Download or read book Untimely Interventions written by Ross Chambers and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2009-12-22 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As atrocity has become characteristic of modern history, testimonial writing has become a major twentieth-century genre. Untimely Interventions relates testimonial writing, or witnessing, to the cultural situation of aftermath, exploring ways in which a culture can be haunted by its own history. Ross Chambers argues that culture produces itself as civilized by denying the forms of collective violence and other traumatic experience that it cannot control. In the context of such denial, personal accounts of collective disaster can function as a form of counter-denial. By investigating a range of writing on AIDS, the First World War, and the Holocaust, Chambers shows how such writing produces a rhetorical effect of haunting, as it seeks to describe the reality of those experiences culture renders unspeakable. Ross Chambers is Professor of Romance Languages at the University of Michigan. His other books includeFacing It: AIDS Diaries and the Death of the Author.
Download or read book Painful Death written by Prince Kafain Emmanuel Mbeng Sr. and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You can choose to mourn the loss of a loved one for the rest of your life, or you can choose to memorialize only the good times you enjoyed with him or her. You can also choose to exemplify aspects of his or her life, with emphasis and direct reference to elements of an ordeal that would be correctively meaningful to the general population. I have thus chosen to give grief to those who want to continue grieving, and dramatic relief and closure to those who have chosen to remember my son, Junior, with the belief that God's time is the best! Whatever choice you make will depend on you as an individual, and I can assure you that Taku and I have chosen to focus only on the joyous days that we enjoyed with our "Junior" when we had him here with us. I therefore urge his mother and everyone else to do same, for only then would those lamentations begin to dissipate and rejuvenate continuation of the pleasures of life, after such an emotionally painful loss. The loss of a child is the most devastating experience a parent can ever bear. June 29, 2018, has now been added to the calendar for celebrations in my family, but unlike the conventional birthday celebrations, it is the day that my son, Emmanuel Kafain Mbeng Jr., famously nicknamed JUNIOR, went to be with his maker. His departure from this earth has paralyzed my zeal to live and enjoy life and brought tears of regrets to my eyes--regrets for inability to prevent his death at a time when I was supposed to need him and his brother most. He continues to live in me, and I try to visit him as many times as I can, hoping to ease my pain of loss, to be able to remain strong for all in my family who depend on me. Junior was a smart kid, who grew up to be as caring, compassionate, and partially responsible; and he was full of life, wanting to be a star in music and not in the athletic sports that he excelled in. His love of freedom drove him to do crazy adventures, just like most ambitious kids his age, but his understanding of independence, or lack thereof, was obliterated by an unproductive self-consciousness that would end his life before allowing him time to rethink it over, and leave his loved ones wondering daily what they all could have missed. Read this book to the end, even if it is just to provide yourself with experience on what to expect when you confront your kids. Of course, no matter how rambunctious your kids may be, you must never take their well-being for granted, lest you become a victim of conditional love. The loss of a child is truly devastating and a parent's worst nightmare. Prince Kafain Emmanuel Mbeng Sr. shares the loss of his son hoping that other parents can learn from his experience. You have just lost your child and gone through an emotionally draining mourning period, and the pain of the loss is with you forever. Everyone says it will go away eventually, but only you know how you feel and what you are going through, and mindful of the shortcomings of that fateful day that has become a day of reckoning and apprehension for you and your family; mindful of all parental awareness difficulties and constant fears; mindful of the challenges of overcoming the loss; and mindful of all the rants from the father, mother, and members of the community of friends and family, the loss of a child remains the worst nightmare in the life of a parent. It is with much emotional pain that the author, Prince Kafain Emmanuel Mbeng Sr. has chosen to embark on this honest declaration that should serve as a wake-up call to every parent who is taking the challenges of parenting for granted. It could be you!

Download or read book William Dawes written by Richard de Grijs and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes William Dawes’ life and professional achievements. William Dawes was a British Marine serving as the official astronomer on board the First Fleet making the 1787–1788 voyage from Britain to the new colony of New South Wales. Between 1788 and 1791, Dawes established not one but two observatories within a kilometre of Sydney’s present-day city centre, a full seven decades before the construction of Sydney’s historical Observatory at Dawes’ Point, today a stone’s throw from the Sydney Harbour Bridge. In this comprehensive biography, the authors discuss William Dawes’ life and his considerable impact—as astronomer, engineer, surveyor, ordnance officer and intellectual centre point—on the early colony in New South Wales (in essence, his impact on the earliest history of Sydney as a settlement) and, subsequently, on the British colonies of Sierra Leone on the West African coast and Antigua in the West Indies. Dawes’ life and professional achievements are closely linked to the earliest history of Sydney as a British settlement. He is often considered a man of high morals, and as such his interactions with the local populations in New South Wales, Sierra Leone and Antigua were mostly deemed respectful and above reproach. He is seen a truly enlightened individual, far ahead of his time. The authors of this book have a significant track record of successful and engaging communication of complex concepts in physics and astronomy with experts and non-experts alike. This biography touches on numerous aspects related to 18th century maritime navigation (“sailing on the stars”), societal relationships, the exploration of newly discovered lands, as well as the early history of Sydney and New South Wales, and the colonial histories of Sierra Leone and the West Indies. As such, this book will appeal to a wide range of readers, from scholars in the history of science and maritime navigation, to history enthusiasts ranging from local historians on Australia’s eastern seaboard to members of the public with a keen interest in British colonial history.
Download or read book Gustav Mahler and Hungary written by Zoltan Roman and published by Pendragon Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with his employment by a Hungarian family as piano tutor in 1879, Mahler's contacts with Hungary spanned a full quarter of a century. They included the most significant period of some three years when he directed the Royal Hungarian Opera, exercising artistic control over a major institution for the first time, and ended with his guiding from afar of an early and astonishing performance of the complete Third Symphony in Budapest in 1905. Published accounts (especially of his work between 1888 and 1891) are variously anecdotal, inaccurate or incomplete. This work, then, is the first comprehensive examination of Mahler's connections with Hungary, based on primary sources (many published in English here for the first time) and documented secondary evidence. While Chapter III, devoted to Mahler's three seasons as director, is the focus and bulk of the book, Chapters II and IV provide a socio-cultural setting for the period, essential to an understanding of his lot as opera director. The framing chapters concern Mahler's road to Budapest on the one hand, and his Hungarian contacts after 1891 on the other. With its rich offering of documents and many illustrations, this book presents a scholarly, yet highly readable and fascinating account of an important part of Mahler's life and career.

Download or read book The Moulding of Ukraine written by Kataryna Wolczuk and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a number of new states were created that had little or no claim to any previous existence. Ukraine is one of the countries that faced not only political, social and economic transformation, but also state formation and the redefinition of national identity. This book uses Ukraine as a case study in trying to trace the key moments of decision making in the course of creating a new state while shedding the legacies of "Soviet-type" statehood. The Moulding of Ukraine offers a systematic examination of competing ideological visions of statehood and discusses them against the backdrop of historical traditions in Ukraine. This well-documented and lucidly written book is the only coherent account available in English of the process of constitutional reform, offering an insight into post-Soviet Ukrainian politics. A useful addition to university course reading lists in Ukrainian studies, post-Soviet studies, post-communist democratization, comparative constitutionalism, state-building and institutional design.
