Download or read book Visual Aggression written by Assaf Pinkus and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does a society seek out images of violence? What can the consumption of violent imagery teach us about the history of violence and the ways in which it has been represented and understood? Assaf Pinkus considers these questions within the context of what he calls galleries of violence, the torment imagery that flourished in German-speaking regions during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Exploring these images and the visceral bodily responses that they produced in their viewers, Pinkus argues that the new visual discourse on violence was a watershed in premodern conceptualizations of selfhood. Images of martyrdom in late medieval Germany reveal a strikingly brutal parade of passion: severed heads, split skulls, mutilated organs, extracted fingernails and teeth, and myriad other torments. Stripped from their devotional context and presented simply as brutal acts, these portrayals assailed viewers’ bodies and minds so violently that they amounted to what Pinkus describes as “visual aggressions.” Addressing contemporary discourses on violence and cruelty, the aesthetics of violence, and the eroticism of the tortured body, Pinkus ties these galleries of violence to larger cultural concerns about the ethics of violence and bodily integrity in the conceptualization of early modern personhood. Innovative and convincing, this study heralds a fundamental shift in the scholarly conversation about premodern violence, moving from a focus on the imitatio Christi and the liturgy of punishment to the notion of violence as a moral problem in an ethical system. Scholars of medieval and early modern art, history, and literature will welcome and engage with Pinkus’s research for years to come.
Download or read book Ship Dog written by Michael Danhieux and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2017-07-10 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hello my name is Teddy (a.k.a. Streak of Red) and I am a Ship Dog not a S K C (Sol Kennel Club) sanctioned breed yet but one day perhaps in the future. Technically I am a Texas Chihuahua but I was born in the gravity section of a space station in orbit of the planet Earth which makes me (in principle) a Ship Dog. My master’s name is Jim Roberts the owner/operator of the earth spaceship Wanderlust, basically a very long haul trucker. He delivers cargo to various settlements and colonies in human space. We have been together for almost 3 years now, for the most part he is a very good master. Sometimes is he a bit slow on the uptake but you have to make considerations for their species. It’s a known fact that they would still be banging on rocks in caves if we hadn’t intervened, cleaning up their leftovers which help prevent diseases from spreading, guarding and protecting them and saying to the poor dense things (come on master let’s go for a walk and see what’s out there). It’s also a known fact that my kind were the first ones in space. Now they’re out here too, with a vengeance. Going here and there and everywhere and of course taking us dogs along with them, as pets and companions, yeah right! On this particular trip, my master and I are taking vital machine parts to the new settlement on the metal rich world of Green Nevada. A dismal and smelly place which makes my body feel too heavy when were on planet. But Jimmy boy has a contract to fulfill and so I must endure as my species has always done. This trip to Green Nevada we are taking a different route than the two previous times we had been there. Only engaging the interdimensional drive engine, three times instead of four. The route is shorter but it’s also a new and unexplored area of the cosmos. What we blunder into when the dimensional drive is turned off and we reenter normal space is both frightening and awe inspiring to my master and will rock humanity to its very core, it’s a good thing I’m along to help keep him grounded, otherwise who knows what would’ve happened...
Book Synopsis The Cambodian Wars by : Kenneth Conboy
Download or read book The Cambodian Wars written by Kenneth Conboy and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2013-06-25 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most Americans, Cambodia was a sideshow to the war in Vietnam, but by the time of the Vietnam invasion of Democratic Kampuchea in 1978 and the subsequent war, it had finally moved to center stage. Kenneth Conboy chronicles the violence that plagued Cambodia from World War II until the end of the twentieth century and peels back the layers of secrecy that surrounded the CIA's covert assistance to anticommunist forces in Cambodia during that span. Conboy's path-breaking study provides the first complete assessment of CIA ops in two key periods-during the Khmer Republic's existence (1970-1975), in support of American military action in Vietnam, and during the Reagan and first Bush presidencies (1981-1991), when the CIA challenged Soviet expansion by supporting exiled royalists, Republicans, and even former Communists trying to expel the Vietnamese from their country. Through interviews with dozens of CIA Cambodia veterans-as well as special forces officers from Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Australia-he sheds new light on the contributions made by foreign intelligence services. Through information gleaned from the U.S. Defense Attache's Office in Phnom Penh, he offers a detailed look at the development of the Khmer Rouge military structure, while his use of Vietnamese-language histories released by the People's Army of Vietnam helps more fully illuminate the PAVN's participation in the Cambodian wars. More than a simple expos of CIA activities, however, The Cambodian Wars is also an authoritative history of that country's struggles over half a century. Conboy examines Cambodia as kingdom, colony, republic, revolutionary state, and Vietnamese satellite, and offers fresh insight into the actions of key players-Norodom Sihanouk, Lon Nol, Sisowath Sirik Matak, Son Ngoc Thanh, and others-that will enlighten even those who think they know that country's history. Three decades in the making, The Cambodian Wars tells a little known chapter in the Cold War in which non-communists pulled off a surprising victory. Featuring dozens of photos covering events from 1970 to the trial of Pol Pot in 1997, it is must reading for anyone interested in contemporary Southeast Asian history, CIA covert operations, and the Vietnam War.

Book Synopsis Facing Trauma in Contemporary American Literary Discourse by : Laura Virginia Castor
Download or read book Facing Trauma in Contemporary American Literary Discourse written by Laura Virginia Castor and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trauma has always been part of the American collective experience, but only since September 11, 2001 has it been acknowledged on a widespread scale. Most people will experience some form of trauma during their lifetime, but in contemporary American culture, it is often understood as a problem to be blamed on someone, fought, or repressed entirely. Despite burgeoning trauma studies, popular responses to trauma – from the media to politics – produce ever more aggression and fear. This book responds to this growing awareness through literary analyses of texts by Louise Erdrich, Siri Hustvedt, Melanie Thernstrom, Nicole Krauss, Joy Harjo, Linda Hogan, Jhumpa Lahiri, and Toni Morrison. Considered separately, each chapter provides a lens into a historically-situated trauma and the process of renegotiating it. Read together, they function as voices in an ongoing conversation that affirms the power of narrative. A good story can become a space for curiosity in the face of trauma and uncertainty. A story opens imaginative possibilities for asking, “in what ways can readers bring more awareness to the benefits of seeing our planetary interdependence in the midst of global polarization?” The readings of novels, autobiographical texts, and poems here suggest how this question is among the most valuable we can ask in the early 21st century.

This book was released on 2014-09-28 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the first art-historical attempt to theorize the idiosyncratic character of German Gothic sculpture and trace the high and late medieval notions of the ‘living statue’ and the simulacrum in religious, lay and travel literature.

They have worked with many high-profile organisations, have held senior line roles in major corporations and understand the needs of both decision makers and ordinary people.
