Peiser M: British Women Novelists and
the Review Periodical

British Women Novelists and the Review Periodical

Why has Tunisia, widely considered an Arab Spring 'success story', seen such an explosion in violent Islamism among its women?

The Case of Tunisia

Female Jihadis

Es handelt sich um die erstmalige diplomatische Edition des wichtigsten Textzeugen und einer neugefundenen Handschrift. Zwar gibt es schon einige Ausgaben des Kitab-i Dede Korkut, diese bieten jedoch in der Regel einen emendierten und unkritischenText. Tatsächlich ist eine philologisch zuverlässige Ausgabe auf der Grundlage der vollständigsten Handschrift (Dresden) bis heute ein Desiderat. Die neu gefundene 13. Geschichte ist im deutschsprachigen Raum bislang nicht zugänglich. Dem türkischen Editionstext ist eine synoptische deutsche Übersetzung beigegeben. Die literaturgeschichtliche Bedeutung des türkischsprachigen Epos ergibt sich nicht zuletzt aus parallelen Handlungssequenzen mit dem "Nibelungenlied", der "Kudrun und der "Odyssee". Die Ausgabe dokumentiert zudem die zweihundertjährige Forschungsgeschichte im deutschsprachigen Raum und in den turksprachigen Ländern. Die Ausgabe wendet sich an Turkologen, Germanisten und Historiker sowie bilinguale Deutschtürken beziehungweise ein gebildetes Laienpublikum.

Sex, Family and Culture in the Middle East

"What is the nature of slavery as practiced and at times reintroduced over the past two centuries in the Middle East and North Africa? In spite of the rich regional diversity of the areas studied - from Morocco to the Indian Ocean to Iran - this anthology demonstrates clear commonalities across the super-region. These include the regulation of slavery by Islam and local traditions, the absence of a rigid racial hierarchy as in North American slavery, the management of the sexuality and reproductive capacity of female slaves, and views on identity and heritage among descendants of slaves. Authors also examine the economic and theological underpinnings of contemporary slavery and human trafficking. The book is among the first to focus on slavery across the Islamic world from the 19th century to the present - a period constituting the endgame of institutionalized slavery in the region but also the persistence of forms of de facto enslavement. Each chapter scrutinizes from a different vantage point - institutions, economics, the abolitionist movement, literature, folklore, and the moving image - creating a multi-dimensional picture of the phenomenon. The authors have mined government archives and statistics, memoirs, interviews, photographs, drawings, songs, cinema and television. Not only are Arabic, Persian and Turkish sources leveraged, but a variety of materials in minor and endangered languages, such as Soqotri, Balochi and Sorani Kurdish, in addition to European languages"--

Futilities of Fact and Fruits of Fiction

Yuri Tynianov's The Death of Vazir-Mukhtar

Routledge Studies in Theology, Imagination and the Arts

The creative act, claims Nicolas Berdyaev, is a prefiguration of the end of the world. To what extent is fiction an exploration of the ultimate ends of humanity - of heaven, hell, death and judgement? And how do modern authors use the literary resources of eschatological imaginings in their storytelling? In this careful yet suggestive study, Greg Clarke explores the eschatological underpinnings of modern fiction. Drawing on the work of Ernst Bloch, Jurgen Moltmann, Jacques Derrida and Frank Kermode, Clarke outlines the way in which literature employs apocalyptic imagery, narrative structures and eschatological themes such as hope, glory, salvation and justice. Through a detailed study of the novels of pre-eminent Australian author Patrick White, a new eschatological approach to criticism emerges, where 'ultimate interests' become a reading lens and a key to understanding the creative impulse.

The Construction of Gender and National Ideologies in Japan through Johnny's Jimusho

Beyond the Male Idol Factory

Considering the most recent scholarship on early modern English women writers, memorialisation discourses, and textual evocations of female subjectivity, this study brings together a radical evocation of otherness that serves to challenge the dominant political, religious and social discourses of the day. Focusing especially on writers Mary Sidney Herbert, Elizabeth Cary, Mary Wroth and Aphra Behn, Marion Wynne-Davies offers a new way of understanding female identity in the English Renaissance.

