Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expanded Edition The medley of 44 lyric poems is dedicated to all who cherish sensitive emotions elicited through poetic expression. They were written for the searching romantic, culturally curious, and outdoor devotee. Formed with rhythm's pattern in verse all promote an increased understanding of love's contribution to relationships of various types. Persons desiring greater self-awareness will gain insight and emotional encouragement from the readings. The lyric styled poems were spawned by inspiration's accomplishment. Every verse in rhyme was conceived of understanding coupled with the rhythmic pulse of feeling. Each poem displays qualities that include profound and stimulating without being provocative. All are sympathetic to the notion that what is personally felt while reading the narratives in cadence matters more than the discovery of intended purpose or meaning given by the author. Challenges in seeking love's desirable best are disclosed in personal account snippets, including revelations regarding 'Character', 'Family', 'Lifestyle', 'Love', and 'Nature'. All were crafted with a sensitive pen in the pursuit of emotionally insightful discovery. Many are based on real occurrences of the author/poet. When applicable venues include Alaska, California, Washington, and Mexico, but universally applied. Inspiration for each poem is credited individually following its ending.. Graphics are included of the author's personal drawings and sketches. Each one serves as an auxiliary illustration at the conclusion of every thematic grouping of lyric poems. (Screen Reader Supported with Enhanced Typesetting) _______________ Recommendation: Your poetry is deeply touching to me. I especially honed in on your thoughts in 'To Be, Or Not!', 'Timeless Treasure!', and 'Awakening!' - Judy Wilde, M.A., Clinical Psychology I am so impressed with your poetry book! I can't pick out which is my favorite poem. I read it again putting more emphasis on the cadence of the words, which was like a dance. Each time I read it it meant more. You have an extraordinary way of writing that gives the reader wonderful visual imagery! - Kay in Arizona

Book excerpt: Wealthy, mega-successful parents reared Harry Schiff to hunger for fame and fortune. At college he sees others throw off family fiats and successfully begin to define themselves. He meets Juliet, driven to be an actor, sensuous, passionate, yet never with commitment. His good friend, Katy Bloom, also a striving actor, becomes his confidante, secretly in love with him. A fourth buddy, Galen Thurston, an Adonis, blessed with Hollywood connections, gets a seeming break because of his father, but with strings. A tragedy explodes when Galen discovers his father's ugly secret. The group's chemistry is altered with an intrigue that involves both Harry's and Galen's parents. Juliet is on her rocket to fame, her own family's tale so sordid that she cannot tolerate her father's presence. Is Harry Juliet's toy? She would deny it, but eventually, Harry must face off his two demons: his parents' domination and Juliet's emotional indifference.

Download or read book Consecrating Science written by Lisa H. Sideris and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debunking myths behind what is known collectively as the new cosmology—a grand, overlapping set of narratives that claim to bring science and spirituality together—Lisa H. Sideris offers a searing critique of the movement’s anthropocentric vision of the world. In Consecrating Science, Sideris argues that instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the new cosmology encourages human arrogance, uncritical reverence for science, and indifference to nonhuman life. Exploring moral sensibilities rooted in experience of the natural world, Sideris shows how a sense of wonder can foster environmental attitudes that will protect our planet from ecological collapse for years to come.

Download or read book Melodrama and Modernity written by Ben Singer and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2001-04-05 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking investigation into the nature and meanings of melodrama in American culture between 1880 and 1920, Ben Singer offers a challenging new reevaluation of early American cinema and the era that spawned it. Singer looks back to the sensational or "blood and thunder" melodramas (e.g., The Perils of Pauline, The Hazards of Helen, etc.) and uncovers a fundamentally modern cultural expression, one reflecting spectacular transformations in the sensory environment of the metropolis, in the experience of capitalism, in the popular imagination of gender, and in the exploitation of the thrill in popular amusement. Written with verve and panache, and illustrated with 100 striking photos and drawings, Singer's study provides an invaluable historical and conceptual map both of melodrama as a genre on stage and screen and of modernity as a pivotal idea in social theory.

