Lillian Groag presents a new version of Troilus and Cressida that will resonate with contemporary audiences. One of the most obscure plays in Shakespeare⠙s canon, Troilus and Cressida may also be the Bard⠙s darkest comedy. Exploring some of the events of Homer⠙s Iliad, the play juxtaposes the carnage of the Trojan War with a love story between its two titular characters. Lillian Groag⠙s translation brings this ancient world to modern audiences. Replacing the archaisms with new and accessible phrasing, Shakespeare⠙s lines regain their meaning and humor in the twenty-first century. This translation illuminates Troilus and Cressida as one of Shakespeare⠙s funniest, saddest, and most bitterly modern plays. This translation of Troilus and Cressida was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival⠙s Play On! project, which commissioned new translations of thirty-nine Shakespeare plays. These translations present work from ⠜The Bard⠝ in language accessible to modern audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare⠙s verse. Enlisting the talents of a diverse group of contemporary playwrights, screenwriters, and dramaturges from diverse backgrounds, this project reenvisions Shakespeare for the twenty-first century. These volumes make these works available for the first time in print⠔a new First Folio for a new era.

Billy Connoly - milovník hudby, motorkář, metla všeho nudného a všedního, snil o cestě po legendární Route 66 od chvíle, kdy poprvé uslyšel Chucka Berryho zpívat tu nejskvělejší rock n rollovou nahrávku všech dob. A nyní dostal svojí šanci - vydává se na své na míru postavené tříkolce hledat skutečnou Ameriku, která ještě stále může být nalezena mimo dálnice tohoto národa. Na cestě po všech z jejích 3 666 kilometrů (2 278 mil) od mrakodrapů Chicaga po Molo v Santa Monice v Kalifornii, Billyho cesta ho vede kolem mnoha základních ikon Spojených států: Gateway Arch v St Louis, Monument Valley a Grand Canyon, a pár pozůstalých jedinečných, neonem osvícených čerpacích stanic a jídelen, které kdysi tuto cestu lemovaly. Ale také mu tato cesta dává příležitost poznat lidi, kteří tuto silnici považují za svůj domov, od Mervina, amišského truhláře, k Robovi, který je tak jako Billy nadšeným příznivcem bendža, a obsesivním sběratelem hudebních nástrojů, k Angelovi, který je jedním z mnoha lidí, kteří jsou odhodlaní udržet ducha Matky Cest naživu. Vtipné, dojímavé a inspirující zároveň, příběhy, které na své cestě sbírá, vyprávějí příběh moderní Ameriky. A možná inspirují pár lidí, aby taky usedli na své motorky. Se svým instinktem pro dobrý příběh, který nemá konkurenci, a s nakažlivým entuziasmem, který ho udělal naším nejpodmanivějším národním pokladem, Billy Connolly je vrcholným průvodcem na vrcholném silničním výletě.

How a system of colonial trusteeship converted Native wealth into settler capitalFrom the earliest days of its founding, the United States set its sights on Native territory. Amid better-known ⠜Indian wars,⠝ the federal government quietly built an empire by treaty, offering payments to Native peoples for their land. Routinely inadequate, these payments were nonetheless pivotal because federal officials chose not to deliver them as a lump sum. Instead, the government kept the bulk of payments owed to Native nations under its own control as a trustee, and made access to future installments contingent on Native compliance. In Vested Interests, Emilie Connolly describes how a system of ⠜fiduciary colonialism⠝ seized a continent from its original inhabitants⠔and, ironically, furnished Native peoples with financial resources that sustained their nations. Connolly documents two centuries of dispossession in the guise of fiduciary benevolence. Acting as both dispossessor and trustee, the federal government invested Native wealth in state bonds that financed banks, canals, and other infrastructural projects that enabled the country to expand further westward. Meanwhile, Native peoples protected the money they did receive for future generations, investing it in their own institutions and mounting legal challenges to hold their trustees accountable. Still, federal trusteeship placed tight constraints on Native economies with the aim of containing Native power, forcing nations to endure through sheer resilience and ingenuity. By chronicling the long history of Native land dispossession through financial paternalism, Vested Interests reveals the unequal dividends of colonialism in the United States.

International relations affects everyone s lives: their security, economic well-being, rights and freedoms, and the environment they share. Recently we have seen the transformation from a world of empires to today s world of sovereign states, which are enmeshed in a complex array of international institutions, all exercising degrees of political authority. The new global organization of political authority has far-reaching consequences.This Very Short Introduction untangles this complex world, providing an accessible framework for understanding the contours of global political change. Christian Reus-Smit treats theory as an indispensable tool for grasping international relations, but demystifies theorizing, introducing it as an everyday human practice. He surveys a range of theories, from realism to feminism: reading them as contrasting perspectives on the global organization of political authority. Historically, such organization has been shaped by diverse social forces, four of which are discussed in detail: shifting patterns of warfare, changing economic conditions, struggles for rights, and the politics of culture. Reus-Smit concludes with a reflection on the future of international relations in an era of profound global change.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly.

