book delves into the historical, political and social context of this period. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, Renaissance studies, and Italian and Spanish history.

Grande Traversata delle Alpi
Eine unvergessliche Fußreise durch den italienischen Westalpenbogen: Die Grande Traversata delle Alpi (kurz GTA), eine der spannendsten Alpendurchquerungen, führt durch abgelegene, fast verges-sene Täler des Piemont. Mit beeindruckenden Aufnahmen und lebendigen Erzählungen gibt dieser Bildband Einblick in einige der schönsten Winkel der Alpen – einsam und wild. Vom nördlichsten Punkt des Piemont führt die Route – teilweise mit gewaltiger 4000er-Kulisse – auf alten Saumwegen über entlegene Alpen und ursprüngliche Dörfer bis ans Mittelmeer. 1000 Kilometer und 65.000 Höhenmeter haben die Bergjournalisten und Fotografen Iris Kürschner und Dieter Haas auf der GTA zurückgelegt. ...

Nineteenth-Century Women’s Movements and the Bible
Nineteenth-Century Women’s Movements and the Bible examines politically motivated women’s movements in the nineteenth century, including the legal, cultural, and ecclesiastical contexts of women. Focusing on the period beginning with the French Revolution in 1789 through the end of World War I in 1918, contributors explore the many ways that women’s lives were limited in both the public and domestic spheres. Essays consider the social, political, biblical, and theological factors that resulted in a multinational raising of awareness and emancipation for women in the nineteenth century and the strengthening of their international networks. The contributors include Angela Berlis, Kristin Kobes Du Mez, Ute Gerhard, Christiana de Groot, Arnfriður Guðmundsdóttir, Izaak J. de Hulster, Elisabeth Joris, Christine Lienemann-Perrin, Amanda Russell-Jones, Claudia Setzer, Aud V. Tønnessen, Adriana Valerio, and Royce M. Victor.
Cospirazione animale
Che cosa hanno a che fare la razza, l’abilismo e il binarismo di genere con l’animalità? Esiste un’ecologia non antropocentrica? In che modo la costruzione del corpo disabile si intreccia con l’animalizzazione dei reietti del pianeta? Gli animali sono davvero soggetti “senza voce”? O resistono allo sfruttamento? Per rispondere rifiutando le soluzioni riduzionistiche è necessario uno sguardo situato. Marco Reggio muove da episodi problematici del proprio attivismo nel movimento di liberazione animale e, con una serie di incursioni fra testi letterari, studi decoloniali, teorie queer e critical animal studies, affronta questi temi da un punto di vista antispecista che accetta l’imbarazzo e lo smarrimento come forme legittime di interpellazione politica.
