Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Life Out of Prison August first, nineteen hundred and eleven! To you that probably conveys nothing; to me it is a never-to-be-forgotten day, the marking of an epoch in my life - a life up to that time brimful of tragic experience and vivid impressions. Since that time my life has been equally vivid, if not tragic, though in a different way. It was on that date, after spending ten years behind stultifying steel bars and stolid stone walls, ten years in stripes and in the midst of degradation, that I was paroled from San Quentin prison. To-day this prison is the domicile of the broken-spirited ex-political boss of San Francisco, the lifelong habitat of hundreds of hopeless men and women, the living grave of nearly 2000 human beings, each of whom is a cog in the ponderous, grinding wheel of human progress, for no man nor woman suffering a ruptured life in a prison cell is a less important unit in the evolution of humanity than is the money king, the man with the hoe or the minister of the gospel. No human being has yet lived and no human being now lives who has not or does not serve an important purpose in the great scheme of things. The fact that each human being comes into the world with latent propensities, certain temperamental characteristics and well-defined likes and dislikes has always been a source of speculation for me. I believe that every thought of every human being is of immense value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Prisoner of Love written by Jean Genet and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in 1970, Jean Genet—petty thief, prostitute, modernist master—spent two years in the Palestinian refugee camps in Jordan. Always an outcast himself, Genet was drawn to this displaced people, an attraction that was to prove as complicated for him as it was enduring. Prisoner of Love, written some ten years later, when many of the men Genet had known had been killed, and he himself was dying, is a beautifully observed description of that time and those men as well as a reaffirmation of the author's commitment not only to the Palestinian revolution but to rebellion itself. For Genet's most overtly political book is also his most personal—the last step in the unrepentantly sacrilegious pilgrimage first recorded in The Thief's Journal, and a searching meditation, packed with visions, ruses, and contradictions, on such life-and-death issues as the politics of the image and the seductive and treacherous character of identity. Genet's final masterpiece is a lyrical and philosophical voyage to the bloody intersection of oppression, terror, and desire at the heart of the contemporary world.

Download or read book Classics and Prison Education in the US written by Emilio Capettini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on teaching Classics in carceral contexts in the US and offers an overview of the range of incarcerated adults, their circumstances, and the ways in which they are approaching and reinterpreting Greek and Roman texts. Classics and Prison Education in the US examines how different incarcerated adults – male, female, or gender non-conforming; young or old; serving long sentences or about to be released – are reading and discussing Classical texts, and what this may entail. Moreover, it provides a sophisticated examination of the best pedagogical practices for teaching in a prison setting and for preparing returning citizens, as well as a considered discussion of the possible dangers of engaging in such teaching – whether because of the potential complicity with the carceral state, or because of the historical position of Classics in elitist education. This edited volume will be a resource for those interested in Classics pedagogy, as well as the role that Classics can play in different areas of society and education, and the impact it can have.
Download or read book Prison Life Classic Reprint written by John M. Brewer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prison Life The Legislature of Maryland by joint resolution adjourned to meet in the City of Frederick, September 17th, 1861. The author of this brief narrative of Prison Life in Government prisons was the Reading Clerk of the Maryland Senate. The office which he held clearly indicated his duties. The writer, in common with other citizens of Maryland who were attracted to the temporary capital of the State by the momentous questions to be discussed by the Maryland Legislature, availed himself of what he then believed and still believes to be the unquestioned prerogative of every freeman - the right to express his convictions of public duty. Having this perception of political right, the writer of this did not hesitate freely to exchange opinion with citizens of Frederick and gentlemen from other sections of the State, doubtless drawn there by the magnitude of the questions to be discussed in the Legislature, and upon whose deliberations the destiny of their State was in a measure to be decided. Believing at that time, as he still believes, that the old Union was hopelessly destroyed, the writer, a citizen born, reared and educated in Maryland, necessarily felt some interest in the future political affiliation which his State might form. When, during the summer of 1861, it became manifest from the repeated acts of tyranny on the part of the General Government, that Maryland had ceased to exist as a State, but was considered only a mere province of the Federal Government. The last free Legislature elected by the freemen of the former State of Maryland, through the Committee on Federal Relations, made a Report on the condition of the State, which will be read and admired as long as the English language exists. After they had eloquently and truthfully portrayed, and indignantly protested against the wrongs and outrages heaped upon a brave, spirited, but helpless State, they adjourned to meet on the 17th of September, 1861.
