Inquisition in the Fourteenth Century: The Manuals of Bernard Gui and Nicholas Eymerich (Heresy and Inquisition in the Middle Ages, 7) Derek Hill; Boydell & Brewer | York Medieval Press, Boydell & Brewer, Woodbridge, Suffolk, UK, 2019

An investigation of two manuals of inquisition reveals much about the practice in action. The Inquisition played a central role in European history. It moulded societies by enforcing religious and intellectual unity; it helped develop the judicial and police techniques which are the basis of those used today; and it helped lay the foundations for the persecution of witches. An understanding of the Inquisition is therefore essential to the late medieval and early modern periods. This book looks at how the philosophy and practice of Inquisition developed in the fourteenth century. It saw the proliferation of heresies defined by the Church (notably the Spiritual Franciscans and Beguines) and the classifcation of many more magical practices as heresy.The consequentialwidening of the Inquisition's role in turn led to it being seen as an essential part of the Church and the guardian of all the Church's doctrinal boundaries; the inclusion of magic in particular also changed the Inquisition's attitude towards suspects, and the use of torture became systematised and regularised. These changes are charted here through close attention to the inquisitorial manuals of Bernard Gui and Nicholas Eymerich, using other sourceswhere available. Gui's and Eymerich's personalities were important factors. Gui was a successful insider, Eymerich a maverick, but Eymerich's work had the greater long-term influence. Through them we can see the Inquisition in action. DEREK HILL gained his PhD from the University of London.

A Power to Translate the World: New Essays on Emerson and International Culture (Re-Mapping the Transnational: A Dartmouth Series in American Studies) David LaRocca; Ricardo Miguel-Alfonso; Richard Deming Dartmouth College Press, Re-mapping the transnational : a Dartmouth series in American Studies, Hanover, New Hampshire, 2015

This thought-provoking collection gathers a roster of seasoned Emerson scholars to address anew the way non-American writers and texts influenced Emerson, while also discussing the manner in which Emerson’s writings influenced a diverse array of non-American authors. This volume includes new, original, and engaging research on crucial topics that have for the most part been absent from recent critical literature. While the motivations for this project will be familiar to scholars of literary studies and the history of philosophy, its topics, themes, and texts are distinctly novel. A Power to Translate the World provides a touchstone for a new generation of scholars trying to orient themselves to Emerson’s ongoing relevance to global literature and philosophy.

Three Frames of Modern Politics : Self, Others, and Institutions Daniel J. McCool Springer International Publishing : Imprint : Palgrave Macmillan, Springer Nature, Cham, Switzerland, 2019

This book examines the centrality of personality in political discourse since the Enlightenment. It considers the theory known as the “politics of authenticity,” its counter-discourses, and the ways in which it has degraded or enriched our collective political life. Using three models of politics to understand our current political predicaments—the politics of authenticity, politics of theatricality, and institutional politics—this volume argues that we need to envision a politics based on the best parts of each model: one that incorporates the ability for the oppressed to speak outside the institutional mechanisms of government. With the continuing erosion of public faith in political institutions, we have instead been left with the most troubling aspects of both authentic and theatrical politics. By exploring recent events and trends in American politics, this book ultimately makes a normative case that we need to balance demands for authenticity in our political actors with the equally necessary political values of deliberative institutions, processes, and decorum. ** Review “At a time when our democracy seems paralyzed with feelings of disillusionment and helplessness, Dr. McCool draws upon an impressively wide range of political thinkers to help us understand the complex tension between authenticity and theatricality in politics. His analysis reminds one of the skill of an expert physician diagnosing a patient’s illness and prescribing the cure for our ailing body politic: the importance of institutional politics and the need to strike a new balance between institutionalism and authenticity. This is a book that should be read by every person concerned about the future of democracy in America.” (David Smailes, Associate Professor, Political Science, Framingham State University, USA) “McCool's timely interrogation of political personality and authenticity gives his readers a fresh viewpoint on a critical component of democracy that can be either its greatest asset or its premature undoing. In a moment when political personality has come to dominate and threaten American democracy, his argument reveals a way forward.” (Joanna Tice Jen, Political Science Faculty, Las Positas College, USA) From the Back Cover This book examines the centrality of personality in political discourse since the Enlightenment.

