This book was released on 2021-02-24 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Proper Study of Religion, Sam Gill charts an innovative course of development for the academic study of religion by engaging the legacy of Jonathan Z. Smith, Gill's teacher and mentor for fifty years. Building on Smith's foundational legacy through creative encounters, Gill explores an extensive range of absorbing topics including: comparison as essential to academic technique and to human knowledge itself; play, philosophically understood, as a coredynamic of Smith's entire program; the relationship of academic document-based studies to the sensory-rich real world of religions; and self-moving as providing a biological and philosophical foundation on which to develop and expand upon a proper academic study of religion.

Download or read book Investigated Reporting written by Chad Raphael and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2005-09-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigated Reporting is Chad Raphael's ambitious exploration of the relationship between journalism and regulation during American television's first sustained period of muckraking, between 1960 and 1975. Offering new and important insights into the economic, political, and industrial forces that shaped documentaries such as Harvest of Shame, Hunger in America, and Banks and the Poor, Raphael puts investigative television documentary into its institutional, regulatory, and cultural context.Those who see investigative reporting as a watchdog on government will be surprised to find that these controversial reports relied heavily on official sources for inspiration, information, and regulatory protection from muckraking's critics. Based on superb historical research using primary sources, including recently opened papers from the Nixon White House, Raphael exposes the complex play of influence through which investigative documentaries were both shaped and attacked by government officials, and highlights the troubling legacy for contemporary regulation of television news.Chad Raphael is an associate professor of communication at Santa Clara University.A volume in The History of Communication series, edited by Robert W. McChesney and John C. Nerone

Download or read book Truth or Consequences written by M. Dunn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1990-10-31 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this collection are written by students, colleagues, and friends of Nuel Belnap to honor him on his sixtieth birthday. Our original plan was to include pieces from fonner students only, but we have deviated from this ever so slightly for a variety of personal and practical reasons. Belnap's research accomplishments are numerous and well known: He has founded (together with Alan Ross Anderson) a whole branch of logic known as "relevance logic." He has made contributions of fundamental importance to the logic of questions. His work in modal logic, fonnal pragmatics, and the theory of truth has been highly influential. And the list goes on. Belnap's accomplishments as a teacher are also distinguished and well known but, by virtue of the essential privacy of the teaching relationship, not so well understood. We would like to reflect a little on what makes him such an outstanding teacher.
Download or read book The Archaeology of Knowledge written by Michel Foucault and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-07-11 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge—are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge begins at the level of "things aid" and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal. A summing up of Foucault's own methadological assumptions, this book is also a first step toward a genealogy of the way we live now. Challenging, at times infuriating, it is an absolutey indispensable guide to one of the most innovative thinkers of our time.

Download or read book American Miler written by Paul Kiell, M.D. and published by Breakaway Books. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glenn Cunningham set the world record for the mile in the 1930s. But as a boy, he had been terribly burned in a schoolhouse fire, a fire that took the life of his older brother Floyd. And that is when Glenn’s life quest began. He was bed-ridden for months. The doctors thought he might never walk again. But he recovered, slowly, agonizingly, with fierce determination—and within a year was both walking and running. Huge burn scars covered his legs. In high school, he was a champion athlete, and set a world high school record in the mile. He went on to be one of America’s greatest runners, setting records and winning races with astonishing ease. His story, however, is now largely forgotten—but it is an inspiring and timeless one that bears telling in our modern age. Throughout the book there is a portrait of sportsmanship and decency rarely seen these days. And how Glenn Cunningham spent his life after track is just as inspiring as his accomplishments on the track. Paul Kiell has created a detailed, dramatic biography of this extraordinary American athlete. “American Miler inspires while capturing the power of the human spirit! Kiell’s prose and accompanying period photographs vividly chronicle Cunningham’s heroic determination in the face of physical challenge. A great American story of forging strength from hardship.” —Trisha Meili, author, I Am the Central Park Jogger: A Story of Hope and Possibility “Dr. Kiell has written the definitive biography of a giant figure in American sport who became a vital influence in many young lives.” —Robert J. Corrigan, author, Tracking Heroes: 13 Track & Field Champions “Glenn Cunningham refused to let adversity keep him from his goals. His life is an inspiration to athletes in any sport, and to anyone with the will to succeed in the face of overwhelming odds. Thank you, Dr. Kiell, for sharing his story so beautifully.” —Richard Traum, Ph.D., Founder and CEO, Achilles Track Club “Dr. Kiell’s comprehensive portrayal of Glenn’s outstanding athletic career and personal life enables the reader to appreciate the exploits and character of this great American hero—Cunningham the athlete and Cunningham the man.” —Howard Schmertz, Millrose Games Meet Director Emeritus “American Miler has brought my teammate back to life: The race is on. I feel again the ache of muscle, the sear of lung, the sting of cinders as we stride. I hear, too, our cheering Jayhawks urging Glenn to yet another record; and I remember Cunningham as a friend, the noblest of the best.” —Paul Borel, former classmate and teammate of Glenn Cunningham
Download or read book Italian Communism in Transition written by Stephen Hellman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1988-09-08 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1970s, the Italian Communist Party (PCI) almost succeeded in entering the national government; however, by the end of the decade its popularity had dramatically declined. Providing a first-hand view of the turbulent period from 1975 to 1980, this book explains the roots of the party's crisis. First looking at local conditions, the author studies a number of major developments in the city of Turin, from Red Brigade terrorism to the historic defeat of the unions at Fiat in 1980, and then sets these local events within the broader national strategy. Hellman, who has been studying the PCI since the late 1960s, systematically interviewed the entire full-time leadership of the Turinese Federation of the party, and attended regular meetings and activities from the grass roots to the summit of local organization. An unprecedented eyewitness account, Italian Communism in Transition is a complete history of the PCI's response to the crises and challenges of the 1970s.
