Book Synopsis Hidden in Plain View by : Gary Saul Morson
Download or read book Hidden in Plain View written by Gary Saul Morson and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, the formal peculiarities of War and Peace disturbed Russian and Western critics, who attributed both the anomalous structure and the literary power of the book to Tolstoy's "primitive," unruly genius. Using that critical history as a starting point, this volume recaptures the overwhelming sense of strangeness felt by the work's first readers and thereby illuminates Tolstoy's theoretical and narratological concerns. The author demonstrates that the formal peculiarities of War and Peace were deliberate, designed to elude what Tolstoy regarded as the falsifying constraints of all narratives, both novelistic and historical. Developing and challenging the ideas of Mikhail Bakhtin, Morson explores Tolstoy's account of the work's composition in light of various myths of the creative process. He proposes a theory of "creation by potential" that incorporates Tolstoy's main concerns: the "openness" of each historical moment; the role of chance in history and within narrative patterns; and the efficacy of ordinary events, "hidden in plain view," in shaping history and individual psychology. In his reading of Tolstoy, he demonstrates how we read literary works within the "penumbral text" of associated theories of creativity.
Book Synopsis Hidden in Plain View by : Jacqueline L. Tobin
Download or read book Hidden in Plain View written by Jacqueline L. Tobin and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating story of a friendship, a lost tradition, and an incredible discovery, revealing how enslaved men and women made encoded quilts and then used them to navigate their escape on the Underground Railroad. In Hidden in Plain View, historian Jacqueline Tobin and scholar Raymond Dobard offer the first proof that certain quilt patterns, including a prominent one called the Charleston Code, were, in fact, essential tools for escape along the Underground Railroad. In 1993, historian Jacqueline Tobin met African American quilter Ozella Williams amid piles of beautiful handmade quilts in the Old Market Building of Charleston, South Carolina. With the admonition to "write this down," Williams began to describe how slaves made coded quilts and used them to navigate their escape on the Underground Railroad. But just as quickly as she started, Williams stopped, informing Tobin that she would learn the rest when she was "ready." During the three years it took for Williams's narrative to unfold—and as the friendship and trust between the two women grew—Tobin enlisted Raymond Dobard, Ph.D., an art history professor and well-known African American quilter, to help unravel the mystery. Part adventure and part history, Hidden in Plain View traces the origin of the Charleston Code from Africa to the Carolinas, from the low-country island Gullah peoples to free blacks living in the cities of the North, and shows how three people from completely different backgrounds pieced together one amazing American story. With a new afterword. Illlustrations and photographs throughout, including a full-color photo insert.
Book Synopsis Hidden in Plain Sight by : Anoushka Sharma
Download or read book Hidden in Plain Sight written by Anoushka Sharma and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-26 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Next time you draw A picture of me Please don't make it perfect Because when you accept the flaws in me You'll realize how much I'm worth it. Anoushka Sharma avidly believes that poetry is a gift that transcends barriers across cultures, borders and all ages, and most importantly, brings people together. In her first collection of poems and images, Sharma shares lyrical verse penned from her early childhood to present day that explores a variety of themes and subjects that include the beauty found in nature, the comfort of true friendship, the importance of embracing the true self, and the feelings unfelt and emotions unseen as a wanderer without a purpose drifts at sea. Included in her diverse collection are original illustrations that invite others to imagine, contemplate, and reflect on their own lives. Hidden in Plain Sight shares images and reflections from a talented young voice in poetry that embrace the beauty of language and art and prove to all of us that life is just as spectacular as it is complex. "Perspective can change everything. Anoushka's unique artistic perspective provides a thought provoking balm for the soul through a compelling blend of words and images. Her deeply evocative works are a refreshing new look at subjects that are relatable to everyone. Anoushka's powerful creative voice provides inspiration for examining ourselves and the rich experience of discovering the wider world." --Tanya Vail, Art Educator, Fine Arts Department Chair for Chapin School, Princeton, NJ "When my colleague, Dinesh Sharma, asked me to read his daughter's poetry book, I had no idea what I would discover therein. What an unexpected delight I found: a hidden treasure revealed before my eyes! Anoushka Sharma's anthology of poems, Hidden in Plain Sight, represents about five years of profound reflections written between the ages 8-13, in which one can follow the trajectory of her personaI development. This work offers both depth of consciousness and the vibrancy of the sensations and feelings of aliveness as a girl progresses through awakening to both herself and her full spectrum of experiences in life, experiences both within and without. Through the power of word, Anoushka finds her voice and discovers how to take flight in a world she learns can be both exhilarating and challenging, painful and inspiring. It speaks to the ways in which writing and poetry can unlock potential, empower and unleash awareness in today's youth--setting a tremendous example. This little gem is a great read for adults and children alike." --C. Elizabeth Leach, poet and writer, consultant and Principal of Awareness Communications LLC Anoushka Sharma is very mature for her age, and sees things many people don't. I want to keep reading her writing! It's so powerful that she is sharing what is in her heart and mind, and she is inspiring me to think and be more grounded. She is creating so much power through her words and pictures. We need people of her generation to continue to examine, question, and talk about what they see happening around them. She is a strong voice inspiring each of us to connect back to our sense of wonder and confidence to create change. --Stephanie Hon Editor, REEL ROCK Film Tour New York, NYC
Book Synopsis Hidden in Plain Sight by : Cora J. Voyageur
Download or read book Hidden in Plain Sight written by Cora J. Voyageur and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2005-08-20 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Aboriginal people in Canada taught in schools and depicted in the media tends to focus on Aboriginal displacement from native lands and the consequent social and cultural disruptions they have endured. Collectively, they are portrayed as passive victims of European colonization and government policy, and, even when well intentioned, these depictions are demeaning and do little to truly represent the role Aboriginal peoples have played in Canadian life. Hidden in Plain Sight adds another dimension to the story, showing the extraordinary contributions Aboriginal peoples have made - and continue to make - to the Canadian experience. From treaties to contemporary arts and literatures, Aboriginal peoples have helped to define Canada and have worked to secure a place of their own making in Canadian culture. For this volume, editors David R. Newhouse, Cora J. Voyageur, and Daniel J.K. Beavon have brought together leading scholars and other impassioned voices, and together, they give full treatment to the Aboriginal contribution to Canada's intellectual, political, economic, social, historic, and cultural landscapes. Included are profiles of several leading figures such as actor Chief Dan George, artist Norval Morrisseau, author Tomson Highway, activist Anna Mae Pictou Aquash, and politician Phil Fontaine, among others. Canada simply would not be what it is today without these contributions. The first of two volumes, Hidden in Plain Sight is key to understanding and appreciating Canadian society and will be essential reading for generations to come.

