Terms of Art --$tNotes --$tIndex 330 $aIn this lively and provocative book, cultural critic Marjorie Garber, who has written on topics as different as Shakespeare, dogs, cross-dressing, and real estate, explores the pleasures and pitfalls of the academic life. Academic Instincts discusses three of the perennial issues that have surfaced in recent debates about the humanities: the relation between "amateurs" and "professionals," the relation between one academic discipline and another, and the relation between "jargon" and "plain language." Rather than merely taking sides, the book explores the ways in which such debates are essential to intellectual life. Garber argues that the very things deplored or defended in discussions of the humanities cannot be either eliminated or endorsed because the discussion itself is what gives humanistic thought its vitality. Written in spirited and vivid prose, and full of telling detail drawn both from the history of scholarship and from the daily press, Academic Instincts is a book by a well-known Shakespeare scholar and prize-winning teacher who offers analysis rather than polemic to explain why today's teachers and scholars are at once breaking new ground and treading familiar paths. It opens the door to an important nationwide and worldwide conversation about the reorganization of knowledge and the categories in and through which we teach the humanities. And it does so in a spirit both generous and optimistic about the present and the future of these disciplines. 606 $aHumanities$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 606 $aLiterature$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xCurricula 606 $aAcademic writing 606 $aHumanities$xPhilosophy 606 $aLearning and scholarship 615 0$aHumanities$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aLiterature$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xCurricula. 615 0$aAcademic writing. 615 0$aHumanities$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aLearning and scholarship. 676 $a001.3/071/1 700 $aGarber$b Marjorie B$0155358 701 $aTenniel$b John$f1820-1914.$0191572 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972266503321 996 $aAcademic instincts$94474439 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02837nam 22005773u 450 001 9910967670403321 005 20251117111143.0 010 $a1-317-54566-4 010 $a1-315-72935-0 010 $a1-317-54567-2 035 $a(CKB)2670000000572309 035 $a(EBL)1821346 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1821346 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3061139 035 $a(OCoLC)863199486 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB136706 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000572309 100 $a20141027d2014|||| u|| | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aSexual Hospitality in the Hebrew Bible $ePatronymic, Metronymic, Legitimate and Illegitimate Relations 210 $aHoboken $cTaylor and Francis$d2014 210 1$aSheffield :$cEquinox Pub.

As a daughter she was firmly under the aegis of her father and brothers, who would later allocate the woman to another man as his wife. The power of fathers and husbands extended to using their wives and daughters as sexual gifts to gain favour. Yet, alongside this, woman had certain socio-economic rights notably concerning inheritance and property - which they could use to protect themselves. 'Sexual Hospitality in the Hebrew Bible' examines sacred sexuality and ritual fecundity from patronymic marriage - w 606 $aBible.
