Content: Peter Mack examines the impact of humanist training in rhetoric and argument on a range of Elizabethan prose texts, including political orations, histories, romances, conduct manuals, privy council debates and personal letters. Elizabethan Rhetoric reconstructs the knowledge, skills and approaches which an Elizabethan would have acquired in order to participate in the political and religious debates of the time: the approaches to an audience, analysis and replication of textual structures, organisation of arguments and tactics for disputation. Study of the rhetorical codes and conventions in terms of which debates were conducted is currently a major area of historical and literary enquiry, and Mack provides a wealth of new information about what was taught and how these conventions were exploited in personal memoranda, court depositions, sermons and political and religious pamphlets. This important book will be invaluable for all those interested in the culture, literature and political history of the period.

Series Statement: Was ist was Band 28

Content: Dieser Was-ist-was-Band ist schon seit den 1960er-Jahren auf dem Markt (bisher unter dem Titel "Die Welt des Schalls") aber schon sehr lange, in Ermangelung einer Neuauflage, nicht mehr besprochen worden. Mit neuem Titel und neuem Autor erscheint der Band jetzt in überarbeitetem und aktualisiertem Gewand. Das Themenspektrum erstreckt sich von der Entstehung des Schalls bis zur Geschichte der Schallaufzeichnung, behandelt den Schall im Tierreich, geht auf die Musik und die Musikinstrumente ein und erklärt, wie laut wir den Schall empfinden. Ein knappes Register ist am Ende des Bandes zu finden. Cover und Layout wurden dem Reihenkonzept angepasst und aktualisiert. Als einer der wenigen Titel zum Thema ist der reich illustrierte Band als Ersatz- oder Neuanschaffung empfohlen. Auch für Schulbibliotheken

Series Statement: New Interventions in Japanese Studies

Content: A free open access ebook is available upon publication. Learn more at www.luminosoa.org. This is the first book-length study in English of the Japanese-language literary activities of early Japanese migrants to Brazil. It provides a detailed history of Japanese-language bookstores, serialized newspaper fiction, original creative works, and critical apparatuses that existed in Brazil prior to World War II. This case study of the reading and writing of one diasporic population challenges the dominant mode of literary study, in which texts are often explicitly or implicitly understood through a framework of ethno-nationalism. Self-representations by writers in the diaspora reveal flaws in this prevailing framework through what Edward Mack calls "acquired alterity," in which expectations about the stability of ethnic identity are subverted in surprising ways. Acquired Alterity encourages a reconsideration of the ramifications (and motivations) of cultural analyses of texts and the constructions of peoplehood that are often the true objects of literary knowledge production.

Uniform Title: Textbook of radiation oncology.

Content: Stay on top of the latest scientific and therapeutic advances with the new edition of Leibel and Phillips Textbook of Radiation Oncology. Dr. Theodore L. Phillips, in collaboration with two new authors, Drs. Richard Hoppe and Mack Roach, offers a multidisciplinary look at the presentation of uniform treatment philosophies for cancer patients emphasizing the "treat for cure" philosophy. You can also explore the implementation of new imaging techniques to locate and treat tumors, new molecularly targeted therapies, and new types of treatment delivery.
