Abstract:

al-Naḫl yamūtu wāqifan (Palm Trees Wither Upright) is the first work by Tunisian writer Ibrāhīm Darġūṯī, born in El-Mahassen (Tozeur) in 1955, proponent of the experimentalism and magical realism, and known all over the Arab world for his pungent writing style. The work was published in Sfax in 1989, and is a collection of short stories devoted to the local life of al-Ǧarīd region, in southern Tunisia; to its traditions, distinctive traits and, at times, to imagination, creating a unique mixture, which is representative of Darġūṯī’s literature. Men, the desert, and palm trees are the essential

Abstract:

This chapter examines the policies that have been adopted to strike a balance between the twin objectives of labour market flexibility and enhanced job quality in the context of the regulation of part-time work and fixed-term work. It discusses the benefits and drawbacks of part-time and fixed-term working: for workers the flexibility which accompanies such positions can enable them to secure working hours that are tailored around their domestic and social responsibilities; however, such work often comes at a cost in terms of low pay, low status, and insecurity. These working patterns are attr

Abstract:

A patient may have spent years building defences against areas of anxiety and psychic pain; getting past them may take some time. To facilitate analysis, Freud proposed use of a fixed duration (the session) and reliable, regular location (the consulting room) ensuring privacy. ‘Analytic space, time, and technique’ explores features of time, space, and distance in this unusual setting, and highlights technique. It considers how analysts work, some dos, don’ts, and divisive experiments, and answers several questions: why are treatments often fixed-time sessions? Why do patients lie down on a cou

This commentary analyses Article 6.2.3 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning the effects of hardship. In case of hardship, Art 6.2.3 stipulates that the disadvantaged party is entitled to request renegotiations. The request does not entitle the disadvantaged party to withhold performance. Upon failure to reach agreement within a reasonable time, either party may resort to the court. If the court finds hardship it may either terminate the contract at a date and on terms to be fixed or adapt the contract with a view to restoring its equilibrium. This

Abstract:

A Requiem for Edward Snowden is a 50-minute audio-visual work by Matthew Collings and Jules Rawlinson which addresses surveillance, data privacy, loss of faith, moral choice, and personal sacrifice in an environment where we are totally reliant on electronic communication and daily routines; and in which our privacy is routinely compromised. The work is performed by a chamber trio comprising violin, cello and clarinet, with live electronics and live visuals. The work is multi-layered and textured, both sonically and visually, and includes computer generated, fixed-media and live captured image

It focuses on her first poetry collection, Poema en veinte surcos (Poem in Twenty Furrows, 1938), where she creates images of routes, travel, and water as a way to escape containment. In Poema en veinte surcos, Burgos experimented with various styles of writing prevalent among Puerto Rican writers of the time, including telurismo and neocriollismo, the negrista poetry of Luis Palés Matos, and the eroticism of Luis Lloréns Torres.

Theoretical physics is a cornerstone of modern physics and provides a foundation for all modern quantitative science. It aims to describe all natural phenomena using mathematical theories and models and, in consequence, develops our understanding of the fundamental nature of the universe. This book offers an overview of major areas covering the recent developments in modern theoretical physics. Each chapter introduces a new key topic, and develops the discussion in a self-contained manner. At the same time, the selected topics have common themes running throughout the book, which connect the i

The methodology for estimating wage returns is critically discussed. Whilst much attention has been devoted to considering ability bias, other issues have received less attention. In particular qualifications or amounts of time spent studying are imperfect proxies for skills produced. Furthermore estimates from wage

Abstract:

Performing Shakespearean Appropriations explores the production and consumption of Shakespeare in acts of adaptation and appropriation across time periods and through a range of performance topics. The ten essays, moving from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century, address uses of Shakespeare in the novel, television, cinema, and digital media. Drawing on Christy Desmet's work, several contributors figure appropriation as a posthumanist enterprise that engages with electronic Shakespeare by dismantling, reassembling, and recreating Shakespearean texts in and for digital platforms.

Abstract:

In a time of great need for Britain, a small coterie of influential businessmen gained access to secret information on industrial mobilisation as advisers to the Principal Supply Officers Committee. They provided the state with priceless advice, but, as “insiders” utilised their access to information to build a business empire at a fraction of the normal costs. Outsiders, in contrast, lacked influence and were forced together into a defensive “ring” – or cartel – which effectively fixed prices for British warships. By the 1930s, the cartel grew into one of the most sophisticated profiteering g

Abstract:

The 120 years between Henry Fielding's Tom Jones (1749) and George Eliot's Middlemarch (1871) marked both the rise of the novel and the shift from the presumption of a stable, universal human nature to one that changes over time. This book reorients our understanding of the novel's formation during its cultural ascendancy, arguing that fiction produced new knowledge in a period characterized by the interplay between literary and scientific discourses—even as the two were separating into distinct domains. The book focuses on several crisis points: the contentious formation of a natural history

This book recovers the neglected narrative of women’s call to preach through the historical accounts and rhetorical witness of four groundbreaking women preachers: Jarena Lee, Frances Willard, Louisa Woosley, and Florence Spearing Randolph.

Abstract This book was born of an interest in debates about ‘gnosis’. The subject was inspired by certain analogies between the construction of heresy and the representation of madness described by Michel Foucault in Histoire de la folie à l’âge classique (Madness and Civilization). In different periods one can discern the decision to separate normal from abnormal, the suppression of the voice of the other, the constitution of rationality by means of exclusion. An examination of the ancient sources, on the other hand, confirmed the reversal in the pioneering work of Walter Bauer (1934). Contra

In a cathartic process, the poetic persona gazes outside his window, a narrow spaces’ view that creates an egregore of love.

The work of Raymond Queneau, who is usually regarded as avoiding making political statements, presents a fruitful case for examining how a civilian writer critiques the transmission of news of war through formal procedures. In poems that explore civilian witnessing and reception of war news, the figure of a solitary reader hunched over a newspaper during a political crisis appears at the same time as Queneau experiments with forms drawn from classical rhetoric (like the progymnasmata, a handbook of rhetorical exercises) and with journalistic formulae (like the fait divers).

It is known that these related to mathematical and astronomical matters; the extent to which these contacts also influenced his philosophical thought is a matter of some controversy.
