The Architect and the Artists

The Architect and the Artists

Bridget Hackshaw

Massey University Press
2021
sidottu
A beautiful and important book about the remarkable collaboration between the modernist architect James Hackshaw (a member of the famous Group Architects), the painter Colin McCahon, and the then young sculptor Paul Dibble on twelve New Zealand buildings--from churches to houses. Drawing on interviews with James Hackshaw before his death and on the McCahon archives, this book brings into the light a body of work and a collaboration that has been little known or examined, even by old McCahon hands. Richly illustrated with Hackshaw's plans, McCahon's drawings, letters and journal entries, and contemporary images of the surviving buildings and artworks; expert essays by Peter Simpson, Julia Gatley, Christopher Dudman, Peter Shaw, and Alexa Johnston complete the package.

Iris Murdoch

Iris Murdoch

Bridget Clarke

Cambridge University Press
2025
pokkari
Iris Murdoch is well-known for her moral philosophy, especially for the light it sheds on the inner life. This Element focuses on the political significance and contours of Murdoch's ethics. Its chief aim is to illuminate the affinities between Murdoch's concept of the individual and the Enlightenment ideal of a society in which people live together as free equals. There are five sections in this Element. Section 1 provides context for the discussion. Section 2 compares what Murdoch calls the liberal and naturalistic outlooks and argues that she develops a modified version of the naturalistic outlook to better support an Enlightenment sensibility. Sections 3 and 4 examine the three main features of Murdoch's 'naturalized' individual. Section 3 considers the individual's uniqueness and transcendence. Section 4 considers the individual's knowability through love. Section 5 offers some concluding remarks.

Environmental Rights for Future Generations

Environmental Rights for Future Generations

Bridget Lewis

Cambridge University Press
2025
sidottu
This book presents readers with a new theory and practice of international human rights law that is designed to improve its protection of the environmental rights of future generations. Arguing that international law is currently unable to safeguard future generations from foreseeable environmental harm, Bridget Lewis proposes that the law needs to be reformed in the interests of achieving intergenerational justice. The book draws on different theories of intergenerational responsibility to articulate a fresh approach, revising both substantive principles of environmental rights and procedural rules of admissibility and standing. It looks at several case studies to explore how the proposed new approach would apply in relation to contemporary environmental challenges like fracking, deep seabed mining, nuclear energy, decarbonisation and geoengineering.

Choreographing the North

Choreographing the North

Bridget Cauthery

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
sidottu
Choreographing the North examines 11 contemporary dance pieces that perform northern culture, landscape, folklore, and ideas of "North."The choreographers, from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Luxembourg, Australia, and Argentina, translate their real or imagined journeys to the North for stage and/or screen. This book examines the ways Indigenous subjects and subjectivities have been diminished and/or distorted and considers how that diminishment has fuelled misrepresentation both inside and outside the field of contemporary dance. Where Indigenous presence is represented in dances about the North, it is as discarnate storytellers or “everyman” pastoral figures against backdrops of ice and snow. Indigenous presence is there but it is romanticized, caricatured, flattened. Using these works as moving texts Cauthery argues that, in many regards, these dances are colonizing acts that either ignore or erase the land and people upon which they are based. In analyzing and deconstructing these dances, this book acknowledges the land- and culture-based inheritances embedded in and performed through the works themselves.This study will be of great interest to students and scholars in dance studies, theatre and performance studies, and cultural studies, as well as those interested in environmental psychology, human geography, and the expanding field of Arctic humanities.
