Education in Popular Culture explores what makes schools, colleges, teachers and students an enduring focus for a wide range of contemporary media. What is it about the school experience that makes us wish to relive it again and again? The book provides an overview of education as it is represented in popular culture, together with a framework through which educators can interpret these representations in relation to their own professional values and development. The analyses are contextualised within contemporary, historical and ideological frameworks, and make connections between popular representations and professional and political discourses about education. Through its examination of film, television, popular lyrics and fiction, this book tackles educational themes that recur in popular culture, and demonstrates how they intersect with debates concerning teacher performance, the curriculum and young people's behaviour and morality. Chapters explore how experiences of education are both reflected and constructed in ways that sometimes reinforce official and professional educational perspectives, and sometimes resist and oppose them. Education in Popular Culture will stimulate critical reflection on the popular myths and professional discourses that surround teachers and teaching. It will serve to deepen analyses of teaching and learning and their associated institutional and societal contexts in a creative and challenging way.

Narratieve therapie is een grensverleggende en zeer praktische therapievorm die door steeds meer therapeuten wordt toegepast. Een van de belangrijkste uitgangspunten van deze therapie is dat een probleem niet in de cliÙnt wordt gezocht, maar in de verhalen waarmee iemand zijn of haar werkelijkheid creÙert. Door de cliÙnt te laten vertellen over momenten waarop een probleem niet of nauwelijks van invloed was, wordt een ander verhaal geconstrueerd: een nieuwe werkelijkheid waarin het probleem een kleinere rol speelt.Narratieve therapie in de praktijk biedt de laatste stand van zaken over deze fascinerende en zeer effectieve therapievorm. Het is het magnum opus van Michael White, de grondlegger van de narratieve therapie. In zeer heldere, toegankelijke bewoordingen voert White de lezer stap voor stap langs de zes belangrijkste aandachtsgebieden: externaliserende gesprekken, reautoriserende gesprekken, re-membering gesprekken, definitionele ceremonies, gesprekken met unieke resultaten, en scaffolding gesprekken.Met levendige voorbeelden en letterlijke transcripties van therapeutische dialogen uit zijn eigen praktijk laat White zien hoe de verschillende gespreksvormen van elkaar verschillen, hoe ze effectief zijn in te zetten, en hoe ze cliÙnten kunnen helpen. Hierdoor is dit uiterst praktische en inspirerende handboek niet alleen zeer geschikt voor iedereen die met deze therapie wil kennismaken, maar ook voor meer ervaren professionals.'If this book were a film or a novel, the blurb would read: 'AT LAST!' A powerfully and engaging mixture of personal and professional narrative.' - Therapy Today'This book represents a remarkable leap forward in the narrative literature and in the canon of work on therapy in general.' - Journal of Marital and Family TherapyOver de auteurMichael White schreef verschillende boeken over narratieve therapie en was directeur van het Dulwich Centre in Adelaide, AustraliÙ.

Reichen Lehmkuhl is perhaps best known for the ambition, intelligence, and athleticism that won him the grand prize on CBS's Amazing Race. Since winning the million-dollar prize, Lehmkuhl has gone on to find success acting in film and television. However, he played the biggest role of his life long before his professional acting debut, when he was forced to hide his sexuality to comply with the Air Force's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. Here's What We'll Say tells the harrowing inside story of what happens when cadets who are committed to serving their nation's military figure out that they are in fact gay. With no way out and no place to turn for protection, a new code of conduct emerged among gay and lesbian cadets that helped ensure their safety. Gathering secretly in various locations, cadets formed a hidden network. To guarantee the privacy of individuals in attendance, however, each meeting opened with, "Here's what we'll say" a pledge so sacred that the group had it inscribed on the inside of their class rings.

Luis Buñuel (1900-1983) is een van de belangrijkste filmmakers van de twintigste eeuw. Zijn eigenzinnige oeuvre, van de subversieve films Un chien andalou en L’Âge d’or via monumenten als Los olvidados en Viridiana tot het geraffineerde, Oscarwinnende Le charme discret de la bourgeoisie, is 25 jaar na zijn dood nog steeds verrassend en actueel.Tussen 1975 en 1977 interviewden twee Mexicaanse schrijvers, Tomás Pérez Turrent en José de la Colina, Buñuel over alle 32 films uit zijn lange en rijke leven. Buñuel over Buñuel is een weergave van deze gesprekken. Buñuel had de reputatie dat hij niet graag werd ondervraagd over het hoe en het waarom van zijn werk, maar in deze gesprekken reageert hij op heldere en geestige wijze op de vele, soms vergezochte, interpretaties waartoe zijn films aanleiding hebben gegeven en toont hij meer dan ooit zichzelf, zijn werkwijze en zijn universum. Het boek is een welkome aanvulling op Buñuels bekende memoires Mijn laatste snik, waarin zijn filmoeuvre een ondergeschikte rol speelt.De Nederlandse vertaling onderscheidt zich van alle andere edities door de grote hoeveelheid illustratief beeldmateriaal. De interviews gaan voorts vergezeld van informatieve en vaak verrassende toelichtingen. In een afsluitend gesprek kijkt Buñuels oudste zoon Juan Luis, zelf ook filmregisseur, 25 jaar na de dood van zijn vader terug op diens leven en werk. Speciaal voor deze uitgave schreef Willem Jan Otten een inleidend essay.Over de auteurs:Tomás Pérez Turrent (1937-2006) was een Mexicaans filmcriticus, scenarioschrijver en televisiemaker. Jarenlang schreef hij over film in het dagblad El Universal en diverse Mexicaanse en Franse vakbladen. Verschillende van zijn filmscenario’s werden bekroond. Behalve over Luis Buñuel publiceerde Pérez Turrent boeken over onder meer Buster Keaton en Luis Alcoriza.José de la Colina (1934) is een van origine Spaanse schrijver van korte verhalen en filmscenario’s, die sinds zijn zevende in Mexico woont. Hij maakte rad

Life never ceases to give homage to Jacques Tati. Be it on the beach, in an old part of town, or in the glamour of a modern city, we find everywhere the gags which have peopled such films as Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot and Playtime. If a silhouette crosses us at a street corner, we are quickly reminded of certain scenes in Mon Oncle. Tati was a great film comic who deserves to be placed on the same level as Keaton and Chaplin. Tati created Monsieur Hulot who has now entered the world of screen legends. Above all, Jacques Tati was an exemplary artist who was not scared of taking risks or to invest his entire being in the making of his films. From Jour de fete to Parade, there is a Tati-World which this study invites us to discover. Michael Chion is a critic at Les Cashiers du cinema and has published numerous works which develop his theories on the art of sound in cinema (La Voix au cinema and Le Son au cinema).
