Zustand: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear. Genres and Functions of the Short Story in North America. Can fiction teach us how to live? This study offers a fresh take on the North American short story, exploring how the genre has engaged in the construction and circulation of 'life knowledge'. Echoing the resurgence of short story scholarship in recent years, it thus contributes a genre-focused perspective to the growing field of 'literature and knowledge' studies. Drawing on stories from the late 19th century to the present by authors such as Henry James, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Eudora Welty, Junot Díaz, and Alice Munro, Michael Basseler examines how knowledge about life and how to live it is generically constituted and, vice versa, how literary genres such as the short story are embedded in broader cultural frameworks of knowledge production. 274 Seiten, broschiert (American Culture Studies; Vol. 24/transcript 2019).

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Given a proliferation of crises from climate change, public health emergencies, and new threats of global war, engaging the future and probing new conjunctures of inquiry is becoming increasingly urgent. This volume enlists the cultural imagination and the study of culture specifically, asking how they can contribute to 'bouncing forward' from a sometimes overwhelming sense of constant change and uncertainty, rather than 'bouncing back' to some previous status quo as in conventional resilience-thinking. How do future concerns mobilize transformations with regard to objects of study, critical methodologies, new forms of interdisciplinarity, or questions of research and/as activism With a conceptual focus on narrativity, scenarios, and transformations in the study of culture, the volume addresses this question through a variety of productive lenses such as resilience-thinking, 'imagineering', or notions of time and risk criticism. In essence, the volume takes a two-pronged approach, demonstrating 1) how future narratives, scenarios, and transformations figure within various research objects and 2) how future challenges prompt a rethinking and recalibration of (new) conceptual and methodological apparatuses in the study of culture.
