Entrepreneurial Vision - Susan E. Reid - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Entrepreneurial Vision - Susan E. Reid - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

While many texts on entrepreneurship and biographies of great entrepreneurs and leaders talk about vision and its importance, few delve into what vision is, how it comes to be, and, how it can be more successfully developed. This book, built on evidence-based research, delves into the entire entrepreneurial visioning process. Starting with understanding the elements which characterize strong and sustainable vision, the authors detail proposed steps, supported by examples and worksheets, that students and entrepreneurs can take to build and implement their vision and, in turn, help put them on the path to build great businesses.

Animal Visions - Susan Mary Pyke - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Animal Visions - Susan Mary Pyke - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Animal Visions considers how literature responds to the harms of anthropocentricism, working with Emily Brontë''s Wuthering Heights (1847) and various adaptations of this canonistic novel to show how posthumanist dream writing unsettles the privileging of the human species over other species. Two feminist and post-Freudian responses, Kathy Acker''s poem "Obsession" (1992) and Anne Carson''s "The Glass Essay" (1997) most strongly extend Brontë''s dream writing in this direction. Building on the trope of a ludic Cathy ghost who refuses the containment of logic and reason, these and other adaptations offer the gift of a radical peri-hysteria. This emotional excess is most clearly seen in Kate Bush''s music video "Wuthering Heights" (1978) and Peter Kosminsky''s film Wuthering Heights (1992). Such disturbances make space for a moor love that is particularly evident in Jane Urquhart''s novel Changing Heaven (1989) and, to a lesser extent Sylvia Plath''s poem, "Wuthering Heights" (1961). Brontë''s Wuthering Heights and its most productive afterings make space for co-affective relations between humans and other animal beings. Andrea Arnold''s film Wuthering Heights (2011) and Luis Buñuel''s Abismos de Pasión (1954) also highlight the rupturing split gaze of non-acting animals in their films. In all of these works depictions of intra-active and entangled responses between animals show the potential for dynamic and generative multispecies relations, where the human is one animal amongst the kin of the world.

Understanding Well-being Data - Susan Oman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Understanding Well-being Data - Susan Oman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

''Following the data'' is a now-familiar phrase in Covid-19 policy communications. Well-being data are pivotal in decisions that affect our life chances, livelihoods and quality of life. They are increasingly valuable to companies with their eyes on profit, organisations looking to make a social impact, and governments focussed on societal problems. This book follows well-being data back centuries, showing they have long been used to track the health and wealth of society. It questions assumptions that have underpinned over 200 years of social science, statistical and policy work. Understanding Well-being Data is a readable, introductory book with real-life examples. Understanding the contexts of data and decision-making are critical for policy, practice and research that aims to do good, or at least avoid harm. Through its comprehensive survey and critical lens, this book provides tools to promote better understanding of the power and potential of well-being data for society, and the limits of their application.

D.H. Lawrence, Music and Modernism - Susan Reid - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

D.H. Lawrence, Music and Modernism - Susan Reid - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This first book-length study of D. H. Lawrence''s lifelong engagement with music surveys his extensive musical interests and how these permeate his writing, while also situating Lawrence within a growing body of work on music and modernism. A twin focus considers the music that shaped Lawrence''s novels and poetry, as well as contemporary developments in music that parallel his quest for new forms of expression. Comparisons are made with the music of Debussy, Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Wagner, and British composers, including Bax, Holst and Vaughan Williams, and with the musical writings of Forster, Hardy, Hueffer (Ford), Nietzsche and Pound. Above all, by exploring Lawrence and music in historical context, this study aims to open up new areas for study and a place for Lawrence within the field of music and modernism.

Learning the Secrets of English Verse - Susan Delaney Spear - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Learning the Secrets of English Verse - Susan Delaney Spear - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This textbook teaches the writing of poetry by examining all the major verse forms and repeating stanza forms in English. It provides students with the tools to compose successful lines of poetry and focuses on meter (including free verse), rhythm, rhyme, and the many other tools a poet needs to create both music and meaningfulness in an artful poem. Presenting copious examples from strong poets of the past and present along with many recent student examples, all of which are scanned, each chapter offers lessons in poetic history and the practice of writing verse, along with giving students a structured opportunity to experiment writing in all the forms discussed. In Part 1, Rothman and Spear begin at the beginning, with Anglo-Saxon Strong Stress Alliterative Meter and examine every major meter in English, up to and including the free verse forms of modern and contemporary poetry. Part 2 presents a close examination of stanza forms that moves from the simple to the complex, beginning with couplets and ending with the 14-line Eugene Onegin stanza. The goal of the book is to give students the essential skills to understand how any line of poetry in English may have been composed, the better to enjoy them and then also write their own: the keys to the treasure chest. Rothman and Spear present a rigorous curriculum that teaches the craft of poetry through a systematic examination and practice of the major English meters and verse forms. Under their guidance, students hone their craft while studying the rich traditions and innovations of poets writing in English. Suitable for high school students and beyond. I studied with Rothman in graduate school and went through this course with additional scholarly material. This book will help students develop a keen ear for the music of the English language. -Teow Lim Goh, author of Islanders

Academic Identity and the Place of Stories - Susan Carter - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Academic Identity and the Place of Stories - Susan Carter - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book explores academic identity development in the 21st century university. Recognising dramatic shifts in academic practices and landscapes, the book pushes back on rising neoliberalism with a person-focused, culturally aware pathway for career development. Stories of the author''s own experiences intersect a solid grounding in educational literature, encouraging scholars to take an active role in considering their own academic identity. In doing so, this volume suggests that academics look inward at what matters to them - rather than being overwhelmed by academia - in order to shape identities and career trajectories that are dynamic and satisfying.

The Making and Mirroring of Masculine Subjectivities - Susan Mooney - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The Making and Mirroring of Masculine Subjectivities - Susan Mooney - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book shows how diverse, critical modern world narratives in prose fiction and film emphasize masculine subjectivities through affects and ethics. Highlighting diverse affects and mental states in subjective voices and modes, modern narratives reveal men as feeling, intersubjective beings, and not as detached masters of master narratives. Modern novels and films suggest that masculine subjectivities originate paradoxically from a combination of copying and negation, surplus and lack, sameness and alterity: among fathers and sons, siblings and others. In this comparative study of more than 30 diverse world narratives, Mooney deftly uses psychoanalytic thought, narrative theories of first- and third-person narrators, and Levinasian and feminist ethics of care, creativity, honor, and proximity. We gain a nuanced picture of diverse postpaternal postgentlemen emerging out of older character structures of the knight and gentleman.

British Justice, War Crimes and Human Rights Violations - Susan L. Kemp - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

British Justice, War Crimes and Human Rights Violations - Susan L. Kemp - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book examines the UK approach to investigating international crimes and serious human rights violations. In 2010, the United Nations Secretary General referred to the emerging system of international justice, including the creation of the International Criminal Court, as the ''Age of Accountability.''
