Ohio University Press Powerful Frequencies Radio State Power and the
Book SynopsisRadio technology and broadcasting played a central role in the formation of colonial Portuguese Southern Africa and the postcolonial nation-state, Angola. Moorman details how settlers, the colonial state, African nationalists, and the postcolonial state all used radio to project power, while the latter employed it to challenge empire.Trade Review“This is an outstanding book. Moorman, already the author of a superb and influential social history of Angolan music, writes the definitive work on Angolan radio during the colonial and post-independence periods. It not only unearths new knowledge about Angolan history, but places Angolan developments in the wider canvas of the Cold war. That Moorman has achieved this through a book that is elegantly written and compellingly argued are but two of its many qualities. This will be a must read not only to those focused on modern Africa, but to anyone interested in the workings of state propaganda and the global Cold War.”“Moorman’s incisive study argues that the medium of radio is central to the history of human actors, political movements, wars, as well as the struggle for and the exercise of power in southern Africa. Yet radio has not heretofore been an object of systematic analysis in connection to Angola. Following her groundbreaking Intonations, Moorman once again proves herself to be one of the leading scholars on this key southern African nation.”“A gripping modern history of Angola that engages recent work reconfiguring the place of technology in everyday folks’ ability to experience, make, and make sense of politics as well as the place of the state in the history of settler colonialism, national liberation, decolonization, the Cold War, and postcolonial governance in the wider region.” * American Historical Review *“Marissa Moorman’s new book aptly captures the multiple dimensions of the enduring power of radio in mediating different historical moments in Angola. It is an excellent book that draws on multiple texts to narrate the role of radio both in Angola’s independence struggle and in the post-war of era of nation building.”“Moorman’s skilled narrative style allows her to move easily in her analysis between scales ranging from the global to the densely and vividly local. At moments the text reads like a thriller, one that informs and enlightens, and also complicates how we think about radio.” * Kronos *“In Moorman’s analysis, radio does not just exist for its content, it exists as a particular type of modern technology whose very power stems from its capacity to act (and be acted on) by its audiences…. Powerful Frequencies tells us how and why we need to finely tune our receivers, to attend to these ranging forms of power, and to hopefully—like the Angolans that have listened so carefully—find new ways to innovate and protest.” * Africa Is a Country *

New York University Press Preaching on Wax
Book SynopsisFrom 1925 to 1941, African American clergymen teamed up with leading record labels such as Columbia, Paramount, Victor-RCA to record and sell their sermons on wax. These phonograph preachers significantly shaped the development of black religion during the interwar period. This book offers a religious history of the phonograph industry.Trade ReviewAfter reading this book, I now understand again, but really for the first time, what it was that entranced me when first listening more than twenty years ago to the Rev. Gates, a moment that altered the course of my scholarly career since. Thank you, Professor Martin, for that. * Church History *Although histories of American religion have focused on the relationship of radio to the growth of preaching in America, especially among white clergy, there has been no study of the impact of the phonograph on the development of black preaching in the mid-20th century. Martin draws deeply on record company archives to explore how the phonograph sermons of black Protestant preachers between 1925 and 1941 significantly shaped African-American religion and culture.... Martin's vital study contributes significantly not only to the history of religion, but also to the lively, ongoing discussion of 'race records' by African-American musicians in early 20th-century America. * Publishers Weekly *Religion Publishing Update Fall 2014: In Profile: "In the early half of the 20th century, many black preachers discovered a new toolthe phonograph. Sermons recorded on vinyl (or, at first, wax) enabled them to reach beyond their local churches and market their sermons to other eager listeners. The records often outstripped the sales of those by popular blues singers like Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey, and while many preachers went to places like Chicago to get record deals, record company executives began traveling from church to church in the rural South in search of the next celebrity preacher. In Preaching on Wax, Lerone A. Martin illuminates this little-known chapter in American cultural history. * Publishers Weekly *Martin has crafted a tight, well-conceived narrative that demonstrates persuasively how religious, commercial, and technological forces came together in the making of modern African American Christianity. Most important, perhaps, its crisp, accessible prose makes it a pleasure to read. * Journal of American History *Eloquently recalls the at once triumphant and controversial history of Americas first recordings of black sermonic voicesan innovation that has transformed American religion, music, and the arts more broadly. Important and timely, Preaching on Wax insists that we reframe our understanding of the spiritual impulses, racial politics, and commercial influences that mediate a rich strand of African American religion. Indeed, this is a must read! -- Marla Frederick,Harvard UniversityOne of the most richly textured accounts of the emergence of black consumer culture to appear in many years. Martin has made a significant contribution to our understanding of how the rise of 'new sacred commodities' during the first years of the 20th century profoundly shaped modern African American religion. Assiduously researched and full of startling insight, Preaching on Wax challenges us to rethink the sources of African American religious authority during the Great Migration. -- Wallace D. Best,Princeton UniversityMartinsPreaching on Waxis a beautifully written, well-researched book...Martins book also compels the student and scholar of African-American Christianity to re-think the relationship between black religion, popular culture, and commercial success. * The Marginalia Review of Books *Table of ContentsContents Acknowledgments ix Note on the Text xi 1 Introduction 1 2 Regulation, Not Rebellion: From "Rough Music" to Democratic Disorder 21 3 "Secret Plodders": Anti-Federalism, Anonymity, and the Struggle for Democratic Dissent 55 4 Institutionalizing Counterpublicity: The Democratic Societies of the 1790s 83 5 James Madison: Public Opinion and Dissentient Democracy 115 6 "Salutary Collisions" and Multiple Discourses: A Farmer, a Lawyer, and Two Unknown Democrats 147 7 The "Saucy Sons of Enquiry": Thomas Cooper and Democratic Dissent 177 8 Conclusion 197 Notes 207 Bibliography 243 Index 257 About the Author 262

