Book Synopsis In Her Own Words by : Jill Ker Conway
Download or read book In Her Own Words written by Jill Ker Conway and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-06-29 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jill Ker Conway, author of one of the most celebrated memoirs of recent decades, is also the premier anthologist of women's autobiographical writing. In Her Own Words is Conway's distillation of women's experience from the British Commonwealth world she came from, compared with major themes in women's lives in the United States, which is now her home. In this dazzling collection, we meet twelve remarkable women−from Shirley Chisholm, the West Indian-raised girl who became the first black woman to be elected to the U.S. Congress, to Janet Frame, the brilliant New Zealand writer who overcame involuntary treatment in a mental institution to write one of the archetypal analyses of the post-colonial experience. We learn how the world of politics and the private self intersect in the four offshoots of the old British world, and see how these women have made a difference−by their honesty, by the scale of their struggle for self-knowledge and autonomy, and by the power of their writing.

Book Synopsis In Their Own Words by : Solveig Zempel
Download or read book In Their Own Words written by Solveig Zempel and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2013-11-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most Norwegians in the nineteenth century, America was a remote and exotic place until the first immigrants began to write home. Their letters were among the most valuable, accessible, and reliable sources of information about the new world and the journey to it. For many immigrants, writing letters home was their most cherished opportunity to communicate their thoughts and feelings in their native language. Through vivid translations of letters written to family and friends between 1870 and 1945, In Their Own Words traces the stories of nine Norwegian immigrants: farmer, fisherman, gold miner, politician, unmarried mother, housewife, businessman, railroad worker, contractor. Their common bond was the experience of immigration and acculturation, but their individual experiences were manifested in a wide variety of forms. Solveig Zempel has thoughtfully selected and translated letters rich in personal description and observation to present each writer’s subjective view of historical events. Often focusing on the minutiae of daily life and the feelings of the individual immigrant, the letters form a complex, intimate, and colorful mosaic of the immigrant world. Solveig Zempel is chair of the Norwegian Department at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota.

Book excerpt: This collection of new interviews with twenty-five accomplished female composers substantially advances our knowledge of the work, experiences, compositional approaches, and musical intentions of a diverse group of creative individuals. With personal anecdotes and sometimes surprising intimacy and humor, these wide-ranging conversations represent the diversity of women composing music in the United States from the mid-twentieth century into the twenty-first. The composers work in a variety of genres including classical, jazz, multimedia, or collaborative forms for the stage, film, and video games. Their interviews illuminate questions about the status of women composers in America, the role of women in musical performance and education, the creative process and inspiration, the experiences and qualities that contemporary composers bring to their craft, and balancing creative and personal lives. Candidly sharing their experiences, advice, and views, these vibrant, thoughtful, and creative women open new perspectives on the prospects and possibilities of making music in a changing world.

Book Synopsis In Their Own Words by : Terry Turchie
Download or read book In Their Own Words written by Terry Turchie and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-31 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alliance involving Russia, China, Cuba, and Iran is responsible for the resurrection of the ideology of communism across the globe. Under the guise of democratic socialism, an aggressive campaign is underway inside the United States, to incrementally move America in the same direction. The passionate advocates of democratic socialism include some of the key leaders of the Democratic Party.The underlayment of the ideology of communism is international solidarity. America is not immune from its reach. Democratic leaders view the Resistance movement of the 1970's as one of America's revolutions. They view the Resistance movement of today as its political equivalent. The Weather Underground and Black Panther Party recognized that the overthrow of America's Constitutional Republic would result in a temporary period of socialism-followed by communism. Communism went dormant after the collapse of the former Soviet Union. But years of rule by Vladimir Putin and his worldwide mischief-making, have brought it back to life. Venezuela's rule by so-called socialist Hugo Chavez was bolstered by international solidarity with sympathetic Americans and elected officials who viewed him as another in a long line of benevolent revolutionaries, in the image of Fidel Castro of Cuba. The Venezuelan experiment in democratic socialism was the talk of the liberal elite in America-until it wasn't.The consolidation of power by China's Xi Jinping, China's positions on Taiwan, its aggressive stance on continued economic freedom in Hong Kong, and a resurgence of China's relationship with Cuba and South America are intended to further its global ambitions.The development of relationships with the ayatollahs who rule Iran proves the importance of international solidarity in furthering the ideology of communism. Russia, China, Cuba, and Iran are the modern version of President Ronald Reagan's "axis of evil," from the 1980s. They are looking to establish a home base inside the United States. Communism, Marxism, globalism, have resurrected and reinvented themselves in the pursuit of absolute power. Just like the 1980's, America is the primary target. The spreading of the deceptive message of democratic socialism to a generation that never faced communism and doesn't understand its insidious nature goes unabated. This book connects the past to the present. It offers a plan to protect America's future. The information in it is from real people who stood on the front lines of the Cold War. They were real actors in the 1980's "decade of the spy", and understand the inner workings of Russian, Chinese, Cuban and Iranian espionage in America. 7. This book presents the evidence showing the penetration of the Democratic Party by political revolutionaries promoting democratic socialism, as a cover for the ideology of communism. The proof lies in their own words.
Download or read book Taylor Swift written by Helena Hunt and published by Agate Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get inside the head of one of the most influential musicians of our time with this collection of her most inspiring and revealing quotes. The quotations in this book have been carefully curated from Taylor Swift’s numerous public statements—interviews, op-eds, social media posts, and more. It’s a comprehensive picture of her meteoric rise to the top, her ever-savvy business sense, and her increasingly forthright perspective on the music world and beyond. Swift’s catchy, chart-topping songs have propelled her to become one of the bestselling musicians of all time. But in the more than fifteen years she’s been making music, she has also amassed enough power to buck the norms of an industry notorious for controlling the images of its often very young female artists. She’s stood up for herself and for other artists, championing their rights to fair royalties, and inspired tens of thousands of fans to register to vote. Swift’s achievements have earned her spots on both Forbes’s Most Powerful Women and Time’s 100 Most Influential People lists. Now, for the first time, you can find her most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one place.

Book excerpt: In spreading the message of freedom, equality, and human dignity, Nelson Mandela helped transform not only his own nation, but the entire world. Now his most important speeches are collected in a single volume. From the eve of his imprisonment to his release twenty-seven years later, from his acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize to his election as South Africa's first black president, these speeches span some of the most pivotal moments of Mandela's life and his country's history. Arranged thematically and accompanied by tributes from leading world figures, Mandela's addresses memorably illustrate his lasting commitment to freedom and reconciliation, democracy and development, culture and diversity, and international peace and well-being. The extraordinary power of this volume is in the moving words and intimate tone of Mandela himself, one of the most courageous and articulate men of our time. "There is no easy way to walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountain tops of our desires." -- Nelson Mandela, September 1953
