Framing Monsters: Fantasy Film And Social Alienation артикул 10729d. |
 |
Book DescriptionThe canon of popular cinema has long been rife with fantastic tales, yet critical studies have too often expediently mixed the fantasy genre with its kindred science fiction and horror films or dismissed it altogether as escapist fare Framing Monsters: Fantasy Film and Social Alienation reconsiders the cultural significance озеъщ of this storytelling mode by investigating how films seemingly divorced from reality and presented in a context of timelessness are, in fact, encoded with the social practices and beliefs of their era of production Situating representative fantasy films within their cultural moments, Joshua David Bellin illustrates how fantastic visions of monstrous others seek to propagate negative stereotypes of despised groups and support invidious hierarchies of social control In constructing such an argument, Framing Monsters not only contests dismissive attitudes toward fantasy but also challenges the psychoanalytic criticism that has thus far dominated its limited critical study Beginning with celebrated classics, Bellin locates King Kong (1933) within the era of lynching to evince how the film protects whiteness against supposed aggressions of a black predator and reviews The Wizard of Oz (1939) as a product of the Depressions economic anxieties From there, the study moves to the cult classic animated Sinbad Trilogy (19581977) of Ray Harryhausen, films rampant with xenophobic fears of the Middle East as relevant today as when the series was originally produced Advancing to more recent subjects, Bellin focuses on the image of the monstrous woman and the threat of reproductive freedom found in Aliens (1986), Jurassic Park (1993), and Species (1995) and on depictions of the mentally ill as dangerous deviants in 12 Monkeys (1996) and The Cell (2000) An investigation into physical freakishness guides his approach to Edward Scissorhands (1990) and Beauty and the Beast (1991) He concludes with a discussion of X-Men (2000) and Lord of the Rings (20012003), commercial giants that extend a recent trend toward critical self-reflection within the genre while still participating in the continuity of social alienation Written to enhance rather than undermine our understanding of fantastic cinema, Framing Monsters invites filmmakers, critics, and fans alike to reassess this tremendously popular and influential film type and the monsters that populate it "Framing Monsters is a significant study of the ideological workings of fantasy films from classics suchas King Kong and The Wizard of Oz to contemporary favorites like Jurassic Park and Lord of the Rings Invested as both fan and academic, Bellin meticulously argues that this genre reinforces structures of alienation relating to race, class, gender, and disability "Rob Latham, author of Consuming Youth: Vampires, Cyborgs, and the Culture of Consumption. 2005 г 240 стр ISBN 0809326248. |

Clothing the Pacific артикул 10749d. |
 |
Book Description During the colonial period, Pacific Islanders’ acceptance of clothing was seen by Europeans as a civilizing sign In reality, Islanders’ use of foreign cloth and clothing generally involved translating indigenous preoccupations into new forms of dress Today, both imported and indigenous cloth feature prominently in озеьф Pacific Island exchange, religious practice, clothing, domestic space, public political activity, festivals, and the art and tourist markets This book sets out to examine the multiple histories of cloth and clothing in the Pacific and to investigate its role in social innovation and resistance from the period of contact to the present day The past three decades have witnessed the emergence of Pacific fashion stylists as well as cloth producers who, like anthropologists, are acutely aware of how globalization impacts on identity Typically, their work integrates both Pacific and introduced forms This book compares these synthetic forms with others that developed in the region during the colonial period, when foreign cloth was typically adapted and incorporated within indigenous textile systems, and shows how cloth is central to the transmission of identity as well as a vehicle for associative thinking From an analysis of the place of cloth in traditional Tahitian religion, to fashion activism within the diaspora population in New Zealand, Clothing the Pacific provides fascinating insights into the shifting relationship between cloth and socialimagination By tracing the diverse responses to the imposition of dress upon Pacific Islanders, this book profoundly challenges Western assumptions about the place of cloth in culture. 2003 г 288 стр ISBN 1859736661. |

Latex and Lingerie : Shopping for Pleasure at Ann Summers Parties (Materializing Culture) артикул 10765d. |

