Download or read book Dirty Words written by Robin E. Jensen and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2010-12-03 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Words: The Rhetoric of Public Sex Education, 1870-1924, details the approaches and outcomes of sex-education initiatives in the Progressive Era. In analyzing the rhetorical strategies of sex education advocates, Robin E. Jensen engages with rich sources such as lectures, books, movies, and posters that were often shaped by female health advocates and instructors. She offers a revised narrative that demonstrates how women were both leaders and innovators in early U.S. sex-education movements, striving to provide education to underserved populations of women, minorities, and the working class. Investigating the communicative and rhetorical practices surrounding the emergence of public sex education in the United States, Jensen shows how women in particular struggled for a platform to create and circulate arguments concerning this controversial issue. The book also provides insight into overlooked discourses about public sex education by analyzing a previously understudied campaign targeted at African American men in the 1920s, offering theoretical categorizations of discursive strategies that citizens have used to discuss sex education over time, and laying out implications for health communicators and sexual educators in the present day.

Book Synopsis Nine Nasty Words by : John McWhorter
Download or read book Nine Nasty Words written by John McWhorter and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller now in paperback. One of the preeminent linguists of our time examines the realms of language that are considered shocking and taboo in order to understand what imbues curse words with such power--and why we love them so much. Profanity has always been a deliciously vibrant part of our lexicon, an integral part of being human. In fact, our ability to curse comes from a different part of the brain than other parts of speech--the urgency with which we say "f&*k!" is instead related to the instinct that tells us to flee from danger. Language evolves with time, and so does what we consider profane or unspeakable. Nine Nasty Words is a rollicking examination of profanity, explored from every angle: historical, sociological, political, linguistic. In a particularly coarse moment, when the public discourse is shaped in part by once-shocking words, nothing could be timelier.

Download or read book Dirty Words written by Hannah Bradby and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did dinosaurs contribute to global warming? What is rubbish theory and what indeed is rubbish? And how did the whale become a cuddly toy? And why did we decide to saturate our land and food with pesticides? Dirty Words examines all of these questions and also includes a study of pollution in fiction, from the fogs of Dickens to the smog of Chandler, advice on how to be an environmental troublemaker, and a suggestion of our choice of futures: the world as an icebox or a greenhouse.

Book Synopsis Dirty Words in Deadwood by : Melody Graulich
Download or read book Dirty Words in Deadwood written by Melody Graulich and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Words in "Deadwood" showcases literary analyses of the Deadwood television series by leading western American literary critics. Whereas previous reaction to the series has largely addressed the question of historical accuracy rather than intertextuality or literary complexity, Melody Graulich and Nicolas S. Witschi's edited volume brings a much-needed perspective to Deadwood's representation of the frontier West. As Graulich observes in her introduction: "With its emotional coherence, compelling characterizations, compressed structural brilliance, moral ambiguity, language experiments, interpretation of the past, relevance to the present, and engagement with its literary forebears, Deadwood is an aesthetic triumph as historical fiction and, like much great literature, makes a case for the humanistic value of storytelling." From previously unpublished interviews with series creator David Milch to explorations of sexuality, disability, cinematic technique, and western narrative, this collection focuses on Deadwood as a series ultimately about the imagination, as a verbal and visual construct, and as a literary masterpiece that richly rewards close analysis and interpretation.
Book Synopsis Feedback (and Other Dirty Words) by : M. Tamra Chandler
Download or read book Feedback (and Other Dirty Words) written by M. Tamra Chandler and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-18 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical and irreverent guide to taking the sting out of feedback and reclaiming it as a motivating, empowering experience for everyone involved. Feedback: the mere mention of the word can make our blood pressure rise and our defenses go up. For many of us, it’s a dirty word that we associate with bias, politics, resentment, and self-doubt. However, if we take a step back and think about its true intent, we realize that feedback needn’t be a bad thing. After all, understanding how others experience us provides valuable opportunities to learn and grow. Authors M. Tamra Chandler and Laura Grealish explain how feedback got such a bad rap and how to recognize and minimize the negative physical and emotional responses that can erode trust and shut down communication. They offer a new and more ambitious definition of feedback, explore the roles we each play as Seeker, Extender, and Receiver, and introduce the three Fs of making feedback focused, fair, and frequent. You’ll also find valuable exercises and strategies, along with real-world examples that illustrate how you can put these ideas into action and join in the movement to fix feedback, once and for all. When it’s done right, feedback has been proven to be the most effective means of improving communication and performance for you and your organization. It’s too important to give up, and with Chandler and Grealish’s help, you’ll be able to use it deftly, equitably, and effectively. “Feedback (and other Dirty Words) cuts straight to the chase on what you need to do to revolutionize feedback in your organization. If we all approached feedback in this way, business (and the world at large!) would indeed be a better place.” —Kathy O'Driscoll, vice president of People, Snowflake Computing Inc. “Like it or probably not, people don't grow without feedback. Can you deliver feedback without closing people down? Chandler and Grealish give the tools and methods for making feedback feel good. Not only will Feedback (and Other Dirty Words) help you with your next performance conversation, it can transform your company culture to be more agile and enjoyable.” —Marcia Reynolds, PsyD, past president, International Coach Federation, and author of The Discomfort Zone

