Download or read book Romance of Transgression in Canada written by Thomas Waugh and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2006-07-18 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From pornography to autobiography, from the Cold War to the sexual revolution, from rural roots and mythologies to the queer meccas of Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal, The Romance of Transgression in Canada is a history of sexual representation on the large and small screen in English Canada and Quebec. Thomas Waugh identifies the queerness that has emerged at the centre of our national sex-obsessed cinema, filling a gap in the scholarly literature. In Part One he explores the explosive canon of artists such as Norman McLaren, Claude Jutra, Colin Campbell, Paul Wong, John Greyson, Patricia Rozema, Lea Pool, Bruce Labruce, Esther Valiquette, Marc Paradis, and Mirha-Soleil Ross. Part Two is an encyclopaedia of short essays covering 340 filmmakers, video artists, and institutions. The Romance of Transgression in Canada is both a scholarly account and a celebration of Canadian LGBTQ films - moving images that have scandalized conservative politicans, but are the envy of queer cultural festivals around the world.

Book excerpt: The key connectors in all relationships are life, soul, and love. If the soul detaches from life, life ends. And when love departs from the soul, the soul is empty. The soul keeps pain like a prick from a thorn, aching for that love that has departed. Why does the soul feel the pain? Well, because the soul never dies. Once the body dies, then the only thing that remains is the soul. That is the reason why we as human beings have the responsibility of not hurting anyones soul. That is why when we are really in love, we are to connect soul to soul. Love means to give and trust another soul with your heart and to connect and care unconditionally. Some relationships seem very strong because they have these principlestruth, love, and honesty. These principles in a relationship are attractive. And sometimes, when a relationship comes to an end, it catches numerous people by surprise. It is not because they break up for the same principles, but at times, these principles are what are left in the relationships when the feelings fade away. When theres no truth, love, and honesty in the relationship, it weakens. As the wind blows, it blows away everything with it. And once the wind stops blowing, you realize that theres nothing behind.

Download or read book Christ and the Marginalized written by Elizabeth Hernandez and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever lost something or someone of infinite value to you? Have you ever been wounded in a profound way? You are not alone. The majority of us will confront times when we feel lost, vulnerable, and in need of a helping hand: someone who will stretch out their hand and say, "Rise up!" Yet not everyone will have access to a trained professional or the financial resources to access those services--and this is especially the case for the poor and downtrodden in our world today. So many of us yearn to experience the healing of our souls; encountering a shepherd-helper with a caring spirit can lead us on the pathway to the other side of pain. The average person can show compassion and grow in that ability if they are equipped to do so. This book offers people of faith the lay counseling skills that will enable the church to help others in their brokenness and pain, with the goal of strengthening many, joining Christ in his work among the marginalized.

Download or read book The Rebirth of Hope written by Sau Le Hudecek and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in a demilitarized zone during the Vietnam War to a Vietnamese mother and American soldier, Sau Le arrived in the United States as a young woman with only twenty dollars in her pocket. Though bullied and abused since childhood, she nevertheless came to her new homeland armed with a commitment to build a decent life for herself, her infant son, and her traumatized mother. This is the story of how she overcame every conceivable hurdle—including significant culture shock, a language barrier, serious illness, heartbreak, and betrayal—to become a landlord, successful business owner, joyous wife and mom and a woman blessed with generous, loyal friends. She describes an arduous journey, both literal and figurative, from a place of terror and utter despair to a life she created that’s overflowing with prosperity, patriotism, and love. And ultimately, it’s the story of hope, something Sau thought she’d lost long ago in the minefields of Vietnam. In telling her story, Sau Le aims to uplift those who worry that their dreams cannot be realized. Her goal is also to remind everyone born on American soil that this is the greatest country on earth, and that anything in this land is possible for those willing to put dedication, faith, and passion to work.

Download or read book Vidal written by Vidal Sassoon and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2010-09-03 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vidal Sassoon's extraordinary life has taken him from an impoverished East End childhood to global fame. The father of modern hairdressing, his slick sharp cutting took the fashion world by storm and reinvented the hairdressers' art. Before Vidal Sassoon, a trip to the hairdressers meant a shampoo and set or a stiffly lacquered up-do that would last a week - or more. After Vidal Sassoon, hair was sleek, smooth and very, very stylish. Along with his lifelong friend and partner in style, Mary Quant, who he first met in 1957 and who to this day sports a Sassoon-style geometric bob, he styled the 1960s. As memorable as the mini - be it car or skirt - he is one of the few people who can genuinely be described as iconic. His memoirs are as rich in anecdote as one might hope and full of surprising and often moving stories of his early life - his time at the Spanish & Portuguese Jewish Orphanage in Maida Vale, fighting Fascists in London's East End and fighting in the army of the fledgling state of Israel in the late Forties. And then there's the extraordinary career, during which he cut the hair of everyone who was anyone, launched salons all over the world, founded the hairdressing school that still bears his name and became a global brand, with Vidal Sassoon products on all our bathroom shelves.

Download or read book Korean Film written by Eungjun Min and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its rise in the global market, recent political progress, and a surging interest worldwide, Korean films are relatively unknown and rarely studied. This new work begins by investigating the history, industry structure, and trends of filmmaking in Korea, going on to examine how Hollywood films have affected both Korean mainstream and nonmainstream film industries in terms of both means of production and narrative. Moreover, the authors analyze the ways in which Korean films of recent years have represented the modernization process in Korea itself, as well as the ideological implications that arise from the cinematic constructions of Korean imagination. More than a mere chronological account of Korean cinematic history, ^IKorean Film^R attempts to consider the films as a popular cultural form that have a life beyond their theatrical runs: stars, genres, and key movies become part of any culture's identity, and in their narratives and meanings can be located evidence of the ways in which a culture makes sense of itself. Korea has never before been given such an extensive treatment of this central idea, and here for the first time, the nation's culture and cinema are merged into one discussion that both reflects and shapes our understanding of it.

Download or read book The urban life of workers in post Soviet Russia written by Alexandrina Vanke and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the intense processes of deindustrialisation around the world, the working class continues to play an important role in post-industrial societies. However, working-class people are often stigmatised, morally judged and depicted negatively in dominant discourses. This book challenges stereotypical representations of workers, building on research into the everyday worlds of working-class and ordinary people in Russia’s post-industrial cities. The urban life of workers in post-Soviet Russia is centred on the stories of local communities engaged in the everyday struggles that occur in deindustrialising settings under neoliberal neo-authoritarianism. The book suggests a novel approach to everyday life in post-industrial cities. Drawing on an ethnographic study with elements of arts-based research, the book presents a new genre of writing about workers influenced by the avant-garde documentary tradition and working-class literature.
