Abstract:

Two bodies of research focus on advice messages and interactions. Conversation analysts provide detailed descriptions of advice messages and interaction sequences in naturally occurring interactions. Supportive communication scholars theorize how advice message features influence recipients’ emotional, problem solving, and relational outcomes. The two research paradigms differ, and although both contribute to an understanding of advice messages and interactions, they remain relatively unintegrated. This chapter reviews major findings from each paradigm. To demonstrate the potential for integra

Abstract:

Successful communication requires optimal relevance to a target audience. Relevance theory (RT) provides an excellent model based on this insight, but the impact of the theory has until now been restricted due to an almost exclusive focus on spoken face-to-face communication. Visual and Multimodal Communication: Applying the Relevance Principle is the first book to systematically demonstrate how RT can fulfill its promise to develop into an inclusive theory of communication. In this book, Charles Forceville refines and adapts RT’s original claims to show its applicability to static visuals and

Abstract Balletti a cavallo, although little known today, emerged as valued dramatic entertainments in early modern Europe, capable of demonstrating the wealth and magnificence of the patrons who commissioned them and the horsemanship and military skills of the noblemen who rode in them. Although the horse ballet did not originate in Florence, that city—and its ruling grand dukes—acquired a reputation for excellence in the genre. Between 1608 and 1686 the court commissioned horse ballets to commemorate important state events such as Medici weddings or visits by foreign visitors. The noblemen i

Abstract:

This essay provides an overview of approaches to teaching interreligious studies and focuses on approaches to the study of some Qur’anic verses that have been given exclusivist interpretations. In this chapter, I demonstrate how and why I teach Qur’anic verses that have been considered hostile to the other. Most scholars, when discussing religious diversity in Islam, highlight verses that reach to the other, but they rarely address the seemingly exclusivist ones. Addressing these verses in the class helps students understand the broader message of Islam and also sheds light on how Muslim schol

While the Bible is often understood to forbid same-sex love, a closer examination reveals a wide variety of forms of same-sex love that are presupposed and even celebrated in these texts. After demonstrating that biblical texts taken to prohibit same-sex love have been misunderstood, the chapter explores multiple forms of same-sex love in the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament. Love between women in the story of Ruth, the expressions of warrior love in the stories of David and the centurion who came to Jesus, the transgendering of Israel in the prophets and the transgendering of Jesus and Sain

This book argues that nativism, the hostility especially to Catholic immigrants that led to the organization of political parties like the Know-Nothings, affected the meaning of nineteenth-century American art in ways that have gone unrecognized. In an era of industrialization, nativism’s erection of barriers to immigration appealed to artisans, a category that included most male artists at some stage in their career. But as importantly, its patriotic message about the nature of the American republic also overlapped with widely shared convictions about the necessity of democratic reform. Movem

Abstract:

This chapter opens by considering the accession of Jovian, a case study of how political expedient could dominate the tone and content of panegyrics. Themistius’ Oratio V presents Jovian’s humiliating peace with Persia in 363 as a victory for the Romans and as a legitimating tool for Jovian. The chapter then examines the usurpation of Procopius in 365, an incident treated by Themistius’ Oratio VII and Symmachus’ Oratio I. These two very different panegyrics demonstrate how their messages were crafted to the specific needs of the orator and the emperor whom they addressed. Themistius, represent

Abstract:

How jobseekers set their earnings expectations is central to job search models. To study this process, we track the evolution of own-earnings forecasts over 18 months for a representative panel of university-leavers in Mozambique and estimate the impact of a wage information intervention. We sent participants differentiated messages about the average earnings of their peers, obtained from prior survey rounds. Demonstrating the stickiness of (initially optimistic) beliefs, we find an elasticity of own-wage expectations to this news of around 7 per cent in the short term and 16 per cent over the

Abstract:

In The Avenging-Woman On-Screen: Female Empowerment and Feminist Possibilities, Lara C. Stache and Rachel D. Davidson demonstrate how the on-screen character of the avenging-woman offers a complex construction of femininity that serves as a representation of cultural conversations about female empowerment, female agency, and feminism. This character is both woman and hero, typically both physically appealing and physical aggressive—a dichotomy that goes against traditional gendered norms of femininity.

Paul’s consistent references to signs, wonders, visions, miracles, divine healings, speaking in tongues, and others, reflect ancient categories that Greek speakers called mantikē, goēteia, teratoskopia, and mageia. Such frequent references demonstrate that his teachings comprised divinatory practices as much as they consisted of messages regarding the resurrected Christ, eth

Although the main part of the book is framed by accounts of the racist discrimination Douglass faced on both his outward and return sea voyages, it does not offer a chronological narrative of his speaking engagements in Scotland.

Across Africa, artists increasingly turn to NGO sponsorship in pursuit of greater influence and funding, while simultaneously NGOs—both international and local—commission arts projects to buttress their interventions and achieve greater reach and marketability. As a result, the key values of artistic expression become “healing” and “sensitization” measured in turn by “impact” and “effectiveness.” Such rubrics obscure the aesthetic complexities of the artworks and the power dynamics that inform their production.
