A S. Byatt: Essays on the Short Fiction

A S. Byatt: Essays on the Short Fiction

Celia M. Wallhead

Verlag Peter Lang
2007
nidottu
A.S. Byatt has always alternated novels with shorter fiction. Different literary and linguistic models are applied here to analyse how she guides her readers' understanding of vital, complex issues within her perennial themes of life, creativity and death. This study focuses on certain stories from the six volumes of short fiction she has produced to date. The two novellas of Angels and Insects are scrutinised for their intertextuality, while stories from Sugar and Other Stories, The Matisse Stories, The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye, Elementals: Stories of Fire and Ice and Little Black Book of Stories are novel discussions of creativity and related gender issues.

Guignol's Band II

Guignol's Band II

Louis-Ferdinand Celine

Rowohlt Verlag GmbH
1997
sidottu
?Guignol's Band II? spielt in dem kriminellen Milieu Londons im Ersten Weltkrieg und setzt den Roman ?Guignol's Band? fort, der deutsch 1985 vorgelegt wurde. 
 ?Guignol's Band II? ist eine wilde Orgie und ein frenetisches Bacchanalienfest, auf dem eine vierzehnjährige Jungfrau in einem Pub vergewaltigt wird, ein mythomanischer Derwisch und Dämonenbeschwörer auf dem Picadilly Circus deliriert und vom Gas wahnsinnig gewordene Erfinder sich wechselseitig die Haut abziehen ? eine wahrhaftige ?Zeit in der Hölle?, in der jede Episode außer Kontrolle gerät, sich ins Rasende steigert und in Katastrophe abstürzen muß. Aber gegen die Schrecken des Alptraums hält sich, wie in keinem anderen Roman C?lines, das Lachen. Lange Sequenzen sind von einer großen Komik ? und erfüllt von Sehnsucht.

China's projected image - A structured, focused comparison in the United States of America

pokkari
Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - Political Systems - General and Comparisons, grade: VG, Uppsala University (Department of Peace and Conflict Research), course: Political Science - Diplomacy, language: English, abstract: This study provides an examination about China's projected image and explores how China implements various concepts and channels for image building activities. It also displays the reasons and motivation points of image projection as a national policy. This national policy gives a reference to Chinese grand strategy which is embodied in Chinese Soft Power. Bearing this in mind; the study provides an explanation about the sources of projected image. In order to follow the right track, the study primarily establishes an internal examination within China thereafter it explores the projection process within the U.S case. This approach enables to understand the changing U.S views of China and also pursues to find the dynamics of U.S public perception. In regards to the analysis; the study examines the Chinese efforts which try to build a favourable image in the minds of Americans. This process leads the study to explore the tools for the projected adjustment. It displays that; which implementations took place to affect the U.S society. Furthermore, the study gives the reasons of Chinese PR and PD engagements which indicate the possible rewards for Chinese Power. This dimension targets to re-design the public perceptions which are also embodied in Beijing's charm offensive. Thus China aims to fill the gap between her comprehensive power capacity and the concept of soft power.

A striking historical novel about an ordinary young British woman sent to uncover a network of spies and war criminals in post-war Germany that will appeal to fans of The Huntress and Transcription.World War II has just ended, and Britain has established the Control Commission for Germany, which oversees their zone of occupation. The Control Commission hires British civilians to work in Germany, rebuild the shattered nation and prosecute war crimes. Somewhat aimless, bored with her job as a provincial schoolteacher, and unwilling to live with her overbearing mother any longer, thirtysomething Edith Graham applies for a job with the Commission--but she is also recruited by her cousin, Leo, who is in the Secret Service. To them, Edith is perfect spy material...single, ordinary-looking, with a college degree in German. Cousin Leo went to Oxford with one of their most hunted war criminals, Count Kurt von Stavenow, who Edith remembers all too well from before the war. He wants her to find him.Intrigued by the challenge, Edith heads to Germany armed with a convincing cover story: she's an unassuming Education Officer sent to help resurrect German schools. To send information back to her Secret Service handlers in London, Edith has crafted the perfect alter ego, cookbook author Stella Snelling, who writes a popular magazine cookery column. She embeds crucial intelligence within the recipes she collects. But occupied Germany is awash with other spies, collaborators, and opportunists, and as she's pulled into their world, Edith soon discovers that no one is what they seem to be. The closer she gets to uncovering von Stavenow's whereabouts--and the network of German civilians who still support him--the greater the danger. With a unique, compelling premise, Miss Graham's Cold War Cookbook is a beautifully crafted and gripping novel about daring, betrayal, and female friendship.

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

Making a successful video game is hard. Even games that are well-received at launch may fail to engage players in the long term due to issues with the user experience (UX) that they are delivering. That’s why makers of successful video games like Fortnite and Assassin’s Creed invest both time and money perfecting their UX strategy. These top video game creators know that a bad user experience can ruin the prospects for any game, regardless of its budget, scope, or ambition. The game UX accounts for the whole experience players have with a video game, from first hearing about it to navigating menus and progressing in the game. UX as a discipline offers guidelines to assist developers in creating the optimal experience they want to deliver, including shipping higher quality games (whether indie, triple-A, or "serious”) and meeting business goals -- all while staying true to design vision and artistic intent. Yet, UX is more than a discipline, it's a mindset that places players at the center of the game development process, no matter the type of game (from gamification to hardcore games to the metaverse), the platform (PC, consoles, mobile, or VR), or the technology (including AI and blockchain). At its core, UX is about understanding the gamer’s brain: understanding human capabilities and limitations to anticipate how a game will be perceived, the emotions it will elicit, how players will interact with it, and how engaging the experience will be. This book is designed to equip readers of all levels, from student to professional, with cognitive science knowledge and user experience guidelines and methodologies. These insights will help readers identify the ingredients for successful and engaging video games, empowering them to develop their own unique game recipe more efficiently, while providing a better experience for their audience all the while minding for inclusion, accessibility, and ethics.
