The Relationship Manager
Authors: Reed Matt , Langford Joss
Published: January 2022

The development of an in-depth partnership requires a professional approach to partner management for long term sustainability. Usually the best way to achieve this is to have an individual in the company who is responsible for managing the development of the relationship with the university partner.
Working in Partnership
Authors: Reed Matt , Langford Joss
Published: January 2022

In this section, we focus on some simple techniques for bringing people together. We look at workshops you could use to foster co-creation around shared problems, surface some of the assumptions your company staff and university staff may bring to the partnership, and provide some initial guidance on confidentiality. You must at the same time, keep informal channels open, to keep listening and learning, and to be authentic. There is a tight rope here that you must walk.

Art and Criticism in the Machine Age: The Tyro
Authors: O'Donnell Nathan
Published: January 2022

This chapter explores Lewis’s second editorial venture, The Tyro, a magazine which formed one component of a much broader – though largely unfinished – satirical science-fiction project, postulating a future society of ‘Tyros’, living in caste formation on a distant planet. This chapter examines this distinctly professionalist critical project in relation to Harold Perkin’s sociohistoric analysis of the ‘professionalisation’ of British society in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. For Perkin, the professional project is bound up with the processes of industrial rationalisation, the corporatisation of state and business interests, and the evolution of a ‘professional ideal’ (privileging knowledge, expertise, and human resources). Across the Tyro project, Lewis reflected upon these processes and transformations. This chapter considers the influence of the scientific management movement, and the already mythologised figure of Henry Ford, upon Lewis’s thought, casting the world of the Tyros as a professional utopia (or dystopia), organised along syndicalist lines. In this respect, the Tyro anticipates The Art of Being Ruled, in which Lewis went on to formulate a proposal for a particularly noxious societal system, an occupational caste system; a disquieting vision which is explored and traced here – in varying ways – across the work of a number of contemporary critics.
Brides of Dracula
Authors: Ellinger Kat
Published: January 2022

This chapter offers up a comprehensive production history of the film. It includes exclusive interviews from director Harry Kümel and star Danielle Ouimet, as well as a rundown of several aspects of the production process. The chapter begins by laying out the profiles of each major actor involved in the production, including Ouimet's co-stars Delphine Seyrig, John Karlen, Andrea Rau, and the supporting cast. It then turns to the filming of the piece, showing how the director's practical way of working with a team of actors, who were motivated from a more emotional artistic place, caused difficulties on set, especially for the less-experienced performers like Ouimet. The two separate locations used for the film are also explored, as well as the ways in which they are seamlessly blended together into a single place. Finally, the chapter touches on the score composed by François de Roubaix.
Twins of Evil
Authors: Ellinger Kat
Published: January 2022

This chapter contextualises Daughters of Darkness within a framework of vampire, Gothic, and decadent literature. It also discusses the literary and mythic origins of the female vampire and how these have been applied to the characterisation of Countess Elizabeth Bathory in the film. Even though the director states he was not looking to books like Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla to inform him when he wrote the screenplay for the film, he does admit to having read it. Therefore, it is not surprising that some parallels can be made between the film and Le Fanu's text. Additionally, Daughters of Darkness not only shares an affiliation to the likes of Carmilla, ancient myth, and some of the earliest examples of female vampires in literature, but it also delves into the territory of fin de siècle decadent writers, in particular Charles Baudelaire, Jean Lorrain, and Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly.
‘Pasts and Futures’
Authors: Fraiture Pierre-Philippe
Published: January 2022

What is historical time and how was its traditional – evolutionist - perception maintained during the colonial period but also contested in the years that led to the decolonization of Africa? These two questions inform this chapter. The first one is meta-critical and aims to explore, via thinkers operating at the intersection of history, memory studies, and philosophy (e.g. Dipesh Chakrabarty, Peter Fritzsche, François Hartog, VY Mudimbe, and Stefan Tanaka), the epistemological factors presiding over the development of history but also anthropology and museology during the colonial period; the second question relies more substantially on texts disseminated during the 1945-1960 era by French and African intellectuals like Balandier (‘La Situation coloniale’), Lévi-Strauss (Race et histoire), Ki-Zerbo (‘Histoire et conscience nègre’), and Sartre (‘Orphée noir’). The notion of progress, in its Christian/missionary and secular meanings, is examined through the prism of the two temporal notions – ‘space of experience’ and ‘horizon of expectation’ – theorized by Koselleck in Futures Past. It will be shown that post-war Africanist scholarship, albeit still reliant on developmentalist grids, was able to emancipate itself from the racist tropes that had hitherto been used to define Africa and African cultures.
Introduction Mapping the Amazon after the Rubber Boom
Authors: Smith Amanda M.
Published: January 2022

