Book Flying Free

Download or read book Flying Free written by Cecilia Aragon and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The daughter of a Chilean father and a Filipina mother, Cecilia Rodriguez Aragon grew up as a shy, timid child in a small midwestern town during the 1960s. Targeted by school bullies and dismissed by many of her teachers, she worried that people would find out the truth: that she was INTF. Incompetent. Nerd. Terrified. Failure. This feeling stayed with her well into her twenties when she was told that “girls can’t do science” or “women just don’t know how to handle machines.” Yet in the span of just six years, Cecilia became the first Latina pilot to secure a place on the United States Unlimited Aerobatic Team and earn the right to represent her country at the Olympics of aviation, the World Aerobatic Championships. How did she do it? Using mathematical techniques to overcome her fear, Cecilia performed at air shows in front of millions of people. She jumped out of airplanes and taught others how to fly. She learned how to fund-raise and earn money to compete at the world level. She worked as a test pilot and contributed to the design of experimental airplanes, crafting curves of metal and fabric that shaped air to lift inanimate objects high above the earth. And best of all, she surprised everyone by overcoming the prejudices people held about her because of her race and her gender. Flying Free is the story of how Cecilia Aragon broke free from expectations and rose above her own limits by combining her passion for flying with math and logic in unexpected ways. You don’t have to be a math whiz or a science geek to learn from her story. You just have to want to soar.

Book The Crown of Aragon

Download or read book The Crown of Aragon written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crown of Aragon. A Singular Mediterranean Empire recovers the history of an empire which was of great importance in the late medieval Mediterranean, but which has since been relegated almost to oblivion by the course of history. The Crown of Aragon was a Mediterranean crossroads: between west and east for the economy, and between north and south for culture and religion, drawing in many different peoples, covering Iberia to Greece. A new vision of the Crown of Aragon as a framework of overlapping identities facilitates its historiographical recovery, showcased in the chapters of this volume which analyse the economy, institutions, social evolution, political strategy and cultural expression in literature and art of the Crown of Aragon. Contributors are David Abulafia, Lola Badia, Xavier Barral-i-Altet, Pere Benito, Maria Bonet, Jesús Brufal, Alessandra Cioppi, Damien Coulon, Luciano Gallinari, Isabel Grifoll, Adam J. Kosto, Esther Martí-Setañés, Sebastiana Nocco, Antoni Riera, Flocel Sabaté and Antoni Simon.

Book Catherine of Aragon

    Book Details:
  • Author : Theresa Earenfight
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 2021-12-14
  • ISBN : 0271091924
  • Pages : 326 pages

Download or read book Catherine of Aragon written by Theresa Earenfight and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catherine of Aragon is an elusive subject. Despite her status as a Spanish infanta, Princess of Wales, and Queen of England, few of her personal letters have survived, and she is obscured in the contemporary royal histories. In this evocative biography, Theresa Earenfight presents an intimate and engaging portrait of Catherine told through the objects that she left behind. A pair of shoes, a painting, a rosary, a fur-trimmed baby blanket—each of these things took meaning from the ways Catherine experienced and perceived them. Through an examination of the inventories listing the few possessions Catherine owned at her death, Earenfight follows the arc of Catherine’s life: first as a coddled child in Castile, then as a young adult alone in England after the death of her first husband, a devoted wife and doting mother, a patron of the arts and of universities, and, finally, a dear friend to the women and men who stood by her after Henry VIII set her aside in favor of another woman. Based on traces and fragments, these portraits of Catherine are interpretations of a life lived five centuries ago. Earenfight creates a compelling picture of a multifaceted, intelligent woman and a queen of England. Engagingly written, this cultural and emotional biography of Catherine brings us closer to understanding her life from her own perspective.

Golden-haired, sixteen years old, she was sent to England to marry the future king, Arthur, Prince of Wales. But when Arthur died a few months after their wedding, Katherine's bright future was suddenly eclipsed. It took his younger brother Henry VIII eight long years to do the honorable thing and marry her.

