Book Synopsis The Politics of Cultural Knowledge by : Njoki Wane
Download or read book The Politics of Cultural Knowledge written by Njoki Wane and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-25 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent and implementation of European colonialism have disrupted innumerable epistemological geographies around the globe. Countless cultural ways of knowing and local educational practices have in some way been displaced and dislocated within the universalizing project of the Euro-Colonial Empire. This book revisits the colonial relations of culture and education, questions various embedded imperial procedures and extricates the strategic offerings of local ways of knowing which resisted colonial imposition. The contributors of this collection are concerned with the ways in which colonial education forms the governing edict for local peoples. In The Politics of Cultural Knowledge, the authors offer an alternative reading of conventional discussions of culture and what counts as knowledge concerning race, class, gender, sexuality, identity, and difference in the context of the Diaspora.

Book Synopsis The Paradox War Omnibus by : CJ Moseley
Download or read book The Paradox War Omnibus written by CJ Moseley and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Desi, a twenty-something science graduate, can't get to sleep one night, the last thing she expected was for the TV to explode, for her to get abducted by aliens, or to get drawn into a temporal war that, somehow, is probably her fault. During her adventures we also follow the progress of two other, combatants also drawn into this war: One is Garner a half-fey, half-human wizard working for a mad machine-god, and the other is a member of a spiritually rich species of shape-shifting travellers, that call themselves the Bulmäs, but that Desi knows by a host of other names. We follow our three adventurers stories as they weave their way through Time and Space, through alternate histories, into the realms of the inner-world of Faery and the outer abyss, and finally right back to the beginning, fighting a war that holds the fate of Universes in the balance. Combining Humour, Science-Fiction, Fantasy, Time-Travel, Pop-culture, and Mythology into a spell-binding roller-coaster.

Book Synopsis Making the Best of It by : Sarah Glassford
Download or read book Making the Best of It written by Sarah Glassford and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many women who lived through the Second World War believed it heralded new status and opportunities, but scholars have argued that very little changed. How can these interpretations be reconciled? Making the Best of It examines the ways in which gender and other identities intersected to shape the experiences of female Canadians and Newfoundlanders during the war. The contributors to this thoughtful collection consider mainstream and minority populations, girls and women, and different parts of Canada and Newfoundland. They reassess topics such as women in the military and in munitions factories, and tackle entirely new subjects such as wartime girlhood in Quebec. Collectively, these essays broaden the scope of what we know about the changes the war wrought in the lives of Canadian women and girls, and address wider debates about memory, historiography, and feminism.
Book Synopsis The Hebrew Orient by : Jessica L. Carr
Download or read book The Hebrew Orient written by Jessica L. Carr and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the decades before the establishment of the State of Israel, striking images of Palestine circulated widely among Jewish Americans. These images visualized "the Orient" for American viewers, creating the possibility for Jewish Americans to understand themselves through imagining "Oriental" counterparts. In The Hebrew Orient, Jessica L. Carr shows how images of the Holy Land made Jewish Americans feel at home in the United States by imagining "the Orient" as heritage. Carr's analyses of periodicals from Hadassah and the Zionist Organization of America, art calendars from the National Federation of Temple Sisterhoods, the Jewish Encyclopedia, and the Jewish exhibit at the 1933 World's Fair are richly illustrated. What emerges is a new understanding of the place of Orientalism in American Zionism. Creating a narrative about their origins, Jewish Americans looked east to understand themselves as Westerners.
Download or read book Future written by Lawrence R. Samuel and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-12-03 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of our attitudes toward the possibilities of tomorrow:“A fascinating trek through American future visions from the 1920s to the present.” —Lori C. Walters, Ph.D., University of Central Florida The future is not a fixed idea but a highly variable one that reflects the values of those who are imagining it. By studying the ways that visionaries imagined the future—particularly that of America—in the past century, much can be learned about the cultural dynamics of the times. In this social history, Lawrence R. Samuel examines the future visions of intellectuals, artists, scientists, businesspeople, and others to tell a chronological story about the history of the future in the past century. He defines six separate eras of future narratives from 1920 to the present day, and argues that the milestones reached during these years—especially related to air and space travel, atomic and nuclear weapons, the women’s and civil rights movements, and the advent of biological and genetic engineering—sparked the possibilities of tomorrow in the public’s imagination, and helped make the twentieth century the first century to be significantly more about the future than the past. The idea of the future grew both in volume and importance as it rode the technological wave into the new millennium, and the author tracks the process by which most people, to some degree, have now become futurists as the need to anticipate tomorrow accelerates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the specific concerns of Indigenous women be addressed by mainstream feminism?

Book Synopsis Stories Are Weapons: Psychological Warfare and the American Mind by : Annalee Newitz
Download or read book Stories Are Weapons: Psychological Warfare and the American Mind written by Annalee Newitz and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Publishers Weekly's Top 10 Politics/Current Events books of Spring 2024 A sharp and timely exploration of the dark art of manipulation through weaponized storytelling, from the best-selling author of Four Lost Cities. In Stories Are Weapons, best-selling author Annalee Newitz traces the way disinformation, propaganda, and violent threats—the essential tool kit for psychological warfare—have evolved from military weapons deployed against foreign adversaries into tools in domestic culture wars. Newitz delves into America’s deep-rooted history with psychological operations, beginning with Benjamin Franklin’s Revolutionary War–era fake newspaper and nineteenth-century wars on Indigenous nations, and reaching its apotheosis with the Cold War and twenty-first-century influence campaigns online. America’s secret weapon has long been coercive storytelling. And there’s a reason for that: operatives who shaped modern psychological warfare drew on their experiences as science fiction writers and in the advertising industry. Now, through a weapons-transfer program long unacknowledged, psyops have found their way into the hands of culture warriors, transforming democratic debates into toxic wars over American identity. Newitz zeroes in on conflicts over race and intelligence, school board fights over LGBT students, and campaigns against feminist viewpoints, revealing how, in each case, specific groups of Americans are singled out and treated as enemies of the state. Crucially, Newitz delivers a powerful counternarrative, speaking with the researchers and activists who are outlining a pathway to achieving psychological disarmament and cultural peace. Incisive and essential, Stories are Weapons reveals how our minds have been turned into blood-soaked battlegrounds—and how we can put down our weapons to build something better.
Book Synopsis The B. S. Johnson - Zulfikar Ghose Correspondence by : Vanessa Guignery
Download or read book The B. S. Johnson - Zulfikar Ghose Correspondence written by Vanessa Guignery and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1959 to 1973, the writers B. S. Johnson and Zulfikar Ghose regularly wrote letters to each other in which they discussed their own work and literary preoccupations. They exchanged early drafts of poems, short stories, plays and novels, and their correspondence contains detailed comments and extended analyses of these texts, as well as illuminating reflections on literature, criticism, poetics and aesthetics. Though much of the correspondence is an extended literary discussion, it also contains moments of personal revelation, jokes and anecdotes so that the letters, with their surprising asides, are enjoyable to read, even as they inform with their biographical and intellectual content. The two authors also frequently refer to the university poetry journals and literary magazines they contributed to or edited, and they write about the poetry meetings they attended and the writers they met or read. Their involvement in literary groups and their dealings with publishers, editors and agents are indicative of the publishing mechanisms of the time. This correspondence thus not only provides insight into the work of both B. S. Johnson and Zulfikar Ghose, but also conjures up a comprehensive picture of the London literary world of the 1960s.
