Global Challenges in the Environmental Humanities

Adopting a multidisciplinary approach to climate adjudication, this open access book addresses how adjudicators decide cases by considering the influence of psychology, philosophy, legal education, film, literature, political economy, political ecology, judicial appointments, history, and climate science on their decision-making and ultimately on the (inconsistent) outcomes in climate cases. Drawing upon the humanities, science of climate change and/or social sciences to identify extra-legal factors that may drive the decision-making processes and outcomes of climate cases, this book uses case studies from different jurisdictions across the globe, addressing climate cases decided or pending in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin and North America, and Oceania. In all, the volume will: - Engage with extra-legal influence to how show judges and arbitrators make their decisions in climate cases, shedding light on the inconsistent responses that climate cases have generated so far - Challenge assumptions of legal universalism, by recognising differences in how the law works in various - Inform actors involved in climate litigation (lawyers, judges, arbitrators, disputants), policymakers, and the public about how cases are decided. 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 Universities of Cambridge, Newcastle and Oxford.

The Soul of Wealth

Offering teachers and students alike a foundational understanding of the versatile medium of comics, this book guides readers through the history and principles of reading and making comics, using the creative writing discipline as its lens. Sitting at the intersection between comics studies and comics creation, Comics and Creativity explores what makes comics work, how they are read and asks readers to reflect on the narratological comparisons between storytelling in comics and storytelling in the mediums such as prose or film. Covering the fundamentals of time, form, character and voice in graphic narratives, as well as approaching the key genres of autobiography, speculative fiction, adaptation and non-fiction, Comics and Creativity uses ideas from both a theoretical/ critical and practical/ creative approaches. With each chapter supported by practical exercises and lesson suggestions, it features step-by-step close readings of a broad range of contemporary works from comics artists including Kym Tabulo, James Kochalka, Tommi Parrish, Chris Ware, Leonie Brialey, Meg O'Shea, Lee Lai, Adrian Tomine and Taiyo Matsumoto, Mandy Ord, Marjane Satrapi, Dominique Goblet, Safdar Ahmed, Sam Wallman and Eleri Harris. Designed to assist with classroom teaching and individual learning, this book demonstrates how comics can unlock and transform approaches to storytelling and creative teaching. Privileging narrative rhythm, timing, page layout and panel design over experience and skill with drawing, Comics and Creativity extends the writer and creative's repertoire of ways to express themselves multi-modally.

'Phenomenal...the best book ever written on climate change...for a world searching for solutions, search no more' Cass R. SunsteinA bold new idea from the Nobel Prize-winning economists: how radical cooperation between rich and poor countries can build a future in which we can all thriveWhy does a fisherman in Dakar work even longer hours when temperatures rise? What makes extreme heat in Seattle fifteen times more deadly than in Houston? Why can't Indigenous communities in Brazil get the help they desperately need?The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter and shorter, with much of it due to the actions of the world's wealthiest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, those from poorer countries are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind, but it's not too late to find a way out.Just Economics proposes a radical new approach, arguing that progress is possible if the wealthiest countries compensate the poorest for the continuing harm and, in exchange, poorer countries reduce their emissions. Drawing on meticulous original research and years of fieldwork around the world, witnessing the impact of climate change on those most affected, Banerjee, Duflo and Greenstone quantify the damage inflicted on the poor and calculate how we could fund such an ambitious plan. They show how their grand bargain adds up and why it will work. That we can protect the poor while protecting our future. It's just economics.

