Queering Memory and National Identity in Transcultural U.S. Literature and Culture

Queering Memory and National Identity in Transcultural U.S. Literature and Culture

Christopher W. Clark

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2021
nidottu
This book examines the queer implications of memory and nationhood in transcultural U.S. literature and culture. Through an analysis of art and photography responding to the U.S. domestic response to 9/11, Iraq war fiction, representations of Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay, and migrant fiction in the twenty-first century, Christopher W. Clark creates a queer archive of transcultural U.S. texts as a way of destabilizing heteronormativity and thinking about productive spaces of queer world-building. Drawing on the fields of transcultural memory, queer studies, and transculturalism, this book raises important questions of queer bodies and subjecthood. Clark traces their legacies through texts by Sinan Antoon, Mohamedou Ould Slahi among others, alongside film and photography that includes artists such as Nina Berman and Hasan Elahi. In all, the book queers forms of cultural memory and national identity to uncover the traces of injury but also spaces of regeneration.

Mythologie für Dummies

Mythologie für Dummies

Christopher W. Blackwell; Amy Hackney Blackwell

Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH
2022
nidottu
Mythologie ist spannender als jeder Krimi, grausamer als jeder Horrorfilm und leidenschaftlicher als jeder Liebesroman! Wie hieß er doch noch gleich, der Meeresgott bei den Griechen? Was waren bloß die zehn Aufgaben des Herkules? Antworten auf solch typische Fragen nach dem Motto "Wie war das nochmal?" finden Sie in diesem wunderbaren Nachschlagewerk, das zum Schmökern einlädt. Der Schwerpunkt des Buches liegt auf der griechischen und römischen Mythologie, aber auch nordeuropäische Gestalten wie König Artus und Beowulf, weniger bekannte Sagen aus Ägypten und Asien und die Mythen lateinamerikanischer Völker wie den Maya, Azteken und Inkas kommen nicht zu kurz.

1 के बदले 100 का रिटर्न देने वाले स्टॉक्स और उन्हें कैसे खोजें यह कृति 100-बैगर्स के बारे में है। ये ऐसे स्टॉक्स हैं, जो प्रत्येक 1 डॉलर के निवेश पर 100 डॉलर का रिटर्न देते हैं। इसका मतलब है कि 10,000 डॉलर का निवेश 1 मिलियन डॉलर में बदल जाता है। क्रिस मेयर उन्हें खोजने में आपकी मदद कर सकते हैं। यह सफलता की बेहद असंभव संभावना प्रतीत होता है, जो चौंका देने वाली खोज की तरह लगता है, लेकिन जब मेयर ने अतीत के 100-बैगर्स का अध्ययन किया, तो निश्चित पैटर्न सामने आए। 100-बैगर्स में, आप 100-बैगर्स की प्रमुख विशेषताओं के बारे में जानेंगे कि कोई भी ऐसा क्यों कर सकता है। यह वास्तव में हर व्यक्ति का दृष्टिकोण है। आपको एमबीए या वित्त डिग्री की आवश्यकता नहीं है। आपको बस कुछ बुनियादी वित्तीय अवधारणाओं की आवश्यकता है, यानी कई सहारे या तकनीकें, जो अपने स्टॉक्स और निवेश से अधिक प्राप्त करने में आपकी मदद कर सकती हैं। किताब में हमेशा व्यावहारिकता को रेखांकित किया गया है, इसलिए महत्वपूर्ण बिंदुओं को समझाने में मदद के लिए कई कहानियाँ और उपाख्यान समाहित किए गए हैं। यदि आप अपने स्टॉक्स से अधिक लाभ प्राप्त करना चाहते हैं, तो आपको यह किताब पढ़नी चाहिए। भले ही आपको कभी भी 100-बैगर न मिलें, लेकिन यह किताब बड़े विजेता बनने में आपकी मदद करेगी और आपको हारने वाले और निष्क्रिय शेयरों से दूर रखेगी, जो कहीं नहीं जाते।

The Unspeakable Level

The Unspeakable Level

Christopher W Mayer

Institute of General Semantics
2025
pokkari
"The unspeakable level is Korzybski's term for that swirl of events language cannot fully capture. It is all that 'is.' Our abstractions-names, descriptions, etc.-often hide and obscure this unspeakable level. In this volume, the author looks at various ways to get behind these abstractions. Korzybski's Razor is one such tool, which knocks many lofty sounding terms off their pedestals. Another chapter explores the nature of polarities, drawing on insights from Meister Eckhart, Pseudo-Dionysius, Carl Jung and many others. Subsequent chapters, through the lens of Korzybski's general semantics, explore various ways of revealing; insights from dreams, Indian sages, Hermes Trismegistus, Christian mystics, Gurdjieff, alchemy, tarot and more. This brisk volume boldly pushes you to explore the boundaries of language, reach that unspeakable level and see the world with fresh eyes"

Grundkurs Informelle Logik: Begründen Und Argumentieren Im Alltag Und in Den Wissenschaften Übersetzt Von Thomas Keutner

