        In Strange Countries: Middle English Literature and its Afterlife

        Essays in memory of J. J. Anderson

        by Anke Bernau, David Matthews

        These essays by senior scholars in medieval studies celebrate the career of J.J. Anderson, editor, critic, and co-founder of the Manchester Medieval Literature and Culture series, who taught in medieval studies at the University of Manchester for forty years. The essays are rooted in medieval literature but frequently range beyond the confines of the Middle Ages. They reflect the breadth of Anderson's own scholarly interests, especially in drama and Arthurian literature. There is a particular focus on Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Pearl, poems which preoccupied him throughout his scholarly life. There are also new reconsiderations of La?amon's Brut, Mirk's Festial, the Passion plays, and the manuscripts of the Pore Caitif. Moving beyond the traditional purview of medieval literature, several contributors trace the afterlives of medieval themes in later literature. These essays include a consideration of the twinned trajectories of the medieval heroes Robin Hood and King Arthur from medieval literature to modern television, a comparison of La?amon's Brut and Tennyson's Idylls of the King, and a recreation of the Bishop Blase procession which took place in industrial Bradford. Contributors are Rosamund Allen, Ralph Elliott, Alexandra Johnston, Stephen Knight, Peter Meredith, Susan Powell, Gillian Rudd, Alan Shelston, and Kalpen Trivedi. ;

        Postwar Black British Writing

        by James Procter

        Explores some of the key venues of black British literary and cultural production across the postwar period: bedsits and basements; streets and cafes; train stations and tourist landscapes; the suburbs and the city; the north and south. Pursues a 'devolving' landscape in order to consider what an analysis of 'dwelling' might contribute to the travelling theories of diaspora discourse and asks what happens when we 'situate' literatures of movement and migration. Offers fresh readings of work by some of the key literary figures of the postwar years, for example, Salman Rushdie, Hanif Kureishi, Meera Syal, Linton Kwesi Johnson. Contextualises writings alongside photography, painting, and film to consider their relationship to broader shifts in the politics of black representation over the past fifty years. Offers sustained anaysis of many of the texts reproduced in Procter's anthology Writing black Britain 1948-98 ( MUP, 2000) making an ideal companion to the earlier book. ;

        Der Blick aus der Ferne

        by Claude Lévi-Strauss, Anita Albus, Hans-Horst Henschen, Joseph Vogl

        Der Sache nach bildet die vorliegende Sammlung von Essays den dritten und abschließenden Teil der Strukturalen Anthropologie, mit der Claude Lévi-Strauss im Jahr 1958 die Wissenschaften vom Menschen auf eine neue Grundlage stellte. Sie erweitern und vertiefen seine Analysen von Verwandtschaftssystemen und sozialen Organisationen, von Sprache, Mythologie und Ritus. Doch handelt es sich um weit mehr als den Schlußstein eines erfolgreichen theoretischen Unternehmens. Lévi-Strauss' Entscheidung, den Band nicht Strukturale Anthropologie III, sondern Der Blick aus der Ferne zu nennen, betont diejenigen Partien des Buches, in denen der Blick des Ethnologen sich wendet, um die in der Ferne gewonnenen Parameter auf unsere eigene Gegenwart zu beziehen – die höchst folgenreiche Wendung hin zu einer Ethnologie der eigenen Kultur. Abgerundet wird der Band durch einige Reflexionen zur Malerei und einen farbigen Bildteil mit Werken von Anita Albus.

        Spanish cinema 1973–2010

        Auteurism, politics, landscape and memory

        by Edited by Maria M. Delgado and Robin Fiddian

        This collection offers a new lens through which to examine Spain's cinema production following the isolation imposed by the Franco regime. The seventeen key films analysed in the volume span a period of thirty-five years that have been crucial in the development of Spain, Spanish democracy and Spanish cinema. They encompass different genres (horror, thriller, melodrama, social realism, documentary), both popular (Los abrazos rotos/Broken Embraces, Vicky Cristina Barcelona) and more select art house fare (En la ciudad de Sylvia/In the City of Sylvia, El espíritu de la colmena/Spirit of the Beehive) and are made in English (as both first and second language), Basque, Castilian, Catalan and French. Offering an expanded understanding of 'national' cinemas, the volume explores key works by Guillermo del Toro and Lucrecia Martel alongside an examination of the ways in which established auteurs (Almodóvar, José Garci, Carlos Saura) and the younger generations of filmmakers (Cesc Gay, Amenábar, Bollaín) have harnessed cinematic language towards a commentary on the nation-state.
