Weaving together the interrelated movements of Spiritualism along with its specific Franco and Latin American currents, articles explore the nineteenth-century beginnings of séances and trance mediumship. Channelling, an heir to Spiritualism begun in the 1970s and still flourishing today, is brought into direct conversation with its predecessors with a view to showing both continuity and disjuncture as the products of new cultural and religious needs. The Brill Handbook marks the first extensive collection on these two interrelated movements and examines themes such as gender, race, performance, and technology in each instance.Brill handbooks on contemporary religion ;Volume 9.SpiritualismChanneling (Spiritualism)Electronic books.Spiritualism.Channeling (Spiritualism)133.9Gutierrez Cathy1967-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459745203321Handbook of spiritualism and channeling2205144UNINA03084nam 2200421 450 991081755180332120200520144314.01-78660-903-7(CKB)4100000007006969(MiAaPQ)EBC5534244(Au-PeEL)EBL5534244(OCoLC)1056109515(EXLCZ)99410000000700696920181019d2018 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierChinese martial arts and media culture global perspectives /edited by Tim TrauschLondon ;New York :Rowman & Littlefield International,2018.1 online resource (238 pages)1-78660-902-9 Introduction : Martial Arts and Media Culture in the Information Era : Glocalization, Heterotopia, Hyperculture / Tim Trausch -- The Demise of the Wuxia Film?

As tropes of martial arts are not restricted to what is considered one medium, one region, or one (sub)genre, the essays in this collection are looking across and beyond these alleged borders. From 1920s wuxia cinema to the computer game cultures of the information age, they trace the continuities and transformations of martial arts and media culture across time, space, and multiple media platforms.Martial artsChinaChinagndCriticism, interpretation, etc.fastMartial arts796.815Trausch TimMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817551803321Chinese martial arts and media culture4052374UNINA04705nam 22008055 450 991048361900332120251226202417.03-540-77503-X10.1007/978-3-540-77503-4(DE-He213)978-3-540-77503-4(MiAaPQ)EBC3062142(MiAaPQ)EBC6705762(Au-PeEL)EBL6705762(PPN)123740193(CKB)1000000000490195(MiAaPQ)EBC336810(BIP)37159763(BIP)17712488(EXLCZ)99100000000049019520100715d2007 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierActive Conceptual Modeling of Learning Next Generation Learning-Base System Development /edited by Peter P.
