Download or read book Knowing Subjects written by Barbara Simerka and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Knowing Subjects, Barbara Simerka uses an emergent field of literary study" cognitive cultural studies"to delineate new ways of looking at early modern Spanish literature and to analyze cognition and social identity in Spain at the time. Simerka analyzes works by Cervantes and Grac -an, as well as picaresque novels and comedias. Employing an interdisciplinary approach, she brings together several strands of cognitive theory and details the synergies among neurological, anthropological, and psychological discoveries that provide new insights into human cognition.Her analysis draws on Theory of Mind, the cognitive activity that enables humans to predict what others will do, feel, think, and believe. Theory of Mind looks at how primates, including humans, conceptualize the thoughts and rationales behind other people's actions and use those insights to negotiate social relationships. This capacity is a necessary precursor to a wide variety of human interactions"both positive and negative"from projecting and empathizing to lying and cheating.Simerka applies this theory to texts involving courtship or social advancement, activities in which deception is most prevalent"and productive. In the process, she uncovers new insights into the comedia (especially the courtship drama) and several other genres of literature (including the honor narrative, the picaresque novel, and the courtesy manual). She studies the construction of gendered identity and patriarchal norms of cognition"contrasting the perspectives of canonical male writers with those of recently recovered female authors such as Mar -a de Zayas and Ana Caro. She examines the construction of social class, intellect, and honesty, and in a chapter on Don Quixote, cultural norms for leisure reading at the time. She shows how early modern Spanish literary forms reveal the relationship between an urbanizing culture, unstable subject positions and hierarchies, and social anxieties about cognition and cultural transformation.

Today, the few old cemeteries which existed in those counties in the early days are found within the borders of Cullman. The cemetery listings in this four volume set were conducted by the author beginning in 2003 and ending in early 2006. An attempt was made to personally visit every cemetery in Cullman County and record information from each readable monument. Volume 2 of this series covers alphabetically cemeteries E through G, beginning with the East Battleground Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery and concluding with the Garden City Cemetery. It also includes the large Cullman City Cemetery. The volumes are filled with photos of many of the old cemetery sites and notes describing the company and unit of most of the old Civil War era veterans. This set of books is vital to any serious student of Cullman County genealogy and history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Eye of the Storm," the tenth book in the Brothers Series and sixth in the Shamrocks Saga, continues the story begun in Shamrocks in the Heather with the on-going adventures of the younger members of the Quigley clan. World War II is over and the Quigley cousins (by whatever name they're known) are learning to live in the new, emerging world. 'The Kennison-Quigley family, now living on Long Island, is still coping with mobs attempting a takeover of Shamrocks Ltd. USA property resulting in violence and death. Will the Angels take a hand? A pleasant surprise awaits the twin couples when they discover old and new relatives in an unexpected place. This discovery will cause widespread ramifications. There's also a new wrinkle in the battle with the netherworld as the pregnant members of the family find themselves targets of demons hoping to engratiate themselves to their boss by kidnapping a Quigley child. Each of the women is tested in a different way with sometimes unexpected results. As usual, births, deaths and completely unbelievable events test the family's resolve and courage again and again. Birth is something the Archangel Za'aphi'el never imagined having to cope with. To his secret chagrin, the twins find themselves looking forward to motherhood and all that entails. What kind of mothers will the alter-egos of a high-ranking Archangel make? Their mysterious friend Andr Giroux returns and plays an important part in their ongoing story. Speculation about him continues but those in the know refuse to divulge his secret. Who is he and what effect will he have on the family? Another surprising development is the growing friendship between the twins and their supposed enemy, Beelzebub. The little demon has grown quite attached to the whole family, not to mention his growing bond with the indominable Glory. How will this change affect the outcome of the battle with Lucifer? Even Bub doesn't know. This is not a religious book nor meant to endorse or promote any type of belief. It is intended to provide a verbal roller-coaster ride. Plus, I've grown to quite like 'The Old Man. Enjoy

Book excerpt: Many a man who has an upright nature and a good disposition fails to show these facts patently to the casual observer. To Justin Alexander had been given the grace of a singularly attractive countenance. He was of a fair complexion, with light hair, a good nose slightly aquiline, and a well-shaped mouth and chin; but his charm was irrespective of feature. No one could look at him and not know him to be a man of sweet and fine honor. The gaze of his keen blue eyes—clear, though not very large—carried conviction to whomsoever it rested on that a clean and honest soul dwelt therein. Although he did not in the least realize it, this had been one of the greatest factors in any success that he had ever had, joined as it was to good judgment and great physical energy. Everyone liked him, not for what he said or did, but for what he was, and for the encouragement of his bright glance, which had a convincing and magnetic quality in it. He talked intelligently and well, although not a great deal, and among the many people who were drawn toward him a corresponding liking on his part was easily inferred. Yet he was, in fact, innately although dumbly critical; a reticent man as to his own thoughts and opinions, he took an inward measurement of persons and circumstances often the very reverse of what was supposed. This attitude of his was in no sense of the word hypocritical, it came instead from a constitutional dislike of voicing his innermost feelings. It somehow hurt him to acknowledge defects in others, and he had also an impersonal sense of justice which allowed for good qualities in those who were uncongenial to him; he did not really like the man who sat beside him, and with whom he had the prospect of being intimately associated, but even his wife had hardly divined this; certainly Joseph Leverich himself, large, jovial, and shrewd-eyed, would have been the last to suspect it.
