Book Synopsis Down to the Waterline by : Sara Warner
Download or read book Down to the Waterline written by Sara Warner and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2010-01-25 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most states the boundary separating public waters from private uplands--the ordinary high water line (OHWL)--is a flashpoint between proponents of either property rights or public-trust protection of our water. Using Florida as a case study, Down to the Waterline is the first book-length analysis of the OHWL doctrine and its legal, technical, and cultural underpinnings. Sara Warner not only covers the historical function of the OHWL but tells how advances in science and our environmental attitudes have led us to a more complex encounter with this ancient boundary. Florida sees a steady influx of new residents who crowd along its extensive coasts and interior shorelines--yet who also demand pristine water resources. The OHWL establishes public access and private ownership limits on some of the state’s most valuable land: in economic terms, waterfront real estate; in ecological terms, marshes and wetlands. Sara Warner brings to life many of the courtroom battles fought over the OHWL through the perspectives of ranchers, outdoors enthusiasts, developers, surveyors, scientists, and policymakers. While explaining the OHWL’s legal and political intricacies, Warner never loses sight of the wonder of herons wading a marsh or a largemouth bass breaking a smooth lake surface. To her the OHWL is not just an ideological battleground; it is a marker of how we see the natural world. What do we think we’re doing when we channel a river or fill a swamp? she asks--for it matters greatly where we focus our attention before invoking the awesome capabilities of technology.

Book Synopsis Down to the waterline by : Milena Contini
Download or read book Down to the waterline written by Milena Contini and published by Delos Digital srl. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Narrativa - racconto lungo (34 pagine) - Una giocatrice professionista di Texas hold 'em ha legato capacità e fortuna all’ascolto di Down to the Waterline, dei Dire Straits. E, in un certo senso, la vita stessa. Il mondo del poker professionale sa essere spietato, corrotto, distruttivo. La felicità è in qualche modo sfuggente, bugiarda: illude e beffa persino i vincenti. In questo racconto, una donna, cresciuta in modo malsano nell’ambiente, vi trova via e ragione di vita. Lo fa alla grande, da protagonista. Ci sguazza, nel fango dorato, finché un qualcosa non spezza il potere del suo irrazionale rituale scaramantico, legato alla canzone “Down to the Waterline”. E il declivio verso la morte si fa verticale... Milena Contini (Milano, 1981), lavora presso l’Università di Verona, collabora con l’Università telematica eCampus e con Universidad de Santiago de Compostela (al progetto internazionale Arprego) e conduce la trasmissione podcast “1000 cose da dire” sulla radio dell’Università di Genova. Insegna letteratura italiana da sedici anni e ha pubblicato quattro monografie nonché numerosi saggi scientifici, articoli letterari per quotidiani e riviste (Tuttosport; E polis; Minerva; Correre nel verde; On the road; Il Pendolo), racconti e poesie. Ha vinto alcuni concorsi letterari, tra i quali il premio Masters of Horror dalla Universal Pictures Italia (2012) e il Premio Poesia Ossi di seppia nel 2019 e nel 2023. Per Delos Digital, ha pubblicato due ebook (Pen, divinità gitana e Child in Time) e cura la collana Immortali.

Download or read book Waterline written by Ross Raisin and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2012-02-07 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Ross Raisin, the highly acclaimed author of Out Backward—a debut novel Colm Tóibín called “compelling, disturbing and often very funny”—comes the moving and story of an ex-shipyard worker’s journey of grief and reclamation in the wake of his wife’s death. Lyrical and resonant, with echoes of Paul Harding’s Tinkers and Anne Enright’s The Gathering, Raisin’s blue collar story of a man’s fractured search for a new beginning is a powerfully voiced, penetratingly personal narrative of alienation and, ultimately, redemption. “Ross Raisin confirms himself as an exciting talent, a unique, gifted, and generous voice, a young writer with a vision broad far beyond his years.” —David Vann, Financial Times
