The manipulative mode : political propaganda in antiquity : a collection of case studies /
:
This book deals with political propoganda in classical antiquity, exploring the contexts, strategies, and parameters of a fascinating phenomenon that has often been approached with anachronistic models (such as the centrally organized 'propaganda machines' of the 20th-century totalitarian regimes) or completely ignored. It offers case studies on the archaic period, classical Athens, the Hellenistic kingdoms, the Augustan age and the late Roman empire, and emphasizes concepts such as interaction, integration, and horizontal orientation.

Mode of Production : The Final Horizon of Practice and Theory /
:
Mode of Production: The Final Horizon of Practice and Theory re-invigorates the Marxist concept 'mode of production' by showing how it continues to have a central place in understanding the broad sweep of human history, while also offering crucial resources to inform social justice activism today. Drawing on recent materialist theory and newer insights from historical and anthropological scholarship, the book discusses the three modes of production that existed, the conflicts between them, the importance of Indigenous struggles to socialism, and explicates a materialist contemporary cultural politics. The book offers a pathway for activism and theory through the wide range of contemporary hegemonies.

The Modeller : Adriaen de Vries in Search of the viva figura /
:
"In these days the most famous modeller": this is how the Dutch sculptor Adriaen de Vries (1556-1626) was characterised in 1621. A virtuoso modeller, De Vries explored new ways to enliven his art. His bronze sculptures were made in a radically new, sketchy style, with free figure compositions and a vigorous treatment of human anatomy, often balancing on the border between realism and distortion. This book explores how and why a Late-Renaissance sculptor broke so drastically with the prevailing stylistic paradigm of his time, in search of vivezza, natural liveliness, and the viva figura, the statue on the brink of coming to life. Adriaen de Vries aimed to create sculptures that move in the metaphorical no-man's land between death and life, back and forth from inert bronze to apparent vitality, as this study will argue.

Modeling Biblical Language : selected papers from the McMaster Divinity College Linguistics Circle /
:
Modeling Biblical Language presents articles with some of the latest scholarship applying linguistic theory to the study of the Christian Bible. The contributors are all associated with the McMaster Divinity College Linguistic Circle, a collegial forum for presenting working papers in modern linguistics (especially Systemic Functional Linguistics) and biblical studies. The papers address a range of topics in linguistic theory and the Hebrew and Greek languages. Topics include linguistic model building, temporality and verbal aspect, Greek lexical semantics and Hebrew-Greek translation, appraisal and evaluation theory, metaphor theory, corpus linguistics, discourse analysis, and Greek clausal structure. These various areas of linguistic exploration contribute generally to the interpretation and analysis of the Old and New Testaments, as well as to linguistic theory proper.

Model Works During the Cultural Revolution /
:
This book offers a groundbreaking exploration of China's Cultural Revolution through the lens of the Model Works, revealing their intricate fusion of politics, art, and ideology. From Mao's diplomatic maneuvers to the enduring legacy of revolutionary opera, it traces how artistic innovation became a vehicle for cultural transformation and global strategy. Rich in historical detail, it illuminates the creative genius of figures like Yu Huiyong, the political theater of Jiang Qing, and the post-revolution commodification of socialist culture. Both a cultural history and a meditation on revolution's unfinished mission, it challenges readers to rethink the intersections of arts and politics.
