Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some 28 million people in America and 350 million people worldwide live with hearing loss. How do these people and their families cope? What are their experiences of pain, humor, and hope? What support do medicine and technology now offer them, and what is on the horizon? In this engaging and practical book, David Myers, who has himself suffered gradual hearing loss, explores the problems faced by the hard of hearing at home and at work and provides information on the new technology and groundbreaking surgical procedures that are available. Drawing on both his own experiences and his expertise as a social psychologist, Myers recounts how he has coped with hearing loss and how he has incorporated technological aids into his life. The family and friends of the hard of hearing also face adjustments. Myers addresses their situation and provides advice for them on how best to alert loved ones to a hearing problem, persuade them to seek assistance, and encourage them to adjust to and use hearing aids.

The newly appointed member of the Oxford Examinations Syndicate was deaf, provincial and gifted. Now he is dead . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Works of D. H. Lawrence is a comprehensive collection of the renowned author's literary masterpieces, showcasing his unique blend of modernist writing with themes of love, sexuality, and the human condition. Through his works, Lawrence explores the complexities of relationships, societal norms, and the inner workings of the human psyche, all written in a poetic and introspective style that captivates readers. This collection not only reflects the literary context of the early 20th century but also delves into timeless themes that continue to resonate with readers today. D. H. Lawrence, known for his controversial and trailblazing writing, drew inspiration from his own life experiences and observations of the world around him. His desire to push boundaries and challenge societal conventions led him to create works that were ahead of their time and sparked discussion and debate among readers and critics alike. I highly recommend The Complete Works of D. H. Lawrence to those who appreciate thought-provoking and introspective literature that explores the complexities of human relationships and emotions. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in delving into the mind of a literary icon who fearlessly tackled controversial topics with poetic grace and profound insight.

Book Synopsis The Eleventh Virgin by : Dorothy Day
Download or read book The Eleventh Virgin written by Dorothy Day and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2021-05-18T15:05:20Z with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Dorothy Day may be best known today for her religious peace activism and her role in founding the Catholic Worker movement, she lived a bohemian youth in the Lower West Side of New York City during the late 1910s and early 1920s. As an editor for radical socialist publications like The Liberator and The Masses, Day was involved in several left-wing causes as well as the Silent Sentinels’ 1917 protest for women’s suffrage in front of the White House. The Eleventh Virgin is a semi-autobiographical novel told through the eyes of June Henreddy, a young radical journalist whose fictional life closely parallels Day’s own life experiences, including her eventual disillusionment with her bohemian lifestyle. Though later derided by Day as “a very bad book,” The Eleventh Virgin captures a vibrant image of New York’s radical counterculture in the early 20th century and sheds a light on the youthful misadventures of a woman who would eventually be praised by Pope Francis for her dream of “social justice and the rights of persons” during his historic address to a joint session of Congress in 2015. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
Book Synopsis INANIMATE VERSES FROM THE SILENT WORLD by : Vrinda Batra
Download or read book INANIMATE VERSES FROM THE SILENT WORLD written by Vrinda Batra and published by JEC PUBLICATION. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the moment we are born, we are connected to a multitude of people. We are also supported and comforted by various inanimate objects, such as our clothes, toys, cameras, phones, televisions, pillows and more. Throughout different phases of our lives, people come and go. However, the ones that are always there, the inanimate constants, are often neglected. This book highlights the emotions of these objects, which, though filled with feelings, cannot speak. They often end up lying in some secluded corner of our homes, sometimes being thrown away, if broken or discarded as trash. Just like with humans, if we understand their feelings, life would no longer feel lonely or stressful. If we revisit the things that once fascinated us, they would bring us nothing but pure happiness. Life would be much better if we understand the importance of these inanimate objects. The ending of the book leads towards a confession and a realisation by humans for these objects. It is rightly said that, inanimate objects are the guardians of our personal history, keeping safe the fragments of our lives that we cherish most. Even without a voice, the objects around us speak volumes about who we are and where we've been.

Book Synopsis Discourse of Silence by : Dennis Kurzon
Download or read book Discourse of Silence written by Dennis Kurzon and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1998-03-15 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals initially with the interpretation of the silent answer to a question. From a semiotic approach to the contrast between silence and speech mainly within a Greimasian framework, the discussion turns to the application of pragmatic tools such as conversational analysis and adjacency pairs to the interpretation of silence. A model is presented which attempts to explain the observer’s cognitive competence, and its limits, in being able to interpret the silent answer. A basic distinction is also made between intentional silence (the refusal to answer) and non-intentional silence (the psychological inability to answer). The interpretation of silence is extended from a theoretical viewpoint to an analysis of various discourse types. Firstly, silence in the legal world: the accused’s and the witness’s right of silence, the right of legal authorities to silence the broadcasting of direct speech. The author then analyzes the silencing of characters in a literary text (Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice), in a biblical text (Moses and his speech impediment in Exodus), in opera (Moses’ silence in Schoenberg’s opera Moses und Aron) and in the cinema. Here, after the initial discussion of Ingmar Bergman’s The Silence, focus is shifted to the generation gap and the representation of silence by song in Mike Nichols’ The Graduate.
