Data Driven Applications for Industry 4.0 and Beyond

Arguing that American colonists who declared their independence in 1776 remained tied to England by both habit and inclination, Clark traces the new Americans' struggle to come to terms with their loss of identity as British, and particularly English, citizens. Clark's study shows that any attempt to examine what it meant to be American in the New

Transatlantic Writing

The American Idea of England, 1776-1840

Taking a multidisciplinary approach to the complex cultural exchanges that took place between Britain and America from 1750 to 1900, this collection examines material and visual cultures alongside literary studies. Intended for researchers in literature and in visual and material cultures, this collection challenges single-subject boundaries by red

The Materials of Exchange between Britain and North East America, 1750-1900

This collection of essays by scholars in transatlantic British and American literatures interrogates the diverse meanings the ocean assumed for writers, readers, and thinkers on both sides of the Atlantic during this period of global exploration and colonial consolidation. The introduction offers three critical lenses through which to read nineteenth-century Anglophone maritime literature: "wet globalization," which returns the ocean to our discourses of the global; "salt aesthetics," which considers how the sea influences artistic culture and aesthetic theory; and "blue ecocriticism," which poses an oceanic challenge to the narrowly terrestrial nature of "green" ecological criticism.

The Sea and Nineteenth-Century Anglophone Literary Culture

Opening a dialogue between ecocriticism and transatlantic studies, this collection shows how the two fields inform, complement, and complicate each other. The editors situate the volume in its critical contexts by providing a detailed literary and historical overview of nineteenth-century transatlantic socio-environmental issues involving such topics as the contemporary fur and timber trades, colonialism and agricultural "improvement", literary discourses on conservation, and the consequences of industrial capitalism, urbanization, and urban environmental activism.

Nature and Culture in the Nineteenth-Century Anglophone Atlantic World

Transatlantic Literary Ecologies

Until the Chace Act in 1891, no international copyright law existed between Britain and the United States, which meant publishers were free to edit text, excerpt whole passages, add new illustrations, and substantially redesign a book's appearance. In spite of this ongoing process of transatlantic transformation of texts, the metaphor of the book as a physical embodiment of its author persisted. Jessica DeSpain's study of this period of textual instability examines how the physical book acted as a major form of cultural exchange between Britain and the United States that called attention to volatile texts and the identities they manifested. Focusing on four influential works"Charles Dickens's American Notes for General Circulation, Susan Warner's The Wide, Wide World, Fanny Kemble's Journal of a Residence on a Georgian Plantation, and Walt Whitman's Democratic Vistas"DeSpain shows that for authors, readers, and publishers struggling with the unpredictability of the textual body, the physical book and the physical body became interchangeable metaphors of flux. At the same time, discourses of destabilized bodies inflected issues essential to transatlantic culture, including class, gender, religion, and slavery, while the practice of reprinting challenged the concepts of individual identity, personal property, and national identity.

Nineteenth-Century Transatlantic Reprinting and the Embodied Book

In nineteenth-century Britain, the effects of democracy in America were seen to spread from Congress all the way down to the personal habits of its citizens. Bringing together political theorists, historians, and literary scholars, this volume explores the idea of American democracy in nineteenth-century Britain. The essays span the period from Independence to the First World War and trace an intellectual history of Anglo-American relations during that period. Leading scholars trace the hopes and fears inspired by the American model of democracy in the works of commentators, including Thomas Paine, Mary Wollstonecraft, Alexis de Tocqueville, Charles Dickens, John Stuart Mill, Richard Cobden, Charles Dilke, Matthew Arnold, Henry James and W. T. Stead. By examining the context of debates about American democracy and notions of 'culture', citizenship, and race, the collection sheds fresh light on well-documented moments of British political history, such as the Reform Acts, the Abolition of Slavery Act, and the Anti-Corn Law agitation. The volume also explores the ways in which British Liberalism was shaped by the American example and draws attention to the importance of print culture in furthering radical political dialogue between the two nations. As the comprehensive introduction makes clear, this collection makes an important contribution to transatlantic studies and our growing sense of a nineteenth-century modernity shaped by an Atlantic exchange. It is an essential reference point for all interested in the history of the idea of democracy, its political evolution, and its perceived cultural consequences.

Arguing that American colonists who declared their independence in 1776 remained tied to England by both habit and inclination, Jennifer Clark traces the new Americans' struggle to come to terms with their loss of identity as British, and particularly English, citizens. Americans' attempts to negotiate the new Anglo-American relationship are revealed in letters, newspaper accounts, travel reports, essays, song lyrics, short stories and novels, which Clark suggests show them repositioning themselves in a transatlantic context newly defined by political revolution. Chapters examine political writing as a means for Americans to explore the Anglo-American relationship, the appropriation of John Bull by American writers, the challenge the War of 1812 posed to the reconstructed Anglo-American relationship, the Paper War between American and English authors that began around the time of the War of 1812, accounts by Americans lured to England as a place of poetry, story and history, and the work of American writers who dissected the Anglo-American relationship in their fiction. Carefully contextualised historically, Clark's persuasive study shows that any attempt to examine what it meant to be American in the New Nation, and immediately beyond, must be situated within the context of the Anglo-American relationship.

