Welcome
“As I and many colleagues can attest to, Intellect cares about creating books of substance through supportive relationships with its authors and editors. Intellect’s mission to ‘represent[…] the author’s voice authentically, without imposition of personal ideas or opinions’ was at the heart of every interaction I had with them – from proposal submission to final copy-editing. The goal was never to get the book simply done, but to get it right. I had an excellent experience with Intellect and look forward to working with them again on another project soon.” Peter Duffy, Editor of A Reflective Practitioner’s Guide to (Mis) Adventures in Drama Education – or – What Was I Thinking?

KINOSPUTNIK Book series Series editors: Birgit Beumers & Richard Taylor
“As interest in Russian film grows, and more and more important Russian and Soviet films become available with English subtitles, so the demand for intelligent and informative writing about them increases. In this context KinoSputnik, Intellect’s new series of incisive, original and accessible guides to key landmarks of Russian film history, written by leading scholars in the field, is greatly to be welcomed.” Julian Graffy, Professor Emeritus from UCL and a leading expert on Russian cinema The KinoSputnik series provides concise companion guides to the most important and interesting films to emerge from Russian cinema from its inception to the present day. While based on sound scholarship, the books are written in a clear and accessible style, with each volume sharing a broadly common structure. Illustrated and at an attractive price, the volumes are aimed primarily at undergraduate and postgraduate students and an interested and intelligent general readership.

Paradjanov’s Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors (1965) is a landmark of Soviet-era cinema because of its emphasis on folklore and mysticism in Carpathian Hutsul culture, which broke with Soviet-realism. This book, as the first full-length companion to the film, offers readers a close analysis of the film’s symbolism, a plot synopsis, a history of the legendary production process. It closes with an account of the film’s reception by critics, audiences and Soviet officials, and the controversies that have kept it a subject of heated debate for decades. Joshua First is the Croft Associate Professor of history and international studies at the Croft Institute for International Studies at the University of Mississippi.

Russian Ark (2002) drew astonished praise for its technique: shot with a Steadicam in one 96 minute take, following the Marquis de Custine as he wandered through the vast Winter Palace – and through three 300 years of Russian history. Providing a comprehensive synopsis, in-depth analysis and an account of the production history, Beumers offers an insight into the now-legendary work of Aleksandr Sokurov.

Mediated cities Book series “The Mediated Cities book series has been developed in conjunction with AMPS as part of its international programme of academic conferences and events of the same name. Consequently, these books capture a fascinating array of ideas from across the world on the relationship between new technologies and medias and the cities in which we live, whether they be London, LA and New York, or Bogota, Guadalajara or Banja Luka.” Graham Cairns, Series Editor The Mediated Cities series explores the contemporary city as a hybrid phenomenon of digital technologies, new media, digital art practices and physical infrastructure. It is an inherently interdisciplinary series around intersecting issues related to the city of today and tomorrow. As Marshall McLuhan identified in 1964, today’s global village is a place of simultaneous experience; a site for overlapping material and electronic effects; a place not so much altered by the content of a medium, but rather, a space transformed by the very nature of medias themselves. For some, this is little more than the inevitable evolution of urban space in the digital age. For others, it represents the city’s liberation from the condition of stasis. For scaremongers, it’s a nightmare scenario in which the difference between the virtual and the real, the electronic and the material, the recorded and the lived, becomes impossible to identify. •

In the contemporary city, the physical infrastructure and sensorial experience of two millennia are now interwoven within an invisible digital matrix.

Space, Embodiment and Empathy in Performance By Campbell Edinborough
ISBN: 978-1-78320-586-8 10 Illustrations 170 pp | £70/$100 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available
Performance, dramaturgy, and scenography are often explored in isolation, but in Theatrical Reality, Campbell Edinborough describes their connectedness in order to investigate how the experience of reality is constructed and understood during performance. Drawing on sociological theory, cognitive psychology, and embodiment studies, Edinborough analyses our seemingly paradoxical understanding of theatrical reality, guided by the contexts shaping relationships between performer, spectator, and performance space. Through a range of examples from theatre, dance, circus, and film, Theatrical Reality examines how the liminal spaces of performance foster specific ways of conceptualizing time, place, and reality.

How People Found Value in National Theatre Wales By Kirsty Sedgman With a foreword by John E. McGrath
ISBN: 978-1-78320-571-4 226 pp | £70/$100 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Kirsty Sedgman is a researcher and founder of the Performing Audience Research Network.
How do audiences experience live performances? What is gained when a national theatre is born? These questions and more are the subject of Locating the Audience, the first in-depth study of how people form relationships with a new theatre company. Investigating the inaugural season of National Theatre Wales, Kirsty Sedgman explores how different people felt about the way their communities were ‘engaged’ and their places ‘performed’ by the theatre’s productions. Mapping the complex interplay between audience experience and identity, the book presents a significant contribution to our contemporary project of defining cultural value. Rather than understanding value as an end point, ‘impact’, Sedgman makes the provocative claim that cultural value can better be understood as a process.

