From Sign to Signing: v. 3: Iconicity in Language and Literature (Iconicity in language & literature) By Wolfgang G. Muller, Olga Fischer
2001 | 286 Pages | ISBN: 9027225931 | PDF | 4 MB
This volume offers a selection of papers given at the Third International Symposium on Iconicity in Language and Literature (Jena 2001). The studies collected here present a number of new departures. Special consideration is given to the way non-linguistic visual and auditory signs (such as gestures and bird sounds) are represented in language, and more specifically in "signed" language, and how such signs influence semantic conceptualization. Other studies examine more closely how visual signs and representations of time and space are incorporated or reflected in literary language, in fiction as well as (experimental) poetry. A further new approach concerns intermedial iconicity, which emerges in art when its medium is changed or another medium is imitated. A more abstract, diagrammatic type of iconicity is again investigated, with reference to both language and literature: some essays focus on the device of reduplication, isomorphic tendencies in word formation and on creative iconic patterns in syntax, while others explore numerical design in Dante and geometrical patterning in Dylan Thomas. A number of theoretically-oriented papers pursue post-Peircean approaches, such as the application of reader-response theory and of systems theory to iconicity.

From Metaphysics to Ethics: A Defence of Conceptual Analysis By Frank Jackson
2000 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 0198250614 | PDF | 1 MB
Frank Jackson champions the cause of conceptual analysis as central to philosophical inquiry. In recent years conceptual analysis has been undervalued and widely misunderstood, suggests Jackson. He argues that such analysis is mistakenly clouded in mystery, preventing a whole range of important questions from being productively addressed. He anchors his argument in discussions of specific philosophical issues, starting with the metaphysical doctrine of physicalism and moving on, via free will, meaning, personal identity, motion, and change, to ethics and the philosophy of color. In this way the book not only offers a methodological program for philosophy, but also casts new light on some much-debated problems and their interrelations.

Jim Cullen, "From Memory to History: Television Versions of the Twentieth Century"
English | ISBN: 1978813813 | 2021 | 255 pages | MOBI | 2 MB
Our understanding of history is often mediated by popular culture, and television series set in the past have provided some of our most indelible images of previous times. Yet such historical television programs always reveal just as much about the era in which they are produced as the era in which they are set; there are few more quintessentially late-90s shows than That '70s Show, for example.

From Marxism to Post-marxism By Goran Therborn
2008 | 194 Pages | ISBN: 1844671887 | PDF | 6 MB
A comprehensive history of the development of Marxist theory by a major social theorist. In this succinct and panoramic work-both stimulating for the specialist and accessible to the general reader-one of the world's leading social theorists, G?ran Therborn, tackles the question of the trajectory of Marxism in the twentieth century and its legacy for radical thought in the twenty-first. Addressing the history of critical theory from the contemporary vantage-point characterized by postmodernism, post-Marxism and critiques of Eurocentrism, Therborn probes how the recent theoretical currents-including those of Slavoj Zizek, Antonio Negri, and Alain Badiou-have coped with the changed intellectual as well as political and economic contexts. In the light of these discussions, Therborn then proceeds to a global investigation of the parameters of twenty-first century politics. This will become the essential appraisal of Marxism in the modern age.
