Intra- and Interlingual Translation in Flux

Intra- and Interlingual Translation in Flux

This book extends new lines of inquiry on intra- and interlingual translation building on Jakobson’s classification of translational relations to take into account the full complexity of language and the role of social dimensions in fostering linguistic unity and identity. Jovanović argues that intra- and interlingual translation do not form a stable relationship but in fact are both contingent on how languages and their borders are defined. Chapters unpack the causes and effects of this instability through the lens of Serbo- Croatian literature where the impact of sociopolitical pressure on language over time can be keenly observed. Drawing on work from translation studies sociolinguistics close reading distant reading and discourse analysis Jovanović charts how linguistic fluidity where linguistic borders are challenged at both the macro and the micro level as a result of sociopolitical change in turns shapes literary and cultural circulation. In its examination of the intersection of the linguistic and social in translational relations in the Serbo- Croatian context the book can offer wider insights into better understanding the literary and translational landscape of analogous sociolinguistic and geographic milieus. This volume will be of interest to scholars in literary translation translation theory sociology of translation comparative literature and multilingualism. | Intra- and Interlingual Translation in Flux

Movers and Makers Uncertainty Resilience and Migrant Creativity in Worlds of Flux

Movers and Makers Uncertainty Resilience and Migrant Creativity in Worlds of Flux

We live in times of extreme change. There could be no better time than now to interrogate the lives of new kinds of people movers and makers who navigate fragility and uncertainty to create with daring often against great odds. Parminder Bhachu uses their dramatic life stories to uncover what makes for creativity and resilience in times of disequilibrium. What can be learnt from their creative moxie as innovators outside establishment powers? Why has their creative reach grown exponentially in our globally connected twenty-first century? How have their abilities to innovate been catalyzed without subscription to knowledge hierarchies and monopolies? These culturally dexterous movers who possess movement capital advanced with every migration have translated ancient maker and craft skills into transforming modern technology science design architecture and the arts. Generous inclusive and deeply collaborative they are at the heart of open source sharing for collective intelligence the common good and the maker movement. They invigorate the economies they reside in greatly enhancing creative capacities and reach. Bhachu herself a multiple-migrant maker offers us a model for a hopeful way forward bringing her unique ethnographic insights to illuminate what can be learnt about thriving in worlds of flux. | Movers and Makers Uncertainty Resilience and Migrant Creativity in Worlds of Flux

Liquid Architecture Experimental Practices of Design in a State of Flux

Liquid Architecture Experimental Practices of Design in a State of Flux

Liquid Architecture challenges the idea of architecture as a fixed inert container and reconceptualises it as a body whose boundaries are rather blurred and ever-changing. This book moves away from form as the primary driver of spatial protocols and explores what the built environment might look like when viewed through the lenses of a ‘wet ontology’ that is attentive to fluidity flows and territorial dynamism. A reconfiguration of architectural materials and authorship is thus considered leading in turn to an exploration of the ethical dimensions of co-designing with natural systems (of various viscosities) through liquid paradigms. The book examines a set of principles for practice-led discoveries that incorporate hybrid mixed media with the author’s intersubjective relationship with liquid matter. Drawing from qualitative-based analytical investigation models the text allows comprehension of the liquid phenomena via material contextualisation of an ever-becoming research setting. Through a practical and theoretical engagement with the ontology of liquids the reader is exposed to a range of design-led experiments and creative propositions visualisation systems construction and testing of physical models that collectively translate into a series of novel insights for architectural agendas. This book will be of interest to architecture and design research students and academics because it advocates the need for a more symbiotic and resilient approach to natural systems which could benefit from the integration of regenerating material flows into our buildings and urban settlements. | Liquid Architecture Experimental Practices of Design in a State of Flux

New Music and the Crises of Materiality Sounding Bodies and Objects in Late Modernity

New Music and the Crises of Materiality Sounding Bodies and Objects in Late Modernity

This book explores the transformation of ideas of the material in late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century musical composition. New music of this era is argued to reflect a historical moment when the idea of materiality itself is in flux. Engaging with thinkers such as Theodor Adorno Sara Ahmed Zygmunt Bauman Rosi Braidotti and Timothy Morton the author considers music's relationship with changing material conditions from the rise of neo-liberalisms and information technologies to new concepts of the natural world. Drawing on musicology cultural theory and philosophy the author develops a critical understanding of musical bodies objects and the environments of their interaction. Music is grasped as something that both registers material changes in society whilst also enabling us to practice materiality differently. | New Music and the Crises of Materiality Sounding Bodies and Objects in Late Modernity

