Kenneth Parker gives a historical and critical exposition of
commentaries of the play. These are traced back to firmly held
assumptions, about theories of literary production and consumption
as well as political relations, not yet wholly shed in the present.
Dominant traditions (of Cleopatra as 'whore' and 'gypsy'; of Antony
as 'deserter'; of 'Rome' as the measure by which it, as well as
'Egypt' should be read) are not simply questioned, but instead,
close reading of the text of the play provides a comprehensive set
of alternative readings based upon mostly postcolonial and feminist
theories. From this there emerges the concluding argument that, of
all Shakespeare's plays, Antony and Cleopatra is the text for our
times; one that is 'past the size of dreaming'.
The electrostatic precipitator remains one of the most
cost-effective means of controlling the emission of particulates
from most industrial processes, including pollution from power
stations. The author reviews the basic theory and operation of
precipitators, the characteristics of gas and particulates that
impact on design and operation, and the design of high- and
mains-frequency rectification equipment. Chapters also cover
performance monitoring and enhancement, and fault detection. The
author shows how recent high-power, fast switching equipment has
enabled new high-frequency energisation equipment to be introduced,
which further improves precipitator performance and in turn reduces
emissions and the level of pollution. As environmental standards
and regulations are progressively tightened, improvements in
pollution control technology such as electrostatic precipitators
are vital for the continued operation of coal- and biomass-burning
power plants, steelworks and other energy-intensive boilers and
related industrial processes. The book should help the professional
engineer and non-specialist to assess the potential design and
operation of electrostatic precipitators and how to govern and
control performance. It will be of particular relevance to
electrical engineers, process engineers and those in the
environmental/pollution control fields.
