Book A Lasting Impression

Download or read book A Lasting Impression written by Jordan Kerber and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2002-10-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume focuses on coastal archaeology, lithic analysis, and ceramic analysis within the study of New England archaeology. These topics represent the major research interests of the late distinguished archaeologist Barbara E. Luedtke, to whom the volume is dedicated. During her 25-year career in New England archaeology, Luedtke paved the way for numerous investigations and archaeologists in the region. This book reflects her scholarship's enormous impact and lasting impression on her colleagues and the development of New England archaeology. The authors discuss various issues pertaining primarily to Native American settlement, subsistence, and technology in New England from as early as the first human occupation of the region—approximately 10,000 B.C.E.—until shortly after European colonization 400 years ago. They also present methodologies, results, analyses, interpretations, and syntheses of important regional studies, which complement and challenge existing models and knowledge. Since some of the papers address current methodological approaches, this book is relevant to other geographic areas, providing a comparative framework for evaluating archaeological research elsewhere.

Book A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying

Download or read book A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying written by Laurie Ann Guerrero and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filled with the nuanced beauty and complexity of the everyday—a pot of beans, a goat carcass, embroidered linens, a grandfather’s cancer—A Tongue in the Mouth of the Dying journeys through the inherited fear of creation and destruction. The histories of South Texas and its people unfold in Laurie Ann Guerrero’s stirring language, including the dehumanization of men and its consequences on women and children. Guerrero’s tongue becomes a palpable border, occupying those liminal spaces that both unite and divide, inviting readers to consider that which is known and unknown: the body. Guerrero explores not just the right, but the ability to speak and fight for oneself, one's children, one's community—in poems that testify how, too often, we fail to see the power reflected in the mirror.

  • Release : 2017-04-26
  • ISBN : 9781545254745
  • Pages : 244 pages

Download or read book Determining Your Legacy written by Larry Zachrich and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-26 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Determining Your Legacy" begins as a focus on how impressions are formed and the reality that they are typically fast, accurate, and long-lasting. However, the value of impressions vanishes when we realize that our perceptions of others are often biased by deceit. When our judgments are betrayed, we realize the value of genuine influences formed by long-term relationships, relatives, experienced colleagues, and spiritual leaders. Once we comprehend the power of impressions, we realize that we also communicate an impression on others. When we become aware of our influence on others around us, we may think more carefully about our actions and consider our impact on others. As we steer the development of our lasting impression, we create our legacy. "Determining Your Legacy" was written to illuminate the impact of impressions on our lives and to enhance our ability to perceive those influences. The power of impressions is revealed through real-life stories, and the significance of lasting impressions on life's decisions is clarified. Once we realize the power of genuine impressions, we may determine our lasting legacy for others as a contribution to those who follow us.

Book excerpt: From Bestselling Author Tamera Alexander Comes the Final Novel in the Sweeping Belmont Mansion Series A master violinist trained in Vienna, Rebekah Carrington manages to wheedle her way into an audition with the new maestro at the Nashville Philharmonic. But women are "far too fragile and frail" for the rigors of an orchestra, and Rebekah's hopes are swiftly dashed when the conductor--determined to leave his mark on the world of classical music--bows to public opinion. To make matters worse, Adelicia Cheatham, mistress of Belmont Mansion and Rebekah's new employer, agrees with him. Nationally acclaimed conductor Nathaniel Tate Whitcomb is Nashville's youngest orchestra leader. And despite a reluctant muse and a strange buzzing and recurring pain in his head, he must finish composing his symphony before the grand opening of the city's new symphony hall. Even more pressing, he must finish it for the one who first inspired his love of music--his dying father. As Tate's ailment worsens, he knows Rebekah can help him finish his symphony. But how can he win back her trust when he's robbed her of her dream? As music moves us to tears yet makes our hearts soar, A Note Yet Unsung captures the splendor of classical music at a time when women's hard-won strides in cultural issues changed not only world history--but the hearts of men.

