The Cultural Life of Capitalism in Yugoslavia
This edited volume explores the cultural life of capitalism during socialist and post-socialist times within the geopolitical context of the former Yugoslavia. Through a variety of cutting edge essays at the intersections of critical cultural studies, material culture, visual culture, neo-Marxist theories and situated critiques of neoliberalism, the volume rethinks the relationship between capitalism and socialism. Rather than treating capitalism and socialism as mutually exclusive systems of political, social and economic order, the volume puts forth the idea that in the context of the former Yugoslavia, they are marked by a mutually intertwined existence not only on the economic level, but also on the level of cultural production and consumption. It argues that culture—although very often treated as secondary in the analyses of either socialism, capitalism or their relationship—has an important role in defining, negotiating, and resisting the social, political and economic values of both systems.
The Great Zoo
A fantastical collection of poems by revolutionary Afro-Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén presented in a Spanish-English bilingual edition. Born in Cuba to parents of African and European ancestry, Nicolás Guillén worked in printing presses and studied law before moving into Havana’s literary scene. A virtuosic maker and breaker of forms, Guillén rose to fame by transforming a popular form of Cuban music into poetry that called attention to the experience of Afro-Cuban people, and he continued to interweave his artistic and political commitments as he traveled the world. Originally published in Spanish in 1967, The Great Zoo is a humorous and biting collection of poems that presents a fantas...

Razprave o sodobni slovenski literaturi
Razprave o sodobni slovenski literaturi, nastale v okviru projekta »Slovenska literatura in družbene spremembe: nacionalna država, demokratizacija in tranzicijska navzkrižja«, prinašajo bodisi panoramske poglede bodisi posamezne analize del sodobnega slovenskega romanopisja, dramatike, esejistike in poezije s poudarkom na najnovejši literaturi, ki je nastajala po letu 1990. V knjigi se zvrstijo raznolika metodološka izhodišča od teorije medkulturnosti, teorije kulturnega spomina, etike reprezentacije do nevrokognitivistično naravnanega literarnega darvinizma, feminističnih pristopov in posthumanistične ekokritike.
Fear of Language
The cutting edge Poetic Series, founded and edited by Keren Cytter and Fiona Bryson, combines poetry, literature and the visual arts as a challenge to traditional forms of narrative. Fear of Language, the third book in the series, takes its title from the work of emerging Slovenian poet Katja Perat, whose provocative verse is featured alongside excerpts from American poet Eileen Myless upcoming memoir, Afterglow, and American poet-professor Judith Goldmans spare poetry. Images collected from the internet by Dutch artist Willem de Rooij showing destroyed and looted cultural heritage sites in Iraq, Mali, Egypt, Syria and Bosnia-Herzegovina, are interspersed throughout the book and featured on the cover of this excellent addition to the series.
ǂThe ǂmasochist
Katja Perat's novel is a serio-comical fictional romp through the Habsburg Empire of the fin de siècle, beginning in 1874 Lemberg (present day Lviv/Lvov in Ukraine), continuing to Vienna, and ending in the Habsburg Adriatic seaport of Trieste in 1912. Along her way, the protagonist, the daughter of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch encounters luminaries of the Empire's cultural elite, including Gustav Klimt and his models Adele Bloch-Bauer and Emilie Flöge, Gustav and Alma Mahler, Sigmund Freud, Theodor Herzl, the Princess von Thurn und Taxis, Rainer Maria Rilke and others, in each case providing the reader with new, seemingly first-hand insights into these real-life individuals' characters and thought, not to mention the protagonist's own long and sometimes tortured personal development and emotional maturation. Its title notwithstanding, The Masochist is a delight and immensely rewarding to read: witty, energetic, erudite, profound, and all of a piece.
