He went on to make profound contributions to issues of folktale, folk speech, genre, cultural memory, biblical and Jewish folklore, African folklore, and historiography, and gain renown around the world as a leading figure in folklore studies. In Contexts of Folklore, leading lights of folklore studies from many corners of the globe honor Ben-Amos by presenting original studies inspired by his insights. Their essays will assuredly be lasting, provocative statements of folklore research that will energize future generations of folklorists and other scholars of culture and communication.

''This little gem offers the reader an overview of the various practices that form part of the ever increasing field of audiovisual translation (AVT) and makes brave inroads into the less glamorous but definitely needed areas of theory and research. Covering a wide range of topics in research in AVT, and admittedly questioning «whether a universal methodology for audiovisual translation research is feasible», this volume theorises about the nature of AVT, helps to frame some of the current trends, and points to potentially new research avenues. The style is reader friendly and to the point; a most welcome addition to translation studies.''

In this book the authors present and, more importantly, give their own assessment of judicial decisions interpreting the Criminal Code provisions currently in force on self-defence and the transgression of its limits. The authors have critically verified the empirical material of 88 Supreme Court, 194 Court of Appeal and 34 District Court decisions in which an adjudicating body ruled on the merits with reference to the components and functions of self-defence or the transgression of its limits. The ultimate aim of this study is to answer the question if the present wording of relevant provisions is optimal, especially as judicial decisions are dominated by certain interpretative directions of these provisions that have an overwhelming impact on positions taken by courts in matters of detail. The present study, therefore, will not only reflect on legal dogmatics, by analysing the law as it stands now and the way it works in practice, but will also attempt to suggest amendments to the law.

Exemplar. - Moins de dix ans après la dissolution du pacte de Varsovie, trois pays postcommunistes, la Hongrie, la Pologne et la République tchèque, deviennent membres de l'OTAN. Comment expliquer ce passage du statut d'ennemi à celui d'allié ? En analysant la rénovation institutionnelle de l'Alliance atlantique, et plus particulièrement le bricolage institutionnel qui entoure la fabrique d'un processus de négociations, et les usages politiques de l'histoire qui émaillent les relations entre l'OTAN, les pays d'Europe centrale et la Russie, cet ouvrage apporte des clés d'analyse renouvelées sur le premier élargissement post-guerre froide. Il déconstruit de ce fait des étiquettes en montrant que l'atlantisme des pays d'Europe centrale a été une construction politique qui résulte tant de jeux politiques nationaux que des passés douloureux, et montre également que l'OTAN n'a pas été réellement une institution socialisatrice. Fondé sur un corpus inédit d'entretiens conduits avec des hommes politiques et des diplomates hongrois, polonais et tchèques, ce livre éclaire sous un nouveau jour les dynamiques postcommunistes. À l'heure où la politique d'élargissement de l'OTAN connaît un certain ralentissement, où la dimension libérale de l'Alliance est questionnée par l'autoritarisme de certains membres, et, où la relation entre l'espace euro-atlantique et la Russie est conflictuelle, il est utile de revenir sur la décennie fondamentale des années 1990 qui a façonné le monde d'après-guerre froide et a posé les bases du nouvel ordre européen.

This volume sets out to investigate queer literature and cinema, exploring in particular the intersection of issues of gender and Lusophone culture. The essays collected here present individual case studies within a queer theoretical framework, examining the ways in which queer identities are constructed and addressed through different types of cultural production. More specifically, they consider Portuguese and Lusophone socio-cultural contexts and the representation of gender in popular culture, as well as the centrality of literature and cinema in the subversion of heteronormative social norms.

This book contains texts prepared by representatives of various branches of law, philosophers and dogmatists who link a general reflection on law with caselaw. This ensures that the presented approaches are versatile and insightful, and that the addressed issues vary, the most important of which is the oeuvre of the Polish jurisprudence and its contribution to building a modern state and legal theories. The context exceeds beyond a simple report on or presentation of this oeuvre and, in many cases, it only refers to it. The primary aim of this book is to determine, as follows: 1) the source (at least the potential source) of modernist solutions in the Polish law, 2) the realness of the modernist character of the said source and 3) the refection of these modernist solutions in the currently binding Polish law.