Alice Starmore looks to historical female figures of the Tudor Dynasty as inspiration for her stunning knitwear, and her modernization of traditional Fair Isle and Aran patterns has created a sensation in the knitting world. Through garment design, Starmore and her daughter Jade tell the stories of fourteen women connected with the Tudor dynasty. They weave a narrative around the known facts of their subjects' lives using photography, art, and the only medium through which the Tudor women could leave a lasting physical record in their world — needlework. Tudor Roses includes fourteen patterns for sweaters and other wearables that follow the chronological order of the Tudor dynasty. A different model portrays each of the Tudor women, from Elizabeth Woodville, grandmother of Henry VIII, through Mary, Queen of Scots. The stunning design and photography appeals to knitters seeking designs that offer an attractive balance of historic and modern elements.

Book Paris Peasant

Download or read book Paris Peasant written by Aragon and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paris Peasant (1926) is one of the central works of Surrealism. Unconventional in form and fiercely modern, Aragon uses the city of Paris as a framework interlacing text with the city's ephemera: cafe menus, maps, monument inscriptions, newspaper cuttings and the lives of its citizens. No one could have been a more astute detector of the unwanted in all its forms; no one else could have been carried away by such intoxicating reveries about a sort of secret life of the city...' Andre Breton'

Book Glow of Our Sweat

  • Author : Francisco Aragón
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2010
  • ISBN : 9780979129131
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Glow of Our Sweat written by Francisco Aragón and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With poems, translations, and an essay, Francisco Aragón enacts a dialogue between poetry and prose, memory and imagination, self and other, as he deftly begins to un- cover a road where a gay, Latino, and cosmopolitan poet fully inhabits the world. More than a collection of poems, Glow of Our Sweat is a community of poems, one where multiple voices and genres mingle, converse, and commiserate. ''Reading Francisco Aragón's new collection of poetry and prose is like taking a bite of a perfectly ripened apple -- a fresh, sensual, subtly-flavored and long-lingering experience. His poems possess the meditative quality of one who has sat for a long time with memory and then gracefully distilled it into language. And what language -- vivid, unexpected and alive! His own work and his translations are a seamless whole documenting the life of the body, heart and soul. Complementing these is a moving essay about his journey toward integrating his homosexuality into his creative and public life as a poet.'' --Michael Nava six time Lambda Literary Award winner; recipient of the Whitehead Award for Lifetime Achievement in Gay and Lesbian Literature ''Francisco Aragón conceives his art making as interruption and interlude. Glow of Our Sweat is composed of finely crafted song-forms equipped to suspend and infer. With elegant modulation energizing images into sharp-edged focus, the translator in Aragón knows that surfaces of speech are a methodology of skin over which cultural histories can either resist or give way. His poetry aligns with the works of Rubén Darío, Federico García Lorca, and Francisco X. Alarcón--translated into the author's own idiom on familiar terms with Jack Spicer, among a few others. The concluding prose piece, "Flyer, Closet, Poem," provides a narrative of suppleness to situations that claim our sexual selfhood. It's a poetics coupled to community, and so to transformation of the world's body as some syllables are given to touch.''--Roberto Tejada author of Exposition Park (poems) and National Camera: Photography and Mexico's Image Environment. ''If imitation is flattery, influence is praise. Aragón, in this charming, vulnerable collection, refers to his series of probing translations as 'versions.' Much more than homage, these poems are siesta and question, old friends you recognize but whose names flirt with your sensibilities and continue breathing. Bravo.'' --Quraysh Ali Lansana author of They Shall Run: Harriet Tubman Poems ''Francisco Aragón's elegant mix of original poems, translations, imitations, and memoir makes for a collection that shows what an impressive writer he is in all of his chosen forms.''--John Matthias author of Kedging

Book War  Government  and Society in the Medieval Crown of Aragon

Download or read book War Government and Society in the Medieval Crown of Aragon written by Donald J. Kagay and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this collection of articles by Donald J. Kagay is the effect of the expansion of royal government on the societies of the medieval Crown of Aragon. He shows how the extensive episodes of warfare during the 13th and 14th centuries served as a catalyst for the extension of the king's law and government across the varied topography and political landscape of eastern Spain. In the long conflicts against Spanish Islam and neighbouring Christian states, the relationships of royal to customary law, of monarchical to aristocratic power, and of Christian to Jewish and Muslim populations, all became issues that marked the transition of the medieval Crown of Aragon to the early modern states of Catalonia, Aragon and Valencia, and finally to the modern Spanish nation.
