| pluto tv jag: Mamma som gud Gabriela Melinescu, 2017-05-02 Jag hade fått livet av henne med all dess sårbarhet, all rädsla, all sjukdom och till sist åldrandet – men också döden som börjar redan vid födelsen. Döden tycks vara orsaken till att Gud skapade mödrarna, för bara en mor kan blanda ihop livet och döden. Varje gång ett barn föds, föds också Gud. Och när någon dör, dör också Gud för att födas på nytt genom kärlek var gång en kvinna blir med barn.I romanen Mamma som Gud berättar Gabriela Melinescu om sin barndom och ungdom i Rumänien och tre mödrar som präglat henne – mamman, farmodern och mormodern, vars lantliga silkesmaskodling blir till en bild för mognad och förvandling. Med utgångspunkt i exilens Sverige blir hennes roman till ett levande minnesarbete om litteratur, kärlek och frihet. |
| pluto tv jag: The Last Ship William Brinkley, 2013-11-27 Hailed as “an extraordinary novel of men at war” (The Washington Post) this is the book that inspired the TNT television series starring Eric Dane, Rhona Mitra, Adam Baldwin and Michael Bay as Executive Producer. The unimaginable has happened. The world has been plunged into all-out nuclear war. Sailing near the Arctic Circle, the U.S.S. Nathan James is relatively unscathed, but the future is grim and Captain Thomas is facing mutiny from the tattered remnants of his crew. With civilization in ruins, he urges those that remain—one-hundred-and-fifty-two men and twenty-six women—to pull together in search of land. Once they reach safety, however, the men and women on board realize that they are earth’s last remaining survivors—and they’ve all been exposed to radiation. When none of the women seems able to conceive, fear sets in. Will this be the end of humankind? |
| pluto tv jag: Deer Creek Drive Beverly Lowry, 2023-08-01 The stunning true story of a murder that rocked the Mississippi Delta and forever shaped one author’s life and perception of home. “Mix together a bloody murder in a privileged white family, a false accusation against a Black man, a suspicious town, a sensational trial with colorful lawyers, and a punishment that didn’t fit the crime, and you have the best of southern gothic fiction. But the very best part is that the story is true.” —John Grisham In 1948, in the most stubbornly Dixiefied corner of the Jim Crow south, society matron Idella Thompson was viciously murdered in her own home: stabbed at least 150 times and left facedown in one of the bathrooms. Her daughter, Ruth Dickins, was the only other person in the house. She told authorities a Black man she didn’t recognize had fled the scene, but no evidence of the man's presence was uncovered. When Dickins herself was convicted and sentenced to life in prison, the community exploded. Petitions pleading for her release were drafted, signed, and circulated, and after only six years, the governor of Mississippi granted Ruth Dickins an indefinite suspension of her sentence and she was set free. In Deer Creek Drive, Beverly Lowry—who was ten at the time of the murder and lived mere miles from the Thompsons’ home—tells a story of white privilege that still has ramifications today, and reflects on the brutal crime, its aftermath, and the ways it clarified her own upbringing in Mississippi. |
| pluto tv jag: The Stone Roses Simon Spence, 2013-04-02 The Stone Roses captures the magic—and chaos—behind the UK band's rise, fall, and recent resurrection. The iconic Brit pop band The Stone Roses became an overnight sensation when their 1989 eponymous album went double platinum. It was a recording that is still often listed as one of the best albums ever made. Its chiming guitar riffs, anthemic melodies, and Smiths-like pop sensibility elevated The Stone Roses to a cult-like status in the UK and put them on the map in the U.S. But theirs is a story of unfulfilled success: their star imploded as their sophomore effort took years to complete and the band broke up acrimoniously in 1996. Sixteen years later, they reunited and have been playing sold out gigs, thrilling fans around the globe, and working on new material. In 2013, they nabbed the coveted headline spot at the Coachella Festival. With one hundred interviews of key figures, forty rare photographs, and exclusive insider material including how they created their music, The Stone Roses charts the band's rise from the backwaters of Manchester to becoming the stars of the Madchester scene to their successful comeback years later. Going beyond the myths to depict a band that defined Brit pop, Simon Spence illustrates their incandescent talent and jaw-dropping success while contextualizing them in the 90s music scene. This is the definitive story of The Stone Roses. |

