A writing professor asks her students to share a childhood memory. They are stranded: all they can recall are family videos, photos resurfaced by an algorithm--moments already framed before they became memories at all.For the last one hundred years, technology has shaped not only how we communicate but how we experience time itself. But today the amassing of big data, the speed of problem solving, and the ubiquity of smartphones and AI threaten to upend our relationship to space and time. The past returns to us only in curated feeds and automatic reminders: an unceasing, untethered stream of content. Might we, in retaking control of our narrative threads, regain agency over our hours, our days, and the stories of our lives?Claire Messud's urgent manifesto argues that we must recapture our futures from the digital forces that consume us, and reclaim what makes us most human.

Reclaiming the Stories of Our Lives

Time, Now

Passages - Transitions - Intersections

This volume explores the complexities and variations of the nation and examines its transformative potential within the broad field of literary studies through various literary works, including fiction, autobiography, poetry, and theater. The authors address phenomena such as global capitalist exploitation, and its conjunction with other forms of violence, including colonialism, racism, sexism, xenophobia, and white supremacy. They engage with literary texts and film that reflect on, and disseminate, both hegemonic and, importantly, counterhegemonic discourses across the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. Each chapter engages with productions that speak from minoritarian and/or racially oppressed perspectives, including works representing Black American transnationalism, perspectives of refugees of color, immigrant and Palestinian voices, Romani positionalities, and Caribbean diasporic perspectives. Focusing on these cultural texts, our authors examine the effects of, as well as resistance to, a variety of vectors of oppression. These include U.S.-American anti-Black racism and anti-migrantism, in connection with the exploitation of the working class; European anti-Roma violence; 20th-century Zionism; the violence of European border regimes; and forced migration and the segregation of refugees into camps.

Exploring the Boundaries of Nationhood and its Alternatives

Narrated Belonging

The highly anticipated biography of one of the world’s most treasured literary voices, showcasing a life as triumphant and inspiring as the stories she crafted. To know the name Judy Blume is to know and love literature. Her influential novels turned classics—including Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret; Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing; Deenie; and Summer Sisters—touched the lives of tens of millions of readers. For more than fifty-five years her work has done something revolutionary: it rewired the world’s expectations of what literature for young people can be—frank, candid, earthy, and unafraid to show the messier sides of humanity. But little is known about the real woman behind the iconic persona, and the unlikely journey of her literary ascension, until now. In Judy Blume, journalist, historian, and longtime Blume aficionado Mark Oppenheimer pens a beautiful, multidimensional portrait of the acclaimed author through extensive interviews with Blume herself, invaluable access to her papers and correspondence, and thoughtful analysis of Blume’s beloved novels, including early, unpublished works that shed light on the pathbreaking writer she would become. Oppenheimer goes deep, exploring Blume’s middle-class 1950s upbringing, complicated childhood, varied relationships and marriages, unabashed sexual experiences, bouts of heartache and loss, and enduring legacy as a champion of free speech and contemporary literature. Oppenheimer peels back the curtain to reveal the woman behind the literary empire in all her complex, multifaceted glory—a true gift for anyone who grew up reading and loving these extraordinary books.

The inspiration for the Netflix original series starring Mia McKenna-Bruce, Helena Bonham Carter, and Martin Freeman!A practical joke goes chillingly, murderously wrong in Queen of Mystery Agatha Christie’s classic detective story, Seven Dials.Gerry Wade had proved himself to be a champion sleeper, so the other houseguests decided to play a practical joke on him. Eight alarm clocks were set to go off, one after the other, starting at 6:30 a.m. But when morning arrived, one clock was missing and the prank then backfired, with tragic consequences.For Jimmy Thesiger in particular, the words "Seven Dials" were to take on a new and chilling significance. . . .

Witness Testimony

Edition Forschung und Entwicklung in der Strafrechtspflege

Der Band widmet sich der Frage, welche Rolle Geschlecht im Strafverfahren und in der Strafrechtspflege spielt. Die Beiträge analysieren die Arbeit von&nbsp;Polizeien, Staatsanwaltschaften und Gerichten sowie die Bedeutung geschlechtlicher Zuschreibungen im Strafvollzug. Dabei geht der Blick über die binäre Ordnung von Mann und Frau hinaus und berücksichtigt geschlechtliche Vielfalt ebenso wie intersektionale Verschränkungen.

Geschlecht in der Strafrechtspflege

Das Nebenstrafrecht ist keineswegs Nebensache: Betäubungsmittelstrafrecht, Ausländerstrafrecht, Verkehrsstrafrecht, Waffenstrafrecht und Wehrstrafrecht haben in der Strafrechtspraxis eine wichtige Bedeutung. Seit einigen Jahren wird Nebenstrafrecht an Universitäten gelehrt, bisher fehlte es aber an Ausbildungsliteratur. Der Band füllt diese Lücke und stellt das Nebenstrafrecht systematisch anhand vieler Beispiele dar: im 1. Teil die übergreifenden Fragen wie etwa Irrtumsfragen, im 2. Teil die praktisch bedeutsamsten Gebiete des Nebenstrafrechts.

Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology

This book explores the path dependencies that have shaped the prison systems of the former communist countries of Europe following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Reflecting the varied ethno-religious populations of the region, the collection details how ethnic minority prisoners were managed under different communist regimes and how this changed after the fall of the Berlin Wall. In chapters written by authors from fifteen countries, it explores past and present aspects of penal governance, gang culture, Council of Europe leverage, geopolitics and prisoner experiences. The authors are drawn from across the disciplines of anthropology, criminology, geography, history, modern languages and literature, and sociology. The collection shines a light on prison systems that are often overlooked in discussions of European penalty. It addresses the question of whether ‘post-communist’ is an appropriate label to attach to these prison systems and, in line with the current imperative to decentre Russian and East European area studies, it brings together research from a diverse range of the former communist states of Europe. This book will be of interest to criminologists, historians, and social scientists and a general readership interested in Russia, and the countries of East Central Europe and the Balkans.

Beyond the Badge: Strategic Innovations and Global Approaches in Policing

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 Robinson, 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.

A Guide to Writing with Elegance, Opulence, and Indulgence

In Praise of Purple Prose

'El día en que lo iban a matar, Santiago Nasar se levantó a las 5.30 de la mañana para esperar el buque en que llegaba el obispo.' Acaso sea Crónica de una muerte anunciada la obra más 'realista' de Gabriel García Márquez, pues se basa en un hecho histórico acontecido en la tierra natal del escritor. Cuando empieza la novela, ya se sabe que los hermanos Vicario van a matar a Santiago Nasar -de hecho, ya le han matado- para vengar el honor ultrajado de su hermana µngela, pero el relato termina precisamente en el momento en que Santiago Nasar muere. El tiempo cíclico, tan utilizado por García Márquez en sus obras, reaparece aquí minuciosamente descompuesto en cada uno de sus momentos, reconstruido prolija y exactamente por el narrador, que va dando cuenta de lo que sucedió mucho tiempo atrás, que avanza y retrocede en su relato y hasta llega mucho tiempo después para contar el destino de los supervivientes. La acción es, a un tiempo, colectiva y personal, clara y ambigua, y atrapa al lector desde un principio, aunque este conozca el desenlace de la trama. La dialéctica entre mito y realidad se ve potenciada aquí, una vez más, por una prosa tan cargada de fascinación que la eleva hasta las fronteras de la leyenda. Julio Cortázar dijo... 'Un genio.'
