Casting a Movement The Welcome Table Initiative

Casting a Movement The Welcome Table Initiative

Casting a Movement brings together US-based actors directors educators playwrights and scholars to explore the cultural politics of casting. Drawing on the notion of a welcome table—a space where artists of all backgrounds can come together as equals to create theatre—the book’s contributors discuss casting practices as they relate to varying communities and contexts including Middle Eastern American theatre Disability culture multilingual performance Native American theatre color- and culturally-conscious casting and casting as a means to dismantle stereotypes. Syler and Banks suggest that casting is a way to invite more people to the table so that the full breadth of US identities can be reflected onstage and that casting is inherently a political act; because an actor’s embodied presence both communicates a dramatic narrative and evokes cultural assumptions associated with appearance skin color gender sexuality and ability casting choices are never neutral. By bringing together a variety of artistic perspectives to discuss common goals and particular concerns related to casting this volume features the insights and experiences of a broad range of practitioners and experts across the field. As a resource-driven text suitable for both practitioners and academics Casting a Movement seeks to frame and mobilize a social movement focused on casting access and representation.

Food Feasting and Table Manners in the Late Middle Ages Volume I: The Iberian Peninsula in the European Context

Food Feasting and Table Manners in the Late Middle Ages Volume I: The Iberian Peninsula in the European Context

This book offers a study of what and how people ate in the Iberian Peninsula between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. It has long been recognized that Mediterranean cultures attach great importance to communal meals and food cooked with great refinement. However whilst medieval feasting in England France and Italy has been thoroughly studied Spain and Portugal have both been somewhat neglected in this area of study. This volume analyses how medieval men of the Iberian Peninsula questioned themselves about different aspects deemed important in social feasting. It investigates the acquisition of table manners and rhetorical skills the interaction between medicine and eating and the presence of food in literature and religion. The book also shows how this shared society and culture as well as their attitude towards food connected them to a Western European tradition. The book will appeal to scholars and students alike interested in food and feasting from the perspectives of literature history language art religion and medicine and to those interested in a social cultural and literary overview of life in the Iberian Peninsula during the late Middle Ages. | Food Feasting and Table Manners in the Late Middle Ages Volume I: The Iberian Peninsula in the European Context

The Vacuum Interrupter Theory Design and Application

The Vacuum Interrupter Theory Design and Application

Title: The Vacuum Interrupter: Theory Design and ApplicationShelving guide: Electrical Engineering Dr. Paul Slade draws from his nearly six decades of active experience to develop this second edition of The Vacuum Interrupter: Theory Design and Application. This book begins by discussing the design requirements for high voltage vacuum interrupters and then the contact requirements to interrupt the vacuum arc. It then continues by describing the various applications in which the vacuum interrupter is generally utilized. Part 1 of this book begins with a detailed review of the vacuum breakdown process. It continues by covering the steps necessary for the design and the manufacture of a successful vacuum interrupter. The vacuum arc is then discussed including how it is affected as a function of current. An overview of the development and use of practical contact materials along with their advantages and disadvantages follows. Contact designs that are introduced to control the high current vacuum arc are also analyzed. Part 2 on application begins with a discussion of the arc interruption process for low current and high current vacuum arcs. It examines the voltage escalation phenomenon that can occur when interrupting inductive circuits. The occurrence of contact welding for closed contacts subjected to the passage of high currents and for contacts when closing on high currents is explored. The general requirements for the successful manufacture and testing of vacuum circuit breakers is then presented. The general application of vacuum interrupters to switch load currents especially when applied to capacitor circuits is also given. The interruption of high short circuit currents is presented along with the expected performance of the two major contact designs. Owing to the ever-increasing need for environmentally friendly circuit protection devices the development and application of the vacuum interrupter will only increase in the future. At present the vacuum circuit breaker is the technology of choice for distribution circuits (5kV to 40. 5kV). It is increasingly being applied to transmission circuits (72. 5kV to 242kV). In the future its application for protecting high voltage DC networks is assured. Audience This is a practical source book for engineers and scientists interested in studying the development and application of the vacuum interrupter Research scientists in industry and universities Graduate students beginning their study of vacuum interrupter phenomena Design engineers applying vacuum interrupters in vacuum switches vacuum contactors vacuum circuit breakers and vacuum contactors It provides a unique and comprehensive review of all aspects of vacuum interrupter technology for those new to the subject and for those who wish to obtain a deeper understanding of its science and application Scientists and engineers who are beginning their research into vacuum breakdown and aspects of the vacuum arc will find the extensive bibliography and phenomenological descriptions to be a useful introduction | The Vacuum Interrupter Theory Design and Application