The introduction outlines the book’s basic premises, its theoretical framework and organization. After the decline of the Amazon Rubber Boom (1850-1920), there was an increase in novels taking place in the region, written by authors who travelled to the Amazonian frontiers of their respective countries. These novels share both a preoccupation with the insufficiency of paper maps for navigating Amazonia and a cartographic impulse to map the region narratively. The introduction describes the geocritical methods applied to understanding how such novels negotiated and contested institutional projections onto Amazonia. A brief overview of spatial theory justifies the claim that those representations participated in the production of a variety of kinds of spaces in the region. The introduction also situates the project’s interventions in a larger body of scholarship on Amazonian literature and cultural production.
Animal laborans
Authors: Hughes Edward J.
Published: January 2022

In The Man without Content, Giorgio Agamben addresses the question of the progressively more invasive hold in modern times of the world of work. In Ancient Greece, he explains, work held less privileged status in the understanding of active life. Reading Aristotle thus allows Agamben to see how man could indeed be defined as a workless being. Paul Nizan’s Antoine Bloyé (1933), by contrast, provides a striking depiction of man as animal laborans. The novel’s narrator explains how, for a period of fifteen years, the eponymous protagonist has worked unreflectingly as a railway company employee. Worklessness is the state that least applies to a character whose actions are unleisurely and aimed at an end, whereas the happy man, for Aristotle, is drawn to ‘the activity of reason which is contemplative’. Late in the novel, Nizan proposes childhood as an egalitarian space. More specifically in relation to the overall configuration of the present book, by positing equality as preceding a conventionally programmed move into the inegalitarian, he anticipates the central premise of Rancière’s Le Maître ignorant. Nizan’s novel, then, argues against hierarchy in that it dramatizes the psychological undermining of a protagonist subjected to narrow, societal dressage.
The Potential Lives of Marcel Bénabou
Authors: Kemp Anna
Published: January 2022

This chapter considers Bénabou’s three major publications: Pourquoi je n’ai écrit aucun de mes livres, Jette ce livre avant qu’il soit trop tard and Jacob, Ménahem et Mimoun. Une épopée familiale. It argues that these three texts, taken together, explore Bénabou's relationship to the rules, routines and traditions that structure his existence, and document his attempts to transform the constraints of tradition into the basis for creativity. For Bénabou, traditions - cultural, familial, literary - become the ground for innovation that allows him to begin to articulate his longed-for singularity as a writer. However, it is not a fully edged, singular authorial self that emerges in Bénabou’s writing, so much as a flock of potential selves. While, on the one hand, there is a powerful drive to a harmonious unity, Bénabou’s life-writing ultimately resists final form in order to cultivate form as a starting point that is full of potential life.
Constructing femininities Agency and transgression
Authors: Broderick Céire
Published: January 2022

Combining Mimi Schipper’s notion of ‘pariah femininities’ and Sonia Montecino’s concept of the huacha—a female subject that is void of agency and history—this chapter examines the constructions of accepted and transgressive femininities in the societies illustrated in Valdivieso’s and Frías’ novels. Through this close reading, the relevance of the challenges faced by women in the texts to embody an acceptable femininity to the contemporary period in which the authors are writing is highlighted.
Brand Shakespeare
Authors: Owens Rebekah
Published: January 2022

In this chapter, the reader will be shown some films that use recent history as a setting, adding a further layer of meaning to the story from the cultural resonances associated with that historical past. Using Ralph Fiennes’ film of Coriolanus which made comparison to the Balkan wars of the 1990s and Richard Loncraine’s film of Richard III which uses as its backdrop a version of Nazi Germany, the reader will be encouraged to observe how those settings render the play more relevant to our own time, despite the early modern language. There is also a consideration of the cultural coin of Shakespeare, how his works are so well-known that Shakespeare is recognisable as a distinctive brand. There follows a discussion of the film that exploits this, Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo and Juliet which deploys modern marketing techniques such as camera effects reminiscent of the music video and the visual shorthand of advertising to tell the story of the play.
Conclusion
Authors: Owens Rebekah
Published: January 2022

The chapter will discuss a film that, at first glance, has very little in common with the Shakespeare original. Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is rendered by Leonard Bernstein, Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins into a musical and retitled as West Side Story and so it appears that there are only superficial links with the original story which concerns itself with the illicit love of two members of warring factions. The reader will be shown how this film resembles the original by considering the question raised in the introduction — that of Shakespeare’s perceived universality which suggests that the author and his plays dealt with issues that were of universal concern and dealt with matters such as love that crossed cultural and historical boundaries. In choosing to tell the story through the medium of music and dance, Bernstein, Wise and Robbins will be shown to have retold the story through visual and aural means that render it on a par with the original play in its use of nonnaturalistic devices.

