Full text

Abstract:

This chapter aligns H.D.’s understanding of art as spiritual gift with recent queer critiques of kinship theory. H.D.’s posthumously published Notes on Thought and Vision in part reads as a treatise on kinship—on the way small-scale exchanges provide a basis for large-scale social formations. In identifying homoeroticism as the ground of Western culture and lending equal significance to masculine and feminine relationships, the text offers a queer alternative to Freud’s and Lévi-Strauss’s heteronormative models of kinship. Her World War II memoir, The Gift, also posthumously published, gives mythico-historical form to this alternative, drawing connections between her Moravian matrilineage, settler–Native relations, the current war, and her domestic life with Bryher. By further linking H.D.’s notion of the gift to developments in telecommunications, this chapter takes distance from atavistic, gynocentric, and elitist readings of her work while reconsidering the apparent contradiction between her limited publications and utopian ambitions for art.

Full text

Abstract:

This book traces the emergence of modern American poetry at the turn of the nineteenth century, locating it within the collective efforts of poets, editors, publishers, and readers involved in the New Verse movement between 1912 and 1925, rather than in the individual accomplishments of a few titanic figures. It examines how these individuals renewed American verse by taking over existing literary institutions and creating avant-garde alternatives, allowing them to elaborate a poetics of metropolitan modernity that embraced the very subjects that the genteel establishment had condemned as incorrigibly unpoetic. It also discusses the importance of the visual arts in this process, which paved the way for the New Poetry or the New Verse, two terms used in this book interchangeably rather than modernism.

Abstract:

The twelfth and final volume of the Collected Works contains chronological and alphabetical bibliographies of Winnicott’s work, a list of his published correspondence and biographies of each correspondent, tables of contents of all previously published books, several unrealized plans for anthologies of papers compiled by Winnicott, lists of new and edited work, lists of all the lectures and broadcasts he gave over his life, and a selection of drawings, squiggles and Winnicott’s creative signatures. The volume online also houses all the surviving audio material of Winnicott’s broadcasts and lectures, and features a further podcast by Anne Karpf discussing Winnicott’s career as a broadcaster. Several alternative radio scripts are also reproduced. The volume includes three discursive essays: Clare Winnicott’s ’DWW: A Reflection’ on Winnicott’s early life, and death; and essays by Volume 12 compiler and editor Robert Adès: reviewing the structure and arrangement of the Collected Works as a whole, and further notes on the contents of this volume.

Full text

Abstract:

During most of the twentieth century, the production of America’s consumer culture was centralized in New York to an extent unparalleled in the history of the modern United States. Within a few square miles were the headquarters of broadcast networks like NBC and CBS, the editorial offices of book and magazine publishers, major newspapers, and advertising and design agencies. Every day tens of thousands of writers, editors, artists, performers, technicians, secretaries, and other white-collar workers made advertisements, produced media content, and enhanced the appearance of goods in order to boost sales. While this center of creativity has often been portrayed as a smoothly running machine, within these offices many white-collar workers challenged the managers and executives who directed their labor. This book examines these workers and New York’s culture industries throughout the twentieth century. As manufacturers and retailers competed to attract consumers’ attention, their advertising expenditures financed the growth of enterprises engaged in the production of culture. With the shock of the Great Depression, employees in these firms organized unions to improve their working conditions; launched alternative media and cultural endeavors supported by public, labor, or cooperative patronage; and fought in other ways to expand their creative autonomy. As blacklisting and attacks on unions undermined these efforts after the Second World War, workers in advertising, design, publishing, and broadcasting found themselves constrained in their ability to respond to economic dislocations and to combat discrimination on the basis of gender and race in these fields of cultural production.

Full text

Abstract:

