Even readers who have long loved Mythago Wood are likely to be pleasantly surprised at how thoroughly Kincaid unravels the true depth and complexity of the novel." -Gary K. Wolfe, Professor of Humanities Emeritus, Roosevelt University, USA This book is a detailed examination of one of the most important works of fantasy literature from the twentieth century. It goes through Mythago Wood by Robert Holdstock considering how it engages with war on a personal and family level, how it plays with ideas of time as something fluid and disturbing, and how it presents mythology as something crude and dangerous. The book places Mythago Wood in the context of Holdstock's other works, noting in parthow complex ideas of time have been a consistent element in his fiction. The book also briefly examines how the themes laid out in Mythago Wood are carried through into later books in the sequence as well as the Merlin Codex. Paul Kincaid is the author of books on Iain Banks, Christopher Priest, and Brian Aldiss, as well as two collections of essays. He has twice won the BSFA Non-Fiction Award and has also received the Science Fiction Research Association's Thomas Clareson Award. 410 0$aPalgrave Science Fiction and Fantasy: A New Canon,$x2662-8570 606 $aFiction 606 $aPopular culture 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y21st century 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aFiction Literature 606 $aPopular Culture 606 $aContemporary Literature 606 $aLiterary Criticism 615 0$aFiction. 615 0$aPopular culture. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 14$aFiction Literature. 615 24$aPopular Culture. 615 24$aContemporary Literature. 615 24$aLiterary Criticism. 676 $a809.3 676 $a823.92 700 $aKincaid$b Paul$01094553 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910588591203321 996 $aRobert Holdstock's Mythago Wood$92907952 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04400nam 22009013 450 001 9910765888803321 005 20231110172225.0 010 $a9786610478262 010 $a9781134206810 010 $a113420681X 010 $a9781134206827 010 $a1134206828 010 $a9781280478260 010 $a1280478268 010 $a9780203028018 010 $a0203028015 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203028018 035 $a(CKB)1000000000359424 035 $a(EBL)261325 035 $a(OCoLC)475976763 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000180033 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11168968 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000180033 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10149204 035 $a(PQKB)10028848 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC261325 035 $a(OCoLC)70858985 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/33061 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7245501 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7245501 035 $a(OCoLC)1378935185 035 $a(PPN)235632732 035 $a(ScCtBLL)d5cd8b9c-ef59-4d93-8ba2-1c143fc3e6d1 035 $a(OCoLC)1135848209 035 $a(oapen)doab33061 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000359424 100 $a20231110h20172006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aInstitutional and technological change in Japan's economy $epast and present /$fedited by Janet Hunter and Cornelia Storz 210 $cTaylor & Francis$d2006 210 1$aAbingdon, Oxon :$cRoutledge,$d2017. 210 4$dİ2006 215 $a1 online resource (225 p.) 225 1 $aRoutledge contemporary Japan series ;$v6 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780415648585 311 08$a0415648580 311 08$a9780415368223 311 08$a0415368227 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aIntroduction : economic and institutional change in Japan / Janet Hunter and Cornelia Storz -- Technology and change in Japan's modern copper mining industry / Patricia Sippel -- Professionalism as power : Tajiri Inajiro? and the modernisation of Meiji finance / Katalin Ferber -- Investment, importation and innovation : genesis and growth of beer corporations in prewar Japan / Harald Fuess -- Managing female textile workers : an industry in transition, 1945-1975 / Helen Macnaughtan -- Japan's inter-firm relations : on the way towards a market-oriented structure? / Andreas Moerke -- Global finance, democracy, and the state in Japan / Takaaki Suzuki -- Changes and crisis in the Japanese banking industry / Mariusz Krawczyk -- International mergers and acquisitions with Japanese participation : two cases from the automotive industry / Sigrun Caspary -- Environmental protection and the impact of institutional change / Ilona Koester -- Changes in conducting foresight in Japan / Kerstin Cuhls. 330 $aInstitutional and technological change is a highly topical subject. At the theoretical level, there is much debate in the field of institutional economics about the role of technological change in endogenous growth theory. At a practical policy level, arguments rage about how Japan and the Japanese economy should plan for the future. In this book, leading economists and economic historians of Japan examine a range of key issues concerning institutional and technological change in Japan, rigorously using discipline-based tools of analysis, and drawing important conclusions as t 410 0$aRoutledge contemporary Japan series ;$v6. 606 $aSocial Science / Regional Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics / Economics$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Black Studies (Global)$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial sciences 607 $aJapan$xEconomic conditions$y1945- 607 $aJapan$xEconomic policy$y1945- 615 7$aSocial Science / Regional Studies 615 7$aBusiness & Economics / Economics 615 7$aSocial Science / Black Studies (Global) 615 0$aSocial sciences. 676 $a330.952/04 686 $a83.62$2bcl 702 $aHunter$b Janet 702 $aStorz$b Cornelia 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765888803321 996 $aInstitutional and Technological Change in Japan's Economy$92040303 997 $aUNINA
