The Politics of Voice in Duke Ellington’s Beggar’s Holiday (1946) by James O’Leary

“…Focusing on the use of landscape in the Norwegian series Occupied (2015–2020) and Nobel (2016), this article examines the ways in which cityscapes and panoramas of the natural environment are employed as affective, as well as aesthetic tools for storytelling within a geopolitically inflected framework. Drawing on literature from popular geopolitics, geocriticism, and visual politics, my analysis interrogates the ways in which geopolitical codes and visions manifest via televisual fiction, reflecting a variety of insecurities associated with Norway's current position in world affairs, as well as contemporary challenges to Norwegian national identity. …”

Le poids de l’instant dans le récit ferroviaire contemporain by Mahigan Lepage

“…This article examines the problem of time in three contemporary railroad narratives published in France during the last decade: François Bon’s Paysage fer (2000), Sereine Berlottier’s Ferroviaires (2009) and Arnaud Maïsetti’s La Mancha (2009).

Advancing feminist understandings of woman abuse: the value of old wine in new bottles by Walter S. DeKeesredy

“…Despite making some of the most important advances in the social scientific study of woman abuse, feminist sociological research and theorizing that prioritize the concept of patriarchy have leveled off or declined in the last 15 years due, in large part, to the current hegemony of mainstream criminologists fundamentally opposed to a rich gendered understanding of one of the world's most compelling social problems. Drawing on nearly 50 years of research done by an international cadre of highly experienced scholars, this article demonstrates the importance of revisiting some major feminist conceptual, empirical, and theoretical contributions from the past. …”
