Empire and beyond / Antonio Negri

Public ISBD Titre : Empire and beyond Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Antonio Negri, Auteur ; Ed Emery, Traducteur Editeur : Polity Press Année de publication : 2008 Importance : IX-239 p. Format : 23 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7456-4048-8 Note générale : Trad. de "Movimenti nell'impero" Langues : Anglais Langues originales : Italien Catégories : HISTOIRE & GEOGRAPHIE:940 L'histoire generale du nouveau monde Mots-clés : Imperialism  Political science-Philosophy Résumé : Today, Empire no longer has an outside: it no longer tolerates realities external to itself. Hence every war cannot but be a civil war, an internal battle, a domestic strife. But if the enemy is always within, militarization is part and parcel of normalization and every war necessarily appears as a policing operation. And yet has the sun really set on the old materialist dream of transforming social conflict into the beginnings of liberation? In the cracks of Empire one can discern an emergent capacity to remould the world. The anti-Empire is represented by the multitude, the collection of impassioned and desiring individuals whose potential for action offers the best hope for a better world. In this book Antonio Negri explains the key concepts and methods which he and Michael Hardt have used to analyse Empire and the new forms of power and counter-power that are shaping and reshaping our world today. Through five introductory lectures and several supporting texts Negri constructs a democratic discourse on globalization, renews the premises of a materialist analysis of social and political life and offers some glimpses of the future.

Cardenio Between Cervantes and Shakespeare / Roger Chartier

Public ISBD Titre : Cardenio Between Cervantes and Shakespeare : The Story of a Lost Play Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Roger Chartier, Auteur Editeur : Polity Press Année de publication : 2013 Importance : 256 p. Format : 22.5 x 15.5 x 1.9 centimetres (0.38 kg) ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7456-6185-8 Langues : Anglais Résumé : How should we read a text that does not exist, or present a play the manuscript of which is lost and the identity of whose author cannot be established for certain? Such is the enigma posed by Cardenio a play performed in England for the first time in 1612 or 1613 and attributed forty years later to Shakespeare (and Fletcher). Its plot is that of a novella inserted into Don Quixote, a work that circulated throughout the major countries of Europe, where it was translated and adapted for the theatre. In England, Cervantes novel was known and cited even before it was translated in 1612 and had inspired Cardenio. But there is more at stake in this enigma. This was a time when, thanks mainly to the invention of the printing press, there was a proliferation of discourses. There was often a reaction when it was feared that this proliferation would become excessive, and many writings were weeded out. Not all were destined to survive, in particular plays for the theatre, which, in many cases, were never published. This genre, situated at the bottom of the literary hierarchy, was well suited to the existence of ephemeral works. However, if an author became famous, the desire for an archive of his works prompted the invention of textual relics, the restoration of remainders ruined by the passing of time or, in order to fill in the gaps, in some cases, even the fabrication of forgeries. Such was the fate of Cardenio in the eighteenth century. Retracing the history of this play therefore leads one to wonder about the status, in the past, of works today judged to be canonical. In this book the reader will rediscover the malleability of texts, transformed as they were by translations and adaptations, their migrations from one genre to another, and their changing meanings constructed by their various publics. Thanks to Roger Chartier s forensic skills, fresh light is cast upon the mystery of a play lacking a text but not an author.

The Author's Hand and the Printer's Mind / Roger Chartier

Présentation : ill. Format : 23 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7456-5602-1 Note générale : Notes bibliogr. Index Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:421 writing system : phonetics of standard english Mots-clés : Livres  Histoire  Écrivains  Édition Résumé : In Early Modern Europe the first readers of a book were not those who bought it. They were the scribes who copied the author s or translator s manuscript, the censors who licensed it, the publisher who decided to put this title in his catalogue, the copy editor who prepared the text for the press, divided it and added punctuation, the typesetters who composed the pages of the book, and the proof reader who corrected them. The author s hand cannot be separated from the printers mind. This book is devoted to the process of publication of the works that framed their readers representations of the past or of the world. Linking cultural history, textual criticism and bibliographical studies, dealing with canonical works - like Cervantes Don Quixote or Shakespeare s plays - as well as lesser known texts, Roger Chartier identifies the fundamental discontinuities that transformed the circulation of the written word between the invention of printing and the definition, three centuries later, of what we call 'literature'.

Cosmopolitanism and Culture / Nikos Papastergiadis

Public ISBD Titre : Cosmopolitanism and Culture Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nikos Papastergiadis, Auteur Editeur : Polity Press Année de publication : 2012 Importance : 240 p. Format : 22.8 x 15.4 x 1.3 centimetres (0.36 kg) ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7456-5383-9 Langues : Anglais Résumé : Today, more than at any other point in history, we are aware of the cultural impact of global processes. This has created new possibilities for the development of a cosmopolitan culture but, at the same time, it has created new risks and anxieties linked to immigration and the accommodation of strangers. This book examines how the images of the terrorist and the refugee, by being dispersed across almost all aspects of social life, have resulted in the production of ambient fears , and it explores the role of artists in reclaiming the conditions of hospitality. Since 9/11 contemporary artists have confronted the issues of globalization by creating situations in which strangers can enter into dialogue with each other, collaborating with diverse networks to forms new platforms for global knowledge. Such knowledge does not depend upon the old model of establishing a supposedly objective and therefore universal framework, but on the capacity to recognize, and mutually negotiate, situated differences. From artworks that incorporate new media techniques to collective activism Papastergiadis claims that there is a new cosmopolitan imaginary that challenges the conventional divide between art and politics. Through the analysis of artistic practices across the globe this book extends the debates on culture and cosmopolitanism from the ethics of living with strangers to the aesthetics of imagining alternative visions of the world. Timely and wide-ranging, this book will be essential reading for students and scholars in sociology and cultural studies and will be of interest to anyone concerned with the changing forms of art and culture in our contemporary global age.
