McAvan E: Divinity, Hospitality and the
Posthuman in 21st-Century Literature

Divinity, Hospitality and the Posthuman in 21st-Century Literature

The Material Sacred

New Directions in Critical Criminology

Drawing on a range of approaches including conflict, critical race, and social control theories, this book provides a comprehensive theoretical review of the need for a critical historical intersectional theory of policing and race.

The reaction to Ferguson, the murder of Trayvon Martin and other police-related deaths around the US has brought race and the criminal justice system to the forefront of current scholarly discussion. However, unlike the past, racial realism has been brought to the front line via expressions from those affected by police mistreatment as well as official reports from the Department of Justice and social justice advocacy groups. Although a public conversation has begun, lacking within this discourse is a cogent forthright criminological assessment that includes expressions and namely experiences from those affected by police-violenceDrawing on a range of approaches including conflict, critical race, and social control theories, this book provides a comprehensive theoretical review of the need for a critical historical intersectional theory of policing and race. Disrupting the obsolescence of racial realism in policing literature, this book also discusses the social and democratic implications of using critical historical intersectional analyzes in criminological research involving race.

Policing and Race

Routledge Studies in Entrepreneurship and Small Business

The only book to focus on British entrepreneurship and small businesses under Labour from an academically rigorous and analytical perspective, this book covers:<ul> <li>the nature of the Labour Government's policies for small firms: how far has Labour maintained the Conservative emphasis and how far has it provided a distinctive interpretation of its own? In what way does Labour's approach connect to its general economic and industrial policy?</li> <li>the way in which Labour has formed and implemented its small firms policy: to what extent has Labour maintained previous practices and what changes have been introduced into policy-making, stressing alternative themes?</li> <li>the impact on the small business constituency of Labour policy and practice since 1997: how distinctive does Labour's strategy and procedure appear to small business? </li> </ul>This book is a must read for all economics, and business and management students interested in, or studying entrepreneurship.

Routledge Studies in Religion

This edited collection explores whether the cultural and organisational realities of Catholicism, along with its underpinning theology, led to abuse by clergy being made possible. Written by a panel with expertise in the myriad implications of abuse, this book addresses issues such as the spiritual dynamics of abuse; the resultant psychological issues of abuse and restorative justice. It also discusses the place of children of clergy and the sexual misconduct of priests with adults. This is vital reading for any academic of Theology, Religious Studies, Psychology and Law who wants to better understand the dynamics at work in these instances of abuse.

The Roman Catholic Church, along with other religious and non-religious institutions, has been embroiled in a series of sexual abuse scandals during the last decades. In response, a variety of important measures have been introduced to eradicate the possibility of further abuse, with particular attention given to issues around safeguarding. However, research has tended to focus on the individual pathology of each perpetrator. In contrast, this collection brings a systematic and inter-disciplinary methodology to bear on the distinctive cultural and organisational realities of Catholicism and its underpinning theology. This is in order to test the claim that they are significant contributing factors to a culture that enabled abusive behaviour to become a possibility. Written by a panel with expertise in the theological, ecclesiological, psychological and legal implications of abuse, this book addresses issues such as the spiritual dynamics of sexual abuse; restorative justice; and psychological issues related to abuse by clergy. It also broadens the discussion to include the place of children of clergy and sexual misconduct between priests and women in the context of spiritual direction.Seeing to constructively build a broader understanding of transgressive and abusive behaviour by clergy in the Church, this is vital reading for any academic of Theology, Religious Studies, Psychology and Law who wants to better understand the dynamics at work in these instances of abuse.

War, Culture and Society

Through an in-depth analysis of wartime essays and literary works, Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War considers the similarities and differences in the way that writers from both North and South Korea perceived and experienced the conflict. 

In this book, Jerôme de Wit examines the social impact of major themes in the output of these writers, such as the notion of collaboration, the portrayal of the enemy and heroes, and the role of women during war, to further our understanding of the wartime identities that were constructed by the two Koreas. The result is a nuanced and enlightening study which provides a base for a full exploration of the role culture in the formation of North and South Korean states.

Until now, most studies have tended to focus on the Korean War's role in big power relations or on Korea's role in Cold War history. Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War demonstrates that the struggle was simultaneously an international 'total' war as well as a civil one. It is an important study for anyone interested in the literature and culture of the Korean War.

Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies

In his chapter entitled 'Anselm on Ethics' in the Cambridge Companion to Anselm, Jeffrey Brower comments that, 'Anselm's ethical views have received very little attention from contemporary scholars, and as a result there is no satisfactory systematic treatment of them available in the contemporary literature.' This book seeks to fill that lacuna. More specifically the purpose of this volume is to examine the extent to which Anselm of Canterbury possessed a consistent normative philosophy which coherently addressed the question of how the individual ought to act. By so doing it extends the contemporary commentary of Anselm's ethical philosophy beyond the abstract and meta-ethical and analyses the ways in which Anselm's letter collection can be used to show pragmatic approaches to ethical questions. In examining this field, this book contains two interdependent parts, one illustrative of the other. The first deals with Anselm's anthropology, theory of will, and ethical philosophy. The second examines the impact of his theology and ethical philosophy upon his societal and political beliefs. The contrast between formal theological writing and the more personal letter collections is intentional as a way of evaluating the manner in which Anselm's thought is consistent across a range of academic exercises and real world scenarios. In addition, this provides case studies of how a normative approach opens up new lines of research and furthers the field of Anselm studies, addressing several past issues of contention.

