Forest fragmentation will inevitably continue over the coming
years, especially in developing economies. This book provides a
cutting edge review of the multi-disciplinary sciences related to
studies of global forest fragmentation. It specifically addresses
cross-cutting themes from both an ecological and a social sciences
perspective. The ultimate goal of "Global Forest Fragmentation" is
to provide a detailed scientific base to support future forest
landscape management and planning to meet global environmental and
societal needs.
A collection of essays providing insights into new directions in
rhetorical history Kathleen J. Turner's 1998 multicontributor
volume Doing Rhetorical History: Concepts and Cases quickly became
a foundational text in the field, and the studies in the book have
served as an important roadmap for scholars undertaking such
scholarship. In the decades since its publication, developments in
rhetorical-historical research, engaged scholarship, and academic
interventionism have changed the practice of rhetoric history
tremendously. To address this shift, Turner and Jason Edward Black
have edited a much-anticipated follow-up volume: Reframing
Rhetorical History: Cases, Theories, and Methodologies, which
reassesses both history as rhetoric and rhetorical history as
practice. This new book attends to a number of topics that have
become not just hot-button issues in rhetorical scholarship but
have entrenched themselves as anchors within the field. These
include digital rhetoric, public memory, race and ethnicity, gender
dynamics and sexualities, health and well-being, transnationalism
and globalization, social justice, archival methods and politics,
and colonialism and decoloniality. The sixteen essays are divided
into four major parts: "Digital Humanities and Culture" introduces
methods and cases using twenty-first century technologies;
"Identities, Cultures, and Archives" addresses race and gender
within the contexts of critical race theory, gendered health
rhetoric, race-based public memory, and class/sectionalism;
"Approaches to Nationalism and Transnationalism" explores
ideologies related to US and international cultures; and
"Metahistories and Pedagogies" explores creative ways to approach
the frame of metarhetorical history given what the field has
learned since the publication of Doing Rhetorical History.
