Download or read book Victorian Jamaica written by Tim Barringer and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-10 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victorian Jamaica explores the extraordinary surviving archive of visual representation and material objects to provide a comprehensive account of Jamaican society during Queen Victoria's reign over the British Empire, from 1837 to 1901. In their analyses of material ranging from photographs of plantation laborers and landscape paintings to cricket team photographs, furniture, and architecture, as well as a wide range of texts, the contributors trace the relationship between black Jamaicans and colonial institutions; contextualize race within ritual and performance; and outline how material and visual culture helped shape the complex politics of colonial society. By narrating Victorian history from a Caribbean perspective, this richly illustrated volume—featuring 270 full-color images—offers a complex and nuanced portrait of Jamaica that expands our understanding of the wider history of the British Empire and Atlantic world during this period.

Download or read book Hawk Moths of Jamaica written by Thomas W. Turner and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jamaica was initially one of a few locations in the New World where early collections of hawk moths were made by visiting naturalists including Sir Hans Sloane, Philip Gosse, and natural history illustrator Luke Robins. From this material several species of hawk moths, new to science, were first described by Carolus Linnaeus (1707-1778), Dru Drury (1724-1803), Johan Phillip Fabricius (1745-1808) and others. In the subsequent centuries the known number of Jamaican hawk moth species has gradually grown with new records noted in individual descriptions or in species lists. However, there has been no single illustrated publication specifically devoted to Jamaica’s hawk moths. Our book, “Hawk Moths of Jamaica”, for the first time provides photographs, descriptions, and distribution maps of all species recorded from the island.

Download or read book Environmental Postcolonialism written by Shubhanku Kochar and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2022 Choice Reviews Outstanding Academic Title Environmental Postcolonialism: A Literary Response is an academic investigation of the environmental repercussions of colonial destruction. This volume addresses the complex interplay between postcolonialism and environmental discourse through literature produced in the ex-colonies. This literature is read from the standpoint of ex-colonies within their human and non-human context. The primary objective of this volume is to scrutinize environmental concerns in the light of postcolonial theory, and so it examines works of art from the twin perspective of eco-criticism and postcolonialism which illuminates and underscores how colonizers destroyed and interfered with both nature and culture. Through discussing the intersecting layers of ecocriticism and postcolonial criticism, the volume gestures to new directions and generates a hopeful vision of a decolonized world.

As does any other child, she attends kindergarten but her life begins developing when she attends Notre Dame Preparatory School for Girls beginning in the Spring of 1990. It is here that she begins meeting girls just like her, but Alexis is very home bodied, that is, she isn't allowed to attend many parties as her parents have spoiled her to an extent that she relies heavily on them for nearly everything, and yet she does not do the things that can bring shame and embarrassment to them. Her best friend in high school is Janelle Dade-Wexler who is like a sister to her and they experience many things including boys, but they do not let the boys "experience" them and Alexis' mother sees to that and is much like a mother to Janelle as she is constantly at Alexis' house.
