Book Synopsis Caught between Worlds by : Joe Snader
Download or read book Caught between Worlds written by Joe Snader and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The captivity narrative has always been a literary genre associated with America. Joe Snader argues, however, that captivity narratives emerged much earlier in Britain, coinciding with European colonial expansion, the development of anthropology, and the rise of liberal political thought. Stories of Europeans held captive in the Middle East, America, Africa, and Southeast Asia appeared in the British press from the late sixteenth through the late eighteenth centuries, and captivity narratives were frequently featured during the early development of the novel. Until the mid-eighteenth century, British examples of the genre outpaced their American cousins in length, frequency of publication, attention to anthropological detail, and subjective complexity. Using both new and canonical texts, Snader shows that foreign captivity was a favorite topic in eighteenth-century Britain. An adaptable and expansive genre, these narratives used set plots and stereotypes originating in Mediterranean power struggles and relocated in a variety of settings, particularly eastern lands. The narratives' rhetorical strategies and cultural assumptions often grew out of centuries of religious strife and coincided with Europe's early modern military ascendancy. Caught Between Worlds presents a broad, rich, and flexible definition of the captivity narrative, placing the American strain in its proper place within the tradition as a whole. Snader, having assembled the first bibliography of British captivity narratives, analyzes both factual texts and a large body of fictional works, revealing the ways they helped define British identity and challenged Britons to rethink the place of their nation in the larger world.

Book Synopsis Caught Between Heaven & Earth by : Nancy Van Alphen
Download or read book Caught Between Heaven & Earth written by Nancy Van Alphen and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Incredible True Story of Awakening In Caught Between Heaven & Earth, Nancy van Alphen takes us on her unexpected spiritual journey that changed her from agnostic to believer. A humorous peak into her childhood, during which she had but a mere smattering of religion, paints the picture of an ordinary girl living an ordinary life. As a teen she concluded God was unprovable and never looked back—until God decided He wasn't content being a mere possibility. Alone one night, Nancy happened upon a video of a young man given little time to live. Heartfelt compassion morphed into anger as she raised her fists and railed about suffering to a God in whom she didn't really believe. To her utter amazement, God responded. Thus begins her journey in which she traverses a surreal chasm between doubt and belief, caught between Heaven and Earth, as she struggles to understand messages she was given about suffering, reincarnation—including her own—and humanity's true identity. With a sprinkling of light-hearted family anecdotes, Nancy recalls her progressively more profound experiences within the context of earthly reality. Interactions with God, Jesus and angels chip away at her agnosticism, until one day something so amazing happens it obliterates all traces of doubt. Between scenes, Nancy looks at various religious traditions and present day near-death experiences, uncovering information supporting what she was told by Divine source, helping her round out her new picture of reality. Her conclusion presents four habits of LOVE by which to live to foster evolution of one’s soul, as well as the spiritual evolution of humanity. Praise for Caught Between Heaven & Earth: "I am proud of Nancy for her courage in sharing her story with us that we might find light in it! It is valuable that she is open and sharing of her reproachment to God. Nancy went in as an agnostic and exited as a full-on believer. Kudos to Nancy for her persistence in continuing the work, in having courage and resilience, and in doing it in a world too often filled with darkness. What a lesson for the rest of us!" - Dr. Doris Eliana Cohen, PhD Repetition and Dreaming on Both Sides of the Brain "Nancy van Alphen takes you by the hand and ushers you into her mind and then into her heart where you experience her intimate and breathtaking journey from agnosticism to spirituality. Her authentic report begins with angels at her door. That day marked the beginning of her transformation which she describes in honest detail. Hers is a journey similar in its mystical nature to that which I and countless others have experienced in this time of rising awareness. The truths that unfold to Nancy in surprising, even astonishing ways will resonate in the heart of experiencers and non-experiencers alike." - Emily Rodavich Mystical Interludes and Mystical Interludes II
Book Synopsis Caught Between Two Spiritual Worlds by : Reverend Harold A. Vieux
Download or read book Caught Between Two Spiritual Worlds written by Reverend Harold A. Vieux and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true story, a series of events that transpired in my life which I deemed necessary to expose and by so doing alert others to vigilance. Naturally, the subject matter is sensitive both for me and all parties involved. I can never discount the relevance of demons, deny their reality and their harassing ways. If and when I was to do so, I would magnify the role of human agents. Frequently, even mature Christians underestimate the magnitude of the spiritual warfare enlisted in from the time of the new birth. We are in a severe struggle, persistently and subtly driven by powerful, spiritual opposing forces beyond our comprehension. Often we rely on human resources and fail to use the spiritual source available to us through the power of the Holy Spirit. I fell in the fourth generation of my maternal fore-parents lineage to suffer unnecessary heartbreaking consequences because of spiritual ignorance. Since I came to see the light of Jesus Christ, I made up my mind to loose all yokes of bondage over my generation and the ones to come after me should Christ tarry. I now know demonic spirits are to be kept afar and never be trusted. Even though at times through subtlety we may be deceived to think that certain spirits work for the good and well-being of a person, such deception should be seen as a trap, a means of securing the individual into a mesh. Sooner or later, such individual will be caught unaware and conquered. It should never be a surprise how the Devil, the starch enemy of the saints, will use anyone, foe and often those who would be considered ally, to win a person over to cause him to fall. Read on and enjoy this treat to your spiritual health!