Postmodern Perspectives on Contemporary Counseling Issues : Approaches Across Diverse Settings Mark B Scholl; James T Hansen IRL Press at Oxford University Press, Oxford University Press USA, New York, NY, 2018

Postmodernism is one of the most revolutionary and transformative ideological movements to emerge in the history of counseling and psychotherapy. However, descriptions of postmodernism are often abstract and philosophical, thereby making it difficult for practitioners to discern concrete ways that the ideology might enrich their ability to help clients. In Postmodern Perspectives on Contemporary Counseling Issues , contributions from expert scholars and practitioners clearly detail the implications of postmodern ideology for counseling practice. Contemporary issues such as trauma, addiction, social justice advocacy, couples counseling, and education are conceptualized within a postmodern context, and creative treatment options are illustrated with numerous case examples. Although the broad, conceptual details of postmodernism are reviewed, the primary focus of this text is on innovative ways to help clients with solution-focused, narrative, and other postmodern approaches. The rich descriptions of the implementation of postmodern approaches and techniques make it an invaluable training tool for supervisors and counselor educators. The book is also ideal for counselors, psychotherapists, and other helping professionals who would like to bolster and enliven their practice with cutting-edge methods, tools, and techniques derived from postmodern ideology. ** Social Science Psychology Counseling Psychotherapy Social Work Cover 1 Half title 2 Postmodern Perspectives on Contemporary Counseling Issues 4 Copyright 5 Dedication 6 Contents 8 Contributors 10 1 Introduction to Postmodern Perspectives on Contemporary Counseling Issues 18 Section I: Solution-Focused Therapy 40 2 Solution-Focused Counseling With Adolescent Survivors of Sexual Abuse 45 3 Solution-Focused Approaches to the Treatment of Substance Addiction 79 Section II: Narrative Therapy 106 4 Sacred Privilege: Using Narrative Reconstruction as a Postmodern Approach With Grieving Children and Adolescents 110 5 Restorying the Survivor Narrative With Sexually Abused Adolescents 138 Section III: Other Postmodern Therapeutic Models 162 6 Acceptance, Empowerment, and Meaning: A Collaborative Therapy Approach for College-Age Clients Struggling With Eating Disorder Symptoms 166 7 The Practice of Possibilities: Using Dialectical Humanism to Help Clients With Sexual Concerns 186 8 Counselor–Advocate–Scholar Model: A Postmodern Approach to Social Justice Counseling 202 Section IV: Integrative Postmodern Therapeutic Models 224 9 Career Support Workshop Series: A Postmodern Counseling Intervention Designed for the Ex-Offender Population 230 10 Integrating Emerging Understandings of Neuropsychology and Affect for Narrative Therapy With Couples 250 11 Obscuring Masculine Truths: A Postmodern, Clinical Framework for Counseling Men 278 Section V: Counselor Education From a Postmodern Perspective 300 12 Counselor Education From a Postmodern Perspective: Empowering Students 304 13 Conclusion 327 Author Index 340 Subject Index 350

Everybody Hurts: Transitions, Endings, and Resurrections in Fan Cultures (Fandom & Culture) Rebecca Williams (Editor) University Of Iowa Press, Fandom & culture, Iowa City, 2018

