Book excerpt: Ten Classics is an in-depth look into the intricacies that went into making of ten legendary Hindi movies−milestones in the history of Indian cinema. Surprising and intriguing facts, the filmmakers’ inspiration behind making them, the conceptualization and actual filming, dotted with anecdotes, incidents, events and trivia surrounding the process of making each of the films, are narrated as recalled by the actual people involved, or someone closely associated with these films. Painstakingly researched and fascinating to read, the book sheds light on factors that make these ten films the classics that they are today. A film journalist for over 23 years, Authors familiarity with the craft of filmmaking adds depth and colour to the perspective. Interesting facts like: Why Mughal-e-Azam took 16 long years to be completed and who the mystery financier was, who invested his trust and money in it, even though the delay had sent its budget skyrocketing; how Amitabh Bachchan bagged the role of Dr Bhaskar Banerjee in Anand, even though Zanjeer, which established him as an actor to reckon with, was yet to release...and many more curious questions like these are answered here. The author has selected one groundbreaking film made by each of the ten legendary directors that she had chosen to showcase. • Do Bigha Zamin • Mother India • Pyaasa • Do Aankhen Barah Haath • Mughal-e-Azam • Guide • Teesri Kasam • Pakeezah • Anand • Umrao Jaan

Download or read book Becoming Tongan written by Helen Morton and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 1996-08-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first detailed account of growing up in Tonga, Helen Morton focuses on the influence of anga fakatonga ("the Tongan way") in all facets of Tongan childhood, from the antenatal period to late adolescence. Childhood is a crucial period when cultural identity and notions of tradition are constructed, as well as beliefs about self, personhood, and emotion. Based on her anthropological fieldwork and her experiences in Tonga over several years, Morton traces the Tongan socialization process—from being vale (ignorant, socially incompetent) to becoming poto (clever, socially competent)—in fascinating detail. The socialization of emotion is also given detailed attention, especially the management of anger and emphasis on emotional restraint.

Novena Petelo Immigrant women bring to New Zealand rich experiences of lives spent in other cultures. But their stories are rarely told. In this book ten women, who have come to New Zealand through three decades from the 1960s, speak in depth about growing up in their first countries, and their lives in New Zealand. They talk about childhood, marriage, discrimination, language, their aspirations for their children, and the role of women in their first culture and in New Zealand. They also, often poignantly, point to what they cannot speak about. The ten women come from India, the Philippines, Tonga, Tokelau Islands, Chile, Iran, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Vietnam and Laos. With portraits by Gil Hanly.

This book was released on 2020-07-31 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the world, it has remained a significant challenge for women to be heard within crucial components of society. Male domination has a vast history of restricting the visibility and voices of women in areas including economics and politics. In recent years, however, those longstanding barriers are beginning to crumble as feminism and women’s rights have become vital areas of research. Understanding the importance of having a voice and its relation to the construction of women’s empowerment, as well as existing limitations in global regions, is imperative. Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Women, Voice, and Agency is a collection of innovative research on the examination of giving voice to women’s issues in the contemporary world and their increasing impact within the various pillars of society. While highlighting topics including social change, digital activism, and inclusion, this book is ideally designed for researchers, activists, policymakers, practitioners, politicians, advocates, educators, and students seeking current research on women empowerment and the interpretation of women’s voices throughout the globe.

Download or read book An Account of the Natives of the Tonga Islands in the South Pacific Ocean written by Nigel Statham and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Martin (1789-1869) was a London-based, Edinburgh-educated physician interested in anthropological matters. This is his only book. He was inspired to write it by a chance encounter with its subject, William Mariner (1791-1853) who spent four years (1806-1810) in Tonga, in the South Pacific, one of the earliest European residents at a time before European influence disturbance or modification society. Mariner, an extraordinarily mature and perceptive youth, became thoroughly imbued with Tongan language and culture as the adopted son of the most powerful chief in Tonga. Thanks to Martin’s intelligent engagement with Mariner resulted in a compelling narrative and a comprehensive account of Tongan society which became a classic. Often celebrated as an extraordinary real-life adventure story, it is a pioneering work of anthropology, and for 200 years it has been a primary and authoritative source for research into Tongan history and culture.

The second edition concludes with new reflections on how immigration and globalization have affected family, economy, tradition, political life, identity, and the practice of anthropology.

Download or read book Operation Tonga written by Jon Cooksey and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seizure of Pegasus Bridge by six glider borne platoons of the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry under Major John Howard very early 6th June 1944, is one of the better-known stories of D-Day. Landing just yards from vital bridges over the River Orne and the Caen Canal near Bnouville, Howard's men took and held the bridges in a remarkable coup de main operation with minimal casualties. The 7th Parachute Battalion dropped in soon afterwards to relieve Howard's men and the action remains, by any standards, a remarkable feat of arms. But it was only one act in a much grander production put on by 6th Airborne Division that night to secure and protect the eastern flank of the Allied landings inland from Sword, the British landing beach. Key bridges over the Dives had to be blown to foil possible German counter attacks and to north east, at Merville, a battery of guns which the allied planners thought could wreak havoc on the beaches and ships at sea, had to be eliminated. The task fell to the men of the 9th Parachute Battalion, whose actions in assaulting the Merville Battery became another D-Day epic - but for very different reasons.
