Abstract

An Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and the OAPEN library as part of the Opening the Future project with COPIM.The earliest traceable accounts of the AIDS outbreak in Spain began to emerge during its political transition to democracy, with small clusters of cases appearing as early as 1981. HIV/AIDS would go on to shape Spain throughout its pivotal period as a fledgling democracy, underpinning the cultural explosions of the Movida, a sharp rise in intravenous drug use, and the struggles of a coalescing LGBT+ community. Feeling Sick: The Early Years of HIV/AIDS in Spain examines the cultural history of these early years of HIV/AIDS in Spain as it has been told through television and print media, ephemeral products of visual culture, fiction film, and the so-called risk groups that lived through the epidemic. The book draws on the work of Raymond Williams to characterize this emergent period within a structure of "feeling sick" and thus defined by discordant voices, disagreement, and meaning-making in a period of history in formation. Through close readings of Spanish visual culture and media alongside analysis of historical and medical documents, it asserts that a structure of feeling sick begins to coalesce around the emergence of HIV/AIDS and traces out a distinctive sense of living through history as it unfolds. By critically evaluating a selection of cultural materials, this book claims that the earliest years of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Spain reveal common fears about global connectivity, the proliferation of vulnerable ties to others, and the potential of cultural and physical contaminations. Ultimately, Feeling Sick challenges the dominant narratives in which life and disease are seen as separate and unequal, and in which illness is only destructive and devastating.

Abstract

Migration hat sich in den letzten Jahren zu einem der meistdiskutierten Phänomene entwickelt, sowohl innerhalb als auch außerhalb der akademischen Welt. Dieses Buch untersucht, wie syrische Flüchtlingsfrauen sozial, wirtschaftlich, kulturell, ethnisch und sexuell marginalisiert werden. Die Autorin analysiert, wie sich die in der türkischen Aufnahmegesellschaft produzierten Diskurse auf syrische Flüchtlingsfrauen und einheimische Frauen auswirken. Was denken diese Frauen über die aktuellen Ereignisse, ihren Status und die Schritte, die die syrische Regierung und auch NGOs bisher unternommen haben, um Lösungen für die Unsichtbarmachung von Frauen im öffentlichen Raum zu finden? In recent years, migration has become one of the most discussed phenomena, both within and outside the academic world. This book takes into account how Syrian female refugees are socially, economically, culturally, ethnically and sexually marginalized. The author analyzes how discourses produced in the Turkish host society affect Syrian female refugees and local women. What do these women think about the ongoing events, their status and the steps the Syrian government and NGOs as well have taken so far in order to produce solutions for women's invisibilization in the public sphere?

"This anthology, the first of its kind, presents thirty-two texts on contemporary prints and printmaking written from the mid-1980s to the present by authors from across the world.

The book is directed at an audience of international stakeholders in the field of contemporary print, printmaking and printmedia, including art students, practising artists, museum curators, critics, educationalists, print publishers and print scholars. It expands debate in the field and will act as a starting point for further research."--Publisher's description

Abstract

Based on an in-depth examination of Mexico's print and broadcast media over the last twenty-five years, this book is the most richly detailed account available of the role of the media in democratization, demonstrating the reciprocal relationship between changes in the press and changes in the political system. In addition to illuminating the nature of political change in Mexico, this accessibly written study also has broad implications for understanding the role of the mass media in democratization around the world.

Abstract

Many of American journalism's best-known and most cherished stories are exaggerated, dubious, or apocryphal. They are media-driven myths, and they attribute to the news media and their practitioners far more power and influence than they truly exert. In Getting It Wrong, writer and scholar W. Joseph Campbell confronts and dismantles prominent media-driven myths, describing how they can feed stereotypes, distort understanding about the news media, and deflect blame from policymakers. Campbell debunks the notions that the Washington Post's Watergate reporting brought down Richard M. Nixon's corrupt presidency, that Walter Cronkite's characterization of the Vietnam War in 1968 shifted public opinion against the conflict, and that William Randolph Hearst vowed to "furnish the war" against Spain in 1898. This expanded second edition includes a new preface and new chapters about the first Kennedy-Nixon debate in 1960, the haunting Napalm Girl photograph of the Vietnam War, and bogus "ations driven by the Internet and social media.

