Legend of Hedgehog Boy
The Legend of Hedgehog Boy, a 168 page comic book by writer & artist Rene Capone, conjures up all of the classic children's tales of young and lost souls fleeing into their imaginations in order to escape the cold, harsh nature of reality. And like Peter, Alice, and Dorothy before him, we're presented with a brash and courageous hero who doesn't submit to torment and strives to find freedom and happiness despite the predominant darkness of his past.This hero is Hedgehog Boy, a young man who escaped from an abusive home. The tormented child spent his nights huddled in a cold cellar and saw salvation only in the ultimate end of suicide. But before all was truly lost, he pulled himself back fro...
Any Given Moment
Prolific figure painter and independent LGBT artist. This 158 page full color collection is an overview of artists from 1999-2011. Capone created a body of narrative paintings that succinctly juxtaposes both eroticism and a lurking secrecy commonplace on the covers of childhood Nancy Drew Mystery books. Revealing a fragmented moment of action, his paintings work like incomplete mysteries that inspire us to finish the detailing. Rene Capone's art conveys a sense of wonder, exploration and discovery. Set against a fantastical world of mythical dreamscapes the figures in his work appear to be on a deeply personal quest for identity and their place in the world.
The Self-Regulation of Health and Illness Behaviour
Self-regulation theory focuses on the ways in which individuals direct and monitor their activities and emotions in order to attain their goals. It plays an increasingly important role in health psychology research. The Self-regulation of Health and Illness Behaviour presents an up-to-date account of the latest developments in the field. Individual contributions cover a wide range of issues including representational beliefs about chronic illness, cultural influences on illness representations, the role of anxiety and defensive denial in health-related experiences and behaviours, the contribution of personality, and the social dynamics underlying gender differences in adaptation to illness. Particular attention is given to the implications for designing effective health interventions and messages. Integrating theoretical and empirical developments, this text provides both researchers and professionals with a comprehensive review of self-regulation and health.
Hollywood Genres: Formulas, Filmmaking, and The Studio System
The central thesis of this book is that a genre approach provides the most effective means for understanding, analyzing and appreciating the Hollywood cinema. Taking into account not only the formal and aesthetic aspects of feature filmmaking, but various other cultural aspects as well, the genre approach treats movie production as a dynamic process of exchange between the film industry and its audience. This process, embodied by the Hollywood studio system, has been sustained primarily through genres, those popular narrative formulas like the Western, musical and gangster film, which have dominated the screen arts throughout this century.
