Universities Under Fire: Hostile Discourses and Integrity Deficits in Higher Education
ISBN: 9783030961060 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the ways in which the contemporary university is talked about, and talks about itself. Focusing on English higher education, Jones documents how an under-confident sector internalised the language and logic of government policy, and individual institutions then set about normalising competition and gaming short-term advantage at the expense of collectively serving a common good. A flawed marketisation project was attended and sustained by hostile discourses, with purportedly woke universities becoming a soft target for right-leaning politicians and media commentators, and...

The Emergence of the Digital Humanities
ISBN: 9780415635523 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The past decade has seen a profound shift in our collective understanding of the digital network. What was once understood to be a transcendent virtual reality is now experienced as a ubiquitous grid of data that we move through and interact with every day, raising new questions about the social, locative, embodied, and object-oriented nature of our experience in the networked world. In The Emergence of the Digital Humanities, Steven E. Jones examines this shift in our relationship to digital technology and the ways that it has affected humanities scholarship and the academy more broadly.
