简介：Reputation management is the most important theme in corporate and organizational communication today. Leading corporate communicators and educators John Doorley and Helio Fred Garcia argue that most CEOs don't actually pay much heed to reputation and this is to their peril. Heads of government and non-profit agencies don't do much better managing the reputation asset, as recent scandals demonstrate. Yet, when leaders get reputation right over the long term, they follow certain principles, like the ones described here for the first time by Joe Hardy, one of the world's most successful builders.This book is a how-to guide for professionals and students in public relations and corporate communication, as well as for CEOs and other leaders. It rests on the premise that reputation can be measured, monitored, and managed. Organized by corporate communication units (media relations, employee communication, government relations, and investor relations, for example), the book provides a field-tested guide to corporate reputation problems such as leaked memos, unfair treatment by the press, and negative rumors--and it is this rare book that focuses on practical solutions. Each chapter is fleshed out with real-world experience by the authors and their 25 contributors, including Lynn Appelbaum, The City College of New York; Gail Belmuth, International Flavors & Fragrances, Inc.; Kenneth Berkowitz, Healthcare Marketing and Communications Council; Roberta Bowman, Duke Energy Carolinas (formerly, Duke Power); Sandra Boyette, Wake Forest University; Andrea Coville and Ray Thomas, Brodeur; Lou Capozzi,Publicis; Steve Doyal, Hallmark; Anthony Ewing, Logos Consulting Group; Ed Ingle, Microsoft Corporation; James Lukaszewski, The Lukaszewski Group; Tim McMahon, McMahon Marketing; and Judy Voss, the Public Relations Society of America.

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 "Shimpach's canny book shows how these uncertain times reveal a cultural and corporate desire-in on-screen heroies and industrial antics alike-to `save' television... even as it transforms before our very eyes." John Hartley, author of Television Truths (Wiley-Blackwell) "With trenchant insight and far-reaching interpretation, Shawn Shimpach confronts transformations in the media landscape that are dramatically changing the fundamental experience of TV today. Most impressively, he demonstrates richly productive ways to combine industry analysis with close reading of individual programs in order to account for continuities and breaks in what television now means in our everyday life. This is destined to be a major work in television studies." Dana Polan, Cinema Studies, New York University, author of The Sopranos and Julia Child's the French Chef "Shimpach has written a smart and savvy book that connects the new industrial configurations of American television to the texts it produces. He examines aesthetics, narrative, and genre while accounting for the ideological workings of gender and incorporating an international perspective." Roberta Pearson, University of Nottingham "Shimpach eloquently describes the impact of new global business forces in the TV industry through an insightful examination of four different kinds of heroes. His analysis reveals new ways to think about what stories TV can tell about heroism in the 2000s." Sharon Ross, Columbia College Chicago From a few national broadcasters to hundreds of digital channels and from a box in the living room to screens of every Size, everywhere, television looks and feels very different now. Today television programming must "translate" to different nations, cultures, broadcast systems; different formats, distribution outlets, and screen sizes, while simultaneously attracting and sustaining audience interest over the time it takes to travel through these spaces. Blending institutional and textual analyses, Television in Transition examines the return to action narratives with individual (super) heroes intended to navigate this new, international, multi-channel universe. Case studies of Highlander: The Series, Smallville, 24, and Doctor Who call up new questions of political, economic and cultural citizenship, crossing borders, splitting affinities, and pushing boundaries through reinterpretations of long-time televisual represenatational themes (white masculinity, heroism, nation, genre, etc.) within this era of transformation and perceived industry crisis. Television in Transition examines the narrative and institutional paradigms of textual afterlife to offer a highly original explanation of how innovation takes place within the television industry's management of predictability, risk, and familirity.   Publisher Summary 2 Combining an exciting methodology alongside high-interest case studies,聽Television in Transition聽offers students of television a guide to a medium that has weathered the challenges of first-run syndication, a multi-channel universe, netlets, major media conglomerates, deregulation, and globalization--all in the space of twenty years. Examines a return in television programming to action narratives with individual (super) heroes intended to navigate this new, international, multi-channel universeExplores how television programming "translates" to new spatial geographies: different nations, cultures, broadcast systems; and different formats, distribution outlets, and screen sizesLooks at the value of a program's "afterlife," the continued circulation, repackaging and repurposing of programming beyond its initial iterationBlends institutional and textual analyses in case studies聽of聽Highlander: The Series, Smallville, 24,and Doctor Who

简介：It begins with nothing more frightening than a nursery rhyme; yet in Stephen King's hands it becomes an unforgettable parable of dread, a threat from an unimaginable darkness that drags the practical inhabitants of a New England village into a hell worse than their own most horrible nightmares...and yours. It begins with a writer named Roberta Anderson, looking for firewood in the forest that stretches behind her house. Bobbi stumbles over three inches of metal, which unusually heavy spring runoff has left sticking out of the soil. A logger's beer can, she thinks at first, but "the metal was as solid as mother-rock." It begins with Bobbi's discovery of the ship in the earth, a ship buried for millions of years, but still vibrating faintly, still humming with some sort of life...faint...weak...but still better left alone. Bobbi then begins to dig--tentatively at first, then compulsively--and is joined by her old friend (and onetime lover), Jim Gardener. Aided by weirdly advanced technology, their excavation proceeds apace. And as they uncover more and more of an artifact both familiar and so unbelievable it is almost beyond comprehension, the inhabitants of Haven start to change. There is the new hot-water heater in Bobbi's basement--a hot-water heater that apparently runs on flashlight batteries. The vengeful housewife who learns of her husband's affair...from a picture of Jesus on top of her TV, a picture that begins to talk. Not to mention the ten-year-old magician who makes his little brother disappear...for real. The townspeople of Haven are "becoming" --being welded into one organic, homicidal, and fearsomely brilliant entity in fatal thrall to the Tommyknockers.

