Chinese Theater in Search of Ideological and Aesthetic Dimensions
Authors: Шулунова Евгения Константиновна 
Published: August 2024

Статья рассматривает обращение к русскому театральному искусству как к источнику творческого вдохновения в китайском театре. Заимствования не исключают самобытности на китайской сцене, творческой составляющей в китайском искусстве, способствуют появлению новых театральных идей. Интерес китайского театра и китайского зрителя к классике нашей страны не только постоянен, но и возрос. В последние несколько лет коллективы китайских драматических театров ставят «Белые ночи» (Ф. Достоевский), «Вишневый сад» и «Дядя Ваня» (А. Чехов), «Жизнь, увиденная в тумане» (Фань Данхуэй, по рассказу М. Горького «Челкаш») и др. Классика поднимает вечную проблематику. Несомненно, осмысление классической русской драматургии в Китае в прошлом столетии способствовало развитию собственной театральной системы, открывало новые пути сохранения национальной самобытности китайской нации. Однако стоит отметить, что китайские критики в настоящее время не вносят новое в изучение творчества русской классики, не анализируют ее, а рассматривают прежде всего как классику. Возникает вопрос - находит ли современное китайское общество ценностно смысловую сущность зарубежной классики, созвучие ее сегодняшнему дню, видит ли потенциал этих произведений в поддержании национальных китайских традиций.
The appeal to the Russian classics is a source of creativity and inspiration in the Chinese theater art. The transfer of the Russian ideas to the Chinese scene does not exclude the originality and creativity of the latter. Moreover, it stimulates the development of the Chinese theatrical ideas proper. The attention to the Russian sources proves that the interest of the Chinese theater and the Chinese audience in the Russian classics is not only permanent, but also increasing. In the last few years, the performances of The White Nights by Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Cherry Orchard and Uncle Vanya by Anton Chekhov, as well as The Life Seen in the Fog by Fan Danghui based on Gorky’s Chelkash, etc., were put on by several Chinese theaters. The classics raise eternal problems, and thus understanding of the Russian classical drama in China in the last century contributed to the development of its own theater system, opens up the new ways of preservation of the national identity of the Chinese nation. The Chinese critics currently do not introduce new things into the study of Russian classics, do not analyze it, but consider it primarily as a classic. The question arises whether the modern Chinese society finds the value-semantic essence of foreign classics, consonance with its present day, whether these works keeps up the national Chinese traditions.
A Collection of Poems about Macao by Qu Dajun (1632-1696)
Authors: Волчкова Елизавета Витальевна 
Published: August 2024

Статья посвящена описанию Макао в поэзии известного китайского ученого и литератора XVII в. Цюй Дацзюня (1632-1696). Исследователи творчества Цюй Дацзюня отмечают две темы, постоянно поднимавшиеся им в своих работах: антиманьчжурское сопротивление и бедствия, принесенные иноземным вторжением в Китай, а также история и жизнь его родного края - провинции Гуандун. Обе они нашли интересное преломление в цикле стихотворений «Аомэнь», вошедшем в стихотворное собрание «Неофициальные стихи Вэншаня». Цикл стихотворений включает шесть пятисловных восьмистиший и является одним из первых поэтических описаний Макао в китайской литературе. В нем Цюй Дацзюнь рисует нравы и обычаи португальцев, их торговые и религиозные практики, однако вписывает этот европейский анклав в контекст гуандунских реалий. Он также уделяет особое внимание макаоским оборонительным сооружениям и их значению для безопасности региона перед лицом возможной иноземной угрозы. Стихи Цюй Дацзюня стали важным этапом в складывании образа Макао в сознании китайской образованной элиты и внесли свой вклад в формирование канона описания этого города в китайской литературной практике. В статье приводится комментированный перевод цикла стихотворений «Аомэнь».
The article is devoted to the description of Macao in the poetry of Qu Dajun (1632-1696), the famous Chinese scholar and writer of the 17-th century. Researchers of Qu Dajun's poetry note two specific themes that he constantly wrote about in his works: anti-Manchu resistance and the hardships of a foreign invasion of China, as well as the history and current state of his native land - Guangdong province. Both of these themes found an interesting realization in the series of poems Aomen , included in the poetic collection Unofficial Poems of Wenshan . The collection comprises six five-character eight-line regulated verses and is one of the first known Chinese language poetic descriptions of Macao. In it, Qu Dajun depicts the customs and traditions of the Portuguese, their trade and religious practices, however, he fits this European enclave into the context of the Guangdong realities. He also pays special attention to the Macao defenses and their importance for the security of the region in the face of possible foreign threats. Qu Dajun's poems became an important stage in the formation of the image of Macau in the minds of the Chinese educated elite and contributed to the development of the canon of describing this city in Chinese literary practice. The article provides an annotated translation of the collection of poems Aomen .

