Celebrating the Great Classics of Children's Literature

Cambridge Themes in American Literature and Culture

Rewinding through five decades, this book listens closely to the bars, samples, and stories that have made hip-hop the true sound of America. Bringing together nineteen essays from leading figures in hip-hop studies, it traces lines of influence from Atlanta and Detroit all the way back to the Bronx and the Caribbean. The book's first half digs into the instrumental layers that continue to underpin hip-hop, while taking a close look at the poetic effects that lurk within key verses. For its second half, the focus turns to the larger culture, assessing the cluster of social tensions that are coming to define the US - and which can be heard in the nation's most powerful and controversial music. Accompanying the book is a 42-song playlist, including both iconic tracks and underground tapes, making it easy to follow the relevant beats and rhymes while reading each chapter.

Imagining Cities

The neighborhoods of New Orleans have given rise to an extraordinary outpouring of important writing. Over the last century and a half or so, these stories and songs have given the city its singular place in the human imagination. This book leads the reader along five thoroughfares that define these different parts of town - Royal, St. Claude, Esplanade, Basin, and St. Charles - to explore how the writers who have lived around them have responded in closely related ways to the environments they share. On the outskirts of New Orleans today, the city's precarious relation to its watery surroundings and the vexed legacies of race loom especially large. But the city's literature shows us that these themes have been near to hand for New Orleans writers for several generations, whether reflected through questions of masquerade, dreams of escape, the innocence of children, or the power of money or of violence or of memory.

Alpe Adria e dintorni, itinerari mediterranei

L'immagine un tempo radiosa delle regioni mediterranee si è visibilmente offuscata negli ultimi decenni a causa dei drastici effetti prodotti dal cambiamento climatico, dal riscaldamento globale e dalla siccità, a cui si affiancano emergenze economiche e sanitarie. In questa ottica, non sorprende come la natura minacciata dall'uomo sia stata e sia tuttora al centro di numerose rappresentazioni mediatiche ed estetiche dell'area mediterranea. In differenti forme di espressione artistica, tra film e opere d'arte e tra manifestazioni letterarie ed installazioni di varia natura, si riflette sulla dislocazione ecologica, se ne descrivono gli effetti passati e presenti e si ipotizzano conseguenze allarmanti per il futuro. Da ciò deriva una serie di quesiti di varia natura e portata quali il potenziale conflitto tra l'epistemologia tradizionale del Mediterraneo e i nuovi temi legati all'ambiente (con lo sfruttamento della natura e degli esseri umani) e la ricerca di possibili vie d'uscita dall'attuale crisi. Al centro dei quattordici saggi del volume - che si muovono nel solco dell'ecocritica attuale e dei più recenti studi mediterranei - si situano le diverse rappresentazioni estetiche dei fragili ecosistemi mediterranei.

Fragili idilli

A thrilling adventure set in the jungles of India from the Waterstones Children's Book Prize shortlisted author of Secrets of the Snakestone. A lost monkey. A cursed jewel. A race through the jungle.When Roma stumbles upon a rare golden monkey, she vows to return it to its hidden home in the Himalayas. But the path is riddled with peril: ruthless bandits, prowling beasts, and the sinister power of the Snakestone - a jewel that stalks her dreams. To make matters worse, Roma is forced to travel with Max and Arabella, two pampered children who seem more trouble than help. Only a mysterious map offers a chance of success - but with every step, pursuers of the Snakestone draw closer. Can Roma unlock the map's secret before the jungle swallows them whole?

The Golden Monkey Mystery

The dangerous belief that granting women reproductive freedom poses a threat to "traditional" values is a myth that has long prospered in American politics, playing an especially vicious role in the development of totalitarianism in the West. How did such damaging ideas arise?In Reproductive Wrongs, acclaimed translator and cultural historian Sarah Ruden exposes how ideologies that oppress women and families in the service of power took hold. Ruden traces a sweeping history through her trenchant analysis of seven pieces of literature that, she argues, marked key inflection points across two thousand years. From propagandistic poetry written by Ovid in the early Roman Empire to the biography of an evangelical American "abortion survivor", Ruden lays bare how doctrines of control over women were invented and propagated.Scathing and vital, Reproductive Wrongs unearths the evolution of a right-wing radicalism that endures to this day.

Schriften der Internationalen Artusgesellschaft

Arthurian research, which created a forum for itself with the founding of the International Arthurian Society in 1948, serves to explore the common cultural foundations of Europe. With around 250 medieval works in ten different languages, the Arthurian romance is undoubtedly one of the most successful epic genres of the European Middle Ages - with an unbroken tradition of productive reception to this day. Arthurian literature, which originated as regional-political poetry with reference to an older oral narrative tradition, soon became a forum for the supra-regional discussion of values, a space for finding social or cultural identity or a field for experimenting with literary forms. The volumes of the German-Austrian section of the Arthurian Society bring together the various research perspectives of the philologies dealing with Arthurian literature, each focusing on a central question. The volumes examine the relevance of concepts discussed in current literary and cultural studies (such as "myth" and "body concepts") for Arthurian research and the contribution that Arthurian research, which is fundamentally multi-perspectival due to its diversity of subjects and interdisciplinarity, can make to worldwide cultural and literary research.

