Ten Great Writers Translate the Twentieth Century

'Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain are fantastic chaps. The Dudley Moore and Peter Cook of music journalism' - Liam Gallagher 'Something special: a book of wit and verve about why Oasis matter' - The Telegraph This Sunday Times top 10 bestseller is the definitive book about the music of Oasis, published in time for the reunion tour. A deeply researched tribute to the creative talent and star power of the Gallaghers, A Sound So Very Loud is crammed with unknown detail and the kind of anarchic, brilliantly funny anecdotes that only Oasis could generate. Music journalists Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain first met Liam and Noel in 1994, when the brothers were playing tiny venues, and have since interviewed them dozens of times, tracking the astonishing success of Oasis as they became one of the biggest bands in the world. In this comprehensive telling of the Oasis story through their spectacular back catalogue. Kessler and MacBain focus on the enduring power of the music, exploring the tales behind the lyrics and revealing the background to the writing, recording and impact of all the songs, from megahits like 'Live Forever', 'Wonderwall' and 'Champagne Supernova' to the fan-favourite B-sides and deep cuts such as 'Acquiesce', 'The Masterplan' and 'Half the World Away'. With their unique perspective on all things Oasis, Kessler and MacBain bring this story to life in glorious colour. A Sound So Very Loud is the book every Oasis fan needs on their shelves, destined to be as timeless and as moreish as the music itself. 'Essential reading. Hamish and Ted have had front row tickets to the Oasis story from the very beginning. There's no one who knows more about the band, the music and its impact' - Mat Whitecross, director of Oasis: Supersonic

New Directions in Life Narrative

An exploration of how autobiographical stories of illness, precarity, loss, and trauma are communicated and negotiated into public and digital spaces through webcomics.

Digital and In/Visible Lives in Autobiographical Webcomics

This book offers the first sustained analysis of the interactions between British writers, propaganda and culture from the Second World War to the Cold War. It traces the involvement of a series of major cultural figures in domestic and international propaganda campaigns and throws new light on the global deployment of British propaganda and cultural diplomacy in colonial and post-colonial theatres such as Cyprus, India and Sierra Leone. Chapters re-evaluate the propaganda work of prominent writers including Arthur Koestler and Dylan Thomas in the light of new archival research, study how organisations including the BBC, British Council and Ministry of Information engaged with new media forms, analyse cultural representations of propaganda service and investigate how British literature and culture was deployed and projected as a form of soft power across the globe. Featuring contributions from a variety of disciplines, including literary studies, visual culture, book history and radio history, this book brings together a constellation of established and emerging scholars to show the crucial role played in shaping and mediating the techniques and content of British information campaigns of the mid-twentieth century.

Routledge Studies in Empirical Translation and Multilingual Communication

Fukuno illuminates the often-hidden journeys of individual translators and the moral, emotional and ideological complexities of their practice. It will help empower translators' moral autonomy in translation practices.Recognising and understanding translators' ethically and morally interpretive work cannot eliminate all uncertainties in inter- and cross-cultural communications, nor can it make the black box of translators' work completely transparent. However, to construct a meaningful discussion on how human translators, machine translation and people everywhere can cooperate to create a more just society, it is essential to acknowledge the diverse values, identities and practices as they are held, imagined and experienced by professional, human translators.This book will be valuable to all students and researchers of translation and intercultural communication.

Georgetown Studies in Intelligence History

The untold story of how America's brightest academic minds revolutionized intelligence analysis at the CIAIn the early days of the Cold War, the United States faced a crisis in intelligence analysis. A series of intelligence failures in 1949 and 1950, including the failure to warn about the North Korean invasion of South Korea, made it clear that gut instinct and traditional practices were no longer sufficient for intelligence analysis in the nuclear age. The new director of the Central Intelligence Agency, Walter Bedell Smith, had a mandate to reform it.Based on new archival research in declassified documents and the participants' personal papers, The Intelligence Intellectuals reveals the neglected history of how America's brightest academic minds were recruited by the CIA to revolutionize intelligence analysis during this critical period. Peter C. Grace describes how the scientifically sound analysis methods that they introduced significantly helped the United States gain an advantage in the Cold War, and these new analysts legitimized the role of the recently created CIA in the national security community. Grace demonstrates how these professors--such as William Langer from Harvard, Sherman Kent from Yale, and Max Millikan from MIT--developed systematic approaches to intelligence analysis that shaped the CIA's methodology for decades to come.Readers interested in the history of the Cold War and in intelligence, scholars of intelligence studies, Cold War historians, and intelligence practitioners seeking to understand their craft's foundations will all value this insightful history about the place of social science in national security.
