"The Province of Jurisprudence Determined" is a seminal work in legal philosophy, presenting the first part of a series of lectures by John Austin on jurisprudence, also known as the philosophy of positive law. Originally published in 1832 and later edited by his wife, Sarah Austin, this volume lays out Austin''s foundational theories, distinguishing positive law from morality and other forms of social rules. Austin''s rigorous analysis and systematic approach had a profound impact on the development of legal thought in the English-speaking world. This book remains essential reading for students and scholars seeking to understand the intellectual roots of modern legal positivism and its continuing relevance to contemporary debates about the nature of law and legal systems.

A philosophical book on what it means to play in a world on fire--of how we can move our bodies and brains through the thorny problems life can throw at us. Author Sarah Austin Casson brings us on her adventures around the world and in her backyard, from the high Himalayas of Nepal and the deep seas of Thailand to her backyard dirt trails in Los Angeles and many other places, to explore how we can all play with life''s hard questions. Plenty of us are anxious right now. In 2019, Casson found herself covered in stress eczema, working too many hours a wilderness conservationist, sinking under the weight of the world''s hard questions. Casson looked around and realized that these questions haunt most of us--and that they always seem to pop up when you''re trying to do something else. They showed up asking about deforestation while she enjoyed a to-go cup of coffee with a friend. Pestered her about lithium mining''s ecological impacts as she opened her laptop to watch a romantic comedy. These challenging questions kept showing up to remind her of very reasonable things to panic about at inconvenient times. They wouldn''t disappear no matter how hard she pushed them away. The hard questions asked, what should we do about our world''s problems and what is my individual and collective role in these problems? Somehow, though, Casson found that these tough problems always seemed more manageable when she moved her body in nature. As she ran, hiked, and dived, she found she had the mental space to move beyond repetitious panic and start playing with these questions. The key to these thorny problems seemed to be not just in her mind, but in her body itself. Casson realized that these questions don''t go away but that we can handle them better. We can play with them. The best way to play with them is outdoors while sweating--physically and mentally.

This book outlines how an innovative ‘rights-based’ model of contemporary performance practice can be used when working with children and young people. This model, framed by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), challenges the idea of children as vulnerable and in need of protection, argues for the recognition of the child’s voice, and champions the creativity of children in performance. Sarah Austin draws on rich research and practitioner experience to analyse Youth Arts pedagogies, inclusive theatre practice, models of participation, the symbolic potential of the child in performance, and the work of contemporary theatre practitioners making work with children for adult audiences. The combined practical and written research reflected in this book offers a new, nuanced understanding of children as cultural agents, raising the prospect of a creative process that foregrounds deeper considerations of the strengths and capacities of children. This book would primarily appeal to scholars of theatre and performance studies, specifically those working in the field of applied theatre and theatre for children and young people. Additionally, the practice-based elements of the book are likely to appeal to theatre professionals working in youth arts or theatre for young audiences or associated fields.
