Bristol: Intellect, 2025. 588 pp. ISBN 9781835950784 (pbk).This review takes up Nicolas Ballet's 2025 book Shock Factory: The Visual Culture of Industrial Music.

The Role of Prosody in Disambiguating English Indirect Requests
Ambiguity pervades language. The sentence “My office is really hot” could be interpreted as a complaint about the temperature or as an indirect request to turn on the air conditioning. How do comprehenders determine a speaker’s intended interpretation? One possibility is that speakers and comprehenders exploit prosody to overcome the pragmatic ambiguity inherent in indirect requests. In a pre-registered behavioral experiment, we find that human l…
La valse-hésitation
Quand nous avons entrepris de republier ce texte extrait d’un livre passionnant sur l’histoire de la musique industrielle 1 , nous avions bien sûr en tête le retour à la mode de l’extrême-droite ; le fascisme, dans les scènes indus et post-indus, étant toujours d’actualité. On en parle souvent en termes de « folklore », d’« imaginaire », d’« ambiguïté » ou de simple goût de la provocation 2 , mais on peut se poser la question des moyens qu’on se …
An Idiom of Melodic-Harmonic Divorce
Within the stratified harmonic behavior known as melodic-harmonic divorce, this paper identifies a gesture repeated idiomatically across rock repertory. Dubbed “sub-circle” motion, this idiom is specifically a form of syntax divorce wherein a melodic layer unfolds in a way consonant with and suggestive of circle-of-fifths root motion (+P4) between two accompanying major chords; however, the harmonic layer’s root instead moves up by a minor third …
Excavation at Bantham, South Devon, and Post-Roman Trade in South-West England
Excavation at Bantham Ham in 2001 examined a sequence of post-Roman occupation with radiocarbon dates centred on the late 5th and 6th centuries. Despite the limited area of exposure, a major and unusually well-preserved assemblage of Mediterranean amphorae was recovered; among sites in the British Isles, the quantity of ceramics is second only to that from Tintagel. This assemblage is of great significance in the study of links between western Br…
Causal effects of sex preference on sex-blind and sex-selective child avoidance and substitution across birth years
Critique of Canaan Banana's call to rewrite the Bible
Canaan Banana is an African liberation theologian who was prominently involved in Zimbabwe's liberation struggle. He has written an article 'The Case for a New Bible' in which he argues that the Christian Bible should be rewritten so that it can be relevant for people in postcolonial societies. Banana is concerned that there are oppressive texts in the Bible that continue to be used by people to legitimise the oppression of others. He argues that…
Genre, Setting and Title of 4Q477
Le fragment de Qumran 4Q477 rappelle que des individus specifiques furent reprimandes pour leurs transgressions. Cette information apparait essentielle lorsqu'il s'agit de l'evaluation annuelle et des rangs des individus dans la communaute. Ce fragment est en realite une liste generique qui temoignage des reprimandes issues de la communaute a l'egard de ses membres
The Dead Sea Scrolls on Microfiche
Qumran Corner
L'auteur aborde un probleme de publication des fragments des Manuscrits de la Mer Morte en particulier, et de tout fragment de manuscrit en general: selon lui les editeurs font reference, par le mot fragment, a un ensemble de morceaux de parchemin ou de papyrus inscrits, et non a une piece de manuscrit intacte
