Dante Alighieri
Dante's political thought has long constituted a major area of interest for Dante studies. Yet there has been a tendency for the poet's views on matters of politics to be seen by critics as a self-contained, discrete area for study.This edition of four political letters examines the extent to which they can be said to contain the seeds of the political poetry of the Commedia, and to look again at the ways in which the author transforms the Latin political rhetoric of the letters into the Italian poetic language of his vernacular masterpiece.Table of Contents:1. Introduction: `Rome once had two suns? 2. The Letter to the Princes and Peoples of Italy (Epistola V)3. The Letter to the Florentines (Epistola VI)4. The Letter to the Emperor Henry VII (Epistola VII)5. The Letter to the Italian Cardinals (Epistola XI)6. BibliographyDr Claire Honess is a Senior Lecturer in the Italian Department at the University of Leeds.
Angelo Beolco (Il Ruzante)
Perhaps the most extreme oration ever delivered to a bishop, the Prima oratione is presented here in a first complete transcription of all three surviving manuscript versions, and for the first time with an English translation. Through extensive original research of manuscript sources, the editor posits new dates, places, and audiences for multiple performances of the oration.
Reassessing Communism
The thirteen authors of this collective work undertook to articulate matter-of-fact critiques of the dominant narrative about communism in Poland while offering new analyses of the concept, and also examining the manifestations of anticommunism. Approaching communist ideas and practices, programs and their implementations, as an inseparable whole, they examine the issues of emancipation, upward social mobility, and changes in the cultural canon. The authors refuse to treat communism in Poland in simplistic categories of totalitarianism, absolute evil and Soviet colonization, and similarly refuse to equate communism and fascism. Nor do they adopt the neoliberal view of communism as a project ...
Istoire de la Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier
'L'Istoire de la Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier', composee en prose au XVeme siecle et conservee dans un unique manuscrit, est un remaniement anonyme de 'La Chastelaine de Vergi', ce court poeme du XIIIeme siecle au succes incontestable. Cette version en prose narre, tout comme son modele en vers, les amours malheureuses d'un couple d'amants. Cependant, si l'Istoire de la 'Chastelaine du Vergier et de Tristan le Chevalier' parait, de prime abord, suivre d'une facon presque fidele son modele, il faut admettre qu'il existe un certain nombre de variations passant d'une version a l'autre. En effet, la version en prose ajoute des developpements absents dans celle en vers, ampli...
'Phosphorus Hollunder' Und 'Der Posten Der Frau' Von Louise Von Fran OIS
Louise von Francois (1817-1893) was a German writer of realist fiction and a contemporary of Fontane, Storm and Meyer. Her most famous novel, 'Die letzte Reckenburgerin' (1871), was regarded as one of the most innovative novels of the nineteenth century and attracted significant critical attention. Francois's novels and novellas are notable for their strong story lines, rich prose and psychological realism. Endorsing the values of honour and duty as prerequisites for the creation of a more equitable society, Francois shared with other literary figures of the period an antipathy toward class prejudice and religious intolerance. Despite Francois's didactic focus, however, her writing lacks nei...

Polnische Aufständische in Ost- und Westpreußen (1831-1833)
Um den Novemberaufstand in Polen (1830-1831), der mit einer Niederlage endete, rankt sich eine romantische Legende. Die letzten Etappen dieser Freiheitserhebung ereigneten sich in Ostund Westpreußen, diesen “vergessenen” Provinzen des preußischen Staates. Hier traf die geschlagene polnische Armee ein, hier mussten die Militärmitglieder über ihre Rückkehr ins Heimatland bzw. den Aufbruch in die Emigration entscheiden. Für viele Offiziere und Soldaten begann von hier aus der Weitermarsch nach Frankreich, begleitet vom begeisterten Empfang im liberalen Deutschland, von Polenvereinen und Polenliedern. Die meisten Internierten optierten für die Rückkehr ins Heimatland. Dort lebten ihr...

Automating Vision
Automating Vision explores the rise of seeing machines through four case studies: facial recognition, drone vision, mobile and locative media and driverless cars. Proposing a conceptual lens of camera consciousness, which is drawn from the early visual anthropology of Gregory Bateson and Margaret Mead, Automating Vision accounts for the growing power and value of camera technologies and digital image processing. Behind the smart camera devices examined throughout the book lies a set of increasingly integrated and automated technologies underpinned by artificial intelligence, machine learning and image processing. Seeing machines are now implicated in growing visual data markets and are suppo...
