Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bluetune is a whale born on a cold winter night in the deepest trench of the North Pacific Ocean, and his life begins with a profound challenge from the very first day. This challenge, right from the moment of his birth, deprives him of the opportunity for an ordinary life and compels him to adapt to his unique circumstances. He spends his early years with his mother, who is his sole caretaker. She ingeniously strives to adjust their circumstances as much as possible while imparting life skills and responsibilities to her child. However, in his teenage years, Bluetune’s life is confronted with deep challenges. These challenges, one after another, push him into the abyss of despair and a sense of defeat. Nevertheless, he learns to gather his inner strength and boldly confront these adversities, methodically unraveling their knots. He learns that nothing is without purpose, and no problem is without a solution. Bluetune’s life story serves as a representation of the journey undertaken by all those who transform the challenges of their lives into victories.
Download or read book Holocaust Journey Travelling In Search Of The Past written by Martin Gilbert and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes a new foreword by Rob Rinder 'Filled with short, well-informed and often heart-rending accounts of the fate of the Jews' TLS 'HOLOCAUST JOURNEY travels along the tracks of a history we would rather forget to the sites of wartime horror, and is also a moving excavation of the past' INDEPENDENT In June 1996 Martin Gilbert took a group of students on a two-week journey across middle-Europe which encompassed all the major places in the Holocaust - from Wannsee where the extermination of the Jews was decreed, to the camps themselves, via deserted Jewish communities and synagogues as well as the sites of the ghettos and deportation. 'The achievement of Gilbert's HOLOCAUST JOURNEY is to reduce to comprehensible, human terms of the scale of the genocide that to many is still unimaginable' LITERARY REVIEW
Download or read book Dynasty in Motion Wedding Journeys in Late Medieval and Early Modern Europe written by Patrik Pastrnak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together a variety of evidence, such as princely correspondence, travelogues, financial accounts, chronicles, chivalric or Renaissance poems, this book examines marital travels of princely brides and grooms on a comparative trans-European scale. This book argues that these journeys were extraordinary events and were instrumental for dynastical and monarchical self-representation, and channelled aspirations and anxieties of princely houses when facing each other. Each such journey was a little earthquake that resonated across all layers of society. Hundreds of diplomats, envoys, aristocrats, city officials, low-status personnel, soldiers, artists, musicians, poets, and humanists were involved in preparing, executing, and commemorating them. Stretching far beyond the mere physical movements of the future royal spouse, the journeys snowballed into a myriad of other meanings that epitomised the very character of a society based on prestige, magnificence, honour, and glory. The story of nuptial travelling is fascinating and rich; it is a perfect condensation of monarchical order, dynastic agenda, value system, personal motives, female agency, and social networks in this period. It is dynasty in motion, prestige on wheels, queenly time, place, and time like no other. This volume is the perfect resource for upper-level students and scholars of court studies, the history of monarchy, and for those interested in premodern Europe.

Download or read book Mark Twain s Travel Literature written by Harold H. Hellwig and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This critical study analyzes major concepts in the travel literature of Mark Twain and notes how his oeuvre (including his classic works of fiction) revolves around travel as a central issue. The book focuses especially on his representations of time, place, and identity in the travel works Roughing It, A Tramp Abroad, The Innocents Abroad, Life on The Mississippi, and Following the Equator. All receive an in-depth analysis, noting Twain's strong sense of nostalgia for the disappearing American frontier, his growing concern over the assimilation of Native American cultures, and his continual search for a sense of personal and national identity. One appendix provides a complete list of the travel literature contained in Twain's personal library.
Download or read book Journeys Beyond Gubuluwayo written by Roberts, R.S. and published by Weaver Press. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of these letters of Fathers Depelchin and Croonenberghs completes the rendition into English of the original two-volume work in French by these Jesuits of the Zambesi Mission. The first volume of letters marked the centenary of their arrival in what is now Zimbabwe and described the missionaries’ journey up from Grahamstown in the Eastern Cape and the establishment of a mission house near Lobengula’s capital. This second volume continues the story of the Mission from 1880. The letters are the record of the trials and tribulations they suffered in their over-ambitious plans for expansion beyond Gubuluwayo: to the east in Mzila’s Gazaland, another Nguni migrant state like that of Lobengula’s Ndebele; for the Middle Zambezi among the sateless Tonga; and for the upper Zambezi in Lewanika’s recently restored Lozi kingdom. The book ends on a note of failure after much loss of life, despite their courage and fortitude.

Download or read book Saving The Liar Colors Reflected written by Donato DiCristino and published by Donato DiCristino. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saving The Liar was written from personal experience but narrated in poetry with metaphoric undertones. Because there is no one or nothing specific actually referenced in the book, the reader is given a unique opportunity; the gift of choice. The book is divided into four sections with each section taking you into a different direction. First we go West in search of gold. Out West I examine the harsh reality experienced through unrequited love. After the heartbreak we head East to examine ourselves. There we discover a nest of undesirable feelings we either don't know exist or flat-out ignore. Stumbling South is exactly as it sounds. I use this section to explore society and the effects it has in our lives. Finally, we head North to discover the silver lining that exists within all of us. Saving The Liar is a one of a kind story. Deep but to the point. Enjoy!
