Sommario/riassunto

When the avant-garde writer Mu Shiying was assassinated in 1940, China lost one of its greatest modernist writers while Shanghai lost its most detailed chronicler of its demi-monde nightlife. As Andrew David Field argues, Mu Shiying advanced modern Chinese writing beyond the vernacular expression of May 4 giants Lu Xun and Lao She to even more starkly reveal the alienation of the cosmopolitan-capitalist city of Shanghai, trapped between the forces of civilization and barbarism. Each of these five short stories focuses on the author's key obsessions: the pleasurable yet anxiety-ridden social and sexual relationships of the modern city and the decadent maelstrom of consumption and leisure in Shanghai epitomized by the dance hall and the nightclub. This study places his writings squarely within the framework of Shanghai's social and cultural nightscapes.

Sommario/riassunto

This book is based on the lectures and contributions from the NATO Advanced Study Institute on 'Nanotechnological Advances in



Environmental, Cyber, and CBRN Security,' held in Sozopol, Bulgaria, in September 2024. It provides a comprehensive overview of the field, incorporating articles that address the preparation and characterization of various nanoscale materials, including metals, oxides, glasses, polymers, and carbon-based materials. Additionally, the book includes contributions on the applications of these materials in diverse security and safety-related fields. The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing on the expertise of authors from physics, chemistry, engineering, materials science, and biology. A notable feature is its representation of expert knowledge from over 15 countries, offering both comprehensive papers that provide foundational insights into specific topics and concise contributions that emphasize particular applications in various security domains.
