D. H. Lawrence and Psychoanalysis

D. H. Lawrence and Psychoanalysis

This book opens out a wholly new field of enquiry within a familiar subject: it offers a detailed – yet eminently readable – historical investigation of a kind never yet undertaken of the impact of psychoanalysis (at a crucial moment of its history) on the thinking and writing of D. H. Lawrence. It considers the impact on his writing through his relationship with Frieda Weekley of the maverick Austrian analyst Otto Gross; it situates the great works of 1911-20 in relation to the controversial issues at stake in the Freud-Jung quarrel about which his good friend the English psychoanalyst David Eder kept him informed; and it explores his sympathy with the maverick American analyst Trigant Burrow. It is a study to interest a literary audience by its close reading of Lawrence’s texts and a psychoanalytic audience by its detailed consideration of the contribution made to contemporary debate by three comparatively neglected analytic thinkers. | D.

D. H. Lawrence Ecofeminism and Nature

D. H. Lawrence Ecofeminism and Nature

Shortlisted for the ASLE-UKI Prize for Best Academic Monograph This is the first ecocritical book on the works of D. H. Lawrence and also the first to consider the links between nature and gender in the poetry and the novels. In his search for a balanced relationship between male and female characters what role does nature play in the challenges Lawrence offers his readers? How far are the anxieties of his characters in negotiating relationships that might threaten their sense of self derived from the same source as their anxieties about engaging with the Other in nature? Indeed might Lawrence’s metaphors drawn from nature actually be the causes of human actions in The Rainbow for example? The originality of Lawrence’s poetic and narrative strategies for challenging social attitudes towards both nature and gender can be revealed by new approaches offered by ecocritical theory and ecofeminist readings of his books. This book explores ecocritical notions to frame its ecofeminist readings from the difference between the ‘Other’ and ‘otherness’ in The White Peacock and Lady Chatterley’s Lover ‘anotherness’ in the poetry of Birds Beasts and Flowers psychogeography in Sea and Sardinia emergent ecofeminism in Sons and Lovers land and gender in The Boy in the Bush gender dialogics in Kangaroo human animality in Women in Love trees as tests in Aaron’s Rod to ‘radical animism’ in The Plumed Serpent. Finally three late tales provide a reassessment of ecofeminist insights into Lawrence’s work for readers in the present context of the Anthropocene. | D. H. Lawrence Ecofeminism and Nature

Journeys in Narrative Inquiry The Selected Works of D. Jean Clandinin

Journeys in Narrative Inquiry The Selected Works of D. Jean Clandinin

Organized around a metaphor of an academic journey D. Jean Clandinin offers published tracings of an unfolding journey over 40 years that at its outset appeared to focus only on questions of epistemology. However the book illuminates how that apparent beginning focus shape-shifted to questions of methodology ethics ontology and subsequently political concerns. Clandinin shows that even at the outset her research wonders were grounded in relational understandings of experience understandings that were simultaneously ontological methodological epistemological and ethical. Jean’s work is collaborative an engagement alongside others and within the contexts in which they and she lived and worked including those who were participants in the research. She continues to acknowledge that narrative inquiry changes people’s ways of being in the world and those changes have ethical significance. While what she and her colleagues now call relational ethics has always been central recently her sense of ethics has become more explicitly political. She shows the development of ideas over time beginning as she entered doctoral work and continuing through 2019 and onward. Jean’s work centered on relational understandings of experience highlights ethical dimensions and has come to define narrative understandings for generations of researchers. This book will be an invaluable resource for researchers and graduate students and professional researchers in both educational and healthcare settings. . | Journeys in Narrative Inquiry The Selected Works of D.

Technology Business and the Market From R&D to Desirable Products

Technology Business and the Market From R&D to Desirable Products

Using case studies Technology Business and the Market explores the impact of new materials techniques and technologies and looks at the links between innovation entrepreneurship business (including finance) design manufacturing branding and marketing.

The Book of the Jihad of 'Ali ibn Tahir al-Sulami (d. 1106) Text Translation and Commentary

The Book of the Jihad of 'Ali ibn Tahir al-Sulami (d. 1106) Text Translation and Commentary

In 1105 six years after the first crusaders from Europe conquered Jerusalem a Damascene Muslim jurisprudent named ’Ali ibn Tahir al-Sulami (d. 1106) publicly dictated an extended call to the military jihad (holy war) against the European invaders. Entitled Kitab al-Jihad (The Book of the Jihad) al-Sulami’s work both summoned his Muslim brethren to the jihad and instructed them in the manner in which it ought to be conducted covering topics as diverse as who should fight and be fought treatment of prisoners and plunder and the need for participants to fight their own inner sinfulness before turning their efforts against the enemy. Al-Sulami’s text is vital for a complete understanding of the Muslim reaction to the crusades providing the reader with the first contemporary record of Muslim preaching against the crusaders. However until recently only a small part of the text has been studied by modern scholars as it has remained for the most part an unedited manuscript. In this book Niall Christie provides a complete edition and the first full English translation of the extant sections (parts 2 8 9 and 12) of the manuscript of al-Sulami’s work making it fully available to modern readers for the first time. These are accompanied by an introductory study exploring the techniques that the author uses to motivate his audience the precedents that influenced his work and possible directions for future study of the text. In addition an appendix provides translations of jihad sermons by Ibn Nubata al-Fariqi (d. 985) a preacher from Asia Minor whose rhetorical style was highly influential in the development of al-Sulami’s work. | The Book of the Jihad of 'Ali ibn Tahir al-Sulami (d. 1106) Text Translation and Commentary

African Americans and Gentrification in Washington D.C. Race Class and Social Justice in the Nation’s Capital

African Americans and Gentrification in Washington D.C. Race Class and Social Justice in the Nation’s Capital

This book uses qualitative data to explore the experiences and ideas of African Americans confronting and constructing gentrification in Washington D. C. It contextualizes Black Washingtonians’ perspectives on belonging and attachment during a marked period of urban restructuring and demographic change in the Nation’s Capital and sheds light on the process of social hierarchies and standpoints unfolding over time. African Americans and Gentrification in Washington D. C. emerges as a portrait of a heterogeneous African American population wherein members define their identity and culture as a people informed by the impact of injustice on the urban landscape. It presents oral history and ethnographic data on current and former African American residents of D. C. and combines these findings with analyses from institutional statistical and scholarly reports on wealth inequality shortages in affordable housing and rates of unemployment. Prince contends that gentrification seizes upon and fosters uneven development vulnerability and alienation and contributes to classed and racialized tensions in affected communities in a book that will interest social scientists working in the fields of critical urban studies and urban ethnography. African Americans and Gentrification in Washington D. C. will also invigorate discussions of neoliberalism critical whiteness studies and race relations in the 21st Century. | African Americans and Gentrification in Washington D. C.