Transatlantic studies, especially during the enlightenment period, is of increasing critical interest amongst scholars. But was there an Atlantic Enlightenment? This interdisciplinary collection harnesses the work of some of the most prominent figures in the fields of literature; intellectual, cultural, and social history; geography; and political science to examine the emergence of the Atlantic as one of the key conceptual paradigms of eighteenth century studies. In this spirit, the contributors offer new insights into the conditions that generated a major transatlantic genre of writing; addressing questions of race, political economy, and the transmission of Enlightenment ideas in literary, political, historical, and religious contexts. Whether examining John Witherspoon's evolution from Calvinist theologian to Revolutionary theorist, or Adam Smith's reception in the antebellum United States, the essays remind us that the transatlantic traffic in ideas moved from west to east, from east to west, and in patterns that both complicate and enrich what we thought we knew about the vectors of transmission in this pivotal period.

Routledge New Directions in PR & Communication Research

The book argues that the Palestinian response to the challenge of promoting their cause is to extend their repertoire of public relations communication tactics. It explores the discursive strategies employed by Palestinian communication strategists, across the range of political allegiances, via public relations techniques to advance the cause of statehood. These tactics have emerged not only as the result of planned strategy but also through improvisation and informal responses to outside pressures.

Genders & Sexualities in Minds & Cultures

In this landmark collection of original essays, originally published in 1989, outstanding feminist critics in Britain, France, and the United States present new perspectives on feminism and psychoanalysis, opening out deadlocked debates. The discussion ranges widely, with contributions from feminists identified with different, often opposed views on psychoanalytic criticism. The contributors reassess the history of Lacanian psychoanalysis and feminism and explore the significance of its institutional context and write against the received views on 'French feminism' and essentialism. This Classic Edition of the book features a new introduction.

Routledge Critical Thinkers

Students in literary studies frequently come across Plato, Aristotle and Longinus, either directly through their names and concepts or indirectly, in the work of writers and theorists responding to them. Eaglestone argues that while great thinkers of antiquity may seem far away, their ideas still shape how we think about literature and culture even today. Contemporary examples illustrate the meaning of the original texts and highlight their continuous relevance.

Fault Lines

In this masterful history, leading historians and best-selling authors Kevin M. Kruse and Julian E. Zelizer uncover the origins of the current moment in America, answering the question: When-and how-did the country become so polarised? It starts in 1974 with the Watergate crisis, the OPEC oil embargo, desegregation, busing riots in Boston and the wind-down of the Vietnam War. Ever-widening historical fault lines over economic inequality, race, gender and sex norms firing up a polarised political landscape followed. Fault Lines is also the story of the profound transformations of the media and the political system fuelling the fire. This edition has been brought up to date with significant updates throughout, a new chapter on the Trump administration; and a new epilogue on the Biden administration and the 2024 general election.

A History of the United States Since 1974

A pioneering, eye-opening investigation into the world of online gambling, its explosive growth and the transformational impact it is having on sport, tech, individuals and society. A little flutter. All part of the game. Get closer to the action. A familiar voice, inviting you to join the real fans and get involved. It has never been easier to place a bet. Wall to wall adverts on repeat surround every sporting event. The smartphone in your pocket all you need to unlock a dizzying array of bets on almost any aspect of any sport. Since its origins as a provincial cottage industry almost twenty-five years ago, UK online gambling has become a globe-straddling behemoth worth more than £10 billion a year. It can sometimes feel as if the point of sport is to bet on it. But it didn't have to be this way. In Imitation Games, academic and BBC New Generation Thinker Darragh McGee travels the world to tell the incredible story of the individuals and companies who brought this brave new world of betting into being (and got very rich doing so). And he traces the devastation and destruction that gambling leaves behind it. The inadequate safeguards and the broken lives that mark the fun stopping. And proffers a series of solutions for how we can create a different future.

Routledge Studies in Evangelicalism

From the transatlantic revivals of the 1730s and 1740s through to the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars, evangelicals thought a great deal about church history and the relationship of the past with recent events. In this ground-breaking study, Darren Schmidt considers the emergence and development of evangelical Protestantism in the North Atlantic context during the long eighteenth century, through the lens of history-writing by evangelicals themselves. Considering the writings of prominent early evangelicals such as Jonathan Edwards, John Newton and John Wesley, along with lesser known historians with evangelical connections, the volume asks why these individuals, amidst busy lives of pastoral ministry, study, and guidance to a fledgling religious movement, would devote their attention to the pages of the past. In so doing, Schmidt draws out new and intriguing connections between evangelicalism and the wider enlightenment world.
