Download or read book Arnhem 1944 written by Dilip Sarkar and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The airborne battle for the bridges across the Rhine at Arnhem ranks amongst the Second World Wars most famous actions inspiring innumerable books and the star-studded 1977 movie. This book, however, is unique: deeply moved, the author provides a fresh narrative and approach concentrating on the tragic stories of individual casualties.These men were killed at different junctures in the fighting, often requiring forensic analysis to ascertain their fates. Wider events contextualize the authors primary focus - effectively resurrecting casualties through describing their backgrounds, previous experience, and tragic effect on their families. In particular, the emotive and unresolved issue of the many still missing is explored.During the course of his research, the author made numerous trips to Arnhem and Oosterbeek, traveled miles around the UK, and spent countless hours communicating with the relatives of casualties achieving their enthusiastic support. This detailed work, conducted sensitively and with dignity, ensures that these moving stories are now recorded for posterity.Included are the stories of Private Albert Willingham, who sacrificed his life to save civilians; Major Frank Tate, machine-gunned against the backdrop of blazing buildings around Arnhem Bridge; family man Sergeant George Thomas, whose antitank gun is displayed today outside the Airborne Museum Hartenstein, and Squadron Leader John Gilliard DFC, father of a baby son who perished flying his Stirling through a hail of shot and shell during an essential re-supply drop. Is Private Gilbert Anderson, who remains missing, actually buried as an unknown, the author asks? Representing the Poles is Lance-Corporal Czeslaw Gajewnik, who drowned whilst escaping the hell of Oosterbeek, and accounts by Dutch civilians emphasize the shared suffering sharply focussed by the tragedy of Luuk Buist, killed protecting his family. The sensitivity still surrounding German casualties is also explained.This raw, personal, side of war, the hopes and fears of ordinary men thrust into extraordinary circumstances, is both deeply moving and revealing: no longer are these just names carved on headstones or memorials in a distant land. Through this thorough investigative work, supported by those who remember them, the casualties live again, their silent voices heard through friends, relatives, comrades and unpublished letters.So, let us return to the fateful autumn of 1944, and meet those fighting in the skies, on the landing grounds, in the streets and woods of Oosterbeek, and on the bridge too far at Arnhem.Now, the casualties can tell their own stories as we join this remarkable journey of discovery.

Book excerpt: The heartbreaking true story of how a sheltered, small-town family sacrificed everything to join the Netherlands’ fiercest resistance fighters of World War II. SPRING 1940. The German Army occupies the Netherlands. No longer a theoretical conflict heard only on radio broadcasts, the war has now reached Apeldoorn. For eleven-year-old Rei Hulstein and his friends and siblings, their innocent childhoods abruptly end. When Gestapo soldiers begin to round up Dutch Jews, Rei’s father, Hendrikus, a humble furniture-maker, joins with his cohorts to form a resistance group known as The Underground. In the Hulsteins' tiny home, Rei's closet transforms into a hidden sanctuary—a secret room-between-rooms. This concealed space becomes a lifeline, providing refuge to Jewish families fleeing their occupiers during the tumultuous times of war. D-Day comes and goes, but the Second World War rages on. Will the atrocities yet to come shake Rei’s faith in his family's noble cause? A thought-provoking novel based on the author’s great-uncle Rei’s memoir, The Quiet Man, and interweaving other firsthand accounts he has gathered over the years, The Jews in Our Closet teaches the value of doing what is right and loving your neighbour, even when it costs you everything.

Download or read book Scandalous Bodies written by Smaro Kamboureli and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scandalous Bodies is an impassioned scholarly study both of literature by diasporic writers and of the contexts within which it is produced. It explores topics ranging from the Canadian government’s multiculturalism policy to media representations of so-called minority groups, from the relationship between realist fiction and history to postmodern constructions of ethnicity, from the multicultural theory of the philosopher Charles Taylor to the cultural responsibilities of diasporic critics such as Kamboureli herself. Smaro Kamboureli proposes no neat or comforting solutions to the problems she addresses. Rather than adhere to a single method of reading or make her argument follow a systematic approach, she lets the texts and the socio-cultural contexts she examines give shape to her reading. In fact, methodological issues, and the need to revisit them, become a leitmotif in the book. Theoretically rigorous and historically situated, this study also engages with close reading—not the kind that views a text as a sovereign world, but one that opens the text in order to reveal the method of its making. Her practice of what she calls negative pedagogy—a self-reflexive method of learning and unlearning, of decoding the means through which knowledge is produced—allows her to avoid the pitfalls of constructing a narrative of progress. Her critique of Canadian multiculturalism as a policy that advocates what she calls “sedative politics” and of the epistemologies of ethnicity that have shaped, for example, the first wave of ethnic anthologies in Canada are the backdrop against which she examines the various discourses that inform the diasporic experience in Canada. Scandalous Bodies was first published in 2000 and received the Gabrielle Roy Prize for Canadian Criticism.

This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deze bundel bestaat uit 9 Kerstpreken en 6 Lijdensstoffen. Hij besluit: Zo is dan door deze allerdiepste vernedering van Christus, de toorn Gods over de Zijnen geheel gestild, en voor onze gruwelijke hoogmoed volkomen voldoening gegeven, opdat wij niet verslagen worden, maar naar die stem horen: "Ik zal niet meer op u toornen." Jesaja 54. Verder weten wij nu dat onze Heere de volkomen overwinning door de dood behaald heeft. De Heere heeft hel en dood in het graf opgezocht en zo in de hel, de hel gevangen genomen, de dood gedood, het graf begraven. En ons kerkhof is de akker van de Heere. Een zaad, dat rijpt voor de eeuwigheid, heeft Zijn eigen hand er ingeworpen tot de dag van de oogst. Dan vergaderen ons Zijn heilige engelen. Is nu Christus voor ons gestorven en begraven, laat ons niet spelen met doodsbeenderen en bekkenelen. En als wij ons er mee verontreinigd hebben, laat ons niet rusten, voordat wij van dode werken gereinigd zijn, met Zijn as en met het heilige water van Zijn ontzondiging. Amen.
