 Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Brontë and first published in 1847, has been translated more than six hundred times into over sixty languages. Prismatic Jane Eyre argues that we should see these many re-writings, not as simple replications of the novel, but as a release of its multiple interpretative possibilities: in other words, as a prism. Prismatic Jane Eyre develops the theoretical ramifications of this idea, and reads Brontë’s novel in the light of them: together, the English text and the many translations form one vast entity, a multilingual world-work, spanning many times and places, from Cuba in 1850 to 21st-century China; from Calcutta to Bologna, Argentina to Iran. Co-written by many scholars, Prismatic Jane Eyre traces the receptions of the novel across cultures, showing why, when and where it has been translated (and no less significantly, not translated – as in Swahili), and exploring its global publishing history with digital maps and carousels of cover images. Above all, the co-authors read the translations and the English text closely, and together, showing in detail how the novel’s feminist power, its political complexities and its romantic appeal play out differently in different contexts and in the varied styles and idioms of individual translators. Tracking key words such as ‘passion’ and ‘plain’ across many languages via interactive visualisations and comparative analysis, Prismatic Jane Eyre opens a wholly new perspective on Brontë’s novel, and provides a model for the collaborative close-reading of world literature. Prismatic Jane Eyre is a major intervention in translation and reception studies and world and comparative literature. It will also interest scholars of English literature, and readers of the Brontës.

Prismáticos

by Javier Bozalongo Antoñanzas

12,23€ + 10% CARD

 Javier Bozalongo trata de combinar con sus aforismos la manera de ampliarnos y acercarnos la realidad desde distintos prismas. Las miradas de sus frases exigen tener siempre los ojos bien abiertos, vigilantes para que los sueños no falten nunca. Por eso nos dice que la libertad es no deberle nada a nadie, ni siquiera obediencia, que una biblioteca es como una farmacia porque leer sana, y que los botiquines de primeros auxilios deberían contener, al menos, un abrazo. Las palabras usan aquí las gafas de la ironía, bien enfocadas, invitándonos con sus relámpagos a huir del llanto y a resguardarnos hasta de la lluvia. Los tiros que nos dispara salen por las ventanas, por las orillas, tratando de pescar la felicidad, convenciéndonos de que en la vida caben los besos y la verdad, pero nunca el rencor, y pese a que aumenten las dioptrías porque el pasado, a cierta edad, avanza mucho más deprisa que el futuro, seguiremos soñando. Estas son sus recomendaciones, sus recetas para reflexionar sobre un tiempo repleto de memoria, dejándonos al final del libro unas imborrables gotas de tinta escritas con todas las letras del abecedario. Prismáticos se lee como una gramática de nuestra vida. [Carmen Canet]

Prismatic Performances - Queer South Africa And The Fragmentation Of The Rainbow Nation

by April Sizemore-Barber

46,31€ + 10% CARD

 At his 1994 inauguration, South African president Nelson Mandela announced the "Rainbow Nation, at peace with itself and the world." This national rainbow notably extended beyond the bounds of racial coexistence and reconciliation to include "sexual orientation" as a protected category in the Bill of Rights. Yet despite the promise of equality and dignity, the new government's alliance with neoliberal interests and the devastation of the AIDS epidemic left South Africa an increasingly unequal society. Prismatic Performances focuses on the queer embodiments that both reveal and animate the gaps between South Africa's self-image and its lived realities. It argues that performance has become a key location where contradictions inherent to South Africa's post-apartheid identity are negotiated. The book spans 30 years of cultural production and numerous social locations and includes: a team of black lesbian soccer players who reveal and redefine the gendered and sexed limitations of racialized "Africanness;" white gay performers who use drag and gender subversion to work through questions of racial and societal transformation; black artists across the arts who have developed aesthetics that place on display their audiences' complicity in the problem of sexual violence; and a primarily heterosexual panAfrican online soap opera fandom community who, by combining new virtual spaces with old melodramatic tropes allow for extended deliberation and new paradigms through which African same-sex relationships are acceptable. Prismatic Performances contends that when explicitly queer bodies emerge onto public stages, audiences are made intimately aware of their own bodies' identifications and desires. As the sheen of the New South Africa began to fade, these performances revealed the inadequacy and, indeed, the violence, of the Rainbow Nation as an aspirational metaphor. Simultaneously they created space for imagining new radical configurations of belonging.