简介： With essays by Marco Bussagli, Cecilia Sica, and Roberta Bernabei Many have written about the nature and iconic function of angels, so much so that angels are among the most resonant figures representing religious culture throughout the world. These luminous and ethereal creatures are so prevalent in the collective imagination that artists of every period have drawn, painted, and sculpted them. Between God and Man: Angels in Italian Artpresents works by seminal Italian artists--including Titian, Filippo Lippi, Tiepolo, Botticini, and Solimena--of and about angels. This catalog documents an exhibition for which the Mississippi Museum of Art serves as the sole venue. The exhibition draws from significant collections in Italy, including the national museums of Rome, Ravenna, and Venice. More than 130 works of art in the exhibition are reproduced in full color, amply displaying how the angel figure has been depicted in various mediums and art periods, from the third century B.C. to the twenty-first century. The book includes essays by leading Italian art historians and scholars and a preface from Vatican Museums Director Francesco Buranelli. Between God and Manprovides an overview of how one of the world's most artistically revered cultures has represented a central figure in religious imagery. Francesco Buranelli is director of Vatican Museums and the curator of the exhibition Between God and Man: Angels in Italian Art. Robin C. Dietrick is curator of exhibitions at the Mississippi Museum of Art, Jackson, where she organizes and designs exhibitions.

简介：In Egypt, Maine, it's pretty hard to turn over a log without unearthing a Bean; they're just everywhere. For the Beans have always been there. Almost everybody's related to them, some more closely than you might wish. It's birth and copulation and death--and then more of the same. — Earlene Pomerleau isn't a Bean; no, probably not, but she's squa...   more 籸e in the middle of the swarming hive. There's Cousin Rubic, a boozer and brawler, who can't quite keep himself out of jail; Aunt Roberta, who is in a perpetual state of pregnancy and encirclement by as nasty a litter of no-neck monsters as you have run across since Cat on a Hot Tin Roof; and Beal, who is sweet and gentle but violent in defeat. In this, her first full-length work, Carolyn Chute writes of poverty from ground level. The poverty is grinding, its victims wrestling manically for survival. If Chute's method is primitive, it could not be otherwise for she is dealing with primitive matters. If she laughs, she laughs with her people for she shares their lot. The Beans may recall Faulkner's Snopes family, and there's a pinch of Erskine Caldwell here, too. But Carolyn Chute owes no real debts. She is her own woman.   ?less

简介：Toni Morrison has been described by the New York Times as "the closest thing the country has to a national writer." Her third novel, Song of Solomon, earned her the National Book Critics Circle and the American Academy and Instituteof Arts and Letters awards, and was the first novel written by an African-American writer to be selected for the Book-of-the-Month club since Richard Wright's Native Son. With six published novels, two anthologies, a volume of literary criticism, plays, and other published works behind her, she is one of the most celebrated American writers of her time. Henry Louis Gates, Jr., writes in the preface of Toni Morrison: Critical Perspectives Past and Present, coedited with K. A. Appiah, that "Morrison's greatest capacities as a writer are her ability to create a denselylyrical narrative texture that is instantly recognizable as her own, and to make of the particularity of the African-American 'experience' the basis for a representation of humanity tout court." These critical perspectives are reviews from the popular press, essays - by such noted scholars and authors as Houston A. Baker, Jr., author of Workings of the Spirits, and Roberta Rubenstein, author of Boundaries of the Self -and interviews with Morrison that present her own perspective. This unique and revealing collection, which also includes a chronology of her life and career, offers insight and information useful to academic and lay readers alike. The critical essays explain how Morrison's work is influenced by writers such as Gabriel Garcia Marquez, William Faulkner, and James Baldwin; by Biblical scripture; and by Black music and speech rituals. They examine why Morrison's writing is "at once difficult and popular," says Gates. When Sara Blackburn reviewed Morrison's first novel, The Bluest Eye, for the New York Times, she wrote that the novelist "reaped the benefits of a growing middle-class women's movement that was just beginning to acknowledge the reality of its black and poorsisters. As a result, her novel probably attracted more attention than it otherwise might have in the publishing industry and reviewers." The factors of her success are debatable, but most agree that her place in the pantheon of the world's greatest literary figures is guaranteed.

简介：This book offers educational experiences, including reflections and the resulting essays, from the Roberta Kevelson Seminar on Law and Semiotics held during 2008 鈥?2011 at Penn State University鈥檚 Dickinson School of Law.聽 The texts address educational aspects of law that require attention and that also are issues in traditional jurisprudence and legal theory.聽 The book introduces education in legal semiotics as it evolves in a legal curriculum. Specific semiotic concepts, such as 鈥渟ign鈥? 鈥渟ymbol鈥?or 鈥渓egal language,鈥?demonstrate how a lawyer鈥檚 professionally important tasks of name-giving and meaning-giving are seldom completely understood by lawyers or laypeople.聽 These concepts require analyses of considerable depth to understand the expressiveness of these legal names and meanings, and to understand how lawyers can 鈥渟ay the law,鈥?or urge such a saying correctly and effectively in the context of a natural language that is understandable to all of us.聽 The book brings together the structure of the Seminar, its foundational philosophical problems, the specifics of legal history, and the semiotics of the legal system with specific themes such as gender, family law, and business law.
