Sommario/riassunto

"In November of 1937, NBC presented the first known pilot film, then called an 'experimental.' Over the years that followed, thousands of aired pilot films have appeared on TV either as stand-alone broadcasts or as part of a series. This reference work, the most complete guide to aired television pilot films ever published (or made available in any way), contains 2,470 alphabetically arranged programs, each with story information, performer and character cast listings, producers, air dates (where applicable), genre, and network or cable association. This edition also includes an appendix listing aired series spin-offs, like Agent Carter (2015), Fuller House (2016) and Magnum P.I. (2018). (Information on unaired pilot films can be found in the companion volume, Encyclopedia of Unaired Television Pilots, 1945-2018.)"--

Sommario/riassunto

In The Dialectic of Position and Maneuver , Daniel Egan examines the role that the military metaphors of war of position and war of maneuver play in Antonio Gramsci’s social theory. The foundation for this analysis is the different ways in which Marxists have understood war and military strategy since the mid-nineteenth century. In doing so, Egan argues that the distinction between war of position and war of maneuver which is so central to Gramsci’s work as well as contemporary interpretations of his work must be understood in a more dialectical manner. This conclusion is important not only in terms of Gramsci’s social theory, but also for understanding the limits and possibilities of contemporary political strategies for the left worldwide.
