Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.Ballot examines the psychological, cultural, and political significance of voting in an increasingly anti-voting climate. Armed with her personal experiences as a poll worker, electoral organizer, and activist, Anjali Enjeti unspools a timely narrative about the precarious state of the ballot during one of the most tumultuous political eras in US history, and recounts the astonishing events leading up to the 2024 presidential election.Enjeti lays out the growing challenges for voters in battleground states, where rightwing legislatures have introduced staggering numbers of voter suppression bills and redrawn district lines, all to disenfranchise as many Black and other marginalized voters as possible. As her account of the history and stakes of election integrity shows, the aftershocks of the Capitol insurrection on January 6, 2021 have manifested most egregiously on the four corners of the ballot. Ballot chronicles the history of ballots used in American elections, their psychological, cultural, and political impact, and the post-2020 bills, laws, and policies that suppress the vote.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Airportness takes the reader on a single days journey through all the routines and stages of an ordinary flight. From curbside to baggage, and pondering the minutes and hours of sitting in between, Christopher Schaberg contemplates the mundane world of commercial aviation to discover the nature of flight. For Schaberg this means hearing planes in the sky, recognizing airline symbols in unlikely places, and navigating the various zones of transit from sliding doors, to jet bridge, to lavatory. It is an ongoing, swarming ecosystem that unfolds each day as we fly, get stranded, and arrive at our destinations. Airportness turns out to be more than just architecture and design elementsrather, it is all the rumble and buzz of flight, the tedium of travel as well as the feelings of uplift.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Debated, denied, unheard of, encompassing: The Anthropocene is a vexed topic, and requires interdisciplinary imagination.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A 2019 Prose Award FinalistWhat is the role of literary studies in an age of Twitter threads and viral news?If the study of literature today is not just about turning to classic texts with age-old questions, neither is it a rejection of close reading or critical inquiry. Through the lived experience of a humanities professor in a rapidly changing world, this book explores how the careful study of literature and culture may be precisely what we need to navigate our dizzying epoch of post-truth politics and ecological urgency. Part meditation, part manifesto, this book spurs us--in a climate of so-called post-truth--to consider and value the importance of the humanities and the training in rigorous thinking it provides.
