Sommario/riassunto

This volume focusses on the rarely discussed reverse side of traditional, ‘given’ objects of studies, namely absence rather than presence (of text) and silence rather than sound. It does so from the bifocal and interdisciplinary perspective which is a hallmark of the book series Word and Music Studies. The twelve contributors to the main subject of this volume approach it from various systematic and historical angles and cover, among others, questions such as to what extent absence can become significant in the first place or iconic (silent) functions of musical scores, as well as discussions of fields ranging from baroque opera to John Cage’s 4’33’’ . The volume is complemented by two contributions dedicated to further surveying the vast field of word and music studies. The essays collected here were originally presented at the Ninth International Conference on Word and Music Studies held at London University in August 2013 and organised by the International Association for Word and Music Studies. They are of relevance to scholars and students of literature, music and intermediality studies as well as to readers generally interested in phenomena of absence and silence.

Sommario/riassunto

The 2024 edition of Mediterranean Economies explores the European Union's "New Agenda for the Mediterranean", a transformative framework designed to enhance collaboration and sustainable development with its Southern Mediterranean neighbours. This comprehensive analysis focuses on the agenda's five key pillars: human development, governance, resilience and prosperity, peace and security, migration and mobility, and the green transition.Through



contributions from leading scholars and policymakers, the book provides in-depth analyses of these interconnected themes, addressing the Mediterranean's shared challenges.

Highlights include the geopolitical consequences of the October 2023 Middle East crisis, the growing influence of Russia and China in the region, and infrastructure investments in MENA and Africa amidst G7-BRICS competition. The book also underscores the urgency of tackling environmental degradation, water scarcity, and gender inequalities while examining the intricate dynamics between migration policies and economic growth.As the Mediterranean faces environmental pressures, socio-economic disparities, and political instability, this book emphasises the need for innovative strategies and regional integration to transform these challenges into opportunities.Ideal for policymakers, academics, and stakeholders, Mediterranean Economies 2024 provides critical insights and actionable recommendations to foster a more inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous region [Publisher's text].