Theatre for Children in Hospital The Gift of Compassion By Persephone Sextou
ISBN: 978-1-78320-645-2 205 pp | £40/$57 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Persephone Sextou is a reader in applied theatre and research director of the Community and Applied Drama Laboratory (CADLab) at Newman University, Birmingham, UK.
Recent decades have seen a new appreciation develop for applied theatre and the role of arts-based activities in healthcare. This book looks specifically at the place of theatre for children who are hospitalized, showing how powerfully it can enhance their social and mental well-being. Child-led performances, for example, can be used as a technique to distract young patients from hospitalization, prepare them for painful procedures, and teach them calming techniques to control their own pre- or post-operative stress. Persephone Sextou details the key theoretical contexts and practical features of theatre for children, in the process offering motivation, guidance and in spiration for practitioners who want to incorporate performance into their treatment regimen.
On Repetition Writing, Performance & Art Edited by Eirini Kartsaki
ISBN: 978-1-78320-577-6 15 colour Illustrations 238 pp | £75/$107 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Eirini Kartsaki is a teaching fellow in drama and performance studies at Queen Mary University of London.
On Repetition aims to unpack the different uses and functions of repetition within contemporary performance, dance practices, craft and writing. The collection, edited by Eirini Kartsaki, explores repetition in relation to intimacy, laughter, technology, familiarity and fear – proposing a new vocabulary for understanding what is at stake in works that repeat. Drawing on psychoanalysis, philosophy, linguistics, sociology and performance studies – and employing case studies from a range of practices – the essays presented here combine to form a unique interdisciplinary exploration of the functions of repetition in contemporary culture. “This is a book full of fascinations. And also of passions, pleasures, novelties, dissatisfactions and griefs. It is a book about the efforts we make to enact and to understand, to educate and politicise, about how to value that which is perpetually arriving, doing and undoing itself; and also how to say goodbye.” Joe Kelleher, Professor of Theatre and Performance, University of Roehampton
JARMAN (all this maddening beauty) and other plays By Caridad Svich
ISBN: 978-1-78320-622-3 9 Illustrations 212 pp | £40/$57 Paperback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Part of the Playtext series Caridad Svich is a playwright, songwriter and translator.
JARMAN (all this maddening beauty) and other plays is a collection of three radically poetic works for live performance by OBIE award– winning playwright Caridad Svich. The playtexts include a lyrical meditation on the legacy of iconic queer artist Derek Jarman, a meditation on displacement and human suffering (Carthage/ Cartagena), and an intimately operatic reflection on Penelope and Odysseus (The Orphan Sea). Accompanied by scholarly essays placing the plays in context, this book showcases the beautiful strangeness and profound resistance in Svich’s work. “JARMAN (all this maddening beauty) and other plays is a sensuous meditation on memory and the transgressive imagination – a poetic encounter fired by the rage and beauty of queerness.” Chris Megson, Royal Holloway, University of London

Mindful Movement

Martha Eddy is a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist, Teacher of BodyMind Centering and Certified Movement Analyst with a doctorate in movement science, on the faculty at Empire State College, SUNY, and Princeton University. She is the founder of the non-profit organization Moving for Life as well as the somatic movement therapy training Dynamic Embodiment.
In Mindful Movement, exercise physiologist, somatic therapist, dance educator and advocate Martha Eddy uses original interviews, case studies and practice-led research to define the origins of a new holistic field – somatic movement education and therapy– and its impact on fitness, ecology, politics, health, education and performance. The book reveals the role dance has played in informing and inspiring the historical and cultural narrative of somatic arts – approaches to consciousness based in the awareness of the soma – the living body. Providing an overview of the antecedents and recent advances in somatic study and with contributions by diverse experts, Eddy highlights the role of Asian movement, the European physical culture movement as well as the language of neuroscience and their relationship to the performing arts, and female perspectives in developing somatic movement, somatic dance, social somatics, somatic fitness, somatic dance and spirituality, and ecosomatics. Mindful Movement unpacks and helps to popularize awareness of both the body and the mind.

David Ian Rabey brings in sources ranging from medieval and Renaissance theatre to contemporary performances – in addition to recent writings from physics, philosophy, and psychology – to analyse ways that time can be presented, communicated and transformed in the theatre. How do we experience time in theatre, and how can that experience be altered or manipulated? Rabey’s analysis and exploration will spark discussion among students and scholars of drama, as well as among practising performers and dramatic writers.

Adrian Howells (1962–2014) was one of the world’s leading figures in the field of one-to-one performance practice – the act of staging an event for one audience participant at a time. Developed over more than a decade, Howells’s award-winning work demonstrated not only his enduring commitment to this genre of performance, but also his determination to find new challenges and innovations in performance art, ‘intimate theatre,’ and socially engaged art. It’s All Allowed, edited by Deirdre Heddon and Dominic Johnson, is the first book devoted to Howells’s remarkable achievements and legacy. Contributors here testify to the methodological, thematic and historiographical challenges posed by Howells’ performances. Citing his permissive mantra as its title, It’s All Allowed includes new writing from leading scholars and artists, as well as writing by Howells himself, an extensive interview, scores, and visual materials, which together offer new insights into Howells’s ground-breaking process.

The Lived Experience of Improvisation In music, learning and life By Simon Rose
ISBN: 978-1-78320-673-5 261 pp | £35/$50 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Simon Rose is a musician, researcher, and writer who is currently based in Berlin.
Improvisation is crucial to a wide range of artistic activities – most prominently, perhaps, in music, but extending to other fields of experience such as literature and pedagogy. Yet it gets short shrift in both appreciation and analysis of art within education. This is in no small part due to our tendency to view the world in fixed categories and structures that belie our ability to generate creative, ground-breaking responses within and between those structures. The Lived Experience of Improvisation draws on an analysis of interviews with highly regarded improvisers, including Roscoe Mitchell, Pauline Oliveros and George Lewis. Simon Rose also exploits his own experience as a musician and teacher, making a compelling case for bringing back improvisation from the margins. He argues that improvisation is a pervasive aspect of being human and that it should be at the heart of our teaching and understanding of the world.