The opening of the Secret Vatican Archives on the records regarding Pius XII will shed light on the most controversial pontificate of the 20th century. Moreover, the recent rearrangement of the Vatican media provided the creation of a multimedia archive that is still in Fieri.This research is an original point of view on the most relevant questions concerning these decades: the relation of the Catholic Church with the Fascist regimes and Western democracies; the attitude toward anti-Semitism and the Shoah in Europe, and in general toward the total war; the relationship of the Holy See with the new media in the mass society; the questions arisen in the after-war period such as the Christian Democratic

Purdue University Press WBAA: 100 Years as the Voice of Purdue
Book SynopsisWBAA: 100 Years as the Voice of Purdue documents the fascinating history of WBAA, Indiana's first radio station founded at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, on April 4, 1922. Richly illustrated with more than 150 photos, the book chronicles the station's evolution over the years, while highlighting the staff, students, and volunteers significant to WBAA's success. WBAA began as a lab experiment conducted by Purdue electrical engineering students in 1910. Later, the station became a vital method for Purdue's Cooperative Extension Service to broadcast the knowledge of the university, particularly agricultural news, to the people of the state. From the 1960s to 1980s, WBAA aired Purdue basketball and football games, with station manager John DeCamp as the "Voice of the Boilermakers." In 1971, WBAA became a member station of National Public Radio (NPR), offering popular programming such as All Things Considered and Morning Edition. Listeners tuned into WBAA to hear classical, jazz, and international music, along with in-depth news reporting. Mayors and Purdue presidents aired weekly programs. WBAA gave a voice to arts and community organizations.Read about the invention of the first all-electronic television by pioneering Purdue scientist Roscoe George; WBAA's long-running School of the Air educational program deemed the "invisible textbook"; and the Midwest Program on Airborne Television Instruction (MPATI), an airplane that transmitted videos to schools while flying over six Midwestern states in the 1960s. Famous WBAA alumni include NBC sportscaster Chris Schenkel, comedian Durward Kirby, Today Show newscaster Lew Wood, Indiana State Representative Sheila Klinker, actress Karen Black, and actor George Peppard, among others.From the vacuum tube era to the digital age, this thoroughly researched book brings to light the intriguing backstories of the esteemed one hundred-year history of WBAA.Table of Contents Foreword Preface 1.

