Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ranch Verses Afar on the pathless prairies The rarest of flowers abound And in the dark caves Of the valleys There is wealth that will never be found So there are sweet songs in the silence That never will melt into sound. The twilight illumines her banners With colors no artist can teach; And aloft in the sky there are sermons too mighty for mortals to preach SO life has its lovely ideals too lofty for language to reach.

Download or read book The Power of Your Past written by John P. Schuster and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover your path of personal and professional development with this practical guide to actively and purposefully engaging with your own past. Most of us don't use our yesterdays very well. With so much focus on living in the moment, we neglect to engage in creative reflection on our personal histories. In The Power Of Your Past, John Schuster demonstrates that the past is the most valuable, most accessible, and yet most under-utilized resource for anyone wanting to make positive changes. Offering a practical three-phase model for working with one’s past—Recalling, Reclaiming, and Recasting—Schuster illustrates the process with inspiring histories of those who have experienced transformative results. Schuster provides insight, encouragement, and practical steps for essential professional and personal development. Readers who follow this model will make progress in their endeavors, overcome persistent obstacles, and make decisions based on their own truth rather than relying on someone else’s.
Download or read book Literary Nevada written by Cheryll Glotfelty and published by University of Nevada Press. This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 831 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 200 writings about Nevada with selections from Native American tales to contemporary writings on urban experience and environmental concerns. The state of Nevada embodies paradox and contradiction—home to one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation and to isolated ranches scattered across a sparsely populated backcountry. Nevada is a place where the lust for sudden wealth has prompted both wild mining booms and glittering casinos, and where forbidding atomic test sites coexist with alluring tourist meccas. The variety and distinctiveness of Nevada’s landscape and peoples have inspired writers from the beginning of immigrant contact with the region. This contact has produced abundant literary wealth that includes the rich oral traditions of Native American peoples and an amazing spectrum of contemporary voices. Literary Nevada is the first comprehensive literary anthology of Nevada. It contains over 200 selections ranging from traditional Native American tales, explorers’ and emigrants’ accounts, and writing from the Comstock Lode and other mining boomtowns, as well as compelling fiction, poetry, and essays from throughout the state’s history. There is work by well-known Nevada writers such as Sarah Winnemucca, Mark Twain, and Robert Laxalt, by established and emerging writers from all parts of the state, and by some nonresident authors whose work illuminates important facets of the Nevada experience. The book includes cowboy poetry, travel writing, accounts of nuclear Nevada, narratives about rural life and urban life in Las Vegas and Reno, poetry and fiction from the state’s best contemporary writers, and accounts of the special beauty of wild Nevada’s mountains and deserts. Editor Cheryll Glotfelty provides insightful introductions to each section and author. The book also includes a photo gallery of selected Nevada writers and a generous list of suggested further readings. Nevada has inspired an exceptionally rich panorama of fine writing and a dazzling array of literary voices. The selections in Literary Nevada will engage and delight readers while revealing the complex and exciting diversity of the state’s history, people, and life.
Download or read book Translators Have Their Say written by Abdel Wahab Khalifa and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2014 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To address the idea of agency in translation is to highlight the interplay of power and ideology: what gets translated or not and why a text is translated is mainly a matter of exercising power or reflecting authority. The contributions in this book serve as an attempt to understand the complex nature of agency in terms of its relation to agents of translation; the role of translatorial agents and the way they exercise their agency in (de)constructing narratives of power and identity; and the influence of translatorial agency on the various processes of translation and hence on the final translation product as well.

Translating across Cultures and Societies - Vol. 10) [Subject: Translation Studies, Linguistics]
Download or read book Billy the Kid written by Richard W. Etulain and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A central character in legends and histories of the Old West, Billy the Kid rivals such western icons as Jesse James and General George Armstrong Custer for the number of books and movies his brief, violent life inspired. Billy the Kid: A Reader’s Guide introduces readers to the most significant of these written and filmed works. Compiled and written by a respected historian of the Old West and author of a masterful new biography of Billy the Kid, this reader’s guide includes summaries and evaluations of biographies, histories, novels, and movies, as well as archival sources and research collections. Surveying newspaper articles, books, pamphlets, essays, and book chapters, Richard W. Etulain traces the shifting views of Billy the Kid from his own era to the present. Etulain’s discussion of novels and movies reveals a similar shift, even as it points out both the historical inaccuracies and the literary and cinematic achievements of these works. A brief section on the authentic and supposed photographs of the Kid demonstrates the difficulties specialists and collectors have encountered in locating dependable photographic sources. This discerning overview will guide readers through the plethora of words and images generated by Billy the Kid’s life and legend over more than a century. It will prove invaluable to those interested in the demigods of the Old West—and in the ever-changing cultural landscape in which they appear to us.