 Das Spektrum von ›Klang‹ in literarischen Texten ist weit gefasst. Darunter fällt die Beschreibung akustischer Phänomene wie natürlicher oder technisch erzeugter Geräusche, Musik, Lärm, der menschlichen Stimme, aber auch der Klang des Textes an sich, also seine rhetorische oder metrische Gestaltung und die Frage nach seinem medialen Status. In der literaturwissenschaftlichen Forschung spielen die akustischen Dimensionen von Texten zunehmend eine wichtige Rolle, wofür die kulturwissenschaftlich orientierten, interdisziplinär ausgerichteten 
 sound studies
 den theoretisch-methodischen Rahmen bilden. Die Mediävistik hat diese neueren Forschungsansätze bereits in fruchtbarer Weise aufgegriffen; arthurische Texte wurden dabei aber bislang nur punktuell behandelt. Der vorliegende Band setzt an diesem Desiderat an und rückt Artusromane in den Mittelpunkt der Betrachtung. Anhand exemplarischer Fallstudien werden in den Beiträgen die vielfältigen Facetten der ›Klanglichkeit‹ des Artusromans untersucht. Dabei geht es um Klangphänomene im Text, aber auch um den Klang des Textes sowie die Verbindung dieser beiden Lautsphären; auch poetologische Aspekte, die mit der klanglichen Dimension des Artusromans zusammenhängen, werden berücksichtigt.

No Limits

Why must everything be so important--so dour and solemn, so grim and austere? How about a feather boa, some frilly lace, and a bright splash of pink? In Frivolity, Jehanne Dubrow stands up for the seemingly shallow and trifling, calling for a reconsideration of what we find worthy and what we dismiss. This book is a provocation. It offers a defense of the pursuits, objects, and people denigrated as frivolous, asking why we so readily scorn them and why, in particular, the label is so often tied to femininity and queerness. Its 101 sections move lightly across literature, art, and popular culture, from Susan Sontag, Sei Shōnagon, Jane Austen, and Mozart to Barbie, Nora Ephron rom-coms, exclamation points, and Dubrow's own "Year of Perfect Skin." Written in a lyrical style, this book takes both an intimate and a rigorous approach to thinking about the frivolous, blending personal essay with scholarship. For Dubrow, frivolity is a way of affirming the importance of joy and silliness. And don't we need a little more of both these things in an era made all too serious by autocracy and terror?

Very Short Introductions

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring

This Very Short Introduction brings together a wide range of narratives of slavery across a broad historical period to understand how Black people--enslaved and not-enslaved--have experienced and imagined slavery. It also investigates how slavery's long reach and afterlife has continued to shape Black life in the twenty-first century. By giving attention to the narratives produced during the last two hundred plus years, this volume examines American chattel slavery as a specific historical period that legally ended in 1865, and yet recognizes its impacts, effects, and significance as extending into the twenty-first century. Slave narratives tie the life of slavery its abolition with its afterlife and the reconfigurations that followed--Black Codes, Jim Crow segregation, and many other forms of disenfranchisement. 

Robert J. Patterson examines so-called "traditional" slave narratives alongside writings from non-enslaved Black people in the nineteenth century, the imaginative works of twentieth century fiction, and twenty-first century cinema to create a compelling and informative introduction to the long historical arc of slavery woven into the cultural and political fabric of America. 

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Black Narratives of Slavery

The definitive, all-access biography of one of the world's most beloved literary voices, showcasing a life as triumphant and inspiring as the stories she crafted. 
To know the name Judy Blume is to know and love literature. Her influential novels turned classics - including Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret; Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing; Deenie; and Summer Sisters - touched the lives of tens of millions of readers. For more than fifty-five years her work has done something revolutionary: it rewired the world's expectations of what literature for young people can be - frank, candid, earthy, and unafraid to show the messier sides of humanity. But little has been written about the real woman behind the iconic persona and the unlikely journey of her literary ascension, until now. 
In Judy Blume, journalist, historian, and longtime Blume aficionado Mark Oppenheimer pens a beautiful, multidimensional portrait of the acclaimed author through extensive interviews with Blume herself, invaluable access to her papers and correspondence, and thoughtful analysis of Blume's beloved novels, including early, unpublished works that shed light on the pathbreaking writer she would become. Oppenheimer goes deep, exploring Blume's middle-class 1940s upbringing, complicated childhood, varied relationships and marriages, unabashed sexual experiences, bouts of heartache and loss, and enduring legacy as a champion of free speech and contemporary literature. He pulls back the curtain to reveal the woman behind the literary empire in all her complex, multifaceted glory - a true gift for anyone who grew up reading and loving these extraordinary books.

Critical South

In this book, the leading Brazilian cultural theorist Flora Süssekind analyzes the turbulent recent history of Brazil. She examines the protests which erupted in Brazil in 2013 and the ways in which these were appropriated by the extreme right, and she shows how these developments expressed a break from and threat to the democratic orientation and social pact represented by the 1988 Constitution, a collective achievement after decades of dictatorship. She also shows how these events contributed and pointed to the rise of a culture of intolerance, bringing this to bear upon literary and artistic production. Süssekind's original concept of the chorus, understood not simply as a musical or theatrical category but as a structural force in culture, enables her to highlight the critical potential of cultural production and its power to redirect the course of events. She argues that it was during Brazil's recent history that the choral inflection emerged as a structuring force in culture. By documenting the dramatic shift in literary and artistic production from 2013 to the present day, Süssekind presents a sophisticated cartography for understanding literary and artistic production within a culture of dissent. This innovative book will be of value to anyone interested in Latin American studies, literary and cultural studies, and the history and politics of Brazil.