James Currey Radio in Africa: Publics, Cultures, Communities
Book SynopsisRadio is 'Africa's medium', with an ability to transcend barriers to access, facilitate political debate and shape identities. Contributors investigate the multiple roles of radio in the lives of African listeners across the continent. Some essays turn to the history of radio and its part in culture and politics. Others show how radio throws up new tensions, yet endorses social innovation and the making of new publics. A number of contributors look at radio's current role in creating listening communities that radically shift the nature of the public sphere. Yet others cover radio's central role in the emergence of informed publics in fragile national spaces, or in failed states. The book also highlights radio's links to the new media, its role in resistance to oppressive regimes, and points in several cases to the importance of African languages in building modern communities that embrace both local and global knowledge. Liz Gunner is visiting Professor at the Wits Institute for Social and Economic Research; Dina Ligagais a lecturer in the Department of Media Studies, University of the Witwatersrand; Dumisani Moyo is Research and Publications Manager at the Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa.

James Currey Voices of Ghana: Literary Contributions to the
Book SynopsisAnnotated, scholarly edition of the original landmark anthology, Voices of Ghana, containing poetry, plays, stories and essays first broadcast on radio in the years leading up to Ghana's independence. Ghana's first radio programme of original literature, The Singing Net, began in 1955 as part of the development of a national radio station in the years leading to independence in 1957. Its central aim was to bring Ghanaianwriters to the forefront of cultural programming as part of the Africanisation of radio in Ghana. It was a critical cultural expression of the radical changes that were unfolding across the colonial world. The programme successfully introduced listeners to a series of pioneering Ghanaian authors who would go on to become significant figures of Anglophone West African literature in the early postcolonial decades: Efua Sutherland, Frank Parkes, Amu Djoleto,Geormbeeyi Adali-Mortty, Albert Kayper-Mensah, Kwesi Brew, Cameron Duodu, J.H. Nketia and many others. The anthology, Voices of Ghana (1958) is a collection of the poetry, short stories, play scripts and critical discussions that were aired on the Gold Coast Broadcasting Service (later the Ghana Broadcasting System) (1954-1958). Both The Singing Net and Voices of Ghana were edited by the BBC producer, Henry Swanzy. The context of Ghana's independence, the singularity of the anthology's history, and the significance of many of the writers all contribute to the importance of this text. This second edition is a timely intervention into recent debateswithin postcolonial studies and world literature on the importance of broadcast culture in the dissemination of "new literatures" from the colonial world. It includes an unabridged version of the 1958 text, a new introduction andfootnoted annotations, which draw on extensive research undertaken in Ghana and Britain. It will appeal to a general readership with an interest in Ghanaian literature, 1950s broadcast culture, the figure of Dr Kwame Nkrumah and the making of a national literature in the era of decolonisation, as well as engaging scholars. The new edition presents a deeply insightful and engaging history of Voices of Ghana and reintroduces the original works on theoccasion of the anthology's 60th anniversary. Victoria Ellen Smith is a Lecturer in the Department of History, University of Ghana, Legon Ghana & Nigeria: Sub-Saharan PublishersTrade ReviewThis is an important book in its own right, and its appeal lies in but also crucially well beyond the usual groves of academe. It is a celebrated text, long unavailable to those interested in owning a copy. It is at once an avowal and a celebration of Ghana's independence under Nkrumah in 1957, and a notable addition to the now busy field of African literature. After fifty years of research in Ghana I learned new things from Smith's impeccably researched and written introduction. The original is clear, engaging and thought provoking, and the new editorial material is illuminating and to the point. All in all, a pleasure to read. -- Tom McCaskie, Honorary Senior Research Fellow, University of BirminghamVoices of Ghana is an important and vital contribution to historical, sociological and literary study of West Africa. * AFRICA IN WORDS *This new scholarly edition is an invaluable reference point that draws attention to the interconnected networks and technologies out of which Ghana's literary traditions and national identity, as well as cultural and linguistic diversity, have been constructed and documented. * WASAFIRI *V.E. Smith edited and revised this second edition after nine years of quality research, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the original anthology. With a critical introduction and footnotes, Smith added value, authenticity, timeliness, and quality to this revised edition of the anthology. [...]If Africa is to revive its cultural values and participate in its development, then this book should be a readily available resource for policymakers and development stakeholders. It should also appeal to students and scholars in communication fields, especially those in specialties of broadcasting, indigenous development, and applied communications. * African Studies Quarterly *Table of ContentsPreface by Mustapha Abdul-Hamid (PhD), Minister of Information, Govt of Ghana Foreword by Atukwei Okai, Secretary-General, Pan-African Writers Association (PAWA) No Wings by Frank E.K.