Ce volume collectif interroge les modalités d'élaboration, de diffusion et de perception des souvenirs historiques dans les milieux contre-révolutionnaires français, italiens et espagnols à l'époque contemporaine. Si la tradition historiographique contre-révolutionnaire, en tant que système de pensée, est aujourd'hui assez bien connue, elle ne doit pas dissimuler la multiplicité des usages militants du passé, à l'échelle individuelle ou collective. Pour ne pas rompre le « fil de l'histoire » et transmettre le flambeau aux nouvelles générations, les contre-révolutionnaires ont tout à la fois exalté la légitimité historique des princes et valorisé le comportement exemplaire de ceux qui ont su leur rester fidèles dans l'adversité. La construction de généalogies, d'armoriaux ou d'histoires familiales permet de conjurer la rupture révolutionnaire ou « l'usurpation » dynastique, tandis que les pèlerinages, auprès des princes en exil, sur des tombeaux ou sur des sites de bataille, se doublent souvent d'une collecte de souvenirs et de reliques. Les contributions réunies dans ce volume témoignent de l'émergence, à l'échelle européenne, d'une véritable contre-culture historique, fondée sur la célébration de la fidélité, érigée en vertu politique fondamentale face à « l'opportunisme libéral » et à la « subversion révolutionnaire ». Tout autant qu'aux supports livres, monuments ou musées , une grande attention a été portée aux acteurs de cette « histoire en blanc », leurs circulations et leur insertion dans les réseaux contre-révolutionnaires de leur temps.

Broschur. Zustand: Wie neu. xii, 281 Seiten : Illustrationen ; 23 cm, 434 g Tadelloses, sauberes Exemplar. The historiography of Irish theatre has largely been dependent on in-depth studies of the play-text as the definitive primary source. This volume explores the processes of engaging with the documented and undocumented record of Irish theatre and broadens the concept of evidential study of performance through the use of increasingly diverse sources. The archive is regarded here as a broad repository of evidence including annotated scripts, photographs, correspondence, administrative documents, recordings and other remnants of the mechanics of producing theatre. It is an invaluable resource for scholars and artists in interrogating Ireland's performance history. This collection brings together key thinkers, scholars and practitioners who engage with the archive of Irish theatre and performance in terms of its creation, management and scholarly as well as artistic interpretation. New technological advances and mass digitization allow for new interventions in this field. The essays gathered here present new critical thought and detailed case studies from archivists, theatre scholars, historians and artists, each working in different ways to uncover and reconstruct the past practice of Irish performance through new means.

This book presents a collection of studies by top scholars on leading cases from twelve different jurisdictions defining the legal status of unborn human life. The cases under study pertain to three distinctive cultural and constitutional systems: Latin American Constitutional Courts and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, European Constitutional Courts and the European Court on Human Rights, as well as Common Law jurisdictions. With a special conclusion by Professor John Finnis, drawing together the many treads of the individual chapters into a comprehensive whole, this book lays the basis for further comparative study of the legal and moral reasoning underlying judicial decisions which either recognize or deny legal personhood and/or equal dignity to unborn human beings. Robert P. George McCormick, Professor of Jurisprudence and Director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions, Princeton University:"Pilar Zambrano and William L. Saunders have done a great service by giving us a thorough compilation of the law of various jurisdictions concerning the status and rights of the unborn. They have brought together an impressive group of scholars and obtained from them work of the highest intellectual caliber." Prof. Carlos Massini-Correas, University of Mendoza and University of Buenos Aires:"In undertaking the very unusual task of analyzing both the legal and the moral horizon of interpretation underlying leading judicial decisions, this book represents an exceptional shortcut to the bulk of constitutional and philosophical arguments in favor of the enhancement of the value of unborn human life to the status of a right. This mixed perspective of study allows us to avoid the usual fallacy of both sides of the abortion debate, to overlook either its moral or its legal framework."

