        Schwarz Blau Blut

        Ein Cop über Rassismus und Polizeigewalt in den USA

        by Matthew Horace

        28 Jahre lang war er als schwarzer Polizist auf den Straßen der USA im Einsatz. Er kennt sie alle: die Helden, die Mörder, die Rassisten, die Dealer, die korrupten Kollegen und die Opfer. Und er kennt die Zusammenhänge. In Schwarz Blau Blut erzählt Matthew Horace von einem System, das außer Kontrolle geraten ist – actionreich und informativ. Ein Mann auf der Flucht, der mit acht Schüssen in den Rücken niedergestreckt wird, ein Obdachloser, den ein Streifenwagen erfasst, brennende Geschäfte in Ferguson, I can´t breathe, I can´t breathe … Solche Bilder aus den USA gehen mit erschreckender Regelmäßigkeit um die Welt, gefolgt von schockiertem Entsetzen. Doch die richtige Frage stellt im Anschluss niemand: Was verursacht die Gewalt? Schwarz Blau Blut gibt darauf eine Antwort. Ein heftiges Buch von der Front, von einem, der beide Seiten kennt. Für alle, die verstehen wollen, warum so viele schwarze Menschen unschuldig sterben.

        Intentionalität

        Eine Abhandlung zur Philosophie des Geistes

        by Harvey P. Gavagai, John R. Searle

        Nach seinen sprachphilosophischen Arbeiten ('Sprechakte', stw 458; 'Ausdruck und Bedeutung', stw 349) hat John R. Searle mit 'Intentionalität' eine Untersuchung zu einem Kernstück der Philosophie des Geistes vorgelegt, die in einem engen thematischen Zusammenhang mit den früheren Arbeiten steht. Intentionalität ist nach Searles Auffassung die Basis sprachlicher Bedeutung. In seiner Theorie der Intentionalität geht es um die begrifflichen Eigenschaften intentionaler Zustände (auf die Frage nach ihrem ontologischen Status geht er ausführlicher ein in 'Geist, Hirn und Wissenschaft', stw 591). Zwei Aspekte stehen dabei im Vordergrund der Untersuchung: die Logik der Repräsentation und der Kausalität intentionaler Zustände. Doch Searle entwickelt in dieser Arbeit nicht nur eine Theorie der Intentionalität und des Zusammenhangs zwischen sprachlichem und geistigem Inhalt. In einem vornehmlich kritischen Teil setzt er sich ausführlich mit konkurrierenden Auffassungen aus dem Bereich der analytischen Philosophie auseinander, insbesondere mit derzeit sehr einflußreichen 'nicht-deskriptivistischen' Theorien des Bezugs, wie sie von S. Kripke, H. Putnam, K. Donnellan, T. Burge und D. Kaplan vertreten und angeregt wurden.

        The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914

        The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914

        by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, Rob David

        The Arctic region has been the subject of much popular writing. This book considers nineteenth-century representations of the Arctic, and draws upon an extensive range of evidence that will allow the 'widest connections' to emerge from a 'cross-disciplinary analysis' using different methodologies and subject matter. It positions the Arctic alongside more thoroughly investigated theatres of Victorian enterprise. In the nineteenth century, most images were in the form of paintings, travel narratives, lectures given by the explorers themselves and photographs. The book explores key themes in Arctic images which impacted on subsequent representations through text, painting and photography. For much of the nineteenth century, national and regional geographical societies promoted exploration, and rewarded heroic endeavor. The book discusses images of the Arctic which originated in the activities of the geographical societies. The Times provided very low-key reporting of Arctic expeditions, as evidenced by its coverage of the missions of Sir John Franklin and James Clark Ross. However, the illustrated weekly became one of the main sources of popular representations of the Arctic. The book looks at the exhibitions of Arctic peoples, Arctic exploration and Arctic fauna in Britain. Late nineteenth-century exhibitions which featured the Arctic were essentially nostalgic in tone. The Golliwogg's Polar Adventures, published in 1900, drew on adult representations of the Arctic and will have confirmed and reinforced children's perceptions of the region. Text books, board games and novels helped to keep the subject alive among the young.

        4 saints in 3 acts

        A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s

        by Patricia Allmer, John Sears

        Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

        Savage worlds

        German encounters abroad, 1798–1914

        by Matthew Fitzpatrick, Peter Monteath

        With an eye to recovering the experiences of those in frontier zones of contact, Savage Worlds maps a wide range of different encounters between Germans and non-European indigenous peoples in the age of high imperialism. Examining outbreaks of radical violence as well as instances of mutual co-operation, it examines the differing goals and experiences of German explorers, settlers, travellers, merchants, and academics, and how the variety of projects they undertook shaped their relationship with the indigenous peoples they encountered. Examining the multifaceted nature of German interactions with indigenous populations, this volume offers historians and anthropologists clear evidence of the complexity of the colonial frontier and frontier zone encounters. It poses the question of how far Germans were able to overcome their initial belief that, in leaving Europe, they were entering 'savage worlds'.

