Not in Front of the Audience - Nicholas De Jongh - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Not in Front of the Audience - Nicholas De Jongh - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Not in Front of the Audience is a pioneering and important study of a neglected terrain, examining the way in which the theatres of London and New York have reflected contemporary social and cultural attitudes to ''gay men'' and homosexuality. In the 1920s and 1930s the theatre represented homosexuals as either corrupt, or morally pitiful. During the Cold War, under the influence of McCarthyism, homosexuality was perceived as not only morally reprehensible but also politically dangerous and the theatre dutifully reflected such perceptions. Until 1958, direct discussion or depiction of homosexuality was banned from the stage in Britain. But by the late 1960s the theatres of London and New York had begun to confront the issue of heterosexual prejudice and its devastating impact upon the lives of gay men and lesbians. In the wake of the AIDS epidemic, the author concludes, the representation of homosexuality in the theatre has again become an urgent and highly charged issue.

Everyday Practices of Tourism Mobilities - Kaya Barry - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Everyday Practices of Tourism Mobilities - Kaya Barry - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The practice of packing a bag is a situation where subtle, daily processes can attune us to the relationships and experiences formed in mobile situations. There has been great attention to mundane and material practices in tourism, yet the process of packing, which is integral to any journey, remains unexamined. Everyday Practices of Tourism Mobilities: Packing a Bag expands on the foundational theories of tourist practices through a rich assortment of photographic documentation and interviews with tourists in hostelling accommodation. It presents the intricacies and relations emerging through packing and the connections to an array of actors entwined in both touristic and everyday experiences of movement. Using case studies in Iceland and Nepal, the book explores how idealised tourist destinations influence everyday actions. The disjuncture between mundane routines and the heightened immersive environments is conducive to tourists attuning to the entanglement of actors and experiences beyond individual expectations. The book traces these moments of collective experiences to reflect on the intersections of globalised mobility and everyday tourist practices. The international scope of this highly original and intriguing book will appeal to a broad academic audience, including scholars of tourism, cultural and social geography, mobilities studies, and environmental humanities.

Front Vowels, Coronal Consonants and Their Interaction in Nonlinear Phonology - Elizabeth V. Hume - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Front Vowels, Coronal Consonants and Their Interaction in Nonlinear Phonology - Elizabeth V. Hume - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

First published in 1994. This study aims to provide evidence for the natural class of sounds comprised of front vowels, front glides and coronal consonants. The author also shows that a revised definition of the articulator feature [coronal] properly characterises this natural class of sounds. The study provides a formal representation of front vowels and coronal consonants and their interaction within a nonlinear model of feature organisation. This title will be of interest to students of language and linguistics.

The Macedonian Front, 1915-1918 - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Macedonian Front, 1915-1918 - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The ‘Macedonian question’ has been much studied in recent years as has the political history of the period from the Balkan Wars in 1912-13 to the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. But for a variety of reasons, connected with the political division of Greece and the involvement of outside powers, the events at and behind the Macedonian front have been side-lined. The recent commemorations of the centenary of the end of the First World War in the UK illustrate how by comparison with the enormous and moving emphasis on the western front, Macedonia has been not wholly but largely ignored. This volume illuminates this comparatively neglected period of Greek history and examines the strategic and military aspects of the war in Macedonia and the political, social, economic and cultural context of the war.
