But arguments about the stranger are not unique to our time. In Romanticism and the Question of the Stranger, David Simpson locates the figure of the stranger and the rhetoric of strangeness in romanticism and places them in a tradition that extends from antiquity to today. Simpson shows that debates about strangers loomed large in the French Republic of the 1790s, resulting in heated discourse that weighed who was to be welcomed and who was to be proscribed as dangerous. Placing this debate in the context of classical, biblical, and other later writings, he identifies a persistent difficulty in controlling the play between the despised and the desired. He examines the stranger as found in the works of Coleridge, Austen, Scott, and Southey, as well as in depictions of the betrayals of hospitality in the literature of slavery and exploration-as in Mungo Park's Travels and Stedman's Narrative-and portrayals of strange women in de Staël, Rousseau, and Burney. Contributing to a rich strain of thinking about the stranger that includes interventions by Ricoeur and Derrida, Romanticism and the Question of the Stranger reveals the complex history of encounters with alien figures and our continued struggles with romantic concerns about the unknown. 606 $aRomanticism 606 $aOther (Philosophy) in literature 606 $aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRomanticism. 615 0$aOther (Philosophy) in literature. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a820.9/145 686 $aHL 1101$qBVB$2rvk 700 $aSimpson$b David$f1951-$0896954 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462154803321 996 $aRomanticism and the question of the stranger$92004178 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06178nam 22007572 450 001 9910457284403321 005 20160309115136.0 010 $a1-107-21856-X 010 $a1-139-20943-4 010 $a1-280-56868-2 010 $a1-139-22226-0 010 $a9786613598288 010 $a0-511-97789-1 010 $a1-139-22397-6 010 $a1-139-21745-3 010 $a1-139-21437-3 010 $a1-139-22054-3 035 $a(CKB)2550000000082901 035 $a(EBL)833420 035 $a(OCoLC)775869836 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000633478 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11463203 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000633478 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10620366 035 $a(PQKB)11396781 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9780511977893 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC833420 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL833420 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10533316 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL359828 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000082901 100 $a20101013d2012|||| uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCollecting, managing, and assessing data using sample surveys /$fPeter Stopher$b[electronic resource] 210 1$aCambridge :$cCambridge University Press,$d2012. 215 $a1 online resource (xxvi, 534 pages) $cdigital, PDF file(s) 300 $aTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). 311 $a0-521-68187-1 311 $a0-521-86311-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover;

Beginning with a primer on basic statistics, the first half of the book takes readers on a comprehensive tour through the basics of survey design. Topics covered include the ethics of surveys, the design of survey procedures, the design of the survey instrument, how to write questions and how to draw representative samples. Having shown readers how to design surveys, the second half of the book discusses a number of issues surrounding their implementation, including repetitive surveys, the economics of surveys, web-based surveys, coding and data entry, data expansion and weighting, the issue of non-response, and the documenting and archiving of survey data. The book is an excellent introduction to the use of surveys for graduate students as well as a useful reference work for scholars and professionals. 517 3 $aCollecting, Managing, & Assessing Data Using Sample Surveys 606 $aSurveys$xDesign 606 $aSurveys$xMethodology 606 $aSampling (Statistics) 615 0$aSurveys$xDesign. 615 0$aSurveys$xMethodology. 615 0$aSampling (Statistics) 676 $a001.422 700 $aStopher$b Peter R.$0103476 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457284403321 996 $aCollecting, managing, and assessing data using sample surveys$92477867 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00983nam0-22002891i-450 001 990004847170403321 005 20230123142848.0 035 $a000484717 035 $aFED01000484717 035 $a(Aleph)000484717FED01 100 $a19990530g19659999km-y0itay50------ba 101 0 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $af-------00--- 200 1 $aVoci di esuli politici meridionali$ecarteggi di Vittorio Imbriani$elettere e documenti dal 1849 al 1861 con appendici varie$fa cura di Nunzio Coppola 210 $aRoma$cIstituto per la Storia del Risorgimento Italiano$d1965 215 $a526 p., [5] tav.$d26 cm 225 1 $aBiblioteca Scientifica.
