Positioning Henry James within his transatlantic and pan-European contexts, Peter Rawlings relocates James and the New Criticism's ideology of organicism in biology rather than in aesthetics. He argues that the novel as a character-driven genre emerged from philosophical and scientific thinking about consciousness and that James's canonization must be reexamined in the context of the philosophical, physiological, and biological discourses on which he drew in his theory and practice as a novelist.

Positioning Henry James within his transatlantic and pan-European contexts, Peter Rawlings relocates James and the New Criticism's ideology of organicism in biology rather than in aesthetics. Rawlings argues that the novel as a genre anchored in the representation of character emerged from philosophical and scientific thinking about consciousness and experience that begins in the late seventeenth century and encompasses two hundred years of traffic between Europe and America. His ambitious study explores the significance of American thinkers and their European antecedents, from Jonathan Edwards to Josiah Royce, aligning James's 1884 essay "The Art of Fiction" with contemporary thinking on consciousness and its dense, ramifying aetiology. By this point, Herbert Spencer had extended Darwin's evolutionary thinking into the social domain, disrupting ideas about consciousness as allied with the soul even as the fin-de-siècle enthusiasm for panpsychism and the paranormal made a last stand against the New Sciences. A major contention of Rawlings's book is that Henry James should not and cannot be isolated from the urgent need to rethink what seminal critics such as Ian Watt and Marthe Robert have said about the procession of the novel from prose fiction. James's canonization by the New Critics motivates Rawlings's reexamination of Walter Scott, Jane Austen, Susan Warner, and George Eliot, among others, in the context of the vast range of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century European and North American philosophical, physiological, and biological discourses on which James drew in his theory and practice as a novelist.

Die Lakefront-Billionaires-Reihe

Die »Lakefront Billionaires« sind zurück! Der krönende Abschluss der spicy Romance-Reihe von TikTok-Sensation und SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautorin Lauren Asher.

Fake-Dating mit dem Mann, den sie nie wieder küssen wollte? Herzschmerz vorprogrammiert! Lorenzo Vittori ist der letzte Mann, mit dem Lily Muñoz eine Beziehung eingehen sollte – zumindest, wenn es nach ihrer Familie geht. Doch ihrem Blumengeschäft droht das Aus, und der einzige Weg, das zu verhindern, ist, Lorenzo zu helfen, die anstehende Bürgermeisterwahl in Lake Wisteria zu gewinnen. Mit dem Golden Girl der Kleinstadt an seiner Seite sollte das kein Problem sein. Der Deal ist einfach: öffentliche Küsse, private Distanz. Keine echten Gefühle. Kein Risiko. Blöd nur, dass Lily und Lorenzo eine gemeinsame Vergangenheit haben. Und noch blöder, dass sich ihre Fake-Beziehung bald echter anfühlt als jede davor. Er will keine Liebe. Sie will keine Lügen. Und nichts ist so gefährlich wie eine Lüge, die sich wie die Wahrheit anfühlt. Außer vielleicht die Erkenntnis, dass ihre Gefühle im Grunde nie wirklich gespielt waren.

A complete history of the sex lives of all the men who became President of the United states. Here are their biographies told through their relationships, perceived and real. There was a president who behaved like Harvey Weinstein; there was the exhibitionist president; two presidents who regarded the White-House typing pool as their private escort service; the president who gave drugs (including amyl nitrate) to secretaries; many presidents who visited prostitutes; presidents besotted with very young women; and let's not forget the story of one recent president who got drunk and danced naked. This book will change the reader's view of the role of President of the United States forever.

An utterly embarrassing sex history of the 44 men who became POTUS, from Donald Trump to George Washington and including Joe Biden as Obama's VP.

Architect, artist, designer, and visionary, Frederick Kiesler was one of the most fascinating figures of the twentieth century. He staged unconventional exhibitions that became an art form, bridging the gap between Viennese Modernism and De Stijl, Surrealism and the American avant-garde of the 1960s. Probably no other artist has worked for so long in such different worlds and so widely as he has. His innovative works respond to their environment-no object exists on its own. For him, life and art were always in motion and interchangeable.
 FREDERICK (FRIEDRICH) KIESLER (1890-1965), born in Czernowitz&nbsp;(formerly Austria-Hungary, now Ukraine) and educated in Vienna, has continued to this day to inspire artists from a wide range of disciplines.

How the country that came to elect Obama could also elect Trump &nbsp; How did Americans come to elect Barack Obama—and then Donald Trump? Those choices capture what Paul Starr calls the American contradiction. &nbsp; The whole truth about America, Starr argues in this new history of the United States since the 1950s, has never been contained in one consistent set of values or interests. Our nation was born in the contradiction between freedom and slavery. Today it is beset by a contradiction between a changing people and a resisting nation, a nation with entrenched institutions that have empowered those who fear the changes and look to restore an old America of their imagining. &nbsp; Starr tells this history from the dual standpoints of the progressive movements that changed the American people and of the movements that emerged in response. Black Americans, he argues, served as a model minority, setting in motion America’s twentieth‑century revolutions in gender as well as race and rights. With industry’s decline and the rise of economic inequality, millions of Americans have felt dispossessed and want the old America back. Trump is their revenge. American Contradiction tells the story of how 1950s America became the almost unrecognizable America of the 2020s.

Demonstrating a wide array of influences-from Chinese calligraphy to Expressionism-Liu Wei's work deals with universal themes of humanity. With a career spanning over thirty years, he has proved a master of rendering human flesh and combining figuration with text and abstraction. Liu Wei's deft grasp of technique and acute awareness of color and composition is evident in his lush landscapes, in which flora and fauna often escape the confines of the canvas and spill out onto the Rococo-style frames. Featuring texts by distinguished specialists in contemporary Chinese art, this first major English-language monograph provides an in-depth look at the historical context and traces his development from his early paintings reflecting disenchantment with political and artistic utopias through the lenses of skepticism and satire, to lush landscapes, striking portraits, and more recent philosophic and contemplative calligraphic works on paper. LIU WEI (*1965, Beijing), studied printmaking at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, where he still lives today. He first rose to prominence as a preeminent figure in China's "cynical realism" movement of the 1990s. His paintings have been shown in museum exhibitions and biennials worldwide, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, the Singapore Art Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Venice Biennale.

Kriegsgefangenschaft war eine tiefgreifende Erfahrung für Militärangehörige im Russländischen Reich und in der Sowjetunion. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes untersuchen Lageralltag, Gewalt, Überlebensstrategien zwischen Widerstand und Kollaboration sowie Heimkehr und Reintegration in die Heimatgesellschaften. Der Blick auf den Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg, den Russisch-Japanischen Krieg sowie den Sowjetischen Afghanistankrieg zeigt Kontinuitäten in den Vorstellungen von Gefangenschaft auf und trägt zugleich dazu bei, die jeweils spezifische Erfahrung der Kriege schärfer zu konturieren.

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The book explores the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy, addressing issues including their contribution to the social economy, how they have been affected by U.S economic restructuring, and the impact of increasing economic inequality on the wellbeing of black women and children.

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The authors use a Black Feminist framework along with applied microeconomics and econometrics in order to understand the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy. The book’s multi-dimensional analysis covers issues including black women’s contribution to the social economy, how economic restructuring in the U.S. has impacted on black women, and how declining wages since the 1970s have led to economic inequality and the impact that this has had on the wellbeing of black women and children. All chapters situate their analysis of the economic status of black women within the context of market forces, social relations among counter-groups, and political economy. This groundbreaking study will be essential reading for all those with an interest in Economics, Women’s Studies, Africana Studies and Sociology.
