The ArtsJanuary 2019From Perversion to Purity
The stardom of Catherine Deneuve
by Lisa Downing, Sue Harris
Catherine Deneuve is indisputably one of the world's most celebrated actresses, both in her native France and throughout the world. Her career has spanned five decades during which she has worked with the most significant of French auteurs, as well as forging partnerships with international directors such as Bunuel and Polanski. The Deneuve star persona has attained such iconic status that it can now symbolise the very essence of French womanhood and civic identity. In this wide-ranging and authoritative collection of essays by a selection of international film academics and writers, the Deneuve persona is scrutinised and illuminated. Beyond the glamorous iconographic status of Yves Saint Laurent's muse, and the epitome of sexual inviolability, Deneuve's status as actress is foregrounded. The book will be essential reading for students and lecturers in star studies.

November 2009Bright Star
Die Geschichte von John Keats und Fanny Brawne
by John Keats, Adolf Girschick, Christa Schuenke, Wulf Teichmann, Jane Campion
Mit ihrem Oscar-gekrönten Meisterwerk Das Piano begeisterte Jane Campion ein Millionenpublikum. In ihrem Film Bright Star erzählt sie von der großen Liebe zwischen John Keats und Fanny Brawne. Es ist eine Liebe, die zum Scheitern verurteilt scheint: Zu groß sind die Unterschiede zwischen der Schneiderin und dem hochbegabten Dichter. Auch Fannys Mutter und Johns Mentor sind gegen die Verbindung. Meist voneinander getrennt, bleibt den Liebenden nur ihr inniger Briefwechsel, um einander nahe zu sein. Das Buch zum Film versammelt die Briefe von Keats an Fanny und die Gedichte, die er ihr widmete. In ihrem Vorwort erzählt Jane Campion die Geschichte dieser unvergänglichen Liebe. Farbige Fotos aus dem Film illustrieren den Band.

Sleep and its spaces in Middle English literature
Emotions, ethics, dreams
by Megan Leitch
Middle English literature is intimately concerned with sleep and the spaces in which it takes place. In the medieval English imagination, sleep is an embodied and culturally determined act. It is both performed and interpreted by characters and contemporaries, subject to a particular habitus and understood through particular hermeneutic lenses. While illuminating the intersecting medical and moral discourses by which it is shaped, sleep also sheds light on subjects in favour of which it has hitherto been overlooked: what sleep can enable (dreams and dream poetry) or what it can stand in for or supersede (desire and sex). This book argues that sleep mediates thematic concerns and questions in ways that have ethical, affective and oneiric implications. At the same time, it offers important contributions to understanding different Middle English genres: romance, dream vision, drama and fabliau.

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2022Civic identity and public space
Belfast since 1780
by Dominic Bryan, Sean J. Connolly, John Nagle
Civic identity and public space, focussing on Belfast, and bringing together the work of a historian and two social scientists, offers a new perspective on the sometimes lethal conflicts over parades, flags and other issues that continue to disrupt political life in Northern Ireland. It examines the emergence during the nineteenth century of the concept of public space and the development of new strategies for its regulation, the establishment, the new conditions created by the emergence in 1920 of a Northern Ireland state, of a near monopoly of public space enjoyed by Protestants and unionists, and the break down of that monopoly in more recent decades. Today policy makers and politicians struggle to devise a strategy for the management of public space in a divided city, while endeavouring to promote a new sense of civic identity that will transcend long-standing sectarian and political divisions.
