The BBC German Service During the Second World War: Broadcasting to the Enemy
ISBN: 9783030740948 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book, part media history and part group biography, tells the story of the BBC’s attempts to reach out to listeners in Nazi Germany at a time when Anglo-German relations were particularly strained. Who were the individuals behind the microphone, whose names could only be mentioned in whispered conversations on the continent? Who wrote the satirical sketches that offered comic relief to housewives struggling to obtain enough food to feed their families? And who made decisions about programme delivery and staffing? Drawing extensively on previously unexamined archival material,...

The Sounds of Mandarin: Learning to Speak a National Language in China and Taiwan, 1913-1960
ISBN: 9780231209021 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken language in the world today. In China, a country with a vast array of regional and local vernaculars, how was this “common language” forged? How did people learn to speak Mandarin? And what does a focus on speech instead of script reveal about Chinese language and history? This book traces the surprising social history of China’s spoken standard, from its creation as the national language of the early Republic in 1913 to its journey into postwar Taiwan to its reconfiguration as the common language of the People’s Republic after 1949. Janet...

Mexico City's Olympic Games: Citizenship and Nation Building, 1963-1968
ISBN: 9783030741136 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book looks at the 1968 Summer Olympic Games as a complex nation-building project. Sports mega-events have been mostly studied as homogenous government-led strategies, but more work is needed around the diverse reception and performances. The preparation period for the Olympics in Mexico and especially the year 1968 highlight the multiplicity of voices behind these exercises. Beyond the government and associated networks, the citizenry also used this mega-event to present an idea of Mexico to the world and thus reshape citizenship and nationhood. This study takes a bottom-up approach to...

Richard Congreve, Positivist Politics, the Victorian Press, and the British Empire
ISBN: 9783030834401 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is about the life and times of Richard Congreve. This polemicist was the first thinker to gain instant infamy for publishing cogent critiques of imperialism in Victorian Britain. As the foremost British acolyte of Auguste Comte, Congreve sought to employ the philosopher’s new science of sociology to dismantle the British Empire. With an aim to realise in its place Comte’s global vision of utopian socialist republican city-states, the former Oxford don and ex-Anglican minister launched his Church of Humanity in 1859. Over the next forty years, Congreve... This book is about the life and times of Richard Congreve. This polemicist was the first thinker to gain instant infamy for publishing... |

This edited volume explores musical encounters and entanglements between Germany and East Asian nations from 1900 to the present.

East Asians have enthusiastically adopted it, while at the same time adding their own musical interpretations. These musical encounters have produced compositions that reflect this mutual influence, stimulating and enriching each other...