Have you ever been a fan of a show that was canceled abruptly or that killed off a beloved character unexpectedly? Or perhaps it was rebooted after a long absence and now you’re worried it won’t be as good as the original? Anyone who has ever followed entertainment closely knows firsthand that such transitions can be jarring. Indeed, for truly loyal fans, the loss can feel very real—even throwing their own identity into question. Examining how fans respond to and cope with transitions, endings, or resurrections in everything from band breakups (R.E.M.) to show cancellations ( Hannibal ) to closing down popular amusement park rides, this collection brings together an eclectic mix of scholars to analyze the various ways fans respond to change. Essays explore practices such as fan discussion and creating alternative fan fictions, as well as cases where fans abandon their objects of interest completely and move on to new ones. Shedding light on how fans react, both individually and as a community, the contributors also trace the commonalities and differences present in fandoms across a range of media, and they pay close attention to the ways fandom operates across paratexts and transmedia forms including films, comics, and television. This fascinating approach promises to make an important contribution to the fields of fan, media, and cultural studies, and should appeal widely to students, scholars, and anyone else with a genuine interest in understanding why these transitions can have such a deep impact on fans’ lives.

British Prose Poetry : The Poems Without Lines Jane Monson Springer International Publishing : Imprint : Palgrave Macmillan, Springer Nature, Cham, Switzerland, 2018

This book is the first collection of essays on the British prose poem. With essays by leading academics, critics and practitioners, the book traces the British prose poem’s unsettled history and reception in the UK as well as its recent popularity. The essays cover the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries exploring why this form is particularly suited to the modern age and yet can still be problematic for publishers, booksellers and scholars. Refreshing perspectives are given on the Romantics, Modernists and Post-Modernists, among them Woolf, Beckett and Eliot as well as more recent poets like Seamus Heaney, Geoffrey Hill, Claudia Rankine, Jeremy Over and Vahni Capildeo. British Prose Poetry moves from a contextual overview of the genre’s early volatile and fluctuating status, through to crucial examples of prose poetry written by established Modernist, surrealist and contemporary writers. Key questions around boundaries are discussed more generally in terms of race, class and gender. The British prose poem’s international heritage, influences and influence are explored throughout as an intrinsic part of its current renaissance. ** Modern English; Irish; Scottish; Welsh Literary Criticism Language Arts & Disciplines Poetry European General

The History and Theory of Environmental Scenography (2nd Edition) Arnold Aronson, Joslin McKinney, Palmer, Scott, Stephen A. Di Benedetto Bloomsbury Publishing Plc; Methuen Drama, Performance + design, Second edition. Revised edition, London, 2018

A classic work of theatre history and criticism when first published, Arnold Aronson's formative study surveyed the phenomenon known as environmental theatre. Now updated in this richly illustrated second edition to reflect developments and practice since the 1980s, it offers readers a comprehensive study of the theatre practice which has evolved to become the dominant mode of much contemporary innovative performance. For most audiences, particularly in the Western tradition, theatre means going to a building in which seats face a stage on which actors perform a play. But there has always been a vital alternative that came to be known as environmental theatre. Whether in folk performances, street theatre, avant-garde performance, utopian architecture, Happenings, mass spectacles, or contemporary immersive theatre, the relationship of the spectator to the performance has been one in which the audience is surrounded or immersed in a shared space, in which the multiple events may be happening simultaneously, and in which the experience of theatrical space is visceral and often kinetic. This book examines the history of this phenomenon and looks at a range of contemporary practice. New chapters examine how the 'transformed spaces' of earlier work have become the interactive and immersive productions that characterize the work of companies such as Punchdrunk, dreamthinkspeak, Teatro da Vertigem, En Garde Arts, and The Industry, among others. Updated to take account of the burgeoning scholarship on the subject, The History and Theory of Environmental Scenography remains the authoritative account that illuminates present day theatre practice and its antecedents. ** General Theater Stagecraft & Scenography Performing Arts History & Criticism Cover 1 Contents 8 List of Figures 9 Acknowledgments 12 Introduction to the Revised Edition 14 1 The Scenography of Environmental Performance 20 2 The Environmental Tradition 34 3 Reactions Against the Proscenium 48 4 Surrounding Space Theatres 70 5 Environmental Production in Russia 94 6 Okhlopkov and Tonecki: Environmental Staging in the 1930s 110 7 Environments and Happenings 126 8 Found Environments 142 9 Transformed Spaces 164 10 Sites: Specific and Otherwise 186 11 Conclusion: Immersive Theatre 212 Appendix I 230 Appendix II 232 Notes 236 Bibliography 242 About the Author 258 Index 259