Drawing upon modern theoretical precepts and presenting new research on tombs of English women writers from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, this study investigates the ways in which early modern women writers construct and are constructed by discourses of mortality.  Marion Wynne-Davies analyses how women wrote about mortality, how they 'staged' death, how they were written about when they died and the construction of their tombs as a final statement of public gender roles.  Each chapter focuses upon a key women writer from the period”Mary Sidney Herbert, Elizabeth Cary, Mary Wroth and Aphra Behn”to present a new way of understanding female identity in the English Renaissance.  In each example, Wynne-Davies presents her research on the woman writer's tomb in order to explore the parallels and contrasts between how the writers constructed themselves and how they were constructed after death. Engaging with the theoretical approaches and undertaking research on texts and monuments, this book explores memorialisation in order to demonstrate that death is essential to our understanding of the subjectivity of women writers in early modern England.    Considering the most recent scholarship on early modern English women writers, memorialisation discourses, and textual evocations of female subjectivity, this study brings together a radical evocation of otherness that serves to challenge the dominant political, religious and social discourses of the day.

Early Modern Women Writers and Memorialization

Bringing together diverse case studies and interdisciplinary perspectives, this open access collection serves as the first in-depth examination of queer and trans displacement in East Africa. The collection features original creative works by queer and trans diasporic writers and artists with first-hand experiences of displacement. The last decade has seen a sharp rise in state-sponsored homophobia and transphobia in East Africa. This includes discriminatory legislation, such as the widely condemned Anti-Homosexuality Act in Uganda, and government-initiated crackdowns, such as the 'anti-gay taskforce' launched in Tanzania in 2018. The politicisation of sexual and gender rights in the region is often presented as a moral crusade (i.e. a return to traditional/family values) and is enacted with the support of many religious and cultural leaders. It is within this context that an ever-increasing number of LGBTQI+ people are leaving their homes and seeking protection elsewhere. But East Africa cannot be reduced to a site from which LGBTQI+ displacement emanates. Several countries in the region act as either host countries or transit points, even as they produce LGBTQI+ refugees of their own. These complex social, political and legal dynamics make East Africa a productive site for theorising queer and trans displacement. The region offers insights into how, when and why LGBTQI+ Africans move, the social obstacles they face, and the different survival strategies they deploy. Despite this, research on East African queer and trans displacements remains sparse. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

What Men Say About Gender and Society

That's What He Said

A vast and fascinating chronicle of how gender and sexuality has been used to divide people around the world over the last fifty years &gt;"New movements are alive and moving in the world. Human beings in struggle are creating new feminisms, changing sexualities, and defying genocide. Hope stalks the heart. We have written this book for these new movements." --from the introduction The Sexual Politics of Capitalism offers a groundbreaking examination of how the global elite has used gender, sexuality, and violence to maintain control. Anthropologist Nancy Lindisfarne and writer Jonathan Neale trace the devastating effects of these tactics, showing how issues of gender and sexuality have been weaponized, especially since the 1980s, to make inequality appear inevitable, keeping the powerful in power and the marginalized fighting for survival. Spanning the globe, Lindisfarne and Neale explore the lived experiences of those on the front lines of this struggle. From mass incarceration in the United States to the resilience of queer communities in China, from Black women's battles for AIDS medication in South Africa to the fight against toxic masculinity in world leaders like Putin, Modi, Trump, and Netanyahu, this book provides a sweeping yet deeply personal account of resistance. The authors draw connections between diverse movements--union women in Nicaragua, farmers' widows in India, and bar workers in Vietnam--showing how global forces of capitalism exploit gender and sexuality to maintain power. At the same time, The Sexual Politics of Capitalism shines a light on the ongoing revolts against sexual harassment, rape, and reproductive injustice, as well as the fight for trans rights in the United States. With meticulous research and a passionate call for change, The Sexual Politics of Capitalism is more than a history--it is a manifesto for liberation. The authors invite readers to feel the grief and rage sparked by decades of oppression but also the solidarity and hope inspired by the global movements rising up in response. This radical work challenges us to confront the intimate and structural forces shaping our world and to join the fight for a more just and equitable future.
