Download or read book House Made of Dawn 50th Anniversary Ed written by N. Scott Momaday and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-12-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Both a masterpiece about the universal human condition and a masterpiece of Native American literature. . . . A book everyone should read for the joy and emotion of the language it contains.” — The Paris Review A special 50th anniversary edition of the magnificent Pulitzer Prize-winning novel from renowned Kiowa writer and poet N. Scott Momaday, with a new preface by the author A young Native American, Abel has come home from war to find himself caught between two worlds. The first is the world of his father’s, wedding him to the rhythm of the seasons, the harsh beauty of the land, and the ancient rites and traditions of his people. But the other world—modern, industrial America—pulls at Abel, demanding his loyalty, trying to claim his soul, and goading him into a destructive, compulsive cycle of depravity and disgust. An American classic, House Made of Dawn is at once a tragic tale about the disabling effects of war and cultural separation, and a hopeful story of a stranger in his native land, finding his way back to all that is familiar and sacred.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Noble Womanhood "A Being breathing thoughtful breath, A traveller between life and death; The reason firm, the temperate will, Endurance, foresight, strength and skill; A perfect Woman nobly planned, To warn, to comfort and command And yet a Spirit still and bright, With something of angelic light." I have quoted a few lines from Wordsworth's familiar poem, "She Was a Phantom of Delight." I might just as well have chosen verses from other modern poets. Tennyson and Lowell, especially, vie with Wordsworth in setting forth the highest ideal of the perfect woman. It is an ideal that is comparatively new in the world. Where will you find it in ancient classic or sacred writings? The portrait of the frugal housewife in the book of Proverbs is good and homely, but there is nothing noble in it.

Download or read book The Dawn of Everything written by David Graeber and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A dramatically new understanding of human history, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about social evolution—from the development of agriculture and cities to the origins of the state, democracy, and inequality—and revealing new possibilities for human emancipation. For generations, our remote ancestors have been cast as primitive and childlike—either free and equal innocents, or thuggish and warlike. Civilization, we are told, could be achieved only by sacrificing those original freedoms or, alternatively, by taming our baser instincts. David Graeber and David Wengrow show how such theories first emerged in the eighteenth century as a conservative reaction to powerful critiques of European society posed by Indigenous observers and intellectuals. Revisiting this encounter has startling implications for how we make sense of human history today, including the origins of farming, property, cities, democracy, slavery, and civilization itself. Drawing on pathbreaking research in archaeology and anthropology, the authors show how history becomes a far more interesting place once we learn to throw off our conceptual shackles and perceive what’s really there. If humans did not spend 95 percent of their evolutionary past in tiny bands of hunter-gatherers, what were they doing all that time? If agriculture, and cities, did not mean a plunge into hierarchy and domination, then what kinds of social and economic organization did they lead to? The answers are often unexpected, and suggest that the course of human history may be less set in stone, and more full of playful, hopeful possibilities, than we tend to assume. The Dawn of Everything fundamentally transforms our understanding of the human past and offers a path toward imagining new forms of freedom, new ways of organizing society. This is a monumental book of formidable intellectual range, animated by curiosity, moral vision, and a faith in the power of direct action. Includes Black-and-White Illustrations

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1918 edition. Excerpt: ...to which they were formerly indifferent. It is beginning to dawn upon the consciousness of every woman that her little world is part of the world at large, and that the solution of her problems lies in the solution of community problems. She is beginning to realize that the price of her dinner is voted up and down at election time; that safety of the lives of her children from disease is now a political matter; that the moral conditions surrounding her boy and her girl, when they step from the home into the outer world, are matters controlled by the ballot. How can anyone imagine that she would be willing to remain peacefully at home, unmindful of her duty toward her children? Can anyone imagine that, with the education and awakening of the modern woman, she would go along without interest in community affairs, even if she has no children to be cared for? She has been taught to read and write, the natural result of which is to think; therefore, it is logical that she should demand the most simple and direct method of having her voice count in the solution of these problems. It is idle to say to the average woman of today, " Your place" is within the four walls of your house." It may be admitted that woman's sphere could be thus defined in the days when everything was made at home, and the housewife held control of all the forces affecting her dominion; but with the changed economic conditions the home also has changed, and for her own protection she too must have a voice and a hand in determining the problems which so decidedly affect the welfare of those she holds most dear. We are reminded by those opposing suffrage that there are still problems of the hearthstone to be solved; that when the domestic-servant problem is solved, and not...

I thought of the Kremlin. I looked for the moon - it was gone; for the stars - they were blotted out. But close beside me were two eyes - warm eyes that humanized the horrible light, and a voice saying Don't be afraid; there is no danger. No danger! I fetched a long breath and said good-night, and realized that brain and spine were aching as if after a strain. Yet only a shiver had gone over me.

One held the other's hand in her own, and gazed at the slender arm, which was encircled with four red bands just above the wrist - bracelets stamped in the flesh by cruel fingers. Slowly her gaze lifted to the other's face, which was downcast and pale, while her eyes sought to find and hold the sad ones that seemed to have no inclination to raise themselves.

This book was released on 2019-02-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman and Her Era, Vol. 1 Women from the legal and social disabilities under which the sex has labored from the beginning. If the wife of the dissolute husband can hold in her own right, the means of saving her children from starvation and ignorance; if the ranks of self-supporting Women find new and more remu nerative fields Open to them; if the Wronged Woman breathes a more human atmosphere of compassion, tender ness, and respect - healers, all, of the hurt she has suffered; if the Society of our day realizes, in its high need, the more fluent power of Woman to purify, inspire, and uplift it to higher motives and better regulated action; if the diviner tenderness of the feminine life is taking more distinct forms of potentiality over the selfishness and ferocity of former ages, we have to thank, more than any other party or organization, the brave Women of our generation who have persistently striven for these objects, bearing, mean while, the inevitable reproach and contumely of such a Reform, but never abandoning it. And if the views herein contained, are to receive a more liberal hearing now than they could have at the period of their advent into my own mind, that favorable circumstance, according to my judgment, is due mainly to these efforts. And I am grateful for them - not so much because they have prepared an audience for my word, as for any Truth of Woman, from any source.