Columbia Books on Architecture and the City Red Tape, A New Work by Les Levine, 1970 – To
Book SynopsisIn the summer of 1970, the artist Les Levine arrived at the University of Toronto to take part in the installation of site-specific work on the quadrangle in front of the University's Hart House. The intended piece-construction materials hung from high-tension rope between campus buildings-was quickly stymied as Levine encountered a series of bureaucratic impediments on the part of the University staff. What ensued was played into the conceptual conceit the artist had envisioned for the project. By collating the correspondence, telephone transcripts, and visual documentation of the eventual installation process, Levine used the work to demonstrate how the university itself functioned as a system. Red Tape publishes this project, which had existed only as a dossier in the artist's archive, for the first time. ?Red Tape is being published on the occasion of the exhibition "Les Levine: Bio-Tech Rehearsals 1965-1975," curated by Felicity D. Scott and Mark Wasiuta, at Columbia University's Arthur Ross Architecture Gallery.

Synema Gesellschaft Fur Film u. Medien Robert Beavers
Book SynopsisIn a career spanning five decades, Robert Beavers has distinguished himself as one of the most important American avant-garde filmmakers. From My Hand Outstretched to the Winged Distance and Sightless Measure, his cycle of 18 films made across Europe since 1967, to Pitcher of Colored Light (2007) and The Suppliant (2010), intimate portraits shot in the U.S., Beavers has produced a deeply original film language framed by his use of colored filters and mattes. His investigations of the handwork of anonymous artisans complement his dialogues with Ruskin, Leonardo, and Borromini in Ruskin (1975/1997), From the Notebook of (1971/1998), and The Hedge Theater (1986/2002). This volume contains critical investigations of Beavers' most important films and a collection of the filmmaker's own writings. Occupying a unique space between poetry and philosophy, his aphoristic meditations vivify his own work and generously illuminate the art of film.

University of Tokyo Press Collaborative Governance of Forestry
Book SynopsisThis extensive reference writes a modern history of forestry in Japan, Indonesia, the Solomon Islands, and other Asian countries, reflecting industrial and colonial exploitation, periods of excessive deforestation, and the alienation of local residents from natural resources. Drawing on their experience as "participant observers" in local practice, the authors suggest new, "inclusive" approaches to forestry governance that support sustainable development, environmental preservation, and productive collaboration by various stakeholders.The mismatched interests of local citizens and outsiders has split the development of Asia's natural and cultural resources. Taking this complexity into account, the essays in this volume advance a definition of effective governance that achieves more than the successful execution of resource management. It pursues a new vision of society in which all stakeholders collaborate to govern the use of certain resources. This volume outlines two key conditions for effective resource management: sharing and commitment (or graduated membership), which transcend mere material issues to determine the social and cultural value of a resource.Table of ContentsChapter 1 - Historical Typology of Collaborative Governance: Modern Forest Policy in Japan (Hiroaki KAKIZAWA)Chapter 2 - Endogenous Development and Collaborative Governance in Japanese Mountain Villages (Hironori OKUDA and Makoto INOUE)Chapter 3 - Collaborative Forest Governance in Mass Private Tree Plantation Management: Company-Community Forestry Partnership System in Java, Indonesia (PHBM) (Yasuhiro YOKOTA, Kazuhiro HARADA, ROHMAN, and Nur Oktalina SILVI, WIYONO)Chapter 4 - Legitimacy for "Great Happiness": The Communal Resource Utilization in Biche Village, Marovo Lagoon in the Solomon Islands (Motomu TANAKA)Chapter 5 - Task-sharing, to the Degree Possible: Collaboration Between Out-Migrants and Remaining Residents of a Mountain Community Experiencing Rural Depopulation (Mika OKUBO)Chapter 6 - Collaborative Governance for Planted Forest Resources: Japanese Experiences (Noriko SATO, Takahiro FUJIWARA, and Vinh Quang NGUYEN)Chapter 7 - Forest Resources and Actor Relationships: A Study of Changes Caused by Plantations in Lao PDR (Kimihiko HYAKUMURA)Chapter 8 - Whom to Share With?

