Protecting Whiteness: Whitelash and the Rejection of Racial Equality by Cameron D. Lippard, J. Scott Carter English | Dec 15, 2020 | ISBN: 0295747986, 0295747994 | 296 pages | PDF | 3 MB The standoff at Cliven Bundy's ranch, the rise of white identity activists on college campuses, and the viral growth of white nationalist videos on YouTube vividly illustrate the resurgence of white supremacy and overt racism in the United States. White resistance to racial equality can be subtle as well―like art museums that enforce their boundaries as elite white spaces, "right on crime" policies that impose new modes of surveillance and punishment for people of color, and environmental groups whose work reinforces settler colonial norms.  Postcolonial Borges: Argument and Artistry by Robin Fiddian English | October 10, 2017 | ISBN: 0198794711 | True EPUB | 224 pages | 0.4 MB Postcolonial Borges is the first systematic account of geo-political and postcolonial themes in a range of writings by Borges, from the poetry and essays of the 1920s, through the prose and poetry of the middle years (the 40s, 50s, and 60s), to the stories of El informe de Brodie and the poems of La cifra and other later collections. Robin Fiddian analyses the development of a postcolonial sensibility in works such as 'Mythical Founding of Buenos Aires', 'Tlon, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius', 'Theme of the Traitor and the Hero', and 'Brodie's Report'. He examines Borges's treatment of national and regional identity, and of East-West relations, in several essays and poems, contained, for example, in Other Inquisitions and Seven Nights. The theoretical concepts of 'coloniality' and 'Occidentalism' shed new light on several works by Borges, who acquires a sharper political profile than previously acknowledged. Fiddian pays special attention to Oriental subjects in Borges's works of the 70s and 80s, where their treatment is bound up with a critique of Occidental values and assumptions.  Piero della Francesca: Artist and Man by James R. Banker English | April 15, 2014 | ISBN: 0199609314 | True EPUB | 304 pages | 7.1 MB Largely neglected for the four centuries after his death, the fifteenth century Italian artist Piero della Francesca is now seen to embody the fullest expression of the Renaissance perspective painter, raising him to an artistic stature comparable with that of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.  Perspectives on Localization By Keiran J. Dunne 2006 | 362 Pages | ISBN: 9027231893 | PDF | 4 MB Over the past two decades, international trade agreements such as GATT and NAFTA have lowered international trade barriers. At the same time, the information revolution has fueled profound shifts in the ways companies conduct business and communicate with their customers, and worldwide acceptance of the ISO 9000 standard has established the notion that quality must be defined in terms of customer satisfaction. Falling trade barriers and rising quality standards have made linguistic and cultural issues increasingly important. To successfully compete in today's global on-demand economy, companies must localize their products and services to fit the needs of the local market in terms of language, culture, functionality, work practices, as well as legal and regulatory requirements. In recognition of the growing importance of localization, this volume explores a certain number of key issues, including: * Return on investment and the localization business case * Localization cost drivers and cost-containment strategies * Localization quality and customer-focused quality management * Challenges posed by localization of games, including Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs) * Using a meta-language to facilitate accurate translation of disembodied content * The case for managing source-language terminology * Terminology management in the localization process * Reconciling industry needs and academic objectives in localization education * Localization standards and the commoditization of linguistic information * The creation and application of language industry standards * Rethinking customer-focused localization through user-centered design * Moving from translation reuse to language reuse  Parenting and Couple Relationships Among LGBTQ+ People in Diverse Contexts English | 2021 | ISBN: 303084188X | 601 Pages | PDF EPUB | 3 MB This book analyzes how the increasing number of same-sex couples is changing the traditional concepts of family and parenthood, and how these changes affect the psychological studies of family, couple relationships and human development. The majority of chapters included in this contributed volume present results of research conducted with LGBTQ+ people in Brazil, a country where same-sex couples have been recognized by the national legislation since 2011, but is currently facing a conservative wave which threatens much of the victories gained by the LGBTQ+ movement in recent years. That's why this book aims to provide both updated theoretical and methodological contributions as well as ethically and political engaged reflections to the field of psychological studies of LGBTQ+ parenting and couple relationships.  Openhearted: Eighty Years of Love, Loss, Laughter and Letting Go by Ann Ingle English | September 23rd, 2021 | ISBN: 1844885712 | 266 pages | True EPUB | 0.81 MB SHORTLISTED FOR TWO IRISH BOOK AWARDS 2021  Open Praxis, Open Access: Digital Scholarship In Action by Darren Chase and Dana Haugh English | May 27, 2019 | ISBN: 0838918670 | 288 pages | EPUB | 3 MB Many in the world of scholarship share the conviction that open access will be the engine of transformation leading to more culture, more research, more discovery, and more solutions to small and big problems.

This collection provides a major assessment of style in Victorian fiction and demonstrates that style - the language, techniques and artistry of prose - is inseparable from meaning and that it is through the many resources of style that the full compass of meaning makes itself known. Leading scholars in the field present an engaging assessment of major Victorian novelists, illustrating how productive and illuminating close attention to literary style can be. Collectively, they build a fresh and nuanced understanding of how style functioned in the literature of the nineteenth century, and propose that the fiction of this era demands we think about what style does, as much as what style is. |
