Women’s Economic Thought in the Romantic Age
This book examines the writings of seven English women economists from the period 1735–1811. It reveals that contrary to what standard accounts of the history of economic thought suggest, eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century women intellectuals were undertaking incisive and gender-sensitive analyses of the economy. Women’s Economic Thought in the Romantic Age argues that established notions of what constitutes economic enquiry, topics, and genres of writing have for centuries marginalised the perspectives and experiences of women and obscured the knowledge they recorded in novels, memoirs, or pamphlets. This has led to an underrepresentation of women in the canon of economic theory. ...
Religiöse Helden
Superheld*innen sind in der Krise: Gut und Böse, Richtig und Falsch sind nach starken sozialen und politischen Umbrüchen längst nicht mehr klar und eindeutig. Für das Genre ein eklatantes Problem. Religion und Glaube könnten hier Orientierung bieten, verlieren aber – so der gängige Vorwurf – ihrerseits immer stärker an Bedeutung in einer säkularen Welt. Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes bieten einen ersten Zugang zu diesem Phänomen und kommen zu dem erstaunlichen Befund, dass religiöse Motivik dagegen ungebrochene Hochkonjunktur in der superheroischen Popkultur feiert. Figuren, Themen, Ikonographie, Symbole: Das religiöse Spielfeld des Superheroismus ist mannigfaltig.

Cyborgs, Santa Claus, and Satan
Since the first SF film produced for television--1968's Shadow on the Land--nearly 600 films initially released to television have had science fiction, fantasy, or horror themes. Featuring superheroes, monsters, time travel, magic, and other elements of their big screen counterparts, these films range from the phenomenal to the forgettable, from low-budget two-hour films to blockbuster mini-series. Some, like The Ewok Adventure, were based on theatrical releases, while others, like Babylon 5, developed into very popular series. Information on all such American releases from 1968 through 1998 is collected here. Alphabetically arranged entries include cast and credits, a plot synopsis, qualitative commentary, and notes of interest on aspects of the film. Appendices provide a list of other films that include some science fiction, horror, or fantasy elements; a film chronology; and a guide to alternate titles.
