Decolonization and the Struggle for National Liberation in India (1909-1971); Historical, Political, Economic, Religious and Architectural Aspects

At the end of the First World War, the Raj remained economically or even strategically more central than ever in the general colonial architecture of the British Empire. Yet, between the two World Wars, the colonial regime hung only by a thread when confronted with the rising popularity of the nationalist movements. As a result, independence was granted in 1947 to this major component of the Empire, a truly cataclysmic event for the remainder of the world. This reality conflicts with the idea that a well-managed, peaceful decolonization process was launched by the British authorities....

Poetics of Identity: Mina Loy Voicing the Fluid Female Body
ISBN: 9783631612491 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Examining closely the intersection of Continental theories of difference and a predominantly American ethic of diversity, the book uses phenomenology and interdisciplinary study to investigate female embodiment in Mina Loy s poetic and visual work. It contends that Loy s female embodied subjectivity is enacted in the mode of a subject-in-process, forever active in the transformation of materiality, intercorporeality, visuality and ideology. It shows that the representation of a forcefully fluid and unfetished female body endows Loy and her contemporary Surrealist women artists with the...
