A Research and Information Guide, Volume 2: Transnational Discourses of Global Popular Music Studies

A Research and Information Guide, Volume 1: Global Perspectives in Popular Music Studies

Introducing new insights into the history of ceramic design and consumption, Neil Ewins departs from the focus on manufacturers and producers and presents a third perspective that puts the multifaceted lives of the merchants, importers and dealers at the centre. Challenging the notion that intermediaries involved in the Anglo-American ceramic trade from the late 18th into the 19th century were simply motivated by maximizing profits and widespread market demands, Ewin's alternative approach demonstrates the value of taking their culture, identity and conscience into account. The geographic gap between the British manufacturer and the American consumer meant that those involved in mercantile activities assumed a highly significant role. Ewins analyses a range of sources including city directories, advertisements, newspapers and family trees to identify those involved in the ceramic trade, supplemented by archival material relating to the Wainwright and Ovington families. Illustrated with examples of ceramics and engravings, chapters explore how the intermediaries commissioned and marketed ceramics for different reasons, influenced by their political, social, religious and moral views. Ewins investigates how culture and a strong sense of identity, the abolition movement, kinship and family ties, religious beliefs and community, and the interracial experience all played a part in the manufacture, distribution and consumption of ceramics in the US market. This volume demonstrates how the role of intermediaries deserves a place in the history of the Anglo-American ceramic trade; beyond design and consumption being production-led or market-led, it reveals that it could also be conscience-led and suggests the picture is far more complex than once understood.

Intermediaries and the Anglo-American Ceramic Trade

Alternative Narratives in Ceramic History

This clear and accessible book addresses three key questions: What is narrative? How can we talk about narrative? How does audience participation relate to this? As media landscapes shift, new questions arise over what constitutes a 'narrative text', from graphic novels to twitter accounts, web series and computer games. Siobhan O'Flynn provides students, teachers and practitioners a new theoretical framework in which to discuss and analyse this continually evolving area. Supported by a website featuring interviews and teaching material, this book introduces the key thinkers and critical concepts in the fields, drawing connections and filling gaps, opening up a new way of thinking about digital narrative.

The Gig Economy in India explores the topic of gig work in India's digital political economy, and the relationship between key factors such as start-ups, state government, and platform providers.

Given the limited research on India as a case study, this volume fills a crucial gap in the literature.

Love Notes from Taylor & Travis

From Eras to Ever After

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

The Pornography Business

A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2025 IN THE INDEPENDENT, GQ, NEW STATESMAN, FINANCIAL TIMES AND BBC CULTURE 'Graydon Carter is a brilliant raconteur of his own life...it's a real yarn of a lost world' Marina Hyde, The Rest is Entertainment When the Going Was Good is Graydon Carter's lively recounting of how he made his mark as one of society's most talented editors and shapers of culture. Carter arrived in New York from Canada with little more than a suitcase, a failed literary magazine in his past and a keen sense of ambition. He landed a job at Time, went on to work at Life, co-founded Spy magazine and edited The New York Observer before catching the eye of Condé Nast chairman Si Newhouse, who tapped him to run Vanity Fair. With his inimitable voice and raconteur's quip, Carter brings readers inside the drawing rooms of the great and not-always-good of America, Britain and Europe. He assembled one of the best-ever stables of writers and photographers under one roof, and here he re-creates in real time the steps he took to ensure that Vanity Fair during his 25-year run cemented its place as the epicentre of art, culture, business and politics. Charming, candid and brimming with humour, When the Going Was Good perfectly captures the last golden age of print magazines from the inside out.

