        Languages of racism and resistance in Neapolitan street markets

        by Antonia Lucia Dawes

        This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. Race talk is about language use as an anti-racist practice in multicultural city spaces. The book contends that attention to talk reveals the relations of domination and subordination in heterogeneous, ethnically diverse and multilingual contexts, while also helping us to understand how transcultural solidarity might be expressed. Drawing on original ethnographic research conducted on licensed and unlicensed market stalls in in heterogeneous, ethnically diverse and multilingual contexts, this book examines the centrality of multilingual talk to everyday struggles about difference, positionality and entitlement. In these street markets, Neapolitan street vendors work alongside documented and undocumented migrants from Bangladesh, China, Guinea Conakry, Mali, Nigeria and Senegal as part of an ambivalent, cooperative and unequal quest to survive and prosper. As austerity, anti-immigration politics and urban regeneration projects encroached upon the possibilities of street vending, talk across linguistic, cultural, national and religious boundaries underpinned the collective action of street vendors struggling to keep their markets open. The edginess of their multilingual organisation offered useful insights into the kinds of imaginaries that will be needed to overcome the politics of borders, nationalism and radical incommunicability.

        Grandma Doesn't Talk

        China Story Picture Books

        by Lyu Lina

        China Story Picture Books is the first set of children's picture books launched by the Bingxin Award Committee. This set of books covers the works of seven Bingxin Award-winning writers of different ages including children's literature masters and promising young writers. The illustrations are full of traditional Chinese cultural elements such as dragon lantern dance, paper cutting, oil paper umbrella, and bamboo. Powerful painters at home and abroad are invited to do illustrations, which brings interesting fusion and collision of Chinese and foreign cultures to the books. In addition to the original illustrations, the stories are more touching. Every child can harvest the courage and wisdom for growing up from these stories.   The series consists of 7 picture books: The Dragon Lantern, The Path of Golden Flowers, The Child in Three-Story Attic, The School Day Gifts, The Secret of Crossing, The Slope of Sisters.   Grandma Doesn't Talk tells the story of "little Heidi" in China. Mai Xiaoduo's grandmother is wordless but has many skills. She can cut window flowers for the neighbors, knit sweaters, make medicine for Heidi's ailing grandfather, and take Mai Xiaoduo to the mountain to collect medicine and watch the sunset. Although grandma doesn't talk too much, her scissors, needles and frying pans can talk. In the process of accompanying her grandmother, Mai Xiaoduo heard the sound of life, history, and flowers, trees and the wind in nature.

        Freedom of speech, 1500–1850

        by Robert Ingram, Jason Peacey, Alex W. Barber

        This collection brings together historians, political theorists and literary scholars to provide historical perspectives on the modern debate over freedom of speech, particularly the question of whether limitations might be necessary given religious pluralism and concerns about hate speech. It integrates religion into the history of free speech and rethinks what is sometimes regarded as a coherent tradition of more or less absolutist justifications for free expression. Contributors examine the aims and effectiveness of government policies, the sometimes contingent ways in which freedom of speech became a reality and a wide range of canonical and non-canonical texts in which contemporaries outlined their ideas and ideals. Overall, the book argues that while the period from 1500 to 1850 witnessed considerable change in terms of both ideas and practices, these were more or less distinct from those that characterise modern debates.

        by Shao Dazhen

These books, articles and translated works, mainly written in the more than 30 years since the reform and opening up, not only help Chinese readers understand the history and current situation of Western art, but also deeply reflect and analyze many issues in the development of Chinese and Western art since the 20th century, with clear and rational personal judgment. The content, artistic views, analytical methods, critical perspectives and even terminology introduced in the book had a wide influence in the art circle and promoted the modernization process of Chinese art.Shao Dazhen has always been concerned about the development of Western sculpture and Chinese modern sculpture, and believes that to improve the overall level of Chinese contemporary sculpture, the main thing is to improve the artistic accomplishment of sculptors and the public's understanding and understanding of sculpture.Ten Lectures on Modern Western Sculpture is a collection of articles on sculpture written by Shao Dazhen. Mr. Shao Dazhen believes that since the popularity of conceptual art in the 1970s, the independent "sculpture art" in the West is in danger of being dissolved. But the traditional forms of sculpture will still have the value of existence, as long as they reflect modern life, modern thoughts, feelings and interests, will have permanent vitality.

        Screening the Paris suburbs

        From the silent era to the 1990s

        by Philippe Met, Annie Fourcaut, Roland-François Lack, Jean-Louis Pautrot, Keith Reader, Margaret Flinn, Eric Bullot, Tristan Jean, Malcolm Turvey, Elisabeth Cardonne-Arlyck, Térésa Faucon, Philippe Met, Camille Canteux, Derek Schilling, Guillaume Soulez, David Vasse, Derek Schilling

        Decades before the emergence of a French self-styled 'hood' film around 1995, French filmmakers looked beyond the gates of the capital for inspiration and content. In the Paris suburbs they found an inexhaustible reservoir of forms, landscapes and social types in which to anchor their fictions, from bourgeois villas and bucolic riverside cafés to post-war housing estates and postmodern new towns. For the first time in English, contributors to this volume address key aspects of this long film history, marked by such towering figures as Jean Renoir, Jacques Tati and Jean-Luc Godard. Idyllic or menacing, expansive or claustrophobic, the suburb served divergent aesthetic and ideological programmes across the better part of a century. Themes central to French cultural modernity - class conflict, leisure, boredom and anti-authoritarianism - cut across the fifteen chapters.

        Cao Wenxuan Teaches You How to Write

        by Cao Wenxuan

        “Cao Wenxuan Teaches You How to Write” is a new work by Cao Wenxuan, winner of the "International Andersen Award", a young reader's promoter, and an editor of Chinese textbooks. The book is divided into three parts, systematically showing his attitude towards literature, writing, and reading. Through lectures in schools, Cao Wenxuan vividly explained how to write a good composition, and how to explode the accumulated knowledge of reading and flow in the nib. His own insistence on writing is also due to the endless love for children , the responsibility to children, and the endless expectations of children.
