LGBTQ+ Lives Behind Net Curtains

How women in and around the Guinness family - including Adelaide, Lady Iveagh and Olive, Lady Ardilaun - helped to transform the life and fabric of Dublin and the social history of Ireland.In the 19th century Guinness not only became the world's largest brewery, it was also a pioneering force in providing good conditions for its workforce. This approach shaped social programmes in Dublin and further afield, transforming healthcare, social housing and urban improvement. But it was the women of the family who first promulgated that culture.Women such as the sisters Anne and Rebecca Lee Guinness, who championed support for women's health surprisingly early on. Women like Adelaide, Lady Iveagh and Olive, Lady Ardilaun, who wielded influence at the heart of Ireland's elite. And women who worked in fields such as fashion, medicine and the markets, all part of Guinness's wider Dublin ecosystem. From the bestselling historian Antonia Hart, and based on new archival research, Guinness Women tells a riveting new story of the impact made by remarkable women in and around the early generations of the great brewing family.Word count: 70,000 words.

This open access book offersa cultural history of lawsuits that traces the development of French performance rights from la Belle Époque, throughthe Roaring Twenties, and into thePost-War period. It does so by analysing the ways in which performers, composers, and playwrights took to French courtrooms, sought attention in mass media, and participated in political debates to claim their rights to create and control musical and theatrical performance. In 19th-century France, composers and playwrights organised in member-run societies that successfully used authors' rights legislation to curb the power of theatre managers. By the turn of the 20th century, these so-called collective management organisations had transformed French cultural industries by building out structures of royalty collection and improving litigation practices. From the café-concert culture in 19th-century Montmartre and the rise of modern celebrity culture, to mass media and radio entertainment, the book traces precedent-setting litigation that defined who creates and controls performance. The book challenges previous narratives that centre the individualisation of authors in the expansion of the international copyright regime while neglecting performers. Instead, it reveals the ways in which the personality and individuality of performers have played a constitutive role in discourses about genius, technology, and legal categories. Performance as Intellectual Property is for anyone interested in the emergence of modern European cultural industries and the relationships between intellectual property systems, creativity, and art. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com Open access was funded by the European Research Council.

Performance as Intellectual Property

For many centuries the woollen industry was among the most important of British industries. It was certainly the most widespread, because it was impossible to move any distance at all without seeing some evidence of the existence of this important industry. The textile manufacturer, whether he worked in the home or in a factory building, was an essential member of almost every community, for there was hardly a parish in the land that did not have its contingent of spinners and weavers, dyers and fullers. The widespread occurrence of placenames associated with woollen manufacturing bears witness to the importance of wool in the economic history of Britain.First published in 1972, The Wool Textile Industry in Great Britain examines the aspects in the development of the wool textile industry in Britain. Some of the papers included in this book were delivered to the Anthropology section of the British Association for the Advancement of Science at the Leeds meeting in 1968.Industrial archaeology, social and economic history, and the history of technology are combined in this study of British life.

'Like being wrapped up in a big gay blanket' - V. E. Schwab, author of Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil, on The House in the Cerulean SeaThe world is ending in thirty days. A wandering black hole is approaching Earth, and soon, everything will be gone. For husbands Don and Rodney, forty years of marriage suddenly feels like no time at all. One last road trip. One final chance to say goodbye. From the Sunday Times bestselling author of The House in the Cerulean Sea comes a story about what we owe the people we love when time runs out. Don and Rodney are in a race against the clock, driving from Maine to Washington State to settle unfinished business before the sky breaks. Is it enough to burn bright, even if nothing remains of the ashes? Along the way, they encounter a world choosing how to spend its final moments-from impromptu weddings and bright bonfires to those simply sharing a final meal. Under a kaleidoscope sky and a cracked moon, Don and Rodney must look back on a lifetime of highs and lows and ask the ultimate question: was our best good enough? A bittersweet, life-affirming masterpiece about love, legacy, and the beauty of a life well-lived.

A Historical and Sociological Perspective

A 'musical and moving' (Washington Post) meditation on the colour blue and its role in Black history and culture Throughout history, the concept of Blackness has been remarkably intertwined with another color: blue. In daily life, it is evoked in countless ways. Blue skies and blue water offer hope for a life beyond the current conditions. But blue is also the color of deep melancholy and heartache, echoing Louis Armstrong's question, "What did I do to be so Black and blue?" In Black in Blues, celebrated author Imani Perry uses the world's favorite color as a springboard for a riveting emotional, cultural, and spiritual journey-an examination of race and Blackness that transcends politics or ideology. Drawing deeply from her own life as well as from art and history, Perry traces both blue and Blackness from their earliest roots to their many embodiments of contemporary culture: The dyed indigo cloths of West Africa that were traded for human life in the 16th century. The mixture of awe and aversion in the old-fashioned characterization of dark-skinned people as "Blue Black". The fundamentally American art form of blues music, sitting at the crossroads of pain and pleasure. The blue flowers she plants in memory of a loved one. Attuned to both the harrowing and the sublime aspects of the human experience, Black in Blues is a poignant, spellbinding, and utterly original work from one of our greatest thinkers.

