    Includes bibliographical references and index."In Punctuations Michael J. Shapiro examines how punctuation--conceived not as a series of marks but as a metaphor for the ways in which artists engage with intelligibility--opens pathways for thinking through the possibilities for oppositional politics. Drawing on Theodor Adorno, Alain Robbe-Grillet, and Roland Barthes, Shapiro demonstrates how punctuation's capacity to create unexpected rhythmic pacing makes it an ideal tool for writers, musicians, filmmakers, and artists to challenge structures of power. In works ranging from film scores and jazz compositions to literature, architecture, and photography, Shapiro shows how the use of punctuation reveals the contestability of dominant narratives in ways that prompt readers, viewers, and listeners to reflect on their acceptance of those narratives. Such uses of punctuation, he theorizes, offer models for disrupting structures of authority, thereby fostering the creation of alternative communities of sense from which to base political mobilization"--How 'popular' music thinks the political -- Urban punctuations: symphonic and dialectic -- Architectural punctuations: the politics of 'event spaces' -- Image punctuations: from the photographic to the cinematic -- Holocaust punctuations: Handke, Kertész, and Sebald.1 online resource (213 pages

    The Sense of Grammar

    No full text
    With The Sense of Grammar, Peircean studies take a giant step forward, moving from a preoccupation with textual exegesis into the battleground of linguistic analysis. Working along the lines suggested by Peirce's theory of signs, as interpreted within the context of the philosopher's entire oeuvre, Michael Shapiro proposes a major reorientation of linguistic theory and a shift in the ultimate goals of the study of language structure. Part One provides a theoretical dissection of Peirce's semeiotic and evaluates its importance to structural linguistics. In it Shapiro grapples with the main differences between the theory of signs as Peirce held it before and after 1906. He then applies Peirce's semeiotic to the development of a new theory of grammar, which he tests in Part Two. Drawing examples primarily from the Russian language, Shapiro demonstrates how Peircean semeiotics engages the actual problems of linguistic structure subtended by real data and resolves them in the areas of phonology, morphophonemics, and morphology and semantics

    Detail, cupola on variant of model "Jonquille" (1425 sq. ft.); The house was designed for Edna Root Shapiro, a San Francisco heiress and art collector. It has 3 bedrooms and 3.25 bathrooms. The original exterior of the house was not painted. The beams, gates and all wood details were left natural. The slubstone (cut stone cladding) walls were also left a natural gray. The "grand atrium" is actually a walled garden with the massive pergola-like roof extending over it. There are slots cut into this for sun for the plantings
