Book Women and Indian Shakespeares

Download or read book Women and Indian Shakespeares written by Thea Buckley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and Indian Shakespeares explores the multiple ways in which women, and those identifying as women, are, and have been, engaged with Shakespeare in India. Women's engagements encompass the full range of media, from translation to cinematic adaptation and from early colonial performance to contemporary theatrical experiment. Simultaneously, Women and Indian Shakespeares makes visible the ways in which women are figured in various representational registers as resistant agents, martial seductresses, redemptive daughters, victims of caste discrimination, conflicted spaces and global citizens. In so doing, the collection reorients existing lines of investigation, extends the disciplinary field, brings into visibility still occluded subjects and opens up radical readings. More broadly, the collection identifies how, in Indian Shakespeares on page, stage and screen, women increasingly possess the ability to shape alternative futures across patriarchal and societal barriers of race, caste, religion and class. In repeated iterations, the collection turns our attention to localized modes of adaptation that enable opportunities for women while celebrating Shakespeare's gendered interactions in India's rapidly changing, and increasingly globalized, cultural, economic and political environment. In the contributions, we see a transformed Shakespeare, a playwright who appears differently when seen through the gendered eyes of a new Indian, diasporic and global generation of critics, historians, archivists, practitioners and directors. Radically imagining Indian Shakespeares with women at the centre, Women and Indian Shakespeares interweaves history, regional geography/regionality, language and the present day to establish a record of women as creators and adapters of Shakespeare in Indian contexts.

Book Contemporary Readings in Global Performances of Shakespeare

Download or read book Contemporary Readings in Global Performances of Shakespeare written by Alexa Alice Joubin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-10-03 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise guide to global performances of Shakespeare, this volume combines methodologies of dramaturgy, film and performance studies, critical race and gender studies and anthropological thick description. This companion guides students from critical methodologies through big pictures of global Shakespeare to case studies that employ these methodologies. It uses a site-specific lens to examine global performances of Shakespeare on stage, on radio and on screen. As well as featuring methodological chapters on modernist adaptations, global cinema, multilingual productions and Shakespeare in translation, the volume includes short histories of adaptations of Shakespeare in Southeast Asia, Latin America, the Arab world, India, the Slavic world, Iran, Afghanistan and the Farsi-speaking diaspora. It uses these micro-historical narratives to demonstrate the value of local knowledge by analysing the relationships between Shakespeare and his modern interlocutors. Finally, thematically organized case studies apply the methodologies to analyse key productions in Brazil, Korea, Yemen, Kuwait, China and elsewhere. The final chapter considers pedagogical strategies in a global setting. These chapters showcase the how of global Shakespeare studies: how do minoritized artists and audiences engage with Shakespeare? And how do we analyse the diverse and polyphonic performances with an eye towards equity and social justice?

Book Facets of Globalisation

Download or read book Facets of Globalisation written by Holger Rossow and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, ‘anglistik & englischunterricht’ has been devoted to the exploration of a wide range of questions within the field of British and American culture and the teaching of culture. The objective of the first volume on globalisation is to provide a diverse approach to the problem area of globalisation, which, perhaps more than any other issue, needs to be addressed from a wide variety of disciplinary perspectives. It is, however, also self-evident that the number of specific questions to be covered within the scope of this volume is necessarily very limited and cannot serve as a systematic introduction to a problem area that, by definition, defies any such endeavour. Therefore, the publication offers a selection of contributions from linguistic, literary, film and cultural studies with a partly strong focus on teaching on secondary and tertiary levels. The volume should offer valuable insights not only for teachers at schools and universities but also for the interested public.

Book Crisis Communication Cases from Asia

Download or read book Crisis Communication Cases from Asia written by Krishnamurthy Sriramesh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-04 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes crisis communication in Asia, focusing on how culture (broadly defined) plays a central role in the way a crisis develops and is resolved. Using the case study method, this book offers the reader glimpses of the variety of cultures in the continent, displaying the complexity of the cross-cultural process of conducting crisis communication in this diverse environment. Each of these cases addresses the onset, evolution, and resolution of the crisis. The contributors are seasoned practitioners who have done crisis communication work in this continent and have used the same framework of five environmental variables that define culture in this book: political culture, economic systems, societal culture, media systems, and activist environments. This edited volume is ideal for scholars and advanced students in public relations and strategic communication generally and crisis communication specifically.

Book Handschrift im Druck  ca  1500   1800

Download or read book Handschrift im Druck ca 1500 1800 written by Sylvia Brockstieger and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dem Neben- und Miteinander von Hand- und Druckschriftlichkeit in der Frühen Neuzeit bis in die Goethezeit ist in der Forschung bisher nur ungenügend Beachtung geschenkt worden. Der Übergang von der Hand- zur Druckschriftlichkeit ‚nach Gutenberg‘ wird gerne als ein Ablösungsprozess beschrieben; erst in der Zeit um 1800 nehme die Handschrift im Lichte neuer Autorschafts- und Individualitätskonzepte neuen, auratischen Charakter an. Der Band argumentiert in Fallstudien für eine neue Aufmerksamkeit für die zahlreichen Interferenzphänomene von Handschrift und Druck, die die unterschiedlichsten Formen und Funktionen annehmen können. Er fokussiert besonders handschriftliche Interventionen in gedruckten Büchern: Diese brechen den durch den Druck fixierten Text auf, indem sie ihn kommentieren, korrigieren oder erweitern. Sie weisen auf veränderte Gebrauchskontexte, die Flexibilisierung vermeintlich statischer Autorschaftskonzepte und die Dynamik von Korrekturprozessen. Der Band plädiert in der interdisziplinären Zusammenschau von Literatur-, Buch- und Geschichtswissenschaften für einen neuen, materialitätsorientierten Blick auf alte Fragen der Literaturgeschichte des Druckzeitalters.

He discovers Goa’s literati sipping cashew feni with Orhan Pamuk and Amitav Ghosh, and finds two of his favourite foods—mushrooms and cheese— in Bhutan’s shamudatsi. Whether you’re a lover of Indian cuisine, at home or abroad, or a wanderer seeking inspiration for your own voyage of discovery, this multi-course meal promises many delightful surprises about India’s delicacies, their origins and their locales. O’Yeah captures India in a nutshell—a big, coconut-sized one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success in the fabrication of structures at the nanometer length scale has opened up a new horizon to condensed matter physics: the study of quantum phenomena in confined boxes, wires, rings, etc. A new class of electronic devices based on this physics has been proposed, with the promise of a new functionality for ultrafast and/or ultradense electronic circuits. Such applications demand highly sophisticated fabrication techniques, the crucial one being lithography. Nanolithography contains updated reviews by major experts on the well established techniques -- electron beam lithography (EBL), X-ray lithography (XRL), ion beam lithography (IBL) -- as well as on emergent techniques, such as scanning tunnelling lithography (STL).

From the Indian male s penchant for public urination to the Indian female s obsession with gold, from the jhatkas of Bollywood to the melas of Allahabad, from our embarrassingly frank matrimonials to how seriously we take our copulation problems, nothing is spared scrutiny. And because we Indians like a little something extra over and above what we are promised, we are giving away a complimentary copy of Extra! a little book that tackles all those peculiar Indian qualities that we didn t want to leave out of the Indian Essentials. Dip into this collection and join us to find out what it means to be Made in India.
