Download or read book Minor Mythologies as Popular Literature written by Richard Pine and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first single-author study of the genres and roots of popular literature in its relation to film and television, exploring the effects of academic snobbery on the teaching of popular literature. Designed for classroom use by students of literature and film (and their teachers), it offers case studies in quest literature, detective fiction, the status of the outlaw and outsider, and the interdependence of self, other and the uncanny. It challenges perceived notions of, and prejudices against, popular literature, and affirms its connection with the deepest human experiences.

Their significance derives from the richness and variety of experience which they reflect. In three volumes, this Encyclopedia documents the history and development of this body of work and includes original research relating to the literatures of some 50 countries and territories. In more than 1,600 entries written by more than 600 internationally recognized scholars, it explores the effect of the colonial and post-colonial experience on literatures in English worldwide.

Book excerpt: This book is an anthology that deals with the problems and challenges of contemporary Indian education. This volume has 20 essays by eminent persons that discuss child-oriented ideas regarding curricula, books and the learning processes. Many writers in this book speak from a lifetime of engagement with education about issues as varied as globalisation and its impact on education to the importance of educational methods that do not discriminate between boys and girls, the disabled and the non-disabled, the rich and the poor. This book does not aim to merely report current educational research and pertinently, seeks to promote debate on difficult issues confronting us in education.

Download or read book In Time's eye written by Jan Montefiore and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging received opinion and breaking new ground in Kipling scholarship, these essays on Kipling’s attitudes to the First World War, to the culture of Edwardian England, to homosexuality and to Jewishness, bring historical, literary critical and postcolonial approaches to this perennially controversial writer. The Introduction situates the book in the context of Kipling’s changing reputation and of recent Kipling scholarship. After the perspectives of Chesterton (1905), Orwell (1942) and Jarrell (1960), newer contributions address Kipling's approach to the Boer war, his involvement with World War One, his Englishness and the politics of literary quotation. Different aspects of Kipling’s relation to India are explored, including the ‘Mutiny’, Eastern religions, his Indian travel writings and his knowledge of ‘the vernacular’. This collection, whose contributors include Hugh Brogan, Dan Jacobson, Daniel Karlin and Bryan Cheyette, is essential reading for academics and students of Kipling, Victorian and Edwardian English literature and cultural history.

Download or read book Writers of the Indian Diaspora written by Emmanuel S. Nelson and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1993-04-13 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifty-eight writers included in this new sourcebook have roots in India--or, less frequently, in Pakistan, Bangladesh, or Sri Lanka--but represent diverse geographical areas of the Indian Diaspora: from the South Pacific to South America, from the Indian Ocean islands of Mauritius and Singapore to the cities and suburbs of London, New York, Johannesburg, and Toronto. Their lives, works, themes, and critical receptions are examined individually but with attention to two central assumptions: that people of the Indian diaspora share a diasporic consciousness generated by a complex network of historical connections, spiritual affinities, and unifying racial memories, and that this shared sensibility is manifested in the cultural productions of the Indian diasporic communities around the world. These concepts, developed by Professor Nelson in a previous study, Reworlding: The Literature of the Indian Diaspora, are here applied to a larger canvas of writers, including major international figures such as V.S. Naipaul, and Salman Rushdie and talented emerging writers. The writers practice a variety of literary forms and represent a extraordinary diversity of ethnicities, languages, and religious traditions. The women among them contribute the perspective of gender along with the themes of ethnicity, migrancy, and post-coloniality shared with the male writers. Each entry begins with relevant biographical information on the writer, offers an interpretive summary of the major works, provides an overview of the critical reception accorded the corpus and individual productions, and concludes with detailed primary and secondary bibliographies. A brief appendix lists each writer with place of birth and places of domicile. The introduction to the volume, by Professor Nalini Natarajan, discusses several theoretical issues pertinent to Indian diasporic studies. Of value to all literary collections and scholars, this reference work will be of special interest for post-colonial and Commonwealth studies.

Book excerpt: The present volume introduces the reader to a wide range of information about the men and women who won Nobel Prizes. Excerpts from their life histories, from their achievements in the sciences and arts, are interspersed with an array of anecdotes and chance occurrences which make for highly entertaining reading. Between 1901 and 2002, more than seven hundred people were awarded Nobel Prizes. Covering a time span of 102 years, the book contains more than two hundred well-researched sketches - and the notion that if history is the essence of many biographies, the biographies of the Nobel laureates alone can throw a prominent light on the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first.

Download or read book A History of Russian Christianity Vol. II written by Daniel H. Shubin and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2004-09 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Apostle Andrew to the conclusion of Soviet authority in 1990, Daniel Shubin presents the entire history of Christianity in Russia in a 3-volume series. The events, people and politics that forged the earliest traditions of Russian Christianity are presented objectively and intensively, describing the rise and dominance of the Russian Orthodox Church, the many dissenters and sectarian groups that evolved over the centuries (and their persecution), the presence of Catholicism and the influx of Protestantism and Judaism and other minority religions into Russia. The history covers the higher levels of ecclesiastical activity including the involvement of tsars and princes, as well as saints and serfs, and monks and mystics. This, the first volume, deals with the period from Apostle Andrew to the death of Tsar Ivan the Terrible, just prior to the election of the first Russian Patriarch, a period of almost 1600 years.