Kurt Kren Structural Films Edited by Nicky Hamlyn, Simon Payne and A. L. Rees
ISBN: 978-1-78320-551-6 55 colour Illustrations 296 pp | £50/$71.50 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Nicky Hamlyn is a writer and film-maker based in the United Kingdom. He teaches at the University for the Creative Arts and the Royal College of Art in London and is the author of Film Art Phenomena. Simon Payne is a video artist, writer, and programmer. He is a senior lecturer in film and media studies at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. A. L. Rees (1949– 2014) was a critic, historian, and research tutor at the Royal College of Art, London.
Kurt Kren was a vital figure in Austrian avant-garde cinema of the post-war period. His structural films, often shot frame-by-frame following elaborately pre-scored charts and diagrams, have influenced film-makers for decades, even as Kren himself has remained a nomadic and obscure public figure. Kurt Kren: Structural Films, edited by Nicky Hamlyn, Simon Payne, and A. L. Rees, brings together interviews with Kren, film scores, and classic, out-of-print essays, alongside the reflections of contemporary academics and film-makers, to add muchneeded critical discussion of Kren’s legacy. Taken together, the collection challenges the canonical view of Kren that ignores his underground lineage and powerful, lyrical imagery.
A Cognitive Model of Experiential Film Aesthetics By Luis Rocha Antunes
Film Studies
The Multisensory Film Experience
25
Luis Rocha Antunes is a doctoral candidate in film studies and aesthetics at the University of Kent and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
The light and sound of the motion picture, once perceived, are a gateway to a multisensory experience of the spectator. Moving beyond the oftdiscussed perceptual elements of vision and hearing, The Multisensory Film Experience analyses temperature, pain and balance in order to argue that it is the experience of film that’s inherently multisensory, not the medium. Luis Rocha Antunes here explores the work of well-loved filmmakers Erik Jensen, Gus Van Sant and Ki-Duk Kim to offer new insights into how viewers experience films and understand their stories. This is an original contribution to an emerging field of research and will become essential reading for film scholars.

Cartomancy and Tarot in Film By Emily E. Auger
ISBN: 978-1-78320-331-4 400 pp | £80/$114 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available
In the first book-length study of tarot cards on the silver screen, Emily E. Auger contextualizes cartomancy – the practice of fortune telling via playing cards – and dives deep into its invention and promulgation in film. After providing an introduction to divination and cartomancy, Auger offers detailed descriptions and analyses of the roles that cartomancy and tarot cards play in films. The book features a filmography including nearly two hundred films, detailing their relationships to cartomancy. As tarot communities continue to grow worldwide, Cartomancy and Tarot in Film will be of increasing interest to scholars of esoteric studies, film, folklore, playing cards, popular culture, and religion, as well as diviners the world over.
Emily E. Auger is the author of Tarot and Other Meditation Decks and Tech-Noir Film, as well as the editor of Tarot in Culture. She has taught art history in Canadian and American universities for more than twenty years.

Director Sam Peckinpah (1925 – 1984) never won an Oscar. His filmography is short and uneven, and his movies have never found a wide audience. Despite this, many film-makers today, including Tarantino and Scorsese, count him as a major influence. Sam Peckinpah, edited by Fernando Ganzo, investigates how this unique film-maker can have such an outsized legacy, exploring films as diverse as New Mexico and Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, as well as Peckinpah’s television work. This lavishly illustrated volume will delight scholars and fans, as well as bringing the under-appreciated Peckinpah to new audiences in a new millennium.

Edited by Alberto Zambenedetti The prototypical rust belt city, Cleveland has long served as an emblem of late twentieth-century urban decay. But recent decades have brought a cultural and economic renaissance – a revival that has been reflected and aided by the growing number of films being shot on location there.
ISBN: 978-1-78320-648-3 170 Illustrations 129 pp | £20/$28.50 Paperback | Autumn 2016 152 x 229mm eBook available Part of the World Film Locations Series Alberto Zambenedetti is visiting assistant professor of cinema studies and an Andrew W. Mellon postdoctoral fellow at Oberlin College. He is the editor of World Film Locations: Florence.
This new entry in the World Film Locations series offers the firstever extended look at Cleveland on screen. Richly illustrated with images from dozens of productions, it reveals Cleveland to be usefully chameleonic, appealing to some film-makers for its modern down town’s ability to mimic more prominent (and more expensive) cities, to others for the way its shuttered factories and decaying docks signify contemporary urban distress. With entries on such classics as The Fortune Cookie, The Deer Hunter, A Christmas Story and The Avengers, as well as lesser-known films, the volume reveals Cleveland to be a far more compelling, and far more varied, on-screen presence than even most film buffs would expect.

Directory of World Cinema: American Independent 3 Edited by John Berra

This third volume of the successful Directory of World Cinema series focusing on American independent film-making presents in-depth essays on 44 filmmakers who have primarily worked outside the mainstream or on its industrial margins. Contributors offer close analyses of the work of both widely acknowledged auteurs and little-known provocateurs who deserve much wider recognition. Major names discussed include Wes Anderson, Jim Jarmusch, Dennis Hopper, Sofia Coppola, and Darren Aronofsky, with attention also paid to cult directors like Larry Cohen, Zalman King, and Ti West. The resulting book is both a who’s who of contemporary independent cinema in America and a reminder that the ways of making films outside the studio system are incredibly varied – and can be powerfully effective.
John Berra is a lecturer in film and language studies at Renmin University of China.