Ecolinguistics and Environment in Education
Authors: Bellewes Emile 
Published: August 2024

In the age of ecological crisis, language and discourse are emerging as a new battleground in the environmental debate.With the rise of new environmentalist movements and their subsequent backlash, we are now exposed to a plethora of different and often opposing discourses on the environmental crisis and our relationship with nature. This book argues for the need to develop classroom practices which aid students in critically reviewing and evaluating different perspectives on discourses of environmentalism and sustainability.
Remarking that language and humanities teachers are perfectly positioned to play a key role in the development of eco-critical language awareness at this crucial juncture, this book explores how they can help students utilise a critical perspective to navigate the multitude of cultural messages regarding our relationship with nature. Employing ecolinguistics as a form of eco-critical pedagogy, Emile Bellewes presents key concepts underpinning ecolinguistics, before guiding readers through their application in the classroom. Serving as a bridge between critical perspectives on environmental education and forms of discourse analysis,Ecolinguistics and Environment in Educationexplains how ecolinguistics can be used to carry out detailed linguistic analyses of environmentally significant messages in the classroom.
Anatomical Drawing
Authors: Field Sue 
Published: August 2024

Intersecting art, science and the scenographicmise-en-scène, this book provides a new approach to anatomical drawing, viewed through the contemporary lens of scenographic theory.Sue Field traces the evolution of anatomical drawing from its historical background of hand-drawn observational scientific investigations to the contemporary, complex visualization tools that inform visual art practice, performance, film and screen-based installations. Presenting an overview of traditional approaches across centuries, the opening chapters explore the extraordinary work of scientists and artists such as Andreas Vesalius, Gérard de Lairesse, Santiago Ramón y Cajal and Dorothy Foster Chubb who, through the medium of drawing dissect, dismember and anatomize the human form.
Anatomical Drawingexamines how forms, fluids and systems are entangled within the labyrinthine two-dimensional drawn space and how the body has been the subject of the spectacle. Corporeal proportions continue to be embodied within the designs of structures, buildings and visual art. Illustrated throughout, the book explores the drawings of 17th-century architect and scenographer Inigo Jones, through to the ghostly, spectral forms illuminated in the present-day X-ray drawings of the artist Angela Palmer, and the visceral and deeply personal works of Kiki Smith. Field analyses the contemporary skeletal manifestations that have been spawned from the medieval Danse Macabre, such as Walt Disney’s drawn animations and the theatrical staging, metaphor and allegorical intent in the contemporary drawn artworks of William Kentridge, Peter Greenaway, Mark Dion and Dann Barber.
This rigorous study illustrates how the anatomical drawing shapes multiple scenographic encounters, both on a two-dimensional plane and within a three-dimensional space, as the site of imaginative agency across the breadth of the visual and performance arts. These drawings are where a corporeal, spectacularized representation of the human body is staged and performed within an expanded drawn space, generating something new and unforeseen - a scenographic worlding.
Conversing in the Metaverse
Authors: Kiaer Jieun 
Published: August 2024

How do metaverse technologies change how we communicate with each other? This book explores how existing metaverse technologies affect our communication, both verbal and non-verbal, as well as the ramifications of these effects.
Communication is central to the human experience, and how we currently communicate (and will communicate) can affect our sense of identity and relationships with others, which can have huge long term societal repercussions. Utilising methods of digital ethnography and linguistic landscape, this book takes an in-depth look at what exactly the metaverse is—or will be—and tracks the technological and societal trends that surround it. To do so, it questions what differentiates the metaverse from earlier connected virtual worlds like World of Warcraft or Second Life, and features extracts from interviews with the users and developers of current metaverses, such as Roblox, Minecraft, and Gather.town. It also investigates the impact of the pandemic in changing and accelerating how we communicate in virtual spaces.
Areruya and Indigenous Prophetism in Northern Amazonia
Authors: Amaral Virgínia 
Published: August 2024

Based on four years of ethnographic research, this book discusses the presence of Christianity on Areruya, an indigenous religious movement practiced by theIngarikó inNorthern Amazonia.
Tracing the role of 19th-century missionaries in the region, the book shows how shamans started to announce the coming of a cataclysm, associated with the promise of indigenous salvation in Christian paradise and the acquisition of the colonizers’ goods. It also explores how the ancient mythological elaboration of salvation after death was reinforced through both an appropriation of some aspects of Christianity and the development of a very violent form of shamanism, which epitomizes the evilness ascribed to the human condition on earth.
Virgínia Amaral offers a valuable reflection on cultural transformations, revealing how Areruya is not only a shamanic appropriation of Christianity, but also an indigenous and ritualized interpretation of colonization.
Placeness and the Performative Production of Space
Authors: Dundjerović Aleksandar Sasha , Martínez Sánchez María José 
Published: August 2024

