Download or read book Diaspora in the Countryside written by Royden Loewen and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2006-12-15 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1930s to the 1980s, the North American countryside faced a profound cultural transformation in which a once-unified rural society became fragmented and dispersed. Families wishing to remain on the farm were required to accept new levels of automation, while others, unwilling or unable to make the change, migrated to nearby towns or regional cities. The cultural reformulation that resulted saw the emergence of a genuine rural diaspora. The growing cultural and physical separation was especially true for close-knit, ethno-religious communities, Mennonites, in particular. Forced into regional cities, the kaleidoscopic urban culture further fragmented the Mennonites into disparate social entities. In Diaspora in the Countryside, the phenomena of rural fragmentation is examined by comparing and contrasting two closely-related but distinctive Dutch-Russian Mennonite communities located in different parts of the continent: Kansas and Manitoba, respectively. By systematically comparing these communities, two distinctive responses to the mid-twentieth century 'Great Disjuncture' are made apparent. Royden Loewen also contrasts the cultural changes of these farm families to the cultures their kin adopted in nearby towns and cities. Loewen charts not only the dispersion of two rural communities, but follows their former residents as they reformulate their lives in new settings.

Book excerpt: The Long Wait - Sophia J A heart-wrenching love story, one that will pull at your soul strings... Spanning two decades, this is the story of Tony Lazarus and Rini Franklin. A high-school romance... leading to an unforgettable saga of love, heartache and sacrifice! It is love in its purest and most sublime form: a love that is addictive, beautiful, crazy and passionate! However, it doesn't seem to be enough to sustain their relationship... It gives way, under the burden of parental pressure and societal standards. They shoulder the anguish of separation; sacrificing their desires, emotions and very souls... Fate, however, gives them neither happiness nor peace, in their individual journeys. They face conflict, disharmony, emotional trauma and infidelity... In the process of trying to make a life each, without the other. Trying to find solutions of their own, and dealing with their issues... they stay independent, resolute and true to their faith and values! In all the chaos... the only thing that remains untouched is their love... this kind of love could only be between 'Soulmates' or 'Twinflames'. They seem to be 'twin souls' or 'mirror souls'... that can sense each other's feelings, emotions and pain... even in separation! More than a decade after they walk away from each other - life seems to give them a second chance; though complicated by anger management, broken relationships, social stigma, and much more... A story that makes you think of your first love... your one true love. A story that makes you believe that: 'Love Never Fails, Love Never Gives Up, Love Never Ends'.