Book Synopsis Caught between Roosevelt and Stalin by : Dennis J. Dunn
Download or read book Caught between Roosevelt and Stalin written by Dennis J. Dunn and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 16, 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Soviet Commissar of Foreign Affairs Maxim Litvinov signed an agreement establishing diplomatic ties between the United States and the Soviet Union. Two days later Roosevelt named the first of five ambassadors he would place in Moscow between 1933 and 1945. Caught between Roosevelt and Stalin tells the dramatic and important story of these ambassadors and their often contentious relationships with the two most powerful men in the world. More than fifty years after his death, Roosevelt's foreign policy, especially regarding the Soviet Union, remains a subject of intense debate. Dennis Dunn offers an ambitious new appraisal of the apparent confusion and contradiction in Roosevelt's policy one moment publicizing the four freedoms and the Atlantic Charter and the next moment giving tacit approval to Stalin's control of parts of Eastern Europe and northeast Asia. Dunn argues that "Rooseveltism," the president's belief that the Soviet Union and the United States were both developing into modern social democracies, blinded Roosevelt to the true nature of Stalin's brutal dictatorship despite repeated warnings from his ambassadors in Moscow. Focusing on the ambassadors themselves, William C. Bullitt, Joseph E. Davies, Laurence A. Steinhardt, William C. Standley, and W. Averell Harriman, Dunn details their bruising arguments with Roosevelt over the president's repeated concessions to Stalin. Using information uncovered during extensive research in the Soviet archives, Dunn reveals much about Stalin's policy toward the United States and demonstrates that in ignoring his ambassadors' good advice, Roosevelt appeased the Soviet leader unnecessarily. Sure to generate new discussion concerning the origins of the Cold War, this controversial assessment of Roosevelt's failed Soviet policy will be read for years to come.
Book Synopsis Caught Between Two Guns by : C. Arthur Ellis Jr. PhD
Download or read book Caught Between Two Guns written by C. Arthur Ellis Jr. PhD and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a hot Florida summer day in August, 1952, Ruby McCollum, the wealthy African-American wife of Suwannee County’s Bolita King, murdered Dr. C. LeRoy Adams, a beloved white physician and recently elected state senator. The sensational murder trial was widely covered in newspapers ranging from the New York Times to The Times in London, and was the first of its kind since 1855. Now the story of a forbidden interracial love affair gone wrong is recounted by an author who was a neighbor to the McCollum family and delivered by Dr. Adams. Dr. Ellis’ odyssey to discover the truth behind the murder began with locating the lost transcript of the trial—which was both manually transcribed and wire recorded. He then published an annotated copy to discredit statements by some scholars that McCollum was not allowed to testify in her own defense. In the Afterword of this book, Ellis now addresses McCollum’s most telling statements to her attorneys— “I was caught between two guns,” and “I don’t know whether I did right or whether I did wrong”—and proposes an intriguing moral alternative to societally defined concepts of “right” and “wrong” for African-Americans who lived in the Jim Crow South.

Jen's estranged father knew exactly where she was- but he was determined to keep Darlene and his own secrets well hidden. Only one other person-Jen-knew her father's dark and destructive nature. Since she was a child, she'd experienced his cruelty firsthand when her father tried to break her down, but his ruthlessness had the opposite effect: she blossomed into the type of strong woman he hated. As an adult, Jen flourished when she left her parental home. But her need to protect her fragile mother from her father's tyranny kept Jen returning to harm's way. With no one willing to help, would Jen's dogged loyalty to her mother cost both women their mental health? Or would Jen finally submit to her father's will and end her desperate search before discovering her mother's true fate?