Book Description Sexy, hedonistic, hilarious - Ann Summers parties are the ultimate girls' night in Promising the perfect antidote to the toils of everyday life - sexual pleasure - they are the 'naughty but nice' version of the classic Tupperware® party Ann Summers parties are incredibly popular, with around 4000 parties held in Britain every озеюь week The basis is simple: to provide an all-female environment where women can buy sexy lingerie, erotic fashion, sex toys and other sex-related products In many respects these parties enable women to transgress social taboos in the comfort of their own homes But they are also a subtle means of constructing and enforcing heterosexual femininity This book investigates what really goes on at these 'special' homosocial gatherings, where heterosexual women drink, laugh, shop, play party games and talk about sex Storr develops a new analysis of the ways heterosexual women identify with and against each other - and of what this tells us about gender, sexuality and consumption in contemporary society Drawing on both participant observation and in-depth interviews with party organizers, this fascinating and fun book is an indispensable guide to the politics of 'post-feminist' culture. 2003 г ISBN 185973698X. |

Even as the book begins with its ending, Ardagh's strategy works as brilliantly as ever--and even includes a semi-sensible plot: young Le Fay McNally has reached the Tap 'n' Type Young Typist of the Year Grand Finals, and she hopes to smuggle her older sister, twin brothers, and one younger brother into the luxurious Dell hotel to watch her compete The poor, put-upon, ill-fed McNally kids reel at the poshness of the Dell, and comedy ensues as Le Fay first sneaks her siblings into the hotel, then begins meeting her competitors (including the hilariously illustrated and described Graham Large: "the hair--my God, the hair--that was most shocking of all Thick, dark brown, and swept back into an enormous quiff, it was so stiff that it looked more like spun sugar She'd never met such a sweet-smelling,softy-skinned, quiffy person in shorts before") Between his knowing asides, Ardagh squeezes in a few other hilarious characters--including chief hotel detective Capt Twinkle-Toes Tweedy (Retd ) and voluminously mustachioed ventriloquist and beat poet Hieronymus Peach--before the white-knuckle Tap 'n' Type finals and the book's climactic ending (which, if you'll remember, came at the book's beginning) Fans and soon-to-be fans of Ardagh will be glad to hear him confide that there's much, much more in store for the McNallys: "There are three books in this series, and something has to happen in the other two!" (Ages 9 to 12) --Paul HughesBook Description The very last words young Fergal McNally heard in his life were: "Don't lean out of that window!" The very last sounds were probably the air whistling past his sticky-out ears as he fell the fourteen stories, the honk of traffic horns below (getting nearer and nearer, of course), and-possibly-the "SP" of the "SPLAT!" he himself made as he hit the pavement Fergal certainly wouldn't have heard more than the "SP," though, because by the time the "LAT!" part had followed, he would have been well and truly dead The first in a darkly hilarious new series from the bestselling author of the Eddie Dickens Trilogy Philip Ardagh's Unlikely Exploits series chart the extraordinary changes in fortune of the downtrodden McNally family, beginning with The Fall of Fergal The setting is an unidentified country suffering from an unexpected breakout of large holes The McNally children find themselves in the Dell Hotel, the venue for the final of the Tap 'n' Type typing competition, surrounded by a strange assortment of characters ranging from Twinkle-Toes Tweedy, the house detective, to Mr Peach, a ventriloquist with a very large mustache With young Fergal McNally falling to his death on page one, the only way for the McNallys is up. 2004 г 144 стр ISBN 0805074767. | . | Six Sigma for Dummies артикул 10738d. |  | The only user-friendly beginner's guide to Six Sigma Six Sigma is the most common - and perhaps least understood - methodology for streamlining processes in manufacturing, service delivery, management, and almost any other business activity For business leaders seeking increased efficiency and customer service, Six Sigma is the key Written озеыт specifically for Six Sigma beginners - whether they're small business owners who want to implement Six Sigma, or professionals and students who need to get up to speed fast - Six Sigma For Dummies is the most straightforward, non-intimidating guide on the market Hundreds of thousands of professionals work in Six Sigma companies such as GE, Sony, Toshiba, Microsoft, and Nokia, but have a hard time fully understanding the methodology This simple, friendly guide makes Six Sigma make sense Intended to help readers implement Six Sigma in their small and medium-sized businesses to improve quality and reduce costs, this no-nonsense guide explains: What Six Sigma is What Six Sigma's goals and objectives are The benefits of Six Sigma in both large and small businesses How the belt system works The DMAIC approach How to implement Six Sigma How to use Six Sigma tools How Six Sigma's approach aims for zero-defects Авторы Крейг Джиджи Craig Gygi Нейл ДеКарло Neil DeCarlo Брюс Вильямс Bruce Williams.
