Shakespeare on Page and Stage: Selected Essays by Stanley Wells, edited by Paul Edmondson English | November 1, 2016 | ISBN: 0198786549 | True EPUB | 300 pages | 0.8 MB This volume presents a winning selection of the very best essays from the long and distinguished career of Stanley Wells, one of the most well-known and respected Shakespeare scholars in the world. Wells's accomplishments include editing the entire canon of Shakespeare plays for the ground-breaking Oxford Shakespeare and over his lifetime, Wells has made significant contributions to debates over literary criticism of the works, genre study, textual theory, Shakespeare's afterlife in the theatre, and contemporary performance.  James Shapiro, "Shakespeare and the Jews" English | 1997 | ISBN: 023110345X, 0231178670 | EPUB | pages: 320 | 4.7 mb Going against the grain of the dominant scholarship on the period, which generally ignores the impact of Jewish questions in early modern England, James Shapiro presents how Elizabethans imagined Jews to be utterly different from themselves--in religion, race, nationality, and even sexuality. From strange cases of Christians masquerading as Jews to bizarre proposals to settle foreign Jews in Ireland, this book looks into the crisis of cultural identity in Elizabethan England and sheds new light on The Merchant of Venice.  Shakespeare and the Arts of Language (Oxford Shakespeare Topics) by Russ McDonald English | April 5, 2001 | ISBN: 0198711700, 0198711719 | True EPUB | 224 pages | 2.5 MB Written in a lucid, non-technical style, this book starts with the story of how the English language changed throughout the sixteenth century.  Shakespeare | Cut: Rethinking Cutwork in an Age of Distraction (Oxford Wells Shakespeare Lectures) by Bruce R. Smith English | September 16, 2016 | ISBN: 0198735529, 019883117X | True EPUB | 176 pages | 7.7 MB In distracted times like the present, Shakespeare too has been driven to distraction. Shakespeare | Cut considers contemporary practices of cutting up Shakespeare in stage productions, videogames, book sculptures, and YouTube postings, but it also takes the long view of how Shakespeare's texts have been cut apart in creative ways beginning in Shakespeare's own time.  Sexualities in the Works of Joss Whedon By Lewis Call 2020 | 251 Pages | ISBN: 1476675066 | PDF | 20 MB Joss Whedon's works, across all media including television, film, musicals, and comic books, are known for their commitment to gender and sexual equality. They have always encouraged their audiences to love whomever, and however, they wish. This book is a history of the sexualities represented in the works of Joss Whedon and it covers all of Whedon's genres, including fantasy, horror, science fiction, westerns, superhero stories, and Shakespearean comedy. Unique for its consideration of the entire arc of Whedon's two-decade career, from the beginning of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's first season in 1997 through the conclusion of its twelfth (comic book) season in 2018, this book examines in detail both better-known queer sexualities of the LGBTQ+ spectrum, and lesser-known non-normative sexualities. The book includes chapters on Whedon's sexually dominant women and submissive men, sexual pluralism on Firefly, disabled sexualities in Whedon's superhero narratives, zoophilia in Buffy, queer and heteronormative sexualities in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, the subversion of the sexual tropes of slasher films in The Cabin in Woods, and dominance and submission in Whedon's Much Ado About Nothing.  Sex and sexuality : For every women by Watson Thomas English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0B941VKKC | 135 pages | EPUB | 0.86 Mb This book explains sex and sexuality. Sex and sexuality is incorporated into nearly every culture around the world; however, many people are unfamiliar with the appropriate words used to define sexual expression and interactions, often using these terms interchangeably. While sex is the act of engaging in sexual behaviors, sexuality describes how an individual chooses to express themselves as a sexual being. Additionally, sexuality can be shaped by many factors such as experiences, societal expectations, attitudes, values, and beliefs. This article reviews sex and sexuality, exploring how these concepts affect everyday experiences and interactions.  Key23, "Sex Magic/ The guide: Our path to liberation in a wounded society" English | ISBN: 1504354249 | 2016 | 196 pages | PDF | 11 MB Sex Magic!  Katrin Pahl, "Sex Changes with Kleist" English | ISBN: 0810140128 | 2019 | 256 pages | PDF | 2 MB Sex Changes with Kleist analyzes how the dramatist and poet Heinrich von Kleist (1777-1811) responded to the change in the conception of sex and gender that occurred in the eighteenth century. Specifically, Katrin Pahl shows that Kleist resisted the shift from a one-sex to the two-sex and complementary gender system that is still prevalent today. With creative close readings engaging all eight of his plays, Pahl probes Kleist's appreciation for incoherence, his experimentation with alternative symbolic orders, his provocative understanding of emotion, and his camp humor. Pahl demonstrates that rather than preparing modern homosexuality, Kleist puts an end to modern gender norms even before they take hold and refuses the oppositional organization of sexual desire into homosexual and heterosexual that sprouts from these norms.  Sara Baume, "Seven Steeples" English | 2022 | ISBN: 006326868X, 0358629233 | 192 pages | EPUB | 2.8 MB "One of the most beautiful novels I have ever read." -New York Times Book Review  Service Design for Urban Commons English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031060342 | 128 Pages | PDF (True) | 4 MB This book explores the application of service design to urban commons. It originates from a project developed by the research group of POLIMI DESIS Lab of Politecnico di Milano, aimed at imagining the future of the Reggio Emilia Ducal Palace and its park - the Reggia di Rivalta. The peculiarity of the project lays in the idea that the design of a (public) space should be informed by the design of its services, because the development of specific activities actually builds a fundamental part of the identity of a place, conceiving both the tangible and intangible dimensions as part of a single creative process. The combination of a participatory process and the integration of spatial and service design led to infrastructuring a multi-stakeholder participatory action research of envisioning the future of a public good. This effort has been thus framed into a working methodology, specific tools and progressive outputs, which are defined as Service Master Planning (the process), and Service Master Plan (the product), allowing service design professionals to expand their knowledge and develop skills for a new field of application connected to urban planning. |
