Methuen Drama Play Collections

Young Adult Edition

The Methuen Drama Book of Trans Plays Volume 3

An uplifting collection of real-life stories of the rebels, resistance fighters, saboteurs, escapees and survivors who held on to hope through the horrors of the Holocaust When Auschwitz was liberated in 1945, after the horror of one of history's greatest atrocities, the world rejoiced. Although seven thousand people had survived this ordeal, the camp had also been witness to countless others who had resisted, sabotaged and even escaped from their captors. Some fought for their freedom or against injustice, and others disrupted Nazi operations. Then there were those who found ways to hold on to hope and positivity and spread it to their fellow inmates - a source of light in one of the world's darkest places. This book celebrates those heroes of Auschwitz, telling the inspiring true stories of the ordinary prisoners who became symbols of hope and defiance. At turns touching and uplifting, these stories show the best of humankind and are testament to the incredible resilience and bravery that shines through even in the toughest times.

Inspiring True Stories of Hope, Love and Survival

Stories of Hope from Auschwitz

'A brilliant and challenging book' GORDON BROWNFrom the founder of Britain's leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies - and how to go about it.If you're shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you're not alone.Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain - with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK - has been far from immune from far-right politics.From HOPE not hate's pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the 'manosphere' and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of 'race science' and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain's deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism.His conclusions - which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners - suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples - from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford - of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate.

How to Defeat the Far Right

Adolfo Bioy Casares sah im Kino eine gewaltige Herausforderung für die Literatur, auf die er mit spezifisch literarischen Strategien reagierte. Bei den Verfilmungen seiner Texte erwiesen sich just diese Techniken als große Hürden: Die Herausforderung durch den Film wandelte sich zu einer Herausforderung an den Film. Matthias Hausmann widmet sich den filmisch geprägten Texten des argentinischen Autors sowie deren Adaptionen für die Leinwand. Damit rückt er einen bislang wenig beachteten Komplex der Film-Literatur-Beziehungen in den Fokus und gewinnt dadurch neue Erkenntnisse über narrative Verfahren, insbesondere die mise en abyme.

From the bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist, a book about how to change minds - including your own 'Brilliant and enlightening' DAVINA MCCALL 'An essential guide for fostering nuanced and intricate conversations in today's polarized society' GILLIAN ANDERSON 'Tackles thorny, volatile issues with wit and insight' INDEPENDENT, BOOKS OF THE MONTH 'The book we need right now' DAVID TENNANT 'Thought-provoking and witty' MARIE CLAIRE 'If you have ever felt shut down, this book is a godsend' EMMA THOMPSON 'Shows us that progress lies in the imperfect spaces, where our shared humanity gives empathy the freedom to stretch out' THE TIMES 'Finally! A book to succinctly express the complexity of our age' TOM ALLEN *** We are understandably scared to have difficult conversations right now. But comedian and bestselling writer Deborah Frances-White is even more scared of not having them. Having grown up in a cult which shut down any dissent, Deborah sees the same tactics being used in today's rapidly changing society. She knows the value of freedom of speech, critical thinking and the ability to argue well. And as the host of hit podcast The Guilty Feminist, she has been having difficult conversations in public for almost a decade. In her new, urgent page turner, Deborah examines how the world has come to this and what we can actually do about it. Most importantly, she explores how to change minds, including our own. Are you ready to talk?

How to change minds, including your own - 'The book we need right now' (David Tennant)

Six Conversations We're Scared to Have

A Norton Short

Biologically, race does not exist. But in our social world, it remains decidedly important. Mainstream scientists embrace these truths, yet misinformation about human variation and genetics persists in our society. What is the true relationship between the two? And how should we talk about identity in science and medicine?In deeply researched, masterful prose, sociologist Rina Bliss guides us through the invention and evolution of the concept. She reveals how the myth of distinct, biological races endures in medicine, science and social policy-warping our understanding of complex topics like intelligence, disease susceptibility and behaviour. Even well-intentioned researchers add to the confusion by introducing racial analysis in contexts where it doesn't belong, resulting in misleading reports that amplify harmful assumptions and ignore the social forces at work. At a time when misinformation about our bodies and identities is dangerously prevalent, Bliss unmasks what's truly real about race: namely, racism's impact on our bodies and lives.<ul><li>A Norton Short</li>

Julius Caesar

The real political mission of Malcolm X, and why it needs resurrecting now - 100 years after his birth Malcolm X is a titanic figure in political history, but he is also one of the most misunderstood. So much of what we know about his life and politics is from books, films and documentaries that are all guilty of peddling the Malcolm myth for their own nefarious interests. Forever known as the violent Yang to Martin Luther King's Yin, in the years since his death he has been co-opted into the American project, punished by his enemies for his radicalism, and marginalised by decades of governments, academics and activists. But here, for the first time, Malcolm is rediscovered. On the centenary of his birthday, in a world shaken by decades of injustice and racism, Malcolm's political mission is more urgent than ever. In Nobody Can Give You Freedom, Kehinde Andrews reveals his real revolutionary programme. Malcolm's activism was his philosophy, and paying attention to it reveals the true cultural icon - who, if he were alive today, would tell us to pick up the mantle, and overturn this wicked system for good.

