Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early eighteenth century, a delegation of Iroquois visited Britain, exciting the imagination of the London crowds with images of the “feathered people” and warlike “Mohocks.” Today, performing in a popular Afrodiasporic tradition, “Mardi Gras Indians” or “Black Masking Indians” take to the streets of New Orleans at carnival time and for weeks thereafter, parading in handmade “suits” resplendent with beadwork and feathers. What do these seemingly disparate strands of culture share over three centuries and several thousand miles of ocean? Interweaving theatrical, musical, and ritual performance along the Atlantic rim from the eighteenth century to the present, Cities of the Dead explores a rich continuum of cultural exchange that imaginatively reinvents, recreates, and restores history. Joseph Roach reveals how performance can revise the unwritten past, comparing patterns of remembrance and forgetting in how communities forge their identities and imagine their futures. He examines the syncretic performance traditions of Europe, Africa, and the Americas in the urban sites of London and New Orleans, through social events ranging from burials to sacrifices, auctions to parades, encompassing traditions as diverse as Haitian Voudon and British funerals. Considering processes of substitution, or surrogation, as enacted in performance, Roach demonstrates the ways in which people and cultures fill the voids left by death and departure. The twenty-fifth anniversary edition of this classic work features a new preface reflecting on the relevance of its arguments to the politics of performance and performance in contemporary politics.

Download or read book The Last Civilization written by Charles Brough and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terrorism continues with no end in sight, over-population grows ever more serious, our natural resources are being depleted and corruption runs rampant. Will these problems ever be solved? The continuing events point to an impending breakdown of our civilization. The threat of a new world-wide plague, mass starvation, and nuclear war increases each year. No solution is in sight without an understanding of social evolutionary natural selection and how it has shaped world affairs throughout both history and prehistory. Only by learning how ideology shapes society is it possible to know what must happen in order for people to be active in the transition from the old into a new society and civilization. The author covers topics such as our primate small-group social behavior, the development of the matriarchal agricultural ideological system, the ideology involved in barbarism, and the rise of the patriarchal-monogamous ideologically based societies and their civilizations. Learn why the green revolution is falling behind, the biologically-related build-up of stress, and how lagging energy supplies will affect the world. Two of the last chapters lay out the structural make-up of every successful mainstream world-view ideological system. They use that to build a facsimile of what the core of such a new and advanced system would have to be like to succeed---a perpetual lack of which would ensure that this is indeed The Last Civilization because no other can follow without it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alastair Bonnett explores extraordinary, off-grid, offbeat places including micro-nations, moving villages, secret cities, and no man's lands. Consider Sealand, an abandoned gun platform off the English coast that a British citizen claimed as his own sovereign nation, issuing passports and making his wife a princess. Or Baarle, a patchwork city of Dutch and Flemish enclaves where crossing the street can involve traversing national borders. Or Sandy Island, which appeared on maps well into 2012 despite the fact it never existed.
