Abstract:

Dedicated to the medina in the Mediterranean space, this book is essentially based on detailed historical and photographic research into the characteristics of city design and its evolution, as well as some case studies from direct experience. The main objective of the present study consists of its documentary and evocative value, without forgetting the analysis of the multiple architectural spaces with monumental complexes of extraordinary cultural importance arranged according to precise hierarchies and specific uses. The research summarises the different experiences from this immense Arab-M

Abstract:

This monograph sheds light on the problem of assessing and compensating for harm caused by damage to a citizen’s health. The author notes that when mentioning such harm, a modern civil scientist leads himself into a situation of “scientific dead end”, stating the special, extraordinary value of the basic intangible benefits of an individual and at the same time refusing to attempt to justify the parameters for its full and effective compensation. The stated approach fits into the formula “not to evaluate cannot be compensated”, constructed by analogy with the expression known to everyone from

Abstract:

This chapter examines constitutional provisions regarding emergency powers in India. It begins with an overview of the emergency provisions enumerated in Part XVIII of the Indian Constitution, with particular emphasis on three types of extraordinary situations. It then considers a curious feature of Part XVIII, the inclusion of Articles 356 and 360, which address failures of constitutional machinery in the States as well as threats to financial stability and credit. It also explores how Articles 352 and 356 have been interpreted over time, focusing on the extent of the executive power once an

Abstract:

‘A case of obsessional neurosis’ discusses the case of a patient that Sigmund Freud first met in 1907. This particular and complicated patient was known as ‘The Rat Man’. The patient faced a desperate internal situation and was also incredulous, as his analysis unfolded, that he could be so encumbered by thoughts and driven to actions that defied rational sense. Freud went to extraordinary lengths to grasp the ideas behind his patient’s apparently nonsensical activities, to trace his psychic history, and to understand how obsessional doubts governed his life. Freud’s 1923 model of the mind and

Abstract:

One of America's most noted contemporary novelists, John Irving has created a body of fiction of extraordinary range, moving with ease from romance to fairytale to thriller. Although his fiction follows in the tradition of the great 19th-century world novelists, he is a quintessential American writer—his novels are laced with broad humor, farce, and absurd situations. He does not hesitate to tackle the troubling issues that have faced our nation in the past few decades, such as war, racism, sexism, abortion, violence, and AIDS. This study offers a clear, accessible reading of Irving's fiction.

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

Abstract:

Chapter 7 investigates the meaning and use of Japanese counter-expectational scalar adverbs—that is, the counter-expectational intensifier yoppodo and the Japanese scale-reversal adverb kaette. It shows that although yoppodo and kaette convey some kind of counter-expectational meaning as lower-level pragmatic scalar modifiers, the way they trigger counter-expectational meaning is quite different. In an adjectival environment, yoppodo semantically intensifies degrees based on extraordinary evidence and conventionally implies that the degree is above the speaker’s expectation. By contrast, kaett

‘No one pitied him as he would have liked to be pitied.’ As Ivan Ilyich lies dying he begins to re-evaluate his life, searching for meaning that will make sense of his sufferings. In ‘The Death of Ivan Ilyich’ and the other works in this volume, Tolstoy conjures characters who, tested to the limit, reveal glorious and unexpected reserves of courage or baseness of a near inhuman kind. Two vivid parables and ‘The Forged Coupon’, a tale of criminality, explore class relations after the emancipation of the serfs in 1861 and the connection between an ethical life and worldly issues.

Abstract Singing Utopia offers an original and provocative account of singing voices in musical theatre. It listens to extraordinary voices across fifteen case studies, from Florodora to Hadestown, and hears an emotional and situational directness—a utopian sound which seems to escape the mundanity of everyday life. Yet, the very idea of the utopian is paradoxical, fraught with undercurrents of nostalgia, melancholy, and the perpetual threat of the dystopian. Singing Utopia also explores these facets and considers what it means for a musical to give voice to an imagined world which is always a

Abstract This book demonstrates how a group of tragedies by Shakespeare and his contemporaries stage the fear and exhilaration generated by encounters with the unknown and the extraordinary. Arguing that the maritime art of fathoming—that is, dropping a lead and line into water to measure its depth—operates as a master-image for these plays, it illustrates how they create sublime horror through intuitions of mysterious more-than-human agencies and of worlds beyond the visible. Though tightly focused on a specific body of imagery, the book strikes up dialogue with a number of critical fields, i
