Book excerpt: "Vor seinem Colt hatte selbst der Teufel Respekt!" (Mark Twain) Der Lieblingssatz des berühmten US Marshals: "Abenteuer? Ich habe sie nie gesucht. Weiß der Teufel wie es kam, dass sie immer dort waren, wohin ich ritt." Diese Romane müssen Sie als Western-Fan einfach lesen! Richter O'Neil stützte sich mit beiden Händen auf die schwere Tischplatte auf und schüttelte den Kopf. »Ich kann nicht verstehen, daß er nicht hereingekommen ist.« Der weißhaarige Herr hob den Kopf und blickte auf die junge Frau, die ihm gegenüber am Fenster lehnte. Sie mochte etwa vierundzwanzig Jahre alt sein, war hochgewachsen, hatte flachsblondes Haar und aquamarinfarbene Augen. Um ihren vollen Mund spielte ein Lächeln. »Vater, du mußt das doch verstehen«, sagte Jenny O'Neil. »Der Marshal hat doch andere Dinge zu tun, als uns zu besuchen. Wie du gehört hast, hat er Capucine gestellt. Was das bedeutet, solltest du besser wissen als jeder andere.« »Natürlich weiß ich das, Kind. Es geht ja auch nicht darum. Ich finde nur, er hätte wenigstens einmal hereinschauen können. Sein Vater und ich haben uns ein Menschenalter gekannt und gut verstanden. Und der junge Wyatt hat uns früher in Denver besucht und auch oben in Quincy. Daß er sich nun gar nicht hat sehen lassen, begreife ich einfach nicht. Schließlich war er jetzt doch zweimal hier.« Jenny lächelte immer noch und blickte den Vater ein wenig mitleidig an. »Wyatt Earp ist in erster Linie ein Gesetzesmann, Vater. Außerdem bin ich überzeugt, daß er hergekommen wäre, wenn er auch nur eine Viertelstunde hätte erübrigen können.« O'Neil griff nach dem Zinnbecher, in dem er seine Virginiazigarren stehen hatte, zog eine heraus und zündete sie an. Dünner bläulicher Rauch kräuselte sich in dem kleinen Zimmer, das zur Straße hinaus lag. Jenny wandte den Kopf und blickte hinaus. Sie dachte an das, was sie in der vergangenen

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Made to be Seen brings together leading scholars of visual anthropology to examine the historical development of this multifaceted and growing field. Expanding the definition of visual anthropology beyond more limited notions, the contributors to Made to be Seen reflect on the role of the visual in all areas of life. Different essays critically examine a range of topics: art, dress and body adornment, photography, the built environment, digital forms of visual anthropology, indigenous media, the body as a cultural phenomenon, the relationship between experimental and ethnographic film, and more. The first attempt to present a comprehensive overview of the many aspects of an anthropological approach to the study of visual and pictorial culture, Made to be Seen will be the standard reference on the subject for years to come. Students and scholars in anthropology, sociology, visual studies, and cultural studies will greatly benefit from this pioneering look at the way the visual is inextricably threaded through most, if not all, areas of human activity.

Download or read book Treehugger written by Shamus Flaherty and published by Author House. This book was released on 2010-01-10 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arborist Matthew Largess began his forestry career by killing giant redwoods as part of an experimental helicopter operation in the Oregon wilderness. When he wasn't busy killing trees he could be found partying on Ken Kesey's bus, sawing through a crowded bar with his chainsaw in a drug and alcohol-induced rage, or hopelessly attempting to quench his sex addiction with some questionable act with a random woman. Treehugger is the story of how he turned his life around to become one of the leading national spokesmen for the preservation of trees and old-growth forests in America. It is the story of Oakland Forest in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, which was slated to be clear-cut to make way for condominiums until Largess intervenes. While all evidence suggests that the forest is a lost cause, Largess hangs on to a shred of hope provided by reclusive futurist Crystal Powers. Powers tells him that he is the "voice of the forest," that angels will rise from the forest floor to thank him when he is done saving the forest, and that this is only the first forest he will save in a line of many worldwide. Author Shamus Flaherty narrates the ride at Largess' side as an employee of his tree-trimming business. Flaherty flashes back into the wildness of Largess' past and looks on skeptically in the present as Largess battles his inner demons and risks his livelihood in an effort to save the forest. Treehugger is a story of recovery, of comedy, of committment in the face of temptation, of magic in a world that doesn't believe, and of how little things can make a difference when it comes to saving our environment.
Book Synopsis Mass Media and the Shaping of American Feminism, 1963-1975 by : Patricia Bradley
Download or read book Mass Media and the Shaping of American Feminism, 1963-1975 written by Patricia Bradley and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 1963 with the publication of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique and reaching a high pitch ten years later with the televised mega-event of the “Battle of the Sexes”—the tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs—the mass media were intimately involved with both the distribution and the understanding of the feminist message. This mass media promotion of the feminist profile, however, proved to be a double-edged sword, according to Patricia Bradley, author of Mass Media and the Shaping of American Feminism, 1963-1975. Although millions of women learned about feminism by way of the mass media, detrimental stereotypes emerged overnight. Often the events mounted by feminists to catch the media eye crystalized the negative image. All feminists soon came to be portrayed in the popular culture as “bra burners” and “strident women.” Such depictions not only demeaned the achievements of their movement but also limited discussion of feminism to those subjects the media considered worthy, primarily equal pay for equal work. Bradley's book examines the media traditions that served to curtail understandings of feminism. Journalists, following the craft formulas of their trade, equated feminism with the bizarre and the unusual. Even women journalists could not overcome the rules of “What Makes News.” By the time Billie Jean King confronted Bobby Riggs on the tennis court, feminism had become a commodity to be shaped to attract audiences. Finally, in mass media's pursuit of the new, counter-feminist messages came to replace feminism on the news agenda and helped set in place the conservative revolution of the 1980s. Bradley offers insight into how mass media constructs images and why such images have the kind of ongoing strength that discourages young women of today from calling themselves “feminist.” The author also asks how public issues are to be raised when those who ask the questions are negatively defined before the issues can even be discussed. Mass Media and the Shaping of American Feminism, 1963-1975 examines the media's role in creating the images of feminism that continue today. And it poses the dilemma of a call for systematic change in a mass media industry that does not have a place for systematic change in its agenda.