Få föddes som flyktingar. Ingen önskar att dö som flykting. Trots det så talar vi om flyktingar som om de vore samma sak som att vara dansk, svensk eller norsk. Människor på flykt har tvingats bryta med allt men ändå när de drömmar och hopp om framtiden. De kastar sig huvudstupa från hopptornets 10-meters avsats och hoppas att det finns vatten i bassängen. Tyngdlagen kan man dö av. Därför blir själva fallet en konstart. Detta är inte en bok om flyktingar, men om människor som kastar sig huvudstupa, om människor på väg. |

Om att våga sätta ner foten när det har gått för långt. Och på alla tänkbara och icke tänkbara sätt verka för fred. Två systrar och ett gäng kvinnor, 70 plus, har fått nog av vapenskrammel och galenskaper från världens ledare. Med finess och påhittighet slår de till mot vapenindustrin på de mest dråpliga sätt. Från basen på den skånska kursgården drar de upp riktlinjerna för sitt motstånd och tränar sig flitigt i civil olydnad. Deras trevliga och driftiga grannar försörjer sig på äppelodling, must- och champagnetillverkning. Säger de. Och de låter sig gärna bjudas på mat och fika. Tills det en dag uppenbaras att skenet bedrar – i källaren lagerför de helt andra produkter, nämligen vapen och drönare. Och i själva verket gör grannarna lönande affärer med militärer och krigförande länder. Kvinnorna är smarta nog att inse att de behöver hjälp av yngre förmågor för att rå på dessa samvetslösa krigshetsare. De anlitar en femtonårig grabb som är bra på att hacka sig in i större datasystem. Och konsekvenserna blir minst sagt dramatiska. |

| pluto tv jag: Television Culture John Fiske, 2010-10-18 This revised edition of a now classic text includes a new introduction by Henry Jenkins, explaining ‘Why Fiske Still Matters’ for today’s students, followed by a discussion between former Fiske students Ron Becker, Aniko Bodroghkozy, Steve Classen, Elana Levine, Jason Mittell, Greg Smith and Pam Wilson on ‘John Fiske and Television Culture’. Both underline the continuing relevance of this foundational text in the study of contemporary media and popular culture. Television is unique in its ability to produce so much pleasure and so many meanings for such a wide variety of people. In this book, John Fiske looks at television’s role as an agent of popular culture, and goes on to consider the relationship between this cultural dimension and television’s status as a commodity of the cultural industries that are deeply inscribed with capitalism. He makes use of detailed textual analysis and audience studies to show how television is absorbed into social experience, and thus made into popular culture. Audiences, Fiske argues, are productive, discriminating, and televisually literate. Television Culture provides a comprehensive introduction for students to an integral topic on all communication and media studies courses. |

Tack för det, TV4 ...” Det är friidrotts-VM i Paris och sportjournalisten Lasse Anrell sitter bredvid Carolina Klüft under presskonferensen i Eiffeltornet. Han har följt hennes idrottskarriär under flera år och vet varför hon är så speciell. Mitt under konferensen ramlar Anrell av sin stol, poff, och han blir utskrattad av hela den samlade världspressen. Utöver det spektaklet får vi även läsa om Lasse Anrells vidlyftiga liv som farfar, varför han blev utskälld på stora operan i London, varför medelålders kvinnor nyper honom i rumpan och unga flickor vill att han ska skriva autograf på brösten. Vi får också insikt i varför han hatar Dr Phil och hur han lyckades hamna mitt i ett bankrån. Det är med andra ord en helt vanlig kåserisamling av Lasse Anrell. Lasse Anrell, född 1953 i Stockholm, är en svensk författare och journalist. Han har framför allt gjort sig känd som sportjournalist och sportkrönikör och var verksam på Aftonbladet mellan 1979-1992 och mellan 1995-2012. Lasse Anrell har också skrivit kåserier och flera barnböcker. |

| pluto tv jag: Making Sense of Pakistan Farzana Shaikh, 2018-10-15 Pakistan's transformation from supposed model of Muslim enlightenment to a state now threatened by an Islamist takeover has been remarkable. Many account for the change by pointing to Pakistan's controversial partnership with the United States since 9/11; others see it as a consequence of Pakistan's long history of authoritarian rule, which has marginalized liberal opinion and allowed the rise of a religious right. Farzana Shaikh argues the country's decline is rooted primarily in uncertainty about the meaning of Pakistan and the significance of 'being Pakistani'. This has pre-empted a consensus on the role of Islam in the public sphere and encouraged the spread of political Islam. It has also widened the gap between personal piety and public morality, corrupting the country's economic foundations and tearing apart its social fabric. More ominously still, it has given rise to a new and dangerous symbiosis between the country's powerful armed forces and Muslim extremists. Shaikh demonstrates how the ideology that constrained Indo-Muslim politics in the years leading to Partition in 1947 has left its mark, skillfully deploying insights from history to better understand Pakistan's troubled present. |

