Download or read book The Lost Woods written by H. William Rice and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection that follows the lives of two families who own land and hunt in rural South Carolina The Lost Woods is a collection of fifteen short stories, most of them set in and around the fictional small town of Sledge, South Carolina. The events narrated in the stories begin in the 1930s and continue to the present day. The stories aren't accounts of hunting methods or legends of trophy kills—they are serious stories about hunting that are similar in style to William Faulkner's Go Down, Moses. The collection traces the evolution of two families—the Whites and the Chapmans—as well as the changes in hunting and land use of the past eighty years. Some of these stories are narrated in third person; others are told by a wide range of characters, from grown men and women to children, but only from one perspective—that of the hunter. As they walk the woods in search of turkeys, deer, or raccoons, these characters seek something more than food. They seek a lost connection to some part of themselves. The title "the lost woods" is adapted from Cherokee myths and stories wherein people must return again and again to the woods to find animals that were lost. Thereby, we find not only food, but who we are. Through these stories Rice reminds us that hunting is inextricably entwined with identity. As one of the oldest rituals that we as a species know, it reflects both our nobility and our depravity. Through it we return again and again to find the lost woods inside ourselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our president knows it, our parents know it, and our children know it: education is the single most important key to achieving success in todays competitive world. In this handbook, a seasoned professor combines ideas from teachers across the nation with research and insight gathered from his own classroom experiences to share a compelling narrative on what works and does not work in todays public education system. Dr. Otto E. Arschdorn, who taught in Germany and the United States, offers a provocative perspective on American public education that he hopes will become a wake-up call that our system of learning needs to be transformed. As he examines life inside the classroom, Dr. Arschdorn offers thoughtful opinions on teaching methodologies that work in the classroom; ways to motivate unmotivated students; why schools should consider implementing a three-branch educational approach; how to stop disenchanted parents from taking control; and why critical thinking and problem solving are at the center of academic existence. Voice of Pedagogy provides a platform for American teachers to offer ideas for positive change in our public school system so that we can meet the educational challenges of the future and continue to be a country of free thinkers.
