Book Synopsis Literary San Antonio by : Bryce Milligan
Download or read book Literary San Antonio written by Bryce Milligan and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2019-04-18 with total page 555 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Antonio is often described as the “mother” of Texas cities—the oldest and, for two and a half centuries, the largest city in Texas. To many it is, as novelist Larry McMurtry once famously proclaimed, “the one truly lovely city in the state.” Long recognized as a cultural crossroads between two continents, writers in San Antonio, both native and visiting, have had a significant effect upon the city’s literary and cultural landscape. Novels were being written in the city by the late 1830s. Nineteenth century writers like Frederick Law Olmsted, Sydney Lanier, and O. Henry wrote effusively about San Antonio; Oscar Wilde found here “a thrill of strange pleasure.” Here the Mexican Revolution was called into being, and here were the political and literary origins of the Chicano Movement. Literary San Antonio provides dozens of examples of the interplay and cross-pollination of Anglo and Latino literary forms, ideas, and traditions that led to the creation of a unique borderlands or frontera literature. This city, with its winding, still-sleepy river and its story-shrouded springs; its ancient acequias and missions, now acknowledged as valued “world heritage” sites; its sacred battle grounds and historic military forts and bases; its several unique neighborhoods and barrios that have produced and been celebrated by generations of writers; its rich heritage of heroism and revolutionary passion; its endlessly celebratory ability to revel in its multiracial, multiethnic, multilingual roots and branches . . . this city is a good place to write, to write about, and to wander with a book in hand.

Book Synopsis Applied Theatre: Economies by : Molly Mullen
Download or read book Applied Theatre: Economies written by Molly Mullen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The APPLIED THEATRE series is a major innovation in applied theatre scholarship: each book presents new ways of seeing and critically reflecting on this dynamic and vibrant field. Volumes offer a theoretical framework and introductory survey of the field addressed, combined with a range of case studies illustrating and critically engaging with practice. Series Editors: Sheila Preston and Michael Balfour Applied Theatre: Economies addresses a notoriously problematic area: applied theatre's relationship to the economy and the ways in which socially committed theatre makers fund, finance or otherwise resource their work. Part One addresses longstanding concerns in the field about the effects of economic conditions and funding relationships on applied theatre practice. It considers how applied theatre's relationship with local and global economies can be understood from different theoretical and philosophical perspectives. It also examines a range of ways in which applied theatre can be resourced, identifying key issues and seeking possibilities for theatre makers to sustain their work without undermining their social and artistic values. The international case studies in Part Two give vivid insights into the day-to-day challenges of resourcing applied theatre work in Chile, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, Hong Kong and the US. The authors examine critical issues or points of tension that have arisen in a particular funding relationship or from specific economic activities. Each study also illuminates ways in which applied theatre makers can bring artistic and social justice principles to bear on financial and organizational processes.
Download or read book Tropical Green written by Chip Dameron and published by Wings Press (TX). This book was released on 2005 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Chip Dameron's Tropical Green is rich with images of the South Texas coastal regions. "Buzzards" is a hilarious poem that links car engines ("Gas and sparking, pistons, compression"), buzzards, and student aversion to poetry; "Cicadas" is equally funny although in a quieter way, comparing the "insect mantra" to "a six-legged Buddha, sitting in his tree / with his 17-year smile and thousands of incarnations." Never pretentious or contrived, Dameron's lines are crisp and insightful: "All the Young Swans" describes the "bloody toeboxes" of young ballet dancers who "floated to applause / across a lake of illusion." There is wisdom in these poems: "Instructing My Son" shows a father's awareness that his son has "stopped [listening to him] fifty yards ago," that the boy is moving, "stride for stride, / to the sound of his own breathing." Dameron's endings are particularly strong, often coming as a sharp surprise and causing the poem to reverberate with sudden metaphoric force, "sweet against the bone" and giving "new daylight / the shadow that it needed"--Publisher's website.
