This book examines and assesses what the United States can learn from the European experience with capital punishment, especially the trajectory of abolition in different European nations. As a comparative sociology and history of the present, the book seeks to illuminate the way death penalty systems and their dissolution work, by means of eleven chapters written by an interdisciplinary group of authors from the United States and Europe. This work will help readers see how close the United States is to ending capital punishment and some of the cultural and institutional barriers that stand in the way of abolition. 606 $aCapital punishment$zEurope 606 $aCapital punishment$zUnited States 615 0$aCapital punishment 615 0$aCapital punishment 676 $a364.66094 702 $aSarat$b Austin 702 $aMartschukat$b Ju?rgen 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464236003321 996 $aIs the death penalty dying$92472872 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00891nam0 2200301 450 001 9910584697003321 005 20220803091331.0 010 $a9788829014545 100 $a20220803d2022----km y0itay50 ba 101 0 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a 001yy 200 1 $aAmerica bianca$ela destra reazionaria dal Ku Klux Klan a Trump$fGiovanni Borgognone 210 $aRoma$cCarocci$d2022 215 $a167 p.$d22 cm 225 1 $aQuality paperbacks$v644 454 0$12001 610 0 $aMovimenti di estrema destra$aStati Uniti d'America$aSec. 21 610 0 $aRazzismo$aStati Uniti d'America$aSec. 21 676 $a302.52$v22$zita 700 1$aBorgognone,$bGiovanni$0330253 801 0$aIT$bUNINA$gREICAT$2UNIMARC 901 $aBK 912 $a9910584697003321 952 $a320.52 BOR 1$b9261$fBFS 959 $aBFS 996 $aAmerica bianca$92901202 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03381nam 2200709Ia 450 001 9910789868703321 005 20230331010906.0 010 $a1-283-09780-X 010 $a9786613097804 010 $a0-19-972275-7 035 $a(CKB)2670000000078309 035 $a(EBL)679616 035 $a(OCoLC)712015980 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000641185 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11398704 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000641185 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10632014 035 $a(PQKB)10343984 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC679616 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL679616 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10465679 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL309780 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000078309 100 $a19881007d1988 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe signifying monkey$b[electronic resource] $ea theory of Afro-American literary criticism /$fHenry Louis Gates, Jr 210 $aNew York $cOxford University Press$dc1988 215 $a1 online resource (319 pages) 300 $aIncludes index. 311 $a0-19-506075-X 320 $aBibliography: p.259-280. 327 $aPART ONE: A Theory of the Tradition; 1.

Examining the ancient poetry and myths found in African, Latin American, and Caribbean culture, and particularly the Yoruba trickster figure of Esu-Elegbara and the Signifying Monkey whose myths help articulate the black tradition's theory of its literature, Gates uncovers a unique system for interpretation and a pow 606 $aAmerican literature$xAfrican American authors$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc 606 $aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life 606 $aAfrican Americans in literature 606 $aCriticism$zUnited States 606 $aOral tradition$zUnited States 606 $aMythology, African, in literature 606 $aAfrican Americans$vFolklore 606 $aAmerican literature$xAfrican influences 615 0$aAmerican literature$xAfrican American authors$xHistory and criticism$xTheory, etc. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xIntellectual life. 615 0$aAfrican Americans in literature. 615 0$aCriticism 615 0$aOral tradition 615 0$aMythology, African, in literature. 615 0$aAfrican Americans 615 0$aAmerican literature$xAfrican influences. 676 $a810/.9/896073 700 $aGates$b Henry Louis$0243500 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789868703321 996 $aThe signifying monkey$93692137 997 $aUNINA
