Download or read book Maintaining Long Distance and Cross Residential Relationships written by Laura Stafford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-12-13 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thought-provoking volume offers an innovative and intriguing approach to the study of long-distance relationships. Author Laura Stafford examines romantic long-distance relationships and then expands the conception of long-distance relationships to include other relational types. She summarizes literature across the social sciences on various types of long-distance relationships and extracts themes and patterns across the relational types. In so doing, she reconsiders approaches to and offers an expanded vision of relational maintenance. By expanding her scope beyond romantic relationships, Stafford includes those that span residences and relational types, such as noncustodial parent-child and geographically and residentially separated adult children and parents. She contends that face-to-face interaction is not necessary to maintain healthy relationships, and questions the assumption that maintaining, rather than terminating, a particular relationship is always best for the involved parties. With its interdisciplinary approach to challenging commonly held assumptions about communication and close relationships, Maintaining Long-Distance and Cross-Residential Relationships will be engaging reading for scholars in communication, psychology, sociology, mass communication, and family studies. It is also appropriate for special topics graduate courses on long-distance relationships and human communication, and will serve as a unique supplemental text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in interpersonal, relational, and family communication and family studies.

Download or read book Making Integral written by Benjamin Keatinge and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Murphy's poetry is central to the evolution of Irish poetry since 1950. These original essays offer new insights into Murphy's poetic preoccupations - love and loss, nature and solitude, history and inheritance - showing how Richard Murphy's life and work follow the contours of modern Ireland. With the publication of The Pleasure Ground: Poems 1952-2012 (2013) and the reissue of his celebrated memoir The Kick (Cork UP, 2017), this is a timely reconsideration of an important Irish poet. Sometimes viewed as a poet of two traditions who, in his own words, sought 'to unite my divided self in our divided country', Richard Murphy (1927-2018) also engages with urgent contemporary themes: sexual and social identities, ecological crisis, postcolonial inheritance and the origins of conflict on the island of Ireland. In essays by leading scholars from Ireland, Britain and the USA, this book broadens the contexts by which Murphy's poetic achievement can be interpreted and it addresses evolving issues in Irish literary studies: representations of violence, islands and archipelagos, the use of radio as medium, built heritage and the environment, and the aftermath of conflict. Richard Murphy's work is also viewed in relation to his contemporaries: Ted Hughes, Theodore Roethke, Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell and Philip Larkin. Widely-debated topics in literary studies are explored including postcolonial theory, ecopoetics, theories of gender and sexuality, and autobiography/memoir. Richard Murphy emerges as a contemporary voice whose poetry is central to an understanding of modern Ireland.

Download or read book A Field Guide to Happiness written by Linda Leaming and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the West, we have everything we could possibly need or want—except for peace of mind. So writes Linda Leaming, a harried American who traveled from Nashville, Tennessee, to the rugged Himalayan nation of Bhutan—sometimes called the happiest place on Earth—to teach English and unlearn her politicized and polarized, energetic and impatient way of life. In Bhutan, if I have three things to do in a week, it’s considered busy. In the U.S., I have at least three things to do between breakfast and lunch. After losing her luggage immediately upon arrival, Leaming realized that she also had emotional baggage—a tendency toward inaction, a touch of self-absorption, and a hundred other trite, stupid, embarrassing, and inconsequential things—that needed to get lost as well. Pack up ideas and feelings that tie you down and send you lead-footed down the wrong path. Put them in a metaphorical suitcase and sling it over a metaphorical bridge in your mind. Let the river take them away. Forced by circumstance and her rustic surroundings to embrace a simplified life, Leaming made room for more useful beliefs. The thin air and hard climbs of her mountainous commute put her deeply in touch with her breath, helping her find focus and appreciation. The archaic, glacially paced bureaucracy of a Bhutanese bank taught her to go with the flow—and take up knitting. The ancient ritual of drinking tea brought tranquility, friendship, and, eventually, a husband. Each day, and each adventure, in her adopted home brought new insights and understandings to take back to frantic America, where she now practices the art of "simulating Bhutan." This collection of stories, impressions, and suggestions is a little nudge, a push, a leg up into the rarefied air of paradise—of bright sunlight and beautiful views.

While paying due tribute to the memory of the man himself, the collection primarily seeks to establish a series of important critical perspectives through which Healy's writings can be properly viewed and assessed. Contemporary writers and poets - including Colm Tóibín, Neil Jordan, Aidan Higgins, Alannah Hopkin, Kevin Barry, Annie Proulx, Michael Longley, Roddy Doyle, Tessors from more than a dozen countries provide insight into one of Ireland's most powerful and unique literary voices. This collection is absolutely crucial for everyone interested in the work of Dermot Healy and for all devotees of Irish literature" --
