Download or read book Post Punk Then and Now written by Sue Clayton and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What were the conditions of possibility for art and music-making before the era of neoliberal capitalism? What role did punk play in turning artists to experiment with popular music in the late 1970s and early 1980s? And why does the art and music of these times seem so newly pertinent to our political present, despite the seeming remoteness of its historical moment? Focusing upon the production of post-punk art, film, music, and publishing, this book offers new perspectives on an overlooked period of cultural activity, and probes the lessons that might be learnt from history for artists and musicians working under 21st century conditions of austerity. Contemporary reflections by those who shaped avant-garde and contestatory culture in the UK, US, Brazil and Poland in the 1970s and 1980s. Alongside these are contributions by contemporary artists, curators and scholars that provide critical perspectives on post-punk then, and its generative relation to the aesthetics and politics of cultural production today.

Download or read book From Then til Now written by Carol Peterson and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have felt for many years that there have perhaps never been a 75 to 100 years that have seen so much progress and change, both for good and bad. Life has always been mixed with both good times and bad times, and so it will until the Lord returns. But this type of good and bad is not what I am writing about. In the horse and buggy era and early years of the car, there were a lot of hard times: poverty, sickness, and epidemics, but by and large, the moral fiber of most people was much better than now. There are many things to blame, but the sad part of this is that I believe the Christians are the most to blame for not getting involved. The scapegoat idea: it's all in the Lord's hands, we don't have to worry or do anything. In the meantime, much has happened because of the ACLU, our court system, the pressure of the entertainment world and the Democratic party, and too many Republicans voting wrong. It is already illegal for the kids to pray in school or even take their Bible to school. They are trying to get "In God We Trust" off our money and take for God and Country out of the Pledge of Allegiance However, I feel there is a trend now of thinking seriously about God and morals and hard work, and there will have to be if this world is going to last. So I am dedicating this to my nine children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and anyone who reads it that it will help them see what a change has taken place in the 1900's and that it might help them on the road of life, plus hopefully bring some enjoyment.

Download or read book The 10 Commandments Then and Now written by Robert M. West and published by Barbour Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most everyone’s heard of the Ten Commandments, but what are they really all about? Find out with The Ten Commandments—Then and Now. This new study views God’s ancient law, handed down to Moses at Mount Sinai, from the perspective of twenty-first century Christian faith. The Ten Commandments contain both timeless moral laws and rules that help us understand and relate to God. The apostle Paul said, “We know that the law is good if a man uses it properly” (1 Timothy 1:8 niv)—and since Jesus came to “fulfill the law” (Matthew 5:17), a study of the Ten Commandments can reveal truths to encourage, challenge, and build us up in our faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Felix, a Jewish boy in Poland in 1942, is hiding from the Nazis in a Catholic orphanage. The only problem is that he doesn't know anything about the war, and thinks he's only in the orphanage while his parents travel and try to salvage their bookselling business. And when he thinks his parents are in danger, Felix sets off to warn them--straight into the heart of Nazi-occupied Poland. To Felix, everything is a story: Why did he get a whole carrot in his soup? It must be sign that his parents are coming to get him. Why are the Nazis burning books? They must be foreign librarians sent to clean out the orphanage's outdated library. But as Felix's journey gets increasingly dangerous, he begins to see horrors that not even stories can explain. Despite his grim suroundings, Felix never loses hope. Morris Gleitzman takes a painful subject and expertly turns it into a story filled with love, friendship, and even humor.
