Palgrave Studies in Performance and Migration

This book maps the history of circus practice in colonial and post-colonial India, locating it as a unique genre within a larger field of cultural practice. It facilitates a close study of acts, performers, and performances, both historically and in the contemporary repertoire, with changing patterns of migration. At the centre of the research remains the debate which on the one hand labels the circus as ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ against its contrasting narrative as a marginal form and even an exploitive entity towards animals and child performers. Cosmopolitanism, actor network theories, phenomenology, feminist, gender, and the postcolonial discourse are some of the theoretical frameworks which enable and inform this reading of the distinct circus practice in India.Aastha Gandhi&nbsp;teaches theatre and performance coursework for graduate programmes at the School of Culture and Creative Expressions,&nbsp;Ambedkar University Delhi, India. Her recently published essays include: ‘Indian Circus: a Melting Pot of Migrant Artists, Performativity, and Race’ (The Palgrave Handbook of Theatre and Migration, Palgrave Macmillan, 2023) and ‘The Indo-Soviet Circus Exchange amidst the Cold War: a State Propaganda or a People’s Art Form?’&nbsp; (Performing the Cold War in the Postcolonial World: Theatre, Film, Literature, and Things, 2023). A researcher and performer, Aastha's research engages with the circus, networks, law, and discourses of the performing body. A degree in law adds to her multi- faceted, inter-disciplinary approach to performance research.&nbsp;

Performance, Networks, and Migration

A Critical History of the Indian Circus

Hatje Cantz Text

Stopgap Measures presents an exciting selection of essays,
interviews and shorter pieces on the work of American artist
Mike Kelley (1954-2012) written over more than three
decades by the noted art historian and cultural critic John
C. Welchman.

Kelley's provocative career gave rise to some of the most
conceptually and materially diverse work of recent times-
in performance, writing, painting, drawing, sculpture, banners,
multimedia installation, appropriated objects and
images and video, as well as numereous collaborations.
This volume includes reflections on specific works, and features
a signature series of pathbreaking essays on Kelley's
innovations in photography and writing as well as explorations
of major themes in his practice, research and thinking:
physical comedy and verbal humor; memory; popular
culture, dress-up and Americana; the uncanny; imaginative
projection and dark fantasy; appropriation and giving;
authorship and self-construction; and the artist's littleremarked
upon negotiation with the histories of and ideas
about Asia. The book concludes with new essays on Kelley's
engagement with animals and the nonhuman; and on the
refrain disappearances that punctuate Kelley's career set
in relation to specters of social catastrophe and nuclear
annihilation.

On Digital Architecture in Ten Books

Applied Virtuality Book Series

Treatise on digital architecture Hovestadt's treatise strictly follows the model of the famous treatises by Vitruvius (De architectura) and Alberti (De re aedificatoria), based on the supposition that we find ourselves in a comparable situation today. Vitruvius and Alberti expressed the meaning of architecture in their eras: Roman antiquity and the Renaissance. Hovestadt has done the same for the present day, incorporating considerations of physics, mathematics, technology, literature, and philosophy. Books 1 to 3 deal with the role of the architect and the objectivity of architecture. Books 4 to 6 address the modalities of speaking about and encoding architecture: the secret, the public, and the private. Books 7 to 10 are dedicated to actual digital mechanisms: artificial intelligence, natural communication, gnomonics, and cultural heritage. <ul> <li>An architectural treatise for our age in 10 books </li> <li>Inspired by the works of Vitruvius and Alberti </li> <li>Published in three volumes in the Applied Virtuality series </li></ul>

Animation ist umfangreich, heterogen und allgegenwärtig. Ihre Bandbreite reicht von abstrakten Formexperimenten, über den Zeichentrick- und animierten Puppenfilm bis zu computergenerierten Oberflächen. Aus diesem Grund kann nicht von einer Animationsforschung im Sinne einer klar abgesteckten Disziplin gesprochen werden, sondern von einer Vielzahl an Theorien, Methoden und Forschungsfeldern. Das Handbuch führt in diese Felder ein und bietet einen Überblick über zentrale Bezugspunkte der interdisziplinären Animation Studies. Die Beiträge von 36 Autor_innen fassen bisherige relevante, historische, theoretische und analytische Erkenntnisse über Animation zusammen, machen aber auch Potenziale und Veränderungen durch die zunehmende Digitalisierung deutlich und geben Impulse für zukünftige Bereiche der Animationsforschung.

Pier Paolo Pasolini gehört zu den streitbarsten und schillerndsten Figuren des 20. Jahrhunderts, dessen Texte und Filme – er war Dichter und gleichzeitig Regisseur – die Gemüter bis auf den heutigen Tag bewegen und durch ihren experimentellen Charakter herausfordern. Anlässlich seines 100. Geburtstages im Jahr 2022 wird Pasolinis „Kino der Poesie“ jenseits seiner Provokationen und Skandale neu perspektiviert. Pasolinis Insistieren auf Mythen und Märchen pocht auf eine Nachhaltigkeit jenseits von Konsum und Konformität. Das Pasolinische ‚Licht der Dichtung‘ inszeniert faszinierende Bilder, die der Autor zugleich in semiotischen Auseinandersetzungen u.a. gegen Umberto Ecos Kritik verteidigt.