Karolinum,Nakladatelstvi Univerzity Karlovy,Czech Republic Radio and the Performance of Government:
Book SynopsisAn original study of radio propaganda in Czechoslovakia. Between 1939 and 1945, Czechoslovakia disappeared from the maps, existing only as an imagined ‘free republic’ on the radio waves. Following the German invasion and annexation of Bohemia and Moravia and the declaration of independence by Slovakia on 15 March 1939, the Czechoslovak Republic was gone. From their position in exile in wartime London, former Czechoslovak President Edvard Beneš and the government that formed around him depended on radio to communicate with the public they strove to represent. The broadcasts made by government figures in London enabled a performance of authority to impress their hosts, allies, occupying enemies, and claimed constituents. This book examines this government program for the first time, making use of previously unstudied archival sources to examine how the exiles understood their mission and how their propaganda work was shaped by both British and Soviet influences. This study assesses the strengths, weaknesses, and limitations of the government’s radio propaganda as they navigated the complexities of exile, with chapters examining how they used the radio to establish their authority, how they understood the past and future of the Czechoslovak nation, and how they struggled to include Slovakia and Subcarpathian Ruthenia within it.Trade Review“The book makes an important contribution to our understanding of those who recreated Czechoslovakia in 1945. It reveals, via the broadcasts, what can be learnt about the exiles’ mentality and the major obstacles which confronted them from both enemies and allies… It will certainly be used as a starting point for new research about radio propaganda in wartime Central Europe.” * Mark Cornwall, University of Southampton *Table of Contents1.

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo Reading Comprehension in Polish and English –
Book SynopsisThis book is about reading. Throughout the book, the author explains the complexity of the dual-language involvement of FL/L2 reading by showing how L1 and FL/L2 factors interplay in FL/L2 reading. The main aim of the book is to explore reading in English in the foreign/second language context as a cross-linguistic phenomenon and to present the results of a think-aloud study which investigated reading in Polish as the L1 and English as the FL of Polish learners of English. The project consisted of six stages, each focussing on a different aspect of reading. Thus, the following was explored: reading strategies, problems and solutions, the way the subjects constructed their representations of the texts, the students' individual patterns of developing comprehension and effectiveness in identifying the main ideas. The findings revealed both differences and similarities between the subjects' reading in Polish and their reading in English. The book offers implications for further research and elucidates the usefulness of think-aloud protocols in foreign language instruction.

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo China at the Beginning of the Twenty–First
Book SynopsisChina at the beginning of the 21st century intrigues many researchers around the world. No different was the enthusiasm widely shared among the participants of the students' conference China at the beginning of the 21st century organized by the Institute of Middle and Far East Studies of Jagiellonian University in Kraków in April 2010. Research enthusiasm and inquisitive attitude of presenters and discussants observed during the conference inspired to go beyond the university walls and put this publication together. The problems discussed within this volume provide the readers with a background of most vital issues in modern China. They are related to the challenges of the Chinese society and state's international skirmishes. Each article is separately concluded by the author's findings, which is highly admirable, since the authors are young, but promising adepts in the field. At the same time, being open for criticism, the authors invite us to take a long hard look at China's modern challenges.Trade ReviewIn the 1980s and 1990s, China went through an intensive process of liberalization of social and cultural life, as well as economic reforms. As a result, China strengthened its position of the leading player of the globalized world, being quickly westernized at the same time. On the other hand, China is also one of the oldest civilizational centres, with a different and rich musical, theatrical, literary, philosophical, historical, and scientific tradition. That is why it is natural that various aspects concerning the present and the history of China arouse the interest of scientists that represent various areas of science. ( ) The collective work China at the Beginning of the 21st Century edited by Lukasz Gacek, PhD, and Ewa Trojnar, PhD, is a sign of this natural curiosity. ( ) All texts run in this book are on a proper factual and scientific level. The entirety describes and explains the reader the chosen, interesting areas of the Chinese reality at the beginning of the 21st century concerning cultural studies, international relations, as well as military and energy safety. -- Professor Dr. hab.