        Joss Whedon

        by Matthew Pateman

        This book assesses Joss Whedon's contribution to US television and popular culture. Examining everything from his earliest work to his most recent tweets and activist videos, it explores his complex and contradictory roles as both cult outsider and blockbuster filmmaker. Crucially, the book insists on the wider industrial, technological, political and economic contexts that have both influenced and been influenced by Whedon, rejecting the notion of Whedon as isolated television auteur. Using key source material, with exclusive access to drafts of many of the episodes across Whedon's career, as well as unique correspondence with Whedon collaborator Jane Espenson, this book offers unparalleled access to the creative process that helped produce the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Dollhouse and Firefly. Energetic, engaging and informed by detailed scholarship and theoretical rigour, the book is not just an essential addition to the study of Whedon, but a timely and important re-invigoration of television studies in general.

        Geist und Welt

        by John McDowell, Thomas Blume, Holm Bräuer, Gregory Klass, John McDowell

        Die Kluft zwischen Geist und Welt ist in der Philosophie des 20. Jahrhunderts als Kluft zwischen dem »reibungslosen Rotieren der Begriffe im luftleeren Raum« - ohne Anbindung an die Welt - und dem »Mythos des Gegebenen« - der totalen Abhängigkeit der Begriffe von der Welt - reformuliert worden. John McDowell gelingt in seinem Buch eine Verbindung beider Positionen. Mit Kant erweist er Erfahrungen als immer schon begrifflich strukturiert, mit Aristoteles entfaltet er einen Begriff der »zweiten Natur«, der Geist und Welt überbrücken kann.

        Richard Brome

        Place and politics on the Caroline stage

        by Matthew Steggle, Paul Edmondson, Martin White

        Richard Brome was the leading comic playwright of 1630s London. Starting his career as a manservant to Ben Jonson, he wrote a string of highly successful comedies which were influential in British theatre long after Brome's own playwriting career was cut short by the closure of the theatres in 1642. This book offers the first full-length chronological account of Brome's life and works, drawing on a wide range of recently rediscovered manuscript sources. It traces the early hostility to Brome from those who wrote him off as a mere servant; his continuing struggles with plague closures, contract disputes and theatrical takeover bids; and his literary relationships with Jonson, Shakespeare and others. Each of the surviving plays is discussed in relation to its social and political context, and its sense of place. A final chapter reviews Brome's enduring stageworthiness into the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and the most recent Brome revivals. ;

        Philosophie der wirklichen Welt

        by John R. Searle, Harvey P. Gavagai, John R. Searle

        John R. Searle gehört zu den wirkmächtigsten Philosophen der Gegenwart. Er hat bahnbrechende Untersuchungen über Sprechakte veröffentlicht, eine eigene Konzeption von Intentionalität vorgelegt und das Funktionieren gesellschaftlicher Realität erklärt. Er hat die Diskussion um künstliche Intelligenz mit seinem Bild des »chinesischen Zimmers« bereichert und damit allen Vergleichen des menschlichen Geistes mit dem Computer ein vieldiskutiertes Argument beschert. Hier zieht Searle die Summe aus diesen Themen. Durch die leichtverständliche Darstellung und Searles Fähigkeit, komplexe Probleme in wenigen Sätzen zu skizzieren und zu lösen, eignet sich das Buch nicht nur als Einführung in Searles Denken, sondern auch als Einführung in die Gegenwartsphilosophie überhaupt.

        Exhibiting the Empire

        Cultures of display and the British Empire

        by John McAleer, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, John Mackenzie

        Exhibiting the empire considers how a whole range of cultural products - from paintings, prints, photographs, panoramas and 'popular' texts to ephemera, newspapers and the press, theatre and music, exhibitions, institutions and architecture - were used to record, celebrate and question the development of the British Empire. It represents a significant and original contribution to our understanding of the relationship between culture and empire. Written by leading scholars from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, individual chapters bring fresh perspectives to the interpretation of media, material culture and display, and their interaction with history. Taken together, this collection suggests that the history of empire needs to be, in part at least, a history of display and of reception. This book will be essential reading for scholars and students interested in British history, the history of empire, art history and the history of museums and collecting. ;