Iron Age Lives provides the first integrated academic treatment of the Iron Age of Britain and Ireland. After considering the social changes that marked the end of the Later Bronze Age, it examines the environmental, economic, demographic and cultural factors that underpinned the emergence of the fragmented and regionalised societies of the Early Iron Age. Subsequent chapters trace the development of increasingly complex and distinctive social forms across Britain and Ireland. Central themes that cut across the book's broadly chronological structure include: the creation and expression of individual and collective identities; the social role of art and religion; changing gender roles; technological innovation, including iron-working and rotary technology; the complex and varied treatments of the dead; gift-giving, trade and exchange; and the role of conflict and violence.

Subsequent chapters trace the development of increasingly complex and distinctive social forms across Britain and Ireland including the hillfort societies of southern England and the Welsh Marches; village communities of the Upper Thames Valley; the dense settlement landscapes, cemeteries and chariot burials of East Yorkshire; the hillfort communities of Northumbria and south-east Scotland; the broch-building societies of Atlantic Scotland; and the ritual landscapes of Iron Age IrelandCentral themes that cut across the book’s broadly chronological structure include: the creation and expression of individual and collective identities; the social role of art and religion; changing gender roles; technological innovation, including iron-working and rotary technology; the complex and varied treatments of the dead; gift-giving, trade and exchange; and the role of conflict and violence. The text is supported throughout by box features expanding on individual sites, objects, themes or debates and the book focuses, where appropriate, on fresh and exciting new finds and discoveries from the last few years including, for example, the well-preserved bog bodies from eastern Ireland, recently excavated chariot burials from Newbridge and Ferry Fryston, Iron Age roads from East Anglia, the Midlands and Ireland, musical instruments from High Pasture Cave in Skye and Cnip in Lewis, the shrine containing gold torcs from Stirlingshire, and the impact of AMS dating on the chronologies of Iron Age art and burial.

There is a substantial and growing literature on both theories and methods in the study of religion. This new four-volume collection will showcase the very best cutting-edge research and canonical literature.

Methods and Theories in the Study of Religion

Arguably the greatest novel of the twentieth century, James Joyce's Ulysses remains as much of a shocking and redemptive testament to the human condition as it was when it was first conceived in 1914. Following the events of a single day in Dublin and the experiences of Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses' ceaseless verbal and formal inventiveness and its astonishing wide-ranging allusions continue to have a profound influence on contemporary culture. A new, annotated students' edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text, now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork, this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

For Joyce, literature is 'the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'. Written between 1914 and 1921, Ulysses has survived bowdlerisation, legal action and bitter controversy. An undisputed modernist classic, its ceaseless verbal inventiveness and astonishing wide-ranging allusions confirm its standing as an imperishable monument to the human condition. A new edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text - now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork - this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

Annotated Students' Edition

Ulysses

An overachiever must decide if risking her heart by working with her former crush turned enemy is worth the reward in this snappy rom-com, perfect for fans of Tweet Cute and Excuse Me While I Ugly Cry. High school senior Autumn Reeves has been waitlisted at her dream school. Determined to move to the top of the list, she must find a way to stand out. When a promposal she planned for a friend has half the senior class asking for her help, a brilliant business idea that will look great on her application is born: Promposal Queen. Autumn has no clue how to start a business, so she joins the Young Black Entrepreneurs group and finds herself face-to-face with Mekhi Winston, the boy whose unexpected freshman-year kiss-a kiss that meant everything to her and nothing to him-cost Autumn her best friend. He's the only person with the experience to help her, but how can she possibly trust him? With her dreams on the line, Autumn's willing to risk it. After all, Mekhi could be a good business partner without being a guy she would ever let near her heart again. But when working with Mekhi jeopardizes her only chance at rekindling a friendship with her ex-best-friend, and secrets long buried threaten to ruin Promposal Queen, another broken heart may be the least of her worries--her entire future is on the line.

Dubliners, Joyce's first major work and written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time. His stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary, often defeated lives with unflinching realism. From 'The Sisters', a vivid portrait of childhood faith and guilt, to 'Araby', a timeless evocation of the inexplicable yearnings of adolescence, to 'The Dead', in which Gabriel Conroy is gradually brought to a painful epiphany regarding the nature of his existence, Joyce draws a realistic and memorable cast of Dubliners together in an powerful exploration of overarching themes. Writing of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption and personal failure, he creates a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience.
