Book Synopsis A Global Doll's House by : Julie Holledge
Download or read book A Global Doll's House written by Julie Holledge and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses a deceptively simple question: what accounts for the global success of A Doll’s House, Henrik Ibsen’s most popular play? Using maps, networks, and images to explore the world history of the play’s production, this question is considered from two angles: cultural transmission and adaptation. Analysing the play’s transmission reveals the social, economic, and political forces that have secured its place in the canon of world drama; a comparative study of the play’s 135-year production history across five continents offers new insights into theatrical adaptation. Key areas of research include the global tours of nineteenth-century actress-managers, Norway’s soft diplomacy in promoting gender equality, representations of the female performing body, and the sexual vectors of social change in theatre.
Book Synopsis Thousands of Noras by : Sherry Engle
Download or read book Thousands of Noras written by Sherry Engle and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-10-21 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of Noras: Short Plays by Women, 1875-1920 provides an international collection of dramatic works written by women that draw attention to the power and range of voices of several generations of women writers. Sketches, monologues, duologues and plays from the United States, England, Ireland, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada are represented. It includes works by playwrights considered marginal, as well as lesser-known works by established writers such as Elizabeth Baker, Catherine Amy Dawson-Scott, Ruth Draper, Miles Franklin, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Amy Levy, Katherine Mansfield, and Netta Syrett. Divided into three thematic sections, this volume includes plays that focus on womens aspiration for higher education, their need for paid employment, and the disillusionment often experienced in the working world. It offers pieces that address social activismcampaigns for the vote, for national independence in Ireland, for temperance, and for workers rights. And it presents lighter fare where writers satirize womens clubs, contemporary fads, and even theatre-going and playwriting.

Book Synopsis The History of Water Management in the Iberian Peninsula by : Ana Duarte Rodrigues
Download or read book The History of Water Management in the Iberian Peninsula written by Ana Duarte Rodrigues and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume approaches the history of water in the Iberian Peninsula in a novel way, by linking it to the ongoing international debate on water crisis and solutions to overcome the lack of water in the Mediterranean. What water devices were found? What were the models for these devices? How were they distributed in the villas and monastic enclosures? What impact did hydraulic theoretical knowledge have on these water systems, and how could these systems impact on hydraulic technology? Guided by these questions, this book covers the history of water in the most significant cities, the role of water in landscape transformation, the irrigation systems and water devices in gardens and villas, and, lastly, the theoretical and educational background on water management and hydraulics in the Iberian Peninsula between the sixteenth and the nineteenth centuries. Historiography on water management in the territory that is today Spain has highlighted the region’s role as a mediator between the Islamic masters of water and the Christian world. The history of water in Portugal is less known, and it has been taken for granted that is similar to its neighbour. This book compares two countries that have the same historical roots and, therefore, many similar stories, but at the same time, offers insights into particular aspects of each country. It is recommended for scholars and researchers interested in any field of history of the early modern period and of the nineteenth century, as well as general readers interested in studies on the Iberian Peninsula, since it was the role model for many settlements in South America, Asia and Africa.

Book Synopsis Personality, Inc. by : Jill Stephenson
Download or read book Personality, Inc. written by Jill Stephenson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-10-20 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " At Personality, Inc., the world is divided into five distinct Personalities. And the corporation is out to make you one of them! In the tradition of Ray Bradbury and George Orwell, Jill Stephenson delivers a vision of a world in which surface appearances become the totality of every person who walks through the doors of Personality, Inc. As Nora Pherson sets out to recreate the world in her own image of a well-run, super-organized society, her top instructor, Martin Goldsmith, begins to second-guess the quest. Under normal circumstances, Martins soul-searching would not be earth-shattering. In the realm of the corporation, however, his doubts threaten to destroy an empire. Funny, sharp and frighteningly familiar, Personality, Inc. is a page-turning portrait of a country lost in its appetites and pursuing the trivial with reckless abandon.

Book Synopsis The Making of Modern Subjects by : Sung Un Gang
Download or read book The Making of Modern Subjects written by Sung Un Gang and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2024-06-30 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 20th century, Korean women began to manifest themselves in the public sphere. Sung Un Gang explores how the women's gaze was reimagined in public discourse as they attended plays and movies, delving into the complex negotiation process surrounding women's public presence. In this first extensive study of Korean female spectators in the colonial era, he analyzes newspapers, magazines, fictions, and images, arguing that public discourse aimed to mold them into a male-driven and top-down modernization project. Through a meticulous examination of historical sources, this study reconceptualizes colonial Korean female spectators as diverse, active agents with their own politics who played a crucial role in shaping colonial publicness.
Book Synopsis Photo-textualities by : Marsha Bryant
Download or read book Photo-textualities written by Marsha Bryant and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This anthology investigates books that juxtapose photographs and written language (photo-texts), considering a variety of examples from America, Britain, Canada, and France. Ranging from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Marble Faun to Michael Ondaatje's postmodern novel Coming Through Slaughter and Edward Said's postdocumentary After the Last Sky, the contributors' analyses address photo-textuality's implications for representation and its cultural contexts. A truly interdisciplinary collection, Photo-Textualities features contributors who work in literary studies (English, romance languages), as well as contributors who work in media studies (film, graphic arts)." "Photo-Textualities invigorates critical inquiry with its range of literary and photographic genres, including photo-texts that elude genre classification. Besides documentary and biography, nonfiction literary genres include autobiography and travelogue. The range of photographic genres extends to landscapes, portraiture, documentary, tourist snapshots, and media images, as well as to the standard photo-textual forms of published album and photo-essay."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
