        Laurent Cantet

        by Martin O'Shaughnessy

        Laurent Cantet is of one France's leading contemporary directors. In a series of important films, including Human Resources, Time Out, Heading South, The Class and Foxfire, he takes stock of the modern world from the workplace, through the schoolroom and the oppressive small town to the world of international sex tourism. His films drive the hidden forces that weigh on individuals and groups into view but also show characters who are capable of reflection and reaction. If the films make their protagonists rethink their place in the world, they also challenge the positions of the viewer and the director. This is what makes them so worthy of study. Combining a fine eye for detail with broad contextual awareness, this book gives an account of all Cantet's works, from the early short films to the major works. Martin O'Shaughnessy is a leading international writer on French cinema,especially in film and politics.

        Julien Duvivier
        Individual film directors, film-makers
        February 2017

        Julien Duvivier

        by Series edited by Robert Ingram, Ben McCann

        This book is the first ever English-language study of Julien Duvivier (1896-1967), once considered one of the world's great film filmmakers. It provides new contextual and analytical readings of his films that identify his key themes and techniques, trace patterns of continuity and change, and explore critical assessments of his work over time. His career began in the silent era and ended as the French New Wave was winding down. In between, Duvivier made over sixty films in a long and at times difficult career. He was adept at literary adaptation, biblical epic, and film noir, and this groundbreaking volume illustrates in great detail Duvivier's eclecticism, technical efficiency and visual fluency in works such as Panique (1946) and Voici le temps des assassins (1956). It will particularly appeal to scholars and students of French cinema looking for examples of a director who could straddle the realms of the popular and the auteur.

        Art, ethnography and the life of objects

        Paris, c.1925–35

        by Julia Kelly, Marsha Meskimmon, Shearer West, Tim Barringer

        In the 1920s and 1930s, anthropology and ethnography provided new and striking ways of rethinking what art could be and the forms which it could take. This book examines the impact of these emergent disciplines on the artistic avant-garde in Paris. The reception by European artists of objects arriving from colonial territories in the first half of the twentieth century is generally understood through the artistic appropriation of the forms of African or Oceanic sculpture. The author reveals how anthropological approaches to this intriguing material began to affect the ways in which artists, theorists, critics and curators thought about three-dimensional objects and their changing status as 'art', 'artefacts' or 'ethnographic evidence'. This book analyses texts, photographs and art works that cross disciplinary boundaries, through case studies including the Dakar to Djibouti expedition of 1931-33, the Trocadéro Ethnographic Museum, and the two art periodicals Documents and Minotaure. Through its interdisciplinary and contextual approach, it provides an important corrective to histories of modern art and the European avant-garde. ;

        Corporate and white-collar crime in Ireland

        A new architecture of regulatory enforcement

        by Joe McGrath, Rob Kitchin

        This book explores the emergence of a new architecture of corporate enforcement in Ireland. It is demonstrated that the State has transitioned from one contradictory model of corporate enforcement to another. Traditionally, the State invoked its most powerful weapon of state censure, the criminal law, but was remarkably lenient in practice because the law was not enforced. The contemporary model is much more reliant on cooperative measures and civil orders, but also contains remarkably punitive and instrumental measures to surmount the difficulties of proving guilt in criminal cases. Though corporate and financial regulation has become an area of significant interest for academics, researchers and those with an interest in corporate affairs, this sudden surge of interest lacks a tradition of scholarship or any deep empirical and contextual analysis in Ireland. This book provides that foundation. It is likely to stimulate an extensive conversation on corporate regulation and governance in Ireland. It is also likely to provide a platform for researchers further afield with an interest in comparative study with Ireland. ;

        Joan of Arc

        La pucelle

        by Rosemary Horrox, Simon Maclean, Craig Taylor

        This sourcebook collects together for the first time in English the major documents relating to the life and contemporary reputation of Joan of Arc. Also known as La Pucelle, she led a French Army against the English in 1429, arguably turning the course of the war in favour of the French king Charles VII. The fact that she achieved all of this when just a seventeen-year-old peasant girl highlights the magnitude of her achievements and also opens up other ways of looking at her story. For many, Joan represents the voice of ordinary people in the fifteenth century; the victims of high politics and warfare that devastated France. Her story ended tragically in 1431 when she was put on trial for heresy and sorcery by an ecclesiastical court and was burned at the stake. This book shows how the trial, which was organised by her enemies, provides an important window into late medieval attitudes towards religion and gender, as Joan was effectively persecuted by the established Church for her supposedly non-conformist views on spirituality and the role of women. Presented within a contextual and critical framework, this book encourages scholars and students to rethink this remarkable story. It will be invaluable reading for those working in the fields of medieval society and heresy, as well as the Hundred Years' War. ;

