Download or read book Red Tower Room written by Z J GALOS and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poet had found a room to write, situated above Red Tower Street, in the city of music and coffee houses. His creativity flowed and poetry came to him instantly, recalling immediate past happenings. A change in the environment will induce that with a fruitful multitude of reflections and thoughts about love and death, as depicted in part one of this edition. In the second part, the poet muses about the love between a bard and his muse and the sweetness of love at an ongoing advanced age. In part three, he ponders about the events that offer him reincarnation and render him an awareness of the powers of eroticism. Part four are songs of a poet in love while commuting from the distant periphery of a world city to its historic core, where his refuge - the gift of a tryst - is awaiting him. The texts are enhanced with drawings by the poet, from the time of writing the poems, depicting the artistic tension between the lyrics and their visual interpretations.

Download or read book The Red Brush written by Wilt L. Idema and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-03-23 with total page 958 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of the most exciting recent developments in the study of Chinese literature has been the rediscovery of an extremely rich and diverse tradition of women’s writing of the imperial period (221 B.C.E.–1911 C.E.). Many of these writings are of considerable literary quality. Others provide us with moving insights into the lives and feelings of a surprisingly diverse group of women living in Confucian China, a society that perhaps more than any other is known for its patriarchal tradition. Because of the burgeoning interest in the study of both premodern and modern women in China, several scholarly books, articles, and even anthologies of women’s poetry have been published in the last two decades. This anthology differs from previous works by offering a glimpse of women’s writings not only in poetry but in other genres as well, including essays and letters, drama, religious writing, and narrative fiction. The authors have presented the selections within their respective biographical and historical contexts. This comprehensive approach helps to clarify traditional Chinese ideas on the nature and function of literature as well as on the role of the woman writer."

Download or read book The Psychopath Factory written by Tristam Adams and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Psychopath Factory: How Capitalism Organizes Empathy examines how the requirements, stimuli, affects and environments of work condition our empathy. In some cases, work calls for no empathy – characters who don’t blink or flinch in the face of danger nor crack under pressure. In other cases, capitalism requires empathy in spades –charming, friendly, sensitive and listening managers, customer service agents and careers. When workers are required to either ignore their empathy to-do a job, or dial it up to increase productivity, they are entering a psychopathic modality. The affective blitz of work, flickering screens, emotive content, vibrating alerts and sounding alarms erode our sensitivities whilst we are modulated with attention stimulants, social lubricants and so called anti-anxiety drugs. This is amidst a virulent and exacerbating climate of competition and frenzied quantification. Capitalism pressures us to feign empathy and leverage social relationships on one hand, whilst being cold and pragmatic on the other. We are passionate and enthusiastic whilst keeping a professional distance. Sympathy, care, compassion and altruism are important; The Psychopath Factory: How Capitalism Organizes Empathy argues that itis a mistake to presuppose that empathy can achieve these. Rather than being subject to the late capitalist organization of our empathy, psychopathy could be a means of escape.

Download or read book Powers of Imagining written by Antonio T. de Nicolas and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1986-06-30 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new translation of the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius de Loyola, of his Spiritual Diary, of his Autobiography, and some of his letters. These translations are introduced by a hermeneutical commentary laying out the theory and practices of the decision-making power of imagining. Ignatius proposed in his Spiritual Exercises a form of decision-oriented mysticism, and through their use, gathered around him a group of associates who became the firs members of the Jesuit Order. Under the control of later, doctrinally oriented theologians, the practical, decision-oriented mystical character of the original Exercises was gradually replaced by a more theoretical and devotional character. Antonio T. de Nicolas recovers in his translations and through his critical apparatus, the original decision-oriented thrust of Ignatius.
