Cultures and caricatures of British imperial aviation examines the experiences of those (mostly men) who flew solo or with a companion (racing or for leisure), who were airline passengers (doing colonial administration, business or research), or who flew as civilian air and ground crews. For airborne elites, flying was a modern and often enviable way of managing, using and experiencing empire. On the ground, aviation was a device for asserting old empire: adventure and modernity were accompanied by supremacism. At the time, however, British civil imperial flying was presented romantically in books, magazines and exhibitions. Eighty years on, imperial flying is still remembered, reproduced and re-enacted in caricature. ![]() Madhu Bhalla, "Culture as Power: Buddhist Heritage and the Indo-Japanese Dialogue" English | ISBN: 0367313596 | 2020 | 214 pages | PDF | 9 MB This book presents new studies on intellectual and cultural interactions in the context of Buddhist heritage and Indo-Japanese dialogue in the late 19th and early 20th centuries on art, religion, and cultural politics. By revisiting Buddhist connections between India and Japan, it examines the pathways of communication on common aesthetic and religious heritage that emerged in the backdrop of colonial experiences and the rise of Asian nationalisms. The volume discusses themes such as Asian arts and crafts under colonialism, formation of East Asian art collections, development of Buddhist art history in Japan, Japanese encounters with Ajanta, India in the history of the Shinto tradition, Japan in India's xenology, and Buddhism and world peace, and suggests paradigms of reconnecting cultural heritage within a global platform. ![]() Crochet Designs For Contemporary Patch Cords Outfits 18 Crochet Models For Latest Corded Outfits by Belloli Publishing English | 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0916BKRHQ | 240 pages | EPUB | 18 Mb Crochet Designs For Contemporary Patch Cords Outfits 18 Crochet Models For Latest Corded Outfits ![]() Victor Malo-Juvera, "Critical Approaches to Teaching the High School Novel: Reinterpreting Canonical Literature " English | ISBN: 0815379889 | 2018 | 230 pages | PDF | 1432 KB This edited collection will turn a critical spotlight on the set of texts that has constituted the high school canon of literature for decades. By employing a set of fresh, vibrant critical lenses―such as youth studies and disabilities studies― that are often unfamiliar to advanced students and scholars of secondary English, this book provides divergent approaches to traditional readings and pedagogical practices surrounding these familiar works. By introducing and applying these interpretive frames to the field of secondary English education, this book demonstrates that there is more to say about these texts, ways to productively problematize them, and to reconfigure how they may be read and used in the classroom. ![]() Alpesh Kantilal Patel, "Creolizing Europe: Legacies and Transformations " English | ISBN: 1781381712 | 2015 | 256 pages | PDF | 1489 KB Creolizing Europe critically interrogates creolization as the decolonial, rhizomatic thinking necessary for understanding the cultural and social transformations set in motion through trans/national dislocations.

Mario Damen, "Constructing and Representing Territory in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe" English | ISBN: 9463726136 | 2021 | 366 pages | PDF | 4 MB In recent political and legal history, scholars seldom specify how and why they use the concept of territory. In research on state-formation processes and nation building, for instance, the term mostly designates an enclosed geographical area ruled by a central government. Inspired by ideas from political geographers, this book explores the layered and constantly changing meanings of territory in late medieval and early modern Europe before cartography and state formation turned boundaries and territories into more fixed (but still changeable) geographical entities. Its central thesis is that assessing the notion of territory in a pre-modern setting involves analysing territorial practices: practices that relate people and power to space(s). The essays in this book not only examine the construction and spatial structure of pre-modern territories but also explore their perception and representation through the use of a broad range of sources: from administrative texts to maps, from stained-glass windows to chronicles. ![]() Aaron Stephen Moore, "Constructing East Asia: Technology, Ideology, and Empire in Japan's Wartime Era, 1931-1945" English | 2015 | pages: 329 | ISBN: 0804797242, 0804785392 | PDF | 5,2 mb The conventional understanding of Japanese wartime ideology has for years been summed up by just a few words: anti-modern, spiritualist, and irrational. Yet such a cut-and-dried picture is not at all reflective of the principles that guided national policy from 1931-1945. Challenging the status quo, Constructing East Asia examines how Japanese intellectuals, bureaucrats, and engineers used technology as a system of power and mobilization―what historian Aaron Moore terms a "technological imaginary"―to rally people in Japan and its expanding empire. By analyzing how these different actors defined technology in public discourse, national policies, and large-scale infrastructure projects, Moore reveals wartime elites as far more calculated in thought and action than previous scholarship allows. Moreover, Moore positions the wartime origins of technology deployment as an essential part of the country's national policy and identity, upending another predominant narrative―namely, that technology did not play a modernizing role in Japan until the "economic miracle" of the postwar years. |
