Abstract

This edited volume of fourteen specially commissioned essays written from a variety of critical perspectives by leading cervantine scholars seeks to provide an overview of Cervantes's 'Novelas ejemplares' which will be of interest to a broad academic readership. An extensive general Introduction places the Novelas in the context of Cervantes's life and work; provides basic information about their content, composition, internal ordering, publication, and critical reception, gives detailed consideration to the contemporary literary-theoretical issues implicit in the title, and outlines and contributes to the key critical debates on their variety, unity, exemplarity, and supposed 'hidden mystery'. After a series of chapters on the individual stories, the volume concludes with two survey essays devoted, respectively, to the understanding of eutrapelia implicit in the Novelas, and to the dynamics of the character pairing that is one of their salient features. Detailed plot summaries of each of the stories, and a Guide to Further Reading are supplied as appendices.

Abstract

Many men experience guilt about their role in the mistreatment of others, resentment about being overburdened, and profound alienation from themselves and their world. In this much-needed book, Stephen Boyd exposes the detrimental impact of society's patriarchal demands and definition of men. He argues that many men become alternately "lonely warriors" and "desperate lovers" who have difficulty with relationships. He then offers an alternative identity for men and challenges them to transform their ways of being. Presenting a new view of manhood rooted in a renewed spirituality that recovers the best of Christian teaching, it provides men with an expansive way of being father, husband, lover, brother, and son.

Abstract

“Convex optimization problems arise frequently in many different fields. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject, and shows in detail how such problems can be solved numerically with great efficiency. The book begins with the basic elements of convex sets and functions, and then describes various classes of convex optimization problems. Duality and approximation techniques are then covered, as are statistical estimation techniques. Various geometrical problems are then presented, and there is detailed discussion of unconstrained and constrained minimization problems, and interior-point methods. The focus of the book is on recognizing convex optimization problems and then finding the most appropriate technique for solving them. It contains many worked examples and homework exercises and will appeal to students, researchers and practitioners in fields such as engineering, computer science, mathematics, statistics, finance and economics. Gives comprehensive details on how to recognize convex optimization problems in a wide variety of settings ; Provides a broad range of practical algorithms for solving real problems ; Contains hundreds of worked examples and homework exercises”
