How Music Works : A Physical Culture Theory
How do we understand culture and shape its future? How do we cross the bridge between culture as ideas and feelings and physical, cultural objects, all this within the endless variety and complexity of modern and traditional societies?This book proposes a Physical Culture Theory, taking culture as a self-organizing impulse pattern of electric forces.Bridging the gap to consciousness, the Physical Culture Theory proposes that consciousness content, what we think, hear, feel, or see is also just this: spatio-temporal electric fields.Music is a perfect candidate to elaborate on such a Physical Culture Theory.Music is all three, musical instrument acoustics, music psychology, and music ethnology.They emerge into living musical systems like all life is self-organization.Therefore the Physical Culture Theory knows no split between nature and nurture, hard and soft sciences, brains and musical instruments.It formulates mathematically complex systems as Physical Models ratherthan Artificial Intelligence. It includes ethical rules for maintaining life and finds culture and arts to be Human Rights.Enlarging these ideas and mathematical methods into all fields of culture, ecology, economy, or the like will be the task for the next decades to come.

Fictions of Affliction : Physical Disability in Victorian Culture
"Highly recommended . . . Holmes moves seamlessly from novelists like Charles Dickens to sociologists like Henry Mayhew to autobiographers like John Kitto."---Choice "An absolutely stunning book that will make a significant contribution to both Victorian literary studies and disability studies."---Rosemarie Garland-Thomson, Emory University "Establishes that Victorian melodrama informs many of our contemporary notions of disability . . . We have inherited from the Victorians not pandemic disability, but rather the complex of sympathy and fear."---Victorian Studies Tiny Tim, Clym Yeobright, Long John Silver---what underlies nineteenth-century British literature's fixation with disability?Melodramatic representations of disability pervaded not only novels, but also doctors' treatises on blindness, educators' arguments for "special" education, and even the writing of disabled people themselves.Drawing on extensive primary research, Martha Stoddard Holmes introduces readers to popular literary and dramatic works that explored culturally risky questions like "can disabled men work?" and "should disabled women have babies?" and makes connections between literary plots and medical, social, and educational debates of the day.Martha Stoddard Holmes is Associate Professor of Literature and Writing Studies at California State University, San Marcos.

Extraordinary Bodies : Figuring Physical Disability in American Culture and Literature
Extraordinary Bodies is a cornerstone text of disability studies, establishing the field upon its publication in 1997.Framing disability as a minority discourse rather than a medical one, the book added depth to oppressive narratives and revealed novel, liberatory ones.Through her incisive readings of such texts as Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin and Rebecca Harding Davis's Life in the Iron Mills, Rosemarie Garland-Thomson exposed the social forces driving representations of disability.She encouraged new ways of looking at texts and their depiction of the body and stretched the limits of what counted as a text, considering freak shows and other pop culture artifacts as reflections of community rites and fears.Garland-Thomson also elevated the status of African-American novels by Toni Morrison and Audre Lorde.Extraordinary Bodies laid the groundwork for an appreciation of disability culture and an inclusive new approach to the study of social marginalization.
