The Adelphi Players - Cecil Davies - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Adelphi Players - Cecil Davies - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cecil Davies'' The Adelphi Players: The Theatre of Persons represents a uniquely interesting contribution to our understanding of touring British theatre in the mid-twentieth-century, post-war period. This book will interest everyone - whether student, academic or general reader - who wants to know more about issues concerning the recent history of British theatre. In their values and aims, the Adelphi Players pre-empted many of the post-war developments that we associate with the non-commercial, fringe and community theatre movement. In Richard Heron Ward founder of the Adelphi-Players, we encounter a dramatist, novelist, essayist and poet who has been unusually neglected in terms of our appreciation of the English literature of the broad left in the 1930s, `40s and `50s. The Adelphi Players has been edited by Peter Billingham, who has also provided an introduction placing Ward and the Adelphi players in the wider social, cultural and ideological context.

Women Players in England, 1500–1660 - Peter Parolin - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Women Players in England, 1500–1660 - Peter Parolin - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Offering evidence of women''s extensive contributions to the theatrical landscape, this volume sharply challenges the assumption that the stage was ''all male'' in early modern England. The editors and contributors argue that the pervasiveness of female performance affected cultural production, even on the professional London stages that used men and boys for women''s parts. English spectators saw women players in professional and amateur contexts, in elite and popular settings, at home and abroad. Women acted in scripted and improvised roles, performed in local festive drama, and took part in dancing, singing, and masquing. English travelers saw professional actresses on the continent and Italian and French actresses visited England. Essays in this volume explore: the impact of women players outside London; the relationship between women''s performance on the continent and in England; working women''s participation in a performative culture of commerce; the importance of the visual record; the use of theatrical techniques by queens and aristocrats for political ends; and the role of female performance on the imitation of femininity. In short, Women Players in England 1500-1660 shows that women were dynamic cultural players in the early modern world.

Physiological and Functional Assessment of Professional Football Players - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Physiological and Functional Assessment of Professional Football Players - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Physiological and Functional Assessment of Professional Football Players presents a science-based approach to enhance athletes'' performance and prevent muscle injuries. Professional football players undergo a rigorous competitive season with frequent and numerous competitions, exposing them to significant stress that can detrimentally affect their performance and lead to serious injuries in extreme cases. In order to avert such negative outcomes, coaches and team staff must formulate preventive training programs tailored to the unique characteristics and needs of each player. The execution of these individualized training programs necessitates a comprehensive assessment of players'' health status, evaluation of their functional and fitness performance, analysis of their muscular structure, identification of muscle imbalances or movement dysfunctions, and detection of potential injury risk factors. Furthermore, it is imperative to monitor the weekly training and competition load using appropriate indicators of external and internal load, adjusting workloads accordingly. In addition, recovery-training programs must be meticulously designed for each injured player. This process involves isolating the factors causing the injury and assessing the injury''s severity in the initial stage. Subsequently, recovery-training programs must be thoughtfully planned, incorporating various assessment tools and procedures to verify the restoration of players'' functional ability and inform decisions about the return to play. ''Physiological and Functional Assessment of Professional Football Players'' delves into the utilization of appropriate testing protocols and emphasizes that understanding the reported data is crucial for the success of professional football training. This groundbreaking book is essential reading for researchers and practitioners in the fields of soccer, sports science, recovery, data and performance analysis, and soccer coaching.

The Baseball Glove - David Jenemann - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Baseball Glove - David Jenemann - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The baseball glove is a ubiquitous item, a crucial piece of equipment in the game of baseball, and it offers the opportunity to examine the production of material culture and social practice at numerous levels. Where and how is a glove made, and how does its manufacture square with the narratives surrounding its place in American cultural life? What are the myths, superstitions, and beliefs surrounding its acquisition, care, use, and significance? How does a glove function as the center of a web of cultural practices that illustrate how individuals relate to a consumer good as a symbol of memory, personal narrative, and national identity? How do the manufacturers of baseball gloves draw upon, promote, and in some sense create these practices? How do these practices and meanings change in other national and cultural contexts? The Baseball Glove offers students the opportunity to examine these questions in an engagingly written and illustrated book that promotes hands-on interaction with a quintessential item of material culture. At the same time, the book gives students the space for critical self-reflection about the place of material goods like sporting equipment in their lives, and it provides the chance to learn different methodological approaches to studying everyday objects.

The Small Players of the Great Game - Pirouz Mojtahed Zadeh - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Small Players of the Great Game - Pirouz Mojtahed Zadeh - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book deals with the 19th century Anglo-Russian Great Game played out on the territorial chessboard of eastern and north-eastern parts of the waning Persian empire. The Great Game itself has been written about extensively, but never from a Persian angle and from the point of view of the local players in that game. Looking at the territorial consequences of the Great Game for the local players is a unique approach, which deserves a special place in the studies of history, geography, politics and geopolitics of the age of modernity.

