Book Savages and Saints

Download or read book Savages and Saints written by Bob Herzberg and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of American Indians on screen can be compared to a light shining through a prism. We may have seen bits and pieces of the genuine culture portrayed, but rarely did we see a satisfying and informative whole picture. Savages and Saints deals with the changing image of the American Indian in the Western film genre, contrasting the fictionalized images of native Americans portrayed in classic films against the historical reality of life on the American frontier. The book tells the stories of frontier warriors, Indian and white, revealing how their stories were often drastically altered on screen according to the times the films were made, the stars involved in the film's production, and the social/political beliefs of the filmmakers. Studio correspondence, letters from government files, and passages from western novels adapted for the screen are used to illustrate the various points. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

Wren I've lived a quiet life. After my parents' unexpected death, life as I knew it irrevocably changed. I was no longer an ordinary girl kept safe and surrounded by my family's extraordinary love. I was alone, lost, and afraid. Until I met a man who gave me reason to believe in a future I never thought I could have. Liam Dawson became my friend. I wanted to trust him. He became my solace in a prison I couldn't find my way out of. I wanted to believe he could keep me safe. He became my strength. It was so easy to fall in love with him. Then Liam discovered the truth of who I never knew I was. And I needed him to become my savior.

Book Saint Among Savages

Download or read book Saint Among Savages written by Francis Xavier Talbot and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint among Savages tells the remarkable story of St. Isaac Jogues, a French Jesuit who was killed by Mohawks while serving as a missionary in New France. Coming from a upper middle class life in Orleans, he knew from an early age that he wanted to be a priest and serve abroad as a missionary to risk his life in order to save souls. Along with several others, collectively known as the North American Martyrs, he followed his dreams and met death in the American wilderness. Living with the Huron people in what is now Ontario, he was captured by Mohawk warriors and tortured and held captive for over a year. He escaped back to France with help from the Dutch in New York, and remarkably insisted on going back to New France, even though he knew what he might be facing. Besides Jogues' life there is also a lot of material about the lives and customs of the Native American peoples who lived along the St. Lawrence River.

Download or read book Saints and Savages written by Robert Lamb and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saints and Savages: The Story of Five Years in the New Hebrides 'Saints and Savages' represents a study in black and white. It is an endeavour to give a glimpse of the heathen as they were seen by the writer, - a glimpse which enables us to understand in a measure how they lived and what they lived for, before white sails were first seen flitting among these isles, bringing a disturbing element into their simple lives. A glimpse is also given of the forces, good and bad, now at work, which are fast sweeping away every vestige of what once was. The story of Eden is being repeated before our eyes. The black man has been tempted to eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge. The result is the same - death to his race and expulsion from his fair heritage. The contrasts are, as the title indicates, strongly marked. The black is very black. It shows what may and does occur beyond the sky-line of civilisation.

Seine verstorbene Frau hatte ihn mit seinem besten Freund betrogen und rutschte ins Drogenmilieu ab. Doch als er eines Tages in einer Bar die wunderschöne Sängerin Sophie trifft, wird sein Leben erneut auf den Kopf gestellt. Nach einer unvergesslichen Nacht verschwindet sie einfach - nur um fünf Monate später in seiner eigenen Bard, dem "Savages and Saints" wieder aufzutauchen. Fünf Monate, in der Kade sie nicht eine Sekunde vergessen konnte. Und auch wenn er noch nicht bereit ist, sein Herz zu öffnen, so bietet er Sophie, die auf der Flucht vor ihrem Ex-Freund ist, einen Job und einen Platz zum Schlafen an. Ihre Vereinbarung, ihre Beziehung strikt geschäftlich zu halten, wird schon bald zur größten Herausforderung seines Lebens ...
