This book was released on 1981 with total page 1084 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What format did I use in chronicling ten years of social and political transition, which had broad racial and class implications, objectively? Could it be done within the parameters of my experiences throughout the time involved? Was Baltimore ready for such a work? There were other questions and other doubts. Eventually they became less important. City Life offers one perspective from Baltimore on the period 1968-1978. It has been written by a native Baltimorean for Baltimoreans--and anyone else--who needs, and wants, to know something about what took place here during the 4,000--odd days that comprised the time under study. This book does not tell the complete story. No one person can achieve that. But, it is the nearest we have come thus far to providing as comprehensive a picture as possible, from one person, about a segment of the municipal past. -- Foreword.

Download or read book Song of My Soul written by Paul Evans and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-06-10 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Evans, a former Baltimore newspaperman, uses the power of poetry to present a unique look at the decency and respectability of black Americans' lives before, during, and after the Civil Rights Movement in tribute to the Harlem Renaissance. However, Mr. Evans does not stop there. Uniquely, writing as a black man, he also offers poems that express his desire to see a nation that is inclusive and fair to all Americans, not overlooking the working-class white people who have been left out of Martin Luther King's dream. The Harlem Renaissance has taken its rightful place alongside the many literary movements and eras that have comprised American Literature. Through expressive verse, Mr. Evans reflects on the simplicity of an earlier time in a black man's life such as tending a coal furnace, talking to the ice cream man, or in "A Colored Boy at the Ocean" when he writes, Ocean, ocean carry me away/I'm a little colored boy here at play/I care not where your waves might take me to go/As long as getting there is mighty awfully slow. He honors the spirited artists, musicians, and writers who created magic during a dazzling period in American culture. As the centennial of the Harlem Renaissance approaches in 2019, Mr. Evans encourages a revisiting to this special time, resulting in a new appreciation of the importance of the work of the renaissance's writers and poets, in particular, whose work urged America to be what it says it is.

Book Synopsis The City in Time and Space by : Aidan Southall
Download or read book The City in Time and Space written by Aidan Southall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious book treats urbanisation and urbanism all over the world, and from the earliest times to the present. Aidan Southall, a pioneer in the study of African cities, discusses the urban centres of ancient Sumeria, Greece and Rome, as well as medieval European cities, Chinese, Japanese, Islamic and Indic cities, colonial cities, and the great metropolises of the twentieth century. Drawing on this historical and comparative perspective, he offers a fresh analysis of world urbanisation in the contemporary period of globalisation. The study emphasises the enduring paradox of the city, which juxtaposes splendid cultural productions with the poverty and deprivation of the majority.