Baseball's Dynasties and the Players Who Built Them - Jonathan Weeks - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Baseball's Dynasties and the Players Who Built Them - Jonathan Weeks - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Baseball has had its fair share of one-and-out champions, but few clubs have dominated the sport for any great length of time. Given the level of competition and the expansive length of the season, it is a remarkable accomplishment for a team to make multiple World Series appearances in a short timespan. From the Baltimore Orioles of the 1800s who would go to any length to win—including physically accosting opponents—to the 1934 Cardinals known as the “Gashouse Gang” for their rough tactics and determination, and on to George Steinbrenner’s dominant Yankees of the late twentieth century, baseball’s greatest teams somehow found a way to win year after year. Spanning three centuries of the game, Baseball’s Dynasties and the Players Who Built Them examines twenty-two of baseball’s most iconic teams. Each chapter not only chronicles the club’s era of supremacy, but also provides an in-depth look at the players who helped make their teams great. Nearly two hundred player profiles are included, featuring such well-known stars as Joe DiMaggio, Jackie Robinson, Sandy Koufax, and Pete Rose, as well as players who were perhaps overshadowed by their teammates but were nonetheless vital to their team’s reign, such as Pepper Martin, Allie Reynolds, and George Foster. With a concluding chapter that profiles the clubs that were on the cusp of greatness, Baseball’s Dynasties and the Players Who Built Them is a fascinating survey of what makes some teams dominate year after year while others get only a small taste of glory before falling to the wayside. Written in a lively style with amusing anecdotes and colorful quotes, this comprehensive book will be of interest to all fans and historians of baseball.

Major League Baseball Players of 1916 - Paul Batesel - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

Major League Baseball Players of 1916 - Paul Batesel - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

In 1916, over 500 men played in a major league game. Many of those players'' names are inseparable from baseball--39 are members of the Hall of Fame--while others have only one line in the record books. Some enjoyed highly productive careers after leaving the game; others lacked the temperament, skills or opportunities to find success after baseball. This book is the first to focus on a representative group of major leaguers, the Class of 1916, in seeking answers to the questions Who was the average major leaguer in the late deadball era? What was his background? and What became of him when his playing days ended? Introductory chapters offer background information on the era and discuss the 1916 season; provide information on the players'' ethnic and geographic origins, ages, and average physical sizes; chart player performance; and summarize post-playing careers and mortality statistics for the group. The main body of the work, a biographical dictionary, is arranged alphabetically, and each entry includes career and biographical information, statistics, post-baseball accomplishments and death. Many rare photographs accompany the text.

Martyrs and Players in Early Modern England - David K. Anderson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Martyrs and Players in Early Modern England - David K. Anderson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Focusing on Christopher Marlowe, William Shakespeare, John Webster and John Milton, Martyrs and Players in Early Modern England argues that the English tragedians reflected an unease within the culture to acts of religious violence. David Anderson explores a link between the unstable emotional response of society to religious executions in the Tudor-Stuart period, and the revival of tragic drama as a major cultural form for the first time since classical antiquity. Placing John Foxe at the center of his historical argument, Anderson argues that Foxe’s Book of Martyrs exerted a profound effect on the social conscience of English Protestantism in his own time and for the next century. While scholars have in recent years discussed the impact of Foxe and the martyrs on the period’s literature, this book is the first to examine how these most vivid symbols of Reformation-era violence influenced the makers of tragedy. As the persecuting and the persecuted churches collided over the martyr’s body, Anderson posits, stress fractures ran through the culture and into the playhouse; in their depictions of violence, the early modern tragedians focused on the ethical confrontation between collective power and the individual sufferer. Martyrs and Players in Early Modern England sheds new light on the particular emotional energy of Tudor-Stuart tragedy, and helps explain why the genre reemerged at this time.

Satyajit Ray's The Chess Players and Postcolonial Film Theory - Reena Dube - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Indispensable for students of film studies, in this book Reena Dube explores Satyajit Ray''s films, and The Chess Players in particular, in the context of discourses of labour in colonial and postcolonial conditions.

Her book treats film as part of the larger cultural production of India and provides a historical sense of the cross genre borrowings, traditions and debates that have deeply influenced Indian cinema and its viewers.

