Download or read book The Play World written by Patricia Anne Simpson and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Play World chronicles the history and evolution of the concept of play as a universal part of childhood. Examining texts and toys coming out of Europe between 1631 and 1914, Patricia Anne Simpson argues that German material, literary, and pedagogical cultures were central to the construction of the modern ideas and realities of play and childhood in the transatlantic world. With attention to the details of toy manufacturing and marketing, Simpson considers prescriptive texts about how children should play, treat their possessions, and experience adventure in the scientific exploration of distant geographies. She illuminates the role of toys—among them a mechanical guillotine, yo-yos, hybridized dolls, and circus figures—as agents of history. Using an interdisciplinary approach that draws from postcolonial, childhood, and migration studies, she makes the case that these texts and toys transfer the world of play into a space in which model childhoods are imagined and enacted as German. With chapters on the Protestant play ethic, enlightened parenting, Goethe as an advocate of play, colonial fantasies, children’s almanacs, ethnographic play, and an empire of toys, Simpson’s argument follows a compelling path toward understanding the reproduction of religious, gendered, ethnic, racial, national, and imperial identities, emanating from German-speaking Europe, that collectively construct a global imaginary. This foundational and deeply original study connects German-speaking communities across the Atlantic as they collectively engender the epistemology of the play world. It will be of particular interest to German studies scholars whose research crosses the Atlantic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 2003. George Bush has just appeared aboard a Navy carrier flashing a Mission Accomplished banner. In England, a Wicca coven warns British Intelligence of a prophecy to assassinate a future US president. It is to be carried out by Ramses, the son of the Anti-Christ. British MI-5 notifies the CIA. The CIA enlists the Hawaii Attorney General because Ramses was last known to be in Hawaii. Hawaii authorities discover that there is more to the prophecy besides a potential assassination. If the assassination is carried out, it will lead to the start of Armageddon. To prevent the fulfillment of the prophecy, Ramses must be reunited with the Anti-Christ in ancient Babylon, now modern-day Iraq. The Bible believing Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii sees this as another piece of evidence of the approaching End-Times. He recruits Honolulu narcotics detective Jake Cohen-Garcia, a former Navy SEAL. Jake is the ideal Anti-Christ bounty hunter because of his born again Christian reputation and his unique Jewish-Hispanic DNA. Jakes DNA heritage matches up perfectly with links connected to the Wicca prophecy. Jake is teamed up with two investigators and a certified exorcist priest. They form a unique investigative unit: The God Squad. The squads mission is to locate Ramses and short-circuit the prophecy of Armageddon. The mission takes the squad into the bizarre world of the occult and quantum mechanics that challenges their faith, their strength, and their sanitythe battles with the paranormal compound, Cohen-Garcias struggle with his personal demons and split personality. It threatens to destroy his faith, along with his family, as it propels him toward his own destruction. In the end, Jakes salvation comes from an up-close and personal confrontation with Ramses, a holy man from another world. The salvation of the world hangs in the balance.

Download or read book Near Insurmountable Challenges and Persistent Hope written by Paul F. McCleary and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methodism did not function in a void. It was carrying out its mission in an environment charged with dynamic change. To fully understand the history of Methodism in Southern California, one has to find a way to allow one’s mind to alter as far as possible into the conditions and events of the period. As we are so keenly aware today, these circumstances determine the success or failure of the church to carry out its mission. While Methodism was an early arrival in California, within fifty years, the environment was changing to one that was highly competitive. In addition, the political environment was changing to a more conservative one while Methodism’s leadership and ministerial training of its clergy were more liberal. Added to these external complexities, there were internal difficulties unique to Methodism that needed to be resolved. The task ahead is to examine the challenges and accomplishments of California-Pacific Conference from 1945 to the present.

This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responding to the challenges of fostering regional growth and employment in an increasingly competitive global economy, many U.S. states and regions have developed programs to attract and grow companies as well as attract the talent and resources necessary to develop innovation clusters. These state and regionally based initiatives have a broad range of goals and increasingly include significant resources, often with a sectoral focus and often in partnership with foundations and universities. These are being joined by recent initiatives to coordinate and concentrate investments from a variety of federal agencies that provide significant resources to develop regional centers of innovation, business incubators, and other strategies to encourage entrepreneurship and high-tech development. Building Hawaii's Innovation Economy: Summary of a Symposium explains the study of selected state and regional programs in order to identify best practices with regard to their goals, structures, instruments, modes of operation, synergies across private and public programs, funding mechanisms and levels, and evaluation efforts. This report reviews selected state and regional efforts to capitalize on federal and state investments in areas of critical national needs. Building Hawaii's Innovation Economy also reviews efforts to strengthen existing industries as well as specific new technology focus areas such as nanotechnology, stem cells, and energy in order to better understand program goals, challenges, and accomplishments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In science, not God we trust is the future America in which Jordan McCarty, a professor of seventeenth-century English literature, has just lost his job and is losing his eighteen-year-old son, Brenton, to a "God gang" as belief in the Bible is now against the law. Blessed with a photographic memory but in need of a job, Jordan joins the world of biotechnology kingpin and former colleague Dr. Richard Dickson, who offers him a position as a technology writer at his new life span extension company, BioSpan. After discovering how DNA preserves our thoughts and memories, Dr. Dickson partners with a Las Vegas titan, Armando Bigolosi, and a modern-day biohacker, Daulton Hayes, who has invented a technology capable of translating the genetic language of DNA into the English language, thereby turning flesh into words. With unlimited funding, these three men join forces and aim to apply this technology to translate the written words of great writers of the past into the DNA of their thoughts. They embark on an audacious plan to restore the minds of these writers, bring their souls back to life, and usher in the age of edutainment in Las Vegas. Having memorized the entire contents of the Bible to understand what has led his son astray from science, Jordan develops a belief in God, leading to a climatic confrontation with Dr. Dickson, when Dickson announces that he has translated the entire contents of the Bible into DNA and plans to replace his thoughts with God's thoughts.

Download or read book Ethnomusicologizing written by Bill Banfield and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-08-13 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ethnomusicologizing: Essays on Music in the New Paradigms, composer and musicologist brings together a series of essays on music making in contemporary culture. More specifically, it focuses on the myriad ways we engage with music—as makers, as listeners, as consumers, as producers. Banfield labels this fully engaged process as “ethnomusicologizing,” as he explores the ways we create, share, teach, and discuss music. Throughout he argues that music is more than the experience of structured sound. It is rather a way of being more critically present as musicians and as citizens of sharing in the world itself. Ethnomusicologizing contains writings on contemporary music and culture studies, offering glimpses on more than just music history through reflective essays, interviews with contemporary artists, and exercises in the analysis and criticism of popular culture. In this work, Banfield instructs readers in the ways by which we may better appreciate and understand creative artistry and process, and their relation to history and its meaning. The essays comprise a choir of voices and perspectives that provide insight into contemporary music culture that provide readers a text that uses his own experiences as a musician—and in particular his travels through the musical world of Cuba—as well as his takes on contemporary popular recording artists, American music traditions, and music education to explore every aspect of creating, performing, and being in music. Offering many points of entry into the idea that musical experience, global citizenship and community-mindedness are all parts of a greater whole, Ethnomusicologizing encourages artists and readers to talk about the meaning of music—and art more generally—in entirely new ways.
