Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Can a Pot Say About a Kettle? A Play By: Craig Attaway What Can a Pot Say About a Kettle? A Play by: Craig Anthony Attaway is the story of a heavy-handed single mother of three young men. Her name is Ms. LuPearl. Not only does LuPearl have the weight of the world on her shoulders, the burden that all mothers bear, she’s also hampered by maternal instinct to navigate her three now adult sons through the many pitfalls of life. This navigation is less solicited than unsolicited. LuPearl’s eldest, Donovan (twenty-eight) is away in the military and owes $10,000 in child-support. Her middle son, Franklin, (twenty-three) is an over-achieving college R.O.T.C. cadet who only returns home for funerals. Then her youngest, Zharquaviyont, (seventeen) struggles with sexual identity issues. He has no future plans whatsoever. LuPearl’s ex-husband, whom she divorced many years ago, has passed away and designated her the executor of his will and funeral arrangements… much to the displeasure of her four former sisters-in-law. However, fret not for Ms. LuPearl. For she is a worshiper.

Download or read book Colouring Meaning written by Gill Philip and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02-23 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primarily focused on idioms and other figurative phraseology, Colouring Meaning describes how the meanings of established phrases are enhanced, refocused and modified in everyday language use. Unlike many studies of creativity in language, this book-length survey addresses the matter at several levels, from the purely linguistic level of collocation, through its abstractions in colligation and semantic preference, to semantic prosody and connotation. This journey through both linguistic and cognitive levels involves the examination of habitual language and its exploitations, both mundane and colourful, explaining the phenomena observed in terms of current psycholinguistic research as well as corpus linguistics theory and analysis. The relationships between meaning in text and meaning in the mind are discussed at length and extensively illustrated with worked case studies to offer the reader a comprehensive overview of metaphorical and other secondary meanings as they emerge in real-world communicative situations.

Download or read book Best Fairy Tales written by Hans Christian Andersen and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniquely inventive and vivacious in style and with deep insight into children's points of view, Hans Christian Andersen established a new genre in literature. Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition of Best Fairy Tales uses the classic translation by Jean Hersholt and is illustrated by various artists, with an afterword by Ned Halley. Hans Christian Andersen was a profoundly imaginative writer and storyteller who gave us the now standard versions of some traditional fairy tales - with an anarchic twist - but many of his most famous tales sprang directly from his imagination. The thirty stories here range from exuberant early works such as 'The Tinderbox' and 'The Emperor's New Clothes' through poignant masterpieces such as 'The Little Mermaid', 'The Little Match Girl' and 'The Ugly Duckling', to more subversive later tales such as 'The Ice Maiden' and 'The Dryad'.

Download or read book Everyone Remembers the Play written by Barbara Peart-James and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-11 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Be sure to visit the official website: EveryoneRemembersThePlay.com ! Millions of people have become bored going through the routine church services, listening to the same presentations over and over. In Everyone Remembers the Play, you will see a collection of five Bible stories or Bible principles with a modern-day twist to them. As you read these plays, be prepared for an adventurous encounter. These plays are based on the stories of: The Prodigal Son – Initially, Sister Perla refuses to forgive Brother Brown for leaving the church for so many years, but she recognizes that she needs forgiveness herself when she realizes that she was the lost coin. The Good Samaritan – Unlike the pastor and the elder, the Rasta-man shows that he understands the true meaning of service when he cancels his business appointment to tend to the injured victim. The Christian Dress – Some liberal Christians are convinced that although their hearts are in the right place, they also need to look different from the rest of the world by displaying modesty in their dress. Adam and Eve – Obedience is the key to worshipping God. Adam and Eve tried to take advantage of God’s mercy and found themselves on the other side of the border. Ananias, Sapphira, and the Rich Fool – A rich couple learns a valuable lesson about thanksgiving and stewardship from the Rich Fool. The plays are suitable for main church services, camps, retreats, Bible studies, bedtime stories, or just about any occasion. As you read along, you will get a more practical understanding of the Bible, because no matter how exceptional the preacher is, few will recall the sermon, but Everyone Remembers the Play.
