Download or read book Baseball Haiku The Best Haiku Ever Written about the Game written by Nanae Tamura and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2007-04-17 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting more than two hundred of the greatest haiku ever written about the game. There are moments in every baseball game that make fans catch their breath: the pause while a pitcher looks in for the sign, the moment a cocksure rookie gets picked off first, or the instant a batter lashes a game-winning homer into the night sky, just before the sell-out crowd explodes onto its feet. Haiku captures these moments like no other poetic form, and Baseball Haiku captures the sights, the sounds, the smells, and the emotions of the game like no previous collection. Some of the most important haiku poets of both America and Japan are featured in this anthology; including Jack Kerouac, a longtime baseball fan who pioneered English-language haiku; Alan Pizzarelli, one of the top American haiku and senryu poets of the last thirty years; and Masaoka Shiki, one of the four great pillars of Japanese haiku—a towering figure—who was instrumental in popularizing baseball in Japan during the 1890s. With over two hundred poems spanning more than a century of ball playing, Baseball Haiku reveals the intricate ways in which this enduring and indelible sport—which is played on a field, under an open sky—has always been linked to nature and the seasons. And just as a haiku happens in a timeless now, so too does Baseball Haiku evoke those unforgettable images that capture the actions and atmospheres of the national pastime: each poem resonates like the lonely sound of cleats echoing in the tunnel as a grizzled veteran leaves his final game. The largest collection of haiku and senryu on baseball ever assembled, Baseball Haiku is an extraordinary treasure for any true baseball fan.

Download or read book Middle Mongolian Loan Words in Volga Kipchak Languages written by Éva Csáki and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2006 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with Mongolian loanwords in the Kipchak Turkic languages Tatar and Bashkir of the Volga area. After the sudden rise of the Chingisid Empire, Middle Mongolian exerted a vehement influence on the languages spoken in the subdued territories. This was the case even in the north-western most part of the empire. Tatar and Bashkir borrowed numerous Middle Mongolian words that reflect the culture of the Mongols of that age. In the following centuries, this vocabulary underwent significant changes in phonetics, morphology, semantics, and stylistic values. Middle Mongolian is reflected differently even in the languages of the socalled Altaic family. The author examines changes on both the Mongolian and the Kipchak side. The material provides valuable data that document important processes of the language history of the region. The book tries to capture characteristic elements of a language contact that has resulted in a variety of substantial loans belonging to many different semantic layers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haiku, Other Arts, and Literary Disciplines investigates the genesis and development of haiku in Japan and determines the relationships between haiku and other arts, such as essay writing, painting, and music, as well as the backgrounds of haiku, such as literary movements, philosophies, and religions that underlie haiku composition.

Western poets had a demonstrated affinity for Japanese haiku which bled over into other art mediums, as these chapters discuss.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropology has also aimed at evaluating social problems with anthropological data, perspectives, theories, and techniques at the societial level and aiming to produce, evaluate, and solve social problems. In light of all this information, we can say that anthropology is a scientific discipline that introduces man, man to every direction. Anthropology is the most basic science that widened the point of view of human beings through the interdisciplinary field of study, gives the ability to evaluate natural events from prejudices, and answers the questions of why, why, when, how, and where. Archeology means “Ancient science” with the word meaning. The archaeological study of all kinds of artifacts that have remained everyday from ancient times is in the study area. Pottery includes minerals and terracotta figurines, weapons, tools, coins, cut stones, all kinds of things that people use daily, ornamental items, jewelry seals, and bulls archeology’s small works of art. This book is an entryway to start looking at the old practices and rethink of them for the fast approaching future.

Download or read book Sites of Asian Interaction written by Tim Harper and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A focus on the sites of Asian interaction enables this volume to shed new light on the growing field of diaspora studies. Research on Asia's many diasporas has enriched the older literature on migration to illuminate the links of kinship, affect, trade, and information that connect locations across Asia, and beyond. But where many recent works on particular diasporas have tended to look inwards - at how distinctive diasporic cultures maintained a sense of 'home' while abroad - the volume's focus has been on how different diasporas have come into contact with each other in particular places, often for the first time. It also engages with research in the fields of urban studies and urban history. The articles develop the already rich historical literature on port cities across Asia – the quintessential sites of Asian cosmopolitanism – as well as more recent work on the 'moving metropolises' and 'mobile cities' of contemporary Asia.

Download or read book The Routledge Global Haiku Reader written by James Shea and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Global Haiku Reader provides a historical overview and comprehensive examination of haiku across the world in numerous languages, poetic movements, and cultural contexts. Offering an extensive critical perspective, this volume provides leading essays by poets and scholars who explore haiku’s various global developments, demonstrating the form’s complex and sometimes contradictory manifestations from the twentieth century to the present. The sixteen chapters are carefully organized into categories that reflect the salient areas of practice and study: Haiku in Transit, Haiku and Social Consciousness, Haiku and Experimentation, and The Future of Global Haiku. An insightful introduction surveys haiku’s influence beyond Japan and frames the collection historically and culturally, questioning commonly held assumptions about haiku and laying the groundwork for new ways of seeing the form. Haiku’s elusiveness, its resistance to definition, is partly what keeps it so relevant today, and this book traces the many ways in which this global verse form has evolved. The Routledge Global Haiku Reader ushers haiku into the twenty-first century in a critically minded and historically informed manner for a new generation of readers and writers and will appeal to students and researchers in Asian studies, literary studies, comparative literature, creative writing, and cultural studies
