Fun, Frolics and Fandangos with Satire - Anna Nolan

This irreverently satirical book pokes fun at the bureaucracy rampaging across quango-land; the vagaries of office life, with its endless meetings, counter-productive wellness programmes and pointless motivational events; the absurdity of many corporate visions and missions; the comicality of jargon beloved by officialdom; the pomposity of inflated job titles; political correctness gone mad; and the wholesale takeover of our daily lives by digital technologies, including artificial intelligence.The book also attempts to defuse – albeit in a light-hearted way – some of the usage booby-traps strewn across the English language.We laugh at the comical name and farcical purpose of the organisation parodied in the book, at its absurd hierarchy and taxpayer-enabled profligacy, at the pointlessness of its frenzied working practices, at the abundance of its committees with their ridiculous names and remits and at its surreal rebranding exercise.We also chuckle at the highly inventive names of the book’s protagonists and gasp in disbelief at the linguistic ineptitude of the organisation’s editorial team and at the ludicrous phraseology used by the mocked bureaucrats in their countless policies, directives, rules, regulations, edicts, decrees, statutes, precepts, schedules, memoranda and the like.

It is now well recognized that some individuals who develop COVID-19 will experience persisting symptoms such as sensory and movement challenges, fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, cognitive difficulties (difficulty concentrating, multitasking, and brain fog), and many other debilitating changes to the body and mind. Many individuals with persisting COVID-19 symptoms, also known as Long Covid, may additionally experience anxiety and depression while struggling to adjust to changes to their everyday life and the uncertainty around their symptoms.

Nolan Variations - Tom Shone

An in-depth look at Christopher Nolan, considered to be the most profound, commercially successful director at work today, written with his full cooperation. A rare, revelatory portrait, "as close as you''re ever going to get to the Escher drawing that is Christopher Nolan''s remarkable brain" (Sam Mendes). In chapters structured by themes and motifs ("Time"; "Chaos"; "Dreams"), Shone offers an unprecedented intimate view of the director. Shone explores Nolan''s thoughts on his influences, his vision, his enigmatic childhood past--and his movies, from plots and emotion to identity and perception, including his latest blockbuster, the action-thriller/spy-fi Tenet ("Big, brashly beautiful, grandiosely enjoyable"--Variety). Filled with the director''s never-before-seen photographs, storyboards, and scene sketches, here is Nolan on the evolution of his pictures, and the writers, artists, directors, and thinkers who have inspired and informed his films. "Fabulous: intelligent, illuminating, rigorous, and highly readable. The very model of what a filmmaking study should be. Essential reading for anyone who cares about Nolan or about film for that matter."--Neal Gabler, author of An Empire of Their Own: How the Jews Invented Hollywood and Walt Disney, The Biography

The Media and Me - Allison T. Butler, Nolan Higdon, Ben Boyington

During the recent presidential election, ''media literacy'' became a buzzword that signified the threat media manipulation posed to democratic processes. Meanwhile, statistical research has shown that 8 to 18 year-olds pack more than eleven hours with some form of media into each day by ''media multitasking.'' Young people are not only eager and interested to learn about and discuss the realities of media ownership, production, and distribution, they also deserve to understand differential power structures in how media influences our culture. The Media and Me provides readers with the tools and perspectives to be empowered and autonomous media users. The book explores critical inquiry skills to help young people form a multidimensional comprehension of what they read and watch, opportunities to see others like them making change, and insight into their own identity projects. By covering topics like storytelling, building arguments and recognising fallacies, surveillance and digital gatekeeping, advertising and consumerism, and global social problems through a critical media literacy lens, this book will help students evolve from passive consumers of media to engaged critics and creators. The Media and Me is a joint production of The Censored Press and Triangle Square Books for Young Readers.

The Broadview Anthology of British Satire, 1660-1750

The Broadview Anthology of British Satire, 1660–1750 provides instructors and students with a thorough introduction to the highpoint of British literary satire. Reflecting current pedagogical practice and scholarship, the anthology presents works by thirty satirists, including eleven women. The contents are expansive: they include canonical, frequently taught texts; less anthologized works by major satirists; and works by writers who have been traditionally excluded from anthologies. Biographical headnotes, crisp footnotes, and carefully edited texts make the book suitable for use in both undergraduate and graduate classrooms. By turns raucous, piercing, acerbic, winking, vexatious, and sly, the satires in the anthology will provoke fresh, dynamic approaches to this crucial literary period.

Healing with Death Imagery - Anees Ahmad Sheikh, Katharina Sheikh

Sages of various traditions and ages have reiterated that we must incorporate the inevitability of death into the fabric of life to experience life''s breadth and beauty. Imagery is an important tool in dealing with death, and this book is devoted to exploring many facets of this fascinating issue. It begins with an overview of ancient and modern approaches to the use of death imagery for therapeutic purposes, including a discussion of its possible benefits. Chapter 2, specifically exploring Stephen Levine''s contributions in this area, shows that only by opening up to the reality of death can one make living a conscious process of growth. A number of excellent imagery-based experiential exercises are discussed in detail. Chapter 3 demonstrates the significance of confronting death through mental and artistic images; it discusses six examples of death-related religious and existential works of art.Recently there has been an upsurge of interest in near-death experiences and their salutary effects on attitudes, beliefs, and values. Of particular interest here are increases in spirituality, concern for others, an appreciation of life, and an enhanced sense of meaning and purpose in life. Chapter 4 presents a detailed critical overview of this field of investigation, with special emphasis ... Unknown localization key: "more"