Ob 'Kippcouch', 'Schneckenbecker', 'Kellerassel', 'Fliegender Holländer', 'Gockel', 'Knoblauch Ede' oder 'Rolli' - Spitznamen sind oft derb, zeigen aber auch Vertrautheit - wie in einer guten, intakten Familie. In die der Leipziger Straßenbahnfahrerinnen und ¿fahrer wurde der Autor Mitte der 1970er-Jahre aufgenommen, als 'Karussell-Muske'.
In diesem Buch entfacht er ein Feuerwerk der Erinnerungen, zugleich eine Geschichte des wichtigsten Verkehrsunternehmens der Messestadt in den letzten über 50 Jahren. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Menschen, die mit Hingabe, größter Disziplin, Pünktlichkeit und Einsatzbereitschaft ihre Fahrgäste tagtäglich durch Leipzig fuhren - keine Heldentaten und aus einer Welt von gestern, aber unterhaltsam, flott und warmherzig erzählt.

The Psychology of Everything

The Psychology of Genealogy

'To see The Clash on the White Riot tour was like discovering how to be a rock star: you just did it yourself. You didn't wait for someone to come and discover you. That was the most important thing that came out of punk... We came home and we cut our hair and bought skinny trousers. It was year zero. That was the moment for me' Billy Bragg Punk Rock is a book like no other. It is an oral history of a radical movement which exploded in Seventies Britain. With its own clothes, hair, artwork, fanzines and radical politics, Punk boasted a DIY ethos that meant anyone could take part. The scene was uniquely vibrant and energetic, leaving an extraordinary legacy of notorious events, charismatic characters and inspirational music. John Robb has spent over a year interviewing more than 100 contributors including Glen Matlock, Mick Jones, Don Letts, Slash, Billy Bragg, Hugh Cornwell and Captain Sensible. Now, for the first time, they give the inside view on events such as The Sex Pistols' swearing live on the Bill Grundy TV show and staging their anti-Jubilee riverboat party on the Thames, famous gigs at The Roxy and 100 Club, and the groundbreaking records by The Pistols, The Clash, The Damned and others. From the widely debated roots of punk in the late-Sixties through to the fallout of the post-punk period in 1984, and the ongoing influence on today's bands, Punk Rock is the definitive oral history of an inimitable and exciting movement.

'This fascinating intellectual history of imagined paradises takes us from Thomas More to Ursula K Le Guin' (Guardian) Utopia is not somewhere you can go. But neither is it an idle fantasy. It runs through history and literature from Plato to Thomas More, Margaret Cavendish to Ursula Le Guin. Utopia, this book shows, was for them a tool for exploring the horizons of thought, asking the unaskable and challenging entrenched assumptions about how society has to be. The Uses of Utopia travels not only to the remote islands, parallel realities and distant planets where this played out, but also the places where those inspired by visions of perfection tried to establish them, from the egalitarian communities built in colonial Mexico to the novelist Étienne Cabet's disastrous attempt to realize socialism on the Mississippi. We see the groundbreaking ideas, about liberty and the law, sex and the sexes, work and wealth, that imagining an ideal society made possible. We hear the voices of radicals of many kinds talking freely to each other - and also to us. Here, in our imperfect world, how will you use utopia?

The Uses of Utopia

The first book in a gripping new series, perfect for fans of The Swifts, Murder Most Unladylike, Lockwood and Co and Wednesday. 'Spectacularly spooky . . . Full of warmth and humour, but threaded with delicious darkness' Philippa Leathley 'Percy Jackson meets Wednesday, with a huge dollop of originality on top' Thomas Taylor Lilac Black does not believe in ghosts. So she's rather surprised to learn she comes from a long line of gifted Seers, all of whom attended Spindlewood: a top-secret boarding school for children with the power to see, hear and communicate with spirits. And now, Lilac has an invitation to Spindlewood herself. The only problem? There's been a huge misunderstanding. Lilac does not have the gift. Reluctant to disappoint her proud uncles, and curious to see this mysterious school for herself, she decides to play along. But as Lilac's web of lies becomes more tangled, one thing is clear: there is something wrong at Spindlewood. Something ancient and sinister, hidden beneath the library. Something connected to the long-ago disappearance of Lilac's parents. Something waiting for her... 'It's hard to put your finger on the difference between a very good and a great book, but you know it when you see it. Spindlewood is a great book' Russell Franklin 'Fantastically fresh . . . Deliciously cosy and creepy all at once' Booklist

Spindlewood
