DOWNLOAD EBOOKHélène Seydoux establece brillantemente cómo en la ópera, más que en otras formas artísticas –literatura, teatro o cine–, las mujeres reciben el máximo privilegio al otorgar a las cantantes el mayor espacio lírico. Seydoux analiza las grandes óperas de los grandes compositores y trata de buscar un modelo emblemático femenino que sirva como referente común en el ámbito del bel canto, mientras trata de buscar paralelismos con la época, la sociedad, el momento en el que las óperas fueron creadas intentando establecer hasta que punto estas son reflejo de esas condiciones. Porque la ópera también es una interpretación del mundo. La autora, se aleja de la tesis de la musicología y ayuda al lector a descubrir (o a redescubrir) los placeres de la tragedia lírica, la comedia bufa o el drama jocular.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis unique collection explores the complex issue of vigilantism, how it is represented in popular culture, and what is its impact on behavior and the implications for the rule of law. The book is a transnational investigation across a range of eleven different jurisdictions, including accounts of the Anglophone world (Australia, Britain, Canada, and the United States), European experiences (Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland, and Portugal), and South American jurisdictions (Argentina and Brazil). The essays, written by prominent international scholars in law, sociology, criminology, and media studies, present data, historical and recent examples of vigilantism; examine the national Laws and jurisprudence; and focus on the broad theme of vigilante justice in popular culture (literature, films, television). Vigilante Justice in Society and Popular Culture sheds light on this topic offering a detailed look beyond the Anglophone world. This collection will enrich the debate by adding the opportunity for comparison which has been largely lacking in scholarly debate. As such, it will appeal not only to scholars of law, sociology, criminology, and media studies, but also to all those who are engaged with these topics alike.
