★本書榮獲國藝會文學類創作和出版補助，是一本探觸自殺與遺族經驗的講演小說，同時也是一場圍繞身分、創傷與悲劇傳統展開的講演式演出，呈現極具實驗精神與創意的邊界書寫。★以歷史戲劇文本為參照框架，在時空之間穿梭往復，擴展個體對生命與死亡的理解視野，進而建構自殺的人文圖像。這是以講演（lecture performance）形式精神所寫成的三幕劇小說，交織著多元的文本，虛實相映：遠古神話的幽影、戲劇作品的迴聲、舞臺演出的評論、榮格心理學的召喚、創傷與自殺相關的研究，以及來自天外的十二封信，由敘事者引領穿梭其中。講演作為藝術表演的形式，源自一九六〇年代的歐美前衛劇場，其「表演性」（performativity）是一種關於身分認同的論述手段，強調過程與實驗性質。小說援引多部經典劇作《蝴蝶夫人》、《伊底帕斯王》、《羅密歐與茱麗葉》、《晚安，媽媽》、《4.48 精神崩潰》與《自殺的解剖》，論證悲劇主角從古典時代的男性英雄，轉向當代女性與自殺者遺族的演變，有歷史的必然性。書中將自殺者遺族比喻成薛西佛斯，在亡者缺席的人間繼續生活，恍如每天推著巨石上山，卻不斷地跌落。敘事者身處當代英國戲劇現場，從劇評人的寶座跌落，他的嘗試自殺，與自殺者遺族的因緣橫跨兩世的生命。多重的身分，隨著情節的發展，與遠古的神話交疊，呼應主角的命運，真實的自我也呼之欲出。第一幕從遠古的神話說起，鋪陳敘事者如何從劇評人的寶座跌落，並在自殺獲救後與自殺者遺族Susan相遇。第二幕描寫他與Susan情感的發展，體會到自殺者與其遺族難分難捨的關係，逐漸走進不堪直視的原初場景（primal scene），再度經歷創傷與精神崩潰的過程。第三幕則呈現他試圖在日常生活中向前行走，卻無意間被捲入前世的一段因緣，終致卡關。這不僅是一部關於自殺與遺族的小說，更是一場以身分、創傷與悲劇傳統為核心的講演式演出；以歷史戲劇文本作為參照，在時空之中穿梭，擴充個體對於生命與死亡的理解，建構對自殺的人文圖像；並在舞臺與書頁之間，辯證我們如何活著，也如何承受失去。

When Kiss Me, Kate premiered in its first try-out performance, its future was anything but certain. Conceived and staged in just nine months of intense, sometimes chaotic collaboration, the show was a bold experiment: a backstage musical built around a Shakespearean comedy. But once the reviews rolled in, all doubts vanished. The production was a triumph, becoming the most successful stage work of both Cole Porter and the writing duo Sam and Bella Spewack. Yet Kiss Me, Kate has never been without controversy. At its heart, the show is a backstage comedy built around a play-within-a-play adaptation of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. That choice has long invited scrutiny. From its earliest performances to its most recent revivals, Kiss Me, Kate has sparked discussion about adaptation, gender politics, and the evolving tastes of audiences. From its 1948 debut to its 75th anniversary revival, the musical has been both celebrated and critiqued, reflecting shifting cultural attitudes

Via a diverse collection of essays in the history of art of the Americas, this book explores the cultural, political and environmental legacy of bananas from viceregal painting and 19th century photography to contemporary Latinx and Caribbean Art.Through sixteen original essays by leading art historians, this anthology traces the banana's remarkable journey from colonial still lifes to contemporary installations. The collection examines how artists have deployed this tropical fruit to challenge imperial narratives, visualize labor struggles, and reclaim cultural identities. Expanding on the award-winning digital humanities project Banana Craze, this volume presents a comprehensive analysis of banana imagery across diverse media--religious murals, archival photographs, avant-garde paintings, and performance art. Each chapter illuminates how artists from Latin America, the Caribbean, and their diasporas have transformed this ubiquitous commodity into a complex visual metaphor that speaks

The translation elucidates the complex metaphors, mythological and historical figures, and nomenclature of the Daoist tradition in thoughtfully rendered English.The Daoist Liturgy of the Most High for Daily Recitation (Taishang xuanmen gongke jing 太上玄門功課經) is performed in Daoist temples every morning and evening. The ritual aims at a perfected state for self-cultivation and serves as a religious prayer for universal salvation from sufferings and calamities in the world.

Dribbling Divides: Football, Islam, and Identity offers a compelling view of how global football intersects with Muslim identity, faith, and politics in an era shaped by migration, digital media, and rising populism. Drawing from rich case studies of elite Muslim footballers, this book examines how players navigate racism, Islamophobia, and national belonging while maintaining visible piety and engaging in activism. From fasting on match days to taking public stands on global Muslim issues, these athletes challenge dominant narratives about loyalty, integration, and modernity. Sociologist Kamaludeen Nasir brings a unique perspective as both a football fan and a scholar, offering insights into the lived realities of Muslim players in Europe, the Middle East, and beyond. He unpacks how club ownership, digital performance, gender politics, and faith-based practices shape the contemporary sporting landscape. By shifting the analytical gaze from fans to players, Dribbling Divides invites re

Metal music is heavy, but what does that mean? Heaviness is not just a timbre or quality of sound-it's an experience of impact that listeners help create. This book combines methodologies from musicology, music theory, cognitive science, and performance studies to define heaviness as a cross-sensory experience and aesthetic practice. Heaviness is shaped by what we do when we listen, how we think about metal music, and how we relate to the people who make and listen to it. Despite metal's historical narrative of "leaving the blues behind," many aspects of the genre perpetuate legacies of blues' musical style and highly racialized reception-including headbanging, and metal's ideologies and aesthetics of oppositional authenticity, loudness, heaviness, and extremity. Musicians and listeners navigate their own way through this landscape of legacies, re-enacting the genre's ideologies and musical structures through their own headbanging and moshing. Metal musicians perpetuate the genre's nor