Language of the Snakes: Prakrit, Sanskrit, and the Language Order of Premodern India (South Asia Across the Disciplines) Andrew Ollett University of California Press., University of California Press, Oakland, California, 2017

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more.Language of the Snakes traces the history of the Prakrit language as a literary phenomenon, starting from its cultivation in courts of the Deccan in the first centuries of the common era. Although little studied today, Prakrit was an important vector of the kavya movement and once joined Sanskrit at the apex of classical Indian literary culture. The opposition between Prakrit and Sanskrit was at the center of an enduring “language order” in India, a set of ways of thinking about, naming, classifying, representing, and ultimately using languages. As a language of classical literature that nevertheless retained its associations with more demotic language practices, Prakrit both embodies major cultural tensions—between high and low, transregional and regional, cosmopolitan and vernacular—and provides a unique perspective onto the history of literature and culture in South Asia.

Autonomy and Mental Disorder (International Perspectives in Philosophy & Psychiatry) edited by Lubomira Radoilska OUP Oxford, Oxford University Press USA, Oxford, 2012

Autonomy is a fundamental though contested concept. For instance, most of us place great value on the opportunity to make our own decisions and to be able to lead a life of our own choosing. Yet there is stark disagreement on what is involved in being able to decide autonomously, as well as how important this is compared with other commitments. For example, the success of every group project requires that group members make decisions about the project collectively rather than each on their own. This disagreement notwithstanding, mental disorder is routinely assumed to put a strain on autonomy. However, it is unclear whether this is effectively the case and, if so, whether this is due to the nature of mental disorder or of the social stigma that is often attached to it. Autonomy and Mental Disorder is the first exploration of the nature and value of autonomy with reference to mental disorder. By reflecting on instances of mental disorder where autonomy is apparently compromised, it offers a systematic discussion of the underlying presuppositions of the present autonomy debates. In so doing, it helps address different kinds of emerging scepticism questioning either the appeal of autonomy as a concept or its relevance to specific areas of normative ethics, including psychiatric ethics. Written by leading figures in philosophy and psychiatry, Autonomy and Mental Disorder will appeal to a wide range of readers in these and related disciplines. Lubomira Radoilska is Affiliated Lecturer in the Faculty of Philosophy at Cambridge University and Research Associate of the Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics at Oxford University. She is the author of Aristotle and the Moral Philosophy of Today (2007).

Pleasing Everyone : Mass Entertainment in Renaissance London and Golden-Age Hollywood Jeffrey Knapp Oxford University Press, Incorporated, Oxford University Press USA, Oxford, 2017

Shakespeare's plays were immensely popular in their own day -- so why do we refuse to think of them as mass entertainment? In Pleasing Everyone , author Jeffrey Knapp opens our eyes to the uncanny resemblance between Renaissance drama and the incontrovertibly mass medium of Golden-Age Hollywood cinema. Through fascinating explorations of such famous plays as Hamlet, The Roaring Girl, and The Alchemist, and such celebrated films as Citizen Kane, The Jazz Singer, and City Lights, Knapp challenges some of our most basic assumptions about the relationship between art and mass audiences. Above all, Knapp encourages us to resist the prejudice that mass entertainment necessarily simplifies and cheapens whatever it touches. As Knapp shows, it was instead the ceaseless pressure to please everyone that helped generate the astonishing richness and complexity of Renaissance drama as well as of Hollywood film. **

Pursuing Intersectionality, Unsettling Dominant Imaginaries (Contemporary Sociological Perspectives) May, Vivian M. Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, Contemporary sociological perspectives series, New York, 2015

