It aims to align engineering curricula with socially just outcomes, increase enrollment among underrepresented groups, and lessen lingering gender, class, and ethnicity gaps by showing how the power of engineering knowledge can be explicitly harnessed to serve the underserved and address social inequalities. This book is meant to transform the way educators think about engineering curricula through creating or transforming existing courses to attract, retain, and motivate engineering students to become professionals who enact engineering for social justice.</p> <p><i>Engineering Justice</i> offers thought-provoking chapters on: why social justice is inherent yet often invisible in engineering education and practice; engineering design for social justice; social justice in the engineering sciences; social justice in humanities and social science courses for engineers; and transforming engineering education and practice. In addition, this book: </p> <ul> <li>Provides a transformative framework for engineering educators in service learning, professional communication, humanitarian engineering, community service, social entrepreneurship, and social responsibility</li> <li>Includes strategies that engineers on the job can use to advocate for social justice issues and explain their importance to employers, clients, and supervisors</li> <li>Discusses diversity in engineering educational contexts and how it affects the way students learn and develop</li> </ul> <p><i>Engineering Justice </i>is an important book for today’s professors, administrators, and curriculum specialists who seek to produce the best engineers of today and tomorrow.</p>.IEEE PCS professional engineering communication series.Engineering ethicsEngineeringPhilosophyEngineering ethics.EngineeringPhilosophy.620.001Leydens Jon A.1213687Lucena Juan C.CaBNVSLCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910270872203321Engineering justice2802930UNINA04154nam 2200721 450 991081576020332120230129050750.01-4426-9602-810.3138/9781442696020(CKB)2670000000187584(OCoLC)785803011(CaPaEBR)ebrary10541229(SSID)ssj0000623064(PQKBManifestationID)11385822(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000623064(PQKBWorkID)10655656(PQKB)11571238(CEL)438813(CaBNVSL)slc00228454(DE-B1597)479414(OCoLC)1032693074(OCoLC)979743507(DE-B1597)9781442696020(Au-PeEL)EBL4672864(CaPaEBR)ebr11258515(MiAaPQ)EBC4672864(MiAaPQ)EBC3279066(OCoLC)1298518541(MdBmJHUP)musev2_105765(EXLCZ)99267000000018758420160923h20112011 uy 0engurcn||||||a||txtccrKissing the wild woman art, beauty, and the reformation of the Italian prose romance in Giulia Bigolina's Urania /Christopher NissenToronto, [Ontario] ;Buffalo, [New York] ;London, [England] :University of Toronto Press,2011.©20111 online resource (342 p.)Toronto Italian studies Kissing the wild woman1-4426-4340-4 Includes bibliographical references and index.1 The Reformation of the Prose Romance ; Bigolina's Cultural Formation ; Elements of the Prose Romance ; The Plot and Characters of Urania ; The Prose Romance According to Boccaccio ; Urania in Its Literary Context ; Bigolina's Defense of Women -- 2 Writing a Portrait ; Bigolina and Aretino ; Portraiture in Urania ; The Caricature of Titian ; Of Mirrors, Istoria and Women in the Arts -- 3 Ekphrasis and the Paragone ; Ekphrasis in Western Literature ; Bigolina and the Paragone ; The Judgment of Paris ; Descriptio Mulieris ; Bigolina's Two Venuses ; The Book as Object -- 4 The Sight of the Beautiful ; Beauty and the Senses in Urania ; Sight in the Doctrines of Love ; The Body, the Gaze, and the Arts ; The Woman's Portrait as Gift -- 5 Kissing the Wild Woman ; Wildness in Urania ; Urania's (Nearly) Mad Flight ; Femina Salvatica ; The Game of the Senses.Demonstrating that Bigolina challenged cultural authority by rejecting the prevailing views of both painting and literature, Nissen discusses Bigolina's suggestion that painting constituted an ineffectual, even immoral mode of self-promotion for women in relation to the views of the contemporary writer Pietro Aretino and the painter Titian. Kissing the Wild Woman's analysis of this little-known work adds a new dimension to the study of Renaissance aesthetics in relation to art history, Renaissance thought, women's studies, and Italian literature."--Pub. desc."Giulia Bigolina's (ca. 1516-ca. 1569) Urania (ca. 1552) is the oldest known prose romance to have been written by an Italian woman. In Kissing the Wild Woman, Christopher Nissen explores the unique aesthetic vision and innovative narrative features of Bigolina's greatest surviving work, in which she fashioned a new type of narrative that combined elements of the romance and the novella and included a polemical treatise on the moral implications of portraiture and the role of women in the arts.Painting in literatureAesthetics in literatureBeauty, Personal, in literatureItalyCivilization1559-1789Electronic books.
