Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memory is an important facet of all our lives. If we lose these packages of pain and pleasure called memory that are so instrumental in establishing our humanity, then we lose the essence of who we are. That is what has happened to the dark-hearted Killer described in this story, who is out there now! Have you ever been at a location and wished you could witness and experience the events that happened in that space in the past? The Killer chronicled herein has that power! The Ring of Remembrance is the contemporary story of this ruthless murderer with an unbridled mind, who, by harnessing supernatural forces and the powers of his mysterious ring for the past thirty years, has stalked the darkness of Christmas night, slaughtering one family per year. Throughout the past three decades, everyone who has ever trailed the fiend has either been murdered or driven insane. The FBI has squashed media coverage, convincing the public that the horrors are over, but this Christmas, the truth is revealed, and FBI special agent Justinian Rooks, having just sealed his first big case, is summoned by the director to take on a new investigation. As the Killer begins to break his signature, one piece of evidence just may have the best chance ever of bringing the monster to justice: the Ring of Remembrance.

Book excerpt: “What is grief, really? It’s just a love that refuses to die...” Election fever has gripped the village of Little Bassington and the race for the Town Hall has intensified – with the fate of the Water Tower at stake. But as ghosts of the past and shadows of the future loom large, victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay its price. When journalist Adam Chapman embarks upon a deal with the devil, librarian Victoria Kendall discovers that some choices are destined to be inescapable. Meanwhile, the boundaries of love – both unconditional and unrequited – are put to the test. Feelings long buried are rising to the surface. Painful heartaches and disquieting realities look set to endure. A decades-old secret, long forgotten and left to gather dust, is discovered at Orchard House. For one resident, the aftermath of their brightest morning is about to become their darkest night... The second in Chris Vobe's five-volume epic, 'The Water Tower' is a raw and uncompromising tale of love, loyalty and allegiance, and offers a candid exploration of the way we deal with loss.
Download or read book Remembrance written by George Kilbourne and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oral history of a family never matches up with the written word. As a result, when a person dies who has the basic information, much of the history dies with that person. Gone are the horse thieves, rascals and real characters who make up the gene pool of the present generation; gone are the do-gooders who never created a fuss or stirred a wave. They are forgotten along with the horse thieves, and yet all of them left an impression and were part of the history of the family. In an effort to pass on what was said, these words are being written. They may not amount to much, but at least, they will contribute to the knowledge of the present and future generations. Maybe it can make something of it. Personages are not consciously romanticized; they are treated as they are recalled or as was related. If in the telling, they are made to seem more important than they were, or if they were given a mantle of gentility that they dont deserve, it wasnt done consciously. All one can do is tell it like it is, hope that it is admired for its honesty, if not for its comfort, and hope that the effort is appreciated. It should also be recognized that what I recall, or what made an imression on me as to any event may have been recalled entirely differently by one of my siblings, or what we were told may have been recalled entirely differently. After all, that is the nature of oral history recorded a half a century plus later. I have read some of the incidents of each of my parents youthes, and have the effort that each made to record some of them. Both are just a few pages long. I have no doubt, however, that to them, they record what each recalled as being important in their lives, and that their writings record the things that they recalled and wanted to pass on to their children, grandchildren and subsequent generations. And yet each is but a single chapter. Mother doesnt mention, for instance, what she said and did when I was recording our conversation about the dirty ballad that she knew. (Actually, it was quite tame, and in contrast to present day rap, didnt begin to hold its own.) And for dad, some of the most interesting stories are best left untold. My father was very closed mouthed about his youth, and it wasnt until he was almost ninety that he opened up about some things. As to others, I had to wait until he was in his grave before I learned them, and learned them, then, from my siblings. He specificially avoided telling me about certain things. I recall specifically, that I was given some of the stories by dads younger brother when I was sixteen years old. When I laughingly told them to dad, his comment was, Roy never should have told you that. Some families dont pass on the rich history and heritage that they have. In my own case, having been preceded in death by my elder son, and not being sure of the interest of my other son, this effort is made for the benefit of my other relatives. They have asked me about it - at least some of them have. I make no apologies for the the lack of Notable Americans. I started to say, great Americans, but that would have been wrong. All of my forebears were Great Americans. Its just that they were never recorded as such, or noted. The history speaks for itself.
Download or read book Archaeologies of Remembrance written by Howard Williams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did past communities and individuals remember through social and ritual practices? How important were mortuary practices in processes of remembering and forgetting the past? This innovative new research work focuses upon identifying strategies of remembrance. Evidence can be found in a range of archaeological remains including the adornment and alteration of the body in life and death, the production, exchange, consumption and destruction of material culture, the construction, use and reuse of monuments, and the social ordering of architectural space and the landscape. This book shows how in the past, as today, shared memories are important and defining aspects of social and ritual traditions, and the practical actions of dealing with and disposing of the dead can form a central focus for the definition of social memory.

Download or read book Designing Memory written by Sabina Tanović and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-28 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative study of memorial architecture investigates how design can translate memories of human loss into tangible structures, creating spaces for remembering. Using approaches from history, psychology, anthropology and sociology, Sabina Tanović explores purposes behind creating contemporary memorials in a given location, their translation into architectural concepts, their materialisation in the face of social and political challenges, and their influence on the transmission of memory. Covering the period from the First World War to the present, she looks at memorials such as the Holocaust museums in Mechelen and Drancy, as well as memorials for the victims of terrorist attacks, to unravel the private and public role of memorial architecture and the possibilities of architecture as a form of agency in remembering and dealing with a difficult past. The result is a distinctive contribution to the literature on history and memory, and on architecture as a link to the past.

Download or read book The Vimy Trap written by Ian McKay and published by Between the Lines. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the bloody 1917 Battle of Vimy Ridge is, according to many of today’s tellings, a heroic founding moment for Canada. This noble, birth-of-a-nation narrative is regularly applied to the Great War in general. Yet this mythical tale is rather new. “Vimyism”— today’s official story of glorious, martial patriotism—contrasts sharply with the complex ways in which veterans, artists, clerics, and even politicians who had supported the war interpreted its meaning over the decades. Was the Great War a futile imperial debacle? A proud, nation-building milestone? Contending Great War memories have helped to shape how later wars were imagined. The Vimy Trap provides a powerful probe of commemoration cultures. This subtle, fast-paced work of public history—combining scholarly insight with sharp-eyed journalism, and based on primary sources and school textbooks, battlefield visits and war art—explains both how and why peace and war remain contested terrain in ever-changing landscapes of Canadian memory.

Download or read book The Arts of Remembrance in Early Modern England written by Andrew Gordon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early modern period inherited a deeply-ingrained culture of Christian remembrance that proved a platform for creativity in a remarkable variety of forms. From the literature of church ritual to the construction of monuments; from portraiture to the arrangement of domestic interiors; from the development of textual rites to drama of the contemporary stage, the early modern world practiced 'arts of remembrance' at every turn. The turmoils of the Reformation and its aftermath transformed the habits of creating through remembrance. Ritually observed and radically reinvented, remembrance was a focal point of the early modern cultural imagination for an age when beliefs both crossed and divided communities of the faithful. The Arts of Remembrance in Early Modern England maps the new terrain of remembrance in the post-Reformation period, charting its negotiations with the material, the textual and the performative.