Download or read book Dirty Words written by Natalie Harkin and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Words, an A to Z index of poetry, is a restless offering; an unfolding hat may begin on any page. This to-ing and fro-ing of observation is an un-binding of sorts; a mournful rage with beauty and deep love between the lines to disrupt and transcend the pain and disdain. This book is a reminder that what is (re)produced and (re)resented for general consumption, by institutions of power, is often steeped in myth-making and persistent colonial ideology. This small contemplation on nation and history is informed by blood-memory and an uncanny knowing beyond what we are officially told; a reminder of multiple lived-histories, f other ways of knowing and being in his world. Our elders and ancestors fought for the right to exist and speak up into the future - there are traces and signs, and there was always resistance. Dirty Words is a 'note-to-self' to speak up, to unsettle and to be brave; to not be silent when another voice would be easier or expected. There is still work to be done, and difficult conversations to have. Hidden stories can be honoured, exposed and shared, and there is always poetry.

Book Synopsis The Most Dangerous Book by : Kevin Birmingham
Download or read book The Most Dangerous Book written by Kevin Birmingham and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-05-26 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recipient of the 2015 PEN New England Award for Nonfiction “The arrival of a significant young nonfiction writer . . . A measured yet bravura performance.” —Dwight Garner, The New York Times James Joyce’s big blue book, Ulysses, ushered in the modernist era and changed the novel for all time. But the genius of Ulysses was also its danger: it omitted absolutely nothing. Joyce, along with some of the most important publishers and writers of his era, had to fight for years to win the freedom to publish it. The Most Dangerous Book tells the remarkable story surrounding Ulysses, from the first stirrings of Joyce’s inspiration in 1904 to the book’s landmark federal obscenity trial in 1933. Written for ardent Joyceans as well as novices who want to get to the heart of the greatest novel of the twentieth century, The Most Dangerous Book is a gripping examination of how the world came to say Yes to Ulysses.
Book Synopsis Great Little Book of Dirty Spanish Words by : John C. Rigdon
Download or read book Great Little Book of Dirty Spanish Words written by John C. Rigdon and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So, I had 5 years of Spanish in High School and College, only to learn that I really couldn't understand most of what I heard. It was only when I was introduced to the Spanish cuss words that I realized that there was more to Spanish expletives than "Ah Caramba!" From a strictly academic perspective this book will fill you in on the rich and varied vocabulary of Spanish vulgarities, but it should also help you to converse more effectively with your Hispanic friends. For those words and phrases which are only understood in a cultural context, we explain their usage and include sample sentences. As anyone who speaks more than one language knows, words don't always translate precisely. In Spanish that's particularly true of curse words. Many Spanish swear words and insults cover similar territory to their English counterparts. English speakers, on the other hand, might have a hard time understanding. Swear words. It's an art and science that can only be perfected with experience.
