Sommario/riassunto |
|
These two volumes present Pye's methodological, theoretical, and field-based interests in the study of religions. Pye understands the study of religions to be an international enterprise with roots in both European and East Asian culture. This relates to his active role in the International Association for the History of Religions (IAHR), as a former General Secretary and President. The work is presented in seven sections, which could be used in teaching assignments. The first volume begins with a lively introduction on "Methodological Strategies," followed by "East Asian Starting Points," a radical attempt to overcome Eurocentrism, and "Structures and Strategies," which tackles globally significant institutional and ideological questions. The second volume presents selected strands in the study of religions. "Comparing and Contrasting" is followed by "Tradition and Innovation," including reference to specific new religions. "Transplantation and Syncretism" is a definitive package on syncretism and includes new materials from South-East Asia. Finally, "Contextual Questions" explores wider themes |

of identity, plurality, dialogue of religions, religious education, and peace. These show how relevant the study of religions can be -when it is distinctly and responsibly defined. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book is a brief compendium that articulates queer studies and sexual dissidence. One of the objectives of this work is to reflect on other forms of "unusual" pleasure for a model majority, which have been thought, exhibited and shaped by the artists. Following Michel Foucault: "Against the device of sexuality, the fulcrum of the counterattack should not be sex-desire, but bodies and pleasures." Another objective is to show certain ways in which it became possible to enunciate, symbolize, represent and make visible sexual dissidence in different socio-historical moments in Literature and Visual Arts (photography, sculpture, cinema, performances, painting, installations), starting from the period between the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries. It was based on insistences, which connected Jean Broc, Aubrey Beardsley, Oscar Wilde, Gustave Moreau, Jean Genet, Marcel Jouhandeau, Enio Iommi, André Gide, Yukio Mishima, Ilse Fuskova, Judy Chicago, Gina Pane, Francis Bacon, Robert Gober, Robert Mapplethorpe, Fakir Musafar, Del LaGrace Volcano, Siri Gurudev, among others. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Crisis and Disaster Management for Sport is the first book to introduce key concepts and best practice in crisis and disaster management in sport and international sports events. The book draws from multiple disciplines to provide insight into the issues and challenges involved in planning for, and managing, crises and disasters in the context of |
|

|

|
|
sport. With an initial focus on sports event and venue resilience, the book also explores social, community and individual resilience within sport and examines concepts and issues such as fandom, risk perception, crowd control and management, crisis communication and reputational risk and the growing challenges posed by climate change.The book includes real-world case studies as well as disaster management-related simulation and scenario-building exercises and looks ahead to what might be the most significant threats in future to the safe and sustainable management of sport. With the devastating impacts of COVID-19 illustrating the central importance of resilience and proper preparation for crises and disasters, this book is an essential read for all researchers, students, practitioners and policy-makers working in sport, tourism, entertainment, leisure and critical event studies. |