This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A startlingly direct, clear look at daily experience, including the graceful changes of direction in consciousness. At once a spiritual journal and a pared down writing that arises, in part, from years of Zen meditation, Lazer’s book continues an American tradition of spiritual accounting: the sacred, the holy, and the mysterious emerging from daily experience. These poems have an inviting simplicity to them. They are poems that reward re-reading. Hank Lazer is the author of thirty books of poetry—most recently Slowly Becoming Awake (N32)—and three volumes of essays. His poems have been translated into French, Chinese, Italian, and Spanish.

Download or read book Dream Logic written by Rodger Kamenetz and published by Presses universitaires de Rouen et du Havre. This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I found that the challenge of precisely recording my dreams over the past fifteen years prompted the need to find a poetic language adequate to the actual encounters in the dream. (This is very different from making a smooth narrative or inter -pretation that ends up obscuring the dream). The challenge is to feel the image and then let the words arise from a deep enough place to respond. I found that certain nights or early mornings as I slipped out of dream-mind to record a dream, I felt an impulse to write a poem instead. And that is how Yonder (my first book in this series of works of mine) and now Dream Logic was born. I was still engaged with images moving in me, but now they were entering the space of the page, or more precisely, the space of the iPhone “notes.” Although awake, I was also still writing in the perfume of the dream, and carried along by that feeling, the language arose often full of imagery and eliding any secular logic. Rodger Kamenetz

Book Synopsis Time, History and the Religious Imaginary in South Asia by : Anne Murphy
Download or read book Time, History and the Religious Imaginary in South Asia written by Anne Murphy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious imaginary is a way of conceiving and structuring the world within the conceptual and imaginative traditions of the religious. Using religious imaginary as a reference, this book analyses temporal ideologies and expressions of historicity in South Asia in the early modern, pre-colonial and early colonial period. Chapters explore the multiple understandings of time and the past that informed the historical imagination in various kinds of literary representations, including historiographical and literary texts, hagiography, and religious canonical literature. The book addresses the contributing forces and comparative implications of the formation of religious and communitarian sensibilities as expressed through the imagination of the past, and suggests how these relate to each other within and across traditions in South Asia. By bringing diverse materials together, this book presents new commonalities and distinctions that inform a larger understanding of how religion and other cultural formations impinge on the concept of temporality, and the representation of it as history.
Book Synopsis The Room under the Willow Tree by : Sophie Loizeau
Download or read book The Room under the Willow Tree written by Sophie Loizeau and published by Presses universitaires de Rouen et du Havre. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Chambre sous le saule, est, selon le mot de son auteure, une sorte de « poésifiction » : forme en prose fragmentée, langue volontairement fluide. Ce qui y est à l'œuvre et que l’auteure nomme le don d’instase est magique, chamanique. C’est quand tout concorde un instant. Réceptivité à la nature, aux bêtes, aux sensations, au surnaturel, à l’esprit du monde; joie d’habiter et recueillement sont les maîtres mots. Mais la contrepartie du don est sombre et cherche à tout gâcher. L’auteure écrit dans cette tension. « C’est du décousu main, et en même temps, dès le titre, prosodique ("La chambre sous le saule"), iambe et anapeste nous sont promis, comme jadis et naguère par “la mort / des amants” », écrit Michel Deguy.
Book Synopsis History and Its Making by : Joe Ross
Download or read book History and Its Making written by Joe Ross and published by Presses universitaires de Rouen et du Havre. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'Histoire comment. Comment l’histoire est un long texte narratif qui constitue le récit d’une vie. Le temps est venu pour le poète de tirer des conclusions, quelques temporaires et transitoires qu’elles puissent être, de ce qu’il a vécu et appris jusqu’à présent. Il met ainsi régulièrement en scène des personnes et des voix venues du passé. Ce texte peut aussi être lu comme une sorte d’art poétique. Le fait de développer son langage spécifique et de prendre la langue à bras-le-corps amène à reconnaître le fait que nous aussi sommes le produit des langues et des vies des autres, de nos traditions. Une langue est un ensemble de vies. Au fil du temps, les littératures archivent de tels ensembles.
