Other title information: a radically different worldview is possible

Annotation: Women and the Gift Economy: A Radically Different Worldview is Possible is an attempt to respond to the need for deep and lasting social change in an epoch of dangerous crisis for all humans, cultures, and the planet. Featuring articles by well-known feminist activists and academics, this book points to ways to re-create the connections, which have been severed, between the gift economy, women, and the economies of Indigenous peoples, and to bring forward the gift paradigm as an approach to liberate us from the worldview of the market that is destroying life on the planet. Shifting to a gift paradigm can give us the radically different worldview which will make another, better, world possible.

Annotation: Diverse essays addressing a variety of subjects, from Renaissance cartography to performance art to rap music, united in their common exploration of material criticism. This recognizes that materialist criticism may embrace techniques borrowed from psychoanalytic, feminist, Marxian, and historicist criticisms. It employs materialist criticism to broaden and strengthen our understanding of what constitutes a 'cultural artifact' and how such artifacts function.

The Matrix of Narrative

Literature Mouton de Gruyter 0899256244 Available

Other title information: Family Systems and Semiotics of Story

Annotation: The study which follows proposes a reconstruction of semiotic theory of narrative in light of certain current accounts – psychoanalytic, Proppian, feminist, deconstructive – of the story-telling process. Starting from classical semiotic assumptions – that fictional narrative constitutes a discursive field rather than simply a collocation of texts –, the discussion isolates relational patterns informing various modellings of the story process, outlines a framework for integrating these into a matrix of combinational possibilities and suggests on that basis some vantage points from which to address a number of still pending issues within narrative studies.
