Making use of extensive archival research, the author of this new study examines this ‘invasion of translations’ through a detailed statistical analysis of the translation market . The book shows how translations appeared to challenge official claims about the birth of a Fascist culture and cast Italy in a receptive role that did not tally with Fascist notions of a dominant culture extending its influence abroad . The author shows further that the commercial impact of this invasion provoked a sustained reaction against translated popular literature on the part of those writers and intellectuals who felt threat- his volume contains a selection of the proceedings of a conference on European problems of identity titled Europe and its Others, which was held in St Andrews in July 2007 . It looks at some of the histories and stories that connect the European margins to an imagined or imaginary centre of this complex continent as seen mostly from within, and with self-reflective insights from literary, socio-historical and cinematic perspectives . By following the marginal route created by the essays, the volume juxtaposes, as in a mosaic, a range of artistic discourses produced in many European languages . Each of these discourses highlights Publishing Translations in Fascist Italy Oxford, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt am Main, New York, Wien, 2010 .

He examines the aggressive campaign that was conducted against the Italian Publishers Federation by the Authors and Writers Union (led by the Futurist poet F . T . Marinetti), accusing them of favouring their private profit over the national interest . Finally, the author traces the evolution of Fascist censorship, showing how the regime developed a gradually more repressive policy towards translations as notions of cultural purity began to influence the perception of imported literature .

Lying one next to the other, these territories engage in dialogue poetic- ally – harmoniously or dissonantly – in an attempt to create through their juxtaposition an enigmatic poetic discourse of the margins .

Her W Richard Scholar Langues et littératures romanes · Romanistik · Romance Languages and Literatures Montaigne and the Art of Free-Thinking Oxford, 2010 . X, 229 pp ., num . ill . e know a great deal of what Michel de Montaigne (1533-92), Shakespeare’s near-contemporary and fellow literary mastermind, thinks . We know, because he tells us on page after page of his Essais, which have marked literature and thought since the European Renaissance and remain to this day compelling reading . It might seem surprising, with this wealth of evidence at hand, that Montaigne could prove so elusive in his thinking . Yet elusive he proves, as volatile as he is voluble . What, we are left wondering, does all that thinking amount to? How is it to be understood? And what value might it have for us? Montaigne has too often seen his thinking reduced to the expression of an ‘-ism’ . Richard Scholar investigates the nature – and detail – of Montaigne’s evolving attempts to seek out that elusive thing called truth . Examining at close quarters passages from across the Essais, Scholar provides twentyfirst-century readers with a companion guide to a text that is rooted in the time and place of its composition and yet continues to speak to the present, to haunt its readers, to ask them the questions that matter . research interests range from twentieth-century poetry and narrative to contemporary Italian cinema . She has published on Cesare Pavese, Eugenio Montale and film director Mario Martone . She is currently completing a monograph on Eugenio Montale and researching a new volume dedicated exclusively to the poetry of Cesare Pavese . hb .

X, 193 pp . pb . ISBN 978-3-03911-905-9 CHF 52 .– / € D 35 .60 / € A 36 .60 / € 33 .30 / £ 30 .– / US-$ 51 .95 W hile popular music and the mass media in France are firmly established areas of enquiry, there have been relatively few academic studies of the youth and popular music press . This book focuses on Salut les copains (Hi Buddies/Mates) (1962-76), which achieved a circulation of a million copies within its first year, at its peak sold around twice as many magazines as its nearest competitors, and has now become synonymous with the development of youth culture in 1960s France . In the few existing accounts of Salut les copains cultural commentators have tended to view the magazine as a neutral, apolitical vehicle for French yé-yé pop stars . However, this full-length study reveals how written texts in Salut les copains (editorial, letters and advertising) both supported and challenged dominant ideologies concerning culture, the nation, youth and gender during the turbulent 1960s and 1970s . ChRiS tinKeR is Reader in French at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh . He has published on French popular culture during the 1960s and 1970s, particularly chanson and the youth media, and is author of Georges Brassens and Jacques Brel: Personal and Social Narratives in Post-war Chanson (2005) .