This book is the first collection of scholarly essays on alternate history in over a decade and features contributions from a mixture of major figures and rising stars in the field of science fiction studies. Alternate history is a genre of fiction which, although connected to the genres of utopian, dystopian and science fiction, has its own rich history and lineage. With roots in the writings of ancient Rome, alternate history matured into something close to its current form in the essays and novels of the nineteenth century. In more recent years a number of highly acclaimed novels have been published as alternate histories, by authors ranging from science fiction bestsellers to Pulitzer Prize-winning literary icons. The success and popularity of the genre is reflected in its success on television with original concepts being developed alongside adaptations of iconic texts. This important collection of essays seeks to redress an imbalance between the importance and quality of alternate history texts and the available scholarship and critical readings of texts, providing chapters by both leading scholars in the field and rising stars. The chapters in this book acknowledge the long and distinctive history of the genre whilst also revelling in its vitality, adaptability, and contemporary relevance, with many of the chapters discussing late-twentieth and early-twenty-first century contemporary fiction texts which have received little or no sustained critical analysis elsewhere in print.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter presents and justifies an alternative to a democratic coalition for authorizing humanitarian military intervention: a precommitment regime whereby a democratic, legitimate government at serious risk for being violently overthrown or that is vulnerable to a resurgence of ethno-national violence could enter into a contract with a state or coalition of states that would pre-authorize intervention under certain circumstances. Such a precommitment contract would be revocable at will by that government or any legitimate successor government. The details of the precommitment contract are spelled out and the case is made that such an arrangement is feasible and that it has the advantage of being an exercise of state sovereignty rather than a violation of it. This chapter is a modified version of a previously published paper co-authored with Robert O. Keohane.

Full text

Abstract:

Adjustment disorder is the most common psychiatric diagnosis in the armed forces, with a prevalence of 25–38% in those seen in the military psychiatric services, although PTSD has received far more attention in that setting. The military environment is characterized not just by the risk of exposure to major stressors during deployments, but also by a disciplined environment in which individuals lose some of their abilities to make choices regarding their environment or changes in their social milieu. It is also characterized by stoical attitudes that discourage displays of mental suffering. Young people, removed from the buffering effects of social support in their home environment, may not find alternative sources of confiding support readily available. Problem-solving and stress management strategies are the current main ingredients of management, and the condition carries a good prognosis for a return to work. However, there is a paucity of published research work.

Full text

Abstract:

Brain glucose uptake is impaired in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). A key question is whether cognitive decline could be delayed if this defect were at least partly corrected or bypassed. Ketones (or ketone bodies) such as beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate are the brain’s main alternative fuels. Several studies have shown that in mild-to-moderate AD, brain ketone uptake is similar to that of healthy age-matched controls. Published clinical trials show that increasing ketone availability to the brain via nutritional ketosis has modest benefits on cognitive outcomes in mild-to-moderate AD and in mild cognitive impairment. Nutritional ketosis can be safely achieved by a high-fat ketogenic diet or supplements providing medium chain triglycerides. Given the acute dependence of the brain on its energy supply and the ineffectiveness of current therapeutic strategies for AD consideration be given to correcting the underlying problem of deteriorating brain fuel supply during aging.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 analyzes Thomas Gage’s The English-American (1648), which urges Oliver Cromwell to invade New Spain (the “Western Design”). Gage, an English Catholic, lived in New Spain for twelve years, apostasized and returned to England as a Protestant minister, and published accounts of his travels. Gage’s works imagine an alternative history in which England, not Spain, backed Columbus’s explorations and prognosticates a worldwide English empire. He presents himself as a latter-day Columbus, offering the discovery of America to Cromwell in the role of King Henry VII. The coda takes a 1628 document preserved in the British National Archives as a starting point to consider how the Victorian Calendar of State Papers and especially one of its editors (and author of the children’s gift-book Hearts of Oak), W. Noel Sainsbury, made meaning of such materials, establishing “what the past will have meant” in the late nineteenth century and beyond.

Abstract:

The very first Sherlock Holmes story, A Study in Scarlet was also the first of Conan Doyle’s books to be published. His two creations, Holmes, the master of the science of detection and Watson, the great detective’s faithful companion, are immediately in fine form. The mystery itself, its solution plucked unerringly by Holmes from the heart of Victorian London, proves to be the inevitable consequence of a tragedy of the American West. The story is harrowing in its alternating hope and despair, although Holmes himself was later to complain that the book ‘produces much the same effect as if you worked a love-story or an elopement into the fifth proposition of Euclid’.

Abstract:

This chapter addresses the scientific underpinnings of several of Greg Egan's novels. It first considers the “subjective cosmology” of the universes depicted in Quarantine, Permutation City, and Distress, with their attendant quantum mechanical weirdness. Next, it tackles theories about how our own universe works as seen in the novels Diaspora, Schild's Ladder, and Incandescence. Finally, the chapter provides a rough overview of the alternate-world physics shown in the Orthogonal trilogy, with a particular focus on Clockwork Rocket and Eternal Flame, the two volumes published at the time of writing. It concludes with a section on Egan's use of scientific principles as metaphors for larger philosophical points.

