OK Computer: Analogue Death, Digital Rebirth, and Radiohead’s Electronic Turn by Kwasu David Tembo

“…In order to provide as holistic an analysis of the theme of denouement as possible, this paper’s analysis will be predicated on questions, concepts, and ideas including but not limited to the following: the leitmotif of denouement present in the thematic influences on the album, such as the influence of the track “Exit Music (For a Film)” commissioned by director Baz Luhrmann on the rest of the album; the influence of radical analogue experimentation culled from Miles Davis’ avant-garde jazz fusion album Bitches Brew (1970); the theme of resignation, interstice, liminality, and transference/-formation in relation to the “computer syndrome” as discussed in Michael Heffernan’s “Fin de Siècle, Fin du Monde?” …”

Sequential Self‐Polymerization of Phenolic Compounds with Alkanedithiol Linkers as a Surface‐Independent and Solvent‐Resistant Surface Functionalization Strategy by Jiwon Lim, Meng‐Hsun Lee, Abigail Ahn, Jinsang Kim

“…The resulting copolymer takes advantage of the diverse binding modes of catechol and gallol and the conformal substrate contact facilitated by the flexible aliphatic chain of ADT. Moreover, Michael addition and thiyl radical addition reactions between ADT and phenolic compounds produce crosslinked resulting polymer films, rendering solvent resistance to the surface coating. …”

The Book of Ruth as intra-biblical critique on the Deuteronomic law by Georg Braulik

“… The Book of Ruth, written in the post-exilic period, constitutes a 'homily on Dt 23-25', (Michael D Goulder). It is the only biblical example of an entire book systematically subjecting a body of laws from the Deuteronomic code to a socio-critical (Rt 1-2) and sexual-critical (Rt 3-4) relecture through various kinds of allusions. …”

Potential risks to the National Health Service (NHS) of a Post-Brexit US Trade Deal by Louise Dalingwater

A Gothic heterotopia: four Anglophone responses to Venice by John Thieme

“…It pursues this line of thinking in relation to four Anglophone representations of Venice: the recent film A Haunting in Venice (2023), directed by Kenneth Branagh and scripted by Michael Green, which is very loosely adapted from Agatha Christie’s Hallowe’en Party (1969), and which subjects the whodunnit genre to a Gothic makeover, Daphne du Maurier’s short story ‘Don’t Look Now’ (1971) and Nicolas Roeg’s film adaptation (1973) of it, in which the Gothic particularly manifests itself in the form of psychic precognition, and Amitav Ghosh’s novel Gun Island (2019), in which an ostensibly realistic novel is infiltrated by recurrent paranormal elements, several of which are occasioned by the ‘unnaturalness’ of climate change. …”

D. G. Rossetti’s Trip to Paris and Belgium: A Journey Between Past and Present by Raphaël Rigal

“…Despite not being as exotic as the expeditions of Richard Burton or David Livingstone, this trip was particularly meaningful, not only because of the context (the early years of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, soon after the 1848 Revolutions) but also because it was related by Rossetti himself, who wrote a series of poems during the journey and sent them in letters to his brother William Michael and some other members of the Brotherhood. …”
