Farms and stickers! These two kid favorites come together in the Barnyard Sticker Book. More than 250 colourful stickers capture every aspect of the farm, including all the animals - chickens, pigs, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, cows, horses, dogs, and cats-as well as the equipment, tools, and supplies - tractors, wheelbarrows, hay bales, wagons, pails, troughs, and feed. There are also stickers of farm kids to tend the animals, along with four fold-out scenes on the laminated covers: the full farm, a barn interior, an animal pen, and a chicken coop. Open the pages, pull off the stickers, and watch the barnyard drama begin!

This book examines how Shakespeare's plays resurface in current complex TV series. Its four case studies bring together The Tempest and the science fiction-Western Westworld, King Lear and the satirical dynastic drama of Succession, Hamlet and the legal thriller Black Earth Rising, as well as Coriolanus and the political thriller Homeland. The comparative readings ask what new insights the twenty-first-century remediations may grant us into Shakespeare's texts and, vice versa, how Shakespearean returns help us understand topical concerns negotiated in the series, such as artificial intelligence, the safeguarding of democracy, terrorism, and postcolonial justice. This study also proposes that the dramaturgical seriality typical of complex TV allows insights into the seriality Shakespeare employed in structuring his plays. Discussing a broad spectrum of adaptational constellations and establishing key characteristics of the new adaptational aggregate of serial Shakespeare, it seeks to initiate a dialogue between Shakespeare studies, adaptation studies, and TV studies.

This study takes a fresh look at the abundant scenarios of disguise in early modern prose fiction and suggests reading them in the light of the contemporary religio-political developments. More specifically, it argues that Elizabethan narratives adopt aspects of the heated Eucharist debate during the Reformation, including officially renounced notions like transubstantiation, to negotiate culturally pressing concerns regarding identity change. Drawing on the rich field of research on the adaptation of pre-Reformation concerns in Anglican England, the book traces a cross-fertilisation between the Reformation and the literary mode of romance. The study brings together topics which are currently being strongly debated in early modern studies: the turn to religion, a renewed interest in aesthetics, and a growing engagement with prose fiction. Narratives which are discussed in detail are William Baldwin's Beware the Cat, Robert Greene's Pandosto and Menaphon, Philip Sidney's Old and New Arcadia, and Thomas Lodge's Rosalynd and A Margarite of America, George Gascoigne's Steele Glas, John Lyly's Euphues: An Anatomy of Wit and Euphues and his England, Barnabe Riche's Farewell, Greene's A Quip for an Upstart Courtier, and Thomas Nashe's The Unfortunate Traveller.

This collection analyzes philosophical, psycho-analytic and aesthetic contexts of the discourse of melancholia in British and postcolonial literature and culture and seeks to trace the multi-faceted phenomenon of melancholia from the early modern period to the present. Texts discussed range from Shakespeare and Milton to Coetzee and Barker.

Wiederholungen strukturieren unsere Lebenswelt. In Ritualen, als rhetorische Figur oder bei der Entstehung von Mustern und Regeln wirken sie einerseits formbildend und geben Identitat und Orientierung. Andererseits stellen sie die Einmaligkeit und Ursprunglichkeit des wiederholten Gegenstands in Frage und unterlaufen so bestehende Ordnungen und Selbstverstandlichkeiten. Wiederholungen produzieren also stets Kippfiguren, die zwischen Affirmation und Subversion oszillieren und auf diese Weise zu paradoxen Effekten fuhren. Seit Soeren Kierkegaard ist dieses Paradox der Wiederholung zu einer wichtigen Denkfigur in den unterschiedlichsten Wissensdisziplinen geworden. Aus interdisziplinarer Perspektive untersucht der Sammelband ausgewahlte Kippfiguren der Wiederholung in Literatur, Theater, Film, bildender Kunst, Philosophie und Werbung.
