Book Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa

Download or read book Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa written by Hans Reihling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Affective Health and Masculinities in South Africa explores how different masculinities modulate substance use, interpersonal violence, suicidality, and AIDS as well as recovery cross-culturally. With a focus on three male protagonists living in very distinct urban areas of Cape Town, this comparative ethnography shows that men's struggles to become invulnerable increase vulnerability. Through an analysis of masculinities as social assemblages, the study shows how affective health problems are tied to modern individualism rather than African 'tradition' that has become a clichâe in Eurocentric gender studies. Affective health is conceptualized as a balancing act between autonomy and connectivity that after colonialism and apartheid has become compromised through the imperative of self-reliance. This book provides a rare perspective on young men's vulnerability in everyday life that may affect the reader and spark discussion about how masculinities in relationships shape physical and psychological health. Moreover, it shows how men change in the face of distress in ways that may look different than global health and gender transformative approaches envision. Thick descriptions of actual events over the life course make the study accessible to both graduate and undergraduate students in the social sciences. Contributing to current debates on mental health and masculinity, the volume will be of interest to scholars from a number of disciplines including anthropology, gender studies, African studies, psychology and global health"--

  • Publisher : Arte Publico Press
  • Release : 1992-01-01
  • ISBN : 9781611922561
  • Pages : 204 pages

Download or read book The Rag Doll Plagues written by Alejandro Morales and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mysterious plague is decimating the population of colonial Mexico. One of His MajestyÍs highest physicians is dispatched from Spain to bring the latest advances in medical science to the backward peoples of the New World capital. Here begins the cyclical tale of man battling the unknown, of science confronting the eternally indifferent forces of nature. Morales takes us on a trip through ancient and future civilizations, through exotic but all-too-familiar cultures, to a final confrontation with our own ethics and world views. In later chapters, the colonial physician finds his successors as they once again engage in life or death struggles, attempting to balance their own hopes, desires and loves with the good society and the state. Book II of the novel takes place in modern-day southern California, and Book III in a futuristic technocratic confederation known as Lamex. In the tradition of Latin American born novelist, Alejandro Morales is one of the finest representatives of magic realism in the English language. In The Rag Doll Plagues, Morales creates a many layered fictional world, taking us on an entertaining and thought-provoking safari thorough lands, times, peoples and ideas never before encountered or presented in this manner. But ultimately, this valuable trip leads to a reacquaintance with our own society and its moral vision.

Book T  S  Eliot and the Cultural Divide

Download or read book T S Eliot and the Cultural Divide written by David E. Chinitz and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modernist poet T. S. Eliot has been applauded and denounced for decades as a staunch champion of high art and an implacable opponent of popular culture. But Eliot's elitism was never what it seemed. T. S. Eliot and the Cultural Divide refurbishes this great writer for the twenty-first century, presenting him as the complex figure he was, an artist attentive not only to literature but to detective fiction, vaudeville theater, jazz, and the songs of Tin Pan Alley. David Chinitz argues that Eliot was productively engaged with popular culture in some form at every stage of his career, and that his response to it, as expressed in his poetry, plays, and essays, was ambivalent rather than hostile. He shows that American jazz, for example, was a major influence on Eliot's poetry during its maturation. He discusses Eliot's surprisingly persistent interest in popular culture both in such famous works as The Waste Land and in such lesser-known pieces as Sweeney Agonistes. And he traces Eliot's long, quixotic struggle to close the widening gap between high art and popular culture through a new type of public art: contemporary popular verse drama. What results is a work that will persuade adherents and detractors alike to return to Eliot and find in him a writer who liked a good show, a good thriller, and a good tune, as well as a "great" poem.

Book A la chasse avec Hemingway

    Book Details:
  • Author : Hilary Hemingway
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2000
  • ISBN : 9782259192101
  • Pages : 261 pages

Download or read book A la chasse avec Hemingway written by Hilary Hemingway and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilary Hemingway hérite un jour de son père Leicester, frère cadet d'Ernest, une précieuse cassette audio oubliée dans les archives de sa mère. Cette cassette contient une série de récits de chasse contés au coin du feu à un universitaire venu recueillir ses confidences. Hilary décide alors de retranscrire fidèlement ces histoires inédites, pittoresques et savoureuses, en les liant à ses propres souvenirs. Chasseur et écrivain comme son frère, Leicester évoque ici avec un grand sens de l'humour les aventures incroyables qu'Ernest et lui ont vécues aux quatre coins du monde : une stupéfiante chasse nocturne au crocodile où Leicester abandonna in extremis son arme aux crocs meurtriers d'un grand saurin, un campement bombardé de pierres par des babouins particulièrement agressifs ou, encore, la capture au lasso dans des conditions rocambolesques d'autruches sauvages en Afrique. En filigrane de ces récits hauts en couleur, où l'on retrouve avec bonheur les célèbres traditions des Hemingway - la chasse, la famille et l'art de conter -, la jeune Hilary lève aussi avec pudeur le voile sur la difficulté d'appartenir à une famille légendaire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quand le terrain fut libre, je me mis sur un genou, vis le koudou à travers l'ouverture, m'émerveillant de sa taille, et puis me rappelant que cela ne devait pas avoir d'importance, que c'était la même chose que n'importe quel coup de feu, je vis la perle centrée exactement où elle devait être, juste au-dessous de l'épaule, et je pressai sur la détente. Au bruit, il bondit et entra dans le fourré, mais je savais que je l'avais touché. Je tirai sur du gris qui se montrait entre les arbres, tandis qu' il entrait dans le bois et que M'Cola criait "Piga ! Piga ! " pour dire : " Il est touché ! Il est touché ! "

Download or read book Paris est une f te written by Ernest Hemingway and published by Editions Gallimard. This book was released on 2012-10-24T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de l’été 1957, Hemingway commença à travailler sur les "Vignettes parisiennes", comme il appelait alors Paris est une fête. Il y travailla à Cuba et à Ketchum, et emporta même le manuscrit avec lui en Espagne pendant l’été 59, puis à Paris, à l’automne de cette même année. Le livre, qui resta inachevé, fut publié de manière posthume en 1964. Pendant les trois années, ou presque, qui s’écoulent entre la mort de l’auteur et la première publication, le manuscrit subit d’importants amendements de la main des éditeurs. Se trouve aujourd’hui restitué et présenté pour la première fois le texte manuscrit original tel qu’il était au moment de la mort de l’écrivain en 1961. Ainsi, "Le poisson-pilote et les riches", l’un des textes les plus personnels et intéressants, retrouve ici ces passages, supprimés par les premiers éditeurs, dans lesquels Hemingway assume la responsabilité d'une rupture amoureuse, exprime ses remords ou encore parle de "l’incroyable bonheur" qu’il connut avec Pauline, sa deuxième épouse. Quant à "Nada y pues nada", autre texte inédit et capital, écrit en trois jours en 1961, il est le reflet de l’état d’esprit de l’écrivain au moment de la rédaction, trois semaines seulement avant une tentative de suicide. Hemingway y déclare qu’il était né pour écrire, qu’il "avait écrit et qu’il écrirait encore"...