The mummified remains of Takabuti were intact from the day she was embalmed until 1835 when she was ‘unrolled’. Therefore her body and hair were protected from the elements by layers of bandages and resin for c. 2,500 years. The hair is described in the ...
How Did Takabuti Die?
Authors: Loynes Robert
Published: January 2022

How did Takabuti die? Although initial studies revealed no definitive cause of death, recent analysis has provided intriguing new data: the presence of a penetrating injury in the back of the left upper rib cage that had been sealed with a pack of resin mixed with granular material. There is no evidence of wound-healing, so this is the most likely cause of death. New research attempts to identify the weapons/instruments involved and concludes the Takabuti was murdered. Imaging analysis has also provided information about the mummification procedure. At the time of Takabuti’s death, it was customary to remove the brain by means of a metal hook inserted up the nose. However, in this instance, the brain was extracted more unusually via the foramen magnum at the base of the skull, and exceptionally, the neck area was then filled in with a compact mass of resin.
Mummies of this period are frequently filled with a mixture of mud, sawdust, aromatic resins and aromatic substances such as cinnamon. The original investigators of Takabuti found that the body was filled with a mixture of powders: in the current project, the main component in abdominal samples obtained from the mummy was sawdust.
Weak Verse
Authors: Coffey Bysshe Inigo
Published: January 2022

Chapter 6 explores Epipsychidion’s experiments with rhyming. From Alastor to Epipsychidion one can discern the same concerns for form and for the limit-points of manifest phenomena. But it is with Epipsychidion that Shelley tests and reflects on how he is writing. The chapter argues that the poem is strongly influenced by Pope’s ‘Eloisa to Abelard’ (1717). The poem’s searching self-consciousness results in a poetics of equivocation, which emerges from Shelley’s familiarity with Samuel Daniel’s pamphlet ‘A Defence of Rime’ (1603). While charting and enacting the arguments of these poets, Shelley diversifies his experiments with the invisible and unseen. He explores the idea of a poem’s susceptibility to power over or subjection to its own expressive repertoire and ideas.
Between Recognition and Co-Optation: Translations of Present-Day Galician Poetry in the Spanish Literary System
Authors: Lourido Isaac
Published: January 2022

This chapter analyses the Galician cultural space understood as a contact zone between literary systems. Contemporary Galician poetry is taken as the central point of this study, which focuses on the emergence of a new generation of writers and the international projection of several renowned poets, as well as the growth of translation into Spanish of Galician poetry books. The real functions of these intersystemic transfers are identified from a review of books translated during the period 2013–19 and an analysis of the main translation strategies used. Furthermore, the conclusions offer insights into the symbolic conflict between the Spanish and the Galician literary systems, taking into account their differences in terms of legitimacy, international recognition, and ability to co-opt.
The Double Face of Translation in Joan Maragall
Authors: Newcomb Robert Patrick
Published: January 2022

This chapter analyzes the apparent contradictions, or double face, of translation in the work of Catalan writer Joan Maragall (1860–1911) – an understudied topic within Maragall scholarship. It first describes the author’s rejection of self-translation, specifically in the Iberian context, and his assertion that communication across related forms of Ibero-Romance (Catalan, Castilian, and a composite Galician-Portuguese) is possible without recourse to translation. The chapter then examines Maragall’s statements on literary translation as they relate to his own translations, particularly of German texts into Catalan and, in one instance, of a French text into Castilian. It concludes by attributing the inconsistencies in Maragall’s statements on translation to the failure of his Catalanist principles, as applied to language and translation, to fully account for the complexities of his bilingual literary life.
Revisiting Red Clydeside
Authors: Griffin Paul
Published: January 2022

