Translating the Author-Function: The (Re)Narration of Christa Wolf
No full textNarrative theory continues to offer new perspectives on the intercultural transfer of texts. Embedded in new narratives, the text opens up to new interpretations, resulting in the loss and acquisition of meaning. The writer’s persona or author-function (Foucault 1977) is also renegotiated by cultural transfer, as it is cumulatively and dynamically constructed through readings of an author’s texts and literary or biographical contexts. The translated author-function may differ considerably from the domestic, and may also interact with it as in the case of the East German writer Christa Wolf, whose international author-function has served for contrast (if not conflict) with her reception in the German Democratic Republic and united Germany. This was particularly marked during the 1990s, when revelations about Wolf’s political activity led to censure by the German media and literati. This paper demonstrates how the translation of Wolf’s texts and the construction of her international author-function have renegotiated her position within her domestic literary field
Naomi Wolf: Ethical Leadership for the 21st Century
No full textNaomi R. Wolf (born November 12, 1962) is an American liberal progressive feminist author, journalist, and former political advisor to Al Gore and Bill Clinton.
Via Wolf\u27s first book The Beauty Myth (1991),she became a leading spokeswoman of what has been described as the third wave of the feminist movement. Such leading feminists as Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan praised the work; others, including Camille Paglia and Christina Hoff Sommers, criticized it. Her later books include the bestseller The End of America in 2007 and Vagina: A New Biography. Critics have challenged the quality and veracity of the scholarship in her books, including Outrages (2019). In this case, her serious misreading of court records led to its publication in the U.S. being cancelled.
Her career in journalism began in 1995 and has included topics such as abortion, the Occupy Wall Street movement, Edward Snowden and ISIS. She has written for media outlets such as The Nation, The New Republic, The Guardian and The Huffington Post
In pursuit of the lone wolf terrorist: investigative economics and new horizons for the economic analysis of terrorism
No full textThis book explores new horizons for the economic analysis of terrorism with an innovative combination of economics and offender profiling. The book is aimed at contributing to law enforcement efforts to pre-empt and pursue the lone wolf terrorist. By taking the economic analysis of terrorism back to its core concepts of 'opportunities' and 'choices' and by insisting that all results be both computable and relevant to the investigative process, the author examines lone wolf terrorism from a unique perspective that yields new insights into the nature of the lone wolf terrorist's opportunities and choices to inflict human tragedy. Not content with the task of delineating opportunities and choices, the author shows how the frameworks he has developed may be inverted and deployed in the pursuit of the lone wolf terrorist if efforts to pre-empt the lone wolf terrorist have failed. This book is groundbreaking for both the type of economics analysis it presents and its conscious break with several long-held traditions of terrorism studies. Both academics and law enforcement practitioners will find the author's analysis stimulating, confronting and, above all, applicable to the investigative processes designed to pre-empt or pursue a single violent offender who aims to etch a graphic biography of violence into the public consciousness

There's a Wolf at the Door: Five Classic Tales
No full textThis is one of the larger books in format in the collection: 11¼ x over 14 high. The book includes five stories: The Three Little Pigs; BW; Little Red Riding Hood; WSC; and The Wolf and the Seven Little Goslings. The second and fourth seem to me to be fables. Each story is told in comic book fashion: about ten panels with spoken balloons are arranged in strips across each page. Both artist and storymaker have a delightful time telling and refashioning the tales. In the best comic tradition, delightful asides creep into various panels. In BW, there actually is a wolf there the first time that Barry cries Wolf! but he does not know it. Throughout the story, the sheep make hilarious comments about Barry and his behavior. At Barry's second attempt on the first day, one of the townsfolk says to others Nice day for being fooled, don't you agree? The sheep defend themselves successfully, and the wolf takes off into the next story. Ronda in Little Red Riding Hood is in love with red, clothes, and herself. In WSC, the sheep again defend themselves quite handily. A thoroughly enjoyable romp through five traditional stories updated for fun!This is a hardbound book (hard cover)First printingRetold by Zoë B. Alle