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo Lifelong Learning Today – New Areas, Contexts,
Book SynopsisLifelong Learning Today is the result of cooperation between the scientists of the University of Ljubljana and the Jagiellonian University in Cracow. The aim of the authors and editors was not to create a compendium of knowledge about the current state of the development of education in the field of lifelong learning. The creation of a publication that would present a comprehensive, "photographic" image of the state of research and practices in the field of lifelong learning would be so laborious and long-term that it would not keep up with the constant changes which appear in reality. The authors decided to present a compilation of examples illustrating areas worth considering, contexts and practices, as well as certain problems and dilemmas.The image of the reality outlined in this book is very selective, but "spatial" to such an extent that it enables for the grasping of its size and dynamism of development. It encompasses not only significant issues from the standpoint of economy in the scope of key competences, but also concepts related to the social, cultural, scientific, artistic and common schooling, leading to more comprehensive personal development and to raising the quality of life.Trade ReviewThe book Lifelong Learning Today: New Areas, Contexts, Practices is the result of cooperation between individuals from two well-known centres of pedagogical thought and the adult learning theory: University of Ljubljana and Jagiellonian University in Kraków. The authors of the texts constituting the volume have a contemporary and essentially correct understanding of the concept and idea of lifelong learning as a continuing process which begins in early childhood and goes on until the grand old age, formally divided into time periods requiring defined pedagogical strategies. The authors pointed out the areas and contexts of education not used so far in their respective countries and unanimously formulated suggestions on improving the worrying situation. Considering the process of lifelong learning in a vertical dimension, they demonstrated the achievements and shortcomings of education and educating people at its various stages, including adult education. They pointed out, how the effects and shortcomings of education in a given period of life affect the educational efforts in the subsequent periods and how to use positive organisational and methodical experiences from earlier stages of education in its later stages.The book contains numerous timeless supranational generalisations, which often lead to unambiguous suggestions regarding the optimisation of the practices associated with education and educating people at various stages in their lives.It is due to those attributes that the book will be of interest not only to theorists but also practitioners committed to furthering lifelong education. -- Prof. dr hab.

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo U.S.–Latin American Relations
Book SynopsisU.S. – Latin American Relations is the next volume in Basic American Documents. It presents a collections of primary sources related to U.S. relations with the Latin American and Caribbean region. The selection of texts and documents seek to demonstrate a more modern and complicated history. There are, of course, several texts documenting the American domination over Latin American and Caribbean States. Of particular note are those outlining recent differences between the United States and its southern neighbors over anti-drug policy and attitudes toward economic development. The works of Simón Bolivar and Jose Marti have provided eloquent testimony of how American governments have historically sought to dominate its southern neighbors. Mexico, Cuba, and most of Central American and Caribbean States have especially painful memories of American imperialism. But there are also significant documents that demonstrate how the United States and the Latin American and Caribbean states have established significant forms of regional cooperation. In the past these agreements have helped to ease an otherwise conflicting sets of interests, values, and objectives. The pan-American movement in the 1920s and 1930s is perhaps the best example of this cooperation that at the time was historically unique in international affairs.Trade ReviewIn this volume, one can find the most important documents capturing two hundred years of U.S.–Latin American relations, with sources relating to both politics and economics. There are also primary sources relating to contemporary problems, such as the antidrug war and regional cooperation, each preceded by a comprehensive introduction. -- Jadwiga Kiwerska, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznn

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo Standard Turkic C–Type Reduplications
Book SynopsisKamil Stachowski examines partial interfixed reduplications in standard Turkic languages. Generally no longer productive, this type of reduplication serves primarily to intensify adjectives and adverbs. Unlike previous texts, his book considers the phenomenon comparatively across twenty modern languages and is based on complete collections of examples. It approaches the subject from a diachronic perspective, combining etymological, historical-comparative, and quantitative methodology.Trade ReviewStachowski presents the basic semantics of Turkic reduplications, from the expected intensification to other interesting features. His work has a clear and logical structure, and he displays an excellent understanding of the material, presenting the phenomenon of reduplication against a wider and not just Turkic background. Numerous tables, graphs, and maps substantially facilitate comprehension." -- Rafal Molencki, University of Silesia, Katowice