Mercatus Studies in Political and Social Economy

“In&nbsp;A Grammar for Riots, authors Nona and Virgil Storr provide a compelling reassessment of the significance of the Burma Road Riot.… Beyond a solid theoretical intervention, the authors are to be commended for the depth of archival and ethnographic research that makes this study an excellent contribution to Bahamian social-political history and larger studies on public disturbances.”—Christopher Curry, author of&nbsp;Freedom and Resistance
"This book provides a fascinating account of the 1942 riot that occurred in the Bahamas.”—Matthew Moran, author of The Republic and the Riots
“As a Bahamian and as someone who has spent years in public service, I fully&nbsp;endorse&nbsp;the powerful and necessary insights that&nbsp;Disruptive Orders brings to our understanding of the 1942 riot and its lasting impact on The Bahamas. This important work reframes the event as a catalyst for change. It does not glorify unrest but provides a thoughtful framework to understand why such moments arise and how they shape the trajectory of a people.”—J. Kwasi Thompson, Member of Parliament for East Grand Bahama and Former Minister of State for Grand Bahama and Finance
“Hayekian spontaneous order meets the theory and practice of urban riots. In&nbsp;Disruptive Orders, Nona and Virgil Storr offer a fascinating and persuasive account of the role of spontaneous street protests in driving social change. Creative social theory at its best.”—Mark Pennington, author of Foucault and Liberal Political Economy
Are riots more than just breakdowns of order? Are rioters just violently and chaotically disrupting the status quo or are they individuals acting together in a&nbsp;surprisingly orderly manner? In Disruptive Orders, Nona Martin Storr and Virgil Henry Storr argue that riots are rule-governed, self-generating, emergent phenomena. Viewing riots as what they call “tensive emergent orders” offers a grammar for discussing riots that foregrounds the motivations and actions of individual rioters, the tacit rules that rioters follow, and the socio-political causes and consequences of riots . Applying this grammar to the 1942 riot that occurred in the Bahamas, Storr and Storr demonstrate how the 1942 riot was not just a momentary outburst but a watershed event in the country’s history, ushering in far-reaching socio-political changes. As we move into an era of frequent extreme protests, Disruptive Orders urges us to rethink why the threatened and marginalized sometimes speak through riots and gives us a framework to assess the impact of their speaking in this way.
&nbsp;
Nona Martin Storr&nbsp;is Senior Affiliated Scholar at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. Her scholarly work has focused on the political and social histories of disadvantaged communities. She holds a PhD in History from George Mason University and a MA in Public History (with an emphasis in oral history) from Loyola University Chicago. Her writings on riots have appeared in the Journal of Caribbean History, Island Studies Journal, and&nbsp;Space and Culture.
Virgil Henry Storr is Don C. Lavoie Senior Fellow in the he Mercatus Center's F.A. Hayek Program in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and Professor of Economics at George Mason University. Storr’s previous books with Palgrave Macmillan include Do Markets Corrupt Our Morals? and Community Revival in the Wake of Disaster.

Tension, Riots, and Social Change

Disrupting Order

What if we&nbsp;did&nbsp;abolish police, courts or prisons? Where would we turn for justice? Do we need to have laws? Punishment? These questions are not just the preoccupation of an abolitionist pipedream. Their answers exist already, if only we know where to look.

We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;introduces the reader to communities around the world who are already resolving harms and conflicts themselves, without looking to the state or judiciary. The book explores a number of locations where alternative forms of justice, peace-keeping and adjudication are taking place. With particular focus on indigenous- and women-led movements from across Mexico, Argentina, Rojava and the USA, Marina Sitrin looks at how each came to be, as well as the theoretical and political underpinnings of the process.

The book allows the reader to reflect on the ways in which the seeds of these alternative forms of justice and adjudication have been planted and nurtured over time-often over decades-and to consider the possibilities for other communities and regions to produce something similar.&nbsp;We Make Our Own Justice&nbsp;offers an invaluable resource as we seek to transform our neighbourhoods, groups and communities into abolitionist spaces in theory and practice.

Happy Centenary, Pinocchio!
 is a pioneering study of the cultural journey of Italian children's literature into postwar Poland. With its meticulous research, it explores how Italian authors-both iconic and lesser-known ones-entered the Polish literary landscape during a politically charged era. Drawing on literary reception theory, bibliology and press studies, the book retraces the mechanisms that impacted the selection, translation and dissemination of Italian works for young readers under a centrally regulated publishing system.
Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis, Katarzyna Biernacka-Licznar examines how socio-political factors, censorship and publishing policies influenced what Polish children could read. Her study offers a panoramic view of Italian children's literature from the unification of Italy to the year 1989, while also discussing the reception of individual authors, such as Carlo Collodi, Edmondo De Amicis and Gianni Rodari. It draws on a wide range of sources, from archival censorship records to interviews with translators and editors, to provide a rich, interdisciplinary account of literary exchange.

Interpreting The Amistad Trials traces the signal importance of interpreters and translators in the famous 19th-century Amistad case and discusses how race, ethnicity, slavery, and colonialism shaped this story. From the recruitment process to the various oral to sign languages that mediated linguistically in the Africans' life inside and outside the courtroom, and from evidentiary documents to fraudulent translations to credible testimonies, Jeanette Zaragoza-De León demonstrates the crucial importance of translation and interpretation in the Amistad plot and outcome. De León examines handwritten letters, pamphlets, newspapers, and judicial files, and adopts a critical race theory and postcolonial lens to analyze these materials. Although these critical interpretations and translations travelled transatlantically via Europe, Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States, De León highlights the common thread which also geographically unites Venezuela, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic as part of the Amistad story. One of the most comprehensive studies of recorded events in the history of interpretation and translation in the Americas, Interpreting The Amistad Trials is a valuable resource for researchers studying coloniality, enslavement, race and ethnic studies and examining how these issues mattered then and now.
