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.

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

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

John Sheldrake’s long experience of teaching business and management to engineers has highlighted a gap in the knowledge of students and practitioners alike between their grasp of developments in science and technology and how these developments lead to the creation of successful 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 author examines the ways in which scientific endeavour is conditioned and even distorted by contextual issues such as finance and fashion. This demonstration of the synthesis of technology business and the market has relevance for students practitioners and policy makers in established and emerging markets. | Technology Business and the Market From R&D to Desirable Products

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.

Queercore Queer Punk Media Subculture

Queercore Queer Punk Media Subculture

Queercore is a queer and punk transmedia movement that was instigated in 1980s Toronto via the pages of the underground fanzine (zine) J. D. s. Authored by G. B. Jones and Bruce LaBruce J. D. s. declared civil war on the punk and gay and lesbian mainstreams consolidating a subculture of likeminded filmmakers zinesters musicans and performers situated in pointed opposition to the homophobia of mainline punk and the lifeless sexual politics and exclusionary tendencies of dominant gay and lesbian society. More than thirty years later queercore and its troublemaking productions remain under the radar but still culturally and politically resonant. This book brings renewed attention to queercore exploring the homology between queer theory/practice and punk theory/practice at the heart of queercore mediamaking. Through analysis of key queercore texts this book also elucidates the tropes central to queercore’s subcultural distinction: unashamed sexual representation confrontational politics and shocking embodiments including those related to size ability and gender variance. An exploration of a specific transmedia subculture grounded in archival research ethnographic interviews theoretical argumentation and close analysis ultimately Queercore proffers a provocative and tangible new answer to the long-debated question What does it mean to be queer? | Queercore Queer Punk Media Subculture
