Reporting for the Media

Reporting for the Media, 10/e is a revision of our successful introduction to news writing and reporting, the basic course that all Journalism students take. It introduces students to what reporters do - engage the world around them, generate story ideas, gather information, and write stories. This book's sterling reputation is built on its thorough grounding in and focus on the basics: grammar, news writing style, traditional story structures, etc. This approach has allowed the text to retain much of its market share, and despite the changes that social media has brought about since the ninth edition published in 2008, it currently holds the #2 spot in the market. We reviewed the current edition with 4 users and 5 non-users. The book is very well respected, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with several specific suggestions for improvement. For this revision, chapters 1 and 2 will be combined into a single introductory chapter, with references and exercises relating to copy editing symbols removed from the text and placed on a companion website. Chapters 12 and 22 (Writing Obituaries and Becoming a Professional, respectively) will be removed from the text and placed on the website as well. The appendix containing the abridged AP Stylebook will also be moved to the website - reviewers indicated that because they require purchase of the AP stylebook as a supplemental text, neither they nor their students consult textbooks' abridged style guides often, and that the decision whether to adopt a text did not take into account such an appendix. To address the changing nature of how news is reported, the authors will add a chapter on writing for digital media and cross-platform storytelling. Finally, the framework of the text will be reorganized so that the text is broken into four parts, with the chapters that cover libel and ethics placed earlier, in part two.

This brilliant and insightful contribution to cultural studies investigates the role of literature—particularly the novel—and visual arts in the development of institutions. Arguing the attitudes expressed in narrative literature and art between 1719 and 1779 helped bring about the change from traditional prisons to penitentiaries, John Bender offers studies of Robinson Crusoe, Moll Flanders, The Beggar's Opera, Hogarth's Progresses, Jonathan Wild, and Amelia as well as illustrations from prison literature, art, and architecture in support of his thesis.

Ends of Enlightenment

Ends of Enlightenment explores three realms of eighteenth-century European innovation that remain active in the twenty-first century: the realist novel, philosophical thought, and the physical sciences, especially human anatomy. The European Enlightenment was a state of being, a personal stance, and an orientation to the world. Ways of probing experience and knowledge in the novel and in the visual arts were interleaved with methods of experimentation in science and philosophy. This book's fresh perspective considers the novel as an art but also as a force in thinking. The critical distance afforded by a view back across the centuries allows Bender to redefine such novelists as Defoe, Fielding, Goldsmith, Godwin, and Laclos by placing them along philosophers and scientists like Newton, Locke, and Hume but also alongside engravings by Hogarth and by anatomist William Hunter. His book probes the kinship among realism, hypothesis, and scientific fact, defining in the process the rhetorical basis of public communication during the Enlightenment.

die Autoren eröffnen in ihrem Buch eine neue Sicht auf Bild und Wort beziehungsweise artikulierte und dichte Systeme im Sinne Goodmans, die sie zu einem instruktiven Diagrammkonzept zusammenführen. Diagramme sind Amalgame des Erkennens. Sie sind aber auch innerweltlich vorfindbare Gegenstände, mit denen kognitiv gearbeitet wird. Diagrammatisches Denken eröffnet Querverweise und ermöglicht so eine relationale, vom Erkennenden aktiv betriebene Urteilsbildung. Es führt zu einem Wissen, das konkret und prozesshaft ist.
