  In an era where pop stars are more than performers, they are also brands, icons, and political actors. Celebrity, Image, and the New Politics of Pop offers a groundbreaking look into the cultural power of one of the most influential figures of our time: Ariana Grande. 
  Drawing on cultural criticism, media theory, and feminist analysis, this book examines how Grande has strategically crafted her image to navigate and challenge the evolving landscapes of celebrity, gender politics, and digital culture. From her early Nickelodeon days to her transformation into a global feminist symbol, Grande's rise is more than a success story; it's a case study in how pop stardom operates in the 21st century. 
  Whether she's using social media to bypass traditional media gatekeepers or reclaiming agency over her body and voice, Grande embodies a new kind of celebrity, one that blurs the lines between personal branding and political influence, performance and authenticity. 
  For readers fascinated by pop culture, media studies, feminism, or the artistry and ambition behind one of today's biggest stars, this book is an essential and eye-opening read.

  Oscar, Grammy, and Golden Globe recipient, platinum-selling artist. The voice of Dolores Madrigal in Encanto. Adassa invites us into her personal story of achieving her musical dreams, battling a paralyzing illness, and having faith in divine timing. 
   
  Born to immigrant Colombian parents, Adassa learned early that making it as an artist wasn’t just about talent—it was about grit, faith, and a whole lot of improvising. 
   
  Together with Gabriel Candiani, who is both her husband and her music director, Adassa paid her dues on stages in Texas and Mexico, before landing her first solo record deal. That deal catapulted her into performing alongside and collaborating with musical legends, including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Daddy Yankee, Juanes, Enrique Iglesias, Carlos Vives, Pitbull, Snoop Dogg, Flo Rida, Ciara, Missy Elliott, Luis Fonsi, Don Omar, Megan Thee Stallion, and Becky G. 
   
  But when COVID left her paralyzed from the neck down, Adassa faced her greatest challenge. Unable to care for herself—let alone sing—she felt like everything was slipping away. But in those darkest moments, Gabriel and their seven children became her strength. Their family clung to faith, laughter, and the unshakable belief that God was still directing their lives. 
   
  What followed was proof that God’s timing is always perfect. 
   
  Full of inspirational music—including QR codes that link to twelve original songs—unexpected messes, and undeniable miracles, Love Keeps Showing Up is a heartfelt reminder that even when life feels out of tune, faith and family keep us singing.

  Schumann in Words and Music

  The unresolved and ambiguous details of Robert Schumann’s psychological decline and death have tended to dominate his biography. Yet in his time Schumann was lauded as a protean Romantic literary genius whose writings, as a music critic, poet, novelist and dramatist, eclipsed his musical creativity. How did Schumann reconcile these elements? Does his music suggest he suffered from bipolar disorder? How did his pianist wife, Clara, influence his compositions? The narration is illustrated with some of Schumann’s finest works including excerpts from the symphonies, his song cycle Dichterliebe, the piano works Papillons and Carnaval, and the Piano Concerto, among others.
