Book Description
Bored to tears of bullies and boredom? Prepare for the laugh-out-loud adventure of the year with Chubby Chan's upside-down extravaganza! After a foolish blunder lands our roly-poly hero in court, the judge metes out a harsh sentence: 60 days of community service, supervised by the peculiar, eccentric, and utterly madcap Mr. Keen. But when Chubby Chan sneaks into Mr. Keen's forbidden office, he stumbles upon the fantastical and upside-down world of Upsidonia! In this topsy-turvy land, Chubby Chan befriends A-Tom, an endearing football-shaped creature, and learns of a mission assigned to him by the ominous council known as the Great Assembly - to locate the elusive Great Door to return home. This kickstarts Chubby Chan's bizarre journey, full of peculiar characters such as the geometric R-Aptors, the elusive Shimmeratti, and the enormous Y-Me. Along the journey, he's joined by Bruce, a headstrong boy from his own world who's on his own path to redemption. But as a sinister plan by the Shimmeratti threatens to obliterate Upsidonia forever, Chubby Chan and Bruce must unite their wits and courage to save this enchanting realm. However, Upsidonia holds more secrets than Chubby Chan could have ever imagined. As reality melds with illusion, Chubby Chan begins to realize that his extraordinary trials are teaching him invaluable lessons about bravery, acceptance, self-belief, and viewing the world from different perspectives. Can Chubby unravel the mysteries of Upsidonia and find The Great Door before it’s too late? Can he ever return home? Overflowing with imagination and heart, this magical middle-grade adventure set in an ingenious upside-down world explores profound themes of personal growth and redemption amidst a backdrop of humor and fun.

Culture and Power
Author: Eduardo de Gregorio-Godeo
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443865591
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Questions of identity and identification are among the most important evolving concerns of contemporary cultural studies. Through processes of personal identification with discursively constructed subject positions, identities emerge across a wide range of cultural practices in the course of social interactions involving the use of language and other semiotic systems manifested in cultural artefacts of various kinds. The present collection includes a selection of papers on the topic of identity and identification in cultural studies today. Incorporating theoretical contributions and practical case studies, this monograph adds to contemporary debates on identity-forging practices from various theoretical positions in different social, historic and national contexts. The chapters of this volume range from overtly theoretical discussions on the construction of identities and subjectivities in post-modernity, to examinations of the crucial role of (print) media in identity-construction and -representation processes in contemporary social formations through an insight into other key issues in cultural studies, such as gender politics and the construction of femininities, the hybridization of identities in the context of postcolonial work, and the interplay between collective identities and discourses on nation.