Ferguson, Sam. Annie Ernaux. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198814535.003.0008.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter examines the place of the diary in the context of considerable growth in all forms of life-writing since the 1970s, through a reading of diaries published by Annie Ernaux. The diary has shared in the broader success of life-writing, but also remained marginal. This marginality is apparent within Ernaux’s overall writing project, broadly associated with the aims of autobiography, and even inimical to the diary. Her first diary publication, Journal du dehors, is positioned as an alternative to the journal intime by its focus on strangers and the outside world, but still points cautiously towards a diaristic authorial posture. Ernaux’s later publications of actual journaux intimes (including “Je ne suis pas sortie de ma nuit”) establish a complex relationship with Ernaux’s autobiographical works, acting as a supplement. L’Atelier noir, Ernaux’s writing diary (journal d’écriture), again acts as a supplement to her volume of complete works Écrire la vie.

Full text

Abstract:

The landmark paper discussed in this chapter is ‘Gene therapy for pain: Results of a Phase I clinical trial’, published by Fink et al. in 2011. In this study, the first of its kind, researchers studied the efficacy and safety of a modified herpes simplex virus (HSV) vector used to deliver PENK, which encodes proenkephalin, which is cleaved into the enkephalin peptides Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin, which induce analgesia by acting on opioid receptors. The development of the HSV vector was based in part on results studies in which adenovirus, adeno-associated virus, or non-viral vectors were used to overexpress genes. Overexpression of a variety of large molecules leads to a reduction in pain-related behaviour in animals. Gene therapy in the treatment of chronic pain seems to offer a promising alternative to systemic or highly invasive therapies. However, additional research is needed to determine the safety, effectiveness, and cost-efficiency of this approach.

Full text

Abstract:

The only true knowledge of our fellow-man is that which enables us to feel with him.' George Eliot's first published work consisted of three short novellas: 'The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton', 'Mr Gilfil's Love-Story', and 'Janet's Repentance'. Their depiction of the lives of ordinary men and women in a provincial Midlands town initiated a new era of nineteenth-century literary realism. The tales concern rural members of the clergy and the gossip and factions that a small town generates around them. Amos Barton only realizes how much he depends upon his wife's selfless love when she dies prematurely; Mr Gilfil's devotion to a girl who loves another is only fleetingly rewarded; and Janet Dempster suffers years of domestic abuse before the influence of an Evangelical minister turns her life around. These stories are remarkable for the tenderness with which Eliot portrays a bygone time of religious belief in a newly secular age, giving literary fiction an alternative language to religion and philosophy for the observation and understanding of human experience.

Full text

Abstract:

Handmade in Cuba is an in-depth examination of Ediciones Vigía, an artisanal press that published exquisite books crafted from everyday supplies during some of Cuba’s most dire economic periods. Vividly illustrated, this volume shows how the publishing collective responded to the nation’s changing historical and political situation from the margins of society, representing Cuban culture across the boundaries of race, age, gender, and genre. In this volume, poets and scholars reflect on the unique artistic work of Rolando Estévez, who oversaw the creation of over 500 handmade books and magazines between 1985 and 2014. They highlight the beautiful designs and unusual materials selected, including fabric, metals, wood, feathers, and discarded items. Through diverse perspectives, including an interview with Estévez himself, the essays showcase the unlimited inventive possibilities of books as objects, as sculptural pieces, and as installations. Even in the age of digital technology, Estévez generated enormous excitement and admiration for these hand-crafted books, and this volume offers the first inside view of this important alternative publishing space.

Full text

Abstract:

Graham always said he was one thing—an evangelist—but his detractors and supporters alike have dedicated countless words to arguing that he was many other things, too. In 1979 the journalist Marshall Frady published a sweeping biography of Graham; it was touted as the definitive take on America’s evangelist. For Frady, Graham embodied the American myth of innocence, which the Vietnam War and Watergate crisis had put on trial. The story of the book highlights the dynamics surrounding the Graham image. The assertive pushback against Frady’s book by the evangelist and his handlers suggested the high stakes of the Graham brand. Ultimately, the meaning of Graham cannot be separated from the stories that Frady and others have told about him. He has alternatively charmed, frustrated, and befuddled those who have tried to elucidate him and his place in American society. Billy Graham is perhaps America’s most complicated innocent.