This chapter asserts how revisiting histories such as Red Clydeside, during 1919, reveals complexities, tensions and possibilities that were symptomatic of UK histories of race and labour movements during this period. The archival research considered here provides a relational account of labour militancy and racialised conflicts. The chapter compares and contrasts the 1919 strike action for a shorter working week with a ‘race riot’ between local and foreign sailors. These events were connected by timing and location but also through the involvement of trade unions and leadership figures. This allows the chapter to critically examine, through comparison and cross referencing, the varying influences and activisms present within and beyond Glasgow during the early twentieth century. Importantly, this comparison also raises the longer-term trajectories of labour grievances during this period, and wider spatiality of activisms during this time, to foreground the ambivalent and contested nature of working class demands, identities and histories. By doing so, the chapter indicates how these events were not spontaneous, nor isolated, but intimately connected with each other and wider trends and events elsewhere.
C. L. R. James, the Mass Strike of 1919 in Colonial Trinidad and The Case for West Indian Self-Government
Authors: Høgsbjerg Christian
Published: January 2022

In colonial Trinidad in 1919 rising industrial turmoil culminated in a rolling mass strike that would shake this outpost of the British Empire to its foundations. Though often located as an important part of Trinidadian or at best Caribbean labour history—a precursor to the powerful wave of labour rebellions that swept the Anglophone colonial Caribbean in the 1930s—Christian Hogsbjerg’s chapter situates the strike through the prism of colonial, transnational and global labour history. In the strike's aftermath, the social democratic Trinidad Workingmen’s Association grew into a mass organization led by the charismatic Captain Arthur Andrew Cipriani. Hogsbjerg explores how this mass nationalist working-class movement attracted the attention of the young writer and teacher C.L.R. James, who would become a leading anti-colonialist thinker, writing a biography of Cipriani, later abridged and published as The Case for West Indian Self-Government (1933). Yet this text strangely overlooked the strike of 1919, being only with James's turn to Marxism in the 1930s that he came to appreciate the strike’s full historical significance. In 1937, James would publish his pioneering socialist history of the Communist International, World Revolution, which articulates James's evolving understanding of 1919 as a global year of revolutionary contestation.
The ‘Soviet Ark’ in Context
Authors: Rooney Daniel J. , Johnson Jeffrey A.
Published: January 2022

In December 1919 the U.S. government, in the wake of the famed mail bombings (including to Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer) and the earlier Seattle General Strike, took a dramatic step. As a part of the broader anti-radical campaign under the Espionage and Sedition Acts, 249 known leftists and many Russians swept up in the famed Palmer Raids - specifically socialists and anarchists - boarded the Buford and set sail for Europe. Among the passengers were notable radicals like Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman. This work by the Departments of Justice and Labor stands is an important, though underexplored, physical act and moment that institutionalized the first American “Red Scare,” and revealed the broader tensions surrounding “loyalty,” the immigrant population, and anti-radicalism.
Educating the Peace
Authors: Murphy Jude , Todd Nigel
Published: January 2022

This chapter will examine how 1919 transformed British adult education, being rooted in a dialogue between the trenches and domestic politics, prompting a movement for widening access to education. Framed within a Wilsonian view of a more democratic and peaceful world, the immediate post-war context generated opportunities for adult education initiatives. Firstly, the cooperative movement created the Co-operative College in a move that had been a longstanding goal. Secondly, the London County Council established City Lit targeting amongst others disabled veterans on their courses. Thirdly, women’s movement activists built on greater female participation in the public sphere, illustrated by the admission of women students to Ruskin College. Fourthly, the encyclopaedic ‘1919 Report’ of the Ministry of Reconstruction, triggered the first generation of 'mature students' with 33,688 ex-soldiers grant aided to attend Higher Education between 1920-23. This generation revived campus students’ societies, especially those that promoted the League of Nations, and formed the National Union of Students to rebuild international peace. The chapter will also examine how the transition between war and peace and the intellectual climate also transformed existing adult education organisations, scrutinizing the radicalisation of the Workers’ Educational Association.
The Barracks
Authors: Cherry Brigid
Published: January 2022

Chapter 3 explores the themes of community and identity, considering the discourses organized around different groups on the island. The first section in this chapter discusses the spatial and temporal dislocations that introduce new communities of characters which, at the same time, fill in missing pieces of the narrative jigsaw. In particular, this section analyses how the Other is a foregrounded concept on Lost. The discussion takes in the way Lost encodes difference, and thus destabilizes or unsettles the social and cultural order. The character Juliet is used as a case study in a discussion of gender and class differences, and this leads into a discussion in the second section concerning arguments about gender and reproductive technology. A significant theme in feminist accounts of the science fiction genre, this positions Juliet as an important boundary-crossing figure in the narrative. The discussion of Juliet is contrasted with an analysis of the representations of the fertile mother figure Claire, and Rousseau, the bereaved mother who has lost her child.
Every Savage Can Dance
Authors: Tontiplaphol Betsy Winakur
Published: January 2022