The scholarly field of Romany studies is trapped by the history of Roma in a unique and peculiar position in Europe. The investigation of Roma was in the past marginal to academic concerns because most of its practitioners were amateur folklorists interested in treating the Roma as paragons of a lost world and not as citizens of modern nation-states. Today the field is hemmed in by two different power fields: the emotionally understandable, though intellectually debilitating, concern to turn the plight of the Roma into a matter of 'human rights' and the difficulty that academics experience in dealing with people who are not a people in the sense that nation states constitute and make peoples. |

| pluto tv jag: Critical Studies of Gender Equalities Eva Magnusson, Malin Rönnblom, Harriet Silius, 2008 There is an increasing awareness that gender equality is not something that just is in unproblematic and natural ways, but that it may be understood and packaged in several ways, with quite different consequences. It therefore makes good sense to ask, with the authors in this book, how gender equality is understood and practised in the Nordic countries, with their avowedly good record on gender equality measures. It makes especially good sense to look closely at the consequences and difficulties that arise out of the many-faceted meanings attached to gender and equality in politics and policies, as well as in daily life. In this book, eleven Nordic scholars offer critical analyses of current dislocations, dilemmas and contradictions in the field of Nordic gender equality. They have studied issues to do with constructing state and nation, regulating political practices and producing gendered subjectivities. The authors are affiliated with universities in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden and united in seeing the need for a critical scholarly stance on Nordic gender equality policies and practices. |

| pluto tv jag: Wound Building Danny Hayward, 2021 Wound Building is a volume of essays, with digressions, on one group of contemporary poets active in a self-organizing political poetry scene in the UK, most of whom have little to no audience outside of the little magazines that they publish and the reading series they put on. The book is a front-line report on the rapid development of this poetry in the period between 2015 and 2020, with a particular focus on the relationship of poetry to violence and its representation. The poets discussed here write violent love poems and violent elegies as well as violent fantasies composed in stabs of violent verse and violet prose. The poems themselves comprise fantasies of killing David Cameron, dreams of being split open along a seam, basement songs, hundreds of pages of notes on working life in a privatized care home in Hove, East Sussex, a four-line slogan about the Cologne groping scandal of New Year 2016, variations on the Refugees Medical Phrasebook, a life wasted in a factory in Guangzhou, an autobiographical sci-fi internet fever dream, an anarchist elegy, and a refusal to argue. Ultimately, Hayward argues that the lessons this poetry teaches is never to write a worthy narrative when a fucked up collage will do. Rather than a cohesive account of a school of poets, or a contribution to the boring tittle-tattle of aesthetic debates over British poetry as an institution, Wound Building is a front-line report on the local disasters of a contemporary UK poetry caught in the grip of the historical cataclysm of capitalist culture. Wound Building is further concerned with aesthetic problems related to Marxism, anarchism, contemporary trans politics, and class, though its theoretical preoccupations are subordinated to its desire to provide a ground-level view on the writing itself, its production, its intellectual aporia, and the ways it finds itself outstripped by the ongoing march of events. The book will be of interest not only for those concerned with contemporary British political and experimental poetry, but also more generally for anyone who wishes to think carefully about what it means to make art about present-day history and its many horrible enormities. The book's title is derived from the idea of sublime woundedness that subtends the context of the poets discussed here: the impressions of wounds opening up like LED-lit shopfronts in the night, in a parallel universe in which injury is intoxicatingly impersonal and structural, and which forms the environment in which the poems fight to absolutize the value of every last breath, or face into the reality of extravagantly violent wish fulfillment, or dissolve themselves in a search for new ways of professing love, or transform into a kind of expressionism of vomiting up medical-diagnostic categories found in abstract social labor, or pump their verses full of the convulsive rhythms of surprise and sudden relief, without any guarantee that this is the right thing to do or that anyone will even fucking hear. Wound Building does not historicize this state of affairs as much as it attempts to live alongside the immediacy of this work, in order to see what is still possible for poetry, and criticism, to make and do. |