While anti-European forces are still raging, pro-Europeans seem impotent and deprived of a strong, clear and convincing alternative. This book is an attempt to fill that void: reacting to the anti-European wave, it also outlines a strong criticism both of the current EU and of its advocates. Far from the Europeanist defence of the status quo, it proposes an original and radical project of European sovereignty. Its message is both critical and propositional. This book is therefore original in its method, approach and content. It distinguishes itself from most of the literature on the subject by going beyond the narrow cleavage opposing mainstream anti- and pro- Europeans. In this general polemic, anti-European arguments usually promote a return to sovereignty at the national level, while pro-Europeans justify the existing EU configuration and its so-called "sharing" or "division" of sovereignty. Despite being clearly in favour of a deeper European integration in some fields, Sophie Heine refuses to throw away the classical concept of sovereign power. Relying on a rich literature and deploying a theoretical and strategic argument, she proposes to rehabilitate this notion at a supra-national level while avoiding the common traps of national sovereignty. This allows her to propose a redefinition of European federalism connected to her broader liberal approach.

Clientelistic Warfare analyzes the relationship between Colombian paramilitaries and the State in the period 1982-2007. Despite the attention that the paramilitaries demand, due to both the magnitude of their crimes and their specifi cities, understanding the nature of this interaction has proven to be complex. They were not a homogeneous, hierarchical force, but a protean network of highly localistic coalitions and units. Based on new and extensive empirical evidence, this book shows that even in diverse circumstances there was a set of basic mechanisms that established a link between the State and paramilitary factions, which marked the trajectory of the latter. These mechanisms, in turn, were permanently mediated by political institutions and the highly clientelistic Colombian polity. Therefore, without a close reading of the Colombian clientelistic politics and statehood, it is not possible to understand the interaction between the two entities.

The volume focuses on the application of Peirce's semeiotic as a methodological tool to establish a common field for interdisciplinary research. Contributors from the fields of biology, architecture, logic, esthetics and neuroscience, among others, work on diverse research problems, unified by the idea of transcending the dyadic limitations of disciplinary restrictions and applying Peirce's triadic method, and the structure and process of sign relations of the particular problem that has to be solved. The result is an invigorating example of methodological plasticity wherein the reader acquires an understanding of scientific observation within the complex universe of semeiosis relations.

The general aim of this book is to contribute to a better understanding of metonymy, a phenomenon which still, despite the current upsurge in scholarly attention, remains puzzling in some respects. The theoretical framework of this book is provided by the school of thought commonly known as Cognitive Linguistics. The first part of the book analyses and develops various hypotheses concerning the nature of metonymy advanced in the literature to date. It presents numerous arguments in favour of the conceptual rather than purely linguistic basis of metonymy and shows that metonymy is a ubiquitous phenomenon not only in language but above all in thought. The second part contains a thorough analysis of the constraints to the scope of metonymy and discusses the differences between metonymy and other forms of so-called figurative language. The third part is devoted to the role and importance of metonymy in communication and focuses on the creative functions of metonymy, which have received surprisingly little scholarly attention to date, such as euphemism, vague language, and humour. The fourth part of this book is centred on some problematic issues concerning the distinction between metonymy, metaphor, and synecdoche. Contents: CHAPTER I: Metonymy: The name and definition 7; CHAPTER 2 Metonymy: The scope 53; CHAPTER 3; Metonymy: The functions 107; CHAPTER 4 Metaphor, metonymy, and synecdoche: Problematic issues 129 ISBN 9781788743457 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 284.