Players in the Public Policy Process - H. Bryce - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Players in the Public Policy Process - H. Bryce - Bog - Palgrave Macmillan - Plusbog.dk

Winner of the 2005 Charles Levine Prize for the Best Book in Comparative Policy and Administration. Author Herrington J. Bryce focuses on the nonprofit organization as a social capital asset and agent in all phases of the public policy process - from influencing political parties, platforms, and choice of candidates to the formulation and implementation of public policy including the facilitation of transactions. This book demonstrates the universal utility of the principal-agent paradigm for analyzing nonprofits in foreign or domestic policy, sectarian or faith-based, scientific or social as well as the regulatory (not just participatory) powers of these organizations over market and nonmarket actions as a matter of public, collective policy. Placing the nonprofit in a principal-agent framework, the book emphasizes such topics as sources of conflict in public expectations and organizational performance, the moral hazard and benefits of organizational self-interest, tax exemption as compensation or a reservation price rather than just a subsidy, the role of social service organizations as managers of adverse social risks, and their inherent competitive advantage (even when faith-based) over firms as agents of choice for social service contracts from a strictly business perspective. It also deals with the role of nonprofits in governance such as over common pool resources, the moral hazard of policy, and the probability that the nonprofit could be an agent of distortions. Bryce goes beyond the economics of market failure and adds political, policy and administrative sciences, economic sociology, and the theory of contracts to encapsulate these organizations as agents and essential players in any open and democratic public policy process.

Local Players in Global Games - Jonathan Zeitlin - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Local Players in Global Games - Jonathan Zeitlin - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

What happens when previously autonomous firms from different countries, each with their own identities, routines, and capabilities, come together inside a single multinational corporation? Can a cooperative strategy be established that advances the development of the multinational as a whole, or do mutual misunderstandings and the unintended consequences of strategic interaction among the players lead instead to endemic conflict and disintegration? This book tackles these novel and important questions through an empirical study of the strategic constitution of an ''actually existing'' multinational. It does so by tracing the historical construction of the multinational corporation from the confluence of multiple formerly independent firms and analyzing the interacting web of strategies pursued by different actors within it. The analysis reveals how workers, unionists, subsidiary managers, and corporate executives pursue separate strategic games rooted in their local contexts, whose global outcome contrasts sharply with idealized views of the multinational as an integrated and coordinated organization. By comparing these findings to those of the broader literature, the book proceeds to a theoretical examination of the challenges of managing the multinational, and the difficulties of resolving them through conventional organizational means. The authors propose new procedural solutions aimed at fostering mutual recognition and knowledge exchange within the multinational corporation, and explore how a multinational public may be created to press for the necessary reforms in corporate governance. As the success of such reforms is far from preordained, the book concludes with a series of alternative scenarios that illustrate the many obstacles to a smooth continuation of the globalization process.This is an important and original study of significance for researchers, academics, and advanced students of international business, business strategy, economics, organizational studies, economic sociology, economic geography, and international political economy.

The Theatre of Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players - Sarah Gorman - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Theatre of Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players - Sarah Gorman - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The theatre of Richard Maxwell and the New York City Players has received significant international recognition over the past ten years. The company has received three OBIEs, for House (1999), Drummer Wanted (2002) and Good Samaritans (2005). Maxwell received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2010 and has been commissioned by venues in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, France, Belgium and Ireland. Although his productions generate a plethora of reviews, there is a deficit of material providing a critical and sustained engagement with his work. The aim of this book is to provide a critical survey of Maxwell’s work since 1992, including his early participation in Cook County Theater Department. Touching upon the acting, production and rehearsal processes of NYC Player’s work, and Maxwell''s representations of space, community, race, and gender, this volume provides scholars with an important overview of a key figure in contemporary drama.

Boys Gone Wild - Eric M. Carter - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Boys Gone Wild - Eric M. Carter - Bog - University Press of America - Plusbog.dk

Boys Gone Wild examines why some professional football players participate in deviant, and sometimes illegal, behavior while others do not. According to Carter''s research, nearly one in three professional football players have been charged with serious crimes. Carter gained access into an exclusive group of National Football League players, interviewing and surveying 104 participants. His qualitative data revealed three core themes: deviance, anomie, and social ties. A substantial number of players had prior experience with deviant and illegal behaviors. Many reported problems coping with how drastically their lives changed (i.e., anomie) upon entering the NFL. Moreover, virtually fifty percent reported being unhappy with their life—despite being wealthy and famous. It appeared that some level of anomie was present in a number of these players'' lives; however, players that had strong ties to various social groups appeared less likely to succumb to anomie and deviance. Supporting the qualitative data, the quantitative findings revealed that anomie was one of the significant predictors of law-breaking players. Carter suggests that many of the players were involved in behaviors that could be labeled anomic deviance. Furthermore, the findings supported the primacy of social ties and support in buffering anomie and deviance in the lives of professional football players.
