Book Authorship  s Wake

Download or read book Authorship s Wake written by Philip Sayers and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authorship's Wake examines the aftermath of the 1960s critique of the author, epitomized by Roland Barthes's essay, “The Death of the Author.” This critique has given rise to a body of writing that confounds generic distinctions separating the literary and the theoretical. Its archive consists of texts by writers who either directly participated in this critique, as Barthes did, or whose intellectual formation took place in its immediate aftermath. These writers include some who are known primarily as theorists (Judith Butler), others known primarily as novelists (Zadie Smith, David Foster Wallace), and yet others whose texts are difficult to categorize (the autofiction of Chris Kraus, Sheila Heti, and Ben Lerner; the autotheory of Maggie Nelson). These writers share not only a central motivating question – how to move beyond the critique of the author-subject – but also a way of answering it: by writing texts that merge theoretical concerns with literary discourse. Authorship's Wake traces the responses their work offers in relation to four themes: communication, intention, agency, and labor.

Book Authorship  Commerce and the Public

Download or read book Authorship Commerce and the Public written by E. Clery and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-10-02 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays explore the remarkable expansion of publishing from 1750 to 1850 which reflected the growth of literacy, and the diversification of the reading public. Experimentation with new genres, methods of advertising, marketing and dissemination, forms of critical reception and modes of access to writing are also examined in detail. This collection represents a new wave of critical writing extending cultural materialism beyond its accustomed concern with historicizing the words on the page into the economics of literature, and the investigation of neglected areas of print culture.

Book The Birth and Death of the Author

Download or read book The Birth and Death of the Author written by Andrew J. Power and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Birth and Death of the Author is a work about the changing nature of authorship as a concept. In eight specialist interventions by a diverse group of the finest international scholars it tells a history of print authorship in a set of author case studies from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century. The introduction surveys the prehistory of print authorship and sets the historical and theoretical framework that opens the discussion for the seven succeeding chapters. Engaging particularly with the history of the materials and technology of authorship it places this in conversation with the critical history of the author up to and beyond the crisis of Barthes' 'Death of the Author'. As a multi-authored history of authorship itself, each subsequent chapter takes a single author or work from every century since the advent of print and focuses in on the relationship between the author and the reader. Thus they explore the complexities of the concept of authorship in the works of Thomas Hoccleve and John Lydgate (Andrew Galloway, Cornell University), William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe (Rory Loughnane, University of Kent), John Taylor, "the Water Poet" (Edel Semple, University College Cork), Samuel Richardson (Natasha Simonova, University of Oxford), Herman Melville (and his reluctant scrivener ‘Bartleby’) (William E. Engel, Sewanee, The University of the South), James Joyce (Brad Tuggle, University of Alabama), and Grant Morrison (Darragh Greene, University College Dublin).

Book Shakespeare s Rise to Cultural Prominence

Download or read book Shakespeare s Rise to Cultural Prominence written by Emma Depledge and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shakespeare's rise to prominence was by no means inevitable. While he was popular in his lifetime, the number of new editions and revivals of his plays declined over the following decades. Emma Depledge uses the methodologies of book and theatre history to provide a re-assessment of the reputation and dissemination of Shakespeare during the Interregnum and Restoration. She demonstrates the crucial role of the Exclusion Crisis (1678–1682), a political crisis over the royal succession, as a foundational moment in Shakespeare's canonisation. The period saw a sudden surge of theatrical alterations and a significantly increased rate of new editions and stage revivals. In the wake of the Exclusion Crisis, Shakespeare's plays were made available on a scale not witnessed since the early seventeenth century, thus reversing what might otherwise have been a permanent disappearance of his drama from canonical familiarity and firmly establishing Shakespeare's work in the national cultural imagination.

Book Following Sexual Abuse

Download or read book Following Sexual Abuse written by Marie C. Croll and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2008-03-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual abuse is a subject that has received and continues to attract a considerable amount of scholarly attention. However, most studies tend to treat sexual abuse as strictly personal and isolated suffering. Following Sexual Abuse attempts to develop a broader perspective on this important issue via narrated accounts of women’s experiences. It is a sociological investigation that looks at the connection between the intra-personal and social worlds of victims as revealed through reflexive therapy. Marie C. Croll explores the transformational space between intra-personal and social experiences of self, a dual perspective that allows room for both personal and collective experiences to enter into a discussion of sexual abuse and its effects. She argues that private and public interpretations need to be considered together as their influences on the individual are inseparable. Using individual case studies, Croll demonstrates the extent to which variable public perspectives on sexual abuse come to define victims’ relationships to their own accounts. Following Sexual Abuse offers vital sociological insights and contributes a necessary intra-personal vantage point to the experience of sexual abuse and reflexive therapy.

Download or read book Performing Copyright written by Luke McDonagh and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on empirical research, this innovative book explores issues of performativity and authorship in the theatre world under copyright law and addresses several inter-connected questions: who is the author and first owner of a dramatic work? Who gets the credit and the licensing rights? What rights do the performers of the work have? Given the nature of theatre as a medium reliant on the re-use of prior existing works, tropes, themes and plots, what happens if an allegation of copyright infringement is made against a playwright? Furthermore, who possesses moral rights over the work? To evaluate these questions in the context of theatre, the first part of the book examines the history of the dramatic work both as text and as performative work. The second part explores the notions of authorship and joint authorship under copyright law as they apply to the actual process of creating plays, referring to legal and theatrical literature, as well as empirical research. The third part looks at the notion of copyright infringement in the context of theatre, noting that cases of alleged theatrical infringement reach the courts comparatively rarely in comparison with music cases, and assessing the reasons for this with respect to empirical research. The fourth part examines the way moral rights of attribution and integrity work in the context of theatre. The book concludes with a prescriptive comment on how law should respond to the challenges provided by the theatrical context, and how theatre should respond to law. Very original and innovative, this book proposes a ground-breaking empirical approach to study the implications of copyright law in society and makes a wonderful case for the need to consider the reciprocal influence between law and practice.

Book Deep Learning Methods and Applications in Brain Imaging for the Diagnosis of Neurological and Psychiatric Disorders

Download or read book Deep Learning Methods and Applications in Brain Imaging for the Diagnosis of Neurological and Psychiatric Disorders written by Hao Zhang and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-10-14 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brain imaging has been successfully used to generate image-based biomarkers for various neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and related dementias, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury, brain tumors, depression, schizophrenia, etc. However, accurate brain image-based diagnosis at the individual level remains elusive, and this applies to the diagnosis of neuropathological diseases as well as clinical syndromes. In recent years, deep learning techniques, due to their ability to learn complex patterns from large amounts of data, have had remarkable success in various fields, such as computer vision and natural language processing. Applying deep learning methods to brain imaging-assisted diagnosis, while promising, is facing challenges such as insufficiently labeled data, difficulty in interpreting diagnosis results, variations in data acquisition in multi-site projects, integration of multimodal data, clinical heterogeneity, etc. The goal of this research topic is to gather cutting-edge research that showcases the application of deep learning methods in brain imaging for the diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disorders. We encourage submissions that demonstrate novel approaches to overcome various abovementioned difficulties and achieve more accurate, reliable, generalizable, and interpretable diagnosis of neurological and psychiatric disorders in this field.
