More than 3,400 colleges and universities in the United States
serve 20.5 million students. While each campus is unique, most
campuses and institutions face common issues, including tenure and
promotion; budgeting; competition among disciplines for space and
funding; academic bullying; and issues of identity. These are just
a few of the topics among the many vital areas of concern at
schools across the country. In Bridges not Blockades, personal
essays related to these cultural and political matters will allow
faculty and administrators in higher education to see, hear, and
better understand the inner workings of our institutions. Perhaps
more importantly, this book demonstrates that faculty and staff at
colleges and universities need to embrace our commonalities so that
we can meet the challenges of higher education throughout the 21st
century. Indeed, some of these essays may suggest ways in which
faculty, staff, and administrators have moved from differences to
commitment to shared goals to tackle new and existing challenges
and opportunities.

Teacher, Scholar, Mother advances a more productive conversation
across disciplines on motherhood through its discussion on
intersecting axes of power and privilege. This multi- and
trans-disciplinary book features mother scholars who bring their
theoretical and disciplinary lenses to bear on questions of
identity, practice, policy, institutional memory, progress, and the
gendered notion of parenting that still pervades the modern
academy.
Taking a new approach to the metaphor of the political body, this
book examines Shakespeare's representation of that body as
possessing epistemological faculties. The theater is one of these
faculties, and is, therefore, essential to the health and survival
of the Early Modern state. By depicting the theater as an essential
faculty of the body politic, Shakespeare offers a defense of the
theater against anti-theatrical critics. Students and teachers
interested in the body and its representations in literature will
find this text illuminating as will those scholars whose work
focuses on knowledge, its relationship to the body, ways of
knowing, and anti-theatrical prejudice.
