Love Magic and Control in Premodern Iberian Literature

Love Magic and Control in Premodern Iberian Literature

Veronica Menaldi

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
nidottu
This book explores the complexity of Iberian identity and multicultural/multi-religious interactions in the Peninsula through the lens of spells, talismans, and imaginative fiction in medieval and early modern Iberia. Focusing particularly on love magic—which manipulates objects, celestial spheres, and demonic conjurings to facilitate sexual encounters—Menaldi examines how practitioners and victims of such magic as represented in major works produced in Castile. Magic, and love magic in particular, is an exchange of knowledge, a claim to power and a deviation from or subversion of the licit practices permitted by authoritative decrees. As such, magic serves as a metaphorical tool for understanding the complex relationships of the Christian with the non-Christian. In seeking to understand and incorporate hidden secrets that presumably reveal how one can manipulate their environment, occult knowledge became one of the funnels through which cultures and practices mixed and adapted throughout the centuries.

Law, Social Movements and the Politics of the Commons

Law, Social Movements and the Politics of the Commons

Veronica Pecile

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
This book reinterprets the notion of the commons by tracing how it has been mobilised in the aftermath of economic crisis. In a period of widespread activism against the privatisation of resources and services implemented through austerity policies, the reconceptualisation of property as a non-absolute and non-individualistic institution has attracted a great deal of attention. Drawing on the case of the Italian South, and in the wake of economic crisis, this book offers a critical analysis of the struggle for the commons. More specifically, as it details how discourses, legal tools and policies based on disciplinary ideas of the commons are deployed in the neoliberal restructuring of societies, the book considers how conflicting ideas of the commons express different, and often clashing visions, of urban space. In this regard, moreover, it shows how law plays a central, albeit ambivalent, role in the struggle for the commons: as both a governmental technique to regulate urban space and its residents and as an emancipatory tactic to advance non-proprietary visions of ownership.This book will be of interest to scholars in socio-legal studies, property law, legal sociology and politics, as well as others with more general interests in the critical potential of contemporary social movements.

Sweden’s Research Aid Policy

Sweden’s Research Aid Policy

Veronica Brodén Gyberg

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024
nidottu
Science and technology have long been considered key for development, problem solving and education in low-income countries, and Sweden has been at the forefront of efforts in this area, as one of the first countries to formalize research aid.This book analyses how the Swedish Agency for Research Cooperation with Developing Countries (Sarec) and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) have worked to promote science in low-income countries. In doing so, the book tackles challenging questions around whose knowledges and capacities count, who sets the research agenda, how knowledge resources are distributed, and how complex donor–recipient relationships serve both to address and inflate these issues. Through a discursive analysis of policy material and interviews with former directors at Sarec and Sida as well as other key persons, the book traces how perceptions of the relationship between research and development have shifted over the last five decades.Pointing to why long-term collaboration is necessary in order to contribute significantly to capacity building, as well as highlighting more general tensions relating to the production of knowledge, Sweden’s Research Aid Policy: The Role of Science in Development will be a valuable resource for advanced students and researchers of foreign aid, development cooperation and the history of science and technology.

The Vinyl Revival, Gender, and Collecting Aesthetics

The Vinyl Revival, Gender, and Collecting Aesthetics

Veronica Skrimsjö

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
sidottu
The book considers record collecting and vinyl consumption in the 21st century and in the context of the vinyl revival. The book highlights gender, and how gender disparity is expressed in vinyl communities.Veronica Skrimsjö considers vinyl consumerism and collecting and how the collector identifies themselves within the socio-political environment of the Global North, with a particular focus on gender. The book includes considerations of Record Store Day, DIY and DI-together cultures, as well as the historic context needed to evaluate record collecting in the twenty-first century.The work is aimed at both an academic and a general readership, and as such strikes a more informal tone. Personal experiences are emphasised throughout because vinyl consumers are not a homogenous group, and it is only via personal experiences that we can understand the complexity of consumption. The personal also helps make the content more relatable, which is crucial as old stereotypes helped distance the collector for the everyday consumer. Readers will benefit from a different perspective on record collecting and consumptions as the book highlights active, creative consumption, and provides an in-depth, innovative analysis of how gender inequality is constructed within this context.

We cannot walk with confidence if we cannot see.The Word is the light to the path which we need to follow.Without reading the Word for ourselves, we are walking in darkness.We all need to have a personal relationship with God.So we can know our purpose and live our lives accordingly.The church is for fellowship and worship, but that is not enough to only go to church.We will live the church's way and not necessarily God's way.God wants us to read His Word personally to develop a relationship with Him and gain wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.We cannot experience the goodness of Jesus and enjoy the joy of our salvation if we do not know the Word and live by it.It's the weapon we use against the enemy to defend ourselves when being attacked.The Word of God has everything we could ever hope for to help us in life.It satisfies every need we could ever have.Jesus took care of everything before He left.So we are well-equipped to live our purpose.It took me a while to get it, but I thank God it is never too late for Him to help us as he never gives up on us. I am now living in the light of His Word.It is such a joy to have a personal relationship with Jesus, my Savior and King.
