Book excerpt: ""Winter Season"" offers a fresh perspective on the coldest time of year, exploring how this transformative period affects our well-being, social bonds, and relationship with the environment. By weaving together insights from chronobiology, environmental psychology, and cultural studies, the book reveals how winter's unique characteristics—from shorter days to holiday celebrations—can be leveraged for personal growth and community connection. The book progresses through three enlightening sections, beginning with an examination of how reduced daylight and temperature changes affect human behavior. It then delves into winter celebrations across cultures, revealing how traditional festivals have historically fostered community resilience. Notable insights include the evolutionary connection between winter adaptations and modern wellness practices, and the surprising psychological benefits of embracing rather than merely enduring the season. What sets this work apart is its holistic approach to winter living, combining ancient wisdom with contemporary environmental stewardship. Through accessible language and practical applications, readers learn evidence-based strategies for maintaining physical and mental wellness during winter months, while gaining a deeper appreciation for winter ecosystems. The book challenges negative perceptions of winter, instead presenting it as a powerful catalyst for personal development and sustainable living, complete with actionable guidelines for creating meaningful winter rituals and celebrations that respect both tradition and environmental consciousness.

Download or read book The Seasons written by Luke Fischer and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the seasons have been a perennial theme in literature and art, their significance for philosophy and environmental theory has remained largely unexplored. This pioneering book demonstrates the ways in which inquiry into the seasons reveals new and illuminating perspectives for philosophy, environmental thought, anthropology, cultural studies, aesthetics, poetics, and literary criticism. The Seasons opens up new avenues for research in these fields and provides a valuable resource for teachers and students of the environmental humanities. The innovative essays herein address a wide range of seasonal cultures and geographies, from the traditional Western model of the four seasons––spring, summer, fall, and winter––to the Indigenous seasons of Australia and the Arctic. Exemplifying the crucial importance of interdisciplinary research, The Seasons makes a compelling case for the relevance of the seasons to our daily lives, scientific understanding, diverse cultural practices, and politics.

Download or read book Dance Hall Days written by Randy McBee and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2000-11-01 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of commercialized leisure coincided with the arrival of millions of immigrants to America's cities. Conflict was inevitable as older generations attempted to preserve their traditions, values, and ethnic identities, while the young sought out the cheap amusements and sexual freedom which the urban landscape offered. At immigrant picnics, social clubs, and urban dance halls, Randy McBee discovers distinct and highly contested gender lines, proving that the battle between the ages was also one between the sexes. Free from their parents and their strict rules governing sexual conduct, working women took advantage of their time in dance halls to challenge conventional gender norms. They routinely passed certain men over for dances, refused escorts home, and embraced the sensual and physical side of dance to further accentuate their superior skills and ability on the dance floor. Most men felt threatened by women's displays of empowerment and took steps to thwart the changes taking place. Accustomed to street corners, poolrooms, saloons, and other all-male get-togethers, working men tried to transform the dance hall into something that resembled these familiar hangouts. McBee also finds that men frequently abandoned the commercial dance hall for their own clubs, set up in the basements of tenement flats. In these hangouts, working men established rules governing intimacy and leisure that allowed them to regulate the behavior of the women who attended club events. The collective manner in which they behaved not only affected the organization of commercial leisure but also men and women's struggles with and against one another to define the meaning of leisure, sexuality, intimacy, and even masculinity.
