  1. Personal Pedagogy

    Personal Pedagogy

    Recent trends in higher education, especially among the arts, have shifted focus from what faculty can provide as arbiters of wisdom and knowledge to what the students themselves bring to the classroom. This foregrounding of the individual and their personal relationship to course content creates stronger opportunities for deep learning and engagement through intrinsic motivation and the creation of a learner identity. This book presents five distinct examples of pedagogy within or connected to creative fields, offering insights into various approaches to making education more personalised for students. Its aim is to provide creative arts educators with practical examples and contemporary philosophies on how to embrace and leverage students' individuality as a teaching tool. By doing so, it seeks to enhance critical thinking, engagement, and active learning in the classroom. Designed for arts educators seeking to empower their students and create meaningful connections to course material, this book is an essential resource for fostering motivation and transforming the classroom experience.

  2. Dark Film, Blood Money
    1. Vernon , Shetley

    Dark Film, Blood Money

    The book presents an interpretation of neo-noir filmmaking through the lens of economics, based on readings of central neo-noir works from the noir revival of the early 1970s to recent films. Analyzing key themes and figures of neo-noir - desire and betrayal, corruption and alienation, the private detective and the femme fatale - the project reads neo-noir filmmaking as a privileged site for the expression of anxieties around work, money, trust, and exchange. Neo-noir filmmaking embodies a profound reflection on the hollowing-out of economic and social life, the collapse of trust, the erosion of institutions, and fears regarding legacy and identity, developments that have undermined the promise of American life in the long twilight of the American dream since the end of postwar prosperity. Aimed at the many scholars and faculty who study and teach film noir and neo-noir at levels from high school to post-graduate. It will appeal as well to the extensive community of cinephiles enthusiastic about noir, those who attend "Noirvember" screenings at repertory movie houses, who read the websites of the Film Noir Foundation or Eddie Muller (the self-styled "Czar of Noir"), and participate in discussions of noir and neo-noir filmmaking on online forums.

  6. Gertrud Bodenwieser and Vienna's Contribution to Ausdruckstanz

    Gertrud Bodenwieser and Vienna's Contribution to Ausdruckstanz

    Born in Vienna in 1890, Gertrud Bodenwieser became a leading exponent of Ausdruckstanz (Expressionist Dance) during the 1920s and 1930s, developing a definitive personal style and a philosophy of dance that distinguished her from all her contemporaries. In 1938 she emigrated to Australia to start her career afresh with the remaining nucleus of her company from Nazi-occupied Austria. In this collection of writings (initially compiled by Bettina Vernon and posthumously completed by her husband Charles Warren) each contributor highlights Bodenwieser's achievements from a different perspective, with reminiscences from her pupils and company members, together with scholarly studies.

  7. Dramatic Revisions of Myths, Fairy Tales and Legends

    Dramatic Revisions of Myths, Fairy Tales and Legends

    These new essays explore the ways in which contemporary dramatists have retold or otherwise made use of myths, fairy tales and legends from a variety of cultures, including Greek, West African, North American, Japanese, and various parts of Europe. The dramatists discussed range from well-established playwrights such as Tony Kushner, Caryl Churchill, and Timberlake Wertenbaker to new theatrical stars such as Sarah Ruhl and Tarell Alvin McCraney. The book contributes to the current discussion of adaptation theory by examining the different ways, and for what purposes, plays revise mythic stories and characters. The essays contribute to studies of literary uses of myth by focusing on how recent dramatists have used myths, fairy tales and legends to address contemporary concerns, especially changing representations of women and the politics of gender relations but also topics such as damage to the environment and political violence.
