    Food is fundamental to health and social participation, yet food poverty has increased in the global North. Adopting a realist ontology and taking a comparative case approach, Families and Food in Hard Times addresses the global problem of economic retrenchment and how those most affected are those with the least resources. Based on research carried out with low-income families with children aged 11-15, this timely book examines food poverty in the UK, Portugal and Norway in the decade following the 2008 financial crisis. It examines the resources to which families have access in relation to public policies, local institutions and kinship and friendship networks, and how they intersect. Through ‘thick description’ of families’ everyday lives, it explores the ways in which low income impacts upon practices of household food provisioning, the types of formal and informal support on which families draw to get by, the provision and role of school meals in children’s lives, and the constraints upon families’ social participation involving food. Providing extensive and intensive knowledge concerning the conditions and experiences of low-income parents as they endeavour to feed their families, as well as children’s perspectives of food and eating in the context of low income, the book also draws on the European social science literature on food and families to shed light on the causes and consequences of food poverty in austerity Europe.

    On a Clear April Morning, by Marcos Iolovitch, is a lyrical and riveting coming of age story set among early twentieth-century settlers brought to an almost unknown Jewish farming experiment in an isolated corner of Brazil. This autobiographical novel is filled with drama, joy, disasters, romance, and humor. It travels from farms where the crops won’t grow to towns where the Yiddish-speaking protagonist falls in love, befriends sons of German immigrants, studies philosophy with the Jesuits, and becomes an important member of Brazil’s literary world. This first English edition includes elucidating historical notes on the origin of Jewish farming communities in the U.S., Canada and South America by the translator, Merrie Blocker, a retired U.S. Foreign Service officer

    Elisabeth Huber untersucht in ihrer Studie die Möglichkeiten umweltgerechten Handelns der ärmeren städtischen Bevölkerungsschichten im urbanen Raum Westafrikas. Dazu analysiert sie die Praktiken der Abfall- und Abwasserentsorgung in Bamako (Mali) und Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso) unter den dafür relevanten ökonomischen, sozialen und kulturellen Bedingungen. Neben der Erörterung von Armut anhand monetärer Aspekte, fehlender Verwirklichungschancen sowie familiärer und nachbarschaftlicher Solidaritätsstrategien stellt sie die Frage nach dem Zusammenhang von Umweltbewusstsein, Umweltverschmutzung, Umweltschutz, Wohn- und Lebensbedingungen, Infrastruktur und dem »Recht auf Stadt«.

    Literarische Armutsdarstellungen machen nicht nur politische und soziale, sondern auch poetologische Probleme sichtbar. Anhand der Raumentwürfe literarischer Texte diskutiert die komparatistisch angelegte Studie die mit Armut verbundenen Repräsentationsprobleme. Die erzählten Räume geben Aufschluss über die soziale Verortung der Figuren und machen außerdem selbstreflexiv auf die Grenzen der literarischen Darstellungsmöglichkeiten aufmerksam. Sie verweisen daher auf stereotype Zuschreibungen, die seit der Antike die Definition von Armut beeinflussen. Mit Fokus auf jüngst erschienene Romane von Rafael Chirbes, Marlene Streeruwitz und Marie NDiaye wird gezeigt, wie Literatur solche Darstellungstraditionen aufgreift und kritisch reflektiert. Literary depictions of poverty have led to controversial discussions about the poetological, political and social aspects of representation. By focusing on narrated spaces and places in contemporary novels by Rafael Chirbes, Marlene Streeruwitz and Marie NDiaye, this monograph analyses the narrative aspect of social structures as well as literature’s ability to critically engage with its own agency. It demonstrates how literary texts reveal the mechanisms of stereotypical narrations about poverty and the ‘poor’ that have influenced social structures since antiquity by either reproducing or destabilising them.

    In Works and Days, one of the two long poems that have come down to us from Hesiod, the poet writes of farming, morality, and what seems to be a very nasty quarrel with his brother Perses over their inheritance. In this book, Anthony T. Edwards extracts from the poem a picture of the social structure of Ascra, the hamlet in northern Greece where Hesiod lived, most likely during the seventh century b.c.e. Drawing on the evidence of trade, food storage, reciprocity, and the agricultural regime as Hesiod describes them in Works and Days, Edwards reveals Ascra as an autonomous village, outside the control of a polis, less stratified and integrated internally than what we observe even in Homer. In light of this reading, theconflict between Hesiod and Perses emerges as a dispute about the inviolability of the community's external boundary and the degree of interobligation among those within the village. Hesiod's Ascra directly counters the accepted view of Works and Days, which has Hesiod describing a peasant society subordinated to the economic and political control of an outside elite. Through his deft analysis, Edwards suggests a new understanding of both Works and Days and the social and economic organization of Hesiod's time and place

    Dark archive: The purpose of a dark archive is to function as a repository for information that can be used as a failsafe during disaster recovery.Laura Mullen’s fourth collection is a sequence of beautifully interrelated poems that explores how to accurately represent the reality of change and loss. Mullen pinpoints what is at stake: the possibility of communication and connection—and the hope of intimacy. Invoking Wordsworth’s "I wandered lonely as a cloud," she pushes experiments in consciousness against their boundaries in an array of poetic forms. Poetic tropes are measured against natural phenomena as Mullen examines what "witness" might mean in the context of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the failures of capitalism to effect social justice, the murder of James Byrd in Texas, the personal loss of a mother figure, and a disintegrating love affair
