This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mythical Bards and the Life of William Wallace, Vol. 5 For several years I have wished to satisfy my conscience with regard to a volume, long promised, on English Literature from Chaucer to Elizabeth, but have been held back for this among other rea sons, that there were many doughty questions con fronting me which could only be solved, if ever, by long research, and which needed more time and courage than I could muster. I did not feel, further more, that many thousands of people were waiting to be delivered from embarrassment with respect to them, and when I contemplated conquest, the man in the moon declined his aid There was no way I could discover except by prayer and fasting, to which there is not sufficient incentive in our hurried days. Yet I began, and made fair progress until I reached the mountain fastness of Conjee ture, where ugly faces stared at me from every side, and I could not go round about, as Peer Gynt tried to do when confronted by the trolls. One of these faces, that of a tragic blind bard, viewed me so quizzically that I got angry and determined to take him by the beard (every blind bard has been envisaged with a beard) and make him at least yield, whatever happened for the time being to the rest. He seemed, in truth, this my Great Boig, as the air, invulnerable but I stuck to him grimly, and suddenly he disappeared out of the way. The church-bells that helped Peer in dismay here symbols of the above-mentioned prayer and fast ing conquered him. He went back to faery, where he belonged.

Download or read book Fighting for Life written by S. Josephine Baker and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “engaging and . . . thought-provoking” memoir of battling public health crises in early 20th-century New York City—from the pioneering female physician and children’s health advocate who ‘caught’ Typhoid Mary (The New York Times) New York’s Lower East Side was said to be the most densely populated square mile on earth in the 1890s. Health inspectors called the neighborhood “the suicide ward.” Diarrhea epidemics raged each summer, killing thousands of children. Sweatshop babies with smallpox and typhus dozed in garment heaps destined for fashionable shops. Desperate mothers paced the streets to soothe their feverish children and white mourning cloths hung from every building. A third of the children living there died before their fifth birthday. By 1911, the child death rate had fallen sharply and The New York Times hailed the city as the healthiest on earth. In this witty and highly personal autobiography, public health crusader Dr. S. Josephine Baker explains how this transformation was achieved. By the time she retired in 1923, Baker was famous worldwide for saving the lives of 90,000 children. The programs she developed, many still in use today, have saved the lives of millions more. She fought for women’s suffrage, toured Russia in the 1930s, and captured “Typhoid” Mary Mallon, twice. She was also an astute observer of her times, and Fighting for Life is one of the most honest, compassionate memoirs of American medicine ever written.

Download or read book The Adult Learner written by Malcolm S. Knowles and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you tailor education to the learning needs of adults? Do they learn differently from children? How does their life experience inform their learning processes? These were the questions at the heart of Malcolm Knowles’ pioneering theory of andragogy which transformed education theory in the 1970s. The resulting principles of a self-directed, experiential, problem-centred approach to learning have been hugely influential and are still the basis of the learning practices we use today. Understanding these principles is the cornerstone of increasing motivation and enabling adult learners to achieve. The 9th edition of The Adult Learner has been revised to include: Updates to the book to reflect the very latest advancements in the field. The addition of two new chapters on diversity and inclusion in adult learning, and andragogy and the online adult learner. An updated supporting website. This website for the 9th edition of The Adult Learner will provide basic instructor aids including a PowerPoint presentation for each chapter. Revisions throughout to make it more readable and relevant to your practices. If you are a researcher, practitioner, or student in education, an adult learning practitioner, training manager, or involved in human resource development, this is the definitive book in adult learning you should not be without.
Download or read book Teaching the Literatures of the American Civil War written by Colleen Glenney Boggs and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Abraham Lincoln met Harriet Beecher Stowe in 1863, he reportedly greeted her as "the little woman who wrote the book that started this Great War." To this day, Uncle Tom's Cabin serves as a touchstone for the war. Yet few works have been selected to represent the Civil War's literature, even though historians have filled libraries with books on the war itself. This volume helps teachers address the following questions: What is the relation of canonical works to the multitude of occasional texts that were penned in response to the Civil War, and how can students understand them together? Should an approach to war literature reflect the chronology of historical events or focus instead on thematic clusters, generic forms, and theoretical concerns? How do we introduce students to archival materials that sometimes support, at other times resist, the close reading practices in which they have been trained? Twenty-three essays cover such topics as visiting historical sites to teach the literature, using digital materials, teaching with anthologies; soldiers' dime novels, Confederate women's diaries, songs, speeches; the conflicted theme of treason, and the double-edged theme of brotherhood; how battlefield photographs synthesize fact and fiction; and the roles in the war played by women, by slaves, and by African American troops. A section of the volume provides a wealth of resources for teachers.