Gary M. Kramer is a freelance writer for Salon and Philadelphia Gay News.
This volume continues the exploration of contemporary Argentine cinema that began in the first book. It provides a close analysis of exciting new directors, including Marco Berger and Matías Piñeiro, transnational stars like Ricardo Darín, and trends such as films being made in the provinces. Contributors cover several of the country’s Oscar submissions, including Benjamín Ávila’s Clandestine Childhood, Lucía Puenzo’s The German Doctor, and Damián Szifron’s Wild Tales, which became a surprise global hit. Focusing primarily on films made since 2000, the book offers a rich mix of reviews, essays, analyses, and film stills, which together make it an invaluable companion to one of the most popular, diverse and successful film industries in Latin America.

Twin Peaks
Few contemporary television shows have been subjected to the critical scrutiny that has been brought to bear on David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks since its debut in 1990. Yet the series, and the subsequent film, Fire Walk With Me, are sufficiently rich that it’s always possible for a close analysis to offer something new – and that’s what Frank Boulègue has done with Twin Peaks: Unwrapping the Plastic. Through Boulègue’s eyes, we see for the first time the world of Twin Peaks as a coherent whole, one that draws on a wide range of cultural source material, including surrealism, transcendental meditation, Jungian psychoanalysis, mythology, fairy tales and much, much more. The work of a scholar who is also a fan, the book should appeal to any hardcore Twin Peaks viewer.
Franck Boulègue is a film critic for various research journals and co-editor of Fan Phenomena: Twin Peaks.

Exhibition Contexts, 8mm Pornography and the Sex Film By Mariah Larsson
ISBN: 978-1-78320-682-7 6 Illustrations 175 pp | £32/$46 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Mariah Larsson has taught sexology at Malmö University and film studies at Stockholm University.
This book presents a close look at the golden age of Swedish pornography in the 1970s, with a specific focus on pornographic films screened in Malmö between 1971 and 1976. How, Mariah Larsson asks, was that one small city’s embrace of the era’s sexual liberation both representative and unique in relation to the rest of Sweden? Combining contemporary case studies with comprehensive analyses of advertisements, critical responses, and censorship records, Larsson deconstructs the complexities and paradoxes of the Swedish porn scene. Looking as closely at the exhibition spaces where porn was seen as at the productions themselves and their audiences, Larsson reveals the conditions and social changes that allowed pornography in Sweden to flourish in the period. “This careful analysis will have significant resonance across the western world. It also provides a much needed historical background to recent and likely future changes in Swedish policy around commercial sex.” Jill Matthews, Australian National University

Activist Film Festivals Towards a Political Subject Edited by Sonia Tascón and Tyson Wils
ISBN: 978-1-78320-634-6 8 Illustrations 245 pp | £45/$64 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Sonia Tascón is a lecturer at the School of Social Sciences at the University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia. Tyson Wils is a lecturer at the School of Media and Communications at RMIT University, Australia.
Film festivals are an ever-growing part of the film industry, but most considerations of them focus almost entirely on their role in the business of film-making. This book breaks new ground by bringing scholars from a range of disciplines together with industry professionals to explore the concept of festivals as spaces through an activist lens, as spaces where the sociopolitical identities of communities and individu als are confronted and shaped. Tracing the growth of activist and human rights-focused films from the 1970s to the present, and using case studies from San Francisco, Brazil, Bristol, and elsewhere, the book addresses such contentious topics as whether activist films can achieve humanitarian aims or simply offer ‘cinema of suffering.’
Cinema, memory and the history of a gay male community By Scott McKinnon
Film Studies
Gay Men at the Movies
31
Scott McKinnon is a postdoctoral research fellow at Western Sydney University and an honorary research associate at the University of Sydney.
Cinema has long played a major role in the formation of community among marginalized groups, and this book details that process for gay men in Sydney, Australia from the 1950s to the present. Scott McKinnon builds the book from a variety of sources, including film reviews, media reports, personal memoirs, oral histories, and a striking range of films, all deployed to answer the question of how to understand cinemagoing as a moment of connection to community and identity – how the experience of seeing these films and being part of an audience helped to build a community among the gay men of Sydney in the period.

Horror films have for decades commanded major global audiences, tap ping into deep-rooted fears that cross national and cultural boundaries in their ability to spark terror. This book brings together a group of scholars to explore the ways that this fear is utilized and played upon by a wide range of film-makers. Contributors take up such major figures as Guillermo del Toro, Lars Von Trier and David Cronenberg, and they also offer introductions to lesser-known talents such as Richard Franklin, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Juan López Moctezuma, and Alexandre Aja. Scholars and fans alike dipping into this collection will discover plenty of insight into what chills us.

ISBN: 978-1-78320-546-2 250 pp | ÂŁ40/$57 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Gjoko Muratovski has more than twenty years of design and branding experience. He is the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Design, Business & Society.
We live in a society that defines us by what we consume and how. Every day we make purchasing decisions that express our sense of belonging, our commitments to the environment, and our systems of belief. We often choose to buy things, not necessarily because we need them, but because we believe that these things will help us express who we are – in our own eyes and in the eyes of others. Whether we like it or not, consumerism is the prevalent ideology of our time. Led by Gjoko Muratovski, Consumer Culture is the ideal starting point for an investigation into the social construction of the global economy.

