Bloomsbury Neo-Latin Series: Early Modern Texts and Anthologies

On June 13, 1753 the Irene set sail from London to New York. One of her passengers was Christian Wedsted, a Moravian missionary headed to his post in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. While many travelers would chronicle their transatlantic journeys, Wedsted chose to recount his in 200 lines of Latin poetry, imitating the preferred form of the ancient Roman poet Ovid. This poem is one of about 45 Latin poems that Wedsted composed in Germany, England, and Pennsylvania, all of which are presented here together for the first time alongside translations into English. A critical introduction and commentary provide historical, literary, and religious context for Wedsted's poetry, across an oeuvre containing birthday poems, impassioned religious verses, and personal anecdotes about life in colonial Pennsylvania. At around 1200 lines, the poems make up one of the largest extant collections of 18th-century Latin poetry from the Americas. Moravian piety is central to Wedsted's identity, and he exchanges poems with important Moravian personalities, weaving together classical material and Christian material to create an original and unique project in colonial America. Many of the poems are experiments in genre that put ancient models and meters to work in new contexts. Half of the poems were written after his arrival in America, and as such they offer a rare window into life on the colonial frontier.

Routledge Introductions to American Literature

In this latest addition to the Routledge Studies in American Literature series, Frederick Luis Aldama, shows the rich, evolving tapestry that makes up Latino/a literature across time as well as geographical and institutional spaces, touching on fundamental backdrops like political issues surrounding migration/immigration to the US as well as Central American, South American, and Caribbean political, social and cultural influences that have each added considerable depth, contrast, and variation to this tapestry.

The topic of Latino/a Literature is not as easily identifiable as it may seem. The definition itself of Latino can change depending on who you are talking to—so, what do we mean in this case, and what will this book explore? In this latest addition to the Routledge Studies in American Literature series, Frederick Luis Aldama, shows the rich, evolving tapestry that makes up "Latino/a literature" across time as well as geographical and institutional spaces, touching on fundamental backdrops like political issues surrounding migration/immigration to the US as well as Central American, South American, and Caribbean political, social and cultural influences that have each added considerable depth, contrast, and variation to the tapestry. This impressive and increasingly influential body of literature that continues to transform the US in countless ways has been underrepresented in the academic community. With the majority minority of the country quickly becoming the majority in some states, Latino/a literature needs more to be given more attention which is exactly what Aldama brilliantly achieves with this new study that covers well know and lesser known works by Latino/a writes of the last few centuries and gives context to the times and environment in which they were written. Offering readers an exceptionally comprehensive review of this vital and under-explored subject, Aldama’s Introduction to Latino/a Literature promises to be an indispensable text.

Introduction to Latina/o Literature

Doctor Faustus

A new compass for global reading: looking at the world from the far southern latitudes A northern viewpoint is most often the default, while the south—the far southern latitudes occupied by Australia, New Zealand, Argentina and southern Africa, among others—seems far away and ignorable. In Southern Imagining, Elleke Boehmer offers an alternative perspective, using literary, scientific and cultural material to explore how we look at the world from the south. Reading, she argues, is a transformative means of reversing our usual planetary perspective and rearranging our perceptual geography. Boehmer examines writing from across southern continents and islands, considering how we imaginatively inhabit the farthest reaches of our planet. Writers ranging from the Portuguese epic poet Luís de Camöes to Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Charles Darwin, Katherine Mansfield, Jorge Luis Borges and ancient Indigenous scribes, Boehmer finds, capture the edgy and austere experiences of the far south. Boehmer argues that imaginative work stimulates and shapes our phenomenological understanding. Southerners often see themselves as if far away from where things count, as outsiders, internalising the wider global sense of their relative insignificance. Conversely, when northerners read or hear legends, narratives, songs and poems from the south, it is as if they are located in the south, at least for the duration of the reading or listening. Boehmer suggests that the south-tilted world map, re-centred through song and story, invites us to claim a more involved sense of belonging to our planet, both its north and its south. The writers of the south disrupt conventional ways of seeing and invite us to inhabit our globe differently.

Elizabeth Elstob's Writings on Anglo-Saxon (1709–1715?)

Frühe Neuzeit

Alle drei Bände der von Jörg Jochen Berns herausgegebenen Edition Von Strittigkeit der Bilder. Texte des deutschen Bildstreits im 16. Jahrhundert sind als preisreduziertes Set zu erwerben. Die Bände geben verlässlich Einblick in eine deutschsprachige, theologisch grundierte Mediendebatte. Singulär ist die umfassende Zusammenstellung zum einen wegen ihres Umfangs von neunundneunzig historischen Texten auf mehr als zweitausendeinhundert Seiten, zum andern wegen der regionalen Vielfalt und konfessionellen Vielstimmigkeit dieser Zeugnisse: von Amling, Bucer, Buchstab, Bullinger bis hin zu Quad, Schwenckfeld, Zwingli. Nicht nur werden viele der Dokumente hier erstmals seit vier Jahrhunderten wieder ediert, sondern auch zum ersten Mal zusammengestellt und so miteinander konfrontiert, dass es möglich wird, Gemeinsamkeiten und Differenzen zu erkennen, Leitbegriffe zu verfolgen und argumentative Muster freizulegen. Die Texte werden durch Anmerkungen und umfängliche Nachworte kommentiert und durch umfangreiche Register erschlossen. Als Handwerkszeug bildwissenschaftlichen Forschens, insbesondere auf kunsthistorischem, kirchengeschichtlichem, volkskundlichem, psychologiehistorischem, mediengeschichtlichen oder germanistisch-linguistischem Terrain, ist die Sammlung unverzichtbar.

Joseph and his Brothers

A provocative history of Disney's rise to cultural dominance, pulling skeletons from the corporate closet to decode the political messages hidden in all of your favorite childhood movies. 
 
In&nbsp;The Extended Universe,&nbsp;Vicky Osterweil takes us on a quest to discover how Disney's "imagineers" have made it impossible to reflect on the wonders of growing up without thinking of Disney's movies, amusement parks, and merchandising. Drawing on extensive interviews with filmmakers, screenwriters, union organizers, and Disney "adults" alike, Osterweil unearths reactionary political commitments and maleficent legal maneuvers so cartoonishly evil they would make one of Walt's own animated villains blush. 
 
Along the way, Osterweil braids together corporate skullduggery with a not entirely unsympathetic analysis of some of Disney's most famous movies. The result is an entertaining and convincing case that Disney's entire business model has been built upon a ruthless and fanatical insistence on intellectual property rights-from&nbsp;Steamboat Willie&nbsp;to&nbsp;Infinity Wars&nbsp;and beyond!

Object Lessons

Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.

Our ability to make a fist is what distinguishes humans from every other species, including primates. The fist played a crucial role in the birth of language and appears in nearly every form of nonverbal communication, particularly haptics and kinesiology. We use our fist to protest oppression, give pleasure, knock on doors, give daps, and (inaccurately) measure our hearts-yet we see them as a sign of someone on the edge. 

This book asks what happens when we lean over the edge of what a fist can do and symbolize. Fist uses historical moments and artifacts, primary interviews, and personal narratives to explore the fist's polysemous and divisive nature. Fist examines knuckle tattoos, the Black Power salute, Obama's fist bumps, the Fig, and fisting, the last sexual taboo. Fist uncovers what flexing our knuckles says, not just about us, but the world in which we live.

Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.