Mobility and Identity in US Genre Painting Painting at the Threshold

Mobility and Identity in US Genre Painting Painting at the Threshold

This book examines the portrayal of themes of boundary crossing itinerancy relocation and displacement in US genre paintings during the second half of the long nineteenth century (c. 1860–1910). Through four diachronic case studies the book reveals how the high-stakes politics of mobility and identity during this period informed the production and reception of works of art by Eastman Johnson (1824–1906) Enoch Wood Perry Jr. (1831–1915) Thomas Hovenden (1840–95) and John Sloan (1871–1951). It also complicates art history’s canonical understandings of genre painting as a category that seeks to reinforce social hierarchies and emphasize more rooted connections to place by instead privileging portrayals of social flux and geographic instability. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history literature American studies and cultural geography. | Mobility and Identity in US Genre Painting Painting at the Threshold

The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

The re-issuing of the four volumes of the author's writings is a major publishing event for psychoanalysts who are interested in both the theoretical and the therapeutic aspects of psychoanalysis. These volumes contain the author's pre-self psychology essays as well as those he wrote in order to continue to expand on his groundbreaking ideas which he presented in The Analysis of the Self; the Restoration of the Self; and in How Does Analysis Cure? These volumes of The Search for the Self permit the reader to understand not only the above three basic texts of psychoanalytic self psychology more profoundly but also to appreciate Kohut's sustained openness to further changes - to dare to present his self psychology as in continued flux influenced by newly emerging empirical data of actual clinical practice. The current re-issue of the four volumes of The Search for the Self would assure that the younger generation of psychoanalysts would be exposed to a clinical theory that could contribute greatly to solving the therapeutic dilemmas facing psychoanalysis today. This is volume four. | The Search for the Self Volume 4: Selected Writings of Heinz Kohut 1978-1981

The Practical Role of The EU’s Values in Diplomacy with China Complacency Self-Censorship and Misunderstanding

The Practical Role of The EU’s Values in Diplomacy with China Complacency Self-Censorship and Misunderstanding

Delivering a ground-breaking analysis of the EU’s diplomatic meetings (or dialogues) with China this book reveals how the EU’s values rarely feature in exchanges due to ingrained cultures of complacency and self-censorship amongst EU officials. Based on extensive interviews and focusing on individual perceptions and practices the book also highlights how intercultural misunderstanding and unreflective beliefs contribute to this troubling status quo with serious implications. Furthermore these dynamics run contrary to the Lisbon Treaty (2009) – where the EU states that its values inform its external relations – threatening the rules-based order that upholds the universal values and international norms the EU shares. At a time of flux in EU-China relations and geopolitical instability this book’s timely insights will be of great interest and value to scholars and practitioners alike. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European (Union) foreign policy and diplomacy EU-China relations Chinese foreign policy human rights diplomacy sustainable development trade policy and more broadly in European and Asian Studies and International Relations. | The Practical Role of The EU’s Values in Diplomacy with China Complacency Self-Censorship and Misunderstanding

Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity

Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity

The Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity brings the ecological turn to sociocultural understandings of self. The editors introduce a broad insightful assembly of original theory and research on planetary positionalities in flux in the Anthropocene – or what in this Handbook cultural ecologist David Abram presciently renames the Humilocene a new “epoch of humility. ” Forty international authors craft a kaleidoscopic lens focusing on the following key interdisciplinary inquiries:Part I illuminates identity as always ecocultural expanding dominant understandings of who we are and how our ways of identifying engender earthly outcomes. Part II examines ways ecocultural identities are fostered and how difference and spaces of interaction can be sources of environmental conviviality. Part III illustrates consequential ways the media sphere informs challenges and amplifies particular ecocultural identities. Part IV delves into the constitutive power of ecocultural identities and illuminates ways ecological forces shape the political sphere. Part V demonstrates multiple and unspooling ways in which ecocultural identities can evolve and transform to recall ways forward to reciprocal surviving and thriving. The Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity provides an essential resource for scholars teachers students protectors and practitioners interested in ecological and sociocultural regeneration.

