You Never Know: A Memoir

'Rainer Guldin’s Translation as Metaphor admirably fills a pressing need in our knowledge of changes in the humanities and social sciences over the past few decades, focusing on how translation functions as a metaphor in a wide variety of disciplines. A must read for anyone who wants to understand how the way in which we know our new globalized world is being transformed.' James St. André, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, China
'Translation as Metaphor offers an absorbing account of the ways in which notions of translation and metaphor have informed each other across a very broad range of disciplines from psychoanalysis to genetics. Rainer Guldin offers a bold and lucid demonstration of how to understand translation as metaphor is to understand fundamental aspects of our contemporary condition.' Michael Cronin, Dublin City University, Ireland
"The book can be addressed as the latest effort to redefine translation concept and scrutinize its application in other disciplines on the basis of various case studies and critical reflections in the broad cultural and historical contexts. Overall, the comprehensive analysis makes it a must-have book for students, researchers and professional translators working in the field." – Liu Lisheng, School of Foreign Languages, Xuchang University, China.

'This is a theoretically well-grounded and empirically rich study of a highly important topic. It offers fascinating insights on the evolution of an innovative policy instrument cutting across environmental and energy policy. A recommendable book not only for those interested in these policy fields, but also for readers with a general interest in theories of policy change.' Christoph Knill, UnversitÃ¤t Konstanz, Germany  'The EU is actively searching for new ways to govern that do not make "Brussels" any bigger. David Jacobs' subtle empirical analysis of feed in tariff policies in three countries, ably demonstrates how it can trigger cross-national policy convergence using softer modes of governance. He manages to shed much new light on the EU's ability to govern in policy areas where its involvement is politically contested.' Andrew Jordan, University of East Anglia, UK  'Jacobs’ volume will not merely be of interest to scholars of comparative and European politics, as well as practitioners of renewable energy policy, but compulsory reading. ... this is a well-crafted analysis that covers its themes in great detail. The excellent introductory and framework chapters feature unparalleled overviews of the current theoretical and empirical literature on the subject, and the case study chapter on solar photovoltaics is superb. The volume would also be of interest to any comparativist as its small-n analysis of convergence is expertly constructed. As Jacobs notes (p. 201), domestic factors alone cannot be expected to explain policy development in an increasingly globalised world, such that ’analysing countries as interdependent rather than independent actors will be of increasing importance for political scientists’ in future. Understanding the nature of this interaction and convergence is increasingly salient in modern international politics, and Jacobs has written what will be seen as a landmark text for many years to come.'

"This book is part of a new phase in Amazonian cultural geography and anthropology, and shows that the field is branching and spreading...As landscape archaeology and geography of the Amazon develops, this book can serve as a key text on raised field agriculture in a particular geographic context, and as an introduction to pre-Columbian agricultural systems more generally."

"This excellent exposition of words illuminates history and points toward how to read in the present. Banta (emer.,English, UCLA) brings into focus shifts in meanings worked into "intelligent talk" by influential essayists writing in the magazine Vanity Fair, which was published by Condé Nast and edited by Frank Crowninshield. With the stated aim to "tell the truth entertainingly," the magazine published such writers as H. L. Mencken, Walter Lippmann, Edmund Wilson, Aldous Huxley, Dorothy Parker, Dorothy Richardson, T. S. Eliot, Sherwood Anderson, and Robert Benchley. Banta examines how the words and phrases these writers worked with repeatedly - the New Woman, correct, patriotism, democracy, manners, morals, pleasure, war, and so on - involved the shaping of politico-speak during the Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover administrations, the Great War, and the crash. This volume "differs from, but moves alongside" the work of linguistic theorists; in Banta's analyses, defining words takes a fuller accounting of when, in what context. Unlike books about words in the abstract or in particular venues, this is an innovative study of "words at work" in the public consciousness. A valuable resource in linguistics, journalism, English, American studies, and communication. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals." - CHOICE, T. B. Dykeman, formerly, Fairfield University

"An immediate question is why no one before Banta thought to focus on Vanity Fair as a touchstone for this era, or to concentrate on the 'occasional' essays written by writers who would go on to become the leading lights of their generation. But where Banta most succeeds is in taking this insight and developing it into an extended examination of the way important words work in a period, and in working, change the way we think about cultural issues." - Lee Mitchell, Professor of English, Princeton University

"With characteristic style and wit, and the dazzling range of cultural reference her readers have come to expect, Banta delivers an engaging 'capsule biography' of a key but neglected institutional player in American modernism from the Great War to the Great Depression. Drawing on essays by the startling array of contributors to Vanity Fair's pages during these years - from Dorothy Parker, Edmund Wilson, Bertrand Russell and Dorothy Richardson to Walter Lippmann, T.S. Eliot, Jean Cocteau and Clare Boothe Brokaw [Luce] - Words at Work in Vanity Fair traces the evolving values and vocabularies of the self-proclaimed 'magazine for MODERNS' through the Wall Street Crash. The result is a revealing portrait of the American language in transition, and a tour-de-force of cultural analysis that resonates powerfully with the culture wars and political debates of our own time." - David McWhirter, Texas A&M University

Praise for If You Are There

"The bold, incandescent descriptions of séances are where Sherman's art truly shines." —Booklist



"Readers interested in the Curies, in the tense interplay of faith, showmanship, and science, and the vibrant expatriate world of 20th-century Europe will enjoy this latest offering by Susan Sherman..." —History Novel Society



"Sherman's tale is a feast of detail and description, from the dangerous drudgery of the Curies' work creating radioactive matter to the trickery behind the table-turning and ectoplasmic effects at the séances." —Kirkus Reviews



"Lush with the landmarks of turn of the century Paris, when the age of reason came head to head with a resurgent fascination with the occult, Susan Sherman's beautiful novel If You Are There provides one pleasure after another, and I couldn't put it down." —Elizabeth McKenzie, author of The Portable Veblen, Longlisted for the National Book Award and Finalist for the Baileys Prize for Women's Fiction



"If You Are There is challenging and yet unpretentious, complex, deliberate, and wholly, completely original. With a street-wise eye for detail and an ear well-tuned to lyricism, Susan Sherman writes with a fundamental empathy for life as it is lived. Her relentless, meticulous prose is unmatched." —Jill Alexander Essbaum, New York Times bestselling author of Hausfrau



"Susan Sherman has created a sympathetic protagonist whose belief in cosmic signs, scientific discovery, and the interconnectedness of humankind is nothing short of magical." —Vanessa Diffenbaugh, New York Times bestselling author of The Language of Flowers



"The fictional and historical mingle in Sherman's marvelous account of the lives of Marie and Pierre Curie. It is a rare book that is as scientific as it is magical and as magical as it is scientific. This is that book." —Karen Joy Fowler, author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves, Winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award



"This splendid novel is about discovery, in its many forms: in science, in love, in ambition, in connection; it celebrates the intersection of the natural world and faith. Sherman explores all of her characters with precise, tender compassion and radiant insight; we move with them through beautifully described turn-of-the-century Europe, as they find their own understanding of love and loss and strength. You will love this unforgettable book." —Karen E. Bender, author of Refund, Finalist for the National Book Award

Praise for The Little Russian:

People Magazine's Great New Reads in Fiction

One of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of The Year

"If Margaret Mitchell and Isaac Bashevis Singer had a baby, it would be The Little Russian. It's impossible not to be deeply impressed by this sweeping portrait of Russia during the pogroms, but it is even more impossible not to be moved by this fiery and deeply human love story. A moving and brilliantly researched debut, I just loved it." —Sheri Holman, author of The Dress Lodger



"An impressive fiction debut with an epic tale of war's transformative effects on one Russian woman and her family…Sherman succeeds with her epic, sweeping arc and auspicious period setting." —Publishers Weekly



"In The Little Russian, Susan Sherman offers much more than an eloquently gripping narrative set against an explosive backdrop. She is inviting us to consider the too-often unsung heroines of history, the women whose ferocious willpower and dazzling ingenuity can be more potent than gunpowder when it comes to changing the world." —Los Angeles Review of Books

"Moving and smart, The Little Russian is a sweeping tale of survival, loss, love, loyalty, family, religion, racism, and war. Sherman masterfully blends history into fiction, delivering a self-assured, elegant debut." —Victoria Patterson, author of This Vacant Paradise

"Powerful, harrowing, and richly atmospheric, Susan Sherman's unflinching debut novel captures the enduring light of the human spirit when faced with the darkness of unimaginable loss. It's a captivating read told through a voice we won't soon forget."

—Ilie Ruby, author of The Language of Trees

"In Sherman's sweeping novel, Berta Alshonsky is a Russian Scarlett O'Hara, surviving the tsarist regime, the first world war, and the Russian revolution with the only weapons available to her--grit and charm. Jewish life in the Ukraine, with its dizzying contrasts of mansions and shtetls, jewelry and pogroms, aristocrats and revolutionaries, is rendered in aching detail in this fabulous debut." —Adrienne Sharp, author of The True Memoirs of Little K

"Susan Sherman led me down the tumultuous streets of Imperial Russia with the mastery of a born storyteller. The world of The Little Russian is so vivid that Berta's journey quickly became my own. I could not put it down." —Oksana Marafioti, author of American Gypsy

"Entrancing, meticulously researched . . . The Little Russian is a masterful study of one woman's fight to stay afloat and alive in an era in which governance was consolidated with oppression and barbarism . . . Sherman keeps us guessing as to whether her heroine can make it over the border to be reunited with her given-up-for-lost Hershel, and we devour the last pages greedily." —Malcolm Forbes, Rain -Taxi

"Detail by luscious detail, Sherman creates a stunning portrait of a young Jewish woman's struggle to survive in turn-of-the-century Russia." —Kathryn Kay, author of The Gilder

"Berta is a girl from a Jewish working-class family in early 20th century Ukraine. She gets a taste of the good life in Moscow but then has to return to her parents' little store. When a handsome wheat trader comes into the store, they fall in love, and she thinks he's her ticket back to the sumptuous life. But she finds that her husband's business was a cover for his real work, smuggling guns to Jews. Her bad decisions lead to some terrifying adventures. Through it all, she remains headstrong, spoiled, and fascinating." —Elaine's Picks, Book Passage

"Sherman's sprawling research carries the book. She weaves the comfort and complacence of the wealthier people together with the grim desperation of the poor, the comforting, sustaining rituals of the Jews together with the hysterical ignorance of the larger society that vents all its terror on them, slaughter together with a sustaining ritual life. Great scenes abound – a deadly stampede to board a train; flights through snow and icy rivers toward some illusion of safety; tender moments of faith and hope." —The Historical Novels Review

IF YOU ARE THERE

Acufeni: manuale di sopravvivenza

"This is a superb volume with outstanding contributions by the very top scholars of German Idealism and nineteenth century philosophy. The inclusion of three generations of scholars in this collection makes it a truly admirable achievement and asset."
Yitzhak Y. Melamed, Johns Hopkins University, USA
'Should philosophy be systematic or should it be focused on discrete puzzles? Historical or argumentative? Continental or analytic? This volume shows compellingly that in every case the answer is "both."'
Richard Eldridge, Swarthmore College, USA
'This highly recommended volume is original in its conception and impressive in its execution. The pairing of classical interpretations with reactions by top current philosophers is excellently done. Specialists and students alike will benefit from this outstanding collection of seminal discussions of leading figures from Kant through Freud.'
Karl P. Ameriks, University of Notre Dame, USA
