In Search of the Split Subject: Psychoanalysis,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mycak, Sonia, PUBLISHER: ECW Press, Examining a striking and recurrent aspect of her work--the divided self--this study focuses on the work of Margaret Atwood, offering detailed readings of six of her novels. Through a critical method that borrows freely from both psychoanalytic and phenomenological theorists, chapters on each novel place distinct emphasis on the concepts of each theory, covering such complex topics as secularization, oedipal relations and connections with the maternal, aggressive relativity, the Imaginary, the symbolic, mimesis, space and the dynamics of location, signification, and enunciative positioning. The result is an examination of the ways in which the identity of each protagonist is dislocated, alienated, splintered, and split according to the divisions that mark the subject, and new interpretations of each novel that take into account its characterization, narrative development, thematic content, and setting. An appendix serves to show how Atwood's remaining two novels could be best accounted for by other approaches, making the book a complete account of Atwood's novels to date.

Irelands in the Asia-Pacific

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Robson, Julie-Ann / Kuch, Peter, PUBLISHER: Colin Smythe, This exciting collection of essays by a group of eminent scholars explores the teaching and research of Irish literature in a region of the world that has scouted the attractions of western culture since the sixteenth century. It is reasonably well known that in his own life-time W. B. Yeats was invited to take up a Professorship in Japan; that Ulysses has been translated at least three times into Chinese; that the plays of George Bernard Shaw apparently strike a chord with students in Hong Kong; that the fairy-tales of Wilde are reverenced in China; and that the Irish influence on Australian literature has been pervasive if not profound. But what is not well known are the contexts for these and other interrelations. Irelands in the Asia-Pacific explores these in a sequence of articles grouped under the headings of: Writing an Irish Self; Joyce at Large; Post-Colonial Readings of Irish Literature; Antipodean Connections; Teaching Irish Literature in the Asia-Pacific; and Irish Literature Down-Under.

The Political Economy of American Monetary Policy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mayer, Thomas, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This collection of essays examines the institutional framework in which monetary policy is made. The essays consider two questions: How free is the Fed to set monetary policy and to what extent do organizational problems affect the choice of that monetary policy? Topics covered include the Fed's response to movements on its goals, Congressional and presidential pressures on the Fed, the existence of political business cycles operating through monetary policy, and the extent to which monetary policy may be explained by the Fed's own interests. A final section examines the claim that the Federal Reserve follows countercyclical policy and evaluates its performance as a lender to banks both in normal times and as a lender of last resort.

Mikhail Bulgakov: A Critical Biography

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Milne, Lesley, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, When it was published this was the full, post-glasnost critical biography of Mikhail Bulgakov (), a great comic writer whose works are regarded as modern classics. This account of Bulgakov's career as playwright and prose-writer examines all his works in the context of the changing demands put upon artists in the Soviet Union of the s and s, who were faced with the choice of integrity at the price of silence, or publication and production at the price of conformism with the totalitarian state. Lesley Milne traces through Bulgakov's career an ethical concept of the writer's role, his response to his time, and his search for an audience in and beyond that time.

Understanding Attitudes about War

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brunk, Gregory G. / Tamashiro, Howard / Secrest, Donald, PUBLISHER: University of Pittsburgh Press, Choice Outstanding Academic Book Why have some traditional cold warriors opposed involvement in Iraq and the former Yugoslavia, while many vocal critics of the Vietnam war supported the use of U.S. forces in Somalia, Haiti, and the Balkans? What do these debates tell us about American attitudes toward the use of military force to achieve foreign policy goals? The authors examine the ethical and moral underpinnings of U.S. international relations by exploring the attitudes of decision makers and foreign policy elites toward war. Their unique contribution is to bring together the various doctrines in the literature and to characterize them using behavioral methodologies, in an attempt to bring normative questions back into the mainstream of political science.

Ten in the Morning

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Corbett, William, PUBLISHER: Pressed Wafer Press, Coble, Gerald. Ten in the Morning. Text by William Corbett. Poetry. Art. TEN IN THE MORNING presents an evocative grouping of reader responses. This tandem collection presents Willian Corbett's poems as a response to American artist Gerald Coble's collage, which, itself, comprises responses to writings by Proust, Whitman, Melville, Dickinson, and Thoreau, and to the actress Ava Gardner. Together, these responses remind readers of the possibility of personal readings of public figures. As Corbett writes in his introduction, "Proust, Whitman, Melville, Dickinson, and Thoreau sit firmly in the Western world's pantheon of writers." Perhaps, they sit so far above us that it is easy to forget that those of us who love their work have a personal relationship to it. "Coble's response is of such an individual character-long white gloves and a white thorn branch for Dickinson -that viewers will be spurred to remember their first and ongoing encounters with these generative writers"-William C

Make Noise - Zero Coast

Make Noise - Zero Coast Usato pochissimo e solo in home studio. ------- The 0-COAST is a single voice patchable synthesizer. It's name reflects the fact that it utilizes techniques from both the Moog and Buchla paradigms (aka "East Coast," and "West Coast," due to their locations), but is loyal to neither and thus implements "no coast synthesis." Using only the MIDI controller of your choice you could apply new timbres to your existing musical forms! Using the included Patch Cables you can get more scientific, experimenting with new ways to wire up the circuits. You might even forgo MIDI altogether, disappearing into a cloud of analog FM-induced Sidebands and harmonics scattered around a single fundamental drone that has nothing to do with any form of music you've ever known.
