The Broken Middle offers a startlingly original rethinking of the modern philosophical tradition and fundamentally rejects the anti-philosophy and anti-theory of post-modernity. Extending across the disciplines from philosophy to theology, Judaica, law, social and political theory, literary criticism, feminism and architecture, this book stakes itself on a renewed potential for sustained critique. Against the grain of much contemporary thought, this work of criticism offers the reader a way beyond the spurious alternatives of "totalization" or acknowledgement of the "other".The Broken Middle expounds the phenomenology of the diremption of law and ethics. By reconstructing the suppressed political history of modernity, it shows that contemporary thought belongs to a tradition which has become ancient. Following this drama in the configuration of anxiety of beginning, equivocation of the ethical, and agon of authorship, the logos opens out of the pathos of the concept. Autorid: Gillian Rose
On the scorching February day in 2009 that became known as Black Saturday, a man lit two fires in Victorias Latrobe Valley, then sat on the roof of his house to watch the inferno. In the Valley, where the rates of crime were the highest in the state, more than thirty people were known to police as firebugs. But the detectives soon found themselves on the trail of a man they didnt know. The Arsonist takes readers on the hunt for this man, and inside the strange puzzle of his mind. It is also the story of fire in Australia, and of a community that owed its existence to that very element. The command of fire has defined and sustained us as a species understanding its abuse will define our future. A powerful real-life thriller written with Hoopers trademark lyric detail and nuance, The Arsonist is a reminder that in an age of fire, all of us are gatekeepers. Praise for other titles by Chloe Hooper 'Life springs from every page of this enthralling book.' - Helen Garner 'A gripping, heart-stopping piece of true-crime reportage . . . Deserves the widest possible audience.' - Sunday Times 'It is impossible to overestimate the importance of this book.' - Peter Carey 'A sad, beautiful, frightening account of one man's pointless death . . . Every character is explored for their contradictions, every situation observed for its nuances, every easy judgement suspended . . . Hooper finds the common humanity in the accused and the accuser, the police officer and the street drinker, the living and the dead.' - Mark Dapin, Good Weekend, Sydney Morning Herald Autorid: Chloe Hooper

The volume aims to provide insights into current research on various mobility phenomena, including individual and population movements, as well as the exchange of goods and ideas/knowledge between neighboring regions, Slavonia and Bosnia, and other areas in the surrounding regions. The concept of translocality addresses the circulation of people and goods, as well as the simultaneous transfer and convergence of culture and knowledge between local contexts. In addition to the research of historical interactions between Slavonia and Bosnia, the volume was open to the research of historical interaction between regions in other parts of Southeast Europe and adjacent areas as well as to theoretical contributions that are relevant for the research of translocal connections between and across regions.
June Jones lives in Chalcot, the sleepy village she grew up in . . . the village she's barely ever left. Throughout her childhood, she was either buried in a book or arm-in-arm with her Mum - her best friend and Chalcot's beloved local librarian. When her mother grew ill, June put her own life on hold to take charge of the library. Now, years since her Mum's death, June has retreated further and further into herself and her memories, surviving on Chinese takeaways for one and rereading their favourite books at home. But when the council announces it wants to close the library, a reluctant and reclusive June is forced to join a ragtag band of pensioners and eccentric locals who establish the Friends of Chalcot Library campaign to keep it open. And it just so happens that June's old school friend Alex Chen is back in Chalcot to help his poorly father, and he's more than willing to lend a helping hand. June can't face the idea of losing her job and the place that holds the dearest memories of her mum, so it's time for her to finally make some changes to her life and protect the library. Because maybe, in fighting to save her community, the community, and Alex, can save June, too.
