This Is A New Release Of The Original 1896 Edition.
This book asks how 21st century technologies such as the Internet,
mobile phones and social media are transforming human memory and
its relationship to gender. Each epoch brings with it new media
technologies that have transformed human memory. Anna Reading
examines the ways in which globalised digital cultures are changing
the gender of memory and memories of gender through a lively set of
original case studies in the 'globital age'. The study analyses
imaginaries of gender, memory and technology in utopian literature;
it provides an examination of how foetal scanning alters the
gendered memories of the human being. Reading draws on original
research on women's use of mobile phones to capture and share
personal and family memories as well as analysing changes to
journalism and gendered memories, focusing on the mobile witnessing
of terrorism and state terror. The book concludes with a critical
reflection on Anna Reading's work as a playwright mobilising
feminist memories as part of a digital theatre project 'Phenomenal
Women with Fuel Theatre' which created live and digital memories of
inspirational women. The book explains in depth Reading's original
concept of digitised and globalised memory - 'globital memory' -
and suggests how the scholar may use mobile methodologies to
understand how memories travel and change in the globital age.
"A must-read for any aspiring or seasoned writer." --Huffington
Post We all have the call to create. The question is...why don't we
answer it? We all come pre-loaded with a creative spark that drives
us to innovate, explore, express, and make our unique contribution
to the world. Often, though, that drive doesn't get us very far
down the road before it runs right smack into resistance--the
mysterious force that thwarts creativity. But resistance needn't be
the enemy of writing--or any other creative endeavor. Deb Norton's
Part Wild provides fun and practical ways to turn resistance into a
creative asset. Whether it presents as doubt, perfectionism, or
Deb's favorite: a chorus of withering inner critics, the power of
resistance can be leveraged to launch the creative process with
real momentum. Once we harness resistance, we can let our creative
impulses off the leash. Norton has turned a decade of sold-out
writing retreats and private coaching into a process for powering
up your creative ideas. In Part Wild, she shares dozens of
illuminating and effective practices and quick-start prompts that
are guaranteed to get us out of our heads and onto the page. Just
as The Artist's Way gave millions of readers permission to explore
their creative side, Part Wild shows writers of all levels of
experience and skill how to harness the electrifying power of
resistance and get writing.
