Abstract:

Claude III Audran, Arbiter of the French Arabesque is the first substantial biographical study of Claude III Audran, a late 17th- and early 18th-century master of ornament and a proponent of cutting-edge design who took inspiration from contemporary sources. This work investigates Audran’s accomplishments and the factors that impacted the longevity and arc of his successful career, taking into consideration the contextual variables that influenced and shaped his work. Audran’s achievements bridge an important period with the eclipse of the Guild Maîtrise and the rise of the Académie royale. Au

Abstract:

Music already tells a story. Any good teacher always talks about the shape of the phrase and how that individual moment relates to the whole picture. There’s an arc to a piece of music, just like in classical theatre where there’s a beginning, a middle and an end, and within those three essential areas of any form of expression there’s a presentation of themes and variations, recapitulation, ...

Abstract:

Voltaire was a poet first and foremost, in his own eyes as well as in the eyes of his contemporaries, and throughout his long life he never stopped writing verse. ‘The Epicurean poet’ explains how Epicureanism shaped Voltaire’s thinking and how he took a paradoxical stance in the Quarrel of the Ancients and Moderns. It describes his early epic poem La Henriade and his libertine verse such as La Pucelle, a bawdy mock epic poem about Joan of Arc. It also discusses his poem Stances à Mme Du Châtelet, composed in 1741, which typifies Voltaire’s lyric voice at its most persuasive.

Abstract:

How do the moments that comprise a human life appear through the kaleidoscopic lens of China’s changing modes of literary expression? Many of the writings we have in our possession evince a profound sense of “timeliness”: an awareness of how life events may or may not correspond with the larger, and doubtless much more impersonal, processes of cosmic, historical, or physiological change. Beginning with some of the foundational philosophical texts of the pre-Qin period and proceeding through a range of genres, including biographies, essays, poems, and stories, this chapter will follow the natur

Abstract:

The eight field trips in this volume, associated with GSA Connects 2021 held in Portland, Oregon, USA, reflect the rich and varied geological legacy of the Pacific Northwest. The western margin of North America has had a complex subduction and transform history throughout the Phanerozoic, building a collage of terranes. The terrain has been modified by Cenozoic sedimentation, magmatism, and faulting related to Cascadia subduction, passage of the Yellowstone hot spot, and north and westward propagation of the Basin and Range province. The youngest flood basalt province on Earth also inundated t

Abstract:

This chapter examines the relationship between blackness, queer vulnerability, and the mechanics of movement and dance. It uses anecdotes to make an argument for downward movement and concaveness as movement techniques, responses to the physical threats intrinsic to black ontology. It examines the relationship between those movements and shapes in the black body to an emergent style of performance called “queer dance.” This relationship might be identified as a type of “freak technique”—and always already othered practice. The chapter also considers a more familiar relationship to gravity in t

Abstract:

This book reconsiders the history and study of women’s documentary filmmaking in the United States from 1920 to 1940, and during the long 1970s--when significant transformations in cinematic technologies coincided with major transformations in sociopolitical discourses surrounding gender and race. Rather than comprehensive, the approach is transhistorical, setting women’s cultural expression during these two periods into conversation, and thereby provoking a reconsideration of a number of key debates about subjectivity, feminism, realism, and documentary that have had lasting epistemological a

Abstract:

African Independence is a dynamic discussion of how African history shapes world events today. Africa has played a major role in human history, and it is impossible to understand the present condition of humanity, or our future without a consideration of Africa. Although Africa is often portrayed as a remote and impoverished area, remembered for the suffering of its people, it has played an important role in world history that is critical for understanding global events today. Tukufu Zuberi walks readers through the years of African independence through the present. The documentary discusses c

Journeys of Desire offers for the first time, a comprehensive critical guide to European actors in American film, bringing together 15 overview chapters with A-Z entries on over 900 individuals in one accessible and scholarly volume. Since the early days of the US film industry, European actors have consistently been a major force in Hollywood. Screen idols such as Charlie Chaplin, Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Charles Boyer, Audrey Hepburn, Maurice Chevalier, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Antonio Banderas, as well as scores of more modest players, have profoundly shaped 'American' cinema.

Abstract:

Why does Stanley Cavell’s philosophical thought matter for music? And how did Cavell’s musical practice and appreciation of music give shape to his indelible philosophical claims about cinema, human speech, opera, the expression of skepticism, and ordinary language philosophy? Music with Stanley Cavell in Mindprovides a first-of-its-kind intervention by leading philosophers and scholars of music into an intellectual landscape in need of such charting. As a performer who then trained as a philosopher, the arc of Cavell’s wide-ranging investigation of music maps consistently with a proximate con

Abstract:

Bringing together leading scholars, practitioners, and critics of human rights from a variety of disciplines, this book of essays takes as its inspiration and provocation, the forty-year career of Professor Philip Alston as an international human rights advocate, scholar, teacher, and influential participant in the making of the contemporary human rights system. Alston has recently contended that the challenges facing human rights today require us to ‘urgently rethink many of [our] assumptions, re-evaluate [our] strategies, and broaden [our] outreach, while not giving up on the basic principle

The first full treatment of truth as a core philosophical concept in the late Foucault, this volume examines his work on the ancient world and the early church. Each essay features a deep examination as to how the topics of truth and sexuality intersect with and focus on Foucault’s engagement with ancient philosophy and thought. Truth in the Late Foucault offers readings on Plato, Artemidorus, Cicero, Sophocles and the Stoics, and pays close attention to Cassian, Paulinus of Nola, and early Christian practices of confession.

Anchored in the author's personal experience, Wisdom for Separated Parents: Rearranging Around the Children to Keep Kinship Strong traces the long arc of family change through the actual words of men and women who have struggled through separation and co-parenting.

Abstract:

This book offers a reappreciation and revisiting of existential philosophy—and in particular of Karl Jaspers’s philosophy—for media theory in order to remedy the existential deficit in the field. The book thereby also offers an introduction to the young field of existential media studies. Jaspers’s concept of the limit situation is chosen as a privileged reality which allows for bringing limits, in all their shapes and forms, onto the radar when interrogating digital existence. Despite their all-pervasiveness the book argues that media speak to and about limits and limitations in a variety of
