Download or read book Jottings written by Liz Smith and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOTTINGS is a collection of the stories that Liz Smith has written over the years. Sometimes they explore the darker side of life and what may occur out of the public gaze: a rich and lonely housewife neglects her child and the nanny subjects her charge to unpleasant and adult scenes; a man's wish for fame catapults him into prison and mistaken notoriety; an unhappy wife loses her only friend and is haunted by her. Other stories are more amusing: the sexy, man-eating woman who runs the mobile library: moving through the fog of 1950's London with the help of a blind man; a scheming daughter who plans to take her mother's money has a surprising comeuppance. Liz's stories are unexpected, original and revealing of a writer who is fascinated by relationships and the barriers we erect between our public and private selves.

Download or read book Jottings in the Woods written by Lynne Shivers and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2007-09 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOTTINGS IN THE WOODS, WALT WHITMAN'S NATURE PROSE AND A STUDY OF OLD PINE FARM is a unique combination of Whitman's stunning nature descriptions and the down-to-earth profile of a current program to protect land in South Jersey. While Whitman lived in Camden, he was stricken by paralysis. The Stafford family in Laurel Springs invited him to be their guest. During his stays, he walked along the Big Timber Creek and wrote about the nature he saw. The Old Pine Farm Natural Lands Trust in Deptford was founded to protect what is now nearly forty acres of woodlands, meadow and wetlands along the same Big Timber Creek. It is as though Whitman wrote his essays just yesterday, and the land trust is a current, living reflection of what Whitman experienced so long ago. Photographs, maps, drawings. "The teachings in this book come as natural and lively as the land it celebrates. Walt Whitman's vibrant jottings stir our senses, showing us how to wake up and see, smell, hear the daily wonders of the natural world, right at the edge of our city lives. With those who have come, over a century later, to love the same small realm of creek, woods and wetland, we learn how that full-body attention to life translates into service and the commitment to restore. Another lesson I love in this book is the way Old Pine Farm ignites people's dreams and energies to work together. The all-volunteer staff and board, neighbors, naturalists, scouts, high schoolers have generated an ecosystem of human community, whose powerful magic is this: to use the present moment to preserve the gifts of the past for the sake of our common future." -Joanna Macy Advocate of Deep Ecology and author of Coming Back to Life "Walt Whitman has been celebrated as an experimental poet who introduced the long line and free verse, as advocate of an uninhibited sensory and sexual life, and as a would-be founder of a new religion. But underlying all of these images of the poet is the Whitman who experienced the natural world as a manifestation of divine love and reciprocated this love in his poetry and remarkable prose "jottings." As we face an era of impending climate change, the editors have given us a choice sampling of Whitman's least known but best prose nature-writing. They also tell a heart-warming story of preserving an area of South Jersey streams and wetlands and woods that Whitman walked in and wrote about in riveting detail. Read this book and then plant a tree in honor of Old Walt and the good folk at Old Pine Farm." -David Kuebrich, Whitman Scholar and author of Minor Prophecy: Walt Whitman's New American Religion
Download or read book The Jottings of David Daube written by David Daube and published by YBK Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the great legal minds of our time, Daube's depth of scholarship in a range of subjects-ancient literature, English literature, ancient law, medical ethics, much more-was matched by a dazzling agility and originality of mind-for instance: though raised in an Orthodox Jewish home, he produced strikingly original work on the New Testament. David Daube's life spanned almost the entire 20th century and he was witness to its history. Born a Jew in Germany in 1909, he spent World War II and its aftermath in Britain on the faculties of Cambridge, Aberdeen, and Oxford. He came to the United States in the '60s-to the University of California at Berkeley where he reveled in what he called the "unmanicured, unclubbable, countercultural attitudes." Through it all he never lost his love for the land of his birth-though it didn't love him back for many years: he was on Hitler's list of those to be put to death once Germany had conquered England. Not your typical fusty professor, he was a brilliant and charming commentator on matters personal, political, social, and philosophical. The reader of these jottings (set down in the 1970s and '80s) will understand within a page or two why those who knew him treasured him as a friend, mentor, and intellectual provocateur. These private reflections, gathered by one of his most distinguished students, are charming, insightful, thought-provoking, sometimes profound, and sometimes just amusing. His commentaries on political and social issues of his time ranged from bravely original thought on Israel and the Palestinians to an amusing and enlightening review of the sensational porn film Deep Throat. Here are some sample jottings: "I love women. They provide the unhappiness that I need in life." "People are more struck by the asininity of the law when they are trapped by it than when they are let off." "We are all of us survivors all the time; everything that is, is a survivor relative to what has fallen by the wayside. Naturally, having escaped from Hitler's clutches myself, I am a bit more alive to the whole business than the average guy." The books's editor, Calum Carmichael, Professor of Comparative Literature and Adjunct Professor of Law at Cornell, has degrees in science, historical theology, and law from the Universities of Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Oxford. He teaches biblical and cognate (Near Eastern and Talmudic) literature as well as courses on law and literature in antiquity. He is the author of nine books that focus primarily on biblical law; the editor of a six volume series devoted to the work of David Daube who was his teacher at Oxford; and the author of a memoir, "Ideas and the Man: Remembering David Daube.