Book The Power of Story

    Book Details:
  • Author : Laura Ewald
  • Publisher : Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
  • Release : 2018-04-22
  • ISBN : 9781717314772
  • Pages : 44 pages

Download or read book The Power of Story written by Laura Ewald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-22 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE POWER OF STORY is intended to give writers and storytellers a boost to their creativity by a thought-provoking look at the importance of story through history and how it might be used today to affect change in peoples hearts and minds. WE DO, AS a species, like our stories. It's in our DNA, I am convinced, to always give more than Joe Friday's "just the facts, Ma'am." We not only want to hear and tell what happened, but we also want to know the complete who, when, where, why, and how that goes along with the what... From the days of living in caves, man has presented a whole lot more than "just the facts" when talking about anything going on in the world. Even in those pictures painted in the dark, deep inside the caves of Europe and elsewhere, man was telling a story, for the artists did not only illustrate the hunt, they created a pictorial narration of what went on... The storyteller has been revered since long before we could read and write for just this reason. It was the storyteller, the bard, who kept traditions alive from one generation to the next. Their stories not only entertained; they educated. They gave us, as a people, a center and an identity. It was the storytellers, traveling from town square to village green, from stage to campfire, who told the stories that kept us connected-to one another, to our past, and to our future...And if you think the importance of story has been lost over the centuries, then you haven't attended a John Grisham book-signing event or waited in line at an opening of a new Star Wars movie...!

Book Gutenberg   s Fingerprint

Download or read book Gutenberg s Fingerprint written by Merilyn Simonds and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate narrative exploring the past, present, and future of books Four seismic shifts have rocked human communication: the invention of writing, the alphabet, mechanical type and the printing press, and digitization. Poised over this fourth transition, e-reader in one hand, perfect-bound book in the other, Merilyn Simonds — author, literary maven, and early adopter — asks herself: what is lost and what is gained as paper turns to pixel? Gutenberg’s Fingerprint trolls the past, present, and evolving future of the book in search of an answer. Part memoir and part philosophical and historical exploration, the book finds its muse in Hugh Barclay, who produces gorgeous books on a hand-operated antique letterpress. As Simonds works alongside this born-again Gutenberg, and with her son to develop a digital edition of the same book, her assumptions about reading, writing, the nature of creativity, and the value of imperfection are toppled. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 16.0px Times; -webkit-text-stroke: #000000} span.s1 {font-kerning: none} Gutenberg’s Fingerprint is a timely and fascinating book that explores the myths, inventions, and consequences of the digital shift and how we read today.

Book excerpt: In this enchanting debut novel, Galen Beckett weaves a dazzling spell of adventure and suspense, evoking a world of high magick and genteel society—a world where one young woman discovers that her modest life is far more extraordinary than she ever imagined. Of the three Lockwell sisters—romantic Lily, prophetic Rose, and studious Ivy—all agree that it’s the eldest, the book-loving Ivy, who has held the family together ever since their father’s retreat into his silent vigil in the library upstairs. Everyone blames Mr. Lockwell’s malady on his magickal studies, but Ivy alone still believes—both in magic and in its power to bring her father back. But there are others in the world who believe in magick as well. Over the years, Ivy has glimpsed them—the strangers in black topcoats and hats who appear at the door, strangers of whom their mother will never speak. Ivy once thought them secret benefactors, but now she’s not so certain. After tragedy strikes, Ivy takes a job with the reclusive Mr. Quent in a desperate effort to preserve her family. It’s only then that she discovers the fate she shares with a jaded young nobleman named Dashton Rafferdy, his ambitious friend Eldyn Garritt, and a secret society of highwaymen, revolutionaries, illusionists, and spies who populate the island nation of Altania. For there is far more to Altania than meets the eye and more to magick than mere fashion. And in the act of saving her father, Ivy will determine whether the world faces a new dawn—or an everlasting night. . . .
