Download or read book Space Power and the Commons written by Samuel Kirwan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the globe, political movements opposing privatisation, enclosures, and other spatial controls are coalescing towards the idea of the ‘commons’. As a result, struggles over the commons and common life are now coming to the forefront of both political activism and scholarly enquiry. This book advances academic debates concerning the spatialities of the commons and draws out the diverse materialities, temporalities, and experiences of practices of commoning. Part one, "Materialising the Commons" focuses on the performance of new geographical imaginations in spatial and material practices of commoning. Part two, "Spaces of Commoning", explores the importance of the turn from ‘commons’ to ‘commoning’, bringing together chapters focusing on the "doing" of commons, and how spaces, materials, bodies and abstract flows are intertwined in these complex and excessive processes. Part three, "An Expanded Commons", explores the broader registers and spaces in which the concept of the commons is at stake and highlights how and where the commons can open new areas of action and research. Part four, "The Capture of the Commons", questions the particular interdependence of ‘the commons’ and ‘enclosure’ assumed within commons literature framed by the concept of neoliberalism. Providing a comprehensive introduction to the diverse ways in which ideas of the commons are being conceptualised and enacted both throughout the social sciences and in practical action, this book foregrounds the commons as an arena for political thought and sets an agenda for future research.

Download or read book Edward Hopper written by Ulf Küster and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jene unvergleichliche Melancholie im bildnerischen Werk von Edward Hopper lenkt bisweilen den Blick auch auf biografische Details. An welchen konkreten Orten hat dieser Meister der Einsamkeit gelebt und gewirkt? Was waren die für ihn wichtigen Einflüsse, während er an den großen Bildern Amerikas gearbeitet hat? Ulf Küster geht in diesem wunderbar klug und leicht geschriebenen A bis Z genau den Themen nach, die zugleich viel über den Maler und seine Interessen erzählen und dabei doch nie den Künstler und die gebotene Distanz zu seinen unvergleichlichen Bildern aus dem Blick verlieren. So flaniert Küster entlang dem ABC von der »Amerikanischen Landschaft« über »Buick«, »Goethe« oder »Schatten und Sonnenlicht« bis zum Stichwort »Zeit« durch Leben und Werk von Edward Hopper und öffnet dabei viele neue Türen oder Einsichten, die wiederum den Blick auf Hoppers Bilder bereichern und neue Lesarten ermöglichen. Ein ebenso unterhaltsames wie informatives Buch.

Download or read book The Pen written by Nicholas Karapondo and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is God, and what is humanity's place in the universe? The author attempts to shed light on these archetypal queries through a spiritual tale of love and rejection, death and shamanism, a search for truth and meaning, and ultimately, multidimensional verities and enlightenment. Yet it's verily everyman's journey. On a voyage transcending identification with Ego, the reader is transported to a Presence beyond rational acuity. But the telling and intellectual consideration of this chronicle only gets you so far. It's akin to teaching algebra to a dog; the dog's not going to get it in its present propensity for understanding. It has to evolve. Each and every Now, Choice creates endless quantums of possibilities. The human, intent on continuity of story, abides outside the Shekinah, in Ego, where Destruction propagates. Yet the Eternal State of Being is there, as close as your jugular. At the core of the book is a clarion call for a transformation of consciousness; a spiritual evolution, from Homo sapiens to Homo Spiritus. The author presents a simple-to-grasp but difficult-to-hold-to edict for ascension: Believe, Obey, and Receive. Recounting his own journey to Wisdom, he identifies the direct link which Jesus heard and mastered, and compels awakening readers to wholly integrate into their lives as essential the awesome responsibility of Choice.

In seventh- and eighth-grade classrooms, at home, online, at the mall, and at summer camp, Kessler observes, investigates, chronicles- and participates in-the life of a twenty-first-century teen. As she begins to better understand and appreciate her mercurial daughter, their relationship-at first a mirror of the author's difficult relationship with her own mother-lurches in new directions. With the help of a resident teen expert (her daughter), as well as teachers, doctors, therapists, and other mothers, Kessler illuminates the age-old struggle from both sides, gracefully interweaving personal experience with journalistic inquiry. Funny, poignant, and insightful, My Teenage Werewolf explores the fascinating and scary world of today's teen as it comes to grips with the single most important relationship in a woman's life.

Download or read book The Biography of the Devil written by Harry Eilenstein and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few religious-mythological figures evoke such fierce emotions as the devil - for this reason alone it is worth taking a closer look at him. He is anything but a uniform figure: he is the god of the wilderness, the archetype of the dead at their re-procreation, the explanation of injustice in a world that a just God is supposed to have created, the prosecutor and executioner at the afterlife court, the god of the heathens, the rebel, the sex demon, the shadow of an entire civilization and even more ... He is the lord of the dead, his hell used to be the burial chamber of the tumuli, the fire of cremation has become the fire of hell and the devil's grandmother used to be the afterlife goddess a long time ago. The devil is what the majority fears - and he is the shadow, the repressed, what is missing - and thus also what is secretly most longed for. In Christianity, the devil is the punished perpetrator in hell and Christ is the redeemed victim in heaven - but who is the one who is whole? Who does not embody the power-molded perpetrator role like the devil, nor the powerlessness-molded victim role like Christ? Who is the one who embodies the independent, sovereign, self-contained and creative power?