How can performance create and transform places of urban renewal and regeneration? What does performance contribute to the creation of community? These are some of the questions addressed in this study of the relationship of performance to urban space.
Marrying theory with a series of international case studies of performance practice and interviews with practitioners, this interdisciplinary study examines how space is performatively produced to create a sense of ‘placeness’.
Offering multiple perspectives on space and place, this book investigates the connections between space and the construction of social and cultural narratives. It focuses on the multiple ways performative actions produce space, including theatre, installations, site-specific work, visual arts and digital performance.
Combining interdisciplinary approaches to contemporary performance, architecture and digital media studies, this study builds on a clear theoretical framework that draws on the work of Walter Benjamin, Michel Foucault, Henri Lefevre, Richard Schechner, Hans-Thies Lehmann, Lev Manovich and Slavoj Žižek. It offers themed sections comprising theory, studies of practice and interviews with practitioners. Case studies include site-specific work by Catalan collective La Fura Dels Baus, Barcelona, Spain, the Prague Quadrennial, community engagement in Praça Roosevelt in Sao Paulo, Brazil, the Portland Inn Project in Stoke-on-Trent, UK, Campo de la Cebada in Madrid, Spain, and digital spaces created by artists in India and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Shakespeare in the Theatre: Shakespeare Theatre Company
Authors: Lichtenberg Drew , Payne Deborah C. 
Published: August 2024

Co-authored by the resident dramaturg at Shakespeare Theatre Company and a long-time scholarly consultant, this book chronicles how a small repertory troupe at the Folger Theatre on Capitol Hill became an internationally renowned company performing in a lavish, multi-venue performing arts centre in downtown Washington, D.C.
The artistic vision and business acumen of Michael Kahn, the founding Artistic Director, largely catalyzed this transformation, but so too did the forces of neoliberalism and, more recently, globalization and new media. Accordingly,Shakespeare in the Theatre: Shakespeare Theatre Companynot only examines directorial decision-making but also 3 decades of social and economic change in the nation’s capital, from the complexities of gentrification to the arts policies of successive administrations.
In addition to discussions of directorial practice, this book examines the ambivalence of American theatre artists toward their British cultural inheritance. Analyses of representative productions and interviews with Kahn and his British successor, Simon Godwin, illuminate this complex relationship: one that aspires to a cosmopolitan Anglophilia while positioning classically trained American actors as worthy rivals to their counterparts at the RSC and the National Theatre of Great Britain.
The Politics of the Wretched
Authors: Zalloua Zahi 
Published: August 2024

The Politics of the Wretchedargues forressentiment's generative negativity, prompting a shift fromressentimentas a personal expression of frustration toressentimentas a collective “No”.Inspired by Kant and Nietzsche's philosophy, Zalloua identifies two modes of deployingressentiment– private and public use – by substitutingressentimentfor reason. This reinterpretation argues for a public use ofressentiment, for the wretched to universalize their grievances, to see their antagonism as cutting across societies, and to turn personal trauma into a common cause.
A public use ofressentimentrails against the ideology of identity and victimhood and insists onressentiment's generative negativity, its own rationality, prompting a shift fromressentimentas a personal expression of frustration toressentimentas a collective “No”. Reframingressentimentas a tool to oppose the evils of capitalism, anti-Blackness, and neocolonialism, it both alarms the liberal gatekeepers of the status quo and promises to energize the anti-racist Left in its ongoing struggles for universal justice and emancipation.

AI Fairness and Beyond
Authors: Reed Chris 
Published: August 2024

This book proposes a regulatory system for ensuring that AI makes fair decisions.
No one wants to be the subject of an unfair decision made by an AI, and fairness is so important to society that we are likely to want to regulate to demand it. But how? This book attempts to answer that question.
The aim of regulation must be for an AI’s decisions to match the human conception of fairness. To understand what that is, the book proposes a holistic understanding of fairness, which tells us what regulation must try to achieve.
However, regulation is not an abstract activity – it regulates how humans behave, and the humans in question are those who develop and use AI for decision- making. Thus the book investigates how those humans are attempting to achieve AI fairness. It finds that there is a serious mismatch between how technologists conceptualise fairness, compared to other humans. How can AI regulation bridge this gap?
Traditional models of regulation cannot solve this problem. Fairness is too nuanced, too contextual, and is ultimately a human emotional response. Instead the book proposes to place the responsibility on the AI community to explain and justify their eff orts to achieve fairness, basing regulatory and legal responses on how well that explanation deals with the risks that particular AI presents, and whether the AI operates in accordance with the explanation in use.
The book concludes by examining how far this regulatory model might be useful for some of the other social problems which AI generates.
An original and significant contribution to the literature on AI regulation, this book is a must-read for those working in the areas of law, regulation, and technology.
