Book excerpt: "Of course, it's great to go to Europe; anyone would jump at the chance, but still--" As the speaker, a bright-eyed girl of sixteen, paused, her companion, slightly younger, continued: "Yes, I know what you mean it doesn't seem just like Irma to go away before school closes. Why, if she misses the finals, she may have to drop from the class next year." "Probably she expects Italy to help her in her history and Latin." "Travelling is all very well," responded the other, "but there's nothing better than regular study. Why, here's Irma coming," she concluded hastily; "she can speak for herself." "You are surely gossiping about me," cried Irma pleasantly, as she approached her two friends seated on the front steps of Gertrude's house. "You have surely been gossiping, for you stopped talking as soon as you saw me, and Lucy looks almost guilty." "Listeners sometimes hear good of themselves," replied Lucy, "but we'll admit we have been wondering how you made up your mind to run away from school. I shouldn't have dared."

Book excerpt: "[...]foot slipped, and instead of helping Irma he fell against her, almost throwing her into the tossing waves. Irma, however, fortunately kept her presence of mind. Not only did she grasp the guard rope quickly, but with her other arm she held Marion firmly. Their feet were wet by the dashing waves, but there was no further damage. They had had a great fright, though Marion seemed to suffer the most. When Irma relaxed her hold, she could walk up to the deck unaided, but Marion had to be supported by a boatman, until Uncle Jim, closely following, drew his arm through his, and so helped him to the deck. Not even Aunt Caroline realized what had happened, when Irma said she must go to her room to change her wet shoes. This she did quickly, as she wished to see all she could of the coast of beautiful St. Michael's.[...]".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between ten thousand and twelve thousand Jews tried to escape Nazi genocide by going into hiding. With the help of Jewish and non-Jewish relatives, friends, or people completely unknown to them, these "U-boats," as they came to be known, dared to lead a life underground. Flight and Concealment brings to light their hidden stories. Deftly weaving together personal accounts with a broader comparative look at the experiences of Jews throughout Germany, historian Susanna Schrafstetter tells the story of the Jews in Munich and Upper Bavaria who fled deportation by going underground. Archival sources and interviews with survivors and with the Germans who aided or exploited them reveal a complex, often intimate story of hope, greed, and sometimes betrayal. Flight and Concealment shows the options and strategies for survival of those in hiding and their helpers, and discusses the ways in which some Germans enriched themselves at the expense of the refugees.

Book excerpt: “The compelling true story of the impassioned love shared between a south Texas woman of Hispanic descent and a German military officer.” —Yvonne Freeman, PhD, professor, Department of Language, Literacy, and Intercultural Studies at the University of Texas at Brownsville After World War II, Peter, a handsome German pilot, met Irma, a beautiful Texan woman of Hispanic descent. It was love at first sight. Their meeting had been prophesized—for Irma by her grandmother and for Peter by a palm reader—and together the couple would create an extraordinary life. Irma’s Story: American by Birth, Hispanic by Choice chronicles Irma’s life and the experiences of the “Texan Gawendas” during their tenure in the German military in Europe and the United States. Though Irma, accepted as an American while in Europe, faced discrimination in her home country and contended with the challenges of being a military wife, Peter’s love and companionship remained constant. In his second book, Peter B. Gawenda, author of The Children’s War, offers readers an insider’s view of the joys that the marriage of two people—from two completely different worlds—can bring. Presenting the dynamics of racial issues against the backdrop of military life, the captivating story of Irma Lozano de Gawenda depicts a fearless, fiercely loyal woman willing to do anything for her family. Written with a passion that has spanned five decades, Irma’s Story celebrates the strength of a once-in-a-lifetime love. “He thrills [readers] again, turning to his narrative gifts and rich trove of memories to tell another story with universal appeal—the power of enduring love.” —Robert Becker, veteran journalist and former international wire news editor, Houston Chronicle

Download or read book Irma Blank written by Milan Archivio Irma Blank and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of drawings by Irma Blank, reproduced in more than three hundred full-color images, with texts by art historians. Linguistic and visual representation intersect in Irma Blank's pastel-colored, script-like Eigenschriften (Self-Writings, 1968–73), a series of drawings considered the starting point of the artist's mature work. The cycle stems from Blank's experience moving to Italy in the 1960s from Germany, where she was born in 1934. No longer surrounded by her native language and unable to express herself through words, this form of writing became a type of escape for Blank. The slender lines of these works are reminiscent of writing, but one that is incomprehensible. Without any specific meaning, the work is pure sensation transmitted from the hand to the surface of the page, from the body to the work. Alongside more than three hundred full-color reproductions of the Eigenschriften works, this volume includes a text by Luca Lo Pinto examining the artistic and historical influences on Blank's cycle of drawings, considered “an exercise of subtraction to reach a basic form of writing,” while Douglas Fogle's essay looks at Blank's work through the lens of artists such as Robert Rauschenberg and John Cage, in terms of a shared practice of repetition, as well as the work of the writers Robert Walser and W. G. Sebald. Contributors Douglas Fogle, Luca Lo Pinto