Christopher W. Tindale

Brill Mentis
2013
nidottu
Der Gegenstand der Informellen Logik ist das Hervorbringen, die Analyse und die Kritik von Begr ndungen und Argumenten im Alltag und in den Wissenschaften. Hierf r bedient sie sich eines Instrumentariums, das nicht nur der klassischen Schlusslehre, sondern ebenso auch der Rhetorik und Argumentationslehre entstammt. Daher liefert sie sowohl eine Lehre der Schl sse und Fehlschl sse, als auch eine Charakterisierung des Argumentierenden und seines Auditoriums. Das Werkzeug der Informellen Logik wird vorgef hrt am Beispiel von Techniken zur Identifizierung von Thesen, Begr ndungen und Argumenten. Eine Betrachtung der Unterscheidungskriterien guter und schlechter Argumente erlaubt sodann die Bewertung von Begr ndungen wie auch die Produktion starker eigener Argumente. Eine paradigmatische Analyse gesellschaftlich-politischer und wissenschaftlicher Argumentationstypen und -strategien veranschaulicht den weiten Anwendungsbereich der Informellen Logik. Jedem Kapitel sind zahlreiche bungsaufgaben angeh ngt, den Abschluss dieser Einf hrung bildet die Analyse eines Fallbeispiels f r politisches Argumentieren und stellt so eine Zusammenf hrung der zuvor pr sentierten Instrumente dar.

Fallacies and Argument Appraisal

Fallacies and Argument Appraisal

Tindale Christopher W.

Cambridge University Press
2007
pokkari
Fallacies and Argument Appraisal presents an introduction to the nature, identification, and causes of fallacious reasoning, along with key questions for evaluation. Drawing from the latest work on fallacies as well as some of the standard ideas that have remained relevant since Aristotle, Christopher Tindale investigates central cases of major fallacies in order to understand what has gone wrong and how this has occurred. Dispensing with the approach that simply assigns labels and brief descriptions of fallacies, Tindale provides fuller treatments that recognize the dialectical and rhetorical contexts in which fallacies arise. This volume analyzes major fallacies through accessible, everyday examples. Critical questions are developed for each fallacy to help the student identify them and provide considered evaluations.

The Negotiated Reformation

The Negotiated Reformation

Close Christopher W.

Cambridge University Press
2009
sidottu
Utilizing evidence from numerous imperial cities, this book offers an explanation for the spread and survival of urban reform during the sixteenth century. By analyzing the operation of regional political constellations, it reveals a common process of negotiation that shaped the Reformation in the Holy Roman Empire. It reevaluates traditional models of reform that leave unexplored the religious implications of flexible systems of communication and support among cities. Such networks influenced urban reform in fundamental ways, affecting how Protestant preachers moved from city to city, as well as what versions of the Reformation city councils introduced. This fusion of religion and politics meant that with local variations, negotiation within a regional framework sat at the heart of urban reform. The Negotiated Reformation therefore explains not only how the Reformation spread to almost every imperial city in southern Germany, but also how it survived imperial attempts to repress religious reform.

Privacy Preserving Data Mining

Privacy Preserving Data Mining

Jaideep Vaidya; Christopher W. Clifton; Yu Michael Zhu

Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
2005
sidottu
Data mining has emerged as a significant technology for gaining knowledge from vast quantities of data. However, concerns are growing that use of this technology can violate individual privacy. These concerns have led to a backlash against the technology, for example, a "Data-Mining Moratorium Act" introduced in the U.S. Senate that would have banned all data-mining programs (including research and development) by the U.S. Department of Defense. Privacy Preserving Data Mining provides a comprehensive overview of available approaches, techniques and open problems in privacy preserving data mining. This book demonstrates how these approaches can achieve data mining, while operating within legal and commercial restrictions that forbid release of data. Furthermore, this research crystallizes much of the underlying foundation, and inspires further research in the area. Privacy Preserving Data Mining is designed for a professional audience composed of practitioners and researchers in industry. This volume is also suitable for graduate-level students in computer science.

Symbolic Gestures and the Generation of Global Social Control

Symbolic Gestures and the Generation of Global Social Control

Dawn Rothe; Christopher W. Mullins

Lexington Books
2006
sidottu
The recently established International Criminal Court (ICC) has been touted as a major breakthrough in the potential control of genocide, terrorism, and war crimes. This book explores the historical origins of the court and provides and examination of the basic structure and functioning of the court. Rothe and Mullins offer a detailed critique of procedural, conceptual, and practical elements of the ICC through the lens of critical criminological theory and research and identify several problems with the design and proposed implementation of the ICC. The theoretical analysis employed shows how the Court is but a small step forward in the control of crimes by states and state leaders due to its limited scope., myopic conception of crime, jurisdictional scope, and minimal compulsory power. Certain to appeal to criminology and international studies scholars, this volume strives to outline suggestions for strengthening the court.
