The immediate post-war period marks a pivotal moment in the internationalization of American theatre when Tennessee Williams'' plays became some of Broadway''s most critically acclaimed and financially lucrative exports. Dirk Gindt offers a detailed study of the production and reception of Williams'' work on Swedish and French stages at the height of his popularity between 1945 and 1965. Analysing the national openings of seminal plays, including The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Orpheus Descending and Suddenly Last Summer, Gindt provides rich and nuanced insights into Williams'' transnational impact. In the process, he charts a network of fascinating and influential directors, actors, designers, producers and critics, all of whom left distinctive marks on mid-twentieth-century European theatre and culture. Gindt further demonstrates how Williams'' work foregrounded cultural apprehensions, racial fantasies and sexual anxieties, which resulted in heated debates in the critical and popular media.

This book analyses the impact of HIV and AIDS on performance in the twenty-first century from an international perspective. It marks a necessary reaffirmation of the productive power of performance to respond to a public and political health crisis and act as a mode of resistance to cultural amnesia, discrimination and stigmatisation. It sets out a number of challenges and contexts for HIV and AIDS performance in the twenty-first century, including: the financial interests of the pharmaceutical industry; the unequal access to treatment and prevention technologies in the Global North and Global South; the problematic division between dominant (white, gay, urban, cis-male) and marginalised narratives of HIV; the tension between a damaging cultural amnesia and a potentially equally damaging partner ‘AIDS nostalgia’; the criminalisation of HIV non-disclosure; and, sustaining and sustained by all of these, the ongoing stigmatisation of people living with HIV.This collection presents work from a vast range of contexts, grouped around four main areas: women’s voices and experiences; generations, memories and temporalities; inter/national narratives; and artistic and personal reflections and interventions.

Modevetenskap är ett nytt ämne i Sverige som ytterst bottnar i svenska modedesigners och modeföretags framgångar, inte minst internationellt. Boken, som till stor del fokuserar på svenska förhållanden, vänder sig till studenter och lärare inom området men också till en modeintresserad allmänhet.Innehållet, som ger en tvärvetenskaplig introduktion till modevetenskap, sträcker sig över traditionella ämnesgränser — men med en fast förankring i teman som mode, kläder, konsumtion, representation, kropp, identitet, makt och ekonomi. Här beskrivs ur olika perspektiv mode som kulturellt, socialt och ekonomiskt fenomen, både historiskt och i nutid, samt vilka mekanismer som styr våra val och hur kläder och accessoarer påverkar oss. Bokens tretton författare är lärare och forskare inom humaniora, samhällsvetenskap och ekonomi vid olika akademiska discipliner.Bokens redaktörer är Dirk Gindt, filosofie doktor i teatervetenskap, och Louise Wallenberg, filosofie doktor i filmvetenskap. Båda är verksamma vid Centrum för modevetenskap, Stockholms universitet.
