By drawing on different theories of realism, the authors explore how the term may be used as a helpful concept in order to analyse and evaluate current trends in cultural production and, in turn, how cultural production changes our understanding of what counts as 'realism'. The contributions deal with realism in narrative fiction, drama and audiovisual media (film, television news) within the context of national traditions: examples drawn on in the case studies range from Africa, Britain, Germany, Iceland, Russia, Turkey to the United States. While the authors take their cues from media-specific 'realisms', focusing especially on narrative fiction, the volume also highlights continuities and intersections between notions of realism in different genres and media. With its original essays, this collection invigorates the transdisciplinary engagement with forms and socio-political functions of realism in contemporary culture.linguae & litteraeKnowledge, Theory ofRealism in literatureRealism in motion picturesRealism in the pressReality in mass mediaElectronic books.Knowledge, Theory of.Realism in literature.Realism in motion pictures.Realism in the press.Reality in mass media.809/.912Birke Dorothee896925Butter Stella1039792MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462661003321Realisms in contemporary culture2462193UNINA03476nam 2200685 450 991078747130332120200520144314.00-8131-8513-00-8131-5859-1(CKB)3710000000334205(EBL)1915379(SSID)ssj0001401442(PQKBManifestationID)12604398(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001401442(PQKBWorkID)11364417(PQKB)11365504(OCoLC)606984893(MdBmJHUP)muse43995(Au-PeEL)EBL1915379(CaPaEBR)ebr11009833(CaONFJC)MIL690945(OCoLC)900344778(MiAaPQ)EBC1915379(EXLCZ)99371000000033420520150206h19981998 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAuthority and female authorship in colonial America /William J.

Should women attempt to write at all? Did these activities violate the hierarchy of the universe and men's and women's places in it? Colonial American women relied on the same authorities and traditions as did colonial men, but they encountered special difficulties validating themselves in writing. William Scheick explores logonomic conflict in the works of northeastern colonial women, whose writings often register anxiety not typical of their male contemporaries.
