This edited volume brings together authors across the world to share their ideas, views, contemplations, assessments and theories about disinformation and post-truth in literature and media from a multidisciplinary perspective. The book gives an idea as to how the emerging trend of truth crisis, fake news and manipulated information leads to ideological antagonism, ethical conflicts and geopolitical power struggles in society. It has got revealing chapters that discuss the propensity to inquire into the data that satisfies the overtones of the personal emotions and beliefs that undermines facts and truths. Being an observant set of structured ideas having twenty-seven chapters, the book discusses diverse domains such as conspiracy ideologies, alt-facts of the contemporary era, signs and science of truth, post-truth politics of gender, political advertisements, realism and hyperreality, fifth estate and the third space, posthuman pataphysics, performativity and fiction, media renunciation, identity dynamics, and cultural obliteration.
This book traces the beginnings of literary (narrative) journalism in Australia. It contributes to evolving international definitions of the form, while providing a glimpse into Australia’s early press history and development as a nation. The book comprises two parts. The first examines the forerunners of literary journalism before and during the establishment of a free press, including the letters, diaries and journals of the early colonists, as well as sketches published in the first magazines and newspapers. The book asks if these were “reporting” when there was no thriving press until well into the 19th century -- many were written by women and convicts whose voices otherwise went ...

Eating With History: Ancient Trade-Influenced Cuisines of Kerala is an invaluable compendium of a culinary tradition and variety of food recipes that evolved out of Kerala’s kitchens. The food trail is extensive and as varied as it can get. The proximity to the sea and the natural beauty and resources of the state–especially the fragrant spices which grew in abundance–attracted inhabitants of foreign soils and inspired them to initiate overseas trade along what was later known as the Spice Route. In a state with fish, other sea food and vegetables dominating people’s food habits, the various kinds of meats, foreign cooking techniques and exotic flavours were curried to life from fore...

The International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering, Science and Technology (ICETEST) was held at the Government Engineering College, Thrissur, Kerala, India, from 18th to 20th January 2018, with the theme, “Society, Energy and Environment”, covering related topics in the areas of Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electronics & Communication Engineering, Computer Science and Architecture. Conflict between energy and environment has been of global significance in recent years. Academic research needs to support the industry and society through socially and environmentally sustainable outcomes. ICETEST 2018 was organized with this specific objective. The conference provided a platform for researchers from different domains, to discuss and disseminate their findings. Outstanding speakers, faculties, and scholars from different parts of the world presented their research outcomes in modern technologies using sustainable technologies.
This edited volume provides an in-depth analysis of the role of literature and media in shaping ideologies, values, beliefs, culture and practices of society. The scholarly perspectives in the twenty-one chapters focus on the theoretical and conceptual explanations of power dominance, patriarchal panopticons, conflicts between science and religion, representations of the corrupt neocolonial world, human victimisations, cyborg women, caste oppressions, and ideological belief systems in society. Widening the new and number of different perspectives, the book also delineates inexorable patriarchal logic, conjugal power politics, social structures, pandemic quandary and market construction instituted by media and literature. The dominant climate of ideas expressed in the imaginative works, its interminable effects and vehement relationship with society are extended in multiple domains where the two disciplines, being the instructive and entertaining mirrors, encourage social cohesion and cultural transition.
