Temples of Luxury

Temples of Luxury

This two-volume collection of British primary sources examines institutions such as hotels inns arcades bazaars co-operatives shops and department stores in the long nineteenth century which were often coded as ‘luxurious’. This period was marked not only by an increase of individual consumerism but also by the institutionalisation of opulent often purpose-built spaces such as the much-admired new grand hotels supposedly an American invention and department stores modelled on the French grands magasins. These environments were tied to leisure (no longer a prerogative of the upper classes) and thus to modernity. In addition to addressing the luxurious side of these institutions including architectural innovation and interior decoration we also consider the other side of luxury examining the experience of staff and period debates over the morality of consumption. This edition seeks to explore a fascinating but hitherto often neglected side of the British nineteenth century by bringing together a collection of annotated primary texts and visual material documenting these ‘temples of luxury’ as they were seen by their contemporaries.

The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry

The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry

Comprised of contributions from leading international scholars The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry incorporates political cultural and theoretical paradigms that help place poetic projects in their socio-political contexts as well as illuminate connections across the continuum of the Arabic tradition. This volume grounds itself in the present moment and from it examines the transformations of the fifteen-century Arabic poetic tradition through readings re-readings translations reformulations and co-optations. Furthermore this collection aims to deconstruct the artificial modern/pre-modern divide and to present the Arabic poetic practice as live and urgent shaped by the experiences and challenges of the twenty-first century and at the same time in constant conversation with its long tradition. The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Poetry actively seeks to destabilize binaries such as that of East-West in contributions that shed light on the interactions of the Arabic tradition with other Middle Eastern traditions such as Persian Turkish and Hebrew and on South-South ideological and poetic networks of solidarity that have informed poetic currents across the modern Middle East. This volume will be ideal for scholars and students of Arabic Middle Eastern and comparative literature as well as non-specialists interested in poetry and in the present moment of the study of Arabic poetry.

The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Participatory Inquiry in Transnational Research Contexts

The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Participatory Inquiry in Transnational Research Contexts

The Routledge International Handbook of Critical Participatory Inquiry in Transnational Research Contexts illustrates how research guided by the emancipatory epistemology of critical participatory inquiry (CPI) can support social change in transnational contexts which are inherently laden with unequal power dynamics and colonial structures. It builds on prior volumes in participatory action research community-based participatory research and decolonizing methodologies. This edited volume offers cases from across the Global South and Global North and from diverse disciplines including human rights migration education health youth studies and development to demonstrate how CPI can fulfill its democratizing and decolonizing potential. Written primarily by new and emerging scholars practitioners and community leaders these cases go on to illustrate how a critical participatory approach to transnational research can enhance the strength of research processes and findings create more equitable and just experiences for those who participate as co-researchers and facilitate social change. Providing a valuable framework for transnational CPI and a wealth of examples it will be an invaluable read for undergraduate and graduate students of Development Studies Healthcare disciplines Education and qualitative research. It will also be of interest to researchers professionals community leaders and even funders and policymakers who want to work toward greater equity and social justice in transnational research contexts.