Entering Transmasculinity

matthew heinz is dean of the Faculty of Social and Applied Sciences and professor in the School of Communication and Culture at Royal Roads University in Victoria, British Columbia.
Entering Transmasculinity is a holistic study of the intersecting and overlapping discourses that shape transgender identities. In the book, matthew heinz offers an examination of mediated and experienced transmasculine subjectivities and aims to capture the apparent contradictions that structure transmasculine experience, perception, and identification. From the relationship between transmasculinity’s emancipatory potential and its simultaneously homogenizing implications, to issues of gender-queerness, sexual minorities, normativity, and fatherhood, Entering Transmasculinity is the first book to synthesize these disparate areas of academic study in the context of digital constructions of the transmasculine self.

Montréal is à la mode. A fashionable city in its own right, it also boasts fashion schools, an industry packed with local designers and manufacturers, and a dynamic scene that exhibits local and international collections. With its vibrant cultural life and affordable cost of living, designers and artists flock from all over to be a part of Montréal’s hip fashion community. Montréal Chic is the first book to document this scene and how it connects with the city’s design, film, music and cultural history. Katrina Sark and Sara Danièle BélangerMichaud are intimately acquainted with Montréal and use their firsthand knowledge of the city’s fashion to explore urban culture, music, institutions, scenes and subcultures, along the way uncovering many untold stories of Montréal’s fashion scene.
Katrina Sark is a cultural analyst and historian with a Ph.D. from McGill University, and currently teaches at the University of Victoria. She is the founder of the Canadian Fashion Scholars Network and the co-founder of the Urban Chic book series published by Intellect.

Polish Media Art in an Expanded Field By Aleksandra Kaminska
ISBN: 978-1-78320-540-0 84 Illustrations 230 pp | £25/$36 Paperback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Aleksandra Kaminska is a postdoctoral fellow at Simon Fraser University and a research associate at Sensorium, Centre for Digital Arts and Technology, York University, Canada.
From an Eastern nation on the global periphery to a European neoliberal democracy enmeshed in transnational networks, Poland has experienced a dramatic transformation in the last century. Polish Media Art in an Expanded Field uses the lens, and mirror, of media art to think through the politics of a post-socialist ‘New Europe’, where artists are negotiating the tension between global cosmopolitanism and national self-enfranchisement. Situating Polish media art practices in the context of Poland’s aesthetic traditions and political history, Aleksandra Kaminska provides an important contribution to site-specific histories of media art. Polish Media Art in an Expanded Field demonstrates how artists are using and reflecting upon technology as a way of entering into larger civic conversations around the politics of identity, place, citizenship, memory, and heritage. Building on close readings of artworks that serve as case studies, as well as interviews with leading artists, scholars, and curators, this is the first full-length study of Polish media art.
Private Investigator Edited by Alistair Rolls and Rachel Franks

Rachel Franks is a conjoint fellow at the University of Newcastle, Australia, and a co-ordinator of education and scholarship at the State Library of New South Wales.
The private investigator is one of the most enduring characters within crime fiction. From Dashiell Hammett’s Sam Spade – the hard-boiled loner trawling the mean streets – to Agatha Christie’s Captain Hastings – the genteel companion in greener surrounds - the P. I. has taken on any number of guises. In Crime Uncovered: Private Investigator, editors Alistair Rolls and Rachel Franks delve deep into crime literature and culture, challenging many of the assumptions we make about the hardy private investigator. Rolls and Franks have engaged here the tension between the popular and scholarly that is inherent in any critical examination of a literary type, along the way unravelling the mystery of the alluring, enigmatic private investigator. Crime Uncovered: Private Investigator will be a handy companion for any crime fiction fan.

Though it’s given little attention – and even less serious attention – by the mainstream press, metal music has for decades been a major creative and cultural force around the world. This book brings together a group of contributors from Europe, North America, and the Caribbean to make a case for metal’s place not merely on the periphery of our culture, but at its very heart. Contributors attend not merely to the music, but also the accompanying culture, and they offer intriguing insights into the rise of metal in places where it’s traditionally been little known, like the Middle East and North Africa. The result is a global portrait of metal that asserts its importance and its ongoing contribution to culture.

Cotton Companies, Fashion and the Fabric of Our Lives Edited by Joseph H. Hancock II, Nioka Wyatt and Tasha L. Lewis
ISBN: 978-1-78320-685-8 70 Illustrations 108 pp | £27/$38 Paperback | Autumn 2016 220 x 220mm eBook available Joseph H. Hancock II teaches and conducts research at Drexel University in Philadelphia and is the editor of the journal Fashion, Style and Popular Culture. Nioka Wyatt is assistant professor in the fashion merchandising & management programme at Philadelphia University. Tasha L. Lewis is assistant professor in the Department of Fiber Science & Apparel Design at Cornell University.
This book brings together contributors from a wide range of disciplines to explore the importance of cotton as a major resource for US fashion businesses. It is rooted in a lengthy investigative research project that deployed undergraduate and graduate students and faculty researchers to US fashion businesses that rely on cotton to make their garments – with the goal of better understanding how such a key resource is sourced, priced, transported, manipulated, and, ultimately, sold on to the consumer as a stylish garment. The contributors focus in particular on the role of brands in the marketing of cotton goods, and the way that brand marketing creates distinctions, valuable in the marketplace, between various versions of what are at base similar items of clothing, like t-shirts and un derclothes. The book also explores the importance of the ‘Made in the USA’ campaign, with its appeal to consumers concerned about local manufacturing employment, reduced resource use, and social responsibility.

