Introductory essays and extensive editorial apparatus offer historical and cultural contexts of the materials included Throughout the long nineteenth-century a woman’s life was commonly thought to fall into three discrete developmental stages; personal formation and a gendered education; a young woman’s entrance onto the marriage market; and finally her emergence at the apogee of normative femininity as wife and mother. In all three stages of development there was an unspoken awareness of the duplicity at the heart of this carefully cultivated femininity. What women were taught no matter their age was that if you desired anything in life it behooved you to perform indifference. This meant that for women the art of flirtation and feigning indifference were viewed as essential survival skills that could guarantee success in life. These three volumes document the many ways in which nineteenth-century women were educated in this seemingly universal wisdom but just as frequently managed to manipulate subvert and navigate their way through such proscribed norms to achieve their own desires. Presenting a wide range of documents from novels memoirs literary journals newspapers plays poetry songs parlour games and legal documents this collection will illuminate a far more diverse set of options available to women in their quest for happiness and a new understanding of the operations of courtship and flirtation the central concerns of a nineteenth-century woman’s life.

The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Philanthropy and Humanitarianism This handbook builds a shared understanding of the troubling politics of philanthropy and the disturbing history and practices of humanitarianism. While historical work on philanthropy has long suggested a link between imperial rule and humanitarian aid these insights have only recently been brought to bear on contemporary forms of giving. In this book contributors link the long history of colonial philanthropy to current foundations and their programs in education health migrant care and other social initiatives. They argue that both philanthropy and humanitarianism often function to consolidate market rule consolidating and expanding liberal market rationalities of neoliberal entrepreneurialism to a widening population and set of institutions. Philanthropy and humanitarianism share a history growing together out of modernist socio-economic relations and modes of imperial rule. However the histories and contemporary politics of the two have not been brought together with such breadth or under such a critical lens before. Discussing philanthropy and humanitarianism together combining both historical scope and contemporary iterations highlights continuities and convergences—making the volume a unique introduction and critical overview of critical work in these sister-fields. | The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Philanthropy and Humanitarianism GBP 190.00 1

As a result this handbook provides scholars and students alike with relevant and applicable methodological and theoretical tools in addition to an extensive literature and research review for further research. | The Routledge Handbook of Music and Migration Theories and Methodologies GBP 205.00 1

Discourse Particles in Asian Languages Within linguistics there has been a great deal of interest in discourse particles for some time now especially within semantics and pragmatics. The term ‘discourse particles’ has been used to cover a broad range of phenomena including such things as ‘sentence final particles ’ ‘discourse adverbs’ and other related phenomena. However most research in the area (particularly within formal semantics and pragmatics) focuses on a restricted set of languages and there is little consensus on the proper formal treatment of particles partly due to the limited range of data available. In recent years there has been extensive development of the formal approach to discourse particles which often treats these words as devices for marking information update. Also important is the extension of data to non-Western languages like Japanese Korean or Chinese. These volumes are the first to give an exclusive focus on particles in non-European languages (in this case Asian languages) from the perspective of formal as well as non-formal semantics and pragmatics. These volumes include papers on Japanese Mandarin Tagalog Kimaragang Dusun Malay Singlish Thai and Vietnamese. The papers are informed by recent theoretical work in formal semantics and pragmatics relating to the meaning of particles. The collection contributes to our theoretical understanding of the meaning of discourse particles and to empirical knowledge of discourse particles in the languages of Asia. | Discourse Particles in Asian Languages GBP 260.00 1
