This study investigates the paradoxical dynamics of American high
culture in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by
examining the strategies of Americans who wrote about European art
in order to promote and legitimize literary careers. Contrary to
the myths they themselves disseminated, American writers in Europe
did not escape American culture but rather created and participated
in US. Cultural institutions like journals, museums, and
universities. Transatlantic careers articulated a cult of Europe in
a privileged American space, served social and aesthetic
hierarchies, and constructed formidable versions of professional
authority of American writers.

Learn how to use the core Hibernate APIs and tools as part of the Spring Framework. This book illustrates how these two frameworks can be best utilized. Other persistence solutions available in Spring are also shown including the Java Persistence API (JPA). Spring Persistence with Hibernate, Second Edition has been updated to cover Spring Framework version 4 and Hibernate version 5. After reading and using this book, you'll have the fundamentals to apply these persistence solutions into your own mission-critical enterprise Java applications that you build using Spring. Persistence is an important set of techniques and technologies for accessing and using data, and ensuring that data is mobile regardless of specific applications and contexts. In Java development, persistence is a key factor in enterprise, e-commerce, and other transaction-oriented applications. Today, the agile and open source Spring Framework is the leading out-of-the-box, open source solution for enterprise Java developers; in it, you can find a number of Java persistence solutions. What You'll Learn Use Spring Persistence, including using persistence tools in Spring as well as choosing the best Java persistence frameworks outside of Spring Take advantage of Spring Framework features such as Inversion of Control (IoC), aspect-oriented programming (AOP), and more Work with Spring JDBC, use declarative transactions with Spring, and reap the benefits of a lightweight persistence strategy Harness Hibernate and integrate it into your Spring-based enterprise Java applications for transactions, data processing, and more Integrate JPA for creating a well-layered persistence tier in your enterprise Java application Who This Book Is For This book is ideal for developers interested in learning more about persistence framework options on the Java platform, as well as fundamental Spring concepts. Because the book covers several persistence frameworks, it is suitable for anyone interested in learning more about Spring or any of the frameworks covered. Lastly, this book covers advanced topics related to persistence architecture and design patterns, and is ideal for beginning developers looking to learn more in these areas.

This book explores how comics function to make meanings in the manner of a language. It outlines a framework for describing the resources and practices of comics creation and readership, using an approach that is compatible with similar descriptions of linguistic and multimodal communication. The approach is based largely on the work of Michael Halliday, drawing also on the pragmatics of Paul Grice, the Text World Theory of Paul Werth and Joanna Gavins, and ideas from art theory, psychology and narratology. This brings a broad Hallidayan framework of multimodal analysis to comics scholarship, and plays a part in extending that tradition of multimodal linguistics to graphic narrative.

"A sweeping biography . . . [Fisher] gives fair and sympathetic time to everyone, and provides a lively and detailed social history of the period." --"The New York Times" The James family, a true American dynasty, gave the world three famous children: Henry, a novelist of genius; William, an influential philosopher; and Alice, an invalid who became a feminist icon, despite her sheltered life and struggles with mental illness. Paul Fisher's masterly biography provides a captivating account of the conflicts--bitter struggles with depression, alcoholism, jealousy, and panic disorders--that shaped the members of this brilliant family, including the two other brothers, Wilkie and Bob, whose achievements were constantly overshadowed by those of their siblings. Their mother, Mary, lent the family some stability, while the mercurial Henry James Sr. nurtured, inspired, and emotionally wounded his children, setting the stage for their intense rivalries and extraordinary achievements. "House of Wits" is a revealing cultural history that completes our understanding of its remarkable protagonists and the changing world in which they came of age.
