The authors outline the major themes of the genre, from representations of the mad scientist and computer hacker to the relationship between science fiction and postmodernism, exploring issues such as the meaning of special effects and the influence of science fiction cinema on the entertainment media of the digital age. Over one hundred films are discussed and the book concludes with an extensive case study of "Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace."

The Favored Circle: The Social Foundations of Architectural

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stevens, Garry, PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), The popular view of architecture focuses on individual creative geniuses, those who have designed the most "significant" works. According to Garry Stevens, however, successful architects owe their success not so much to genius as to social background and a host of other factors that have very little to do with native talent. To concentrate only on the profession of architecture is to ignore the much larger field of architecture, which structures the entire social universe of the architect and of which architects are only one part. This book critically surveys that field, exposing many myths and debunking a number of heroes in the process. Using the conceptual apparatus of French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, Stevens describes the field of architecture on two levels. First, he provides a detailed account of the field as it is at any given point in time, describing the different components and their relationships. Second, he analyzes the dynamics of the field through time, from the Renaissance to the present. He discusses the system of architectural education, as well as everyday aspects such as the competition for reputation. He concludes that throughout history, the most eminent architects have been connected to each other by master-pupil and collegiate relations. These networks, which still exist, provide a mechanism for architectural influence that runs parallel to that of the university-based schools.

World System Structure: Continuity and Change

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hollist, W. Ladd, PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), The essays in this volume highlight the different views taken of the world economic system. The first two essays are firmly grounded in the world system of Immanuel Wallerstein. Other essays offer alternative concepts and discuss them in the light of contemporary events -- newly industrializing nations and Third World coalitions. In the final section, Hollist and Rosenau reach conflicting conclusions as to where the world system, and the study of it, are proceding. '...the collection captures a wide range of alternative approaches that international relations and world-system scholars might profitably be jointly aware of. This heightened awareness surely will stimulate even greater dialogue, the goal of the editors.' -- Contemporary Sociology, Vol 12 No 6, November

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Coggeshall, John M. / Nast, Jo A. / Tindall, Randy, PUBLISHER: Southern Illinois University Press, Featuring 157 photographs by Randy Tindall with explanatory text, this book preserves both the architectural and cultural heritage of the French, Anglo-Americans, Germans, Poles, Italians, and Slovakians in 16 counties of southern Illinois. Drawing on interviews as well as empirical research, the authors examine the various ethnic influences on vernacular architecture (everyday structures built without the aid of an architect). To that end they illustrate and discuss domestic, commercial, and ecclesiastical building styles, the cultural use of space, place-names, epigraphs and related inscriptions, settlement patterns, and some types of folk art and material culture. They show through text and photograph what the immigrants brought to southern Illinois and how their influence remains today.

Victorian Visions of Global Order: Empire and International

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bell, Duncan, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This wide-ranging and original study provides an insight into the climate of political thought during the lifespan of what was, at this time, the most powerful empire in history. A distinguished group of contributors explores the way in which thinkers in Britain theorised influential views about empire and international relations, exploring topics such as the evolution of international law; the ways in which the world was notionally divided into the 'civilised' and the 'barbarian'; the role of India in shaping visions of civil society; grandiose ideas about a global imperial state; the development of an array of radical critiques of empire; the varieties of liberal imperialism; and the rise and fall of free trade. Together, the chapters form an analysis of political thought in this context; both of the famous (Bentham, Mill, Marx, and Hobson) and of those who, whilst influential at the time, are all but forgotten today.