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo History, Memory, Trauma in Contemporary British
Book SynopsisHistory, memory and trauma as well as their complex interrelations have been lying at the centre of interdisciplinary academic debates since the end of the previous century. These are also themes with which contemporary writers and other artists are increasingly preoccupied in their work. History, Memory, Trauma in Contemporary British and Irish Fiction is an attempt at analysing the relationship between history, memory and trauma in the selected novels of Pat Barker, Sebastian Barry, Kazuo Ishiguro and John Banville. The author examines the notion of memory in a variety of contexts: collective memory in the historical novels of Barker and Barry, individual memory as a foundation of the sense of self in the novels of Banville and Ishiguro, and traumatic memory in the novels of Barry and Ishiguro. By applying the theoretical framework of trauma studies to the work of those renowned writers, History, Memory, Trauma offers new interpretations of their novels. The author demonstrates that contemporary fiction moves beyond mere representation of trauma and engages the reader in the role of co-witness who enables the process of working through trauma.

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo Cereals of Antiquity and Early Byzantine Times –
Book SynopsisThe present book entitled Cereals of antiquity and early Byzantine times. Wheat and barley in medical sources (second to seventh centuries AD), penned by Maciej Kokoszko, Krzysztof Jagusiak and Zofia Rzeznicka, aims at a detailed analysis of the evolution of dietetic doctrines and an assessment of the value of medical sources for historians of food. In order to achieve the goal, the authors have analysed select medical sources composed between the 2nd and the 7th centuries AD, i.e., treatises published from the moment of canonizing dietetic doctrine by Galen up to the composition of the medical encyclopaedia compiled by Paul of Aegina and the publication of the anonymous work entitled De cibis. Within this timeframe, there appeared a number of works which, following the assumptions of the Hippocratic school, contain a cohesive discourse devoted to the role of food in maintaining and restoring human health, thus allowing us to trace the development of diets during the period in question.In order to conduct their research, the authors have selected a food group, namely cereals and cereal products, starting with common and durum wheat (and including in the research hulled wheats, i.e. einkorn, emmer and spelt) and finishing with barley, since all the above-mentioned crops constituted the basis of diet of the majority of peoples inhabiting the Mediterranean. The researches have shown the history of the said cereals in the area around the Mediterranean Sea, singled out the most important products obtained therefrom, demonstrated their dietetic evaluations as presented in the sources, determined the place of cereals in cuisine and outlined their role in medical procedures.The final result of the analyses proves stability of the dietetic doctrines throughout the researched period, explains intricacies of the conceptual system developed by the medical doctors to describe cereal and other foodstuffs, defines recipes, methods and technologies profited from in food processing and outlines the place of cereal substances (both as independent medicinal agents or as ingredients included in composed medicaments) in popular medical treatment methods.Trade ReviewThe book was preceded by multi-faceted analytical research, whose results were successively presented both in numerous academic papers and lectures as well as at national and international conferences. These, and especially the interdisciplinary international symposia, formed opportunity to gather enough critical feedback, commentaries and evaluations of the project to introduce required modifications in the research. Thereby the concept of the book resulted from a polemic interaction, which necessarily improved the final output. As a result a synthetic volume has been composed, which constitutes a comprehensive presentation of the issues which have not been subject to such a manifold exposition so far. It should be noted that the book has been written by three authors, each specializing in the field for a long time, and thereby having acquired much expertise. -- Piotr Kochanek, KUL

Uniwersytet Jagiellonski, Wydawnictwo Statistical Profiles of Women′s and Men′s Status
Book Synopsis?This book follows multiple threads. It discusses the concept of gender, which is an essential category of analysis in the social sciences. It then focuses on women's and men's professional, political, and social circumstances, such as the workplace and time management and their activities in the research and development and patent sectors. These categories delineate the scope of "innovative gender" as a critical tool of analysis through which we can appreciate with greater depth the role of gender in the innovation process.Trade ReviewThis book initiates a novel approach to a widely discussed concept in the literature. It integrates multilevel and interdisciplinary research exploring differences in the statistical profiles of women and men and their effects on innovation for national economies within the European Union. -- Pawel Kawalec, John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin
