In the German tradition, law sometimes looks to literature to convey its decisions, and vice versa. Goethe, Hoffmann, the Grimms, Kleist, Kafka, and others were trained as legal scholars. Beebee (Penn State) explores interactions going beyond "mirror of justice" modality--a topos of literary texts from marriage, economics, and so on--to explain the interaction between law and literature in the German language. In the case of Herder, Hegel, Fichte, and the Grimms, historical and literary examples reveal how laws and legal systems conform to the standards of the people they regulate. By contrast, Goethe treads the legal paths with literary finesse, accommodating, for example, Kant's philosophy of marriage. Kafka, entangled by bureaucratic coded law, forces truth while withholding it in the juridical sense. In the Weimar period, critics like Rudolf Borchardt and Ernst Robert Curtius struggled to differentiate literature from party-political activity. Beebee considers the double and triple meanings of certain German words: Schuld (guilt/debts), Prozess (trial/process), Gewalt (power/ violence), Zensur (censorship/academic grades). Peter Weiss draws paradox out of Werte (values/valuables) in Investigation, a play about the Holocaust, creating a script for trials for which there is no official transcript and thus coupling literature with the legal world. Fine bibliography and index. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above. --L. J. Rippley, St. Olaf College

Much Ado About Nothing: Language and Writing

Throughout the important introduction and the clear engagement with the text of the letter, Foster's eye is to the real world of the first century. The amount of evidence we have of Colossian society is small. But Foster manages, through a judicious mix of comparative data and a close analysis of the material we have, to generate a sense of a lively religious text addressing a fledgling group of Jesus followers situated within a largely pagan environment. And he has ensured both a harvesting of the latest critical research and an independence of judgement in interpretation. The sweep of the introduction and commentary is interspersed with useful summaries of material distilled into near, distinct tables and lists without compromise to a thoroughly competent handling of the occasional complexities the letter presents. This is a work of immense value to students and pastors, with students also able to mine its contents with profit.

This book is by far the most varied and comprehensive treatment of the topic of self-translation to date. The book showcases the rich and diverse research being undertaken, as perspectives from a variety of disciplines as well as new approaches to translation scholarship are brought to bear upon the act of self-translation.

Frode Helland’s Ibsen in Practice is a significant contribution to a comparatively recent critical approach to Ibsen … where Helland has been unable to see the performances about which he writes, or when he relegates himself to the status of a 'cultural outsider' (88), he provides meticulous scholarship and relies on the cultural and political history of the productions he researches, revealing both the integrity and the humility of a critic who is determined to understand the 'material and artistic context' (139) that would enable his readers to grasp the nature of the cultural exchanges that are central to his approach to Ibsen performance in global terms.

The Relationship Between the Physical and the Moral in Man is an event in English-speaking philosophy. Readers will have for the first time access to an important work of a founding figure of spiritualist thought. The translation is careful and reads with great ease. The translators provide the original French in places where the text does not translate literally into English or in places where there may be more than one way to translate or read the text in question. The scholarly articles contextualise and show the importance of Biran's thought for philosophy today. Meacham and Spadola give to English readers an important translation of and guide to one of early modernity's more original and fascinating philosophical works.

The book contains well-ordered chapters which make engagement with educational change come alive by using recent and relevant case studies. This helps the reader to understand how professional inquiry can improve what goes on in practice.  Each chapter illustrates the purposefulness of using particular methods of inquiry and suggests how the process requires a demonstration of wide ranging personal and professional qualities including reflection about what goes on and why.  It reveals the way educators  take responsibility for their actions and make carefully considered choices about refinements to practice. The book therefore illustrates how engagement in those choice making activities promotes critical engagement with practice. A really useful resource for students and tutors.

Lacanian Realism is a timely theoretical intervention into a continental philosophical debate, passionately ‘demanding the impossible’ by positioning the Lacanian Real within three respective fields, namely, clinical and metaphysical thought, radical political theory, and mathematics... An important contribution to the fields of continental philosophy, Lacanian psychoanalysis, feminism, and posthumanism.

This book significantly contributes to our understanding of teachers’ professional agency. The authors follow different lines to make clear what teacher agency entails, among which data from their own empirical research on teachers in the context of a large-scale educational reform. Their conceptualization of teacher agency is an interactive one with relevant implications for the whole educational system and on all its levels. Teacher Agency is a book that should be read by all who wish teachers to be active and engaged participants in such a system and, through that, can really make the difference.

As social media becomes more pervasive in many people’s lives globally, the complex entanglement of the human and inhuman across practices, cultures, flows and networks are yet to being fully understood. Grant Bollmer’s Inhuman Networks: Social Media and the Archaeology of Connection offers a thorough and thought-provoking discussion of how we might re-imagine social media beyond a human-centric model bolstered by problematic metaphors around connection. From metaphors such as “networks” to “contagion”, Bollmer takes us on a fascinating journey in and around the messy relationality between technology, desire and humans. This book puts the complex human and beyond-human dimensions of social media in context historically and conceptually in ways that are both poetic and inspiring.

This second edition of Thomas’s, Moore’s and Butler’s incisive, thought-provoking and generally deeply impressive synthesis is very welcome.  Like the first edition, it is written in an engaging style by three experts in their respective decolonisation fields and it will prove a key launch pad for further research into the expansive literature and ever-evolving debates on the causes and consequences of European decolonisation.  The sections relating to the different empires and case-studies of particular territories can be read alone.  But the beauty of this book lies in its high level of comparative analysis, with commonalities and contrasts skilfully brought out in the masterful introduction and conclusion.  The focus remains on the three largest empires of Britain, France and The Netherlands but the excellent section on the Portuguese and Belgian end-of-empire experiences has been significantly expanded.  Throughout, the text has been updated to take account of new historiographical developments since the first edition’s publication in 2008. It pulls no punches in its exploration of the often fraught and violent ending of the European empires, and the ongoing legacies and unresolved contestations of the decolonisation moment.

Crises of Empire

This is an essential book on prisons in the global age of mass incarceration, the fine-grain deep damage that a crude system inflicts on human beings and their families. This is also one of the great books on theater, the shared and inexplicable phenomenon that shifts perceptions, changes lives in real time, and instigates collective reimaginings of moral action, hierarchy, and purpose in the face of unexpected vulnerabilities and difficult truth-telling. Prison theater is perhaps the one place where theater works as it did in early societies, with lives at stake, piercing questions of justice, and the soul of a nation or a community or a family hanging in the balance. Professor Ashley Lucas, herself the daughter of a father who spent more than 20 years in Texas prisons, writes with stunning insight, attentive to the nuance and detail of process within large institutions and informal groups, alert to the circumstances in which emotional life is transfigured and revealed, and the conditions under which it is buried alive. A deeply inspiring book that demonstrates hundreds of positive, healing, and creative ways forward from a misbegotten culture of failure and shame.
