Blasphemy and Politics in Romantic Literature - Paul Whickman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Blasphemy and Politics in Romantic Literature - Paul Whickman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book argues for the importance of blasphemy in shaping the literature and readership of Percy Bysshe Shelley and of the Romantic period more broadly. Not only are perceptions of blasphemy taken to be inextricable from politics, this book also argues for blasphemous ''irreverence'' as both inspiring and necessitating new poetic creativity. The book reveals the intersection of blasphemy, censorship and literary property throughout the ''Long Eighteenth Century'', attesting to the effect of this connection on Shelley''s poetry more specifically. Paul Whickman notes how Shelley''s perceived blasphemy determined the nature and readership of his published works through censorship and literary piracy. Simultaneously, Whickman crucially shows that aesthetics, content and the printed form of the physical text are interconnected and that Shelley''s political and philosophical views manifest themselves in his writing both formally and thematically.

Hope and Courage in the Climate Crisis - John Wiseman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

Hope and Courage in the Climate Crisis - John Wiseman - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

As the risks of the climate crisis continue to grow, so too do the challenges of facing a harsh climate future with honesty and courage; justice and compassion; meaning and purpose. Hope and Courage in the Climate Crisis explores diverse sources of learning and wisdom -from climate scientists and activists; philosophers and social theorists; Indigenous cultures and ways of life; faith based and spiritual traditions; artists and writers -which can help us live courageous, compassionate and creative lives in a world of rapidly accelerating climatic and ecological risk. Accelerating the transition to a just and resilient zero-carbon society will require visionary leadership and courageous collective action. Awareness that rapid action might still be insufficient to prevent severe and irreversible social and ecological damage is however a source of deep concern for many people passionately committed to decisive climate action. Drawing on broad experience as a climate activist, researcher and policy maker John Wiseman provides a wide ranging, accessible and provocative guided tour of ideas which can inspire and sustain radical hope and defiant courage in the long emergency which now lies before us.
