Richard Brautigan

Few contemporary American writers have been subjected to as much laudatory abuse as Richard Brautigan who having become famous in the 1960s was made a cult figure for the hippy generation and was systematically refused recognition as a major novelist once the sentimental wave of the ‘greening of America’ had passed. Marc Chénetier’s study originally published in 1983 was the first book to attempt to assess Brautigan’s writing art which far from weakening over the years had become amid critical indifference more secure in its techniques more all-encompassing in its strategy and more iconoclastic in its goals. In analysing most of Brautigan’s fictional works in the light of his poetics it examines the mechanisms of his metafictional and deconstructive offensive and indicates the direction in which Brautigan was moving at the time.

Children and Yiddish Literature From Early Modernity to Post-Modernity

Children have occupied a prominent place in Yiddish literature since early modern times but children’s literature as a genre has its beginnings in the early 20th century. Its emergence reflected the desire of Jewish intellectuals to introduce modern forms of education and promote ideological agendas both in Eastern Europe and in immigrant communities elsewhere. Before the Second World War a number of publishing houses and periodicals in Europe and the Americas specialized in stories novels and poems for various age groups. Prominent authors such as Yankev Glatshteyn Der Nister Joseph Opatoshu Leyb Kvitko made original contributions to the genre while artists such as Marc Chagall El Lissitzky and Yisakhar Ber Rybak also took an active part. In the Soviet Union meanwhile children’s literature provided an opportunity to escape strong ideological pressure. Yiddish children’s literature is still being produced today both for secular and strongly Orthodox communities. This volume is a pioneering collective study not only of children’s literature but of the role played by children in literature. | Children and Yiddish Literature From Early Modernity to Post-Modernity

An Existential Approach to Interpersonal Trauma Modes of Existing and Confrontations with Reality

An Existential Approach to Interpersonal Trauma provides a new existential framework for understanding the experiences of interpersonal trauma building on reflections from Marc Boaz’s own personal history clinical insight and research. The book suggests that psychology psychotherapy and existentialism do not recognise the significance of the existential movements that occur in traumatic confrontations with reality. By considering what people find at the limits and boundaries of human experiencing Boaz describes the ways in which they can disillusion and re-illusion themselves and how this becomes incorporated into their modes of existing in the world and in relation to others. In incorporating the experience of trauma into the way people live – all the existential horror terror and liberation contained within it – Boaz invites them to embrace an expansive ethic of (re)(dis)covery. This ethic recognises the ambiguity and spectrality of interpersonal trauma and expands the horizons of our human relationships. The book provides an important basis for professionals wanting to work existentially with interpersonal trauma and for people wanting to deepen their understanding of the trauma they have experienced. | An Existential Approach to Interpersonal Trauma Modes of Existing and Confrontations with Reality

Deficits Debt and American Politics Paper Shackles

For most of the history of the United States periods of growing indebtedness—a product of wars and economic crises—were followed by reductions in the debt-to-GDP ratio. But why have the last several decades failed to follow this pattern leaving the national debt at its highest level since World War II? In this groundbreaking new book author Marc Allen Eisner who has devoted most of his scholarly career to studying the evolution of the US political economy explores the significant changes in the fiscal conditions of the United States during the postwar period embedding the discussion in a broader historical context. He demonstrates that the national debt is in part a product of reduced revenues and the growing costs of the largest entitlement programs but it also reflects a long series of shocks including two wars the financial crisis and Great Recession and the COVID-19 pandemic. Deficits Debt and American Politics chronicles the history of the US debt in the postwar period placed in the context of broader changes in the political economy and partisan politics. But it grounds this exploration in reader-friendly chapter-length discussions of public finance taxation mandatory spending and the budgetary process from a policy perspective. The volume concludes with a discussion of the challenges of comprehensive tax and program reforms in the current political climate. Deficits Debt and American Politics assumes little prior knowledge on the part of the reader making it an ideal book for courses on public policy and political economy taught at both the upper-level undergraduate and graduate level. The material on public finance long-term trends in taxation and spending and the budgetary process often relegated to descriptive texts will be invaluable in courses engaging the deficit and debt. | Deficits Debt and American Politics Paper Shackles