Download or read book Silent Film written by Richard Abel and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silent Film offers some of the best recent essays on silent cinema, essays that cross disciplinary boundaries and break new ground in a variety of ways. Some focus on the "materiality" of early cinema: the color processes used in printing nitrate film stocks, the choreographic styles of film acting, and the wide range of sound accompaniment. Others focus on questions of periodicity and nationality: on the shift from a "cinema of attractions" to a "classical narrative cinema," on the relationship between changes in production and those in exhibition, and on the historical specificity of national cinemas. Still others focus on early cinema's intertextual relations with various forms of mass culture (from magazine stories or sensational melodramas in the United States to the tango craze in Russia), and on reception in silent cinema (from black audiences in Chicago to women's fan magazines of the 1920s). Taken together, the contributors to this volume suggest provocative parallels between silent cinema at the turn of the last century and "postmodern" cinema at the end of our own. This book is an important contribution to the study of silent film and a key addition to this new series.

Download or read book Behenji written by Ajoy Bose and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2009-03-09 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised edition of Behenji, first published in 2008, examines Mayawati’s record as chief minister since 2007. It pinpoints the reasons behind the BSP’s poor performance in the 2009 Lok Sabha polls, her return to the Dalit agenda prior to the 2012 assembly elections, as well as its surprising results. Also scrutinized are Mayawati’s performance as a dalit leader and administrator, besides the rampant corruption and failure of her social engineering project during these years. Though no longer likely to become prime minister, the author sees Mayawati playing a pivotal role in UP, and, indeed, Indian politics post the 2014 elections.

Download or read book The Romantic Poetry Handbook written by Michael O'Neill and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An absorbing survey of poetry written in one of the most revolutionary eras in the history of British literature This comprehensive survey of British Romantic poetry explores the work of six poets whose names are most closely associated with the Romantic era—Wordsworth, Coleridge, Blake, Keats, Byron, and Shelley—as well as works by other significant but less widely studied poets such as Leigh Hunt, Charlotte Smith, Felicia Hemans, and Letitia Elizabeth Landon. Along with its exceptional coverage, the volume is alert to relevant contexts, and opens up ways of understanding Romantic poetry. The Romantic Poetry Handbook encompasses the entire breadth of the Romantic Movement, beginning with Anna Laetitia Barbauld and running through to Thomas Lovell Beddoes and John Clare. In its central section ‘Readings’ it explores tensions, change, and continuity within the Romantic Movement, and examines a wide range of individual poems and poets through sensitive, attentive and accessible analyses. In addition, the authors provide a full introduction, a detailed historical and cultural timeline, biographies of the poets whose works are featured in the “Readings” section, and a helpful guide to further reading. The Romantic Poetry Handbook is an ideal text for undergraduate and postgraduate study of British Romantic poetry. It also will appeal to every reader with an interest in the Romantics and in poetry generally.

Download or read book Relocations written by Karen Tongson and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What queer lives, loves and possibilities teem within suburbia’s little boxes? Moving beyond the imbedded urban/rural binary, Relocations offers the first major queer cultural study of sexuality, race and representation in the suburbs. Focusing on the region humorists have referred to as “Lesser Los Angeles”—a global prototype for sprawl—Karen Tongson weaves through suburbia’s “nowhere”spaces to survey our spatial imaginaries: the aesthetic, creative and popular materials of the new suburbia. Across southern California’s freeways, beneath its overpasses and just beyond its winding cloverleaf interchanges, Tongson explores the improvisational archives of queer suburban sociability, from multimedia artist Lynne Chan’s JJ Chinois projects and the amusement park night-clubs of 1980s Orange County to the imperial legacies of the region known as the Inland Empire. By taking a hard look at the cosmopolitanism historically considered de rigeur for queer subjects, while engaging with the so-called “New Suburbanism” that has captivated the national imaginary in everything from lifestyle trends to electoral politics, Relocations radically revises our sense of where to see and feel queer of color sociability, politics and desire.
