Content: Eins möchte die schöne Königin von Anfang klar stellen: Dies ist nicht Schneewittchens Geschichte. Und damit das auch so bleibt, darf Schneewittchen gar nicht erst ihr Zimmer, geschweige denn das Schloss verlassen, nachdem ihr Vater, der König, im Wald von einem schrecklichen Biest getötet worden ist. Aber natürlich hält Schneewittchen sich nicht daran, begegnet ihrem Prinzen und wird Zeuge, wie die Königin ihre Untertanen ausbeutet und unterdrückt. Als der Prinz sich gar in Schneewittchen verliebt und somit die geplante Hochzeit mit der Königin in Gefahr gerät, ordnet diese den Tod des schönen Mädchens an. Doch Schneewittchen kann in den Wald fliehen, wo sie von sieben räuberischen Zwergen aufgenommen und im Diebeshandwerk unterricht wird. Gemeinsam mit ihren neuen Freunden beschließt Schneewittchen, der Herrschaft der bösen Königin ein Ende zu setzen und sich ihren Prinzen zurückzuholen.

Content: This study of the early modern fortress town of Cochin in India, based on the rarely used VOC archival deposits in the Tamilnadu State Archives in Chennai (Madras), provides an intimate portrait of a Dutch urban community of East India Company servants and their dependents living within the larger social environment of the Malabar coast. It shows how between 1750 and 1830 the population of this Dutch settlement had adapted itself to the fundamental political and economic changes that occurred as a result of local state formation processes, the demise of the Dutch East India Company, and the change of regime that occurred when English administration was imposed on Fort Cochin in 1795.

Content: Translating Kali's Feast is an interdisciplinary study of the Goddess Kali bringing together ethnography and literature within the theoretical framework of translation studies. The idea for the book grew out of the experience and fieldwork of the authors, who lived with Indo-Caribbean devotees of the Hindu Goddess in Guyana. Using a variety of discursive forms including oral history and testimony, field notes, songs, stories, poems, literary essays, photographic illustrations, and personal and theoretical reflections, it explores the cultural, aesthetic and spiritual aspects of the Goddess in a diasporic and cross-cultural context. With reference to critical and cultural theorists including Walter Benjamin and Julia Kristeva, the possibilities offered by Kali (and other manifestations of the Goddess) as the site of translation are discussed in the works of such writers as Wilson Harris, V.S. Naipaul and R.K. Narayan. The book articulates perspectives on the experience of living through displacement and change while probing the processes of translation involved in literature and ethnography and postulating links between 'rite' and 'write,' Hindu 'leela' and creole 'play.'.

Series Statement: Critical Issues in the Future of Learning and Teaching; volume17

Content: Writing comprises a significant proportion of academic staff members' roles. While academics have been acculturated to the notion of 'publish or perish,' they often struggle to find the time to accomplish writing papers and tend to work alone. The result can be a sense of significant stress and isolation around the writing process. Writing partnerships, groups, and retreats help mitigate these challenges and provide significant positive writing experiences for their members. Critical Collaborative Communities describes diverse examples of partnerships from writing regularly with one or two colleagues to larger groups that meet for a single day, regular writing meetings, or a retreat over several days. While these approaches bring mutual support for members, each is not without its respective challenges. Each chapter outlines an approach to writing partnerships and interrogates its strengths and limitations as well as proposes recommendations for others hoping to implement the practice. Authors in this volume describe how they have built significant trusting relationships that have helped avoid isolation and have led to their self-authorship as academic writers.

Series Statement: Brill Research Perspectives in Humanities and Social Sciences

Content: Economy and Modern Christian Thought , by Devin Singh, presents key features of the engagement of Christian theology, ethics, and related disciplines with the market and economic concerns. It surveys ways in which the dialogue has been approached and invites new models and frameworks for the conversation. It contends that economy and Christian thought have long been interconnected, and recounts aspects of this relationship and why it matters for how one might engage the economy ethically and theologically. Finally, it highlights a number of sites of emerging research that are in need of development in light of pressing social, political, economic, and conceptual issues raised by modern life, including money, debt, racial capital, social reproduction, corporations, and cryptocurrency.
