"Combining personal narrative, interviews, and literary analysis, Fool elaborates the potential for fool figures from throughout literary history to reconfigure subject-object relations and point toward new possibilities in creative and critical thought. Drawing on Johanna Skibsrud's experience in clown classes in France and the US, Fool challenges and extends the correlation Theodor Adorno suggests between thinking and clowning. It considers a diverse range of literary and theoretical sources from Richard Wagner's Parsifal to Karen Barad's Meeting the Universe Halfway. The book also refers to a varied cast of literary and historical clowns and fools, including the early Shakespearean actor Richard Tarlton, Alban Berg's Wozzeck, and Cirque du Soleil's Shannan Calcutt. Skibsrud elaborates the role of the 'fool' and 'foolishness' in literature not as an element of a particular work's content, plot, or style, but instead as a creative mode of thought activated through the reading and writing of literary texts. This innovative book charts new ground in literature, philosophy, and performance studies, and is an invaluable resource for specialists in all three fields"-- Provided by publisher.

"The Imagined Arctic in Speculative Fiction explores the ways in which the Arctic is imagined and what function it is made to serve in a selection of speculative fictions: non-mimetic works that start from the implied question 'what if?' Spanning slightly more than two centuries of speculative fiction, from the starting point in Mary Shelley's 1818 Frankenstein to contemporary works that engage with the vast ramifications of anthropogenic climate change, analyses demonstrate how Arctic discourses are supported or subverted and how new 'Arctics' are added to the textual tradition. To illuminate wider lines of inquiry informing the way the world is envisioned, humanity's place and function in it, and more-than-human entanglements, analyses focus on the function of the actual Arctic and how this function impacts and is impacted by speculative elements. With effects of climate change training the global eye on the Arctic, and as debates around future northern cultural, economic and environmental sustainability intensify, there is a need for a deepened understanding of the discourses that have constructed and are constructing the Arctic. A careful mapping and serious consideration of both past and contemporary speculative visions thus illuminate the role the Arctic has played and may come to play in a diverse set of practices and fields"-- Provided by publisher.

"London as Screen Gateway explores how London features within screen narratives and as a location of screen industry activity. Reflecting the diversity of roles the city plays both on screen and within the screen industries, the volume explores the intersection between London as a material place and its position within a cultural imaginary. Conceptualising London as an archival city, as a collection of specific places and spaces, and as a part of national and international cultural and economic flows, contributors from film studies, television studies and media studies approach London through the lenses of textual analysis, historical work, industry studies and user experience. Chapters explore how London has appeared on screen across film and television, how screen content frames notions of place and belonging within the diasporic communities across the city, how the city has become a hub for the UK and global screen industries and how it intersects with national and local media policy. This interdisciplinary volume will be of interest to scholars and students of film studies, television studies, media industry studies, games studies, cultural and media studies"-- Provided by publisher.

"This book investigates certain recurrent structures in the history of the novel as a textual genre and as a narrative form typical of Western literature. From its origins, in the vernacular cultures of the 12th and 13th centuries, the novel text seems to be characterised by certain stylistic procedures adopted to represent a new narrative structure, which has no direct terms of comparison in the previous literary tradition. Indeed, the novel, as a 'textual machine', often produces a 'narrative manipulation of time and duration', to the point of establishing, within its textual form, a very close link between History, individual memory and a prospective narrative future. This book explores some structural and formal paths of the 'novelistic machine', through three exemplary cases: 1 the 'name of the novel' at the origins of the literary genre, with the invention of a new 'novelistic technique' (i.e. the conjointure) by Chrétien de Troyes (12th century); 2 the book-form, namely 'the book of novels' as a concrete and material object that transmits the narrative text and involves it within the fictional universe; 3 the literary topos of the 'dreaming incipit' and its long history from the Roman de la rose to Proust. This book will be of significant interest to students and scholars of medieval literature, the history of the novel and philology"-- Provided by publisher.

• A selective, selectively annotated, puppetry biography.

"Drawing on the author's two decades of watching, writing, and teaching about puppetry from a critical perspective, this is a collection of insights into how we watch, understand, and appreciate puppetry. Reading the Puppet Stage uses examples from a broad range of puppetry genres, from Broadway shows and the Muppets, to the rich field of contemporary performing object experimentation internationally, to the wealth of Asian puppet traditions, as well as the author's own experienced perspectives on the ways performing objects can create and structure meaning. These examples are married with an understanding of the dramaturgical interplay between puppets, performers, and language. An introductory approach for students, critics, and artists, this book underlines where significant artistic concerns lie in puppetry and outlines the supportive networks and resources that shape the community of those who make, watch, and love this ever-developing art"-- Provided by publisher.
