Under the umbrella of FYCGlobal Career Guidance Company, Student Mentors Yashi Shukla and Anjana Anand brought seven students together through a contest and worked with them over weekly sessions to come up with “The Visage: Unmasked”. “The Visage: Unmasked” is a book co-authored by six teenagers. It is based on the ‘Seven Stages of Grief’ with each author going through one particular stage, and all trying to reach the final stage- acceptance. Because the journey is always more beautiful than the destination, this book is about the girls’ journeys towards acceptance. It talks about the everyday struggles of being a teenager, and various other issues that are a part of every teenager’s life. What started as a hobby for the six girls has now found its way inside the pages of a book, a book that holds a piece of their souls and is a product of everything they’ve been through.

Situated Knowing aims to critically examine performance studies’ ideological and socio-political underpinnings while also challenging the Anglo-centrism of the discipline. This book reworks the concept of situated knowledges put forward over thirty years ago by American biologist and philosopher Donna Haraway in order to challenge the Enlightenment paradigm of objectivity in sciences by emphasising the role of the embodied and partial socio-cultural perspective of the scholar in the production of knowledge. Through carefully selected case studies of contemporary natural, cultural and technological performances, contributors to this volume show that the proposed approach requires new genealogies of traditional concepts, emerges from encounters with contemporary performative arts or contact zones and may potentially go beyond the human in order to include non-human ways of being in the world. It will be of great interest to students and scholars of performance studies, cultural studies, media studies and theatre studies.

Among the many studies on German National Socialism that have appeared in the last forty to fifty years, one aspect has seldom been treated in detail: the cultural representations of Adolf Hitler from the late 1920s to the present. This book focuses on the image of Hitler in literature, photography, historiography, film, philosophy, theatre, and comic books by major artists and scholars such as Ernst Ottwalt, Heinrich Hoffmann, Bertolt Brecht, John Hearfield, Leni Riefenstahl, Charles Chaplin, Theodor W. Adorno, Heiner Muller, and George Tabori.