Pursuing Intersectionality, Unsettling Dominant Imaginaries offers a sustained, interdisciplinary exploration of intersectional ideas, histories, and practices that no other text does. Deftly synthesizing much of the existing literatures on intersectionality, one of the most significant theoretical and political precepts of our time, May invites us to confront a disconcerting problem: though intersectionality is widely known, acclaimed, and applied, it is often construed in ways that depoliticize, undercut, or even violate its most basic premises. May cogently demonstrates how intersectionality has been repeatedly resisted, misunderstood, and misapplied: provocatively, she shows the degree to which intersectionality is often undone or undermined by supporters and critics alike. A clarion call to engage intersectionality�s radical ideas, histories, and justice orientations more meaningfully, Pursuing Intersectionality answers the basic questions surrounding intersectionality, attends to its historical roots in Black feminist theory and politics, and offers insights and strategies from across the disciplines for bracketing dominant logics and for orienting toward intersectional dispositions and practices.

Deep rhetoric : philosophy, reason, violence, justice, wisdom Crosswhite, James. The University of Chicago Press, Chicago, cop. 2013

“Rhetoric is the counterpart of logic,” claimed Aristotle. “Rhetoric is the first part of logic rightly understood,” Martin Heidegger concurred. “Rhetoric is the universal form of human communication,” opined Hans-Georg Gadamer. But in Deep Rhetoric , James Crosswhite offers a groundbreaking new conception of rhetoric, one that builds a definitive case for an understanding of the discipline as a philosophical enterprise beyond basic argumentation and is fully conversant with the advances of the New Rhetoric of Chaïm Perelman and Lucie Olbrechts-Tyteca. Chapter by chapter, Deep Rhetoric develops an understanding of rhetoric not only in its philosophical dimension but also as a means of guiding and conducting conflicts, achieving justice, and understanding the human condition. Along the way, Crosswhite restores the traditional dignity and importance of the discipline and illuminates the twentieth-century resurgence of rhetoric among philosophers, as well as the role that rhetoric can play in future discussions of ontology, epistemology, and ethics. At a time when the fields of philosophy and rhetoric have diverged, Crosswhite returns them to their common moorings and shows us an invigorating new way forward. ** General Social Rhetoric Literary Criticism Philosophy Language Arts & Disciplines Contents 8 Acknowledgments 12 Introduction 16 1.

Popular Modernism and Its Legacies reconfigures modernist studies to investigate how modernist concepts, figures, and aesthetics continue to play essential--though often undetected--roles across an array of contemporary works, genres, and mediums. Featuring both established and emerging scholars, each of the book's three sections offers a distinct perspective on popular modernism. The first section considers popular modernism in periods historically associated with the movement, discovering hidden connections between traditional forms of modernist literature and popular culture. The second section traces modernist genealogies from the past to the contemporary era, ultimately revealing that immensely popular contemporary works, artists, and genres continue to engage and thereby renew modernist aesthetics and values. The final section moves into the 21st century, discovering how popular works invoke modernist techniques, texts, and artists to explore social and existential quandaries in the contemporary world. Concluding with an afterword from noted scholar Faye Hammill, Popular Modernism and Its Legacies reshapes the study of modernism and provides new perspectives on important works at the center of our cultural imagination. ** Review Among the more profound shifts in the general fields of literary, theoretical and cultural studies in the past two decades has been the rethinking of Modernism beyond its narrowest period restrictions, as a between-the-wars phenomenon, say, and into its multiplicity, into Modernisms. Popular Modernism and its Legacy: from Pop Culture to Video Games is a major contribution to that ongoing discourse as it re-examines and re-evaluates what is too often considered an elitist, formalist or technical literature in terms of its broader ramifications, as "Popular Modernism." This collection of essays is a major contribution to reshaping that discourse and will be welcomed and embraced not only by students, scholars and teachers of Modernism but by those of Popular Culture as well, as it closes the artificial divide separating high and low cultures, where modernist novels coexist with contemporary comics and where Charlie Chaplin meets Walter Benjamin. * S. E. Gontarski, Robert O. Lawton Distinguished Professor of English, Florida State University, USA * Popular Modernism and Its Legacies maps with verve and insight crucial sites where modernism and mass culture merged indistinguishably, and demonstrates that the resulting hybrids still have much to teach us about how to understand our recent past and how to inhabit our conflicted present. Ranging over a broad variety of texts and media-from TV series and comic books to popular music, Hollywood films and video games-the essays in this exciting collection combine fine-grained textual analysis, historical awareness, and theoretical sophistication. They cast new light on well-known texts and figures (Chaplin, Josephine Baker), reveal the presence of classic modernist concerns in contemporary media, and chart unheeded formations, such as the experimental radio drama, the modernist operetta, or 'Surf Noir.' Above all, they manage to keep modernism surprising, alive, and unpredictable. * Juan Antonio Suarez, Professor of English, University of Murcia, Spain * About the Author Scott Ortolano is Professor of English at Florida SouthWestern State College, USA. He is co-editor of Perspectives on the Short Story and recently co-edited a special issue of the South Atlantic Review focused on sustaining English programs in the 21st century.