English pop music was a dominant force on the global cultural scene in the decades after World War II – and it served a key role in defining, constructing, and challenging various ideas about Englishness in the period. Kari Kallioniemi covers a stunning range of styles of pop – from punk, reggae, and psychedelia to jazz, rock, Brit Pop, and beyond – as he explores the question of how various artists (including such major figures as David Bowie and Morrissey), genres, and pieces of music contributed to the developing understanding of who and what was English in the transformative post-war years.

Few cities in the world offer the diversity of stunning visuals that can be found on the streets of Moscow, from famous landmarks like Red Square to the Boulevard Ring and Kamergersky Lane and the residential areas beyond the Garden Ring. For this book, former Moscow resident Elena Siemens travelled them all as an urban flâneur, taking photographs of contemporary fashion in action and setting it alongside explorations of modern and historic representations of fashion and beauty as seen in a wide variety of products of Russian culture. Through her photos and analysis, Siemens considers the question of how contemporary Russians understand their post-Soviet identity and express it through the ways they present themselves in public.

Seamlessness Making and (Un)Knowing in Fashion Practice By Yeseung Lee
ISBN: 978-1-78320-642-1 90 Illustrations 240 pp | £30/$43 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Yeseung Lee is a researcher and practising designer. She is currently a visiting academic for research in fashion and textiles at the Royal College of Art, London.
Taking the concept of ‘seamlessness’ as her starting point, Yeseung Lee offers an innovative practice-based investigation into the meaning of the handmade in the age of technological revolution and globalized production and consumption. Combining first-hand experience of making seamless garments with references from psychoanalysis, anthropology and cultural studies, Lee reveals the ways that a garment can reach to our deeply superficial sense of being, and how seamless garments can represent the ambiguity of a modern subject in a perpetual process of becoming. Richly illustrated and firmly rooted in the actual work of creation, this daringly innovative book breaks new ground for fashion research. “A richly contextualized and beautifully narrated journey into the cognition of making that binds cloth and skin, garment and person and replaces distinction by modalities of transition. A sharp and incisive critique of the fashion system that will enable a new approach to be developed to the analysis of fashion.” Susanne Küchler, University College London

This book also includes interviews with the people who interacted with Twilight’s cast and fans at conventions and filming locations, and experienced first-hand the explosion in its fan fiction culture. Extending far beyond its pop culture origins, fans, academics and business leaders will enjoy this study of Twilight’s enduring legacy.

Defining the Nation, Defining Public Television By Janis Juzefovics

Janis Juzefovics builds his book around Albert O. Hirschman’s classic concepts of exit, voice, and loyalty – the options available to a person within any system. He uses Hirschman’s ideas, along with tools from social constructionism, to assess how the public has responded to the role of public television in the nation-building efforts of the new Latvian state. Along the way, he develops our understanding of public broadcasting more generally, and the way it can be used to define a national ‘we’.

Journalism Re-examined Digital Challenges and Professional Reorientations (Lessons from Northern Europe) Edited by Martin Eide, Helle Sjøvaag and Leif Ove Larsen
ISBN: 978-1-78320-718-3 10 line drawings 238 pp | £35/$50 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Martin Eide and Leif Ove Larsen are professors in the Department of Information Science and Media Studies at the University of Bergen, where Helle Sjøvaag is a research professor.
The digital era has posed innumerable challenges to the business and practice of journalism. Journalism Re-examined sets out an institutional theoretical framework for exploring the journalistic institution in the digital age and analyses how it has responded to profound changes in its social and professional practices, norms, and values. Building their analysis around the concept of these changes as reorientations, the contributors present a number of case studies, with a particular emphasis on journalism in the Nordic countries. They explore not just straight news and investigative journalism, but also delve into lifestyle and documentary coverage, all with the aim of understanding the reorientations facing journalism and the ways they might present a sustainable future path.
Kiosk Literature of Silver Age Spain Modernity and Mass Culture Edited by Jeffrey Zamostny and Susan Larson
ISBN: 978-1-78320-665-0 35 Illustrations 315 pp | £37/$53 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Jeffrey Zamostny is assistant professor of Spanish and director of the minor in gender and sexuality studies at the University of West Georgia. Susan Larson is associate professor of Spanish literature, film, and cultural studies at the University of Kentucky. She is the author of Constructing and Resisting Modernity: Madrid 1900–1936.
The so-called ‘Silver Age’ of Spain ran from 1898 to the rise of Franco in 1939 and was characterized by intense urbanization, widespread class struggle and mobility, and a boom in mass culture. This book offers a close look at one manifestation of that mass culture: weekly collections of short, often pocket-sized books sold in urban kiosks at low prices. These series published a wide range of literature in genres and formats, but their role as disseminators of erotic and anarchist fiction led them to be censored by the Franco dictatorship. This book offers the most detailed scholarly analysis of kiosk literature to date, examining the kiosk phenomenon through the lens of contemporary interdisciplinary theories of urban space, visuality, celebrity, gender and sexuality, and the digital humanities.

