Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the function and status of the visual and verbal image as it relates to social, political, and ideological issues. The authors first articulate some of the lost connections between image and ideology, then locate their argument within the modernist/postmodernist debates.

Book Synopsis The Recurrent Green Universe of John Fowles by : Thomas M. Wilson
Download or read book The Recurrent Green Universe of John Fowles written by Thomas M. Wilson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecocriticism is the emerging academic field which explores nature writing and ecological themes in all literature. Thomas M. Wilson’s book is the first to consider the work of one of the most critically acclaimed and generally popular post-war English writers from an ecocritical perspective. Fowles is best known as a novelist and author of such works as The Magus, The French Lieutenant’s Woman and Daniel Martin. Going beyond the fiction, this book also examines the many profound reflections on the natural world found in his essays, poems and his recently published Journals. John Fowles’ writings have cast light on the ways we perceive the natural world, from curious scientific observer to Wordsworthian lover of natural places, as well as many other important and, at this time, crucial themes. This volume will be of interest to critics and readers of contemporary fiction, but most of all, to anyone curious about their place in the recurrent green universe that is our earth.

As the first publication of the German John Fowles Society, founded in 2015, the book brings together a collector, a translator and a handful of scholars who pay tribute to one of the most important voices in English fiction after World War II. Their contributions, which address The Magus, The French Lieutenant's Woman, The Ebony Tower, Daniel Martin and the unpublished Tesserae, bear testimony to Fowles's lasting fascination. Mehr als ein Jahrzehnt nach seinem Tod im Jahr 2005 erfährt die Erinnerung an John Fowles, einen der wenigen frühen englischen Vertreter einer postmodernistischen Poetik, durch diese Aufsatzsammlung neue Impulse. Die Beiträge in diesem Band, der ersten Veröffentlichung der 2015 gegründeten Deutschen John-Fowles-Gesellschaft, behandeln einige seiner wichtigsten Texte ( Der Magus, Die Geliebte des französischen Leutnants, Der Ebenholzturm, Daniel Martin sowie die unveröffentlichten Mosaiksteine) aus der Perspektive eines Sammlers, eines Übersetzers und einer Handvoll Literaturwissenschaftler und zollen der andauernden Faszination seiner Texte Tribut.

Download or read book The Time Dimension written by T K. Das and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1990-04-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive bibliography of temporal scholarship-research on the subject of time and the phenomenon of time itself. As the author notes in his introduction, the nature of research insights on the subject of time is difficult to comprehend within the confines of any specific discipline since relevant materials are scattered throughout the literature in numerous scholarly fields. By bringing together the most significant published works in a wide variety of disciplines, this unique compendium enables scholars and researchers to look beyond their own particular area of expertise when selecting appropriate resource materials. Throughout, the focus is on the time dimension itself as a problematic or researchable phenomenon rather than on narrow topics such as time management, time series analysis, or forecasting. Organized by discipline, the work begins with an initial chapter that lists general works on the time dimension. Nineteen chapters then list works in particular disciplines ranging from anthropology and culture to biology, economics, futures studies, history, linguistics, management studies, psychology, and more. The final chapter lists miscellaneous entries which could not be categorized into any of the specific disciplinary headings. Within each chapter, entries are arranged alphabetically by author or editor. Nearly all sources are from scholarly journals and books.

Book Synopsis Time, Mind, and Behavior by : John A. Michon
Download or read book Time, Mind, and Behavior written by John A. Michon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of the International Workshop on Time, Mind, and Behavior, which was held at the University of Groningen in September 1984. The aim of the workshop was to produce an up to date review of the state of the art in the field of time psychology. The rapid development of a cognitive outlook in experimental psychology has, among other things, un derlined the need for a reconsideration of time experience, the coding and representation of temporal information, and the timing of complex re sponses. Since the publication of Paul Fraisse's classical Psychologie du Temps in 1957, time psychology has slowly but steadily drawn an in creasing amount of attention, to a point where it now seems to be incorpo rated into the mainstream of research. At the same time a noticeable ten dency for a renewed general interest in time can also be traced in several other disciplines. These two observations supported our belief that it was time for a review of the sort we had in mind. At the close of 1983 we completed a project supported by the Dutch Organization for the Advancement of Pure Research in which we had stud ied the coding and retrieval of temporal information. This provided us with a plausible pretense for organizing a workshop. Around Christmas time 1983 we were able to mail a preliminary invitation to a number of our colleagues whom we knew to be currently active in the field.