This book was released on 2001-03-02 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Replete with practical advice for anyone considering a career in federal, state, or local government, Caught between the Dog and the Fireplug, or How to Survive Public Service conveys what life is really like in a public service job. The book is written as a series of lively, entertaining letters of advice from a sympathetic uncle to a niece or nephew embarking on a government career. Kenneth Ashworth draws on more than forty years of public sector experience to provide advice on the daily challenges that future public servants can expect to face: working with politicians, bureaucracy, and the press; dealing with unpleasant and difficult people; leading supervisors as well as subordinates; and maintaining high ethical standards. Ashworth relates anecdotes from his jobs in Texas, California, and Washington, D.C., that illustrate with humor and wit fundamental concepts of public administration. Be prepared, says Ashworth, to encounter all sorts of unexpected situations, from the hostile to the bizarre, from the intimidating to the outrageous. He shows that in the confrontational world of public policymaking and program implementation, a successful career demands disciplined, informed thought, intellectual and personal growth, and broad reading. He demonstrates how, despite the inevitable inefficiencies of a democratic society, those working to shape policy in large organizations can nonetheless effect significant change-and even have fun along the way. The book will interest students and teachers of public administration, public affairs, policy development, leadership, or higher education administration. Ashworth's advice will also appeal to anyone who has ever been caught in a tight spot while working in government service.

Book Synopsis Caught Between Words by : Jorge E. Garnica-Watson
Download or read book Caught Between Words written by Jorge E. Garnica-Watson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-07 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Caught Between Words" is a serious attempt to uncover some key words within the author and their meanings, which have been a recurring leitmotif in his life. "Caught Between Words" is also an emotional stance portrayed with words and the role they have played out in making him what he is today. The book is a rosary of words, alphabetically arranged, sometimes subtly funny, other times serene, disturbing, soul-searching, and existential, but most of all, a serious innermost debate with himself, others, and the world. Also, it is an effort to reorder his world in such a way that that personal reordering might elicit some kind of alignment in itself, with the meanings he gives to it.
Book Synopsis Caught between the Lines by : Carlos Riobó
Download or read book Caught between the Lines written by Carlos Riobó and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caught between the Lines examines how the figure of the captive and the notion of borders have been used in Argentine literature and painting to reflect competing notions of national identity from the nineteenth to the twenty-first centuries. Challenging the conventional approach to the nineteenth-century trope of “civilization versus barbary,” which was intended to criticize the social and ethnic divisions within Argentina in order to create a homogenous society, Carlos Riobó traces the various versions of colonial captivity legends. He argues convincingly that the historical conditions of the colonial period created an ethnic hybridity—a mestizo or culturally mixed identity—that went against the state compulsion for a racially pure identity. This mestizaje was signified not only in Argentina’s literature but also in its art, and Riobó thus analyzes colonial paintings as well as texts. Caught between the Lines focuses on borders and mestizaje (both biological and cultural) as they relate to captives: specifically, how captives have been used to create a national image of Argentina that relies on a logic of separation to justify concepts of national purity and to deny transculturation.
Book Synopsis Caught in the Middle by : Richard C. Longworth
Download or read book Caught in the Middle written by Richard C. Longworth and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-09 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Midwest has always been the heart of America-both its economic bellwether and the repository of its national identity. Now, in a new, globalized age, the Midwest is challenged as never before. With an influx of immigrant workers and an outpouring of manufacturing jobs, the region that defines the American self-the Lake Wobegon image of solid, hardworking farmers and factory hands-is changing at breakneck speed. As factory farms and global forces displace old ways of life, the United States is being transformed literally from the inside out. In Caught in the Middle, longtime Chicago Tribune reporter Richard C. Longworth explores the new reality of life in today's heartland and reveals what these changes mean for the region-and the country. Ranging from the manufacturing collapse that has crippled the Midwest to the biofuels revolution that may save it, and from the school districts struggling with new migrants to the Iowa meatpacking town that can't survive without them, Longworth addresses what's right and what's wrong in the region, and offers a prescription for how it must change-politically as well as economically-if it is to survive and prosper.
