        Anarchism and eugenics

        An unlikely convergence, 1890-1940

        by Richard Cleminson

        At the heart of this book is what would appear to be a striking and fundamental paradox: the espousal of a 'scientific' doctrine that sought to eliminate 'dysgenics' and champion the 'fit' as a means of 'race' survival by a political and social movement that ostensibly believed in the destruction of the state and the removal of all hierarchical relationships. What explains this reception of eugenics by anarchism? How was eugenics mobilised by anarchists as part of their struggle against capitalism and the state? What were the consequences of this overlap for both anarchism and eugenics as transnational movements?

        Stilübungen

        by Raymond Queneau, Ludwig Harig, Eugen Helmlé, Ludwig Harig

        Für diese im übrigen unveränderte Neuausgabe des artistischen Bestsellers hat Ludwig Harig ein Nachwort Auf dem pataphysischen Hochseil – Zur Übersetzung der ›Stilübungen‹ von Raymond Queneau geschrieben: »Im Jahr 1947 erschien Raymond Queneaus Exercices de Style bei Gallimard in Paris. Die Geschichte ihrer Übersetzung ins Deutsche, eng verknüpft mit dem experimentellen Aufbruch der Nachkriegspoesie, reicht in die fünfziger Jahre zurück. Von Kindheit an mehr spielals lernbesessen, neugierig auf waghalsige Versuche, mißtrauisch gegenüber bewährten Kunstwerken, war ich lüstern nach Neuem … Elisabeth Walther ermutigte mich mit einem Zitat von Francis Ponge: ›Nur die Literatur erlaubt, das große Spiel zu spielen: die Welt neu zu machen‹ –, und darauf hatte ich es mit meinem Freund Eugen Helmlé abgesehen. Risikofreudig, ja todesmutig, wie sich später einige Kritiker ausdrückten, machten wir uns an die Arbeit. Die Übersetzung der Exercices de Style war ein Drahtseilakt: Raymond Queneau turnte ihn uns vor, wie es einst nur Till Eulenspiegel zustande gebracht hat …«

        Mary Kelly

        Projects, 1973–2010

        by Edited by Dominique Heyes-Moore

        Mary Kelly, we are told, was not a feminist artist, but a feminist who made art. Designed to accompany a major retrospective at the Whitworth Art Gallery, this book contains essays and interviews which show the implications of that distinction and also the legacy of feminists and feminism in relation to art. Challenging and beautiful, Kelly's artworks address questions of sexuality, identity and historical memory in the form of large-scale narrative installations. The works are agilely discussed in contributions by some of the luminary feminist art scholars of our time, including Janet Wolff, Laura Mulvey, Carol Mavor and Amelia Jones, making this collection an essential new text in the discourse on art, feminism, psychoanalysis and representation.

        Eradicating deafness?

        Genetics, pathology, and diversity in twentieth-century America

        by Marion Andrea Schmidt

        Is deafness a disability to be prevented or the uniting trait of a cultural community to be preserved? Combining the history of eugenics and genetics with deaf and disability history, this book traces how American heredity researchers moved from trying to eradicate deafness to embracing it as a valuable cultural diversity. It looks at how deafness came to be seen as a hereditary phenomenon at all, how eugenics became part of progressive reform at schools for the deaf, and how, from the 1950s on, more sociocultural approaches to disability and minority led to new cooperative projects between professionals and local signing deaf communities. Analysing the transformative effects of exchange between researchers and objects of research, this book offers new insight to changing ideas about medical ethics, reproductive rights, the meaning of scientific progress and cultural diversity.