Palgrave Studies in Adaptation and Visual Culture

Alexandre Dumas's literary reputation has been ascending, particularly within France, but he is still an underappreciated writer among scholars. Nevertheless, his Three Musketeers have become woven into the cultural fabric of our global civilization. Weinberg adroitly examines reasons for the appeal and significance of these characters within popular culture, as well as the myriad ways in which they have been imagined and reimagined in various media over time. In so doing, she makes a valuable contribution to studies on Dumas and reveals why he remains one of the most popular writers in the world.
--Dr. Eric Martone (Dean of the School of Education,&nbsp;Professor, History/Social Studies Education,&nbsp;Mercy University, USA) 
This book offers a groundbreaking exploration of Alexandre Dumas’s enduring&nbsp; legacy, focusing on his most celebrated work, The Three Musketeers. Despite its global popularity and cultural impact, critical studies on Dumas and his iconic novel are surprisingly scarce. This monograph breaks new ground as the first modern critical study dedicated to The Three Musketeers, examining its myriad adaptations across diverse cultures and media. Delving into the rich tapestry of Adaptation Studies, this book transcends traditional analyses by exploring a wide array of adaptations beyond the familiar Anglo-centric lens. From India to the Slavic world, and especially examining Latin America, it provides a comprehensive examination of how The Three Musketeers has been reimagined in various cultural contexts. Readers will discover how this serialized novel evolved into a cornerstone of Western culture, tracing its journey through 19th-century printings, stage versions, and children’s books. This monograph also investigates the global screen presence – or absence – of the Musketeers. Scholars and enthusiasts alike will find this book invaluable for understanding Dumas’s complex identity as a mixed-race author in 19th-century France. It sheds light on the criticism he faced during his lifetime and how he became the object of systemic erasure from his works. By examining how Dumas’s identity has influenced the adaptation and circulation of his stories, this book reveals the intricate relationship between author and characters. This essential read is perfect for researchers in literature, film studies, cultural studies, and anyone intrigued by the fascinating interplay between text and adaptation.

Authorship, Transmission and Adaptation through The Three Musketeers

For 125 years, the Museum of Decorative Arts (Kunstgewerbemuseum) at Dresden's Pillnitz Palace has been home to a treasure trove of Japanese craftsmanship that has remained largely unknown. It consists of 92 cassettes holding more than 15,000 dyeing stencils for textile printing. These so-called katagami were used primarily for fabrics from which the kimonos of samurais were tailored. They show geometric ornaments as well as patterns and motifs depicting elements of nature in virtuoso abstraction, and were handmade from mulberry bark in a lengthy process and engraved using the finest cutting techniques. Fabrics decorated with katagami prints came to Europe in the 19th century and soon had a strong influence on fine and applied art as well as emerging industrial design. This ancient technique remains influential today in graffiti and street art, for example in the works of celebrated street artist and political activist Banksy.This opulent book features for the first time around 140 katagami of outstanding quality from the unique Dresden collection. The selection is dedicated to the representation of rain and water, which have been of major spiritual and cultural significance throughout Japan's history. Some 220 illustrations, mainly in full color, are supplemented with essays by international scholars, who explore in detail all aspects of these fascinating works of Japanese applied art.

Stil ist keine Nebensache - er entscheidet über Wirkung und Erfolg. Wer Eindruck hinterlassen möchte, braucht mehr als nur Fachwissen: Haltung, Kleidung und Manieren machen den Unterschied. Es sind die Details, die Großes bewirken. Doch warum tragen Männer abgelaufene Schuhe, schlechtsitzende Anzüge und verwechseln "Business Casual" oft mit "Come as you are"? Und wieso glauben viele, Manieren seien veraltet? Dieses Buch zeigt mit Humor und klaren Regeln, wie Männer sich stilvoll und selbstbewusst präsentieren - im Job und privat. Praxisnah, unterhaltsam und voller Insider-Tipps aus der Welt der Spitzenmanager. Denn guter Stil ist nicht teuer, aber unbezahlbar.

This book defines media subimperialism through three key characteristics: resistance and collaboration with imperial media, regional dominance despite partial domination by imperial systems, and reliance on imperial media for technology and content. Here, “imperial” or “metropolitan” media refers to systems rooted in imperial centers. Together, these traits not only clarify the role of “southern players” in global media but also challenge the notion that they signal the end of media imperialism. Grounded in Marxist theories of imperialism and subimperialism, this work offers a novel perspective on the rise of media giants from the global South.This book is a groundbreaking contribution to global media studies for two main reasons: it frames emerging media giants from the South as subimperial powers and, uniquely, examines multiple case studies (e.g., Brazil, South Africa, Turkey) collectively rather than individually. It highlights a phenomenon at the intersection of media and power.This book’s scope is twofold: first, it conceptualizes media subimperialism in the context of globalization, global hegemony, and media imperialism; second, it examines a range of case studies to allow for comparative insights, with at least seven cases analyzed. As pioneering research, this book sets the stage for future studies and captivate media scholars and students worldwide.Farooq Sulehria is Assistant Professor in the Department of Liberal Arts, Beaconhouse National University, Lahore.