The initiative was born in a research group from the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Three researchers from Italy, Serbia and the United Kingdom joined the group later. The authors believe that the book offers relatively fresh perspectives on the topic. Firstly, the authors provide an interdisciplinary perspective by approaching the concept of inclusion on three horizons, which they understand as mutually compatible and co-dependent: pedagogical approaches, social contexts and theoretical reflections. Secondly, they offer a specific geographical perspective. The authors' desire is to highlight specific perspectives that are not common in the 'mainstream' literature: perspectives from Central and Southern Europe.

In these crooked times of chaotic and contradictory discourses in every social sphere, from politics to food production, "ideology" has become the buzzword to represent some solid structure on which to cling or under which to recoil, in an effort to understand reality. But how this structure is built and what it ultimately upholds this is a primary focus of the Human Sciences. In this book, the author argues that in the Human Sciences, from its founders to contemporaries, a common premise is apparent: the fundamental property of all human-social reality is its character as something constructed. Through a vast set of analyses and reflections of his own, and by philosophers, psychologists, psychoanalysts, sociologists, anthropologists, neuroscientists and linguists, the author shows how this premise, applied, which he coins as critical constructionist theory, constitutes the fundamental theory of the Human Sciences. The book also traces how the main development of this theory gave rise to critical deconstructionism philosophical, sociological, and anthropological as an analytical procedure in contemporary studies and research, valid in discussions on culture, ethics, human rights, gender, sexuality and ethnicities. Understanding the role ideology plays in this construction, then, is key to liberation from oppressive conceptual structures of reality. This book exposes that role.

These texts provide a rich perspective on the formation of Christian identity in the early church. The primary sources investigated are the four earliest known treatises on prayer in Christian history, written by Clement, Origen, Tertullian and Cyprian in the beginning of the third century. Prayer and identity have both individual and collective expressions, and theological treatises reveal an interplay between these phenomena. The book examines the relational character of Christian prayer: how prayer establishes a relationship between the individual and God; how other social relations are reinforced by prayer in direct and indirect ways; and how individual Christians are connected to their own self in prayer.

Over the centuries, drama has been an influential and imaginative medium for presenting, analysing and offering ways of resolving real or fictional battles. This volume provides readers with a timely study of inter-generational conflicts and crises as seen through the eyes of male and female British and Irish playwrights from the medieval period to the twenty-first century. The contributions suggest that at the heart of inter-generational discord lies various crises between (the) age(d) and youth or, more generally, the idea of what is 'old' and 'new'. The interaction and co-existence of age and youth in their embodied, symbolic or conceptual forms is the topic of this volume. The collection is built around the words 'age(d)'/'young', which denote both the biological age of the characters and the more conceptual potential of these terms. Ultimately, the contributors to this collection of essays analyse not only the idea of inter-generationality within selected dramatic works but also inter-generational conflicts seen in clashes of cultures, artistic visions, concepts and aesthetic idea(l)s.

Cet ouvrage a pour objectif d'enrichir la connaissance dans un domaine particulier des relations internationales et stratégiques : les stratégies nucléaires. Pour contribuer à cette connaissance, il réunit les contributions de jeunes chercheurs et chercheurs confirmés, issus d'horizons différents, qui invitent à repenser les trajectoires historiques et intellectuelles des stratégies et des armes nucléaires dans les relations internationales. Ce volume interroge la période des origines, celle des premières pensées sur le sujet, en particulier celle de Lucien Poirier, à qui cet ouvrage rend hommage. Ce retour aux sources de la pensée stratégique nucléaire, à l'époque de la guerre froide, permet d'envisager les continuités et les ruptures à l'uvre depuis, dans les relations internationales post-guerre froide, notamment sur les questions liées à la diffusion et à la virtualisation de l'arme nucléaire ainsi qu'au désarmement nucléaire. Ce livre, en proposant une réflexion originale et fondamentale sur la place des armes nucléaires dans les théories des relations internationales, invite aussi à ouvrir un débat constructif sur leurs trajectoires passées, présentes et à venir dans les relations internationales proprement dites.