The introduction critiques literary historians’ tendency to privilege Jane Austen’s representations of social dance when they inquire into the role of dance in nineteenth-century literature. The era’s most broadly visible dancers were the continental ballet professionals who captivated English audiences with their performances at public theaters, not private assemblies, and the discussion begins by identifying the balletic elements (including potential references to Jean-George Noverre and the ballet d’action entitled La fille mal gardée) in Pride and Prejudice’s characterization and plotting. Then it describes the various formal and ideological factors that rendered poets (more so than novelists) and ballet professionals “sister artists” throughout the nineteenth century. Finally, the piece speculates about the reasons that underlie scholars’ reluctance to examine the influence of ballet on nineteenth-century verse and explains the merit in disrupting that critical tradition, which effectively dismisses nineteenth-century poets’ frequent references to dance as meaningless metaphor or arbitrary realist texture.
Jack London
Authors: Bercaw Edwards Mary K.
Published: January 2022

Seagoing craft fill Jack London’s works. In his writing and his storytelling, London was always conscious of his audience. He gleefully pokes fun at the incomprehensibility of nautical terminology, at the same time as he embraces it. London also questions the popular view that the language of mariners is full of wicked oaths, blasphemy, and vulgarity. He can certainly populate his sea fiction with oaths, but what he captures so beautifully, and far more often, is the exultation felt by a sailor for a well-sailed vessel. This chapter draws on the scholarship of Jeanne Campbell Reesman, Jay Williams, and others as well as on archival research at the Huntington Library and Utah State University. It investigates London’s discussions of nautical terminology, his writings on navigation, the nautical-influenced form of Pidgin that he calls Bêche de Mer English and other languages he encountered in the South Pacific, the strong influence of Rudyard Kipling’s and Robert Louis Stevenson’s sea writings, and above all his language of exultation and his use of sailors’ work songs.
Labour Rescued
Authors: Davis Mary , Foster John
Published: January 2022

This chapter discusses economic policies, public spending (the May committee’s proposals) and the reaction to the fall of the Labour government. The economic problems in the wake of the Wall Street crash were debated in the Macmillan Committee on Finance and Industry on which Bevin sat. He signed both the main report submitted in 1931, (which offered little) and the minority report drafted by Keynes. The May Committee proposed drastic cuts in public spending including cuts in unemployment benefit. Both the TUC and the TGWU rejected these proposals as did many Labour MPs. However MacDonald, Thomas and Snowden supported the cuts and joined with the Tories to form a National Government in order to implement them. The Labour government fell and the number of its MP’s fell to 46 in the 1931 general election.
Henry Vaughan and the Art of Allusion
Authors: Wilcher Robert
Published: January 2022

This chapter examines Vaughan’s use of words, images, and verse forms taken from other writers in his secular poems and argues that most of them can be understood as examples of imitation or allusion rather than plagiarism. The differences between simple borrowing, verbal echo, and functional allusion are demonstrated. The chapter also argues against the common view that Vaughan began as a follower of John Donne, showing that his primary influences were Ben Jonson and such Caroline poets as Thomas Randolph and William Habington. It is suggested that he also admired the early poetry of John Milton, but that later allusions in the prose and devotional verse reveal hostility towards this supporter of regicide and propagandist for the Puritan regime.
Henry Vaughan and the Book of Nature
Authors: Wilcher Robert
Published: January 2022

Using examples from poems by Spenser and Wordsworth, this chapter shows how Vaughan’s poetic practice looked back to traditional views of nature and forward to Romantic ways of perceiving and interpreting the natural world. His moments of empathy with non-human creatures and plants, which led nineteenth-century readers to regard him as a nature poet, are contrasted with his more habitual treatment of Nature as a revelation of the attributes of its divine Creator or a teacher of Christian truth. Various examples of natural description and imagery in his poetry are explored and trees are chosen to demonstrate the many ways in which natural details are processed in his poetry: as topographical features, metaphors, formal similes, and as spiritual, moral and political emblems or symbols.
Updating the Legacy of the Black Arts Movement and Staying Relevant
Authors: Salamoun Jiri
Published: January 2022

This chapter argues for reconsideration of Ishmael Reed’s position to Black Arts movement. It shows that in his novel Japanese by Spring, Reed nurtures a key theme of the movement (reconnection to Africa) even at times when the movement itself could not connect to Africa and when such a goal was perceived as outdated. The chapter is grounded in contemporary research on BAM and ultimately argues for a closer connection between Reed and BAM. In doing so, it updates the common misconception regarding Reed’s relationship with BAM and claims that his works should be included in the recent research on the Black Arts movement.
Moving Verses: An Introduction to the Poetry-Film Nexus in Argentina
Authors: Bollig Ben
Published: January 2022