Cherokee Medicine, Colonial Germs: An Indigenous Nation’s Fight against Smallpox, 1518–1824 (Volume 11) (New Directions in Native American Studies Series) Paul Kelton University of Oklahoma Press, University of Oklahoma Press, Norman, Oklahoma, 2015

How smallpox, or Variola , caused widespread devastation during the European colonization of the Americas is a well-known story. But as historian Paul Kelton informs us, that’s precisely what it is: a convenient story . In Cherokee Medicine, Colonial Germs Kelton challenges the “virgin soil thesis,” or the widely held belief that Natives’ lack of immunities and their inept healers were responsible for their downfall. Eschewing the metaphors and hyperbole routinely associated with the impact of smallpox, he firmly shifts the focus to the root cause of indigenous suffering and depopulation—colonialism writ large; not disease. Kelton’s account begins with the long, false dawn between 1518 and the mid-seventeenth century, when sporadic encounters with Europeans did little to bring Cherokees into the wider circulation of guns, goods, and germs that had begun to transform Native worlds. By the 1690s English-inspired slave raids had triggered a massive smallpox epidemic that struck the Cherokees for the first time. Through the eighteenth century, Cherokees repeatedly responded to real and threatened epidemics—and they did so effectively by drawing on their own medicine. Yet they also faced terribly destructive physical violence from the British during the Anglo-Cherokee War (1759–1761) and from American militias during the Revolutionary War. Having suffered much more from the scourge of war than from smallpox, the Cherokee population rebounded during the nineteenth century and, without abandoning Native medical practices and beliefs, Cherokees took part in the nascent global effort to eradicate Variola by embracing vaccination. A far more complex and nuanced history of Variola among American Indians emerges from these pages, one that privileges the lived experiences of the Cherokees over the story of their supposedly ill-equipped immune systems and counterproductive responses. Cherokee Medicine, Colonial Germs shows us how Europeans and their American descendants have obscured the past with the stories they left behind, and how these stories have perpetuated a simplistic understanding of colonialism. **

Literature and the Creative Economy Sarah Brouillette, 1977- Stanford University Press, Stanford University Press, Palo Alto, 2014

This book contends that mainstream considerations of the economic and social force of culture, including theories of the creative class and of cognitive and immaterial labor, are indebted to historic conceptions of the art of literary authorship. It shows how contemporary literature has been involved in and has responded to creative-economy phenomena, including the presentation of artists as models of contentedly flexible and self-managed work, the treatment of training in and exposure to art as a pathway to social inclusion, the use of culture and cultural institutions to increase property values, and support for cultural diversity as a means of growing cultural markets. Contemporary writers have tended to explore how their own critical capacities have become compatible with or even essential to a neoliberal economy that has embraced art's autonomous gestures as proof that authentic self-articulation and social engagement can and should occur within capitalism. Taking a sociological approach to literary criticism, Sarah Brouillette interprets major works of contemporary fiction by Monica Ali, Aravind Adiga, Daljit Nagra, and Ian McEwan alongside government policy, social science, and theoretical explorations of creative work and immaterial labor.
