Julian Johnson, "After Debussy: Music, Language, and the Margins of Philosophy"
English | ISBN: 0190066822 | 2020 | 396 pages | MOBI | 2 MB
Classical music shows a close relationship to language, and both musicology and philosophy have tended to approach music from that angle, exploring it in terms of expression, representation, and discourse. This book turns that idea on its head. Focusing on the music of Debussy and its legacy in the century since his death, After Debussy offers a groundbreaking new perspective on twentieth-century music that foregrounds a sensory logic of sound over quasi-linguistic ideas of structure or meaning. Author Julian Johnson argues that Debussy's music exemplifies this idea, influencing the music of successive composers who took up the mantle of emphasizing sound over syntax, sense over signification. In doing so, this music not only anticipates a central problem of contemporary thought-the gap between language and our embodied relation to the world-but also offers a solution.

After Capitalism (New Critical Theory) By David Schweickart
2002 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0742513009 | PDF | 6 MB
David Schweickart moves beyond the familiar arguments against globalizing capitalism to contribute something absolutely necessary and long overdue--a coherent vision of a viable, desirable alternative to capitalism. He names this system Economic Democracy, a successor-system to capitalism which preserves the efficiency strengths of a market economy while extending democracy to the workplace and to the structures of investment finance. Drawing on both theoretical and empirical research, Schweickart shows how and why this model is efficient, dynamic, and superior to capitalism along a range of values.

Afrika und Rom: Die Geschichte und das Erbe des Römischen Reiches auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent (German Edition) by Charles River Editors
German | October 2, 2025 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0FTTD9LSB | 149 pages | EPUB | 10 Mb
Natürlich war das ptolemäische Ägypten nicht das einzige Reich, das Rom auslöschte. Karthago war eine der großen antiken Zivilisationen, und auf seinem Höhepunkt beherrschte das wohlhabende karthagische Reich den Mittelmeerraum gegenüber Griechenland und Rom, mit Handelsunternehmen und einem Einfluss, der von Spanien bis in die Türkei reichte. Zu mehreren Zeitpunkten in der Geschichte hatte es sogar die reale Chance, das junge Römische Reich oder die untergegangenen griechischen Poleis (Stadtstaaten) als Herrscher über das Mittelmeer abzulösen. Obwohl Karthago es bei weitem vorzog, wirtschaftlichen Druck und Einfluss auszuüben, bevor es auf direkte militärische Macht zurückgriff (und sogar so weit ging, dass es sich während eines Großteils seiner Geschichte hauptsächlich auf Söldnerarmeen verließ, die mit seinem enormen Reichtum bezahlt wurden), brachte es dennoch eine Reihe hervorragender Generäle hervor, von Leuten wie Hanno Magnus bis hin zu dem großen Schreckgespenst der römischen Albträume selbst: Hannibal.

Africanizing Knowledge: African Studies Across the Disciplines By Toyin Falola, Christian Jennings
2002 | 447 Pages | ISBN: 0765801388 | PDF | 32 MB
Nearly four decades ago, Terence Ranger questioned to what extent African history was actually African, and whether methods and concerns derived from Western historiography were really sufficient tools for researching and narrating African history. Despite a blossoming and branching out of Africanist scholarship in the last twenty years, that question is still haunting. The most prestigious locations for production of African studies are outside Africa itself, and scholars still seek a solution to this paradox. They agree that the ideal solution would be a flowering of institutions of higher learning within Africa which would draw not only Africanist scholars, but also financial resources to the continent.While the focus of this volume is on historical knowledge, the effort to make African scholarship "more African" is fundamentally interdisciplinary. The essays in this volume employ several innovative methods in an effort to study Africa on its own terms. The book is divided into four parts. Part 1, "Africanizing African History," offers several diverse methods for bringing distinctly African modes of historical discourse to the foreground in academic historical research. Part 2, "African Creative Expression in Context," presents case studies of African art, literature, music, and poetry. It attempts to strip away the exotic or primitivist aura such topics often accumulate when presented in a foreign setting in order to illuminate the social, historical, and aesthetic contexts in which these works of art were originally produced. Part 3, "Writing about Colonialism," demonstrates that the study of imperialism in Africa remains a springboard for innovative work, which takes familiar ideas about Africa and considers them within new contexts. Part 4, "Scholars and Their Work," critically examines the process of African studies itself, including the roles of scholars in the production of knowledge about Africa.This timely and thoughtful volume will be of interest to African studies scholars and students who are concerned about the ways in which Africanist scholarship might become "more African."

Noah Tsika, "African Media in an Age of Extraction "
English | ISBN: 9048561256 | 2025 | 360 pages | EPUB | 10 MB
African Media in an Age of Extraction takes a fresh, site-specific look at the relationship between moving images and the mining of natural resources, arguing that where we "place" Nollywood and other industries has important practical and conceptual consequences. Such locations are not just spatial metaphors but also tangible geographies with material connections to extractive economies. Sites of film production are often spaces of oil prospecting, timber harvesting, and mineral extraction―natural environments continuously transformed by capital. African Media in an Age of Extraction links such absolute spaces―reclaimed lands, razed forests, petroleum zones, abandoned coal mines collecting moss, vast tin fields inspiring illegal dredging by populations locked out of the licit economy―to the abstract and lived dimensions of film villages, shooting locations, and exhibition centers. The geographies of African media industries are not fixed locations cleanly separated from surrounding areas or from the wider world (including Hollywood), nor are they fully detachable from the mineral and hydrocarbon resources that also define them. Considering multiple scales―the local, the national, the regional, the continental, the planetary―this book takes stock of the physical terrain and extractive objects that Nollywood shares with other industries and that structure screen media more broadly. Topographies, political economies, national identities, and natural resources are entwined in ways that cinema makes intelligible and that carry the potential to transform the way we see the medium itself.

Africa's Winds of Change: Memoirs of an International Tanzanian By Al Noor Kassum
2007 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 184511583X | PDF | 13 MB
The 1960s were a tumultuous period in the history of Africa as one country after another won independence from the colonial powers. This was particularly true of Tanzania as it sought to carve out a role for itself between conflicting European and inter-African interests. It was in these extraordinary times that Al Noor Kassum rose to become a prominent political figure in newly independent Tanzania. Hand-picked by Julius Nyerere - later to become the country's first President - to run for elections on a Tanganyika African National Union ticket, he embarked on a career that brought him to prominence nationally and internationally.Africa's Winds of Change documents the changes that have taken place in Tanzania from the middle of the 20th century to the present day, through the prism of an East African Asian experience. The author sheds new light on the character and legacy of Julius Nyerere, who emerges as radically different from the stereotypical anti-Western firebrand which became his image in the West.Africa's Winds of Change offers a fascinating personal history of a unique African nation at a critical stage in its development.

Africa and the North: Between Globalization and Marginalization (The New International Relations) By Ulf Engel
2005 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 0415333911 | PDF | 2 MB
An important new discussion of Africa's place in the international system. This volume discusses Africa's place in the international system, examining the way in which the Westphalian system, in light of the impact of globalization and transnational networks, continues to play a major role in the structuring of Africa's international relations.The book provides a solid empirical analysis of key global players in Africa - France, the UK, the US, Japan, Germany, the EU and the UN - and of their policies towards the region. In the context of the 'war against terrorism', African political stability becomes a consideration of increasing importance. By analyzing the relevance of the states in the North, this book challenges conventional wisdom in recent international relations thinking. It applies the concept of an 'international policy community' to bridge the gap between the 'domestic' and the 'international', explaining why Africa retains a role in global politics out of any proportion to its economic weight.
