    Series Statement: International studies in sociology and social anthropology, v. 87
    Content: This book addresses, and at the same time reflects, the impact of Max Weber on both the social sciences and on critical theory's critique of the social sciences. Weber's conception of 'vocation' is a guiding thread unifying concerns about the nature, scope and limits of theoretical thinking among social scientists, whether supportive or critical of Weber. Not surprisingly, the source of many of these concerns, whether intended or unintended, biographical or situational, is the ambiguous legacy of Weber himself. Wilson's interrogation of Weber's thought in articles and essays over the past 30 years, supplemented by Kemple's insights, makes a strong case for the claim that we do indeed live in 'the age of Weber'.

    Content: "For 60 years the World Bank and the development community have been searching for the secret of prosperity. For both thinkers and doers, this has been an emotional rollercoaster of hope and disappointment, certainty and doubt. In the front seat of this drama were the World Bank's country directors who were responsible for bridging the world of ideas with that of action, the technical with the political. In this book they tell this story from a deeply personal, humble, and engaged perspective. This book is fundamental reading for the next generation of those who take on the quest for developme

    Series Statement: Cambridge companions to literature
    Content: Known from her day to ours as 'the Author of Frankenstein', Mary Shelley indeed created one of the central myths of modernity. But she went on to survive all manner of upheaval - personal, political, and professional - and to produce an oeuvre of bracing intelligence and wide cultural sweep. The Cambridge Companion to Mary Shelley helps readers to assess for themselves her remarkable body of work. In clear, accessible essays, a distinguished group of scholars place Shelley's works in several historical and aesthetic contexts: literary history, the legacies of her parents William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, and of course the life and afterlife, in cinema, robotics and hypertext, of Frankenstein. Other topics covered include Mary Shelley as a biographer and cultural critic, as the first editor of Percy Shelley's works, and as travel writer. This invaluable volume is complemented by a chronology, a guide to further reading and a select filmography.

    Series Statement: Edinburgh Critical Studies in Modernism, Drama and Performance : ECSMDP
    Content: An account of Salome’s dance and its centrality within modernist performanceOffers a new account of the Salome myth that underlines its centrality to modernist performance across different genres and forms, including drama, dance, and silent filmDraws on interdisciplinary methodologies from literary and performance studies to illustrate the importance of dance to modernist writing about Salome, providing a set of both conceptual and historical co-ordinates within modernism more broadlyBuilds a conceptual framework drawing on the writings of Aby Warburg, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Jacques Rancière in order to analyse key ‘scenes’ and sites of performance in the genealogy of this particular choreographic themeEngages in fresh readings of plays by canonical playwrights – Wilde, Yeats, Beckett – alongside the work of lesser-known performers and filmmakers in order to destabilise the gendered and aesthetic hierarchies often germane to literary histories of the periodThis book explores Salome’s quintessential veiled dance through readings of fictional and poetic texts, dramatic productions, dance performances and silent films, arguing for the central place of this dancer – and her many interpreters – to the wider formal and aesthetic contours of modernism.Loïe Fuller, Maud Allan, Oscar Wilde, Ida Rubinstein, Alla Nazimova, Djuna Barnes, Germaine Dulac, Edward Gordon Craig, W. B. Yeats, Ninette de Valois and Samuel Beckett are foregrounded for their innovative engagements with this paradigmatic fin-de-siècle myth, showing how the ephemeral stuff of dance became a constitutive element of the modernist imagination during this period.