Prismatic Metropolis - Inequality In Los Angeles

39,68€ + 10% CARD

 <div>This book cuts through the powerful mythology surrounding Los Angeles to reveal the causes of inequality in a city that has weathered rapid population change, economic restructuring, and fractious ethnic relations. The sources of disadvantage and the means of getting ahead differ greatly among the city''s myriad ethnic groups. The demand for unskilled labor is stronger here than in other cities, allowing Los Angeles''s large population of immigrant workers with little education to find work in light manufacturing and low-paid service jobs. A less beneficial result of this trend is the increased marginalization of the city''s low-skilled black workers, who do not enjoy the extended ethnic networks of many of the new immigrant groups and who must contend with persistent negative racial stereotypes. Patterns of residential segregation are also more diffuse in Los Angeles, with many once-black neighborhoods now split evenly between blacks, Hispanics, Asians, and other minorities. Inequality in Los Angeles cannot be reduced to a simple black-white divide. Nonetheless, in this thoroughly multicultural city, race remains a crucial factor shaping economic fortunes. A Volume in the Multi-City Study of Urban Inequality</div>

Prismatic And Diffraction Spectra - Memoirs By Joseph Von Fraunhofer

by J. S. Ames

7,75€ + 10% CARD

 Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The spectrum of the sun was first observed, in 1666, by Newton, who allowed light coming from a small round open ing in a shutter to pass through a glass prism. This spectrum was most impure and a pure spectrum was not obtained until, in 1802, Wollaston repeated Newton''s experiment, replacing the round opening by a slit parallel to the edge of the prism. He observed several dark lines crossing the spectrum, which limit ed, as he thought, the difiercnt spectral colors. His descrip tion of this discovery is given at the end of this volume. Working independently of Wollaston, Fraunhofer, in 1814, rediscovered the lines in the solar spectrum, which now bear his name. He at first used a slit and prism but, later, he dis covered that the same phenomena could be obtained by means of gratings made up of wires or ruled on glass. The papers of Fraunhofer in which he describes these results are printed in full in this volume. The great merit of Fraunhofer''s work is the systematic, logical method by which he proceeds from ih vestigation to investigation.

Prismatic Reflections On Spanish Golden Age Theater - Essays In Honor Of Matthew D. Stroud

102,16€ + 10% CARD

 This volume, organized in five major sections, honors the myriad scholarly contributions of Matthew D. Stroud to the field of Early Modern Spanish theater. Building upon Strouds seminal studies, each section of essays simultaneously claims and wrestles with aspects of the rich legacy generated by his explorations. The essays included in this volume consider the moral, ethical, and legal backdrop of uxoricide, explorations of the meaningful intersections of psychoanalytic theory and the comedia, and engage the topics of women, gender, and identity. They also bridge the gap between dramatist and actors and between page and stage as they consider everything from the physical demands on Early Modern actresses to the twenty-first-century performance possibilities of comedias. Moreover, these essays incorporate studies that transcend temporal, spatial, political, and cultural limits, continuing to push at the edges of traditional scholarship characteristic of Strouds pioneering research. Both scholars and students will find this cohesive, compelling collection of interest across a wide spectrum of disciplines from theater history to performance studies, from philosophy to queer studies.

Fundamentos Para El Cálculo De Estructuras Prismáticas Planas

by Carlos Zanuy Sánchez e Pablo De La Fuente Martín

25,48€

free shipping

 Esta obra surge con la intención de plasmar los fundamentos y las bases que permiten la resolución del problema estructural en estructuras prismáticas planas. En sus páginas se aborda el análisis de las estructuras lineales planas desde el punto de vista y de la experiencia de los autores, de forma que se persigue que los ingenieros dispongan de herramientas "manuales" que permitan hacer los cálculos necesarios antes de recurrir a los avanzados modelos computacionales disponibles hoy en día para casi cualquier tipo de análisis estructural. En este sentido, los autores optan por el método de las fuerzas, o de flexibilidad, como una herramienta analítica sencilla que permite una comprensión física de los pasos necesarios para alcanzar la solución del problema. Se prefiere este método en lugar de metodologías basadas en teoremas energéticos, que no obstante siguen teniendo algunas interesantes aplicaciones como la obtención de líneas de influencia, tratadas también en esta obra. El trabajo se centra así en el estudio del comportamiento de elementos prismáticos de directriz plana, siendo este plano de simetría de la sección, con cargas contenidas en ese plano, en la hipótesis de comportamiento elástico y lineal del material. Se prescinde, por tanto, de las vigas cuya directriz es una curva alabeada, así como de situaciones de flexión o comprensión compuesta esviada, del estudio de la torsión o de situaciones de pandeo.