Download or read book Dirty Word written by Jim Parker Walker and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said he came to heal the sick, not the well. And yet some churches have a feeling about them that is vaguely antiseptic, where there seems to be an unspoken pressure to censor any unpleasantness. Jim Walker wanted to build a church that was honest, that lived out its mission down in the muck of life where Jesus calls us to get our hands dirty. In the rough and often unpleasant neighborhoods of the South Side of Pittsburgh, Jim began finding people who wanted to live in a new way--passionate, committed, and totally devoted to God. The worshiping community they built together, now known as Hot Metal Bridge Church, is a place of harsh honesty and tender caring, of deep pain and great joy. In Dirty Word you''ll meet a street person named Fetus who has an encounter with Jesus at the communion table that leads him to change his name to Feed Us. You''ll visit the weekly Bible Fight Club where guys with plenty of tattoos take their Bible study very seriously, and find a new perspective on how the kingdom of God really looks, sounds and smells. Be forewarned: Some of the stories and descriptions in Dirty Word might offend you, or run afoul of your expectations of the clergy. But if you are equally offended by watered-down theology and pallid discipleship, Dirty Word offers a bracing challenge and a fresh evocation of hope. Dirty Word is a raw, uncensored look at an unapologetic way of being the church. From chapter 8 One Sunday, after worship Amanda and Eric approached me. Amanda is a twenty something with a mix of blond and black and red hair. Eric has the black and blue tint to his hair that I''ve always wanted and have never had the nerve to get. Both Eric and Amanda are eccentric and artsy, love old monster movies and rock n roll. "Pastor Jim", Amanda started, "We want to get involved in a Bible study. Is this church going to have any Bible studies?" I quickly got defensive. That''s what we pastors do when it is insinuated that we''re not providing the right products. "We already have Bible studies going on right now," I replied, "We have a study on Monday night, a study about Ephesians on Wednesday, and a study on Romans on Saturday nights at the coffee shop." Eric looked at me, politely, but pained, and said to me very gently and kindly "Yeah, we went to those...." "It''s just not what we''re looking for, Pastor Jim", Amanda said. "Well, what is it you''re looking for? Maybe we can get something new going." That''s when Amanda got bold. I braced myself. "To be honest, Pastor Jim, I don''t like those other studies because it''s just a bunch of people sitting around nodding at one other. I mean, everyone is just agreeing with each other. I feel like we''re being brain-washed or something." "What are you suggesting?" I replied, kind of confused. "I don''t know. We want to be part of a Bible study where no one agrees." "No one agrees?" "Sure, why don''t we have a study where everyone comes and we fight?" When we started Bible Fight Club, the purpose wasn''t, and still isn''t, discipleship. The club isn''t meant to be a place where we grow in our faith, per se. The point to the gathering is not to worship, and it''s not to study scripture and it''s not to fellowship. The point to Bible Fight Club is to fight. It is a time for debate, a time for wrestling, and for doubting and questioning the things that we sometimes we hold as gospel. Sometimes this even means the Gospel. For our church it has been a place where atheists, agnostics, believers, ''non-believers'', and believers of other faiths can come and toss in their two cents. To make sure that the argument is valued and that people are valued as well, we made the following rules: Bible Fight Club Rules 1. Respect: we love and respect each other, but not necessarily each other''s opinions. We respect the argument by being good listeners. 2. Say Anything: no judging and no holding grudges. The tattoo shop basement is a safe place where anything can be said. 3. Fight: all those in attendance must participate. No one is allowed to come and observe in silence. (Observers and silent onlookers skew the argument by inadvertently becoming a kind of jury that people try to convince.) 4. Get to the point: no speeches. "Make your point and shut up"--so others can speak. 5. Honor the Argument: phrases like ''Well, it''s all just a mystery'' or ''we''ll never know the answer, so why bother arguing'' do not honor the argument. Take a side and fight, no matter how ''mysterious'' you think the subject is. 6. Admit when you''ve been hit: At the end of the evening we take time to talk about the argument. Everyone must share something that was said that made them think. Sometimes this might mean having some humility. But that''s the point.
