Walking the Line - - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Walking the Line - - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

An insightful and wide-ranging look at one of America’s most popular genres of music, Walking the Line: Country Music Lyricists and American Culture examines how country songwriters engage with their nation’s religion, literature, and politics. Country fans have long encountered the concept of walking the line, from Johnny Cash’s “I Walk the Line” to Waylon Jennings’s “Only Daddy That’ll Walk the Line.” Walking the line requires following strict codes, respecting territories, and, sometimes, recognizing that only the slightest boundary separates conflicting allegiances. However, even as the term acknowledges control, it suggests rebellion, the consideration of what lies on the other side of the line, and perhaps the desire to violate that code. For lyricists, the line presents a moment of expression, an opportunity to relate an idea, image, or emotion. These lines represent boundaries of their kind as well, but as the chapters in this volume indicate, some of the more successful country lyricists have tested and expanded the boundaries as they have challenged musical, social, and political conventions, often reevaluating what “country” means in country music. From Jimmie Rodgers’s redefinitions of democracy, to revisions of Southern Christianity by Hank Williams and Willie Nelson, to feminist retellings by Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton to masculine reconstructions by Merle Haggard and Cindy Walker, to Steve Earle’s reworking of American ideologies, this collection examines how country lyricists walk the line. In weighing the influence of the lyricists’ accomplishments, the contributing authors walk the line in turn, exploring iconic country lyrics that have tested and expanded boundaries, challenged musical, social, and political conventions, and reevaluated what “country” means in country music.

Persuasion On-Line & Communicability - Francisco V Cipolla Ficarra - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

Persuasion On-Line & Communicability - Francisco V Cipolla Ficarra - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

In the era of quality in interactive communications, persuasion is an implicit attribute in the human-computer interaction process and the human-computer interface design. Persuasion avails itself of the new technologies to modify the behaviour of the potential users of the on-line and off-line interactive systems. This book focuses on its presence in the on-line systems aimed at university education. Consequently, a series of techniques and heuristic methods to unveil the persuasion practised on-line for the last eight years in a European university context is presented.

On-line Cognition in Person Perception - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

On-line Cognition in Person Perception - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The contributors to this collection focus on the cognitive processes that take place during the initial acquisition of information about others (on-line processes) rather than later when memory processes begin playing a dominant role (memory-based processes). Utilizing the methods and concepts of social cognition, the book illustrates how the study of on-line cognition can further our understanding of person perception. On-Line Cognition in Person Perception also examines the special cognitive dynamics that are associated with such processes within the domain of social perception.

Point and Line to Plane - - Bog - Lars Muller Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Point and Line to Plane - - Bog - Lars Muller Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Point and Line to Plane can be seen as a continuation of Wassily Kandinsky’s seminal treatise On the Spiritual in Art. Kandinsky’s thesis is that different constellations of point, line and surface have different emotional effects on the viewer. Starting from the point (which represents the most concentrated and minimal graphic form), he understands all painterly forms as being a play of forces and counterforces: of contrasts.

Adelic Line Bundles on Quasi-Projective Varieties - Shou Wu Zhang - Bog - Princeton University Press - Plusbog.dk

Adelic Line Bundles on Quasi-Projective Varieties - Shou Wu Zhang - Bog - Princeton University Press - Plusbog.dk

A comprehensive new theory of adelic line bundles on quasi-projective varieties over finitely generated fields This book introduces a comprehensive theory of adelic line bundles on quasi-projective varieties over finitely generated fields, developed in both geometric and arithmetic contexts. In the geometric setting, adelic line bundles are defined as limits of line bundles on projective compactifications under the boundary topology. In the arithmetic setting, they are defined as limits of Hermitian line bundles on projective arithmetic compactifications, also under the boundary topology. After establishing these foundational definitions, the book uses the theory to explore key concepts such as intersection theory, effective sections, volumes, and positivity of adelic line bundles. It also applies these results to study height functions of algebraic points and prove an equidistribution theorem on quasi-projective varieties. This theory has broad applications in the study of numerical, dynamical, and Diophantine properties of moduli spaces, quasi-projective varieties, and varieties over finitely generated fields.
