Download or read book Tangier written by Josh Shoemake and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An edge city, poised at the northernmost tip of Africa but just nine miles from Europe, Tangier is more than a destination, it is an escape. The Interzone, as William Burroughs called it, has attracted spies, outlaws, outcasts and writers for centuries – men and women breaking through artistic borders. The results were some of the most incendiary and influential books of our time and the list of outlaw originals is long, stretching from Ibn Battuta and Alexandre Dumas to Twain and Wharton and from the darkly brilliant Beats of Bowles, Kerouac, Gysin and Ginsberg to the great Moroccan novelists: Mohamed Choukri, Mohammed Mrabet and Tahar Ben Jelloun.

Download or read book Enunciating English Properly written by Pickering and published by Sts. Jude imPress. This book was released on 2004-09 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph aims at teaching immigrants and local-accent citizens how to pronounce the written word properly, using, at times. famous speeches and humorous instances. It sets three simple rules: start each [non-first] syllable with a consonant; if there are two consonants, end the syllable with one and begin the next with the second; be sure to pronounce - but not emphasize - each word's final consonant. Exceptions to the rules are found to have their roots in ancient languages whose double consonant sounds are now written with single English letters so as to hold our alphabet to 26 letters. This is demonstrated by scrolling out ancient alphabets from 1450 BC to 1600 AD.

Download or read book Alcohol Flows Across Cultures written by Waltraud Ernst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book maps changing patterns of drinking. Emphasis is laid on the connected histories of different regions and populations across the globe regarding consumption patterns, government policies, economics and representations of alcohol and drinking. Its transnational perspective facilitates an understanding of the local and global factors that have had a bearing on alcohol consumption and legislation, especially on the emergence of particular styles of ‘drinking cultures’. The comparative approach helps to identify similarities, differences and crossovers between particular regions and pinpoint the parameters that shape alcohol consumption, policies, legal and illegal production, and popular perceptions. With a wide geographic range, the book explores plural drinking cultures within any one region, their association with specific social groups, and their continuities and changes in the wake of wider global, colonial and postcolonial economic, political and social constraints and exchanges.
Download or read book Dating the Four Gospels written by Lawrence A. Murray and published by Sts. Jude imPress. This book was released on 2003-06 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dating the Four Gospels This monograph begins by reviewing the various Higher Critical Analyses that tend to hold that Mark wrote first, that Matthew and Luke copied him, that John's works were probably not written by the Apostle John, and that Matthew and Luke were written long after the prophesied destruction of Jerusalem by non eye or earwitnesses. This author looks only at internal evidence within the four gospels. By comparing more than 100 verses and passages in them, he deduces that the hypothesized ""Q"" written document does not exist, and that the source is very likely the common-developed oral gospel preached by the twelve apostles from 31 to 42 AD. From these comparisons he shows the authors were first Matthew then Mark then Luke, then John, and that the three Synoptics were all written down in Greek well before 70 AD."
Download or read book Ian Fleming and Operation Golden Eye written by Mark Simmons and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The elaborate Allied schemes to keep Spain and Portugal out of WWII—featuring the real-life spy work of Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond. Historian Mark Simmons reveals the various Allied operations designed to keep the Iberian Peninsula out of WWII. It is a tale of widespread bribery of high ranking Spanish officials, the duplicity of Adm. Wilhelm Canaris, head of the Abwehr, and an elaborate scheme developed by a Naval Intelligence commander who would later create the iconic spy character. Ian Fleming and Alan Hillgarth were the architects of Operation Golden Eye, the sabotage and disruption scheme that would have been put in place, had Germany invaded Spain. Fleming visited the Iberian Peninsula and Tangiers during the war, in what was arguably the closest he came to being a real secret agent. It was these visits that supplied much of the background material for his James Bond novels. Fleming even called his home on Jamaica where he created 007 “Goldeneye.” The book begins in October 1940, when Hitler met with Spanish dictator Francisco Franco. At that time, an alliance between Germany and Spain seemed possible. In response, Adm. Godfrey of British Naval Intelligence created Operation Tracer, in which a listening and observation post would be buried in the Rock of Gibraltar, should it fall to the Germans. Simmons also explores the SIS and SOE operations in Portugal and the vital Wolfram wars. Though Operation Golden Eye was eventually put on standby in 1943, its intrigue and intricacy are both fascinating and enlightening.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary life is caught in prisons of identity. Public, academic, and political discourses do not seem to be possible without circling around the topos of identity, thereby creating an illusion of uniqueness, separation, difference, and conflict. By studying the relationship between the Moroccan city of Tangiers and the British overseas territory of Gibraltar, Dieter Haller shows how cross-boundary experiences, practices, and identifications create a sense of neighborhood beyond official discourses. Across the Straits of Gibraltar, local and regional relationships in different fields such as kinship, economy, and culture provide resources for post-Brexit common action and a future beyond the prison of identity.

Download or read book Tubiba of Tangier written by Cristina M. Bettin and published by Beatnik Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-22 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lucia Bedarida Servadio was born in Ancona, Italy, in 1900, and died in Cornwall-on-Hudson, near New York, USA, in April 2006. By her choice, her body was brought back to Italy and laid in the family tomb at the Jewish cemetery in Turin, where her husband Nino had been buried. Lucia was not afraid of dying, as she said in an interview in 2000 for her 100th birthday: If I have a message for young people today, it would be this: You have to have faith in life because life is stronger than death. I have had a very rich, interesting life and I am happy to have lived it and to have had the things that I have had. Cristina M. Bettin Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel In this volume, beautifully produced by Beatnik and impeccably edited by the New Zealand Centre for Literary Translation, Cristina M. Bettin brings to life a little-known story of Lucia Servadio Bedarida, definitively establishing her as an important case study in the complex and painful history of modern Italian Judaism. In Bettin’s thoughtful and empathetic hands, Servadio speaks to the reader in her own words, while the author chisels a careful path through the intersecting issues of gender, class, language, and culture that Tubiba’s life illuminates. This is a story of pioneering medical achievement with a strong ethical charge, but also one of diasporic wonderings, both forced and deliberate, and of inter-cultural communication. It is at once deliciously random and wonderfully appropriate that this volume be the result of an intercontinental collaboration between New Zealand, Israel, and Italy.
