Do you find yourself missing out on those "in the moment" moments? Do you find yourself continually making sure you are "photo-ready?" Do you find days seem to zoom by with nothing to show for?Are you affected by what people post, like, or comment on when it comes to your social media presence?Is clout something that matters to you? Chances are if you have said yes to any of the following, you may be spending more than the average amount of time online and on social media. ​There is a fine line between a healthy dose and an overdose. In this book, I share with you the research that looks at the ​emotional, psychological, and physical impact social media anxiety and addiction have, as well as how to take a step back from being connected. Remember, we have one life to live, and if we continue to live through our smart devices, it does not matter how many photos, videos, or tags we get, because we won't have lived it. We will have let life pass us by, and we would have allowed those precious moments to be a memory.Who is this book for?● Someone eager to learn about what it means to be addicted to social media.● Someone who wants to step back and regain control over their devices.● Someone who wants to detox their brain ● Someone who feels anxious about being separated from their social mediaaccounts. It may seem bizarre to think an inanimate object could control us, but look around you, and how many people do you see glued to their phone? Stop and smell the roses with my book; I am sure you will find a moment of peace, clarity, and freedom from your smart device.If you are ready to take control, turn the page and start your journey

Gaining traction happens when you become aligned or in rhythm with your understanding and your circumstances. The cause and effect of your life is 'In-tune' with the field of your self-aware purposeful thoughts. Your progress is identifiable and measurable; it is inside of you not outside of you.You also may discover your own self-empowerment; an empowerment indeed to create your life within and activate the 'Atomic' reactor dormant within you that pulses with creational radiance in which to manifest your reality out of. Breakthroughs of understanding this life; the here and now, are completely possible.
The Theatrical Public Sphere

The Theatrical Public Sphere

Christopher B. Balme

Cambridge University Press
2014
sidottu
The concept of the public sphere, as first outlined by German philosopher Jürgen Habermas, refers to the right of all citizens to engage in debate on public issues on equal terms. In this book, Christopher B. Balme explores theatre's role in this crucial political and social function. He traces its origins and argues that the theatrical public sphere invariably focuses attention on theatre as an institution between the shifting borders of the private and public, reasoned debate and agonistic intervention. Chapters explore this concept in a variety of contexts, including the debates that led to the closure of British theatres in 1642, theatre's use of media, controversies surrounding race, religion and blasphemy, and theatre's place in a new age of globalised aesthetics. Balme concludes by addressing the relationship of theatre today with the public sphere and whether theatre's transformation into an art form has made it increasingly irrelevant for contemporary society.
The Origins of Isaiah 24–27

The Origins of Isaiah 24–27

Christopher B. Hays

Cambridge University Press
2019
sidottu
Isaiah 24-27 has been an enduring mystery and a hotly contested text for biblical scholars. Early scholarship linked its references to the dead rising to the New Testament. These theories have remained influential even as common opinion moderated over the course of the twentieth century. In this volume, Christopher B. Hays situates Isaiah 24-27 within its historical and cultural contexts. He methodically demonstrates that it is not apocalyptic; that its imagery of divine feasting and conquering death have ancient cognates; and that its Hebrew language does not reflect a late composition date. He also shows how the passage celebrates the receding of Assyrian power from Judah, and especially from the citadel at Ramat Rahel near Jerusalem, in the late seventh century. This was the time of King Josiah and his scribes, who saw a political opportunity and issued a peace overture to the former northern kingdom. Using comparative, archaeological, linguistic, and literary tools, Hays' volume changes the study of Isaiah, arguing for a different historical setting than that of traditional scholarship.
The Globalization of Theatre 1870–1930

The Globalization of Theatre 1870–1930

Christopher B. Balme

Cambridge University Press
2019
sidottu
Between 1895 and 1922 the Anglo-American actor and manager, Maurice E. Bandmann (1872–1922) created a theatrical circuit that extended from Gibraltar to Tokyo and included regular tours to the West Indies and South America. With headquarters in Calcutta and Cairo and companies listed on the Indian stock exchange, his operations represent a significant shift towards the globalization of theatre. This study focuses on seven key areas: family networks; the business of theatrical touring; the politics of locality; repertoire and publics; an ethnography of itinerant acting; legal disputes and the provision of theatrical infrastructure. It draws on global and transnational history, network theory and analysis as well as in-depth archival research to provide a new approach to studying theatre in the age of empire.

Catullus and Roman Comedy

Catullus and Roman Comedy

Christopher B. Polt

Cambridge University Press
2022
pokkari
In the past century, scholars have observed a veritable full cast of characters from Roman comedy in the poetry of Catullus. Despite this growing recognition of comedy's allusive presence in Catullus' work, there has never been an extended analysis of how he engaged with this foundational Roman genre. This book sketches a more coherent picture of Catullus' use of Roman comedy and shows that individual points of contact with the theatre in his corpus are part of a larger, more sustained poetic program than has been recognized. Roman comedy, it argues, offered Catullus a common cultural vocabulary, drawn from the public stage and shared with his audience, with which to explore and convey private ideas about love, friendship, and social rivalry. It also demonstrates that Roman comedy continued to present writers after the second century BCE with a meaningful source of social, cultural, and artistic value.

Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness

Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness

Christopher B. Barnett

Routledge
2016
nidottu
Søren Kierkegaard wrote that Pietism is 'the one and only consequence of Christianity'. Praise of this sort - particularly when coupled with Kierkegaard's significant personal connections to the movement in Christian spirituality known as Pietism - would seem to demand thorough investigation. And yet, Kierkegaard's relation to Pietism has been largely neglected in the secondary literature. Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness fills this scholarly gap and, in doing so, provides the first full-length study of Kierkegaard's relation to the Pietist movement. First accounting for Pietism's role in Kierkegaard's social, ecclesial, and intellectual background, Barnett goes on to demonstrate Pietism's impact on Kierkegaard's published authorship, principally regarding the relationship between Christian holiness and secular culture. This book not only establishes Pietism as a formative influence on Kierkegaard's life and thinking, but also sheds fresh light on crucial Kierkegaardian concepts, from the importance of 'upbuilding' to the imitation of Christ.

Addiction, Modernity, and the City

Addiction, Modernity, and the City

Christopher B.R. Smith

Routledge
2015
sidottu
Examining the interdependent nature of substance, space, and subjectivity, this book constitutes an interdisciplinary analysis of the intoxication indigenous to what has been termed "our narcotic modernity." The first section – Drug/Culture – demonstrates how the body of the addict and the social body of the city are both inscribed by "controlled" substance. Positing addiction as a "pathology (out) of place" that is specific to the (late-)capitalist urban landscape, the second section – Dope/Sick – conducts a critique of the prevailing pathology paradigm of addiction, proposing in its place a theoretical reconceptualization of drug dependence in the terms of "p/re/in-scription." Remapping the successive stages or phases of our narcotic modernity, the third section – Narco/State – delineates three primary eras of narcotic modernity, including the contemporary city of "safe"/"supervised" consumption. Employing an experimental, "intra-textual" format, the fourth section – Brain/Disease – mimics the sense, state or scape of intoxication accompanying each permutation of narcotic modernity in the interchangeable terms of drug, dream and/or disease. Tracing the parallel evolution of "addiction," the (late-)capitalist cityscape, and the pathological project of modernity, the four parts of this book thus together constitute a users’ guide to urban space.