The past twenty years have seen major changes in the ways that television formats and programming are developed and replicated internationally for different markets – with locally focused repackagings of hit reality shows leading the way. But in a sense, that’s not new: TV formats have been exported for decades, with the approach and methods changing along with changes in broadcast technology, markets, government involvement, and audience interest. This book brings together scholars of TV formats from around the world to analyse and discuss those changes and offer an up-to the-minute analysis of the current state of TV formats and their use and adaptation worldwide.

Taking up McLuhan’s Cause Perspectives on Media and Formal Causality Edited by Corey Anton, Robert K. Logan and Lance Strate This book brings together a number of prominent scholars to explore a relatively under-studied area of Marshall McLuhan’s thought: his idea of formal cause and the role that formal cause plays in the emergence of new technologies and in structuring societal relations. Aiming to open a new way of understanding McLuhan’s thought in this area, and to provide methodological grounding for future media ecology research, the book runs the gamut: from contributions that directly support McLuhan’s arguments to those that see in them the germs of future developments in emergent dynamics and complexity theory. “Very good essays on a crucial intellectual topic. I’m hopeful that this anthology will help kick off another McLuhan movement rooted in McLuhan’s place in the great tradition of philosophies of causation.” Graham Harman, American University in Cairo
Traces of the Future An Archaeology of Medical Science in Twenty-First-Century Africa Edited by Paul Wenzel Geissler and Guillaume Lachenal
ISBN: 978-1-78320-725-1 150 Illustrations 176 pp | £20/$28.50 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Paul Wenzel Geissler is a professor in the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of Oslo. Guillaume Lachenal is a lecturer at the Universite Paris Diderot and junior fellow of the Institut Universitaire de France.
This book presents a close look at the vestiges of twentieth-century medical work at five key sites in Africa: Senegal, Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya, and Tanzania. The contributors aim to understand the afterlife of scientific institutions and practices and the ‘aftertime’ of scientific modernity and its attendant visions of progress and transformation. Straightforward scholarly work is juxtaposed here with altogether more experimental approaches to fieldwork and analysis, including interview fragments; brief, reflective essays; and a rich photographic archive. The result is an unprecedented view of the lingering traces of medical science from Africa’s past.

Phil Rose is the author of Roger Waters and Pink Floyd: The Concept Albums and Radiohead and the Global Movement for Change: ‘Pragmatism Not Idealism’.
In 1992, Neil Postman presciently coined the term ‘technopoly’ to refer to ‘the surrender of culture to technology’. This book brings together a number of contributors from different disciplinary perspectives to analyse technopoly both as a concept and as it is seen and understood in contemporary society. Contributors present both analysis of and strategies for managing techno-social conflict, and they also open up a number of fruitful new lines of thought around emerging technological, social, and even psychological forms.

In a searing 2012 Guardian op-ed, Hannah Azieb Pool took western fashion designers to task for their so-called African-inspired clothing. ‘Dear Fashion,’ she wrote, ‘Africa is a continent, not a country. Can you imagine anyone describing a fashion trend as “European-inspired?” Of course not. It’s meaningless.’ Now, with Fashion Cities Africa, Pool aims to correct the misconceptions about African fashion, providing key context for contemporary African fashion scenes and capturing the depth and breadth of truly African fashion. Tied to the Fashion Cities Africa exhibition at the Brighton Museum, the book gives much needed attention to four key African fashion scenes: Nairobi, Lagos, Casablanca, and Johannesburg – one from each region of the continent. Filled with interviews from leading African fashion designers, stylists, and commentators, alongside hundreds of exclusive street-style images, Fashion Cities Africa is a landmark book that should be celebrated in fashion houses the world over. “Fashion Cities Africa is an impressive insight into the intricacies of contemporary fashion in four African cities. It reaffirms, what has long been argued, that style in Africa matters.” Professor Carol Tulloch, Chelsea College of Arts, University of the Arts London

