“…On a réuni en Espagne sous le nom de « Génération de 1898 » un groupe d’écrivains profondément marqués par le désastre qu’a représenté pour le pays la perte de ses dernières colonies, Cuba et les Philippines. Ces hommes sont très différents entre eux, mais ils ont quelques orientations communes : la mise en question radicale de l’Espagne officielle ; une volonté de changement réceptive aux formes de vie des autres nations européennes, sans faire disparaître les caractères propres à leur pays ; la recherche de nouvelles valeurs esthétiques et idéologiques éloignées de tout positivisme simpliste et faisant place au vital et au tragique. …”

“…Callaway Prize in Drama and TheaterFirst Place, Large Not-for-Profit Publisher, Typographic Cover, 2011 Washington Book Publishers Design and Effectiveness AwardsLess than twenty years after asserting global dominance in the Seven Years' War, Britain suffered a devastating defeat when it lost the American colonies. Daniel O'Quinn explores how the theaters and the newspapers worked in concert to mediate the events of the American war for British audiences and how these convergent media attempted to articulate a post-American future for British imperial society.Building on the methodological innovations of his 2005 publication Staging Governance: Theatrical Imperialism in London, 1770-1800, O’Quinn demonstrates how the reconstitution of British imperial subjectivities involved an almost nightly engagement with a rich entertainment culture that necessarily incorporated information circulated in the daily press. …”

“…A manifestation of the extreme perception that emerged amid uncertainty and the challenge to seeing brought on by urban warfare, the street paintings erected by Protestant motorbike-taxi drivers signaled a radical departure from the aniconic tradition of the old colonial church, a desire to be seen and recognized by political authorities from Jakarta to the UN and European Union, an aim to reinstate the Christian look of a city in the face of the country's widespread islamicization, and an opening to a more intimate relationship to the divine through the bringing-into-vision of the Christian god. …”

“…Annotation Nubian studies needs a platform in which the old meets the new, in which archaeological, papyrological, and philological research into Meroitic, Old Nubian, Coptic, Greek, and Arabic sources confront current investigations in modern anthropology and ethnography, Nilo-Saharan linguistics, and critical and theoretical approaches present in post-colonial and African studies. The journal Dotawo: A Journal of Nubian Studies brings these disparate fields together within the same fold, opening a cross-cultural and diachronic field where divergent approaches meet on common soil. …”

“…Although it seeks to reckon with the discipline's colonial history, it is not simply the application of decolonial theory or the search to uncover subaltern narratives in a subject that has special relevance to the privileged and powerful. …”

“…La investigación se adentra en el desconcertante ámbito de los circuitos ideológicos que cohesionan a la sociedad urbana, para comprender la predisposición de sus habitantes a emular formas de vida de las clases acomodadas, activada por la capacidad de persuasión simbólica de la modernidad colonial urbana, a través de la cual la mayoría de sus residentes, lejos de cuestionar el sometimiento al individualismo disuelven las identidades colectivas, para integrarlas a la dinámica metropolitana. …”