This book addresses some of the many and varied ways in which filmmakers in Argentina engage with poetry on screen. It asks, in the broadest terms, how film and poetry transform each another, how these two expressive media behave when placed into conversation, and what this tells us about the relationship between the two art forms. This is a dialogue that I refer to elsewhere the “poetry-film nexus.” How, to put it shortly, do directors film poetry? The introduction outlines the theoretical background and cultural context to the case studies found in the chapters, also summarized here.
Conclusion: Intermediality and the Screening of Difference
Authors: Bollig Ben
Published: January 2022

This chapter gives an overview of the analyses and arguments presented throughout the volume, alongside a reading of the recent documentary film by Laura Citarella and Mercedes Halfon, Las poetas visitan a Juana Bignozzi (2019), which offers a further exploration of the cinematic presentation of poetry. This relationship to the other sketched in Las poetas, of respectful challenge, reproduces that between poetry and film that we have been trying to tease out in this volume: the poetry-film nexus as an aesthetics of difference.
Exile as a ‘Forced Choice’
Authors: Wimbush Antonia
Published: January 2022

Chapter Three offers a new approach to Guadeloupean writer Gisèle Pineau’s L’Exil selon Julia(1996), a text which has already attracted significant attention for its insights into exile and gender. The central focus of this chapter is a study of the motives for the Pineau family’s migration from Guadeloupe to metropolitan France in the 1960s, and it is structured around the question of choice in exile. Analysing the causal relationship between war and displacement for three generations of Pineau women (the unnamed narrator, her mother Daisy, and her grandmother Julia), the chapter argues that their mobility which arises as a result of male participation in the First and Second World Wars has complex, long-lasting, and, at times, even unexpectedly beneficial impacts on the family.
The Four Problems of Nina Bouraoui
Authors: Wimbush Antonia
Published: January 2022

Chapter Four explores the connections between exile, gender, and sexuality in three of Franco-Algerian writer Nina Bouraoui’s autofictional narratives: Le Jour du séisme (1999), Garçon manqué (2000), and Mes mauvaises pensées (2005). The chapter also positions her self-writing of gendered exile within the wider Algerian context of exile and mass displacement during the twentieth century, as a result of colonial and postcolonial conflict. The focal point of this chapter is the racial, gendered, sexual, and linguistic hybridity of Bouraoui’s literary heroine, a character who spans the three texts. Hybridity equates to exclusion because she is always defined by what she is not, which engenders a sense of lack and malaise. Comparing between the three texts offers the opportunity for a sustained discussion about how ideas of masculinity, femininity, and sexual desire evolve in Bouraoui’s writing as her narrative persona progresses into adulthood.
Transgenerational Exile in Abla Farhoud’s Autofiction
Authors: Wimbush Antonia
Published: January 2022

Chapter Seven offers an alternative perspective to francophone postcolonial literature and culture by examining the specific case of Quebec, the postcolonial status of which has been contested in recent years. This chapter thus contributes to the decentring of exilic literature by examining literary experiences of exile beyond metropolitan France. The chapter analyses the intersections between ageing, education, and exile in Lebanese-born writer Abla Farhoud’s autofictional works. Adopting a comparative approach between the texts, I trace exile over different generations of female characters as they are depicted in Toutes celles que j’étais (2015) and Au grand soleil cachez vos filles (2017), questioning how women at different life stages, who have inevitably received differing levels of education, experience geographic and metaphorical exile as a form of estrangement. Farhoud’s autofiction is yet to be examined critically given its recent publication date. This chapter, therefore, makes an important contribution to scholarship on Farhoud’s writing.
“An Assemblage of Every Kind”
Authors: DeSimone Alison C.
Published: January 2022

Chapter 2 argues that the pasticcio opera tradition, which began in 1706, represented an organized form of musical miscellany. Analyses of the pasticcio opera tradition from the perspective of musical miscellany reveal how these operas were compiled and the role that both performers and composers played in their creation.
The Renaissance Happened in (Some of) the Magazines
Authors: Young John K.
Published: January 2022