        Tony Garnett

        by Stephen Lacey, Jonathan Bignell, Sarah Cardwell, Steven Peacock

        Tony Garnett is the first book-length study of one of the most respected and prolific producers working in British television. From ground-breaking dramas from the 1960s such as Up the Junction and Cathy Come Home to the 'must see' series in the 1990s and 2000s such as This Life and The Cops, Garnett has produced some of the most important and influential British television drama. This book charts Garnett's career from his early days as an actor to his position as executive producer and head of World Productions. Drawing on personal interviews, archival research, contextual analysis and selected case studies, Tony Garnett examines the ways in which Garnett has helped to define the role of the producer in British television drama. Arguing that Garnett was both a key creative and political influence on the work he produced and an enabler of the work of others, the book traces his often combative relationships with broadcasting institutions (especially the BBC). Additionally, the study discusses the films he made for the cinema and considers some of the ways in which Garnett's experiments in film technology – 16 mm in the 1960s, digital video in the 1990s – have shaped his creative output. Tony Garnett will be of interest to all levels of researchers and students of British television drama, media and film. ;

        Studien zur Interpretation der fortschreitenden Industriegesellschaft

        by Wolfgang Schluchter

        Schluchters vergleichende Untersuchung einiger paradigmatischer Sichtweisen der industriegesellschaftlichen Entwicklung zeigt, daß im Übergang vom Frühkapitalismus zum Spätkapitalismus, von der noch relativ unentwickelten zur fortgeschrittenen Industriegesellschaft, nicht nur das Problem bürokratischer Herrschaft immer mehr ins Zentrum sozialphilosophischer und sozialwissenschaftlicher Betrachtung rückt, sondern daß sich dabei auch die Problemfassung zunehmend radikalisiert.

        by Fritz Sack, Klaus Lüderssen, Gisela Schmitt-Klewer, Heinrich Geddert, Jörg Adrian Huber, Peter Frellesen, Annette Roellenbleck, Joachim Scherer

        Die Isolierung der Rechtswissenschaft von (anderen) Sozialwissenschaften stößt zunehmend auf Kritik. Relativ weit vorgeschritten ist die sozialwissenschaftliche und praxisbezogene Arbeit auf dem Gebiet der Kriminalpolitik. Die Erklärungen, die für »abweichendes Verhalten« gegeben werden, und die Reaktionen darauf offenbaren zugleich besonders deutlich, welches Verhältnis eine Gesellschaft ganz allgemein zu den Normen hat, die sie hervorbringt und die sie beherrschen.

        by Annette Seemann

        Christophine Reinwald (1757-1847) ist der Nachwelt als Schwester Friedrich Schillers bekannt. Sie war ihrem Bruder eine enge Vertraute und verständnisvolle Briefpartnerin und nahm großen Anteil an seinem literarischen Schaffen. Verheiratet mit dem wesentlich älteren Bibliothekar Wilhelm Reinwald führte sie ein gesellschaftlich relativ zurückgezogenes Leben. Neben ihren häuslichen Tätigkeiten widmete sie sich der Malerei und Zeichenunterricht, mit dem sie sich ein eigenes Einkommen sicherte. Auf der Basis bisher unveröffentlichten Archivmaterials zeichnet Annette Seemann das Porträt dieser außergewöhnlichen Frau.

        Wie das Gehirn Bewusstsein produziert

        by Benjamin Libet, Jürgen Schröder, Stephen M. Kosslyn

        Fast nichts ist uns Menschen so wichtig wie unser subjektives, bewußtes Innenleben – und doch wissen wir relativ wenig über seine Genese. Benjamin Libet gehört zu den Pionieren auf dem Gebiet der Bewußtseinsforschung und hat zahlreiche Experimente durchgeführt, die gezeigt haben, wie das Gehirn Bewußtsein produziert. In »Mind Time« präsentiert er erstmals eine eigene Deutung seiner berühmten »Libet-Experimente«, die die aktuelle Debatte über die Bedeutung der Neurowissenschaften für unser Menschenbild überhaupt erst angestoßen haben. Dieses Buch gehört zu den zentralen Arbeiten der modernen Hirnforschung.

        Angst vor der Wahrheit

        Ein Plädoyer gegen Relativismus und Konstruktivismus

        by Paul Boghossian, Jens Rometsch, Markus Gabriel

        Relativistische und konstruktivistische Wahrheits- und Erkenntnistheorien haben weite Teile der akademischen Welt erobert. Paul Boghossian diagnostiziert eine »Angst vor der Wahrheit«, überprüft diese Sichtweisen und macht ihre fundamentalen Schwächen sichtbar. Dabei konzentriert er sich auf drei verschiedene Lesarten der Behauptung, Erkenntnis sei nur sozial konstruiert und Wahrheit lediglich relativ, und widerlegt sie allesamt. Demgegenüber plädiert er dafür, dass wir unserem gesunden Menschenverstand folgen sollten: Die Welt ist, wie sie ist, unabhängig von unseren Meinungen über sie. Warum objektive Erkenntnis möglich ist und eine Wahrheit jenseits sozialer oder kultureller Perspektiven existiert, zeigt Boghossian in diesem brillanten Buch.
