Book Animism in Rainforest and Tundra

Download or read book Animism in Rainforest and Tundra written by Marc Brightman and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amazonia and Siberia, classic regions of shamanism, have long challenged ‘western’ understandings of man’s place in the world. By exploring the social relations between humans and non-human entities credited with human-like personhood (not only animals and plants, but also ‘things’ such as artifacts, trade items, or mineral resources) from a comparative perspective, this volume offers valuable insights into the constitutions of humanity and personhood characteristic of the two areas. The contributors conducted their ethnographic fieldwork among peoples undergoing transformative processes of their lived environments, such as the depletion of natural resources and migration to urban centers. They describe here fundamental relational modes that are being tested in the face of change, presenting groundbreaking research on personhood and agency in shamanic societies and contributing to our global understanding of social and cultural change and continuity.

Download or read book Seven Russian Archetypes written by Svetozar Postić and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven Russian Archetypes is a description of seven seminal Russian figures: the Victim (zhertva), the Fool (iurodivyi), the Rebel or the Bandit (buntar’ ili razboinik), the Wanderer (strannik), the Mother (mat’), the Peasant (muzhik), and the Intellectual (intelligent). Drawing from Russian history, folklore, literature, visual arts, and religion, these seven profiles are analyzed and presented in vivid and evocative detail. The seven portraits help to explain the Russian character and especially the groundedness of Russian culture in Orthodox Christianity. Many experts on Russian politics, business and culture, as well as admirers of Russian spirituality are aware of different features, both favorable and condescending, which display Russian mentality and temperament such as paternalism, messianism, collectivism, poor ability for self-organization, dogmatism, tendency toward asceticism and the penchant to bear suffering, radicalism, and inclination to extremes. From an external point of view, this is all accurate to a certain extent; nevertheless, these features explain neither the origin nor motivation behind the most evident behavioral manifestations. The more profound characteristics can be found only on the level of internal representations, which can best be revealed in symbols and archetypal characters. Seven Russian Archetypes explains these fundamental Russian symbols.

Book Alaturka  Style in Turkish Music  1923   1938

Download or read book Alaturka Style in Turkish Music 1923 1938 written by John Morgan O'Connell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early-Republican era (1923-1938) was a major period of musical and cultural change in Turkey. Alaturka: Style in Turkish Music is a study of the significance of style in Turkish music and, in particular, the polemical debate about an eastern style of Turkish music (called, alaturka) that developed during this rich and complicated era of Turkish history. Representing more than twenty years of research, the book explores the stylistic categories that show the intersection between music and culture; the different chapters treat musical materials, musical practices and musical contexts in turn. Informed by critical approaches to musical aesthetics in ethnomusicology as well as musicology and anthropology, the book focuses upon a native discourse about musical style, highlighting a contemporary apprehension about the appropriate constitution of a national identity. The argument over style discloses competing conceptions of Turkish space and time where definitions of the east and the west, and interpretations of the past and the present respectively were hotly contested. John Morgan O'Connell makes a significant contribution to the study of Turkish music in particular and Turkish history in general. Conceived as a historical ethnography, the book brings together archival sources and ethnographic materials to provide a critical revision of Turkish historiography, music providing a locus for interrogating singular representations of a national past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1819. Iax Agolasky, a young assistant to a notable French explorer, sets off on a journey to the Russian wilderness. They soon discover a group of creatures living in a cave: children with animal traits. But are they animals, or are they human? Faced with questions of faith, science and the fundamentals of truth, tensions rise in the camp. Soon the children's safety becomes threatened and Agolasky needs to act. The novel is based on the photo series and synopsis by Pekka Nikrus. Why Peirene chose to publish this book: Greek legends, fables and fairy tales all share an interest in mythical beings. In this book Sammalkorpi imagines what would happen if these creatures really existed. How would we respond? The answer to this question matters hugely. It determines what it means to be human. 'A truly enjoyable read with its beautiful and precise language.' Savonia prize jury 'One of the most ambitious works of this year.

Book Echoes of Justice

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kahoot competitions we organize every month to raise awareness among young people about human rights violations worldwide and in Turkey have reached over 10,000 views on YouTube globally. The impact of these competitions on young people and the feedback we receive have been a great source of motivation for us. Among the feedback we receive from young people, there are expressions like "thank you for presenting to us the incidents that happen without discrimination in a language that young people can understand and enjoy, which is Kahoot competitions." These feedbacks have been a great source of satisfaction and guidance for us. We are delighted to observe that young people gain significant motivation in preparing for the future by learning about human rights violations worldwide through these competitions. Additionally, seeing our guests share the lessons they have learned from their own experiences of ongoing human rights violations has also contributed greatly to our followers' awareness. The motivating effect of the prizes we send to the top three winners of the competition is also crucial. Seeing that these prizes motivate the winners and increase interest in our competitions brings us great joy. We realized that the success of our competitions has led us to consider recording all the competition questions and the valuable thoughts of our guests and turning them into a book. In this regard, we have completed our book with a great team effort and we are very happy to make this book available to young people and all volunteers who are sensitive to human rights. We hope that our book will be found in every home and that it will inspire the future golden generation to strive for a better world by learning from the lessons of human rights violations. We would like to thank everyone who has supported us on this journey.
