Theatre in the Context of the Yugoslav Wars
This book assembles texts by renowned academics and theatre artists who were professionally active during the wars in former Yugoslavia. It examines examples of how various forms of theatre and performance reacted to the conflicts in Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, and Kosovo while they were ongoing. It explores state-funded National Theatre activities between escapism and denial, the theatre aesthetics of protest and resistance, and symptomatic shifts and transformations in the production of theatre under wartime circumstances, both in theory and in practice. In addition, it looks beyond the period of conflict itself, examining the aftermath of war in contemporary theatre...

El libro tachado
Nada le gusta más a un escritor que relatar las tragedias de otros escritores. Qué peripecias sufrieron hasta la publicación o después, qué jugarretas les hicieron el editor o la familia, qué enfermedades, qué pérdidas sufrieron (se entiende que el escritor feliz, triunfador y amado es un personaje de ficción). Pero pocas veces este interés algo morboso se transforma en el libro extraordinario que está usted a punto de abrir. Porque para ello hace falta un escritor que lea (y esta obra es, por encima de todo, la demostración de fuerza de un escritor que lee). Y hace falta reflexionar a fondo sobre el futuro de la literatura, y sobre lo que nos enseñan los libros que no tenemos en la estantería: los censurados, tachados, quemados, prohibidos. Los que no escribieron los autores silenciados, bloqueados, dementes o suicidas. Y, con perdón, los que se plagiaron, se piratearon o se robaron. Este libro tachado no pretende ser una historia de la literatura, pero es la historia que un lector no puede dejar de leer.
The Extreme Centre
Against the centre ground Since 1989, politics has been a contest to see who can best serve the needs of the market. In this urgent and wideranging case for the prosecution, Tariq Ali looks at the people and events that have informed this development across the world. It is an investigation that reaches its logical conclusion with the presidency of Donald Trump, the success of En Marche! in France, and the dominance of Merkel’s Germany throughout Europe. In this fully updated edition of The Extreme Centre, Ali considers recent events that suggest, despite everything, that there is room for hope. He finds promise in Latin America and at the edges of Europe. Emerging parties in Scotland, Greece, and Spain, formed out of the 2008 crisis, are offering new promise for democracy. Even in the UK, with the rise of Jeremy Corbyn, there are indications that the hegemony of the centre may be weaker than imagined.
The Ages of the World
Schelling's never completed "masterpiece", translated here with an introduction covering Schelling's life, other works, and a brief analysis of The Ages of the World by Wirth (philosophy, Ogelthorpe U.), explores the question of time as the relationship between poetry and philosophy. Contemporary philosophers herald this work as a predecessor to the modern debates about post-modernity and the limits of dialectical thinking.

Plenum. Places of Power
Parliaments are both representative assemblies of the people and monuments of political and national identity. This catalogue for the Austrian contribution to the 14th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice features 196 national parliaments of the world. It fans out a comparison of the various messages to be conveyed by the architecture of parliament buildings: perpetuity, conformity with historical precedents or the fervent manifestation of a new beginning. However, neatly ordered by name and presented in a homogeneous fashion, their monumentality is somewhat lessened. The cold light of analysis brings forward numerous formal similarities of buildings that serve completely different political regimes.
