Summary

This anthology, the first of its kind, presents thirty-two texts on contemporary prints and printmaking written from the mid-1980s to the present by authors from across the world. The texts range from history and criticism to creative writing. More than a general survey, they provide a critical topography of artistic printmaking during the period. The book is directed at an audience of international stakeholders in the field of contemporary print, printmaking and printmedia, including art students, practising artists, museum curators, critics, educationalists, print publishers and print scholars. It expands debate in the field and will act as a starting point for further research.

    Loretta Lynn is a living legend. From walking around barefoot in clothing repurposed from flour sacks in rural Kentucky to becoming an icon with more awards than any other woman in country music, many may wonder just how Loretta Lynn paved this path for herself. While hard work, natural talent, and having certain people in her life surely contributed to her success, her story is so unique it seems as if it was written by fate.  
    A mother of six and now a grandmother to dozens, Lynn never lost sight of her values or what drove her. She had a calling to relay what was real and a desire to create a secure life for her family. She believes in horoscopes and is proudly an Aries; with her ambition and gifts, she could not be stopped. While Lynn is hesitant to call herself a feminist, her bravery and perseverance opened doors for many more women in country music. She also challenged stereotypes associated with the genre through living her beliefs about tolerance, honesty, and fairness. 
    This biography will explore the meaning and process behind some of her music and how the people and circumstances that shaped her led to her extensive list of awards and accolades. It will also seek to provide insight into how her world view, natural gifts, and personality traits drove her successes.

    Cinematic Flashes challenges popular notions of a uniform Hollywood style by disclosing uncanny networks of incongruities, coincidences, and contingencies at the margins of the cinematic frame.  In an agile demonstration of "cinephiliac" historiography, Rashna Wadia Richards extracts intriguing film fragments from their seemingly ordinary narratives in order to explore what these unexpected moments reveal about the studio era. Inspired by Walter Benjamin's preference for studying cultural fragments rather than composing grand narratives, this unorthodox history of the films of the studio system reveals how classical Hollywood emerges as a disjointed network of accidents, excesses, and coincidences.

    Jewish Book Award Finalist: “Turns the fascinating life of Avrom Goldfaden into a multi-dimensional history of the Yiddish theater’s formative years.” —Jeffery Veidinger, author of Jewish Public Culture in the Late Russian Empire In this book, Alyssa Quint focuses on the early years of the modern Yiddish theater, from roughly 1876 to 1883, through the works of one of its best-known and most colorful figures, Avrom Goldfaden. Goldfaden (né Goldenfaden, 1840-1908) was one of the first playwrights to stage a commercially viable Yiddish-language theater, first in Romania and then in Russia. Goldfaden’s work was rapidly disseminated in print and his plays were performed frequently for Jewish audiences. Sholem Aleichem considered him as a forger of a new language that “breathed the European spirit into our old jargon.” Quint uses Goldfaden’s theatrical works as a way to understand the social life of Jewish theater in Imperial Russia. Through a study of his libretti, she looks at the experiences of Russian Jewish actors, male and female, to explore connections between culture as artistic production and culture in the sense of broader social structures. Quint explores how Jewish actors who played Goldfaden’s work on stage absorbed the theater into their everyday lives. Goldfaden’s theater gives a rich view into the conduct, ideology, religion, and politics of Jews during an important moment in the history of late Imperial Russia.
