Fairy-Tale Revivals in the Long Nineteenth Century

Fairy-Tale Revivals in the Long Nineteenth Century

This two-volume collection includes fairy tales produced by African American Caribbean Irish and other marginalized authors in the Anglophone world. These tales are a part of the expanding cartographies of the fairy-tale world during the long nineteenth-century. While new collections devoted to emerging minority writers include some new and exciting fairy tales this collection is particularly interested in demonstrating the historic nature of this tradition. Minority writers have been creating fairy tales alongside mainstream authors since the golden age of the fairy tales. Many of these stories have been overlooked because they are embedded in a range of literary genres including novels dramas poems and lyrics. This collection mines these fairy tales and makes out-of-print or otherwise relatively inaccessible marginalized fairy tales available to a new generation of scholars. Fairy Tales from the Margins is essential to moving fairy-tale studies beyond its current boundaries which also limit the field’s current theories and ideologies. While some written collections are beginning to include fairy tales by historically marginalized writers there are no collections dedicated to the fairy tales produced by marginalized writers or people of color particularly during the nineteenth century. And there are no online collections of these distinctive fairy tales. This collection breaks new ground in the field of fairy-tale studies and will allow scholars and researchers to engage with issues that are becoming urgent in an era of rising racial tensions. This study expands upon the long-standing connections between Scottish Welsh Irish African American and Caribbean revival movements demonstrating the ways fairy tales are incorporated into earlier forms of ethnic protest literature. This collection is divided by tale types to demonstrate the wide range of responses to a single tale or group of fairy tales. These divisions rely loosely on the traditional Aarne-Thompson-Uther classification system. Although these tales are primarily written by own-voice authors a few out-of-print collections of recorded oral tales are also included to demonstrate the longevity of these tales outside mainstream traditions where print traditions are not available. | Fairy-Tale Revivals in the Long Nineteenth Century

However as platform and automated service work has grown there remains a chasm in understanding the key aspects of digital labour. This handbook presents comprehensive theoretical empirical and historical accounts of the political economy of informal work from the late 20th century to the present. It examines the rich and varied analysis and critique of the informalisation of work focusing on its most signifi cant theories intellectual traditions and authors. It highlights the political social cultural and developmental impact of the deterioration of employment in the Global North and Global South as well as the extreme threat posed to the planet by the growth of contingent work poverty and enduring and increasing inequalities produced and reproduced by the reformation of capitalism in the contemporary age of neoliberal capitalism. The period from the 1980s to the present is marked by the expanded extraction of surplus value from workers through the creation of non-standard jobs and the restructuring of work.

The Pentecostal World

The Pentecostal World

The Pentecostal World provides a comprehensive and critical introduction to one of the most vibrant and diverse expressions of contemporary Christianity. Unlike many books on Pentecostalism this collection of essays from all continents does not attempt to synthesize and simplify the movement’s inherent diversity and fragmented dispersion.

The book thus argues for a new understanding of Pentecostal and Charismatic movements that accounts for the simultaneous processes of pluralization and homogenization in contemporary World Christianity. Written by a distinguished team of international contributors across various disciplines the volume is comprised of six parts with each offering a critical perspective on classical themes in the study of Pentecostalism. Led by a programmatic introduction the thirty-six chapters within these parts explore a variety of themes: history and historiography conversion spirit beliefs and exorcism prosperity politics gender relations sexual identities racism development migration pilgrimage interreligious relations media ecumenism and academic research. The Pentecostal World is essential reading for students and researchers in anthropology history political science religious studies sociology and theology. The book will also be very useful for those in related fields such as culture studies black studies ethnic studies and gender studies.
