<p><strong>How "drowned town" literature, road movies, energy landscape photography, and "death train" narratives represent the brutality of industrial infrastructures.</strong></p> <p>In this book, Michael Truscello looks at the industrial infrastructure not as an invisible system of connectivity and mobility that keeps capitalism humming in the background but as a manufactured miasma of despair, toxicity, and death.

<p>William Shakespeare's 'The Tempest' is a masterful exploration of themes such as power, betrayal, and redemption, intricately woven into the fabric of a narrative set on a mysterious island. The play employs a rich tapestry of poetic language, blending elements of magical realism with Shakespeare'??s trademark philosophical depth. Characteristically, the dialogue reflects the Renaissance's humanist ideals while also incorporating motifs of colonialism and the interplay between civilization and nature, which were of considerable interest during the Elizabethan era. Shakespeare, widely regarded as one of the greatest playwrights in history, penned 'The Tempest' likely during his later years, a time marked by personal reflection and an evolving perspective on life and art. Drawing from his own experiences and the tumultuous political climate of his time, he crafts a narrative that resonates with issues of authority and reconciliation. The character of Prospero, a complex blend of magician, father, and ruler, serves as a direct mirror to Shakespeare'??s own creative struggles, making this work a poignant farewell to the stage. 'The Tempest' is not only a pivotal piece in the canon of English literature but also an invitation for readers to ponder profound questions about identity, agency, and the human condition. This enchanting play is recommended for those seeking to delve into the complexities of human experience, enriched by Shakespeare's unparalleled poetic expressiveness.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p>The essays selected for this book, presented in chronological order, discuss various aspects of image-making technologies, geometrical knowledge and tools for architectural design, focusing in particular on two historical periods marked by comparable patterns of technological and cultural change.

This issue in turn bears on the specific purposes of architectural design, where various representational tools and devices are used to visualize bi-dimensional aspects of objects that must be measured and eventually built in three-dimensional space.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Charles M. Schulz's <em>Peanuts</em> comic strip franchise, the most successful of all time, forever changed the industry. For more than half a century, the endearing, witty insights brought to life by Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus, and Lucy have caused newspaper readers and television viewers across the globe to laugh, sigh, gasp, and ponder. <em>A Charlie Brown Religion</em> explores one of the most provocative topics Schulz broached in his heartwarming work--religion.</p> <p>Based on new archival research and original interviews with Schulz's family, friends, and colleagues, author Stephen J. Lind offers a new spiritual biography of the life and work of the great comic strip artist. In his lifetime, aficionados and detractors both labeled Schulz as a fundamentalist Christian or as an atheist. Yet his deeply personal views on faith have eluded journalists and biographers for decades. Previously unpublished writings from Schulz will move fans as they begin to see the nuances of the humorist's own complex, intense journey toward understanding God and faith.</p> <p>"There are three things that I've learned never to discuss with people," Linus says, "Religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin." Yet with the support of religious communities, Schulz bravely defied convention and dared to express spiritual thought in the "funny pages," a secular, mainstream entertainment medium. This insightful, thorough study of the 17,897 <em>Peanuts</em> newspaper strips, seventy-five animated titles, and global merchandising empire will delight and intrigue as Schulz considers what it means to believe, what it means to doubt, and what it means to share faith with the world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Artificial Hells Participatory Art and the Politics of Spectatorship【電子書籍】[ Claire Bishop ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The award-winning, highly acclaimed <em>Artificial Hells</em> is the first historical and theoretical overview of socially engaged participatory art, known in the US as "social practice." In recent decades, the art gallery and the museum have become a place for participatory art, where an audience is encouraged to take part in the artwork. This has been heralded as a revolutionary practise that can promote new emancipatory social relations. What was it is really?</p> <p>In this fully updated edition, Claire Bishop follows the trajectory of twentieth-century art and examines key moments in the development of a participatory aesthetic. This itinerary takes in Futurism and Dada; the Situationist International; Happenings in Eastern Europe, Argentina and Paris; the 1970s Community Arts Movement; and the Artists Placement Group. It concludes with a discussion of long-term educational projects by contemporary artists such as Thomas Hirschhorn, Tania Bruguera, Pawel Althamer and Paul Chan.</p> <p>Bishop challenges the political and aesthetic ambitions of participatory art this practise. She not only scrutinizes the emancipatory claims, but also provides an alternative to the ethical (rather than artistic) criteria invited by such artworks. In response <em>Artificial Hells</em> calls for a less prescriptive approach to art and politics, and for more compelling, troubling and bolder forms of participatory art and criticism.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Democracy, Populism, and Neoliberalism in Ukraine On the Fringes of the Virtual and the Real【電子書籍】[ Olga Baysha ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book explores the reasons behind the unexpected rise to power of Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, a former comedian with no political background, and offers an in-depth analysis of the populist messages he delivered to the Ukrainian people via his TV show.</p> <p>Taking a discourse analysis approach, the author draws on two main arguments of critical scholarship: the “populist explosion” of the recent decade came as a reaction to the inequalities and injustices of the global neoliberal order, and the success of neoliberalism can be explained by its ability to mask itself under attractive progressive covers. Developing these lines of argument, the book demonstrates not only how the “populist explosion” can lead to further neoliberalization, but also that the euphemizing effect can be achieved by mixing the virtual and the real, as in the case of Zelensky.</p> <p>This first of its kind study will resonate with any scholar or upper-level student working on populism, neoliberalism, political communication, media studies, political science, European studies, Ukrainian studies, and discourse analysis.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