Book excerpt: The first biography in any language of one of the most celebrated Italian writers of the twentieth century. Born in 1912 to an unconventional family of modest means, Elsa Morante grew up with an independent spirit, a formidable will, and an unshakable commitment to writing. Forced to hide from the Fascists during World War II in a remote mountain hut with her husband, renowned author Alberto Moravia, she re-emerged at war's end to take her place among the premier Italian writers of her day. When Rome was film capital of the world, she counted Pasolini, Visconti, and the young Bertolucci among her circle of friends. She was charismatic, beautiful, and fiercely intelligent; her marriage, a passionate union of literary giants, captivated a nation; her love affairs were intense and often tragic. And until now few Americans have known of this remarkable woman and her powerful, original talent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first full-length study of a once revolutionary visual and linguistic medium Literature has “died” many times—this book tells the story of its death by postcard. Picturing the Postcard looks to this unlikely source to shed light on our collective, modern-day obsession with new media. The postcard, almost unimaginably now, produced at the end of the nineteenth century the same anxieties and hopes that many people think are unique to twenty-first-century social media such as Facebook or Twitter. It promised a newly connected social world accessible to all and threatened the breakdown of authentic social relations and even of language. Arguing that “new media” is as much a discursive object as a material one, and that it is always in dialogue with the media that came before it, Monica Cure reconstructs the postcard’s history through journals, legal documents, and sources from popular culture, analyzing the postcard’s representation in fiction by well-known writers such as E. M. Forster and Edith Wharton and by more obscure writers like Anne Sedgwick and Herbert Flowerdew. Writers deployed uproar over the new medium of the postcard by Anglo-American cultural critics to mirror anxieties about the changing nature of the literary marketplace, which included the new role of women in public life, the appeal of celebrity and the loss of privacy, an increasing dependence on new technologies, and the rise of mass media. Literature kept open the postcard’s possibilities and in the process reimagined what literature could be.

Book excerpt: After Nola Bianca and Luca D’Andrea fall in love in an Italian mountain village, Nola abandons her plans to enter a convent and Luca works toward his dream of going to America. After they marry during Luca’s furlough from his World War I army duties, Nola is determined to live a happy life with her new husband, despite her father’s belief that she should have married Guido, the man who has loved her for years. When the war ends, Luca heads to America, leaving Nola and their two sons behind and with his promise to return in short order unfulfilled. Nola’s love does not waver as she lives for Luca’s letters. As years pass, Guido continues to profess his undying love and Nola is harassed by the village constable. Nola is thrilled when, after six years, Luca comes home. After he is warned he will be arrested by Mussolini’s henchmen the next day, he escapes during the night, leaving Nola pregnant and alone once again. It is not until years later when she and the three children finally arrive in America that Nola discovers everything is not how she imagined. She emerges triumphant in the decision she must make.

This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book encompasses the most challenging topics in earthquake engineering and seismology aiming at seismic risk reduction and reveals the outstanding progresses made in Europe in the past four years. Earthquakes pose a significant threat to countries around the world. But, equipped with the right knowledge and tools, engineers and seismologists can support policy and decision makers and building officials in creating a safer future for all of us. In this paradigm, the Third European Conference on Earthquake Engineering and Seismology (3ECEES) is organized in Bucharest (Romania) in September 2022 by the Romanian Association for Earthquake Engineering, Technical University of Civil Engineering of Bucharest and National Institute for Earth Physics. This outstanding scientific event is the third in a series started in 2006 in Geneva, Switzerland and continued in 2014 in Istanbul, Turkey. The papers included in this book are written by the most prominent contemporary European scholars in the two-folded fields of 3ECEES. The Distinguished Nicholas Ambraseys, along with 28 invited lectures providing the best knowledge in the fields of earthquake engineering and seismology, are shared with the general readership of this book. The book is organized in three parts, as follows: (1) Seismicity, engineering seismology and seismic hazard, (2) Seismic risk assessment and mitigation, and (3) Structural earthquake engineering. The 29 contributed papers for this book are shared among these three parts almost equally. Chapter “The Challenge of the Integrated Seismic Strengthening and Environmental Upgrading of Existing Buildings” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