Gendering Peace in Violent Peripheries Marginality Masculinity and Feminist Agency

Gendering Peace in Violent Peripheries Marginality Masculinity and Feminist Agency

This book forwards Assam (and Northeast India) as a specific location for studying operations of gendered power in multi-ethnic conflict-habituated geopolitical peripheries globally. In the shifting and relational margins of such peripheral societies power and agency are constantly negotiated and in flux. Notions of masculinity are redefined in an interlaced environment of militarization hyper-masculinization and gendered violence. These interconnections inform victimhood and agency among the most vulnerable marginalized constituencies – namely women and migrants. By centering the marginalized in its inquiry the book analyzes obstacles to achieving positive organic peace based on cooperation and mutual healing. The tools used to perpetuate an endless cycle of violence that makes conflict a habit – a way of life – are identified in order to enable resistance against them from within the margins. Such resistance must be based on reflexivity and strategic cautious radicalism. This involves critically interrogating the inherent connections between engendered pasts and feminist futures local changes and global contexts as well as between small incremental changes and big shifts impacting entire societies nations and global orders. This book will be of much interest to students of ethnic conflict conflict resolution feminist peace and Asian/South Asian politics. | Gendering Peace in Violent Peripheries Marginality Masculinity and Feminist Agency

Small Wars and Insurgencies in Theory and Practice 1500-1850

Small Wars and Insurgencies in Theory and Practice 1500-1850

In early modern times warfare in Europe took on many diverse and overlapping forms. Our modern notions of ‘regular’ and ‘irregular’ warfare of ‘major war’ and ‘small war’ have their roots in much greater diversity than such binary notions allow for. While insurgencies go back to time immemorial they have become conceptually fused with ‘small wars’. This is a term first used to denote special operations often carried out by military companies formed from special ethnic groups and then recruited into larger armies. In its Spanish form guerrilla the term ‘small war’ came to stand for an ideologically-motivated insurgency against the state authorities or occupying forces of another power. There is much overlap between the phenomena of irregular warfare in the sense of special operations alongside regular operations and irregular warfare of insurgents against the regular forces of a state. This book demonstrates how long the two phenomena were in flux and fed on each other from the raiding operations of the 16th century to the ‘small wars’ or special operations conducted by special units in the 19th century which existed alongside and could merge with a popular insurgency. This book is based on a special issue of the journal Small Wars & Insurgencies. | Small Wars and Insurgencies in Theory and Practice 1500-1850

Class in Turn-of-the-Century Novels of Gissing James Hardy and Wells

Class in Turn-of-the-Century Novels of Gissing James Hardy and Wells

This book argues that due to political and ideological shifts in the last decades of the nineteenth century-a time when the class system in England was in a state of flux-a new depiction of social class was possible in the English novel. Late-century writers such as Gissing James Hardy and Wells question the middle-class Victorian views of class that had dominated the novel for decades. By disrupting traditional novelistic conventions these writers reveal the ideology of the historical moment in which those conventions obtained thereby questioning the 'naturalness' of class assumed by earlier middle-class Victorian writers. The book contextualizes novels by these writers within their historical moment with reference to relevant maps journalism artwork or photography and specific historical events. It illuminates the relationship between fiction and history in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century fiction and especially the relationship between changing depictions of class and the development of realism. Examining the nineteenth-century English novel through the lens of social class allows the twenty-first century critic and student not only to understand the issues at stake in much Victorian fiction but also to recognize powerful present-day vestiges of this social class system. | Class in Turn-of-the-Century Novels of Gissing James Hardy and Wells

The Social-Emotional Learning Upgrade Merging SEL and Technology Curricula to Support Young Learners

The Social-Emotional Learning Upgrade Merging SEL and Technology Curricula to Support Young Learners

