This book proposes a fresh understanding of the literary composition of Luke-Acts. Picking up on the ancient practice of literary mimesis, the author argues that Luke’s two-part narrative is subtly but significantly modeled on the two-part narrative found in the books of Samuel-Kings and Chronicles. Specifically, Luke’s gospel presents Jesus as the promised, ultimate Davidide, while the Book of Acts presents the disciples of Jesus as the heirs of the kingdom of David. In addition to the proposal concerning the composition of Luke-Acts, the book offers compelling insights on the genre of Luke-Acts and the purpose of Acts.
Nita City Housing Authority served Donna Johnson with an eviction notice months after her grandson was rounded up in a group arrest of persons suspected of gang drug activity. Roy was never charged, though, and Donna believes that the housing authority is evicting her in retaliation for demonstrations she orchestrated to protest her landlord’s inaction on fire safety. Donna formed a tenant action committee requesting that fire sprinklers be installed in the building, and led protests when the housing authority ignored the committee’s demands. Disabled and without the resources to find new housing for herself, her two grandchildren, and her great-grandchild, Donna is not giving up without a fight. This compact case file presents compelling witnesses and colorful exhibits. It can be tried with expert witnesses for a fuller experience, or the expert reports can be accepted by stipulation. The file also includes a component that looks at issues of conscious and unconscious bias and how attorneys should deal with such issues at trial. New to the Third Edition: Enhanced discussion of potential areas of bias counsel should address when presenting the case Additional exhibits, including text messages Revised timeframe of events to make the case file easier to understand and manage Professors and students will benefit from: A complex landlord/tenant file with issues of retaliation A structure that requires analysis on both the law and issues of bias A shorter case file that can be tried with or without expert witnesses Analysis on whether federal requirements regarding eviction for drug or other criminal activity trigger eviction without a charge A broad range of exhibits
This book provides a unique insight into contemporary curation and management in an innovative London-based gallery. Using a critical in-depth case study exploration of IMT art gallery’s ‘successes’ and ‘failures’, it illustrates and evaluates contemporary issues and challenges in curatorial initiatives and exhibition-making strategies. IMT operates as a ‘hybrid space’, combining characteristics of both the commercial gallery sector with non-profit artist-led or garage spaces while retaining affiliations to academic teaching and research. This book explores its structure, behaviour, history, partnerships and exhibition programme through a variety of disciplinary lenses, bringing together cultural, creative, economic, and pedagogical perspectives, as well as the effect of recent sociocultural impacts of the global financial crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Research-based and thought-provoking, this study will be of great interest to researchers, advanced students and professionals in curatorial studies, museum and gallery management, and art markets.
In requiring artificial light, the early modern indoor theatre had to interrupt the action so that the candles could be attended to, if necessary. The origin of the five-act, four-interval play was not classical drama but candle technology. This Element explores the implications of this aspect of playmaking. Drawing on evidence in surviving texts it explores how the interval affected composition and stagecraft, how it provided opportunities for stage-sitters, and how amphitheatre plays were converted for indoor performance (and vice versa). Recovering the interval yields new insights into familiar texts and brings into the foreground interesting examples of how the interval functioned in lesser-known plays. This Element concludes with a discussion of how this aspect of theatre might feed into the debate over the King's Men's repertory management in its Globe-Blackfriars years and sets out the wider implications for both the modern theatre and the academy.

Der früh verstorbene US-amerikanische Künstler Mark Lombardi (1951–2000) produzierte visuelle Netzwerke und Diagramme, die die unsichtbaren Verknüpfungen zwischen politisch-ökonomischen Vorgängen, Korporationen und Individuen transparent machen. Dieses Notizbuch bildet nicht die bekannten feingliedrigen Zeichnungen und Netze ab, sondern zeigt Lombardis Recherchehilfsmittel und Denkstützen: seine Karteikarten. Der ehemalige Bibliothekar Lombardi, der für seine Akribie bekannt war, hat seine Informationen aus öffentlich zugänglichen Quellen mittels eines Karteikartensystem sortiert und archiviert, von denen einige hier abgedruckt sind. In ihrer persönlichen Einführung beschreibt Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev ihre persönlicheSicht auf dieses außergewöhnliche künstlerische Oeuvre, dessen Verbindungslinien sich der Faktenlage von Finanzskandalen, Terrorangriffen und Verbrechen unterordnen und Namen nennen. Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev (*1957) ist künstlerische Leiterin der dOCUMENTA (13). Sprache: Deutsch/Englisch
Stop. Listen. Step outside the echo chamber. How do we step outside our own echo chamber to understand others? What are we losing when we share fewer and fewer national moments? The new media is enabling despots and disempowering democracy. So when every opinion seems to matter equally, ON US invites us to switch our devices off and to read uninterrupted. It contemplates why more information often means less insight.
This title features facts, figures, stats and trivia on legions of record-breakers, record losers, actors, singers, sportsmen, historical figures, the famous and infamous, felons, inventors, rulers, heartthrobs, politicians and scientists called Mark.
