  • Publisher: Springer

This collection of essays addresses emergent trends in the meeting of the disciplines of phenomenology and performance. It brings together major scholars in the field, dealing with phenomenological approaches to dance, theatre, performance, embodiment, audience, and everyday performance of self. It argues that despite the wide variety of philosophical, ontological, epistemological, historical and methodological differences across the field of phenomenology, certain tendencies and impulses are required for an investigation to stand as truly phenomenological. These include: description of experience; a move towards fundamental conditions or underlying essences; and an examination of taken-for-granted presuppositions. The book is aimed at scholars and practitioners of performance looking to deepen their understanding of phenomenological concepts and methods, and philosophers concerned with issues of embodiment, performativity and enaction.

The Blueprint

Celebrated journalist Erin Caselli's uncompromising assault against injustice had made her a star. When the assignment came to interview American hero, Steven Shaw, Caselli relished the opportunity to separate the myth from the man. Little did she know she was about to take a roller-coaster ride through the bright lights and dark recesses of a planet in turmoil. The drama sweeps across continents to take you into the world of the Russian mafia, drug cartels and corporate halls of power and politics. The characters you will come to love or loathe are as original as the story that delivers them with Technicolor ferocity. The issues Steve Sullivan presents with a master-storyteller's artistry will have you thinking late into the night.

Grant’s Lieutenants

A companion to Grant's Lieutenants: From Cairo to Vicksburg, this new volume assesses Union generalship during the final two years of the Civil War. Steven Woodworth, one of the war's premier historians, is joined by a team of distinguished scholars-Mark Grimsley, John Marszalek, and Earl Hess, among others-who critique Ulysses S. Grant's commanders in terms of both their working relationship with their general-in-chief and their actual performances. The book covers well-known Union field generals like William T. Sherman, George Thomas, George Meade, and Philip Sheridan, as well as the less-prominent Franz Sigel, Horatio Wright, Edward Ord, and Benjamin Butler. In addition, it includes an ic...

When Confederate Major General J.E.B. Stuart said "North Carolina has done nobly in this army," he had one of his own men to thank: Brigadier General James Byron Gordon. A protege of Stuart, Gordon was the consummate nineteenth-century landowner, politician, and businessman. Despite a lack of military training, he rose rapidly through the ranks and, as the commander of all North Carolina cavalrymen in the Army of Northern Virginia, he helped bring unparalleled success to Stuart's famed Confederate cavalry. This updated biography, originally published in 1996, chronicles Gordon's early life and military career and, through his men, takes a fresh look at the vaunted Army of Northern Virginia--its battles, controversies, and troops. This second edition includes additional source material that has come to light and a roster of Gordon's 1st North Carolina Cavalry.
