Book excerpt: Nestled in the Great North Woods of New Hampshire, Dixville, Colebrook, Columbia, and Stewartstown are in a region of deep forests, grand mountains, and rich river valleys. This wooded area was traversed by Native Americans whose trails paved the way for settlers to follow. At the turn of the 20th century, these small communities were teeming with industry that included logging, farming, manufacturing, and tourism. The economy was further supported with the arrival of the railroad. Dixville, Colebrook, Columbia, and Stewartstown chronicles and celebrates the movers and shakers of these small New England towns. Today, the region draws thousands of annual visitors for hiking, boating, snowmobiling, and other outdoor recreation. Dixville is the home of the historic Balsams Grand Resort, which has provided rest and recreation for over 100 years. Colebrook, with its many shops and arts center, remains the commercial heart for Stewartstown and Columbia.

Book Deleuze  A Guide for the Perplexed

Download or read book Deleuze A Guide for the Perplexed written by Claire Colebrook and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2006-03-23 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuum's Guides for the Perplexed are clear, concise and accessible introductions to thinkers, writers and subjects that students and readers can find especially challenging. Concentrating specifically on what it is that makes the subject difficult to fathom, these books explain and explore key themes and ideas, guiding the reader towards a thorough understanding of demanding material. Gilles Deleuze is undoubtedly one of the seminal figures in modern Continental thought. However, his philosophy makes considerable demands on the student; his major works make for challenging reading and require engagement with some difficult concepts and complex systems of thought. Deleuze: A Guide for the Perplexed is the ideal text for anyone who needs to get to grips with Deleuzian thought, offering a thorough, yet approachable account of the central themes in his work: sense; univocity; intuition; singularity; difference. His ideas related to language, politics, ethics and consciousness are explored in detail and - most importantly - clarified. The book also locates Deleuze in the context of his philosophical influences and antecedents and highlights the implications of his ideas for a range of disciplines from politics to film theory. Throughout, close attention is paid to Deleuze's most influential publications, including the landmark texts The Logic of Sense and Difference and Repetition.

  • Release : 2015-08-22
  • ISBN : 1611688191
  • Pages : 346 pages

Download or read book In the Evil Day written by Richard Adams Carey and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2015-08-22 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the afternoon of August 19, 1997, John Harrigan-owner and publisher of the News and Sentinel newspaper in Colebrook, New Hampshire-arrived at his building to find the woman he loved lying dead in the parking lot. Lawyer Vickie Bunnell had been shot and killed by a local carpenter wielding an assault rifle. By then, three more people were already dead or dying. More mayhem was to ensue in an afternoon of plot twists too improbable for a novel. The roots of the incident stretch back twenty-five years, with tendrils deep in the history of New England's North Country. These bloody events shocked America and made headlines across the world. Hundreds of local citizens became unwilling players in the drama-friends and colleagues of the dead, men and women who were themselves real or potential targets, along with their neighbors in law enforcement-but the town and its inhabitants were never passive victims. From the first shot fired that day, they remained courageously determined to survive. This is the story of that town, those people, and that day. In the Evil Day is a moving portrait of small-town life and familiar characters forever changed by sudden violence.

Book Understanding Deleuze

Download or read book Understanding Deleuze written by Claire Colebrook and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The best introduction to Deleuze, and to the collective writings of Deleuze and Guattari, available yet! Claire Colebrook has produced a truly accessible pathway into the labyrinthine enchantments offered for contemporary thought by Deleuzianism, making concepts clear, showing their political and theoretical complexity, elaborating their social and artistic relevance. A wonderful, lucid opening onto the new worlds of Deleuze.' Elizabeth Grosz, Rutgers University 'A wonderfully clear introduction to key Deleuzian concepts and to their effectiveness in fields ranging from ethics and politics to cinema, literary and cultural studies. Claire Colebrook provides a series of effortless transitions from Deleuze's philosophical concerns (eg: difference, representation, desire and affect) to concrete problems in a variety of fields. This book is an excellent guide to an important body of critical thought.' Paul Patton, Professor of Philosophy, University of NSW A genuine attempt to think differently, Gilles Deleuze's work challenges, provokes and frustrates. Surprisingly practical as well as innovative, it is now being seen as a 'must read' for students and scholars across the humanities and social sciences. Claire Colebrook's Understanding Deleuze offers a comprehensive and very accessible introduction to his work. hink differently. It is built on the notion of an immanent ethics: how can we have a political and ethical theory without some external foundation such as the subject or morality? He argues that the only way we can do this is with a theory of the virtual, and he sees all life (not just cyberculture) as virtual. Deleuze goes further than Foucault or Derrida in questioning the boundaries of the subject and knowledge. For Deleuze perception extends beyond the human, to animals, machines and microorganisms. Deleuze's writing is challenging and hard to read, and so far there is no introduction to his work. Claire Colebrook's primer offers an accessible introduction to the whole Deleuzian oeuvre, including the work he did with Guattari.

Book Deleuze and the Meaning of Life

Download or read book Deleuze and the Meaning of Life written by Claire Colebrook and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-21 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intensification of interest in Deleuze over the last decade has coincided with the end of the linguistic paradigm in both continental and analytic philosophy. Indeed, the division between the two traditions appears to be closing and the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze seems to be crucial to this convergence, as he is both indebted to the phenomenological tradition at the same time as he operates with concepts drawn from the sciences. Claire Colebrook explores these ideas and offers a new and alternative assessment of Deleuze's contribution to philosophy. She argues that while Deleuze does draw upon sciences that explain the emergence of language, art and philosophy, his own thought is distinguished by a discontinuist thesis: systems may emerge from tendencies of life but always have the capacity to operate without reference to their original aim. Colebrook makes new claims regarding how Deleuze's philosophy might be used to read contemporary art and thus offers an original and crucial contribution to the Deleuzian debate.

Book Posthumous Life

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jami Weinstein
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2017-03-28
  • ISBN : 0231544324
  • Pages : 540 pages

Download or read book Posthumous Life written by Jami Weinstein and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Posthumous Life launches critical life studies: a mode of inquiry that neither endorses nor dismisses a wave of recent "turns" toward life, matter, vitality, inhumanity, animality, and the real. Questioning the nature and limits of life in the natural sciences, the essays in this volume examine the boundaries and significance of the human and the humanities in the wake of various redefinitions of what counts as life. They explore the possibility of theorizing life without assuming it to be either a simple substrate or an always-mediated effect of culture and difference. Posthumous Life provides new ways of thinking about animals, plants, humans, difference, sexuality, race, gender, identity, the earth, and the future.
