Performing Political Theory
Language: English
Published by Springer Verlag, Singapore, SG, 2018
ISBN 10: 9811079978 ISBN 13: 9789811079979
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: New. 1st ed. 2018. This book examines the performative role of influential thinkers in the history of modern Western political thought. The case studies examine influential political philosophers who saw their writing role 'performatively', as an exercise in pedagogy designed to generate a new type of political following among their readers. Machiavelli, Mill and Nietzsche wrote classic works in political theory (The Prince, On Liberty, Genealogy of Morals) to reform and reshape their readers' ability to think and act politically. Thinkers become performative through what they write in their public performance; and contemporary academic teachers can use this to great pedagogical effect in helping students 'get the point' of political theorising. This book examines how a small sample of classic theoretical performers wrote their remarkable public works. John Uhr draws on neglected or forgotten lessons on performative writing from past masters ofliterary criticism like Lord Shaftesbury, R G Collingwood and John Dewey, all of whom can help those now teaching the history of modern political thought to enable students to learn the performance of politics acted out by modernising thinkers capable of writing in ways similar to Machiavelli, Mill and Nietzsche.

Eureka (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Federation Press, Annandale, NSW, 2015
ISBN 10: 1760020451 ISBN 13: 9781760020453
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The editors of this book boldly proclaim that Eureka is Australia's greatest story and they have gathered together some of our countrys finest historians to prosecute the case. Collectively, they compile a strong argument. In the late 19th century that acute American observer, Mark Twain, called the Ballarat rebellion the finest thing in Australasian history and, like all such milestone moments in any countrys expanding tale, Eureka challenges because of the sheer number of interpretations that have been imposed upon it, both before Twain and after. During the sesquicentenary year of Eureka, 2004, one journalist rightly observed that Eureka is not so much history as many versions of history. The question of who owns the Eureka story is destined never to be answered, but one thing is certain: the superb Charter of Bakery Hill, an irresistible sequence of goldfield events leading to tragedy, a cast of characters drawn straight from a classic novel, violence and murder on an early Sabbath morning in December 1854, and a never-ending aftermath that arguably has had more energy within it in the 20th and 21st centuries than it had in the 19th these extraordinary elements of a grand narrative will forever stimulate the Australian imagination. Eureka: Australias Greatest Story is certain to stoke the fires. The editors of this book boldly proclaim that Eureka is Australia's 'greatest story', and they have gathered together some of our country's finest historians to prosecute the case.

Elections Matter (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Monash University Publishing, Clayton, VIC, 2018
ISBN 10: 1925523152 ISBN 13: 9781925523157
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ten Federal Elections That Shaped Australia is an exciting non-fiction work that explores key political contests in Australian history. Far from a Tweedledum and Tweedledee scenario where voting makes little difference, democratic elections have shaped Australia in a number of ways. This work highlights ten crucial moments where the election outcome significantly formed Australia: culturally, politically or economically. It looks at prime ministers and policies that never were and examines how the democratic process could have produced a different country. Noted political experts will produce ten chapters with a common theme and key questions. Two additional chapters explore the impact of Australias diverse voting systems and the influence of social media on elections. The result will be an engaging look at Australias political system, written by talented academics but catering to a broad audience interested in politics and history. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Novel Politics
Language: English
Published by Melbourne University Press, AU, 2020
ISBN 10: 0522875971 ISBN 13: 9780522875973
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Percy Bysshe Shelley once described poets as the 'unacknowledged legislators of the world'. If this is true, Australian political scientists have shown curiously little interest in the role that literary figures play in the nation's political life. Novel Politics takes the relationship between literature and politics seriously, analysing the work of six writers, each the author of a classic text about Australian society. These authors bridge the history of local writing, from pre-Federation colonial Australia (Catherine Spence, Rosa Praed and Catherine Martin) to the contemporary moment (Tim Winton, Christos Tsiolkas and Kim Scott). Novel Politics unpicks the many political threads woven into these books, as they document the social world as it exists, while suggesting new possibilities for the nation's future. As political commentators of a particular kind, all six authors offer unique insights into the deeper roots of politics in Australia, beyond the theatre of parliament and out into the wider social world, as imagined by its dreamers and criticised by its most incisive discontents.
