| 50 shades of grey free online: Global Manga Casey Brienza, 2016-03-09 Outside Japan, the term ’manga’ usually refers to comics originally published in Japan. Yet nowadays many publications labelled ’manga’ are not translations of Japanese works but rather have been wholly conceived and created elsewhere. These comics, although often derided and dismissed as ’fake manga’, represent an important but understudied global cultural phenomenon which, controversially, may even point to a future of ’Japanese’ comics without Japan. This book takes seriously the political economy and cultural production of this so-called ’global manga’ produced throughout the Americas, Europe, and Asia and explores the conditions under which it arises and flourishes; what counts as ’manga’ and who gets to decide; the implications of global manga for contemporary economies of cultural and creative labour; the ways in which it is shaped by or mixes with local cultural forms and contexts; and, ultimately, what it means for manga to be ’authentically’ Japanese in the first place. Presenting new empirical research on the production of global manga culture from scholars across the humanities and social sciences, as well as first person pieces and historical overviews written by global manga artists and industry insiders, Global Manga will appeal to scholars of cultural and media studies, Japanese studies, and popular and visual culture. |

| 50 shades of grey free online: 50 Shades of Divorce Vineeta Niar, 2025-05-09 The promise of 'I do' often shimmers with a luminous, hopeful glow, a vow whispered against a backdrop of bright, fragrant florals and joyous, uplifting music. But life, in its relentless, often unpredictable unfolding, can dim even the most radiant beginnings. Doors once opened with a shared, eager breath of anticipation can slowly creak shut on rusty, un-oiled hinges, and rooms that once echoed with the warm, harmonious laughter of shared jokes and dreams can fall into a chilling, isolating silence, broken only by the hollow tick-tock of a clock marking time passing separately. Divorce, a word often spoken in hushed, somber tones behind closed hands or erupting in loud, jagged shouts of anger and pain, is rarely a single, stark event. It is a spectrum, a complex tapestry woven from a thousand different threads – some thick and dark with the stain of betrayal, others worn thin and pale with unspoken neglect, some vibrantly colored with sudden, explosive fury, others faded with the grey ash of slow, creeping despair. |

| 50 shades of grey free online: Consumer Culture Theory Eric J. Arnould, Craig J. Thompson, David Crockett, Michelle F. Weinberger, 2023-08-19 *NOW FULLY UPDATED AND EXPANDED WITH SIX NEW CHAPTERS* Over the past forty years, Consumer Culture Theory (CCT) has emerged as a distinctive field of study that synthesizes diverse subjects such as anthropology, cultural studies, marketing, political theory and sociology to provide new insights into consumers’ relationships to the marketplace and the influence of commercial action on culture. This book, edited by leading scholars in CCT, contains contributions by many of its leading researchers, and distills this interdisciplinary field into a concise accessible overview for students and early career researchers. It describes the key themes, concepts and theoretical areas of CCT; explains why they are useful in understanding consumption and marketplace phenomena; and shows how they can be applied to a wide range of research contexts. Drawing on real-world scenarios, reflective tasks and international case studies to help aid theoretical understanding and critical thinking, the text is designed to support a course in CCT, supplement related study, and guide undergraduate and postgraduate students in writing a CCT-related dissertation/thesis. It is the go-to text for anyone who is curious about, new to CCT, or looking for an integrative compendium of CCT research and its implications. Eric J. Arnould is Emeritus Professor of Marketing at the Aalto University Business School, Finland. Craig J. Thompson is the Churchill-Bascom Professor of Marketing at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. David Crockett is Professor of Marketing at the University of Illinois Chicago, USA. Michelle F. Weinberger is Associate Professor at the Medill School of Journalism, Media, Integrated Marketing Communications at Northwestern University, Illinois, USA. |
