The Many Facets of Storytelling: Global Reflections on Narrative Complexity
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. The Many Facets of Storytelling: Global Reflections on Narrative Complexity explores a range of issues around narratives and their uses in various contexts and aspects of life. The premise for this volume is that human beings are storytelling creatures and stories or narratives are part of our daily lives and have been for centuries. From this starting point, the authors in this volume offer their explorations, reflections and findings from research and practice across disciplines and continents. Certain functions of stories are uncovered - education, social change and identity formation, for example. Some specific uses of narratives are investigated, such as in research methodology and representations in the media. Finally, other narratives are offered for themselves, as performances and (auto)biographical reflections. The chapters in this volume illustrate the many meanings of storytelling, and thus account for the layers of complexity that are inevitable when we discuss narratives.
Desire, Performance, and Classification: Critical Perspectives on the Erotic
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. In November 2011, artists, professors, students, and scholars from around the world gathered in Prague, Czech Republic, to attempt to define what could be considered the erotic. The conference sought submissions that addressed interactions of the erotic with history, art, literature, practices, performances, pedagogy, and sexuality, among many others. This wide focus brought together an intellectually rich meeting that interrogated the boundaries between eroticism, sex, and desire. This volume represents a sampling of papers presented at the conference, and the diverse focuses within these papers are indicative of the inter- and trans-disciplinary work that was presented. Each work within this collection brings a fresh and unique approach to the erotic and, in its own way, tries to answer the question, ‘What is erotic?’
Tutti i vivi all'assalto
Vent’anni dopo la prima edizione, Tutti i vivi all’assalto ritorna con l’aggiunta di tre capitoli per raccontare che cosa furono per gli alpini sopravvissuti la prigionia in Urss, le epidemie nei campi, il ritorno in un’Italia spesso matrigna. Dal 17 al 31 gennaio 1943 la Tridentina, la Cuneense e la Julia affrontano centinaia e centinaia di chilometri nella neve per sottrarsi all’Armata Rossa, che ha appena sopraffatto le truppe tedesche a Stalingrado. A guidare la marcia sulla neve degli alpini, ai quali si è accodata la Vicenza, è soprattutto il desiderio di ritornare «a baita» piú che l’amor di patria. Li guida la fedeltà ai monti e alle valli da cui provengono. Si camm...
The Routledge Handbook of Classics and Queer Theory
New directions in queer theory continue to trouble the boundaries of both queerness and the classical, leading to an explosion of new work in the vast—and increasingly uncharted—intersection between these disciplines, which this interdisciplinary volume seeks to explore. This handbook convenes an international group of experts who work on the classical world and queer theory. The discipline of Classics has been involved with, and implicated in, queer theory from the start. By placing front and center the rejection of heteronormativity, queer theory has provided Classics with a powerful tool for analyzing non-normative sexual and gender relations in the ancient West, while Classics offers...