The Social-Emotional Learning Upgrade explores how today’s educators can connect two previously separated but important curricula in their schools: social-emotional learning (SEL) and educational technology. With schools’ SEL efforts pressed for time and resources and digital engagements often limited to skill development K-12 students risk being unprepared to sustain their well-being and personal opportunities in a rapidly changing technology-dependent world. Driven by a paradigm that synthesizes multicultural education and humanistic psychology this book readies educators to implement SEL curricula that will support young learners as they navigate constant social and technological flux and that will nurture their unique perceptions of reality their aspirations and their mental and physical health. Each chapter’s novel insights will help to mitigate both student disengagement and teacher demoralization enabling classroom pedagogies and the process of schooling to better align with the ways in which learners explore express and create meaning. Guiding pre-service teachers leaders and curriculum developers beyond common goals such as digital skills development content mastery or standardized testing this volume focuses instead on complex digital literacies collaborative experiences problem- and project-based learning culturally relevant pedagogies and overall holistic growth. | The Social-Emotional Learning Upgrade Merging SEL and Technology Curricula to Support Young Learners

The Future of Global Competition Ontological Security and Narratives in Chinese Iranian Russian and Venezuelan Media

The Future of Global Competition Ontological Security and Narratives in Chinese Iranian Russian and Venezuelan Media

With today’s social and geopolitical order in significant flux this project offers vital insight into the future global order by comparatively charting national media perceptions regarding the future of global competition through the lens of Ontological Security (OS). The authors employ a mixed-method approach to analyze 620 news articles from 47 Russian Chinese Venezuelan and Iranian news sources over a five-year period (2014-2019) quantitatively comparing the drivers of their visions while providing in-depth qualitative case studies for each nation. Not only do these narratives reveal how these four nations understand the current global order but also point to their (in)flexibility and agentic capacity for reflection in adapting even shaping the future order and their identity-roles within it around an economic and diplomatic battleground. The authors argue these narratives create trajectories with inertial effects grounded in their OS needs providing enduring insights into their behavior and interests moving into the future. The Future of Global Coopetition will help readers understand how influential nations typical aligned in opposition to the US envision the drivers of global competition and the make-up of the future international system. Those engaged in the study of media global politics international relations and communication will find this book to be a critical source. | The Future of Global Competition Ontological Security and Narratives in Chinese Iranian Russian and Venezuelan Media

The New Nationalism

The New Nationalism

Nationalism the state of mind in which the individual's supreme loyalty is owed to the nation-state remains the strongest of political emotions. As a historical phenomenon it is always in flux changing according to no preconceived pattern. In The New Nationalism Louis Snyder sees various forms of nationalism and categorizes them as a force for unity; a force for the status quo; a force for independence; a force for fraternity; a force for colonial expansion; a force for aggression; a force for economic expansion; and a force for anti-colonialism. In Snyder's opinion nationalism should be differentiated from Theodore Roosevelt's New Nationalism a phrase he borrowed from Herbert D. Croly's The Promise of American Life. Croly warned that giving too much power to big industry and finance would lead to the degradation of the masses and that state and federal intervention must be pursued on all economic fronts. Roosevelt expanded upon this concept and saw the flourishing of democratic government as a means of reviving the old pioneer sense of individualism and opportunity. Snyder in contrast extends the work of the two major pioneers in the study of modern nationalism Carlton J. H. Hayes and Hans Kohn in exploring this most powerful sentiment of modern times and showing how it relates to the political economic and psychological tendencies of historical development.

The Japanese LGBTQ+ Community in the World The COVID-19 Pandemic Challenges and the Prospects for the Future

The Japanese LGBTQ+ Community in the World The COVID-19 Pandemic Challenges and the Prospects for the Future

This study of the Japanese LGBTQ+ community sheds light on the intersectionality of lived experiences including gender sexuality family (mental) health race and ethnicity migration and nationality offering a picture of a community whose experience is deeply embedded in the dynamic society around. The Japanese LGBTQ+ Community in the World takes an innovative approach viewing the community as an integral part of the world in flux rather than an isolated monoracial and monolingual tight-knit entity. Like the US and many other countries in the world when the pandemic struck Japan its citizens were not all equally equipped to withstand it. Due particularly to lingering systemic injustices including stigma ostracism from family and society as well as lack of legal protection of their basic human rights the pandemic has disproportionately affected the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals and couples in Japan. They face unique challenges within various facets of their lives. Their experiences are an integral part of understanding how this pandemic is affecting a societal response to an already marginalized group of individuals. This important study looks at the issues from a range of perspectives including public health care services the media and cross-cultural experience. This book is ideal for students and scholars of gender studies LGBTQ studies sociology health and Asian studies. | The Japanese LGBTQ+ Community in the World The COVID-19 Pandemic Challenges and the Prospects for the Future
