Download or read book Voices from Shanghai written by and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hitler came to power and the German army began to sweep through Europe, almost 20,000 Jewish refugees fled to Shanghai. A remarkable collection of the letters, diary entries, poems, and short stories composed by these refugees in the years after they landed in China, Voices from Shanghai fills a gap in our historical understanding of what happened to so many Jews who were forced to board the first ship bound for anywhere. Once they arrived, the refugees learned to navigate the various languages, belief systems, and ethnic traditions they encountered in an already booming international city, and faced challenges within their own community based on disparities in socioeconomic status, levels of religious observance, urban or rural origin, and philosophical differences. Recovered from archives, private collections, and now-defunct newspapers, these fascinating accounts make their English-languge debut in this volume. A rich new take on Holocaust literature, Voices from Shanghai reveals how refugees attempted to pursue a life of creativity despite the hardships of exile.

Download or read book Sex with Animals written by Laura Borrowdale and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "READING ROOM The problem with sex, with animals [by Laura Borrowdale. A complaint has been made to the Department of Internal Affairs against the author of a book of short stories.How do you know you’ve “made it” as a writer? Is it, as one friend recently commented on a photo of me holding my new book, when Facebook refuses to allow you to promote your work? Is it when your publisher has plastered Karangahape Road with posters of that new book, the title Sex, with animals in graphic black and white? Or, was it when you suddenly became best friends with Theresa from the Department of Internal Affairs?That’s a joke, we weren’t best friends. Theresa and I came into contact after someone made a complaint to the Department on Internal Affairs, feeling that I had breached public decency. Poor Theresa had to cope with my total millennial aversion to answering her phone calls, not because of Theresa, who was a particularly nice person to deal with, but because what we had to discuss was a complaint made by a woman with very little understanding of metaphors. The issue was really that, as well as being a writer, I’m also a teacher. A good one. The kind of one who is asked to present keynote speeches at totally rad conferences and to serve on the national council of English teachers. And for the complainant, the fact that I existed without shame in the public eye as a teacher and felt entitled to write about sex and sexuality as an author was intolerable. She felt I should not be allowed to do both, even though the audiences for these two streams of work are clearly different. Her complaint was that at the New Zealand Association of Teachers of English annual conference, I promoted sex with animals (no comma). What I’d actually done was deliver a keynote speech on LBGTQIA* issues and trans rights in the classroom. The problem (well, for the complainant) is that I’m not only a teacher, I’m also something of a tease. Not the smutty fun kind, but rather the kind who can be tempted to name her book as a joking reference to that complaint: Sex, with animals, a joke I’ve now made up and down K Road thanks to a poster run by Phantom Billstickers. I’m just hoping that her knowledge of punctuation is better than her concept of figurative imagery. But I’m sure my friend Theresa will ring me up to let me know if it isn’t".--www,newsroom.co.nz

Download or read book Do States Have the Right to Exclude Immigrants written by Christopher Bertram and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: States claim the right to choose who can come to their country. They put up barriers and expose migrants to deadly journeys. Those who survive are labelled ‘illegal’ and find themselves vulnerable and unrepresented. The international state system advantages the lucky few born in rich countries and locks others into poor and often repressive ones. In this book, Christopher Bertram skilfully weaves a lucid exposition of the debates in political philosophy with original insights to argue that migration controls must be justifiable to everyone, including would-be and actual immigrants. Until justice prevails, states have no credible right to exclude and no-one is obliged to obey their immigration rules. Bertram’s analysis powerfully cuts through the fog of political rhetoric that obscures this controversial topic. It will be essential reading for anyone interested in the politics and ethics of migration.

And it won’t be long before Ukiah discovers just how much he has in common with the Pack: a bond of brotherhood, blood...and destiny.