Abstract

L'inventaire des premières gravures italiennes regroupe plus de huit cents estampes exécutées au quattrocento et au début du cinquecento, toutes reproduites, à l'exception des doubles. Ce fonds exceptionnel – l'un des plus considérables avec ceux du British Museum et de l'Albertina – compte un grand nombre d'œuvres uniques ou rarissimes parmi lesquelles la plus ancienne gravure italienne connue, une épreuve de nielle (plaque d'orfèvrerie), datée de 1452. C'est sous cette forme que l'estampe apparaît en Italie, dans les ateliers d'orfèvres de Florence. Elle connaît une évolution rapide dans les cités artistiques : Florence, Ferrare, Mantoue, Milan, Venise, Vicence, Bologne, Rome.Technique de reproduction et de multiplication de l'image, ce nouveau média utilisé par des orfèvres, des miniaturistes, des peintres, des artisans, parfois de grands maîtres, tels Pollaiuolo et Mantegna, devient un moyen d'expression artistique autonome. Imprégnés de l'idéal esthétique de la Renaissance, les graveurs affirment leur créativité par les valeurs subtiles du noir et du blanc, la recherche de la beauté formelle, l'expressivité de la ligne, le jeu de l'ombre et de la lumière, le sens de l'espace dans la feuille. Leur production facilite la diffusion du langage visuel de la Renaissance et de l'iconographie, de la culture humaniste. Les thèmes profanes se multiplient. Les mythes classiques servent souvent des allégories moralisatrices philosophiques. Les figures fascinantes inspirées de l'antique (satyres, tritons et néréides, centaures, monstres marins), les grotesques et les statues romaines récemment découvertes, animent un univers surnaturel et fantastique, proche de notre sensibilité.Cet inventaire comporte une introduction illustrée – synthèse historique et artistique des débuts de l'estampe en Italie – suivie par l'historique détaillé du fonds du Cabinet des estampes. Les œuvres sont classées par école ou par graveur, chaque ensemble étant précédé d'un texte de présentation et d'une biographie de l'artiste, permettant au lecteur de les situer dans leur contexte. Les notices détaillées signalent l'historique des gravures et mentionnent les filigranes existants, tous reproduits, la plupart par bêta-graphie. On trouvera, à la fin, trois index (artistes, provenances et sujets).

Abstract

From David Livingstone to Charles de Foucauld, from Pierre Savorgan de Brazza to General Gordon, from the 'Sirdar' Kitchener to Jean-Baptiste Marchand, imperial heroes came to captivate the imagination of their contemporaries. These standard-bearers of the 'civilising mission', armed with Bible or rifle, often both, became widely celebrated in their metropoles, with their exploits splashed across the front pages of the penny press, inspiring generations of biographers, painters and, later, film-makers. Coinciding with the advent of 'New Journalism', they embodied the symbolic implementation of the colonial project and performed a highly mythologised meeting between conquerors and conquered, nurturing imperial pride. Berny S{grave}ebe explores in comparative perspective the ways in which heroes of the British and French empires in Africa were selected, manufactured and packaged from the height of 'New Imperialism' until the Second World War. He uncovers the media processes and publishing stories behind the legends of a dozen imperial heroes on both sides of the Channel, offering a comprehensive analysis of a phenomenon which was at the heart of popular imperialism. For all their now-transparent biases and shortcomings, these icons of a bygone age provide us with a fascinating insight into the mechanisms of hero-making in late nineteenth and early twentieth-century Britain and France. They also throw light upon the imperial mind-set, and the story of the interests they served help explain why their epic legends permeate - perhaps even to this day - national identities.