An FT Best Book of the Year'Saad Mohseni is one of the most remarkable figures in modern Afghanistan - brave, entrepreneurial, with a knack for imagining the impossible - he transformed the Afghan media landscape and brought serious news, and exceptional entertainment to millions in the most testing circumstances imaginable' Rory StewartThe deeply moving and surprising story of the attempt to build a truly independent media company in contemporary Afghanistan.
Saad Mohseni, chairman and CEO of Moby Group, Afghanistan's largest media company, charts a twenty-year effort to bring a free press to his country after years of Taliban rule, and how that effort persists even after the Taliban's return to power in 2021.In the heady early days of the American occupation, Mohseni returns to Kabul which he had last seen as a child before the Soviet invasion. Casting about for ways to be involved in the dawn of a new Afghanistan, Mohseni makes what seems like a quixotic decision to leave the comforts of a career in international banking to start a Kabul radio station with his three siblings. This unlikely venture quickly blossoms into a burgeoning television empire, bringing Mohseni and his family and employees into sometimes uncomfortable contact with everyone who has a stake in the country - from the government of Hamid Karzai to White House officials. Moreover, their radio and television networks soon become a necessary beacon for millions of Afghans, who rely on them not just for independent news but for joyful pleasures like soap operas and Afghan Star, a beloved national singing competition in a country whose previous rulers had banned (and would again ban) music.Mohseni's position at Moby affords him unique insights into this extraordinary yet troubled country, the youngest in the world outside of Sub-Saharan Africa, and his powerful account captures the spirit and resilience of the Afghan people - notably the hundreds of men and women still working in Moby's Kabul office today, who, once again under Taliban rule, create programs, report the news, and educate the public.Radio Free Afghanistan is a stunning, vibrant portrait of a nation in turmoil, poised between despair and hope.

Revealing the people behind the Rothschild name, The Rothschilds explores the lives and legacy of one of the best-known and most impactful families in modern history The Rothschild name has long been synonymous with wealth and privilege, but as Jews the family has also been dogged by prejudice and hatred. Antisemitism followed them from their earliest beginnings in the oppressive Jewish ghetto of Frankfurt, where Jews were not allowed out after nightfall, to the lofty summits of high finance, art, and culture. However, behind the myths, the glamor, and the conspiracy theories are a group of relatives whose individualism, personalities and occasional eccentricities have been obscured by their shared surname. In The Rothschilds, Harry Freedman delves into their lives on a historical tour, marked as much by dry British humor as by an unfailing attention to the influence of individual family members on world events. Freedman takes us from the genesis of the Rothschild international banking empire to the impact of individual Rothschilds in multiple fields over the past 250 years. Spanning war, politics and the industrial revolution, art, architecture and interior design, zoology, smuggling, counter-terrorism and the ongoing struggle against entrenched anti-Jewish bigotry, he reveals a truly new story of a very old family. The Rothschilds makes a great contribution not only to Jewish history but also our understanding of a dynasty that has shaped our world. &nbsp;

In Narrationen des 19. Jahrhunderts gab es zahlreiche textuelle Repräsentationen der Wunderkammer. Valerie Ahlfeld zeigt anhand von Adalbert Stifters 'Der Nachsommer', Theodor Fontanes 'Vor dem Sturm' und Wilhelm Raabes 'Das Odfeld', wie diese Denkfigur in einer Zeit transformiert wird, in der sich die Sammlungspraxis in Richtung spezialisierter Museen verlagerte. Dabei verknüpft sie literatur- und sammlungswissenschaftliche Perspektiven und verbindet textanalytische Detailarbeit mit kulturhistorischer Kontextualisierung - ein innovativer Beitrag zur Erforschung der Literarisierung vormusealen Sammelns.

Routledge Studies in the Fashion Industry

This book explores what happens when fashion discourse migrates from specialised media to mainstream newspapers. Analysis of 2,263 texts across five Dutch and international case studies (animal welfare, disability, repair practices, smart wearables, and metaverse fashion) demonstrates systematic reversal: instead of creating desire, it provokes aversion; instead of fostering inclusion, it reinforces marginalisation; instead of encouraging creativity, it stokes speculative investment appetites.Drawing on Barthes's semiology of fashion, Foucault's discourse theory, and Lotman's concept of the semiosphere, the book introduces critical discursive matrix analysis as a method for examining fashion at its periphery. The findings reveal that when fashion intersects with social issues in mainstream media, it becomes colonised by other discursive systems - medical, civic, technology, and financial - while fashion industry voices retreat, replaced by NGOs, activists, and technology companies pursuing non-fashion agendas. The volume provides insights into why sustainability efforts fail despite awareness, how media representation shapes consumer behaviour, and why fashion discourse cannot evolve within its commercial framework.Public Discourse and the Fashion Industry will engage a diverse audience, including fashion studies scholars, discourse analysts, media researchers, sustainability practitioners, policymakers, fashion industry strategists, and communication specialists.