Spellbound Rethinking the Alphabet By Craig McDaniel and Jean Robertson
ISBN: 978-1-78320-549-3 150 Illustrations 240 pp | £30/$43 Paperback | Spring 2016 220 x 220mm eBook available Craig McDaniel is a painter, author and associate dean and professor of fine arts at Indiana University’s Herron School of Art and Design. Jean Robertson is the Chancellor’s Professor of Art History at Indiana University’s Herron School of Art and Design.
Asserting that written language is on the verge of its greatest change since the advent of the printing press, visual artist Craig McDaniel and art historian Jean Robertson bring us Spellbound – a collection of heavily illustrated essays that interrogate assumptions about language and typography. Rethinking the alphabet, they argue, means rethinking human communication. Looking beyond traditional typography, the authors conceive of new languages in which encoded pictorial images offer an unparalleled fusion of art and language. In a world of constant technological innovation offered by e-books, tablets, cell phones and the Internet, McDaniel and Robertson demonstrate provocatively what it would mean to move beyond the alphabet we know to a wholly new system of written communication.
Precarious Spaces The Arts, Social and Organizational Change Edited by Katarzyna Kosmala and Miguel Imas
ISBN: 978-1-78320-593-6 73 Illustrations 220 pp | £60/$86 Hardback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Katarzyna Kosmala is a curator, writer, and professor of culture, media and visual arts at the University of the West of Scotland. Miguel Imas is a senior lecturer in organizational and social psychology at Kingston University, London, and a research associate of the London Multimedia Lab at the London School of Economics.
Precarious Spaces addresses current concerns around the instrumentality and agency of art in the context of the precarity of daily life. The book offers a survey of socially and community-engaged art practices in South America, focusing in particular on Brazil, and contributes to the debate about the possibility for change through social, environmental and ecological solutions. The chapters present a wide spectrum of contemporary social agency models with an emphasis on detailed case studies and local histories. Chapters feature critical reflections on the spaces of urban voids, derelict buildings, self-built communities such as favela, and roadside occupations. “This book presents an important and timely documentation of political and community-based art practices, focusing on Latin America, where in the past few decades the most inspiring social and political experiments have taken place.” Oliver Ressler, artist and film-maker
The “I Wish to Say” Project Edited by Sheryl Oring
Visual Arts
Activating Democracy
63
Sheryl Oring is assistant professor of art at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, as well as a practising artist.
Driven by a powerful belief in the value of free expression, Sheryl Oring has for more than a decade been helping people across the US voice concerns about public affairs through her ‘I Wish to Say’ project. This book uses that project as the starting point for an exploration of a series of issues of public interest being addressed by artists today. It features essays by contributors ranging from art historians and practising artists to creators working in literature, political science, and architecture. All the contributors offer a different approach, but they share a primary goal of sparking a dialogue not just among makers of art, but among viewers, readers and the concerned public at large. The resulting volume will be an essential resource for politically engaged contemporary artists searching for innovative, cross-disciplinary ways of making and sharing art.
“Now that politics and performance art are one and the same, Sheryl Oring’s facilitation of public engagement through her Franklin Furnace Fund performance art work, ‘I Wish to Say,’ is a fitting and needed action. In this 2016 election season, I expect many folks will wish to say something to our presidential candidates!” Martha Wilson, Artist and Founding Director, Franklin Furnace Archive, Inc.

Life at the End of Life Finding Words Beyond Words By Marcia Brennan
ISBN: 978-1-78320-697-1 24 Illustrations 200 pp | £25/$35.50 Paperback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Marcia Brennan is professor of art history and religion at Rice University.
Artist and scholar Marcia Brennan serves as Artist in Residence at the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, and the experience of seeing, close-up, the transitional states and transformational visions involved in approaching end of life raised countless questions about the intersection of life, death, and art. Those questions are at the heart of this unique book. Bridging disparate fields, including art history, medical humanities, and religious studies, Life at the End of Life explores the ways in which art can provide a means for rendering otherwise abstract, deeply personal and spiritual experiences vividly concrete and communicable, even as they remain open-ended and transcendent. In the face of death, suffering, and uncertainty, Brennan shows how artistic expression can offer valuable aesthetic and metaphysical avenues for understanding and for making meaning.
Drawing in the Design Process Characterising Industrial and Educational Practice By Pamela Schenk
ISBN: 978-1-78320-679-7 51 Illustrations 260 pp | £40/$57 Hardback | Autumn 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Pamela Schenk is a visiting research professor at the School of Textiles and Design, Heriot Watt University, Scotland.
In the early days of the digital revolution in graphic design, many designers and teachers of design were convinced that the era of drawing on paper was over – that there would soon no longer be a place for craft-based drawing at any stage of the design process. It soon became apparent, however, that technological progress had not obviated the inherent value of drawing, and that, in fact, it opened up new avenues for convergent and hybrid drawing practices. This book traces the evolution of design-based drawing through analysis of a series of research projects from the 1980s to recent years that have sought to characterize the changing practices of design within various industries. Built on more than 300 interviews with designers, academics and design students, and an exhaustive analysis of thousands of drawings, it aims to generate discussion around historical and contemporary models of the design process. “An engaging study that provides comprehensive evidence of research into the field over a considerable period.” Paul Fieldsend-Danks, Norwich University of the Arts

Islamic Architecture on the Move
Even a casual observer can spy traces of Islamic architecture and design on buildings all over the world; a reminder that artistic traditions and visual culture have never been limited to their region or country of origin, but rather are highly diffusible. This book brings together scholars from architectural studies, design, art history and other fields to challenge and expand concepts of Islamic architecture. Ranging from eighteenth-century Ottoman tents to manifestations of Islamic motifs in 1960s Hawaii, this richly illustrated volume raises key questions about Islamic architecture, and, more broadly, about how we can rethink our understanding of material, artistic and cultural mobility in the modern world.
Christiane Gruber is associate professor of Islamic art in the History of Art Department at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

The Theatrical Dimension of Video Image By Mathilde Roman Translated by Charles Penwarden With a preface by Mieke Bal
ISBN: 978-1-78320-580-6 38 Illustrations 120 pp | £25/$36 Paperback | Spring 2016 170 x 230mm eBook available Mathilde Roman teaches at the Pavillon Bosio, Art and Scénographie, École Supérieure d’Arts Plastiques de la Ville de Monaco. Charles Penwarden is a Paris-based translator specializing in contemporary art.
In On Stage, Mathilde Roman explores the resonances that fields of theatre – stage, décor, space, gaze and more – have in the practice of video arts. Using these notions of theatre both as points of reference and as a prism through which video installation can be approached, Roman concentrates on questions often overlooked by art historians, theorists, and critics. These include questions of exhibition architecture, display, viewer experience, temporality and the importance of the gaze. Each chapter is articulated around analyses of video installations created by artists, from Michael Snow to Maïder Fortuné, and Dan Graham to Laurent Grasso. With a preface by Mieke Bal, On Stage is an important contribution to the fields of art, history and film studies.
