Book excerpt: Jou'lania's father worked every day to provide for his family; he respected the Word of God, and he loved his wife as Christ loves the church. Her father showed his aff ection by polishing her Sunday shoes, her self-esteem, and her spirit. But as the years passed, her shoes became soiled with dirt and splatter. She did not want anyone to know how dirty her shoes were, and she began to hide them. Each day was another exercise in obscuring her unhappy life with hairstyles, fake smiles, new clothes, and sweet smelling fragrances. But those things did nothing to comfort the pain in her heart for the three failed marriages. It was only by looking to the Lord for guidance and remembering how her father made her feel as a little girl that she was able to step out of the mud and be clean again. Daddy Polished My Shoes celebrates a father whose love his daughter never doubted and considers the profound lessons she learned from his example about life. It is a must read, a page-turner packed with family dynamics that would make you laugh, cry, forgive, and love again.

Download or read book Oil and Modern World Dramas written by Alireza Fakhrkonandeh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first to focus on the (re-)presentations of oil in dramatic literature, theatre, and performance, Oil and Modern World Dramas is a pioneering volume in the emerging field of Oil Literatures and Cultures, and the more established field of World Literatures. Through close analysis, Fakhrkonandeh demonstrates how these dramatic works depict oil, both in its perceived nature and character, as an overdetermined matter/sign/object: a symbol (of freedom, autonomy, speed, wealth, modernity, enlightenment), a commodity, a social-cultural agent, a social relation, and a hyper-object. This book is also distinguished by its innovative and critically manifold conceptual framework, positing the petro-literatures and petro-cultures an inextricable part of a global network. Oil and Modern World Dramas not only demonstrates how the chosen works of petro-drama manifest these concepts in their social-political vision, aesthetics and historical-ontological dynamics, but also reveals how they deploy such assemblage-based approaches both as a cartographical means and aesthetic method for exposing the systemic (Capitalocenic) nature of petro-capitalist exploitation, and as means of proposing ways of resistance and producing alternative modes of subjectivity, community, relationality, and economy.

Download or read book The Piscatorb hne Century written by Drew Lichtenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-21 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of the Piscatorbühne season of 1927–1928 uncovers a vital, previously neglected current of radical experiment in modern theater, a ghost in the machine of contemporary performance practices. A handful of theater seasons changed the course of 20th- and 21st-century theatre. But only the Piscatorbühne of 1927–1928 went bankrupt in less than a year. This exploration tells the story of that collapse, how it predicted the wider collapse of the late Weimar Republic, and how it relates to our own era of political polarization and economic instability. As a wider examination of Piscator’s contributions to dramaturgical and aesthetic form, The Piscatorbühne Century makes a powerful and timely case for the renewed significance of the broader epic theater tradition. Drawing on a rich archive of interwar materials, Drew Lichtenberg reconstructs this germinal nexus of theory and praxis for the modern theatre. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre, performance, art, and literature.
