Download or read book Carpetbagger s Crusade written by Otto H. Olsen and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2019-12-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1965. The Supreme Court's momentous school desegregation decision of 1954 was a postmortem victory for Albion Tourgée. Just fifty-eight years earlier this once-famous carpetbagger's attack on segregation was crushed in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson. His legal defeat in 1896 typified his frustrated but prophetic career. Tourgée was an idealistic Union veteran who ventured south in 1865. As an advocate of civil rights, political equality, free schools, and penal reform, he was elected to North Carolina's Constitutional Convention of 1868. Olsen records both the fierce struggles and the impressive accomplishments that filled Tourgée's fourteen years in the South. With the collapse of the Southern experiment, Tourgée was inspired to turn to fiction to express his convictions. A Fool's Errand by One of the Fools and Bricks without Straw were classics of their day, providing absorbing accounts and defenses of radical Reconstruction. In 1879 Tourgée went north, where he renewed and extended his crusade for Negro equality by writing, lecturing, and lobbying. For many years he was the most militant and persistent advocate of racial equality in the nation. He was also a vigorous critic of the industrial age, demanding the utilization of federal power in behalf of equality, democracy, and economic justice.

Download or read book The Bodies of Others written by José A. Sánchez and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available in English for the first time, The Bodies of Others investigates, through a series of close readings of several theatrical and film productions in Europe and South America, the relationship between “representation” (including theatrical representation) and ethics (defined as an ongoing relational negotiation, as opposed to a set of universal moral laws). The main concepts are exposed through a comparative analysis of historical processes, political actions and artistic works from different periods. Thus, the dialogue between the film La carrose d'or by Jean Renoir (1952) and Rosa Cuchillo by Yuyachkani (2006) serves to address the problem of the multiple meanings of representation. The dialogue between the play El Señor Galíndez by Eduardo Pavlovsky (1973), the performance The Conquest of America by Las Yeguas del Apocalipsis (1989) and the novel 2666 (2004) by Roberto Bolaño allows the concept of an 'ethic of the body' to be addressed. Other key concepts such as identity, care, cruelty, violence, memory and testimony are considered through investigation of work such as Angelica Liddel's theatre pieces, Rabih Mroué and Lina Majdalanie's performances, Albertina Carri, Basilio Martín Patino and Apichatpong Weerasethakul's films, and Mapa Teatro's trans-disciplinary creations.

Set in the late 19th century, the book follows the noble protagonist, Frank Merriwell, as he navigates challenges and overcomes obstacles through his determination and integrity. Standish's writing style is both captivating and timeless, providing readers with a vivid portrayal of the era's values and ideals. The book's fast-paced narrative keeps readers engaged from beginning to end, making it a classic in the realm of young adult fiction. Standish's emphasis on principles such as bravery and sportsmanship adds depth to the storyline, making it a must-read for those interested in literary works that convey important moral lessons. Burt L. Standish, also known as Gilbert Patten, drew upon his own experiences and observations to create the character of Frank Merriwell, reflecting his belief in the power of character and determination.

I highly recommend 'Frank Merriwell's Alarm; Or, Doing His Best' to readers seeking an exciting and morally uplifting literary experience that transcends time and generations.