This second edition has been updated to include an assessment of economic relations up to the COVID-19 pandemic. It focuses on three main threads that tie national economies together: flows of goods, of people and of finance.Since the end of the Second World War, the international economy transformed from a tightly controlled trading system to the financial globalization of the late 20th century. This book traces the organisation of international economic relations from the 1944 Bretton Woods conference through to the 2008 financial crisis and its aftermath. By outlining the development of economic policy of both national and international institutions like the International Monetary Fund and the European Union, this volume examines how the global system was constructed and explores the sources of inequality and instability. The changing political context is also emphasised, especially the Cold War and its end, the rise of China and other emerging market economies and the prospect of a retreat from globalisation in the wake of the 2008 crisis.Using non-technical language and providing clear examples and evidence, the book is an accessible introduction to international economic relations that will be useful for all students of modern world history since 1945.

In my fantasy of the Rambling Man who is something of a hobo, walking - or maybe jumping into the car of a moving train - is what he does. He slings his guitar or banjo over his shoulder and strides out along the road to the next town. There he plays a few songs at a local gig and meets a beautiful woman who feeds and shags him. It s a wonderful life, and a million miles better than sitting on your couch watching reality TV.During his lifetime of global adventures, Sir Billy Connolly s genuine curiosity and natural ability to connect with the people he meets on the road has made him a true citizen of the world . A good trip, in my book, should be littered with little detours. Travelling from A to B is all very well, but you risk missing out on so much . . . In RAMBLING MAN, Billy takes us with him on his incredible journeys criss-crossing the world. But this is no conventional travel memoir. From Ireland to India, Australia to the Arctic, we join the Big Yin on an international voyage full of detours, digressions and the most eccentric of characters - all underscored by the chosen soundtrack of the ultimate ramblin man himself.

From coastal to alpine, tropical to temperate, coniferous to deciduous, forest trees not only support the wildlife that lives under their canopies, but humankind, too. We could not survive without the cooling effect that trees have on the planet. Yet for thousands of years, we have logged forest trees and tapped their resin, we have hunted and foraged among them, found sources of medicine in their leaves and bark, and created sacred groves under their canopies. In some places we have cleared so much land that it is possible the trees will never grow back. Habitats have been lost as global temperatures have continued to rise. But, despite the environmental damage, there is hope, too. Some areas of abandoned farmland have been reclaimed by trees. And if we look to the Mayan ruins in Mexico, we see how forests can bury even a societyâ ™s grandest buildings. Given the opportunity, forests wonâ ™t just outlive us, but our civilisations, too. In this book, Kieron Connolly surveys forests from all around the globe, from deforestation in the Amazon to the reforestation of Californian redwoods, from Englandâ ™s New Forest to Germanyâ ™s Black Forest, telling the stories of humankindâ ™s ancient links to the trees and the flora and fauna found among them. Ranging from ecology to history, from the ravaged to the rewilded, and featuring more than 230 striking photographs, Forests is a fascinating exploration of woodland life around the world.

Coming from Glasgow, it s weird, I don t really tell jokes, like Irish jokes and all that. I tell wee stories. And some of them don t even have punchlines. But you ll get used to it as the night goes on, and on, and on, and on and on... In December 2018, after 50-years of belly-laughs, energy, outrage and enjoyment, Billy Connolly announced his retirement from stand-up comedy. His has been an extraordinary career.When he first started out in the late Sixties, Billy played the banjo in the folk clubs of Glasgow. Between songs, he would improvise a bit, telling anecdotes from the Clyde shipyard where he worked. Soon, the songs became shorter and the monologues longer, and Billy quickly became recognized as one of the most exciting comedians of his generation.Billy s routines always felt spontaneous. He improvised, embellished and digressed as he went along. He brought a beautiful sense of the absurd to his shows as he riffed on holidays, alcohol, the crucifixion, or naked bungee jumping. But Billy s comedy could be laced with anger too. He hated pretentiousness and called out hypocrisy where ever he saw it. Billy had the popular touch. His comedy spanned generations and different social tribes in a way that few others have ever managed.Tall Tales and Wee Stories brings together the very best of Billy s storytelling for the first time and features his most famous routines including, The Last Supper, Jojoba Shampoo, Incontinence Pants and Shouting at Wildebeest. With an introduction and original illustrations by Billy, it is an inspirational, energetic and riotously funny read, and a fitting celebration of one of the finest comedians.