John K. Young poses a series of editorial questions arising from the intersection of periodical and African Americanist studies in “The Renaissance Happened in (Some of) the Magazines.” How might we conceive of Harlem Renaissance “little” magazines along a spectrum of modernist magazine production? How should we edit the poems, stories, and essays of Harlem Renaissance figures within the run of a magazine, in such a way that editors can historicize that publishing context, in other words asking what it would have meant to encounter this text within its original publication history? Finally, how should editors of Harlem Renaissance works respond to the unique challenges posed by forms that are more ephemeral and diffuse than (many) books, especially when doing so often requires culling material from a wide range of archival sources? This kind of work, Young suggests, can position the works of the Renaissance within a more accurately historical framework, demonstrating both the extent of cross-racial textual production and circulation and the material constraints that often kept such cultural encounters temporary and contingent.
Clad in the Beautiful Dress One Expects
Authors: Tangedal Ross K.
Published: January 2022

Ross K. Tangedal interrogates a particular textual controversy that grew into an editorial controversy—the endings to Nella Larsen’s 1929 novel Passing. In “Clad in the Beautiful Dress One Expects: Editing and Curating the Harlem Renaissance Text,” Tangedal surveys five editorial notes that accompanied five versions of Larsen’s novel, spanning over twenty years, in order to show the urgent need for greater bibliographical and editorial attention when investigating the Harlem Renaissance. Working without a complete textual record, a sound bibliographical foundation, or within the confines of a scholarly edition, the scholars who edited these versions present a case study in editorial controversy by virtue of their personal choices. Though an editor does, and must, make choices when preparing a text for publication, these scholars (rather than editors) made choices without the benefit of sound bibliographical evidence; all the more reason to demand a more thorough textual examination of the Harlem Renaissance. At the heart of this essay are issues of audience, reception, market dynamics, and access, as Tangedal argues for a more rigorous investigation into the dynamic relationship between the textuality and the materiality of Harlem Renaissance texts and the writers who created them.
First description of the male of Cyclocosmia ricketti (Araneae, Halonoproctidae) from China
Authors: Lin Ye-Jie , Yu Linrui , Yan Xunyou , Li Shuqiang
Published: January 2022

The genus Cyclocosmia Ausserer, 1871 of the spider family Halonoproctidae Pocock, 1901 includes ten known species from North America and Asia. Since Cyclocosmia ricketti was described by Pocock in 1901, no males of this species have ever been reported.

The male of Cyclocosmia ricketti is described for the first time, based on a specimen collected near the type locality in Fujian Province, China. A morphological description and illustrations are given.

Often working in multiple roles and operating at multiple scales, educational developers deal with layered tensions and a complex context that can be difficult for an individual or team to reconcile. In May 2020, the authors participated in a cross-institutional scholarly project, the Pandemic Educational Development Research Collaborative (PEDRC), designed to explore the impact of multiple crises (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic and our collective civil and political unrest) and associated large-scale instructional changes on educational developers and their work. The Contexts for Agency framework reflects the project’s emergent theme that the circumstances in which we act have considerable influence on our decision-making. Specifically, the framework identifies identity, institution, and impact as critical contexts for the decisions educational developers make. The authors highlight multiple benefits to analyzing what we know—and what we don’t know—about our respective contexts and offer suggestions for applying the framework using a guide for structured reflection.

The study explored the critical determinants of behavioral intention and willingness to use smart wearable devices among Indian youth. Data were collected using a survey instrument on the youth aged between 20-30 years (N=262) in India. The results showed, performance expectancy, hedonic motivation, and habits impacted the behavioural intention of the youth. Facilitating conditions impacted the youth’s willingness to use. Behavioural intentions of the youth impacted their willingness to use smart wearable devices. Male youth moderated the effect of performance expectancy on behavioural intentions. Gender and Purpose of-Use moderated the effect of hedonic motivation and habits on behavioural intention and behavioural intention on willingness to use. Only health and fitness moderated the effect of facilitating condition on willingness to use smart wearable devices among youth. Though the study is limited to the Indian context, its implications can benefit the wearable commerce providers in designing, positioning, and marketing the products in developing economies.

In the paper there are descriptions of the different types of sects to fully understand how they differ and which is the focal center of the movements. Subsequently, we will analyze the techniques of mental control and manipulation that take place in the different sectarian groupings and how it works and what is NLP (neurolinguistic programming) used very frequently by leaders to lure followers and consequently to keep them within the group. Finally, the problems of this phenomenon will be highlighted to sensitize the community to the issue under consideration.
Restorative justice and criminal mediation in the new criminal process and the figure of the criminal mediator
Authors: Agnese Arianna
Published: January 2022

