Download or read book Notes from the Minefield written by Irene L. Gendzier and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide-reaching analysis of post-World War II U.S. policy in Lebanon posits that the politics of oil and pipelines figured far more significantly in U.S. relations with Lebanon than previously believed. By reevaluating U.S.-Lebanese relations within the context of America's collaborative intervention with the Lebanese ruling elite, Gendzier aptly demonstrates how oil, power, and politics drove U.S. policy as well as influenced the development of the state and region of Lebanon.
Download or read book Navigating the Minefield written by Michaele Whelan and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Hawkes, an anomalous postmodernist, has been uneasily grouped with John Fowles, Thomas Pynchon, and Julio Cortazar, but his works are more often examined alone. Primarily surveys, studies of Hawkes's works tend to become catalogues of the grotesque, the perverse, and the taboo. As a means of navigating Hawkesian texts of fragments, gaps, and split narrators, this study provides a new theoretical approach that combines psychoanalytic thought and gendered narratology. It identifies and examines structures of deformation - deformation of vision, affect, and subjugation in Hawkes's highly stylized and self-conscious first-person narratives."

Download or read book Encountering the Parables in Contexts Old and New written by T. E. Goud and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to this book pursue three important lines of inquiry into parable study, in order to illustrate how these lessons have been received throughout the millennia. The contributors consider not only the historical and material world of the parables' composition, and focusing on the social, political, economic, and material reality of that world, but also seek to connect how the parables may have been seen and heard in ancient contexts with how they have been, and continue to be, seen and heard. Intentionally allowing for a “bounded openness” of approach and interpretation, these essays explore numerous contexts, encounters and responses. Examining topics ranging from ancient harvest imagery and dependency relations to contemporary experience with the narratives and lessons of the parables, this volume seeks to link those very real ancient contexts with our own varied modern contexts.

Download or read book Stepping Into A Minefield written by Ian Mansfield and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-09-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ian Mansfield was serving in the Australian Army when he was selected to command a team of Australian combat engineers to go to Pakistan to train Afghan refugees in mine-clearance procedures. With millions of refugees expected to return to Afghanistan, the United Nations saw a humanitarian crisis looming and requested help from Western countries to tackle the landmine problem. In September 1991, Ian, along with his wife and two young children, left Australia on a one-year assignment … and didn’t return home for 20 years. This highly personal account recalls Ian’s pioneering efforts to set up a civilian program in Afghanistan to clear landmines for humanitarian purposes, and then his decision to leave the Australian Army and join the United Nations. He continued to work in the mine-action sector, setting up programs in Laos and Bosnia, and then working at the policy level at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Stepping into a Minefield highlights the dangers and the tragedies involved in landmine clearance, but also reveals the great humanity, dedication and humour of the thousands of brave men and women clearing landmines today. It also outlines the political, cultural and security ‘minefields’ that Ian had to navigate along the way, which were often more difficult to deal with than the real minefields.

So he turned to newspaper reporter Ana Burns, hoping that her skill at asking nosy questions about him and his mission could be put to better use. Flora quickly captured Ana's heart. As did Sam and his dream of providing a haven for children with nowhere else to go. Ana's questions were soon answered—and worst fears confirmed—about little Flora. And protecting her and the center from a powerful predator would take all their love and faith combined.

Book excerpt: Meet Bill Duncan, the well-respected Deputy Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney for Jefferson County and the central figure in this legal mystery, which begins with the trial of a violent criminal with a secret and shady past. When Duncan takes over the case from a dubious colleague, he faces a slick defense attorney and a petulant judge. He ultimately wins a conviction, only to be swept up in post-trial accusations of fraud and malfeasance before becoming the prime suspect in a murder case. Restitution traces Duncan’s efforts to clear himself, and along the way he encounters insidious power deep inside the government and shocking betrayal from those he loved and trusted. The story culminates with his exoneration and an ultimate recognition of his own desires, weaknesses and beliefs. “An ex-prosecutor, Moriarty knows his way around the courthouse and the courtroom, and he brings both alive with a thrilling story and memorable characters.” —James Irving, author of the Joth Proctor Mystery Series. “Restitution is a page-turner that grabs you with the opening chapter and doesn’t let go. Stephen Moriarty takes you from the secretive back rooms of the judicial system that he knows from personal experience as a prosecutor to the heights of international intrigue with an ending that surprises, shocks and makes you eager for his next novel.” —Molly Moore, former court reporter for The Washington Post and author of A Woman at War: Storming Kuwait with the U.S. Marines.
