Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 0 0 Well, look at that! It’s been a long time coming. Now you will finally be able to dive into my mind and either drown or swim. YOU will see parts of me that I’ve lost and found. The love, the lust, to my heart on the ground. The insecurities but also the confidence. The need for reassurance but also no fucks given since. You may laugh or cry. You may fuck the first person that comes to mind. When you read my words, my venom shines. So sweet yet so seductive. You will love it and succumb to it. Metaphorically hypnotized. Sit back and open your mind in my world where souls unwind. Imagination has no limits here. You can fulfill your fantasies and face your deepest fear. Poetically speaking. I am poetically correct. You may want to relax. My words will have massive side effects. Everything in one. A Walking Contradiction. You will be back when you’re done.

Book excerpt: This second installment of my poetry takes you through as what I mentioned in my acknowledgements “spiritual growth.” My thoughtshave changed to some degree; I am seeing things in a transparent way. The title “Walking Contradiction” is inspired by the perfection I reach for, yet fall short of. I am nothing more than a product of what society has taught meme to be. A “nigga” striving for a life the privileged kids were blessed with while still fighting past and present demons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first biography of the man Vanity Fair described as “the philosopher poet of character acting.” After a series of minor parts in forgettable westerns, Harry Dean Stanton gradually began to get film roles that showcased his laid-back acting style, appearing in Cool Hand Luke, Kelly’s Heroes, The Godfather: Part II, and Alien. He became a headliner in the eighties?starring in Wim Wenders’s moving Paris, Texas and Alex Cox’s Repo Man?but it was his extraordinary skill as a character actor that established him as a revered cult figure and kept him in demand throughout his career. Here, Joseph B. Atkins unwinds Stanton’s enigmatic persona, shedding light on his early life in West Irvine, Kentucky, and exploring his difficult relationship with his Baptist parents, his service in the Navy, and the events that inspired him to drop out of college and pursue acting. Atkins also chronicles Stanton’s early years in California, describing how he honed his craft at the renowned Pasadena Playhouse before breaking into television and movies. In addition to examining his acclaimed body of work, Atkins explores Harry Dean Stanton as a Hollywood legend, following his years rooming with Jack Nicholson, partying with David Crosby and Mama Cass, jogging with Bob Dylan, and playing poker with John Huston. Stanton is often remembered for his crowd-pleasing roles in movies like Pretty in Pink or Escape from New York, but this impassioned biography illuminates the entirety of his incredible sixty-year career, drawing on interviews with the actor’s friends, family, and colleagues.

Download or read book Johnny Cash and the Paradox of American Identity written by Leigh H. Edwards and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2009-02-25 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his career, Johnny Cash has been depicted—and has depicted himself—as a walking contradiction: social protestor and establishment patriot, drugged wildman and devout Christian crusader, rebel outlaw hillbilly thug and elder statesman. Leigh H. Edwards explores the allure of this paradoxical image and its cultural significance. She argues that Cash embodies irresolvable contradictions of American identity that reflect foundational issues in the American experience, such as the tensions between freedom and patriotism, individual rights and nationalism, the sacred and the profane. She illustrates how this model of ambivalence is a vital paradigm for American popular music, and for American identity in general. Making use of sources such as Cash's autobiographies, lyrics, music, liner notes, and interviews, Edwards pays equal attention to depictions of Cash by others, such as Vivian Cash's publication of his letters to her, documentaries and music journalism about him, Walk the Line, and fan club materials found in the archives at the Country Music Foundation in Nashville, to create a full portrait of Cash and his significance as a cultural icon.
Download or read book Thomas Jefferson written by Christopher Hitchens and published by HarperCollins UK. This book was released on 2007 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitchens brings the character of Jefferson to life as a man of his time and also as a symbolic figure beyond it. Conflicted by power, Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence and acted as Minister to France yet yearned for a quieter career in the Virginia legislature. Predicting that slavery would shape the future of America's development, this professed proponent of emancipation continued to own human property. He negotiated the Louisiana Purchase with France, doubling the size of the nation, and authorized the Lewis and Clark expedition, opening up the American frontier. The Barbary War, a lesser-known chapter of his political career, led to the building of the U.S. Navy and the fortification of America's reputation regarding national defense. In the background is the fledgling nation's struggle for independence, formed in the crucible of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, and, in its shadow, the deformation of that struggle in the excesses of the French Revolution.

Download or read book The Law of Non Contradiction written by Graham Priest and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law of Non-Contradiction-that no contradiction can be true-has been a seemingly unassailable dogma since the work of Aristotle, in Book Gamma of the Metaphysics. It is an assumption challenged from a variety of angles in this collection of original papers. Twenty-three of the world's leading experts investigate the 'law', considering arguments for and against it and discussing methodological issues that arise whenever we question the legitimacy of logical principles. The result is a balanced inquiry into a venerable principle of logic, one that raises questions at the very centre of logic itself. The aim of this volume is to present a comprehensive debate about the Law of Non-Contradiction, from discussions as to how the law is to be understood, to reasons for accepting or re-thinking the law, and to issues that raise challenges to the law, such as the Liar Paradox, and a 'dialetheic' resolution of that paradox. One of the editors contributes an introduction which surveys the issues and serves to frame the debate. This collection will be of interest to anyone working on philosophical logic, and to anyone who has ever wondered about the status of logical laws and about how one might proceed to mount arguments for or against them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 bill crossman’s first book is one-man’s approach to his third act of life. After retiring from a career in education, he wanted to spend his time chasing after shiny objects. What has emerged is a voice he’s spent a lifetime chasing after to find. The collection of short stories, character sketches, and situational memoirs have produced a portrait of life in the twenty-first century in Seattle’s Fremont District. Eighteen windows in his front door open to the world to the center of the universe in the Artist’s Republic of Fremont. Now look in those windows to this Fremonster penning these tales of his experiences living among the denizens at the foot of Francis Avenue in the Artist’s Republic of Fremont (ARF). Crossman and his fellow Fremonsters, all with some connection to artists and peculiars, have embraced the neighborhood’s motto “De Libertas Quirkas” or the “Freedom to be peculiar.” Crossman’s detailed and thoughtful descriptions of his fellow denizens leave judgment to the reader to decide the real character of these denizens. From the guerrilla gardener to the Speed Queen Laundromat, the vibrant street scene, nighttime revelers, and the reveled in the booming city, Seattle, in the teen years of the twenty-first century. 1
