Book The Great White Plague

Download or read book The Great White Plague written by W. D. Frost and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great White Plague: Simple Lessons on Causes and Prevention This little book is intended for pupils from the age of twelve or thirteen years onward. It has been the aim to make the material contained in it of practical interest to teachers as well as to pupils. The treatment throughout is simple and concrete, and every principle developed is illustrated with instances drawn from the every-day experiences of children of the ages for whom the book has been prepared. Generous use has been made of photographs and diagrammatic pictures. If the pupils now in the schools could be so instructed in respect to the subject matter of this book that it would take effect in their daily living, tuberculosis would be materially diminished immediately; and in a generation or two it would probably disappear completely. It is doubtful if it can be got rid of in any other way. The authors have had the co-operation of the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis Association in the preparation of the book; and acknowledgment is hereby made of valuable financial help as well as criticisms and suggestions made by the officers of the Association. Acknowledgment is also made of assistance received from Superintendent C. P. Cary, and from Professor W. E. Leonard, Miss M. E. Ashmun and Mrs. E. E. Hoyt of the University of Wisconsin.

  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2011-12-27
  • ISBN : 1101559306
  • Pages : 310 pages

Download or read book Temptation written by Daniel Akst and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " This elegantly written and useful book . . . describes how, for millennia, human beings have struggled to rein in desire." -USA Today At a time when the fallout from reckless spending and unrestrained consumption is fueling a national malaise, Daniel Akst delivers a witty and comprehensive investigation of the central problem of our time: how to save ourselves from what we want. Temptation reminds us that while more calories, sex, and intoxicants are readily available than ever before, crucial social constraints have eroded, creating a world that sorely tests the limits of human willpower. Referencing history, literature, psychology, philosophy, and economics, Akst draws a vivid picture of the many-sided problem of desire-and delivers a blueprint for how we can steer shrewdly away from a campaign of self-destruction.

Book Pestilence and the Body Politic in Latin Literature

Download or read book Pestilence and the Body Politic in Latin Literature written by Hunter H. Gardner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists, journalists, novelists, and filmmakers continue to generate narratives of contagion, stories shaped by a tradition of disease discourse that extends to early Greco-Roman literature. Lucretius, Vergil, and Ovid developed important conventions of the western plague narrative as a response to the breakdown of the Roman res publica in the mid-first century CE and the reconstitution of stabilized government under the Augustan Principate (31 BCE-14 CE): relying on the metaphoric relationship between the human body and the body politic, these authors used largely fictive representations of epidemic disease to address the collapse of the social order and suggest remedies for its recovery. Theorists such as Susan Sontag and René Girard have observed how the rhetoric of disease frequently signals social, psychological, or political pathologies, but their observations have rarely been applied to Latin literary practices. Pestilence and the Body Politic in Latin Literature explores how the origins and spread of outbreaks described by Roman writers enact a drama in which the concerns of the individual must be weighed against those of the collective, staged in an environment signalling both reversion to a pre-historic Golden Age and the devastation characteristic of a post-apocalyptic landscape. Such innovations in Latin literature have impacted representations as diverse as Carlo Coppola's paintings of a seventeenth-century outbreak of bubonic plague in Naples and Margaret Atwood's Maddaddam Trilogy. Understanding why Latin writers developed these tropes for articulating contagious disease and imbuing them with meaning for the collapse of the Roman body politic allows us to clarify what more recent disease discourses mean both for their creators and for the populations they afflict in contemporary media.

Book Domestic Devotions in Early Modern Italy

Download or read book Domestic Devotions in Early Modern Italy written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic Devotions in Early Modern Italy illuminates the vibrancy of spiritual beliefs and practices which profoundly shaped family life in this era. Scholarship on Catholicism has tended to focus on institutions, but the home was the site of religious instruction and reading, prayer and meditation, communal worship, multi-sensory devotions, contemplation of religious images and the performance of rituals, as well as extraordinary events such as miracles. Drawing on a wide range of sources, this volume affirms the central place of the household to spiritual life and reveals the myriad ways in which devotion met domestic needs. The seventeen essays encompass religious history, the histories of art and architecture, material culture, musicology, literary history, and social and cultural history. Contributors are Erminia Ardissino, Michele Bacci, Michael J. Brody, Giorgio Caravale, Maya Corry, Remi Chiu, Sabrina Corbellini, Stefano Dall’Aglio, Marco Faini, Iain Fenlon, Irene Galandra Cooper, Jane Garnett, Joanna Kostylo, Alessia Meneghin, Margaret A. Morse, Elisa Novi Chavarria, Gervase Rosser, Zuzanna Sarnecka, Katherine Tycz, and Valeria Viola.
