Download or read book Eminent Outlaws written by Christopher Bram and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “standard text of the defining era of gay literati” tells the cultural history of the interconnected lives of the 20th century's most influential gay writers (Philadelphia Inquirer). In the years following World War II a group of gay writers established themselves as major cultural figures in American life. Truman Capote, the enfant terrible, whose finely wrought fiction and nonfiction captured the nation's imagination. Gore Vidal, the wry, withering chronicler of politics, sex, and history. Tennessee Williams, whose powerful plays rocketed him to the top of the American theater. James Baldwin, the harrowingly perceptive novelist and social critic. Christopher Isherwood, the English novelist who became a thoroughly American novelist. And the exuberant Allen Ginsberg, whose poetry defied censorship and exploded minds. Together, their writing introduced America to gay experience and sensibility, and changed our literary culture. But the change was only beginning. A new generation of gay writers followed, taking more risks and writing about their sexuality more openly. Edward Albee brought his prickly iconoclasm to the American theater. Edmund White laid bare his own life in stylized, autobiographical works. Armistead Maupin wove a rich tapestry of the counterculture, queer and straight. Mart Crowley brought gay men's lives out of the closet and onto the stage. And Tony Kushner took them beyond the stage, to the center of American ideas. With authority and humor, Christopher Bram weaves these men's ambitions, affairs, feuds, loves, and appetites into a single sweeping narrative. Chronicling over fifty years of momentous change-from civil rights to Stonewall to AIDS and beyond. Eminent Outlaws is an inspiring, illuminating tale: one that reveals how the lives of these men are crucial to understanding the social and cultural history of the American twentieth century.

Download or read book Can Sexual Acts between or Among Consenting Adults Be Considered an Act Discreditable to the Profession Under Aicpa Code of Professional Conduct Rule 501 A Philosophical Look at a Practical Ethical Question written by Robert W. McGee and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rule 501 of the AICPA's Code of Professional Conduct as well as the codes of ethics of other state, national and international accounting organizations prohibits acts that are discreditable to the profession. There are several problems with this rule. For one, it is self-serving and does more to protect the profession than the public. Many kinds of personal conduct might subject an accountant to punishment for actions that do not involve fraud or the violation of rights. Another problem is vagueness. There are few guidelines to clarify what might constitute a discreditable act. Consensual sexual acts is one such area. The author concludes that accounting organizations should not engage in policing the moral conduct of their members unless that conduct adversely affects a client or a segment of the investing public.
Download or read book Political Judgement written by Ronald Beiner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1983. One of the basic capacities of man as a political being is his faculty of judgement. Yet for all the books on concepts like freedom, equality and authority, surprisingly little attention has been given to this topic in the tradition of Western political thought. What is the nature of political judgement? What endows us, as human beings, with the ability to make reasonable judgements about human affairs and to judge the common world we share with others? By what means to we secure validity for our judgements? What are the underlying conditions of this human capacity, and what implications does it have the understanding of politics? These questions, central as they are to any reflection on politics have rarely been addressed in a systematic way. This book examines Kant’s concept of taste and Aristotle’s concept of prudence, as well as recent works of political philosophy by Arendt, Gadamer and Habermas, all crucially influenced by Kant and Aristotle.

Download or read book Sexual Partnering Sexual Practices and Health written by Sana Loue and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-07-03 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual risk behaviors have inspired profound ideas and effective teamwork. But as the early history of AIDS demonstrates, when sexual practice is part of the equation, the same bold thinkers may be stymied, or just silent. Safe sex and monogamy have been proposed as answers to a gamut of social problems, but there is frequently little consensus on what these terms mean. Sexual Partnering, Sexual Practices, and Health replaces myth and stereotype with meticulously documented findings on real people and their behaviors in their social, environmental, and individual contexts. Author Sana Loue examines the range of partnerships not only in the U.S. but also Europe and the developing world, focusing on both consenting relationships and exploitative sexual interactions: - Varieties of monogamy between consenting adults - Relationships involving multiple adult partners - Incest, pedophilia, and child marriage - Sex work, trafficking, and pornography - Fetishes and related behaviors All chapters cogently address the health issues that arise from these arrangements, concluding with implications for research, prevention, and intervention. Throughout, Loue argues for a common language across disciplines and challenges her readers—therapists, health care providers, and policymakers alike—to rethink their assumptions about clients, their health needs, and the communities they represent. "Dr. Loue's work is a truly significant scholarly contribution to a topic too often characterized by pseudo-science and ideological distortions. "Sexual Partnering, Sexual Practices, and Health" should prove an invaluable resource for researchers and community practitioners alike in helping understand dimensions of sexual practice, and designing more effective approaches to sexual health and violence prevention." -Earl Pike, Executive Director, AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland
Download or read book Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again written by Katherine Angel and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative, elegantly written analysis of female desire, consent, and sexuality in the age of MeToo Women are in a bind. In the name of consent and empowerment, they must proclaim their desires clearly and confidently. Yet sex researchers suggest that women’s desire is often slow to emerge. And men are keen to insist that they know what women—and their bodies—want. Meanwhile, sexual violence abounds. How can women, in this environment, possibly know what they want? And why do we expect them to? In this elegant, searching book—spanning science and popular culture; pornography and literature; debates on Me-Too, consent and feminism—Katherine Angel challenges our assumptions about women’s desire. Why, she asks, should they be expected to know their desires? And how do we take sexual violence seriously, when not knowing what we want is key to both eroticism and personhood? In today’s crucial moment of renewed attention to violence and power, Angel urges that we remake our thinking about sex, pleasure, and autonomy without any illusions about perfect self-knowledge. Only then will we fulfil Michel Foucault’s teasing promise, in 1976, that “tomorrow sex will be good again.”
Download or read book Lectures on Kant s Political Philosophy written by Hannah Arendt and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-12-10 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hannah Arendt's last philosophical work was an intended three-part project entitled The Life of the Mind. Unfortunately, Arendt lived to complete only the first two parts, Thinking and Willing. Of the third, Judging, only the title page, with epigraphs from Cato and Goethe, was found after her death. As the titles suggest, Arendt conceived of her work as roughly parallel to the three Critiques of Immanuel Kant. In fact, while she began work on The Life of the Mind, Arendt lectured on "Kant's Political Philosophy," using the Critique of Judgment as her main text. The present volume brings Arendt's notes for these lectures together with other of her texts on the topic of judging and provides important clues to the likely direction of Arendt's thinking in this area.
