Download or read book Practical Visionaries written by Pam Hirsch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-30 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of women educationists in nineteenth and early twentieth century Britain. Working with new paradigms opened up by feminist scholarship, it reveals how women leaders were determined to transform education in the quest for a better society. Previous scholarship has either neglected the contributions of these women or has misplaced them. Consequently intellectual histories of education have come to seem almost exclusively masculine. This collection shows the important role which figures such as Mary Carpenter, Barbara Leigh Smith Bodichon, Elizabeth Edwards and Maria Montessori played in the struggle to provide greater educational opportunities for women. The contributors are: Anne Bloomfield, Kevin J. Brehony, Norma Clarke, Peter Cunningham, Mary Jane Drummond, Elizabeth Edwards, Mary Hilton, Pam Hirsch, Jane Miller, Hilary Minns, Wendy Robinson, Gillian Sutherland and Ruth Watts.

Book excerpt: Artists' book. "The Practical Visionary is a collaged dialogue between Sophie Herxheimer and Chris McCabe and their luminary inspiration, William Blake. Imaginary letters between Blake and the Citizens of London, and photographs of fleeting details on Lambeth streets, create 21st-century visions parallel to Blake's mythology. These are spliced together and expanded with borrowed words from the pages of a giant bible and a tiny nonconformist self-help book. The Practical Visionary moves freely between Blake's world and ours, demonstrating why his voice is a powerful and necessary as ever."--Back cover.

Milne introduces the reader to the story of visionary work—its genesis, evolution, philosophy, and practice—and explains how a grounding in meditation, sensitive touch, and intuitive perception can lead to a remarkable unfoldment in skill development. In the second volume, Milne details the anatomy, physiology, energetics, and techniques that are the essential core of visionary craniosacral work.
