Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universal Kinship The Universal Kinship means the kinship of all the inhabitants of the planet Earth. Whether they came into existence among the waters or among desert sands, in a hole in the earth, in the hollow of a tree, or in a palace; whether they build nests or empires; whether they swim, fly, crawl, or ambulate; and whether they realise it or not, they are all related, physically, mentally, morally - this is the thesis of this book. But since man is the most gifted and influential of animals, and since his relationship with other animals is more important and more reluctantly recognised than any other, the chief purpose Of these pages is' to prove and interpret the kinship of the human species with the other species of animals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Kinship: An African Study In the meantime it is obvious that among the Baila matrilineal descent is fighting a losing battle, and there can be little doubt that, if they had been left to the play of the forces of native culture only, they would sooner or later have adopted patrilineal kinship, as other Bantu tribes have done. While the tendency to change from kinship through the mother to kinship through the father is universal among the Bantu every tribe seeks for itself the solution of the problem how to effect the transfer. We will inquire how some of them have accomplished or are seeking to accomplish it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a universal language of love, a "kinship with all life" that can open new horizons of experience? Example after example in this unique classic -- from "Strongheart" the actor-dog to "Freddie" the fly -- resounds with entertaining and inspiring proof that communication with animals is a wonderful, indisputable fact. All that is required is an attitude of openness, friendliness, humility, and a sense of humor to part the curtain and form bonds of real friendship. For anyone who loves animals, for all those who have ever experienced the special devotion only a pet can bring, Kinship With All Life is an unqualified delight.

Download or read book Sins of the Flesh written by Rod Preece and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike previous books on the history of vegetarianism, Sins of the Flesh examines the history of vegetarianism in its ethical dimensions, from the origins of humanity through to the present. Full ethical consideration for animals resulting in the eschewing of flesh arose after the Aristotelian period in Greece and recurred in Ancient Rome, but then mostly disappeared for centuries. It was not until the turn of the nineteenth century that vegetarian thought was revived and enjoyed some success; it subsequently went into another period of decline that lasted through much of the twentieth century. The authority-questioning cultural revolution of the 1960s brought a fresh resurgence of vegetarian ethics that continues to the present day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Next of Kin: Those Who Wait and Wonder Hope Down through the ages, a picture has come of the woman who weepeth: Tears are her birthright, and sorrow and sadness her portion: Weeping endures for a night, and prolongeth its season Far in the day, with the will of God For a reason! Such has the world long accepted, as fitting and real; Plentiful have been the causes of grief, without stinting; Patient and sad have the women accepted the ruling, Learning life's lessons, with hardly a word of complaint At the schooling. But there's a limit to tears, even tears, and a new note is sounding: Hitherto they have wept without hope, never seeing an ending; Now hope has dawned in their poor lonely hearts, And a message they're sending Over the world to their sisters in weeping, a message is flashing, Flashing the brighter, for the skies are so dark And war thunders crashing! And this is the message the war-stricken women send out In their sorrow: "Yesterday and to-day have gone wrong, But we still have to-morrow!"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Next of Kin, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Presently a confused noise of yelling, shouting, and laughing was heard in the distance, rushing on very rapidly though; and then suddenly the end of the long strait street seemed all in one bright blaze, sparks ew about high above the dense mass below, and but that the fire was evidently a running one, timid folks might have feared for the safety of the houses in that part of the town. On they came faster and noisier, and then was discerned a rude sort of procession headed by a dozen ragged ruffians dragging a long rope, attached to which was an im mense tar-barrel on fire. Astride on the top of this was a black, shaggy-haired, smutty salamandrine young scamp, proud as any barbaric hero of a triumph.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Next of Kin, Vol. 2: A Novel in Three Volumes If money can procure a luxury, why should the rich man be long without it; and when damasks and velvets hang in graceful folds around his rooms, and chandeliers glitter and sparkle above his head, while his feet sink into the soft pile of his carpet, and his coffee is handed to him on a silver salver, he may feel as supremely happy as any modern Fortunatus can be expected to feel; that is, if his dear friends and neighbours are looking on and envying him as much as he wishes them. Some of our dinner parties are grand affairs, indeed seldom less than half a dozen courses, consisting of every delicacy in and out of season - hot-house fruit in profusion, and nothing drank but the most expensive wines.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Next of Kin, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel in Three Volumes It was one of those days very apt to make an Englishman peevish, idle, unsettled, and splenetic; when he would very likely swear that the rainy season in Abyssinia could not be half so bad to endure as those alternate days of showers and sunshine in his own country. As the autumn twilight set in, all things looked still more dismal and uninviting; yet, out into those murky, sloppy streets Mr. Maggs must go, for it was long past the usual hour of leaving his office; and he looked oftener, and more impatiently towards the window, wishing the rain would cease for a sufficient time to allow of his walking home without getting wet through. His occupation appeared to be merely a desultory one for the time being, to wile away the tediousness of waiting.

Download or read book The Copy Generic written by Scott MacLochlainn and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-11-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating look at the concept of the generic and its role in making meaning in the world. From off-brand products to elevator music, the “generic” is discarded as the copy, the knockoff, and the old. In The Copy Generic, anthropologist Scott MacLochlainn insists that more than the waste from the culture machine, the generic is a universal social tool, allowing us to move through the world with necessary blueprints, templates, and frames of reference. It is the baseline and background, a category that orders and values different types of specificity yet remains inherently nonspecific in itself. Across arenas as diverse as city planning, social media, ethnonationalism, and religion, the generic points to spaces in which knowledge is both overproduced and desperately lacking. Moving through ethnographic and historical settings in the Philippines, Europe, and the United States, MacLochlainn reveals how the concept of the generic is crucial to understanding how things repeat, circulate, and are classified in the world.

Book excerpt: Wynne-Tyson writes with flair and passion about his experiences as a one-man publishing enterprise.
