Teaching Shakespeare Beyond the Centre showcases a wide array of
recent, innovative and original research into Shakespeare and
learning in Australasia, in secondary, tertiary and adult
education. Premised on the dissolution of the centre/colony binary
that for so long structured the reception and teaching of
Shakespeare in the colonies, the book explores the use of local
knowledge and experience to invigorate and renew learning. In
elevating the value of the 'local', the book provides models of
educational theory and practice that are transferable and
adaptable. The editors have drawn on contributors with diverse
areas of expertise including dramatic practitioners, historicist
scholars, school teachers and academics who train teachers, and
literary scholars with an interest in new theoretical and practical
approaches to pedagogy.
The global greenhouse effect may be one of the greatest challenges
ever to face humankind. If fossil fuel use, and the consequent CO
emissions, 2 continue to increase at their current trend, there is
the possibility that over the next century there will be massive
climate change and the flooding of coastal areas. The economics
profession is beginning to respond to this challenge, through
seeking to understand the economic processes which detennine the
demand for energy, the proportion of this energy supplied by fossil
fuels, and the policy instruments available for reducing fossil
fuel demand while still supplying appropriate amounts of energy.
This study is a contribution to that literature. We examine the
impact of structural changes in the German and UK economies upon CO
emissions 2 over the last two decades, and explore the potential
for further structural change to reduce such emissions. This study
is different from much of the current literature, in that we do not
presuppose that the respective economies consist of only one, or a
few, sectors. Instead, we analyse the interrelationships of 47
sectors for about 20 years, using input-output methods. We also
deal with the effects of the changing sectoral structure of imports
and exports of these two countries on the 'responsibility' for CO
emissions. On the basis of this extensive evidence we have a solid
2 foundation to develop different scenarios to show how the
'Toronto target' of reducing CO emissions by 20% over 20 years can
be achieved.
Showcasing a wide array of recent, innovative and original research
into Shakespeare and learning in Australasia and beyond, this
volume argues the value of the 'local' and provides transferable
and adaptable models of educational theory and practice.

For religious persons, the notion of human being is tied
inextricably to the notion of God (or the gods) and turns on this
question: what is human being? How did we, with our almost infinite
capacities for thought, change, and domination, come to be? Imbued
with powers far beyond any other animal, humans are too faulty to
be considered gods themselves. Yet, the idea of God (or the gods)
appears in all distinctive human cultures: it names the other pole
of human_it designates a being who realizes perfectly our
imperfectly realized nature. With the rise of new sciences come
ancient anxieties about how we should define human being. In the
nineteenth century, electricity and magnetism fascinated experts
and captivated the lay public. In the twenty-first century,
advances in neuroscience open up vast new possibilities of
mimicking, and perhaps emulating human being. In this book twelve
scholars and scientists ask what_if anything_distinguishes Brain
from Mind, and Mind from Self and Soul.