The criminal trial is too often a labyrinth full of obstacles for the crime victim who, due to scarce economic and human resources, takes too long to restore the balance disturbed by the commission of the crime. The criminal trial is currently unable even to protect victims from the repetition of the crime. A new institution is on the horizon, with the delegation law of 27 September 2021 n. 134 the systematic introduction of Restorative Justice and Criminal Mediation is envisaged. The preparation and training of the criminal mediator will be fundamental, a multifaceted figure who must know not only the rules of law but also the sociological and psychological sciences - criminalistic for the treatment of the offender and the victim. The first fundamental lesson lies in knowing the fundamental principles of non-verbal communication to then be able to start active listening with the parts of the mediation.
Free-flap breast reconstruction: cost analysis in the Swiss healthcare system
Authors: Scampa Matteo , Petrou Ilias G. , Modarressi Ali
Published: January 2022

AIM OF THE STUDY
Breast cancer is the most common type of malignancy among women. Mastectomy maintains an essential role in oncological therapy and led to the development of breast reconstruction procedures. The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) free flap became in the last decade a popular approach for breast reconstruction. Although this procedure is known to be more complex than other techniques, it offers one of the highest patient satisfaction rates. However, the cost-effectiveness of this technique has rarely been assessed; and the real cost coverage by health insurance has never been studied. This study estimated the real cost of immediate DIEP free flap breast reconstruction after unilateral mastectomy and evaluated the cost coverage by healthcare insurers according to the diagnosis-related group (DRG) reimbursement scheme in Switzerland.

METHODS
Medical files of 20 consecutive patients who underwent immediate DIEP free-flap breast reconstruction between 2012 and 2017 were reviewed retrospectively. Billing data according to DRG rates were compared with an estimation of the real cost generated by the procedure.

RESULTS
The mean charge according to the DRG model for one-stage DIEP free-flap reconstruction was CHF 29,573 (CHF 19,256–64,741). The mean real estimated cost was CHF 33,416 (CHF 20,633–47,036). Seven different DRG codes were used between 2012 and 2017, each offering a different definition and compensation.

CONCLUSION
The DRG pricing scheme evolves through annual revisions. Progressively, more specific codes were created and used, allowing a better cost coverage for the procedure. Since 2017, the use of the dedicated code J01B has resulted in adequate cost coverage of the procedure. Since it has been widely accepted that DIEP breast reconstruction has advantages such as high patient satisfaction, we encourage the inclusion of this procedure in the reconstructive arsenal of breast cancer centres in Switzerland.
Description of Bone Health Changes in a Cohort of Children With Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM)

Published: January 2022

Objectives:

To qualitatively describe bone health changes in children with acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) and assess relationships with muscle mass and strength and functional performance.

Methods:

Retrospective analysis of a cohort of 79 children with AFM seen consecutively in one specialized academic center between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2019.

Results:

Of the 79 participants who were aged 4 months to 21 years old, 41 (52%) had bone density measured by dual energy absorptiometry (DXA) and 32 of them (78%) were diagnosed with low bone mass (LBM). We recorded 25 fractures that occurred after onset of neurologic deficit in 14 of the children in the cohort (18%). Lean muscle mass correlated with bone mass and functional performance as assessed by Physical Abilities and Mobility Scale (PAMS) but not with muscle strength as assessed by manual muscle testing (MMT). Bone density in the lower limbs was associated with ambulatory status.

Conclusion:

Children with AFM have a high likelihood of muscle and bone loss and frequently sustain pathologic fractures. Bone health in children with AFM should be carefully monitored, and efforts should be made to preserve bone mass and maximize muscle mass.
Satisfação dos Utentes em Mamografia Espetral com Contraste – Estudo de Caso no Hospital Distrital de Santarém
Authors: Medinas Luisa
Published: January 2022

As inovações tecnológicas permitiram o desenvolvimento de uma nova aplicação da mamografia digital, a Mamografia Espetral com Contraste (CESM- Contrast-enhanced spectral mamografhy). Este método de deteção de lesões mamárias fornece informação morfológica e funcional que, anteriormente, só era obtida através da Ressonância Magnética Mamária (RMM) e é uma mais-valia na luta contra o cancro da mama. O Hospital Distrital de Santarém (HDS) foi pioneiro na implementação do CESM em Portugal, exame já de rotina em unidades de saúde a nível internacional. Foi elaborado um Estudo de Caso no HDS com o intuito de avaliar a mais-valia técnica e os fatores que influenciam a satisfação dos utentes em relação ao CESM, comparativamente com a RMM a 124 utentes que realizaram o CESM. Conclui-se que o CESM é uma ferramenta útil, que permite ao utente um diagnóstico rápido, fiável e satisfatório. Verificou-se também a inexistência de estudos acerca do tema em Portugal.
