Photograph © Eamonn McCabe. How to Read Literature Terry Eagleton What makes a work of literature good or bad? How freely can the reader interpret it? Could a nursery rhyme like Baa Baa Black Sheep be full of concealed loathing, resentment and aggression? In this accessible, delightfully entertaining book, Terry Eagleton addresses these intriguing questions and a host of others. How to Read Literature is the book of choice for students new to the study of literature and for all other readers interested in deepening their understanding and enriching their reading experience. In a series of brilliant analyses, Eagleton shows how to read with due attention to tone, rhythm, texture, syntax, allusion, ambiguity and other formal aspects of literary works. He also examines broader questions of character, plot, narrative, the creative imagination, the meaning of fictionality, and the tension between what works of literature say and what they show. Unfailingly authoritative and cheerfully opinionated, the author provides useful commentaries on Classicism, Romanticism, Modernism and Postmodernism along with spellbinding insights into a huge range of authors, from Shakespeare Terry Eagleton is Distinguished and Jane Austen to Samuel Beckett and J. K. Rowling. Professor of English Literature, University of Lancaster, and Excellence in English Distinguished Visitor, University of Notre Dame. He is the author of more than 40 books.

When the Money Runs Out The End of Western Affluence Stephen D. King The Western world has experienced extraordinary economic progress throughout the last six decades, a prosperous period so extended that continuous economic growth has come to seem normal. But such an era of constantly rising living standards is an historical anomaly, economist Stephen D. King warns, and the current stagnation of Western economies threatens to reach crisis proportions in the not-so-distant future. Praised for the ‘dose of realism’ he provided in the much-praised Losing Control, King follows up in this volume with a plain-spoken assessment of where the West stands today. It’s not just the end of an age of affluence, he shows. We have made promises to ourselves that are only achievable through ongoing economic expansion. The future benefits we expect – pensions, healthcare and social security, for example – may be larger than tomorrow’s resources. And if we reach that point, which promises will be broken and who will lose out? Drawing on historical Stephen D. King is Group Chief parallels from the French Revolution to the disastrous 1931 austerity Economist and Global Head of budget, King demonstrates the links between economic stagnation and Economics and Asset Allocation political and social upheaval, asking whether the West has the courage research at HSBC.

Red flags and the Monument to the People’s Heroes, Tiananmen Square. Frederic J. Brown/AFP/Getty Images. Stumbling Giant The Threats to China’s Future Timothy Beardson While dozens of recent books and articles have predicted the near- certainty of China’s rise to global supremacy, this book boldly counters such widely-held assumptions. Timothy Beardson brings to light the daunting array of challenges that today confront China, as well as the inadequacy of leaders’ responses. Threats to China come from many fronts, Beardson shows, and by their number and sheer weight these problems will thwart the nation’s ambition to take over as the world’s ‘No. 1 power’. Drawing on extensive research and experience living and working in Asia over the last 35 years, the author spells out the details of China’s situation: an inexorable demographic future of remorseless aging, extreme gender disparity, a shrinking labour force and even a falling population. Also, the nation faces social instability, a devastated environment, a low-tech economy with inadequate innovation, the absence of an effective welfare safety-net, an ossified governance structure and radical Islam lurking at the borders. Beardson’s nuanced, first-hand look at China acknowledges its historic achievements while tempering predictions of its imminent hegemony with a no-nonsense dose of reality. Timothy Beardson founded and ran Crosby International Holdings, the largest investment bank in the Far East. Since the late 1990s he has been a frequent speaker on political, economic, environmental and May strategic issues at such forums as the World Economic Forum at Davos 512 pp. 234x156mm. and at prominent universities.

Investment in Blood The True Cost of Britain’s Afghan War Frank Ledwidge In this follow-up to the extremely successful Losing Small Wars, Frank Ledwidge analyses the cost – both financial and human – of Britain’s involvement in the Afghanistan war. With the aid of interviews, on-the- ground research and countless Freedom of Information requests, he pieces together the enormous burden the Afghan intervention has placed on the shoulders of British soldiers and their families, UK taxpayers and – by far the greatest sufferers – Afghan civilians. Amongst other issues, he highlights the soldiers left horribly maimed, UK funds poured into the corrupt Afghan government, refugees driven out of Helmand province into disease-ridden camps and the long-term damage to the international reputation of the UK military. Ledwidge argues that the only true beneficiaries of the conflict are development consultants, Afghan drugs kingpins and international arms companies. This is both an extraordinary piece of investigative journalism and a heart-breaking account of military adventurism gone horribly wrong. A former Naval reserve military intelligence officer, Frank Ledwidge served on front-line operations in the Balkan wars and Iraq. In civilian life he practised as a criminal barrister for eight years before specialising in international development and human rights law.

  • From the Museum to the Street: Garry Winogrand's Public Relations and the Actuality of Protest
    arts Article From the Museum to the Street: Garry Winogrand’s Public Relations and the Actuality of Protest Simon Constantine Department of History of Art, University College London, London WC1E 6BT, UK; [email protected] Received: 12 March 2019; Accepted: 16 April 2019; Published: 3 May 2019 Abstract: Focusing on Garry Winogrand’s Public Relations (1977), this article explores the problematic encounter between street photography and protest during the Vietnam War era. In doing so, it considers the extent to which Winogrand’s engagement with protest altered the formalist discourse that had surrounded his practice and the ‘genre’ of street photography more broadly since the 1950s. It is suggested that, although Winogrand never abandoned his debt to this framework, the logic of protest also intensified its internal contradictions, prompting a new attitude towards the crowd, art institution, street and mass media. By exploring this shift, this article seeks to demonstrate that, while the various leftist critiques of Winogrand’s practice remain valid, Public Relations had certain affinities with the progressive artistic and political movements of the period. Keywords: street photography; Winogrand; formalism; protest; Vietnam War; documentary 1. Introduction In her 1981 essay, ‘In, Around and Afterthoughts (on Documentary Photography)’, Martha Rosler sought to reinvent documentary practice through a Marxist critique of its traditions, truth claims and political assumptions. However, in doing so, she also stressed the difference between this project and a second, reactionary attack upon photographic credibility; one conducted by a postwar art establishment, which sought to secure ‘the primacy of authorship’ and avoid the social by isolating images ‘within the gallery–museum–art–market nexus’ (Rosler 1992, p.

The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century.

Text by Tessel M. Bauduin, Daniel Birnbaum, Briony Fer, Vivien Greene, David Max Horowitz, Andrea Kollnitz, Helen Molesworth, Julia Voss. When Swedish artist Hilma af Klint died in 1944 at the age of 81, she left behind more than 1,000 paintings and works on paper that she had kept largely private during her lifetime. Believing the world was not yet ready for her art, she stipulated that it should remain unseen for another 20 years. But only in recent decades has the public had a chance to reckon with af Klint’s radically abstract painting practice—one which predates the work of Vasily Kandinsky and other artists widely considered trailblazers of modernist abstraction. Her boldly colorful works, many of them large-scale, reflect an ambitious, spiritually informed attempt to chart an invisible, totalizing world order through a synthesis of natural and geometric forms, textual elements and esoteric symbolism.
