Free Download Rediscovering Women Writers of Wartime London: Shining a Spotlight onto the Blitzed City
by Evelina Garay Collcutt
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1527529460 | 198 Pages | PDF | 30 MB
This book shows the war-stricken city through the eyes of five women writers, whose novels vividly portray life in the Blitz. This new appraisal of their work brings to light the way in which they documented the Blitz in their fiction, highlighting the social changes which were taking place, especially in the lives of women, and leading to a fuller understanding of those turbulent times. The book re-evaluates the contribution of these writers to wartime literature, showing how their long-neglected novels focus on the experiences of individual women protagonists perceived in close relation to the menacing forces of war. This title will interest all those seeking to gain further knowledge of 20th-century women's writing, wartime literature, and social history as recorded in fiction.

Free Download Laetitia Monbec, "Recovering Language in Higher Education: Social Justice, Ethics and Practices"
English | ISBN: 3031766989 | 2025 | 169 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This volume provides an original theoretical and practical discussion around language ontology, social theory, ethics, and pedagogy to enhance socially committed teaching and scholarship in Higher Education. The authors focus on language and literacy and English for Academic Purposes provisions in HE and bring together social semiotics (Systemic Functional Semiotics) and Bourdieu's Field Theory to illuminate the norms and orthodoxies which shape practices in these fields. Part 1 aims to 'break the illusio' around language ontology, ethics and pedagogy which hinders social justice aspirations. Part 2 proposes ways to recover meaning and move forward, through deliberate ethical considerations, and a detailed and expanded knowledgebase for language educators. The volume will be of interest to anyone involved in language and literacy in Higher Education.

Free Download Recovering Christian Realism : Just War Theory As a Political Ethic By H. David Baer
2014 | 119 Pages | ISBN: 1498507107 | EPUB | 1 MB
In Recovering Christian Realism, H. David Baer interprets just war theory as political ethic concerned with the moral administration of power. He argues that contemporary just war theorists, by debating the finer points of individual criteria, have lost sight of the theory of politics that gives rise to just war thinking in the first place. Baer attempts to relocate just war theory within the tradition of Christian realism in order to develop an ethic capable of addressing the uses of power. He argues the just war criteria unfold from a description of the political act, one which harnesses power to peace and points the way toward an ethic of armed force and international relations.