Co-authored by regional expert Sean Connolly and Philip Briggs, the world s foremost guidebook writer on Africa, this third edition of Bradt s The Gambia remains the most comprehensive guide available to mainland Africa s smallest country. This new edition integrates recent developments, from recently opened restaurants and hotels to the new roads and bridges that make circumnavigating the country easier than ever. The guide provides detailed coverage of ecolodges and camps, information on festivals, music workshops and opportunities to experience local culture, plus advice about birdwatching possibilities in a country popular with first-time birders to Africa. As well as encompassing popular coastal resorts, the guide provides information required to explore the relatively undeveloped interior and proposes excursions into neighbouring Senegal, making it ideal for visitors on organised holidays and independent travellers alike.Bradt s The Gambia reveals all the practical information needed to explore this welcoming and safe country (not for nothing is it nicknamed the Smiling Coast ) with its plethora of beach resorts, catering to all tastes and budgets, that line the 80km stretch of tropical coastline running from the capital Banjul to the remote southern border. Small in size but rich in character, The Gambia offers perhaps the closest English-speaking winter sun destination from Europe. Justifiably popular with birdwatchers, the lush mangrove- and jungle-fringed River Gambia is also home to crocodiles, hippos, rehabilitated chimpanzees and various monkeys. The Gambia offers rich heritage tourism for moderately adventurous travellers, from the mysterious megalithic stone circles at Wassu and Ker Batch to fortified Kunta Kinteh (James) Island and the former slave-trading village of Juffureh - the heart of novelist Alex Haley s Roots country and part of two UNESCO World Heritage Sites. And why not enhance your visit further by experiencing colourful local markets, witnessing kankurang spirit masquerades or joining a kayak cruise from the sleepy river port of Janjanbureh, or paying homage to The Gambia s inspiring journey towards democracy and reconciliation at Memory House?All in all, Bradt s The Gambia is the perfect companion for discovering this safe, welcoming and tourist-friendly English-speaking country which provides an ideal short-stay introduction to West Africa s unique atmosphere.

This book is a timely and unapologetic expose that dismantles the carbon credits system ⠓ a $2-trillion climate (so-called) ⠜solution⠝ that has exploited under-developed communities for decades. More than a critique, the book is a bold call for global accountability and a reimagined approach to solving climate change.  Carbon credits are a market-based way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by funding projects that remove or avoid emissions from the atmosphere. Based on personal encounters and extensive work across Africa, the author presents the raw truth about what happens when climate policies are manipulated to serve the elite while leaving the most vulnerable to bear the cost. Jaye Connolly demonstrates why the current carbon credits system is failing and, if left unchecked, enables fraud and greenwashing on a huge scale. She goes on to offer real-world solutions for how we can reform this broken system, ensuring that those who are protecting the planet benefit from the climate economy.

Chinaâ ™s growing power and Russiaâ ™s invasion of Ukraine have thrust geopolitics back to the centre of the global stage, but the old frameworks of international relations, with their positivist methods and their emphasis on structural determinants, will not enable us to understand the increasingly dangerous world in which we are living today. Bertrand Badie argues that states and the many other actors now operating in the international arena are products of their cultural contexts and political traditions. Their perspectives and motivations are profoundly subjective in character and are shaped by the narratives, memories and emotions that constitute peopleâ ™s everyday realities. In Badieâ ™s view, international disputes in the twenty-first century are best understood through the concept of the â ˜battle for meaningâ ™, confrontations between different modes of understanding the world. His judgement is that peace and stability depend on greater sensitivity to the worldviews of other actors in the international arena. A willingness to try to see the world from the perspective of oneâ ™s friends, rivals and even oneâ ™s enemies is vital. This timely and engaging book by one of the worldâ ™s leading scholars of international relations will be of great interest to students and scholars in politics and IR and to anyone concerned about the growing tensions in the world today.

The first edition of this seminal textbook made a significant impact on the teaching of EU external relations law. This new edition retains the hallmarks of that success, while providing a fully revised and updated account of this burgeoning field. It offers a dual perspective, looking at questions from both the EU constitutional law perspective (the principles underpinning EU external action, the EUâ ™s powers, and the role of the Court of Justice of the EU); and the international law perspective (the effect of international law in the EU legal order and the position of the EU in international organisations such as the WTO). A number of key substantive policy areas are explored, including trade, security and defence, police and judicial cooperation, the environment, human rights, and development cooperation. Taking a â ˜text, cases and materialsâ ™ approach, it allows students to gain a thorough understanding of milestones in the evolution of EU law in this area, their judicial interpretation and scholarly appraisal. Linking these pieces together through the authorsâ ™ commentary and analysis ensures that students are given the necessary guidance to properly position and digest these materials. Lastly, each chapter concludes with a section entitled â ˜The Big Picture of EU External Relations Lawâ ™, which weaves together the diverse and complex materials into a coherent whole and stimulates critical discussion of the topics covered.
