Book excerpt: The South Seas charts the idea of the South Seas in popular cultural productions of the English-speaking world, from the beginnings of the Western enterprise in the Pacific until the eve of the Pacific War. Building on the notion that the influences on the creation of a text, and the ways in which its audience receives the text, are essential for understanding the historical significance of particular productions, Sean Brawley and Chris Dixon explore the ways in which authors’ and producers’ ideas about the South Seas were “haunted” by others who had written on the subject, and how they in turn influenced future generations of knowledge producers. The South Seas is unique in its examination of an array of cultural texts. Along with the foundational literary texts that established and perpetuated the South Seas tradition in written form, the authorsexplore diverse cultural forms such as art, music, theater, film, fairs, platform speakers, surfing culture, and tourism.

Download or read book Secret Indianapolis A Guide to the Weird Wonderful and Obscure written by Ashley Petry and published by Reedy Press LLC. This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where in Indianapolis can you find a disappearing painting, a towering “ice tree,” or a giant pink elephant holding a martini? What caused the Great Squirrel Invasion of 1822, and why did Hollywood celebrities once flock to an Indianapolis cottage called Tuckaway? Where can you find a hidden museum dedicated to antique fire extinguishers? And what, exactly, is a Recordface? You’ll find the answers to these questions, and many others, in this guide to Indy’s overlooked, offbeat, and unknown. Secret Indianapolis profiles the city’s best-kept restaurant secrets, strangest parks and museums, creepiest urban legends, and weirdest works of art. It also tells the stories of forgotten local heroes, and it reveals the secrets behind beloved Indy landmarks. You’ll discover the only place in the world where it’s still possible to order Choc-Ola, explore the most haunted house in Indiana, and hear about the very dirty prank Hoosiers once pulled on a former president. Written by lifelong Hoosier and local author Ashley Petry, Secret Indianapolis offers a new way to explore the Circle City—from the quirks of local history to bizarre activities you can try today.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide begins by describing the OCLC database, including ways in which it is used by librarians and library patrons; countries reached by OCLC; programs intended to enrich the database, e.g. retrospective conversion projects; cataloging formats (books, serials, sound recordings, musical scores, audiovisual media, maps, archives and manuscripts, and machine-readable data files); and vignettes of the database (OCLC coverage of Shakespeare and Bach, the top 100 authors and the top 25 composers in the database, and a brief discussion of special collections). An annotated listing of the special collections of OCLC member libraries that are cataloged in the OCLC database is then presented. This list is arranged alphabetically by state, then alphabetically by institution within each state, and a subject index to these entries (which constitute only a fraction of the database) is provided. Four appendixes include lists of languages in the database, Title II-C "Strengthening Research Library Resources Program" projects, and major microforms projects in member libraries. A brief description of the OCLC online union catalog concludes the guide, and a brief questionnaire inviting reader comments and suggestions is attached. (CGD)
