Julia Donaldson celebrates her readers in this delightful and
imaginative picture book, inspired by the children she has met at
hundreds of book signings over the years. I've signed for boys
called Romeo and girls called Juliet . I've signed for Roman,
Saxon, Dane- Though not for Norman yet. From months of the year,
colours, flowers, food and gemstones, Julia has seamlessly grouped
together a charming selection of children's names and woven them
together in her unmistakable rhyming style. Set in a magical
transforming bookshop, A Book of Names is a love letter to the
world of books and young bookworms - illustrated by the
award-winning Nila Aye. Readers will enjoy trying to find their own
name, and even if it isn't included, there is a special dedicated
space for them to add it, or even better, for Julia to sign!

This volume takes a global view of the emergence of public protest
movements over the last decade, asking whether such movements
contribute to the globalization of civil society. Through a variety
of studies, organised around the themes of public agency, public
norms, public memory and public art, it considers the tendency of
political contestations to move beyond national boundaries and
create transnational connections. Departing from the approaches of
social movements perspectives, it focuses on public space as a site
of social "mixity" and opens up a new field for the study of
politics and cultural controversies. An analysis of the
paradigmatic change in the way in which society is made and
politics is conducted, this study of the new enactment of
citizenship in public space will appeal to scholars of sociology,
anthropology, geography and politics with interests in protest
movements and contentious politics, citizenship and the public
sphere, and globalization.

Music is an expression of feelings of the soul conveyed through the
medium of sound. But not all sounds are music. It might be said
that only an organised sound or series of sounds can be called
music. Thus, music is connected to the eternal and constant flow
and order of the universe, to the laws and rhythms of nature. It
can also be said that musical order is comparable to the natural
order of the universe. There are laws of a certain nature in the
natural sciences and likewise in music there are structures and
procedures, or even rules, that should be followed to produce
beautiful music. The International Conference "Innovations for 21st
Century Music Education and Research" provided a timely opportunity
to take stock of the latest developments in music education and
brought together educators, researchers and members of the broader
community in a welcoming forum in which they were able to express
theoretical and practical views, concepts, research results and
principles to help support the further development of music
education.

Readers of poetry make aesthetic judgements about verse. It is
quite common to hear intuitive statements about poets' rhythms. It
is said, for example, that Joseph Brodsky, the Russian poet and
1987 Nobel Prize laureate, "sounds English" when he writes in
Russian. Yet, it is far from clear what this statement means from a
linguistic point of view. What is English about Brodsky's Russian
poetry? And in what way are his "English" rhythms different from
the verse of his Russian predecessors? The book provides an
analysis of Brodsky's experiment bringing evidence from an
unusually wide variety of disciplines and theories rarely combined
in a single study, including the generative approach to meter; the
Russian quantitative approach, analysis of readers' intuitions
about poetic rhythm, analysis of the poet's source readings, as
well as acoustic phonetics, statistics, and archival research. The
distinct analytic approaches applied in this book to the same
phenomenon complement one another each providing insight alternate
approaches do not, and showing that only a combination of theories
and methods allows us to fully appreciate what Brodsky's "English
accent" really was, and what any poetic innovation means.
This book will create greater public awareness of some recent
exciting findings in the formal study of poetry. The last
influential volume on the subject, Rhythm and Meter , edited by
Paul Kiparsky and Gilbert Youmans, appeared fifteen years ago.
Since that time, a number of important theoretical developments
have taken place, which have led to new approaches to the analysis
of meter. This volume represents some of the most exciting current
thinking on the theory of meter. In terms of empirical coverage,
the papers focus on a wide variety of languages, including English,
Finnish, Estonian, Russian, Japanese, Somali, Old Norse, Latin, and
Greek. Thus, the collection is truly international in its scope.
The volume also contains diverse theoretical approaches that are
brought together for the first time, including Optimality Theory
(Kiparsky, Hammond), other constraint-based approaches (Friedberg,
Hall, Scherr), the Quantitative approach to verse (Tarlinskaja,
Friedberg, Hall, Scherr, Youmans) associated with the Russian
school of metrics, a mora-based approach (Cole and Miyashita,
Fitzgerald), a semantic-pragmatic approach (Fabb), and an
alternative generative approach developed in Estonia (M. Lotman and
M. K. Lotman). The book will be of interest to both linguists
interested in stress and speech rhythm, constraint systems,
phrasing, and phonology-syntax interaction and poetry, as well as
to students of poetry interested in the connection between language
and literature.
