Download or read book At the Speed of Light There is Only Illumination written by John Moss and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the Speed of Light There is Only Illumination collects a dozen re-evaluative essays on Marshall McLuhan and his critical and theoretical legacy; from intellectual adventurer creating a complex architecture of ideas to cultural icon standing in line in Woody Allen’s Annie Hall. Given McLuhan’s prominent status in many academic disciplines, the contributors reflect a multi-disciplinary background. John Moss and Linda Morra chose the essays from a gathering of McLuhan’s academic devotees. The contribution – from “McLuhan as Medium” and “McLuhan in Space” to “What McLuhan Got Wrong” and “Trouble in the Global Village” – to provide a kaleidoscope of new views. As Moss writes of the collected essays: “Some are big and some are small, some exegetic and some confessional, some stand as major statements and others are sidelong glances; some resonate with the concerns of public discourse and others are private or privileged or impious and provocative. Each consists of many parts, each a design on its own. They speak to each other...they may have come together as one version of what happened.”

Book Synopsis Counterblasting Canada by : Gregory Betts
Download or read book Counterblasting Canada written by Gregory Betts and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2016-07-07 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1914, Wyndham Lewis and Ezra Pound—the founders of vorticism—undertook an unprecedented analysis of the present, its technologies, communication, politics, and architecture. The essays in Counterblasting Canada trace the influence of vorticism on Marshall McLuhan and Canadian Modernism. Building on the initial accomplishment of the magazine Blast, McLuhan’s subsequent Counterblast, and the network of artistic and intellectual relationships that flourished in Canadian vorticism, the contributors offer groundbreaking examinations of postwar Canadian literary culture, particularly the legacies of Sheila and Wilfred Watson. Intended primarily for scholars of literature and communications, Counterblasting Canada explores a crucial and long-overlooked strand in Canadian cultural and literary history. Contributors: Gregory Betts, Adam Hammond, Paul Hjartarson, Dean Irvine, Elena Lamberti, Philip Monk, Linda M. Morra, Kristine Smitka, Leon Surette, Paul Tiessen, Adam Welch, Darren Wershler.

Book Synopsis C the Speed of Light by : Harry H. Mark
Download or read book C the Speed of Light written by Harry H. Mark and published by . This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Later this year, the Planetary Society is planning to launch LightSail-1, a sail that will travel farther and farther into space propelled by the sun's steady stream of photon particles. Other such flights are projected for the next few years. This renewed interest in light and its momentum call for a fresh look into the speed of light c which generates this energy. This speed has been, for over a century, a cardinal pillar supporting the present edifice of theoretical physics, but that light had any speed at all was discovered only in the seventeenth century, and confirmed in the eighteenth, by means of measurements over vast astronomical distances. These methods seem to have proven that the speed of light varied with the speed of the observer. Nonetheless, another experiment late in the nineteenth century, was interpreted as showing that the speed of light was independent of its observer or its source it was a universal constant. This thesis is a meticulous examination in historical context of the evidential data and theories which paved the road to the idea that the speed of light was a universal constant, a seemingly universal belief. The need for the endeavor arose secondarily to the main task of exploring fundamental physical and geometrical phenomena of light detailed in the previous treatises on Optokinetics.
