This collection studies beauty vlogging as a phenomenon operating
at the intersection of celebrity culture, digital communities, and
the cosmetics industry. Exploring subjects ranging from race and
gender to disability and religion, the chapters examine how the
genre has impacted social media landscapes and gender expression.
The contributors analyze how beauty vlogging makes community and
economic success seem accessible for viewers as well as how the
beauty vlog itself can function as a platform for enacting and
inspiring social commentary and change. Makeup in the World of
Beauty Vlogging studies the cultural phenomenon of the beauty vlog
as a space where audiences and vloggers find a voice and a means of
personal expression via the potentially subversive power of makeup
and social media.
"The book provides an excellent overview of mango cultivation
across the world... a comprehensive foundation of knowledge on
which future research strategies can be built." Chronica
Horticulturae Mangoes are one of the most important and
widely-cultivated fruits in tropical as well as sub-tropical
regions. There have been a number of recent developments with the
potential to improve crop yields and quality. There has been new
research in understanding the physiology of tree and fruit
development with implications for both breeding and cultivation.
Analysis of the mango genome promises new, faster breeding
techniques to develop improved cultivars. These and other advances
are helping to tackle diseases and pests which still cause
significant losses. Drawing on an international range of expertise,
this collection focuses on ways of improving the cultivation of
mango as a food crop at each step in the value chain, from breeding
through to post-harvest storage. Part 1 discusses advances in
understanding tree growth, flowering, pollination and fruit
development as well as developments in marker-assisted breeding.
Part 2 reviews improvements in cultivation practice, including
organic and greenhouse cultivation. Part 3 covers post-harvest
management and quality, whilst the final part of the book assesses
disease and pest management. As the need for more interdisciplinary
and collaborative research increases, this collection will be a
standard reference for the mango research community by summarising
key research trends in each topic and putting them in the context
of mango cultivation as a whole.
Eleanora "Lady Day" Fagan, better known as Billie Holiday, played a
primary role in the development of American jazz culture and in
African American history. Devoted to the enduring jazz icon,
covering many aspects of her career, image and legacy, these essays
range from musical and vocal analyses, to critical assessments of
film depictions of the singer, to analysis of the social movements
and protests addressed by her signature songs, including her impact
on contemporary movements such as #BlackLivesMatter. More than a
century after her birth, Billie Holiday's abiding relevance and
impact is a testament to the power of musical protest. This
collection pays tribute to her creativity, bravery and lasting
legacy.