Write Yourself Happy

Some people travel for cuisine, scenery or to broaden their horizons, but Kevin McAleer has journeyed the world for reasons less voluntary – and the results have been much less pleasant. With self-deprecating wit and a lively eye for the grotesque, in&nbsp;Tales of an Inadvertent Traveler&nbsp;he recounts getting stuck behind the Iron Curtain in communist Romania; battling the souvenir-industrial complex on a trip up the Nile Valley; being targeted as a drug runner by the feds during a train trip across America; getting von-Trapped in a&nbsp;Sound of Music-obsessed language course in Salzburg; and voyaging across the stormy North Atlantic on a cargo ship, the sole passenger, only to open his cabin door one night and find the captain’s lifeless body lying at his feet . . . These and other ill-fated junkets are chronicled in McAleer’s eccentric memoir, which turns mishap into comic adventure while also proving that the best travel stories aren’t always told by people who love to travel.&nbsp;

Tales of an Inadvertent Traveler

Bloomsbury Spectres, Hauntings and Horrors

Exploring current debates in creative writing about the borders between fiction and creative nonfiction, this collection of essays draws on concepts of the uncanny and hauntology to challenge, subvert and transgress the boundary between forms. Hauntology, as originally defined by Derrida, challenges the certainties of ontology, in a similar way to debates about truth in creative nonfiction; by bringing together authors that undermine the fiction/nonfiction binary, Haunted Writing considers the ways in which real events and experiences haunt writers as they craft their work. Offering insight into how the past - both personal and historical - is experienced and understood in the present, this book includes writing from a diverse group of established and emerging authors who situate their work on genre boundaries and discuss their own creative practice to show how their writing 'haunts' real events. With essays covering a range of ideas from subjectivity, intersectionality and challenging dominant versions of history, to braiding personal and researched stories, playfulness, experimentation and creating stories from archival documents, this beautifully written collection intervenes in contemporary discussions in creative writing and culture surrounding ownership, appropriation and ethics. Bringing a fresh voice and new perspectives to ever-present questions within creative writing, Haunted Writing uncovers how the past is a spectre that disrupts contemporary writing.

Skills for Scholars

A playful and irreverent argument for—and practical guide to—writing in a rich and extraordinary style When it comes to literary style, the commonplace wisdom of composition classrooms, newsrooms, and editorial offices has long been that less is more. Students are taught that the best prose is that which eschews ornamentation and rhetorical flourish. But what if sometimes more is more? In Praise of Purple Prose playfully and cheekily contests a century worth of convention that rejects the baroque and byzantine as “purple prose,” making the case that fun and joy in language can be as important as concision and comprehension. Part style guide and part manifesto, the book rewrites the rules on writing. Ed Simon encourages writers to embrace the extraordinary, to call upon the classical rhetorical devices, and to relish in the richness of description and the erudition of allusion. He demonstrates that serpentine syntax, eccentric diction, and idiosyncratic punctuation, when used judiciously, can express the complexity of experience, bring out the pleasures of language, and help readers develop a unique voice in a world where AI threatens to make everyone sound alike. To illustrate its arguments, the book features examples of extraordinary prose from dozens of writers, including John Donne, Virginia Woolf, Joan Didion, Salman Rushdie, Marilynne Robison, and Zadie Smith. Playful and provocative, In Praise of Purple Prose will leave readers with a new appreciation for fancy prose and inspire writers to draw on all of the liveliest and most powerful resources of English in their work.

In Praise of Purple Prose

Carcosa

Ein Raumschiff strandet auf einem fernen Planeten, buchstäblich am Ende des Universums. Die kleine Gruppe von Frauen und Männern findet sich in einer lebensfeindlichen Einöde wieder und muss versuchen, auch nur die ersten Tage gemeinsam zu überstehen. Als die Männer stattdessen hochfliegende Pläne schmieden, wie diese Welt zu 'kolonisieren' sei, kommt es zur Katastrophe ... 
Mit ihrem erstmals 1976 erschienenen Roman "Wir, die wir sehr bald ..." verfasste Joanna Russ die definitive Antithese zu den Werken ihrer männlichen Kollegen: Hier tragen keine strahlenden Helden die Zivilisation in die Weiten des Weltraums hinaus. Hier stellt sich eine Frau den existenziellen Fragen des Daseins. Bis zur letzten Konsequenz. // Der abschließende Band unserer Russ-Werkausgabe enthält außerdem zwei längere Erzählungen, eine Folge repräsentativer Buchkritiken und einen Essay aus der dritten Schaffensphase der Autorin.
